The food here was absolutely delicious with a great variety. The fried podi idly was too good, and the doffles were a creative twist that stood out. They have a good mix of traditional and innovative options, and everything we tried was excellent. The ambience is casual and welcoming, and the service was friendly. Highly recommended!

Fresh, crispy-edged, and generously portioned dosas. The packaging for takeout is top notch with individually packed items in a flat box to avoid spillage or create a soggy mess. We got the vegan dosa, masala cheese dosa, idli, and vada. Idli and vadas were good, but the stars are the dosa options.

Sambhar, rasam, and coconut were consistently well-spiced and delicious. Will definitely be ordering again.

We had the OG Dosa and the Mutton Keema Dosa. Both were very good. They were not as crisp and professional as in the best dosa places I have been to, but they were very well made and tasty. The sambhar and coconut chutney I would rate as 4 of 5 for authenticity. Service was quicker than expected as only a few customers were there. Overall a great place to get your dosa fix at a reasonable price for the SF area.
