Authentic, Delicious Kathiyawadi Cuisine at Shree Khodiyar Dhaba in Pune
Hello LG foodies, rejoice!
Pune’s culinary scene just got a whole lot spicier (and creamier) with the arrival of Shree Khodiyar Kathiawadi Dhaba.
This brand-new restaurant promises an authentic taste of Kathiawar, Gujarat’s heart, right in your city. It is a large restaurant chain based in Bharuch, Gujarat. This is there first branch in Pune.Photo 01: Exterior facade and directional signage for customer guidance.

Imagine piping hot rotlas (rotis) paired with a variety of lip-smacking curries, each bursting with the distinct flavors of Kathiawadi food. From the tangy Sev Tameta to the rich Kadai Paneer, Shree Khodiyar Dhaba promises a delicious culinary journey.
But wait, there is more! Vegetarians will be spoiled for choice with an extensive menu that includes delectable dals, fragrant rice dishes, and a variety of seasonal vegetables cooked to perfection in traditional Kathiyawadi style. The different types of papads, particularly the Gujarati-style khicha papad, were fantastic. Do not forget to finish your meal with traditional Gujarati desserts such as Matho (shrikhand, also known as sweet yogurt), hot Gulab Jamun, and cold sweet lassi.

Above all, you will be greeted by a variety of delicious, sweet and sour, spicy pickles, as well as a bowl of jaggery and peanuts on your table. OMG! It was so delicious, we almost forgot we had ordered the main course!

When you leave, you will notice a lot of mouthwash and “off-the-shelf” items, like the homemade pickles you tried on the table. I love their display of mouth-freshers, reminding me of our playful childhood.
