Achman, Bhagwan Talkies
13 people recommend, 1 warns against itvia r/Agra16 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Achman at Bhagwan Talkies is a pure vegetarian, mid-priced family restaurant that many people recommend, with one diner, who ate there long ago and does not know how the food is now, praising dishes like malai kofta, navratan curry and kashmiri dum aloo while disliking the chickpeas curry, and another, a longtime fan of the restaurant, praising its chana masala and veg bomb. One longtime customer says the taste has stayed consistent over two decades, though a couple of commenters feel quality has slipped a little and one diner separately warns that the place feels like an old bar with a negative vibe and serves below-average food, and also reports being embarrassed in front of guests on a first visit. One visitor finds the stuck-in-the-2000s ambience nostalgic, like stepping back into childhood, though the same person cautions that the food can be a gamble at times.
