Good food and timely service. Deluckshan is a very good server with a bright personality. Always provides timely updates on food and serves with a great attitude with a smile. Please visit the restaurant at Kingsway Location and Deluckshan will always be the good presenter for his work.

I attended NYE karaoke held by Dosa’s. I live 90 min outside DT Vancouver, and arranged my NYE with a friend and my 12 y.o. as there were not many other places to go that were not 19+. We enjoyed our food, which was half price (except red meat & sea food) after 8pm. We bought about $100 in food and drinks in the 2 hrs we were there. We had our drinks refilled once, and were assisted by no less than 4 servers, making ordering, getting refills or acquiring our bill exceptionally difficult. Nobody came by to remove excess glasses, plates or beverage containers until we were ready to pay. At 11pm the evening ground to an abrupt halt as it appeared that they were not expecting an influx of guests on NYE and the event they were holding was causing a lineup. Everyone attending for karaoke was asked to pay and leave. I had not even finished my meal when this took place. While waiting to pay our bill (which took another 20 minutes), a number of loud fights with physical threats took place inside the restaurant with no security on site to manage the situation. Nobody apologized, offered me anything extra or an amount off my bill, for abruptly kicking 10 tables packed with patrons out into the street because the restaurant owner felt they were missing out on other people’s money because of an event they arranged, hosted and advertised. Since they did not feel that my money is as valuable as anyone else’s, it’s highly unlikely I would go again or ever recommend that anyone else does either. If you have atrocious customer service, it doesn’t matter what’s on your menu or how little you ask for it. The thing to do here was not premiere karaoke and dancing on NYE, or complete the evening as originally planned and then discontinue karaoke going forward, not completely empty your restaurant an hour before New Years, which I got to spend in the cold walking through a rowdy crowd of drunkards in the street trying to get home with my underage child. It was also a waste of a 3 hour trip on the road. Good, authentic Indian food is not in shortage in Greater Vancouver, and much closer to home. Furthermore, as if a person can’t manage a second Facebook account, they decided to try blocking my from posting this review from my personal account without any attempt to make amends. Greedy.

The food and service were top notch. By far my favourite. The quality of the chicken meat in the butter chicken is outstanding. I love that the meat is tender, moist and juicy. 👍😊

The food we ate was really very delicious. One must should try medu vada and chili idly and lastly gulab jamun in a desert.

Dosa is must try. Idli Vada combo is must try too. Butter paneer dosa was good. Briyani is ok but not as expected, but better than other places.

We visited House of Dosas on a brisk fall evening and had an amazing experience. The standout for us was the exceptional customer service—super friendly, attentive, and welcoming.

The decor added to the charm of the place, creating a lovely ambiance for dining. As for the food, it was absolutely delicious! To start, we ordered Podi Idli, which was flavorful and perfectly spiced. We tried the Mysore Masala Dosa (highly recommend!) and the Paneer Masala Dosa. While the Paneer Masala Dosa had a Shahi Paneer-style filling we didn’t expect, it was still quite tasty.

For drinks, we had the Indian-style Cold Coffee and Filter Coffee, both of which were fantastic.

Overall, it’s great to have this gem in our neighborhood, especially for authentic South Indian cuisine. Highly recommend! Though it’s sad to see Davie Dosa Company close, this place more than fills the void.
