Over hyped place... Food was just ok ok.. masala Puri was in flowing consistency.. pav bhaji was lacking in taste, litti choka was good but people who are not used to mustard oil can avoid this. Only good was jelebi rabadi.. so two stars for it. No parking available plus it's on first floor ( no lift)people with knee issue should plan and visit Service: Dine in Price per person: ₹200–400 Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 4

Thank you for visiting us and sharing your feedback We’re sorry to hear that some of the dishes didn’t meet your expectations. We’ll definitely review the Pav Bhaji and Masala Puri to ensure consistency and better balance of flavors. Litti Chokha is traditionally made with mustard oil for authenticity, but we understand it may not suit everyone’s palate. We also take note of your point regarding parking and accessibility — these are valid concerns, and while the space limits us right now, we’re actively exploring better solutions. We truly appreciate your honesty, as it helps us improve and serve you better next time. Hope you’ll give us another chance to change your experience — Team Desi Rasoi ( 90427 51955)

We recently visited this place for their Naashta Thali in the morning, and it was a truly delightful experience! The thali included a variety of North Indian breakfast favorites Dhokla, Chole Bhature, Moong Dal Chilla, Kesaria Jalebi, Indori Poha, and Sattu Kachori each one bursting with authentic flavors. Every item had its own unique taste and was prepared to perfection. The Chole Bhature were rich and flavorful, the Moong Dal Chilla was light yet satisfying, and the Jalebi had just the right amount of sweetness with a beautiful kesar aroma. The Poha was exactly how you’d expect it in Indore — soft, mildly spiced, and topped with sev and the Sattu Kachori was a rare treat, full of earthy flavors. The food not only reminded us of home-style cooking but also elevated the entire breakfast experience. It’s a perfect spot for anyone craving authentic and tasty North Indian breakfast. We absolutely loved it. If you’re looking for delicious, satisfying, and authentic naashta, this place is a must-try. Try it once, and you’ll be hooked! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We’re so glad it reminded you of home and at the same time felt special.

Mr Papdi truly excels in presenting authentic North Indian cuisine. The legendary "Litti Chokha" stood out with its perfectly balanced smokiness and earthy flavors, complemented by the freshness of the accompaniments. To round off the meal, the jalebi with rabdi was exceptional — crisp, golden jalebis paired with a luxuriously creamy rabdi that struck the right balance of sweetness without being overwhelming. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates traditional dishes executed with finesse.
