Hindu Temple Canteen Reviews
The best authentic home-made South Indian snack food in the whole of NYC. Everything on the menu is cooked by traditional cooks, be it idli, vadas, dosais, uthapams or anything in the category. The sambar is the traditional thick sambar made at home, not the watery non-descript stuff in "hotels".Just A+ class. Oh BTW, the lines can be long!!Everything is recommended!!! As connected to the Hindu temple everything is strictly vegetarian.
It had been a while since I visited this place and I braved a monsoon and idiot drivers to get here. The dosas were on my mind. The place was clean, I placed my order and sat down, and was given my masala dosa. My first thought was shrinkflation is real. When I tasted it, I forgot all that. The dosa was fantastic and combined with the price, it is unbeatable anywhere in the city. For your South Indian food fix, this is the place to go. I am still convinced this is the best dosa...read full review

Hands down best dosa, idli, vada, chutney, upma, pongal, mysore pak, and madras coffee. You can do Abhishek in Ganesh temple upstairs on a full stomach. Very satisfying and may improve your karma! Just not on a weekend though when it's crazy packed.
