Toran Dining Hall

The experience was overall good dining at this dining hall. But since the Gujarati Thali is priced at ₹410 the options could have been more. The options offered are good no issues at all but looking at the price and compared to other Thali options at Ahmedabad the quantity of items needs to increase. The taste was on the sweeter side, the service was top notch just the price to dining experience needs to improve. Special appreciation to the Chocolate Basundi which they offered.

Toran dining hall offers Gujarati thali, which includes puri/roti/bhakhri, kathol/pulses, punjabi sabji, 2 gujarati sabji, dal/kadhi, rice, 2 sweets dry and liquid, 2 farshans, chhaas, papad, salad. Food is good and service is also quick. There is adequate parking facility, however, it might get difficult during rush hours.

This place has been serving Gujarati Thali since past many decades and have been our family’s go to place whenever we want to have Gujarati Thali. But last few visits after renovations, were under par.

We visited this Gujarati restaurant today, which serves only one item — a Gujarati thali priced at ₹430. We were politely asked to wait for some time, and we did so without any issue. However, once our turn came and the food was served, we were quite surprised — unfortunately not in a positive way. Our expectations were high considering the price of the thali, but the overall experience fell far below what we anticipated. The food quality across items was average at best. Some sabzis tasted no different than what you’d get in a very ordinary restaurant. The sweets and farsan were also very basic and lacked the richness or uniqueness one would expect at this price point. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. Even in terms of interiors and ambience, there are several nearby restaurants offering much better environment, cooling, and food quality — all at lower prices. For ₹430, we truly expected a more refined, flavourful, and memorable Gujarati thali.

I visited this restaurant for the second time during lunch hours, and the unlimited Gujarati Thali was excellent. They serve a wide variety of vegetarian dishes, along with different types of breads and rice, and two sweets. Every item is refilled as many times as you wish. The food is delicious, the seating arrangement is comfortable, and the restaurant maintains a high level of cleanliness. If they could improve the restroom facilities by providing separate toilets for men and women and maintaining better hygiene, the experience would be perfect.

As a strict non vegetarian, I wasn't sure what to expect, but Toran was a revelation. After a long day without a proper meal, this dinner was exactly what we needed. ​I have never eaten so much in my life, I honestly couldn't find a single dish I didn't love. If you are in Ahmedabad, this is an absolute must visit. You won't miss the meat for a second!

I firstly thank the management of Toran dining hall for allowing me to start my thali lunch even at 3:05pm. I was traveling all the way from Mumbai and train was late so arrived late at Toran for lunch. I would advice all that don't reach late as you might require minimum half an hour to enjoy the whole meal here. The good was top notch and the serving team also very sweet who tirelessly kept coming to refill and made every effort to provide each item in thali for number of times. I had one of the best Gujarati Kathiyawadi thali in Ahmedabad at Toran dining hall. If you have a good appetite this is the place for you I assure. God bless for them for the costa at which they provide multiple food items. Also they have ample parking space. Very approachable from the old high court metro station.

During my recent visit to Ahmedabad, we were looking for a place to enjoy authentic Gujarati thali meals, and we found Toran Restaurant. It was an amazing experience! The restaurant has a great ambiance, which immediately made us feel comfortable. They serve only thali meals during lunchtime, and the variety of dishes is incredible. From puris, chapatis, and doklas to several curries, sweets, and other items, the spread seemed endless! The staff kept serving more as soon as we finished something, allowing us to eat as much as we wanted. Many of the curries had a slightly sweet taste, which is typical of Gujarati cuisine. The meal ended with basmati rice, making it a completely satisfying experience. The quality of every dish was excellent, and the service was prompt and friendly. For anyone who loves authentic Gujarati food and enjoys a high-class vegetarian meal, I highly recommend Toran Restaurant. The cost for two people was around ₹800, which is very reasonable considering the location, ambiance, and the overall experience. It was a unique and memorable lunch, and I would definitely visit again!
