Podi dosa

I have tried this place more than a couple of times. But honestly every time i think this would get any better, no there is none. I really love the dosa’s here but rest everything is just ok. We tried their signature podi dosa - ulli karam dosa was my most favorite. And also tried- dindigal thalapakatty biryani( too oily) Manchurian fried rice- the rice was only dipped in the sauce no Manchuria in it. Also their apricot delight worst one I’ve ever had. Asked if they can cancel it because it was not fresh and bland. But the team not accountable at all. Three stars were only for their dosa. And service was very rude. They are not at all accountable for the wrong orders.

The restaurant offers a variety of different dishes. Meat dishes, vegetarian, vegan... I like the variety but my favorites are still the Dosa`s. Its a favorite so sometimes there is a wait. The service is not the greatest, but the food is good.

Favorite new spot in Artesia, with killer veg & non veg options! From the outside it gives hole in the wall strip mall South Indian cafe vibes. I’d heard about the amazing food through word of mouth and can confirm it’s all that, and some! They literally have multiple menus distinguished by dosa options - indo Chinese - & desserts/drinks. Their lamb, butter chicken, and karahi paneer were 10/10, chef’s kiss. Flavorful, spicy and very rich. Masala dosa hit the spot! Breads wise, garlic naan & paneer kulcha didn’t disappoint, but heads up about the kulcha: it’s fully loaded with spices, and not the plain kind you may have experienced elsewhere. Portions are very generous, it’s definitely family style. We went for lunch and didn’t need dinner - we were that full and satisfied. Tip: Go hungry and ready for a heavy, spot hitting deliciousness. Kudos to the chefs and hard working staff!

I live in Dallas, TX. Generally I love non-veg pickles, especially mutton/goat. My aunt visiting from LA bought mutton and chicken pickles from here and after tasting ‘em I have to say its the best taste with correct amount of spices and spiciness. Especially mutton pickle was my favourite. Its second day and the pickle jar is already half done. I highly recommend these pickles for others to try out. Will bring some stuff from here when I visit.

Horrible service. There were some unchewable items in the food which shouldn’t be there. Staff was unapologetic, made excuses, refused to take it off the bill despite returning the item. Service is awful. It is worst managed restaurant.

Masala dosa we ordered is amazing. Hakka noodles are tasty though it missed hint of salt. Others were not bad

We tried the butter chicken, chicken butter masala, and veg Manchurian. While the chicken biryani was decent, the rest of the food was disappointing and didn’t meet our expectations. We drove nearly 50 minutes to get here. A/C wasn’t working it was 86 degrees outside and somehow even hotter inside. Honestly, this was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had in America.

I’ve visited this restaurant more times than I can count and have never been disappointed with their food. Located in a plaza, there are parking spots available, though during weekends or busy hours, it fills up quickly. The restaurant is on the smaller side, with a decent seating capacity, but it fills up fast on weekends, leading to longer wait times. The service staff is friendly, but during peak times, the service can feel slow or inattentive. As the name suggests, this place is great for trying dosa. The dosas are thick, the portions are huge (easily enough for one person), and the prices are affordable. The taste is exemplary. They’re known for their large portions, and while their biryani is good, we usually stick with their dosas. Be careful not to underestimate the portion size—I’ve seen people order multiple dishes only to realize it’s more than enough to share. Their mutton keema curry dosa is a standout, with the keema packed full of flavor. If you’re in the area or looking for a spot with good, filling food, this place is worth a visit—just be prepared for potential wait times and slower service during busy periods.

Wow. I tried Podi Dosa today and I genuinely thought it was the best dosa I've had so far. I'm so glad I stopped by after studying at the Cerritos Library. It was busy and I can definitely see why now. Service was friendly and the food came out in a timely manner. I ordered the Podi Dosa to go and it was delicious. It contained potatoes, onions, and spices - along with a variety of chutneys. The spice was not too intense for me! I'm not sure which chutney was which but they were all amazing. Flavors and textures were on point. Both the dosa and the mango lassi were delicious. I will be back for more soon!

We visited just at the start of the lunch hour. We had been impressed with their dosa and non- veg dishes during our visits over the past two years. We ordered the masala dosa which comes a selection of chutneys we love, served in generous proportions and the kulfi falooda. The kulfi falooda was switched to strawberry falooda without asking with unnecessary additions of jelly and boba pcs. It was ok; just not what we had ordered. The saddest part refusal to offer us the option to take home the leftover chutneys unless we also took the leftover dosa which was mot much (???) We decided if that was the case we would take the leftover dosa too. The chutneys were not fitting in the tiny 3 sauce containers - by this time I was already very disappointed in this 'lack of service' ' from the restaurant main server a young lady. Then, to make matters worse they repeatedly refused to provide a take out box! What kind of restaurant are they running? They prefer to throw away the chutneys? What a waste of their best offering! Never ever has a restaurant refused a take out box in our 35+ years in USA. They had takeout boxes aplenty on a side table by the cashier counter. I had to take a stand and demand a takeout box! This is not a place worth visiting if they are so inhospitable and wasteful of the food they prepare. This is not a part of the Indian culture. Left a bad taste in my mouth and also lead me to wonder why they would have such a crazy policy. Force customers to abandon food they had paid for and to top it, try to save money by refusing one take out box? Crazy is as crazy does.

1 Star Visited: May 15 at 12:00 PM Party of 5 I recently visited Podi with clients visiting from Mumbai who were craving South Indian food. Despite my hesitation, we went at their request. Unfortunately, our experience was a complete disappointment from start to finish. Although the restaurant was quiet, it took 15 minutes for the host to take our drink and appetizer order. When we asked questions about portion sizes and popular items, the host mumbled her responses under her breath, avoided eye contact, and seemed generally uninterested in helping -- unacceptable, especially with an automatic gratuity applied to parties of five or more. We ordered the masala lassi and Podi idli. The idlis were soggy with a burnt flavor, and the lassi was so spicy I had to dilute it. Attempts to get the host's attention were ignored, and support staff did not speak English. We ate only two out of three idlis and voiced our concerns, only to be told, "That's how they are" -- a dismissive and unhelpful response. We moved on to lunch, still trying to get decent recommendations, but again received no guidance. When placing our order, I was told to confirm it on a handheld device and warned it couldn't be canceled. As if we had time to waste -- we were clearly there for lunch! We ordered: * 1 plain dosa * 3 onion chili rava dosas * 1 cocktail uthappam plate (5 pieces) We asked about portion sizes and were told the uthappams were small -- they were not. When the food arrived, the dosa and rava dosas were cold and slightly charred. The uthappams came out late and were oversized and missing the onions described on the menu. When we questioned it, we were told, again dismissively, "These are cocktail size." We had no time left to address it further as we had to leave for our next meeting. My Ratings: Cleanliness: 5/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Service: 0/5 Food Quality: 0/5 I don't normally leave negative reviews, but this experience left a bad impression -- especially when hosting international guests expecting authentic Indian cuisine. Podi was a complete letdown. I won't be returning and cannot recommend it to others.

Podi Dosa is such an authentic Indian restaurant that serves such amazing dosas! This is my first time trying dosas and wow was it yummy. This restaurant is located in little India of Artesia. Parking there was not bad. The wait for this restaurant can be quite long especially on the weekends. After sitting, we were greeted and given menus. The menu had a lot of different items but our eyes were set on the main attraction which were the dosas. We got two of the masala dosas and got chicken biryani as well. The masala dosa was so hot and fresh. The crepe was nice and crispy on the outside and the potato filling packed a good heat and flavor. I love all of the chutneys and sauces that came along with it. They all had their unique taste to it. The chicken biryani was also cooked and spiced well. The egg in the middle was a nice addition to the dish. Overall, I had a great time here. I still crave the dosas as I'm writing this review. I'll be back for some more!

Stopped by on Mother's Day and there was a line outside. Luckily, we were a small party and were able to get seated right away. Even though they were packed, the service was quick and attentive. We got the masala dosa and lamb biriyani (regular). Both dishes were great! It was the best masala dosa I've had in a while. The dosa was crispy and came with sambar & variety of chutneys. They also gave the option to have the masala on the side or inside the dosa. The biriyani was flavorful & plentiful! Some of the lamb pieces had bones which I'm not complaining about. There was also a whole boiled egg which was a pleasant & welcomed surprise. I was told the regular biriyani is not spicy, but if you have a low spice tolerance, you might still find the 'regular' biriyani spicy. The other types of biriyani are considered spicy so if you're looking for something hotter, try that out. The biriyani also came with raita (yogurt) to help cool down your palette. The only addition I wished for was a nice tangy & spicy lemon pickle to go with it. There's plenty of parking space in that plaza. There's only one bathroom each for men & women with sinks inside, and could be better maintained. Expect a line if you need to use the toilet or wash your hands before/after a meal. Restrooms are in the back near the kitchen and everyone in line had eye irritation from the raw onion enzymes wafting out of the kitchen. Small price to pay but be prepared for that.

The food, and especially the dosas, are so so so good in this place! The portions are very generous and it's easy to order way too much. If you're not too familiar with Indian food you might have a difficult time getting much information from the servers so I suggest you research in advance. Their gigantic family size masala dosa is fantastic, and their Manchurian Gobi (cauliflower) is one to obsess about. The restaurant's vibe is laidback and casual. It gets busy over the weekend so be ready to wait around peak lunch and dinner time.

Outstanding food, but not for the faint hearted. The food is authentic and very spicy. The menu is very long (20+ pages) and if you are not familiar with the cuisine, it's very confusing. The interior is plain, but clean. The service is friendly. The food is the star. Unlike other South Indian restaurants in Artesia, they have non vegetarian options and wine and beer. If you want to try a different kind of Indian food, then this is the place.

Great dosas and excellent service! The staff was very welcoming and friendly, which made the dining experience even better. The Mysore masala dosa was fantastic, with a perfect amount of flavorful masala, but the plain dosa stole the show for me. It was so crispy and crunchy that I enjoyed eating it on its own. I always get the masala (potatoes) on the side to keep the dosa from getting soggy, and it worked perfectly here. The variety of chutneys provided was amazing--my favorites were the spicy peanut, tomato, and sweet mango pickle. The sambar was also well-seasoned and delicious. My dad ordered the chicken curry, and he loved it--the chicken was tender, and the flavors were spot on. The only downside was that the dosas were a bit too oily for my liking. I asked for them to be made without ghee, but next time, I'll also request less oil, which the staff assured me is possible. The lassi was perfectly tart and sweet - paired well with spicy dishes.

The restaurant offers a variety of different dishes. Meat dishes, vegetarian, vegan... I like the variety but my favorites are still the Dosa`s. Its a favorite so sometimes there is a wait. The service is not the greatest, but the food is good.

Ate their masala dosa ( masala on the side) and I was blown away with the quality of the dosa . Very crispy all the way to the end , plenty of assortment of chatani's and good tasing sambar. It was huge . I can say " I had the best dosa in a very long time ". Whenever I visit LA I will visit this place for sure . Keep up the great work . Thanks .

They lower their food standard; they now match the quality of their food with the quality of their customer service: absolute garbage. It was so bad I almost threw up. Good luck to anyone brave enough to try their food made for other life beings. I have eaten here multiple times in the past 5 years, and it has gotten worse each time. I cannot express how bad this experience was; I would not be surprised if they close in a month. Honestly, order from anywhere but here. I found multiple pieces of hair throughout my food. Please do not go.

Saturday 12:50pm First time! If you're a frequenter of Indian buffets this is not the same although there are some menu items that will be familiar. I highly recommend that if you are unfamiliar, you look at the menu well ahead and do some research to differentiate the dozens and dozens of options on the dosas. There are 3 menus: alcohol, biryani, and dosas + everything else. After a lengthy deliberation and some outsourced text recommendations from friends we chose: Masala dosa pav bhaji butter chicken spicy We found the food to be highly enjoyable. Water refills were regularly offered during my visit.

THE BEST MOST TASTIEST FOOD EVER. My favorite! Everything is fresh and delicious. Full of flavor and fresh spices. The customer service has VASTLY improved recently. The dosas and chutneys are great! The chicken 65 wet byrianni is awesome. The channa masala is wonderful. Chole bathura great for breakfast! Pav baji so yummy. Palak paneer is super fresh! There are so many great options. The raita is my favorite side. The Sambar soup a great addition to any dosa or even on its own! They even have Gobi 65 now which makes me so happy. If you enjoy spicy you will love the food! The updated menu includes descriptions of all the items. Highly recommend if you want the most flavorful and fresh Indian food around. Your tastebuds will thank you!

To start with this place has NO AIR CONDITIONER. So if you plan to visit this in the summer you can barely sit and eat sweating away . It was horrible . Ceiling has holes and signs of water leaking. Place is busy they do make an effort to clean the table but clean the table only to drop the food on the floor which is filthy. We could barely eat our food as it was so hot in there . The service is so bad you will get the order in pieces . Got the idly but sambar came 10 minutes later after asking for it . You have to keep asking for things constantly. Food is not bad once it all shows up Asked for Rava dosa they server said no. My next table over asked and got it ??? Horrible service Sambar is horrible . Dosa ok !!! Idly forget it don't order it Not worth the torture to this place will be passing it for sure .

I been a regular customer of this restaurant for over a decade but unfortunately it's clear things have changed.. and not for the better! While the food has always been decent, customer service was consistently been an issue with long waits and significant delays in getting orders (hence the bad ratings from everyone)! What's worse is the drastic price hikes over the past couple of years. A dosa now costs $20!! and an appetizer (idly) is $15!! To put this into perspective, we spent $40+ on just one appetizer and a single main dish--no drinks, no dessert and definitely not a full meal for two. This was meant to be a light dinner for two not so hungry people but the bill felt more like fine dining at a casual restaurant. At these prices, I much rather take my business to Rajdhani where the food is great and the value feels justified!

I've had a few people recommend this spot to me and now I see why! We came at 12pm on Saturday and were seated immediately. It can get very crowded but we got there at the right time before the afternoon rush. The place was clean and the service was quick. The portions are very big, so we split the masala dosa and chicken biryani among 4 people and that was enough food. They give you sambar and a variety chutneys for the dosa and you can ask for refills which is great. It's definitely worth the price you pay since it is a little more than some other places, but the quantity makes up for it. We finished our meal with the falooda which was very big! More than enough for a group of 4 to split.

They don't have chai, and the servidor was not really interested in being a server that day. We had to constantly get the guys attention to get water to get straws. Maybe it was their first day. Who knows.

I used to love going here because of the good food but I went here yesterday with my family and it was not a good experience. First of all, the tables are so close together that it is so congested for both the customers and employees. As a result of the tables being in such close proximity to one another, one of the employees spilled very hot sambar on my arm and my arm got burned. The employee brought me ice immediately, which was good. We told another employee about it and instead of treating this with urgency, she brought me Neosporin like 30 minutes later. We expected that the manager or supervisor would offer us at least one food item for free because of the inconvenience and pain caused, but none of that happened and my arm was burning and stinging the entire time. On top of that, the service is bad. We had to repeatedly ask for someone to come take our order, bring boxes, the bill, etc. The dosa and sambar itself was good, but the hakka noodles were lacking flavor. This is the reason I am okay with the 1 star but I would give this place a 0/5 if I could and I am never going here again.

I'm giving this place a 3 star because it's delicious, but service needs to improve. Let's start with the bad. The waitress. We arrived at opening and were told they won't take orders for the first 10 minutes. Ok, fine. We waited. The waitress came twice, and was rude each time. Then, at the end, she added a mandatory 18% tip for herself. We were a party of 5 people. She said this is their policy- but I'm not buying it. The food though- really top notch for Indian, especially in the area.

The podi dosas were insane. The podi is a taste I'm still chasing. I've had some good gunpowder dosas before and since that came close, but this remains the best I've had. Made me want to steal one of their giant bags of spices and submerge my head in it.

Very bad experience in the restaurant. I order mendu vada and i felt sick after eating it's very bad ,don't know what those guys add in the vada that made me sick. I come every tuesday there to eat dosa but this tuesday the experience was very bad.

If I could leave this place 0 stars I would. The lady in the sari is so rude and just sits there the whole time. I wanted to cancel one out of 4 items and she literally wouldn't even let me do it. Every-time I come she's just sitting there the whole time while the staff is working so hard. The quality of the food has gotten so bad compared the to prices. Do not recommend and not to mention it's lowkey dirty as hell in there

I've visited this restaurant more times than I can count and have never been disappointed with their food. Located in a plaza, there are parking spots available, though during weekends or busy hours, it fills up quickly. The restaurant is on the smaller side, with a decent seating capacity, but it fills up fast on weekends, leading to longer wait times.

If you're looking for a restaurant that captures the breadth and depth of Indian cuisine, this place delivers and then some. Dosas? Check. Dindigul biryani (plus dozen more variety)? You bet. Chole bhatura, palak paneer, goat keema, and even desi Chinese? Oh, they've got it. It's like a culinary tour of India without needing to leave the Pioneer Blvd strip. You will cover Punjabi, Desi Chinese, Kerala, Chettinad and Hyderabadi cuisine at a minimum. Now, I don't come here expecting Michelin-star service. I come for the food, comfy seating, and staff who are more than happy to keep you fed and happy--sometimes before you even know you need something. This place is a hidden gem, though it's no secret to the loyal crowd forming small lines outside. I've been here over a dozen times, and those lines are proof that I'm not the only one who thinks this spot is worth the calories (and the carbs). And let's address those misguided folks leaving low ratings. Were we even eating at the same restaurant? Maybe they mistook this spot for a fine dining experience instead of the feast-first, ask-questions-later institution it is. Pro tip: Don't come alone. The portions are huge--seriously, it's like they want to feed you and your neighbors. Bring friends or family so you can share and conquer the smorgasbord of cross-continental flavors. You'll leave full, happy, and probably debating who gets the leftovers.

This place is horrible. AVOID to go here. Food is okay. Service is horrible horrible horrible. Nobody is interested in welcoming you. There were only 2 poor employees serving the whole restaurant. We saw that they were just running around. After we sat down at the table, we got menu after 15 minutes. Then next 20 minutes nobody came to take our order. We were about to leave and a guy saw us. Then he came to take our order. Our food came after 25 minutes. Oh man.. we were about to fall a sleep there waiting for our food. So it took almost 55-60 minutes to just get our food on the table. Then the funny part. 1 dish was missing. We thought it will come later.. but nope.. employee was saying oh I forgot to add this dish, It will take 20-25 minutes more.. This place is a whole mess. Food is okay.. It looks overpriced. Restroom is right next to the kitchen. I will never ever go here again.

Ambiance: I know everyone says the service is bad but I think it has improved! When I went in there was no long wait times, etc etc. It wasn't too crowded so maybe that's why but once you are seated you will get served fast. Taste test: The dosas are their speciality so it's a must to get. The portions are huge! And they give you a lot of sauces to go with your meal. The flavors are very tasty. The Chana was just okay. Maybe a little salt lacking but it was still an overall delicious meal!

5 Frikking stars for the food!!!! I do not care what other patrons say about this place. We always utilize their takeout option. We order ~11:30 AM, give staff enough time to prepare our delicious food, and pickup at 12:45 PM-1:00 PM. We never have to wait for our food to be ready. Follow this, and you will be happy campers! -THE BEST Gongura Goat Curry that we have had at any restaurant! The taste is so unique! They do not skimp on their spices and heat. This dish is not for the faint hearted! -Portions on their dishes are very generous! They do not skimp on the amount of meat in their dishes either. Quantities at Podi Dosa are easily 50% to 100% more than other restaurants in Artesia. So, do not be alarmed by the higher price point. It is well worth it! -All entree's come with rice. We usually ask for extra Onions and Lemon on the side. We use it all too! *Laughs* Show some patience, get takeout and enjoy their mouth watering spicy dishes!

Top-notch authentic South Indian-style food, atmosphere, and service. There were large portion sizes, and a heavy crowd. The restaurant was pretty clean, but the restrooms weren't very clean, however.

The owner is always staring at your tables. She need to be out of the restaurant!! Food is ok but even the waiter look as if they are confused

The service was great! We got seated within five minutes! The food was great as well!

I will suggest people who are eating in podi Dosa eat only Dosa don't try another dishes we ordered chicken 65 and noodles. They service very cool and no at all tasty this is the 2 time our experience very bad dishes

Do't listen to the negative reviews. just order a 22oz Taj Mahal and a Masala Dosa with cheese. 5/5

Very Very Slow and poorly managed Service (Granted they are always busy) They line you up in Queue on their system and let you know when the table is ready via Text (after 45 mins wait). We went up to get the table when we got the text-even showed the text message, they couldn't find my name and put my name again in the queue. She said it will take only 5 mins and will get the table....waited for another 35 mins. When we got seated, we got plates and menus quickly but nobody showed up to take our food order for 20 mins. So I asked for attention and they waved me to wait...another 10 mins still waiting and I got up to one of the waiters and again heard please give me 1 min as she walked over to another bigger party that came after us.....now we had enough, we just walked out of that place WITHOUT ordering any food AFTER MORE THAN 1.5 HOURS OF WAIT WITH 2 of OUR LITTLE ONES INCLUDING BOTH OF US FEELING VERY HANGRY (it was quite pathetic experience) BEWARE!!!! Their estimate of 5 mins to serve a table is equivalent to at least 30-40 mins and absolutely SLOWWWWWW SERVICE!

WORST service ever!! EVEN if you order food over the phone or go there and order. THEY dont care !!

I'm not too sure why this place has such low reviews because this place has amazing Dosa. I'm a huge fan of their stuffed Dosa and they do not skimp on chutney, filling, or anything and their Dosa remains crispy. Their prices are slightly higher though and for some reason they charged our party a sharing fee, which I've never seen before. Delicious though!

Crowded for sure, so reservation is best if you want to come here! It took us whooping 15 minutes to get our table as we're party of 5 (2 adults, 2 toddlers and 1 baby) which it's a bit tricky for them to look for the best table for us! But I must say! 5stars for the girl that assist us for the table, she also reminded her other colleague that she wants us to sit at the diner type tables since it's more safety for our baby, so of course we agree to that! Thank you for taking such a good measure to ensure our safety! The food in the other hand! It's huge! It's like...like Buca di Pepo of Indian food! Oh lord! We ordered: - Masala Dosa, 5 stars My husband only shares the edge of the dosa and he said it's so good, he felt worthy to wait for quite a time. And Dosa is huge but the freshness and also the sides were all good, I trust him...his Vegetarian tongue is honest! - goat gongura biryani, 5 stars Actually this biryani is 5 stars as their meat is so tender, juicy and generous BUT! Oh hey yeaaaaah...the girl that serves us already told me, it's spicy..like VERY and I said...I'm ok with it. I said yes it's fine! She reminds me it's spicy and kinda sour. Which I said yeah, it's fine! And it's like out of my knowledge of Indian food, I said yes! My husband is zero knowledge as well, though he's Indian. Ok..the biryani came and BOOM! It's so good, the meat was so tender and juicy! And I almost popped my eyes out! It's spicy...like mie abang adek highest level! Who's Indonesian here?? lol... that spicy dude!!!! I decided to have it for to go and heat it up at night...of course...I'm weak.. I added my own biryani (sorry chef) and it's so good for my weak spicy level! But it's still is good, still is one of the best! - spring roll, 4,5 stars It retain the heat well and it almost burn my tongue! It's so good and amount wise it's more than enough! Still kahve it for to go and bet it's a fresh ingredient coz it stays good! It's not salty! It's tasty! - sambar Vada, 5 stars We love it! It's good in amount and the big donut shape! The sambar is veg but I love the tangy of it! - Mango Lassi, 5 stars The kids loves it but not me... it's too sour dear! But my kids love sour drinks...dunno why...my marriage is sweeter than this! Ahhheeeyyyy!!!! Love that part! Overall it's a good and busy type of place so, reservation is best for the hangry type of people and listen to the staffs when they say it's spicy and! You're not indian like me, dont act smart lol LISTEN...don't be like me! Lol I'll be back though, for the biryani AGAIN

Excellent fish with rice served with salad. I went there almost every week. They were serving plenty of fish portions. I loved their spicy shrimps . Really satisfying my palate. Deal was unbeatable.

Food quality is great along with the service. The only negative feedback is that the owner is not willing to turn on the AC. It was a hot day and once they got busier it got really uncomfortable.

This is my second time trying this place m. Never disappoints. Food is fantastic. It's authentic and full of flavor m. Service is top notch. The server is very kind and explain me about the food. They have a long menu. She recommend me a biriyani too. I got that Togo. Portions are so generous. I ate the biriyani for 2 meals. Buy my highlight is the dosa. Crispy and yummy. They have some amazing chutney,s to compliment the dosa. It's a beautiful well lit restaurant. I will be back. Thank you for your service

If you're looking for "fine" dining of the western world, just forget it. If you're looking for fantastic authentic food, then this is amazing. The idli smothered in ghee and podi is probably my favorite thing, and I got a spicy chicken curry that burned so good. The crispy dosa is amazing with all the different chutney/sauces. Not enough room in my stomach for all the goodness. The restaurant is packed, loud, happy, and it matches what you eat. Get over yourself and stop complaining about the service. Just flag someone down, it's not that hard, and no one is offended. They're working. Or talk to your friend/date for longer. Have a good time. It's a hot restaurant in the summer, wow, that's so crazy. India is hot. lol. Just pretend you're enjoying street food.

After a couple of our friends suggested, we wanted to try South Indian, vegetarian food at this restaurant. We had visited on a weekend evening for dinner and the place was extremely crowded. Had to wait nearly 45 minutes to be seated. Then we placed our order....Masala Dosa, Paper Masala Dosa and Set Dosa. Service was quick & helpful staff. Portion sizes were large and we packed home the leftovers. Quality of food was good. The dosas were freshly made & crunchy. Plenty of vegan options are available. Neat and clean ambiance and nothing fancy. Car Parking is available easily in front of the restaurant.

HUGE portions so definitely get literally anything to share. A bit expensive but given the size, it's worth the price. Service is prompt as well and they do allow for unlimited chutneys and sambhar which was good cuz they start you off with a small portion of a variety of things. Ambiance is loud Indian restaurant lol. What did you expect?!

Enough has been said about the tasty food at this restaurant but to me service along with good food makes it a pleasant experience so that you want to keep coming back. Service at this place was beyond pathetic. The server told us that it would take 1 hour to make Rava Dosa which is insane. The Kuttu roti was so spicy that it was inedible and we did mention while ordering that we want all our food mild since my toddler will be eating it too. We call the server and he argues that this isnt spicy at all. We had also ordered the podi dosa which was decent so we called the manager and complained about the server and she agreed to replace the Kuttu roti with the podi dosa unwillingly. We wait for our food and get the replacement. To our surprise we were just given half the dosa. Who does this? Are they doing charity by replacing our food? Pathetic. We also saw two more diners fight with the server and manager while all this was happening. Needless to say I will never return to this place. You go out with family to have a good time and when you get service like this it makes the whole experience bad no matter how the food tastes. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. FOOD ISNT GREAT, ITS AVERAGE TASTING AND SERVICE SUCKS!!

DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU WANT DECENT SERVICE. OWNER IS HORRIBLE AT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND LIES. EMPLOYEES DON'T EVEN AGREE. We arrived at the restaurant around 1 pm. And placed our orders at 1:15. We asked for one item to go at 1:15. And after about 30 min we got all of our food items that were for in restaurant. When it came to our to go item it never arrived. Sometime before 2 pm we let one of the servers know our item never came. She said she'll check on it. She came back at 2 and said it's almost done. Just 10 min. We packed our to go food and paid. We asked a server for an extra to go box because we still had more sauce. She said she can't give us the to go container bc we have enough. She said she is not allowed to provide more because she will get in trouble. So we had to leave some food behind. At 2:30 we asked another server what happened to our to go item. She said it'll be out right now they're just packing it. At 2:35 we approached the front desk and asked what's going on with our food. The girl said it's being prepared 10 more minutes. We told her it wasn't okay bc we have been waiting over an hour and half for our item. We asked to speak to the manager(who I'm assuming is the owner). The owner was in a pink saree. And she fed us so many lies about how they group the to go orders together so they pushed our order to the end of the to go list. Even though we ordered 1 hr and 40 min prior. We were pushed to the end of the to go list. Then she said she couldn't refund us even though we let her know we are running late and we need to leave. She didn't apologize even once for the delay. Claimed we should've understood how to go works. She also told us the chicken has been ready and we are waiting on the remaining portion of the dish. So supposedly the chicken had been cooked for 40 min. But the noodle portion was left. So she can't give us a refund. We didn't even want the item anymore we just wanted to leave. The main issue with this restaurant is 1) when they make a mistake they lied and tried to make us wait. Be honest and APOLOGIZE that you forgot the order and it'll be an additional 40 min wait. Do not tell us 5 min, 10 min, and it's being boxed when it's not. Take responsibility. You're wasting someone's time. Issue #2) you can't give your customer enough to go boxes for their food? And the servers feel so awkward and bad that they explain that the owner is just stingy. I feel bad for the employees that work here. The food was good but I'll never be coming back for how terrible the service was because of the way it is set up. I didn't understand why they had bad reviews until I tried it for myself. Makes sense now.

Can't say enough good things about this place. Our server was great in recommending different dishes, we tried about 7. I don't know the name of any of the dishes but I did take 2 pictures so I can get these when I come back. Just a little disclosure, if you are not used to these foods(I'm not Indian) it may affect your stomach or maybe that was just me and my friends lol irregardless, I do plan on returning.

Yummy Food. Fat Portion. Great for large families or crowd. Despite its poor review on yelp, I would recommend anyone to strongly reconsider because it's one of the best Indian food I've had in awhile.

Food is good, but super spicy! Kids couldn't eat it at all. This is what we ordered: Idli Plain dosa Masala dosa Podi Dosa

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! Was not happy with my food and they said there is nothing we can do about it! Don't go there!!! Stay away from this place! The owner is the worst and even worse are workers who don't know how to handle customers!

Go for the food, serve might suck. The staff is very courteous and helpful don't get me wrong. but long wait time to get your food could alter your perception, your food might show up in wrong order or in parts, but food is finger licking good, but if you are craving authentic Indian food , this is the place to go.
