Agashiye Restaraunt | Ahmedabad

Agashiye, which means “on the terrace” in Gujarati, is a well-known place to have traditional Gujarati food. There are many other great places to eat in the vicinity, but Agashiye is the most upscale. You might just come for the experience. The Agashiye Restaurant is located in the House of MG, a big historic hotel that has been turned into a boutique hotel. UNESCO also named the House of MG a World Heritage City. The restaurant and the area are very beautiful. It’s a real treat to stay at or visit a boutique historic hotel. But the most crucial factor is: how did the food taste? Let me tell you a story.

Points to Remember

  • Just the plate makes the difference between cheap thali and fancy thali.
  • The restaurant is seldom busy, so there’s no need to make a reservation.
  • Take your time eating while sitting down.
  • Prepare your mouth for a lot of sweet and bland things.

Agashiye Restaurant Review

The Agashiye Restaurant supper was the most listless one I’ve ever had. Their two sets of transactions are called Kansa Thali and Silver Thali. Except for a few little nuances, the two dishes are nearly indistinguishable. For instance, silver thali is typically served on a silver platter and may also include a few extra items. I opted for the silver thali since, well, a silver plate could hold more food. The Silver Thali costs a hefty ₹2000/-, or about $27. It was worth it to me to splurge on a real Gujarati Thali.
The restaurant was so empty that I could tell the food wouldn’t be up to standard the second I stepped foot inside. It was my first thought that the high prices might be to blame. Nevertheless, the issue about the food was resolved. The service and ambience of Agashiye Restaurant were top-notch, but the food was subpar. I tried every single dish, including Shrikhand, Mohanthar, Gujarati Kadhi, Dhokla, and Choli Kachori. There was not a single dish that I liked. I may have had a little too much Shrikhand, but that’s all. To further confuse my charges, two additional bottles of water were obtained.
All of the above is based on my personal preferences and the foods I’ve had from different parts of the world. As a foodie, I can tell you that Agashiye Restaurant does not serve true Gujarati Thali. Some of the locals warned me not to come here because of the flavour. Even though Agashiye Restaurant isn’t on my radar again, I’d suggest it to everyone. The old building and Silver Plates alone are worth a visit.
