Wonderful food! The medhu vada and podi idly are particularly good, and in general all items are really tasty. The Ginger chutney (haven't seen that anywhere else) is simply amazing!!!

Onion rava masala dosa plus filter coffee - awesome! Sambhar is a bit spicy and chutneys are different (peanut, tomato and ginger). Idly is okay! Wife liked Kara dosa, it’s spicy for my taste

The onion dosa is interesting, a sprinkle of cut onions over the masala dosa. Reminded me of MasterChef :)

Visited this place recently when I was on a trip to California. They have a decent ambience but their restrooms were not good. We went there as a family for an evening tiffin and ordered standard south Indian tiffins. Loved their poori and aloo sabzi. All their chutneys were great. The vada was not up to the standard. But in general, it was good food. The service was quick and the staffs were helpful.Dietary restrictions: Vegan and gf options availableParking: Outside the restaurant

The restaurant was bustling with a long wait during weekend lunch hours, but the service was impressively swift. The podi dosa was delightfully spicy, and despite the heat, I thoroughly enjoyed it. As for the mango lassi, it's a favorite of mine that I indulge in several times a week.

One of three best South Indian food in the Bay Area. The ghee Kara idli is one of the unique and must try dishes. Usually has long wait times on weekends.

The food here is really really good…but the restrooms are very very bad. They are very dirty and it’s so uncomfortable to wash your hands there. Please put 2 wash basins inside the restaurant just to wash our hands so that we don’t have to go to those hideous restrooms of yours.Vegetarian options: Everything is superrrr tastyy

Athul Manoharan

One of the best South Indian vegetarian restaurants in the Bay Area.Regularly have a long waiting time due to the rush even though they have a decent amount of seating.My favourites are Rava masala dosa and Poori Chana. The podi items are usually very spicy, some might like it but not for everyone. Their ginger chutney is very unique.They are also open usually till 9:30pm.Parking is usually tricky and gets crowded during peak hours. You need to go and make a reservation in an online queue. Service is not their strong point. Sometimes you have to wait a long time before anyone comes to check on you after seating. Not at all any resemblance of professionalism. But the food is good.

Vatsal Nidhi

Probably the best South Indian place in the Bay Area. Service is always fast and you cannot go wrong with anything you order here . The dosas are flavorful and crisp. Podi idli is one of our favorite things to order here .The chutneys and sambhar is also amazing .We’ve been here several times and what blows my mind is the consistency of the food . You are never surprised with what you get - which surprisingly a lot of Indian restaurants fail to deliver on.
