A Taste of Tradition with a Modern Twist: Discover Malni Bistro & Cafe

Nestled in the heart of Sambalpur, Malni Bistro & Café has been a cherished landmark since 1958, celebrated for its authentic South Indian cuisine and beloved dosas. After a thoughtful transformation, we’re excited to honour our legacy with a fresh vision, blending traditional roots with global influences.

Our reimagined menu combines classic South Indian dishes with vibrant flavours from across India and beyond, like Indo-Chinese, Mediterranean, and Southeast Asian specialties. Enjoy bold, inventive dishes like Meen Pollichathu, Chettinad Curry, Curd Rice, and Shish Tawook, alongside health-conscious options that make every meal both flavorful and mindful.

At Malni Bistro & Café, we celebrate our heritage while embracing the diverse tastes of today.
