Restaurants around Kodihalli & Jeevan Bhima Nagar, Bangalore - Update

More restaurants came up in last few months, and one of them seems to be hurting the others' business quite badly. So, thought of giving an update.

- Rahham's, Kodihalli Main Rd-Old Airport Rd Jn. - good food, very reasonable price for the quantity & quality, definitely above average, not so great service probably because of the huge number of customers they've to handle.

- Caffette, Old Airport Rd, opposite Kodihalli bus stop (referring to the stop on the side where buses go "towards" Marathahalli) - good ambiance, extensive menu having almost all cuisines, above average food, reasonable prices, service good too.

- Nandhini, Indranagar 100 ft Rd-Old Airport Rd Jn. - don't know why I missed this last time - any bangalorean would know about this Andhra cuisine restaurant.

- Mainland China, beside Nandini - don't know why I missed this too - any bangalorean would know about this Chinese chain of hotels/restaurants.

- Spicy Hub, Jeevan Bhima Nagar opp IBP Petrol pump - not recommended for veggies, inexpensive homely food.

- Hotel Empire, Indranagar 80 ft Rd. beside BSNL Exchange - the killer restaurant, traffic to this place is absolutely unimaginable, people waiting for an hour to have a seat, people making advance reservations, coming from far off places, about 15-20 cars parked around and several 2-wheelers, huge number of parcels going out, waiters running around delivering & taking orders... But is the restaurant worth going to? I didn't think so. It's just too hyped up and isn't really that great. Would be best to avoid in the weekends. Expensive & delayed service because of the rush. Anyways, all the traffic to other nearby restaurants seemed to have diverted here. I'm guessing some restaurants around here will close down soon if this continues.
