Saravana Bhavan sur Paris

First things first. The place is now called Arya Bhavan, probably the Sarvana Bhawan franchise does not exist here any more. The staff insisted that it’s the same place but the board is changed - probably run by the same people under a different brand. I ordered a rasam, idly - vada and rawa masala dosa. All items were tasty with no room to complain - the chutneys were tasty and service was quick.

recently i visited my friend everything is fine but i ordered masala dosa but the stuffing inside is weird it is full of gas or something weird i hope they will improve. idli vada is perfect.

Pretty authentic pure vegetarian South Indian food with plenty of vegan options and I can confidently say that being from South India myself ! Prices are fair, plenty of seating, very clean setting , good portion sizes and friendly servers . What more do you need? Definitely try their Pongal and idlis other than the masala dosa which everyone has to try ! It’s no longer Saravana Bhavan, it’s Arya Bhavan now- but tasty food continues so what’s in the name ?

Arya Bhavan. The best popular vegetarian restaurant in South India in Paris Gare Du Nord, with the Sangeetha restaurant next door (but crap, abdoul wake up, how dare you!). It is the former Saravana Bhavan which became Arya Bhavan. The cuisine is at the top, that is to say with THE authentic taste, a guaranteed trip. The service remains simple and sometimes a little confusing. Minimal decor, slightly shabby walls, acceptable cleanliness. Noise level too high in case of heavy traffic. And it’s often crowded. Do you really want to eat South Indian? It's here. Prices: count 12 and 15 euros per meal. A little more expensive than the tourista caliente restaurants in the area.

Overall nice. 100% pure vegetarian. Now it is not sarvana bhavan, its new name is Arya bhavan

Tasty food and loved the filter coffee

I recently revisited this South Indian food shop after three years, and it was an experience worth waiting for! From the moment I stepped in, the aroma of spices and freshly prepared dosas transported me straight back to India—something quite rare to find in Paris. It's hard to describe the joy that comes from being greeted by such authentic smells. We ordered a variety of dishes—Masala Dosa, Onion Masala Dosa, Rawa Masala Dosa, and Uttapam—and each one was better than the last. The dosas were perfectly crispy on the outside while soft on the inside, just how they should be. The potato masala filling was flavorful, not too spicy but packed with the perfect blend of spices. The Uttapam, with its soft and fluffy texture, was a delight, especially with the assortment of toppings. But the real highlight of the meal was the chutneys—especially the coconut chutney. I couldn't get enough of it! I ordered extra servings of the coconut chutney four times because it was that good. Fresh, creamy, and bursting with flavor, it complemented each dish perfectly. The tangy tomato chutney and the mildly spiced sambar were excellent too, but the coconut chutney stole the show. In terms of ambiance, the place has a cozy and warm feel, with an air of simplicity that lets the food do the talking. It’s clear that authenticity is a priority here, both in terms of taste and atmosphere. If you're craving real South Indian food in Paris, this is the spot. Whether it's your first time or you're a regular, the flavors here will take you straight to the streets of India. Highly recommended for anyone who loves South Indian cuisine—or for those who want to try it for the first time! 5 stars all the way

This place is now called Arya Bhavan. Too much waiting on the weekends.

Now called ARYA BAHVAN. Never fails to impress. Delcisious South Indian and Sri Lankan options. Also the North Indian. Do try their south and North Indian thalis. Also the curd vada!!

We were here while we were in Paris and revisited again and again. Loved the food totally. Its very near to Gare du Nord station. Service was very quick and the taste was authentic. We loved eating here specially the dosa. Opens at 10.30am until 10.30PM. I will highly recommend to visit it for any meal of the day.
