Chef Pradyumna (Prad) Harithsa, his wife Sudiksha, and his childhood friend Ankit Agarwal wanted one place in Bengaluru where you could get coffee, food, and cocktails together. Since they couldn’t find one, they created Circa 11 in Indiranagar.
The space has changed many times before (Nomad Pizza, Plan B, Shanti Sagar), but now it’s a 70-seater restaurant with a clean, modern design by Sudiksha’s sister, architect Lakshmi Kaushik.
Food at Circa 11
Chef Prad and Chef Shubham Kulkarni bring global techniques to local ingredients. The menu changes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and they even have different cocktail menus for each time of day.
Some highlights include:
-
Beetroot Salad – slow-aged and full of flavor
-
Seafood Ceviche – inspired by Japanese curing methods
-
Truffle Bhel & Stuffed Chicken Wings – Indian classics with a twist
-
Zucchini Blossoms & fresh veggies – sourced from local farms
-
Corn Tostada, Lamb Tostada, Octopus Carpaccio – creative plates with global touches
-
Tiramisu with a South Indian spin – mascarpone piped through a chakuli maker

The bar, led by mixologist Anurag Karki, offers unique drinks like:
-
Bellandur Foam – inspired by the city’s frothing lake
-
Error 080 & Strike 5 – bold fruit and rum mixes
-
Yes Chef and Eleven Eleven – adventurous blends with miso, peanut butter, and spices
-
Last Night on 12th Main – a must-try before leaving Indiranagar
