What to Avoid (10)

Food 9

Chilly mushrooms Net −1

“Also order Spinach cheese dosa good. And chilly mushrooms that also can be done better.”
Dahi batata puri Net −1

“Except for the Dahi Batata Puri which was just OK and Tawa Pulav, rest all the items were brilliant.”
Hakka mushroom noodles Net −1

“I ordered the Hakka Mushroom Noodles, and unfortunately, this was one of the most disappointing Indo-Chinese dishes I’ve had in a long time. The restaurant is only a couple of minutes away, so the food arrived hot and fresh, meaning the issues had nothing to do with delivery. The noodles lacked the most important characteristic of Hakka noodles—wok hei. It felt like they hadn’t spent enough time in the wok, resulting in a flat, uninspiring taste. There was hardly any ginger or garlic flavor, both of which are essential in a good Hakka noodle. The vegetables still had a nice crunch but were under-seasoned, while the mushrooms were overcooked and rubbery. There was also far too much spring onion, which ended up overpowering the dish instead of complementing it. I understand Prabhu’s is a pure vegetarian restaurant serving South Indian, North Indian, street food, and Indo-Chinese. Based on this experience, however, I feel the Indo-Chinese menu isn’t their strong suit. Authentic Hakka noodles should have bold wok flavor and aromatic seasoning, and this dish fell well short of that.”

Mushroom pulao Net −1

Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 4

Go Early. Weekend dinner can get crowded; visit earlier if you want to avoid the reported waiting period.

Try Breakfast. Saturday breakfast is a strong bet: consider rava masala dosa, idli sambar and filter coffee.

Common Concerns

Showing 2 of 5

Indo-Chinese

The Hakka mushroom noodles were flat and under-seasoned, with rubbery mushrooms and excessive spring onion.

Thin Sides

Several reviews found the sambar or chutney too watery or said the masala dosa accompaniments need improvement.

LOCAL

The Bottom Line

Prabhu's Pure Veg Restaurant in Al Raffa is a useful choice when a group wants Indian vegetarian food without sticking to one regional style. Breakfast is a clear strength: masala dosa, idli, vada sambar and filter coffee all receive positive mentions, and the rava masala dosa with three chutneys also made a good impression. There is plenty beyond the breakfast menu.

Reviewers praise the royal thali, Punjabi dishes such as daal makhni, mushroom-based curries, masala papad and street-food favourites including vada pav and Bangalore-style masala puri. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating, is described as clean, and handles delivery well, with food arriving hot and packaging keeping it secure. A few details are worth knowing.

Weekend dinner can mean a wait of around 20 minutes, while road parking behind the restaurant is more dependable than finding a space directly outside. Service is generally quick, though one review felt the serving staff needed more training. The main caution is consistency outside the restaurant’s strongest dishes.

Sambar and chutney have sometimes been watery, one tandoor roti was described as unusually small, and a recent Hakka mushroom noodles order lacked wok flavour. Prices also drew mixed reactions, so check the menu before ordering a larger meal.
