Mysuru’s ‘Old Original’ Vinayaka Mylari dosa’s Bengaluru restaurant, inaugurated by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, is drawing a long line of customers. We join them to try the signature soft masala dosa with white butter and green sagu
A legend from Mysuru, the Old Original Vinayaka Mylari, now has an outlet in Bengaluru’s Indiranagar. Since 1938, the humble restaurant has been serving their signature masala dosas to celebrities and noted politicians. The soft dosa, the home-made white butter and the signature green sagu, is what makes the dosa unique.

“My mother-in-law’s mother-in-law started the restaurant in 1938. I am the third generation owner, and my son is the fourth generation. We have been following the same recipe in the family for all these years. The sagu is our own recipe,” says Usha Rani. “People have been asking us to open a branch in Bengaluru for years. But we did not. We were happy in Mysuru. My son wanted to expand the brand’s footprint. That’s why we have started it in the city now.”
The Bengaluru outlet, located on 80 Feet Road is already drawing a crowd. It was inaugurated by Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on January 23, 2026. The CM is a fan of the dosa, and in May 2024 he had visited the Mysuru outlet and posted on X, “Today morning, while having breakfast at Mylari Hotel in Mysore, I remembered my college days. All my unforgettable memories of life are intertwined with Mysore. Mysore is not just my hometown but the place that gave me life. Even when physically far away, the memories of Mysore always remain close to my heart. The debt to this soil is very great, but in front of it, we are small.”
