Meenakshi Bhavan Reviews
Best South Indian food in the bay.
Got togo lunch thali items and all of them were really homely. Kadamba sambar, pepper rasam, beetroot kootu, okra fry and mango pachadi all tasted wonderful. Great option for South Indian vegetarian food
Great food and service. Small place but real taste of southern Indian food.

Meenakshi Bhavan is a great option for South Indian vegetarian food. The food is delicious, fresh, authentic and homely. The thali is very filling and perfectly portioned for one person. The Kadamba sambar, pepper rasam, beetroot kootu, okra fry and mango pachadi all tasted wonderful. The dosas are crispy with perfect flavor, and the chutneys are very good, especially the tomato chutney. The sambar can be improved a bit but is still not bad. The Poori masaal, Madurai malli dosai and thaali offer sufficient quantity and variety, and the pooris are enormous. The sweet included was not too sweet. The menu is a tidy double sided page. There are plenty choices of dosa and appetizers, and the price is right. The restaurant serves breakfast as well, open at 8 AM. The wait staffs are nice. This is one of the better cafes in the south bay area and is highly recommended for authentic south indian food.
