Umesh Refreshments UDP - South Indian restaurant in Bengaluru - Bengaluru Urban, India

Overall okay, not worth the hype. Would prefer Rameshwaram on this one. Looked a little less hygienic. Felt too much ghee in the dosa and extra spicy coconut chutney which was a little bit buzzkill for us.

Chitranna is superb, Raagi Rotti and Akki Rotti are good, but dosas are average as too much ghee in dosas overpowers everything.

One of the best dose's in town and also remember to carry the cash with you as this place will not accept upi or card

One of the 3 outlets on the Railway parallel lane on Kumara Park. They are known for the South Indian breakfast items. The outlet only accepts cash and no UPI payments. Did not find any menu or rate cards that could be visibly available. The cashier seemed very unfriendly. Quite a crowd in the weekend but the service was quick. The Idlis were served with 2 types of chutneys, one prepared with green chilli and another with red. The serving was not generous enough though. The texture of the Idlis was a bit gooey but the taste was fine. Preferred the green chutney to the red. The masala dosa was smeared with ghee which though enhanced the taste but overshadowed the actual taste of the Dosa itself. This was again served with 2 types of chutneys. The texture of the Dosa was a bit chewy. The bath masala dosa was stuffed with lemon rice. Though the texture (obviously) remains the same, the combo with the rice was good. The aloo palya in the masala dosa or the bath masala dosa was very little but felt just enough. The onion pudi dosa was fine but the pudi was a tad sweet for my liking. The usage of onion could have been a bit more generous in the onion dosa. The coffee was too light but the taste was alright. The price is a bit on the higher side due to the usage of ghee. There's seating available on the 1st floor if you prefer to sit and eat the food after collecting it from the counter. Else most prefer to stand out on the footpath and eat. Parking for 2 or 4 wheelers are on the roadside.

One of the old hotel in the town serving their signature dish Dosa Small place where one has to stand and eat outside. Wide menu gives us options but one should not miss their pudi idly and masala dosa The hot idly served with ghee and pudi is soft which melts and the dosa is top class, also try Pongal and kesari bath. Staff are quick and serves with smile. The dustbins and the tray are placed outside where one eats make a bit awkward.

I recently dined at Umesh Refreshments and tried their Idly and Pakoda. The food was indeed delicious. The Idly was soft and fluffy, and the Pakoda had a perfect crispiness, making it a satisfying snack. However, I was disappointed to find out that they do not accept UPI and other digital payment methods.

Good place for quick bite. May be one of the fine place in this surrounding for Tiffin items. Idly is good, but dosa's are full of ghee. Coffee was good. Gets crowded sometime and it could be difficult to stand and eat aaramse. The cashiers are full off attitude, it's good if they behave well with customers.

Place is too crowded. Busy on weekends for great morning breakfast. Bath masala dosa & thuppae are must try. Podi idli and dosa is also good. Two types of chutneys are served. There's a great menu. But the behaviour of the staff and the cashier is a bit mean. Overall a good breakfast joint in Bangalore.
