Govinda's

This place is very good for hygienic, peaceful, and family friendly lunch/dining experience. Honestly this branch is very expensive as compared to other of its branches maybe because of its posh locality. You may look at my photographs and snaps to get a quick idea of the vibe of the place.

Excellent taste, quick service. Portions also good... Very nice ambience, also have sweet shop here
