Food was great! Both in terms of taste and portion size. If you like non spicy food and are looking for some great veg starters - don't miss out on the butter garlic mushrooms. They were creamy crispy perfection.

The food was not bad, try avoiding beverages as they are overpriced and not worth it. The ambience is nice. Noodles and Fried Rice are the most commonly available items on the menu. Generally dry noodles should be sufficient for 2, but in case you are ordering the one which includes gravy it might not be sufficient for two people. The service was really poor, they messed up our order and served us non-veg when we specifically asked them for a veg item. Overall average one time experience.
The fried ice cream here should literally be a tourist attraction - it's something I've never had anywhere else and it's so so good. The shanghai fried rice and crispy mayo chicken are also worth trying! Love it!
the food was really good and perfectly priced, the quantity was too goof, must visit
One the best places for food in manipal. Food was really tasty. Although the cost of the food may seem lil high, portion size was more than enough for 2-3 people. Loved the food. Ambience of the restaurant is also really good. Neat and well maintained. Only negative I felt about the restaurant was with the service. They were not so friendly nor did we saw a hint of smile in anyone while taking orders or serving.
Total value for money. Quality with quantity is available at the laughing Buddha. Placed a takeaway order for Sunday. Abhi was very helpful in explaining the menu and helped me make my choice. Order of 2 plates each of 3 items was ready on time. A small but effective way of packing was that the 2 boxes of the each item were packed by masking tape in an identifiable way. Was impressed by the taste and quantity of all items. Will definitely visit to try more.
Excellent place to dine at vidya ratna nagar, Manipal. A short auto ride from the tiger circle will lead you to your destination. Good, vibrant atmosphere. Excellent quality food, and the quantity is just huge. Have ample time during the visit, take time to consume and relish the food. Some recommendations are garlic prawn dry, mint chilly chicken , buddha special noodles, honey honey, chocolate roll. Have a try.
