Aloo kulcha Net +1

“Tonight I was craving something that reminded me of home, so I stopped by for an aloo kulcha. I wasn’t very hungry, so I kept it simple, but it was exactly what I needed. The kulcha was delicious, the raita was fresh and complemented it perfectly, and the service was warm and kind.”
Barfi Net +1

“We ordered many different things from the menu - masala dosa was a memorable dish! The barfi was amazing.”
Bedmi puri Net +1

“I was the only customer in the restaurant when I ordered Bedmi Puri with Sabji and Jalebi. The Bedmi Puri and Sabji were served, but the Jalebi was missing. When I asked about it, I was told it would take more time, even though I could clearly see the chef occupied with other tasks instead of prioritizing a waiting dine-in customer’s order. Considering the premium pricing, I expected a much better level of service. While the food was decent, the lack of attention to customer service and delayed order fulfillment was disappointing.”

Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 5

Try dosa. For breakfast or a light meal, consider the masala dosa; one review rated it among the best the diner had in Dubai.

Ask guidance. If you are unfamiliar with Indian food or avoid spice, ask for recommendations; a non-Indian diner received tailored snack suggestions.

Common Concerns

Showing 2 of 3

Uneven quality

One visit found the sambar and kadi pakora watery, while the pav bhaji arrived cold and needed reheating.

The Bottom Line

Bikanervala is a pure-vegetarian Indian restaurant and sweet shop in Trade Centre, useful for anything from a quick chaat snack to a substantial thali. The reviews give masala dosa, Raj Kachori, chhole bhature and traditional sweets the clearest dish-specific praise, so there is plenty to explore beyond a standard curry meal. Breakfast is a notable draw: diners enjoyed idli, uthappam and a bold masala dosa, while the Executive Thali was described as filling and tasty.

For a lighter visit, the samosas come hot and crisp with mint and tamarind chutneys. The sweets counter is hard to ignore, with barfi, gulab jamun and other mithai mentioned positively. The dining room is generally described as clean, tidy, comfortable and sometimes peaceful.

A Friday visit at 9:30pm had only one other occupied table, which suited someone looking for a quiet meal. Families have also reported a good experience, including children enjoying their visit. Service is often attentive and helpful, especially when diners need menu guidance or milder choices.

Still, quality and speed are not perfectly consistent: one visit found watery sambar and cold pav bhaji, while another involved a missing Jalebi. It is worth checking that a full order arrives as expected.
