Best South Indian in Matunga! 2012-03-28
Each Matunga restaurant has its own set of loyal customers. I swear by Sharda's sambar and kadhi vada. I have tried others but have always come back to this restaurant. I have been a regular to this place for over 10 years and they still manage to keep their flavors consistent. Highly recommended! -

SHARDA BHAVAN 2012-03-20
Nothing beats a good South Indian breakfast. Crisp dosas with spicy coconut chutni & boiling hot sambhar coupled with a steel tumbler of piping hot filter coffee. Matunga is well known for its South Indian food. The Mani's & Madras Cafes are well etched in the travel guides of India. But do look out for an older eatery just outside Matunga station. This place is not for snobs who worry about the quality of the tables and the fans but for anyone who just loves great South Indian food at a great price. Like me:)

Excellent Kadi Wada 2011-11-13
This place has good authentic South Indian food. Though I have only been here once, my father has been eating here since his college days. The dosa is good here with decent sambar and chutney. But what I loved is the Kadi wada, it's simply awesome.
The staff here is very good and always has a smile on their faces. -

Old is gold 2011-09-20
First my dad, then my elder brother and then I, this restaurant runs like a legacy in my house....the waiters and the owners still know my dad and my brother so it always feels great, not at all expensive and tasty food. but mind it by 6pm things start getting over and they have a unique menu board, as things food items get over they remove the board out to imply its no more available...coffee is a must have and also the bonda! -

Simply beautiful and Amazing food 2011-08-24
It is my fav restaurant for south -indian food ,I went here once after my class and after that there was no stopping ,i went everyday except on the day that it is closed.
All the Dosas are really amazing but the highlight is the PINEAPPLE SHIRA you cannot afford to miss it under any circumstances it is truly amazing,But they make it only on specific days so check for availability otherwise they have some other shiras which are also pretty good.
Price is very affordable -

Not so great 2010-10-05
Went to this place this morning, a default decision, taken because Mani's lunch home was too crowded. We had idlis, upma, masala dosa, medu vada, and a plain dosa topped by four filter coffees.
The ambience is great, open with 1950's fans well polished and massive brown regulators to accompany them. First I thought the joint was Tamilian as Bhavan, is usually a Tamilian appellation.
The idlis were decent, the vada was undercooked and non spicy, while the upma was too fine and oily. It is not really authentic, the food is actually Udupi, the sambhar and the chutney make that clear. ... read more -

Fingerlickin' Southie Food! 2009-12-12
Located bang opposite matunga railway station. From the exterior it looks like a dingy apartment converted into a lodge for the number of times i have passed it and not realized it was pearl amongst the gems for southie food in matunga! Personally, this is my favorite southie restaurant here and perhaps in the whole of mumbai.
Things that are generally on my platter when i visit this place is:
1)Idli-Sambhar: It's priced at just Rs 16 but one of the best for those craving for some real healthy food. The idlis are so soft that it would actually melt in your mouth,they taste even better when... read more -

Piping hot food 2009-10-21
Mornings are the best time to pay a visit there (but Sunday mornings can be a nightmare). The Upma is excellent and so is their chutney. Worth a visit any day. -

Taste, Value, Hygiene, Service. 2008-10-10
One of the oldest restaurants of Matunga, Sharda Bhavan still manages to stay a notch above the rest of Matunga's eateries in matters of hygiene, quality and taste.
The idlis and Vadas are as fresh and delicious as they can be, the sambar and chutney awesome, so are the dosas and uttapams. My personal favourite though is the Kadi Vada, the best i ever had in a restaurant in Mumbai. Good corteous staff provides prompt service.
Dont forget to round up the meal with a fresh filter kaapi(coffee). -

Authentic, authentic, authentic 2008-09-13
Sarda Bhuvan is one place one are bound to come happy out of (if you like authentic South Indian). You see a lot of people go to snazzy south indian places eating Sizzler Dosa and God knows what else and then compare them with authentic restaurants like Sarda bhuvan.
Anyway, Sarda Bhuvan is one the most authentic places I have been too. The variety is strictly limited to the variety of an average South Indian family's kitchen. The place is clean with modest ambience.
Overall rating: 4 on 5 -
