It was my first time trying Indian food (well, specifically South Indian in this case) that wasn't from the frozen section. I got samosas, medhu vadai, pani puri, and masala dosa! The star of the show was the medhu vadai, they were soft and puffy yet crispy textured donut-shaped fried rings, and my group and I really enjoyed them! Pani puri is something I had been wanting to try ever since Google showcased it in one of their doodles, and it was an enjoyable and unique experience...

We ordered Masala dosa and Pongal Vada combo for dinner. Dosa was good but I was disappointed after having one bite of Pongal. Not sure where the chef was from but Pongal was more like Rice and Moong khichidi, it did not have Pepper, Hing, Curry leaves and ginger. I don’t know how they missed to add pepper which is the essence for that dish. I hope they change their recipe. Otherwise Dosa, chutney and Sambar was good.

Enjoyed the dinner at this restaurant. We are satisfied with every item we ordered here. Quick service and food prepared with authenticity. We ordered Vada, Idly, Ravva dosa, Bangalore Masala dosa and plain dosa. This place is worth to visit again!!
