The best food I ever had AND the people are fantastic! - Edit
We went everyday for 2 weeks, at least 2 times a day, first place we ate these kinds of Indian food. Supertasty, and no problem to accomedate our Vegan requests, just have to ask for no milk and no butter, all their cake are with butter btw, but you will find vegan cake in KL, I promise!
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options SUPERTASTY! !!, Samosa is faaaantastiiic , veggie manchurian is even Moore faaaantastiiic! !!

Not particularly special, yet expensive - Edit
I am puzzled by reviews that claim Sangeetha is inexpensive. My first trip I had a Jain thali, which was RM25. That is in the same price range as set meals at Simple Life (23-28). The second trip I had naan channa masala for 12.50 - same price as Simple Life roti prata with curry. But almost all reviews of Simple Life state that it is rather expensive, while these reviews claim that Sangeetha is inexpensive!
Read moreYet Simple Life food stands out for its healthy preparation (less salt and oil), so there is some basis for the price. Sangeetha fare is what you typically find at Indian eateries: far too much salt. Moreover, I found the taste also to be no more than typical for Indian food in Malaysia. And finally, as other reviewers have mentioned, it is very busy - almost frantic - certainly not the most relaxing place to eat.
The selling point for me was that it was just around the corner from my hotel, and was open when every other vege eatery was closed. But that convenience came at a price.
Pros: Open late, Variety of dishes to choose from
Cons: Rather expensive, Hectic atmosphere, Limited vegan options

Heavenly Feast - Edit
Went for a Sunday lunch feast, it was quite busy. Easy to find among all the other veg restaurants on the street. Smart, clean interior.
Read moreWe ordered the huge Punjabi meal set (a large thali) and the mini Tiffin (a mini dosa plus other south Indian dishes). They were both so delicious and came with dessert.
Definitely returning.
Food plus 3 drinks cost RM42.
Pros: Taste, Portion Size, Clean And Smart
Cons: To Much Choice!

Disappointed - Edit
I went there three times. I was very happy of the food quality of each meal, and I didn't mind the service quite cold. However, the last time I went there they made a mistake in my order (they gave me a naan instead of a roti parotha). When I kindly ask them to change, the waiter told me that what I had in my plate was a roti. I felt he was fooling with me, but I didn't tell anything. I checked my bill in the end : they charged me a naan. I felt very angry, as it was clear that the waiter wasn't respectful at all and didn't mind making a fool of a tourist.
Read morePros: Good food, Good value for money
Cons: Bad service, Air conditionner is too cold

"the waiter told me that what I had in my plate was a roti. I felt he was fooling with me..."
Read moreIt is possible that he was being sincere, with no disrespect intended, and that this was a case of language miscommunication. In Malay, "roti" is the word for "bread" - any bread. Since naan is a bread, he could earnestly say the naan is a roti if it was not clear to him exactly what was expected.

High quality South Indian and North Indian food - Edit
Delicious Indian food at good price, and this place offers both South Indian and North Indian food, all equally tasty.
Read moreWe ordered three different thalis. My mum ordered the Jain one (huge - two curries, khadi, salad, naan, jeera rice), my dad ordered a Punjabi/North Indian one (few different kinds of rice and curries), and I had one of the basic South Indian ones. They were all delicious, served quickly, huge portions so one thali is probably enough for two people.
A lot of the dishes use ghee so if you are vegan, check before ordering.
Place is quite busy, but kept very clean.
Pros: V tasty food, Good for North and South Indian, Fast
Cons: Busy, Watch out for ghee (in a lot of items)

The best place on the street - Edit
This is (in my opinion) the best of the four Indian vegetarian restaurants on this street. It's nicely decorated, tranquil, clean and air-conditioned, with friendly workers. Prices are only slightly more than Bakti Woodlands and Lakshmi Vilas, and less than Sri Lakshmi Narayana Bhavan. They seemed to understand vegan, when I explained 'no milk, no butter, no cheese' and recommended the mini tiffin. This meal includes a small dosa (thin pancake) with four curries, a tasty donut type thing and a dessert - a bit like a thali. It was extremely delicious and filling and only cost RM 10. They also have a large range of immaculately presented sweets (although most contain dairy).
Read morePros: Delicious, Nice atmosphere
Cons: Need more clarity on vegan options

Disappointed - But great if you really love onion - Edit
We didn't really like this place. There were too many onions in everything and the service was sub standard.
Read moreThe dosa we ordered was massive though. If unrolled, it would take up nearly half the table. Unfortunately the filling was potato and onion, with the onion overpowering every other spice.

Best Indian Vegetarian Restaurant - Edit
sangeetha's serves both north and south indian cousine. I recently dined there, they serve tasty hot food, we really liked their kadai paneer(north indian cheese curry) onion vadai, (So crispy and yummy). This restaurant is "must try" for vegetarian residents and visitors. Has a good ambiance as well.
Read morePros: Excellent Food, Friendly staff
Cons: dodgy entrance

Nice - Edit
This is a better than average South Indian restaurant. It also a smattering of North Indian dishes, but as is the rule for all Indian restaurants, avoid South Indian dishes in North Indian restaurants and vice versa. The two are poles apart, and no chef can do justice to both in the same kitchen at the same time.
Read moreThe place is airconditioned, unlike the other similar restaurants on the same block, clean and spacious. Food is uniformly authentic, delicious and reasonable.
Pros: Authentic, Value
