Rajanna Military Hotel Jayanagar Bengaluru

Among the military hotels in Jayanagar, Ranganna Military Hotel and Shivaji Military Hotel have been the most popular – but over the years as the crowds have gone up, the food taste has dropped from “great to mediocre” and the waiting time for a seat have reached nothing less than 30-45 mins (on weekends during lunch time).
Fret not, for there is a new king of Military hotels in JayanagarRajanna Military Hotel 😬

Without a legacy baggage, Rajanna Military Hotel doles out delicious non-vegetarian (chicken and mutton only – no beef and pork) fare of biryanis, non-veg meals, kaal soup, assortment of chicken dishes, mutton kheema, thale (head) mutton, boti, egg curry and even a non-veg Sunday breakfast.
Their nati kolli/chicken dishes are a league above anything one can taste in Bengaluru.

What to eat:

  • Meals: Combination of the best curry along with biryani rice, white rice and mudde.
    • Choose between chicken, mutton or nati kolli/chicken meals
  • Biryani: Typical military style biryani paired with spicy sherwa (chicken-based curry) and curd raitha
    • The nati chicken biryani is the best
    • Choose between chicken, mutton, egg, nati kolli
  • Nati Chicken Fry: the best chicken fry in Bengaluru
  • Kaal Soup: absolutely delicious and a great starter before the meal ( one can order only the soup without the leg )
  • Parota and Egg masala: for the veg/egg lovers, their egg masala is a master-class, supremely delicious
  • Kheema Gojju: honestly I am not a mutton guy, but this one won me over and left the mutton fans drooling – the Kheema Gojju tastes best with the parota
