Incredible service: incredibly fast and the staff were genuinely friendly. The flavors are the real deal; they truly reminded me of India.
Attention to detail: They even serve water in two different types of glasses for the table so you never mix yours up with someone else’s!
If you're visiting, you have to try these:
Paper Masala Dosa: Perfectly crispy and absolutely bursting with flavor.
Gunpowder Masala Dosa: Hits Goldilocks zone of spice—it’s appropriately spicy without losing the complex flavors of the blend.
Highly recommended for anyone craving an authentic Indian experience

Food is amazing here. I ordered the Pondicherry and Gobi manchurian well done. I just had an issue with one thing, it was 4 of us plus a 2 year old. They pre-charged 18% gratuity which I dont care that they did its their policy, but When i looked at the check i said “oh the tip is included “ the guy said no its a service charge you can leave tip cash, I wasn’t okay with that. You should not lie to the customer. I worked in a restaurant for 8+ years and service fee is the tip. I left extra anyway cause they were very attentive. But that just wasn’t right.

SO YUMMY! I love this place. Such good food and good vibes! A new staple to my restaurant rotation. Though be careful if you are sensitive to spice. The food is so delicious and flavorful

I told them I was allergic to nuts, and they fed me nuts.
When ordering the food, my husband and I told them I was allergic to nuts. When the food arrived, I started reacting almost immediately and asked again if it had nuts. Spanish curly-haired waiter came back and told me the food had peanuts, which I have anaphylaxis to. I had literally taken the safety off my EpiPen when the waiter came back and said that the food had cashews, not peanuts, and therefore “there are no nuts in the food.” What waiter doesn’t understand that cashews are a type of nut?? Manager and waiter did not seem at all concerned about the situation. They brought out a new dish and then tried to charge me for it at the end, but I told them I wasn’t paying for that, considering they had basically poisoned me. My husband and I barely ate anything because we were both so nauseous—me from eating a few bites of food I was allergic to, and him from sprinting to buy allergy medication at a nearby pharmacy right after a medical appointment where he was told to “take things easy.” I don’t think the waiter who actually took our food out apologized at all, even though he is responsible for feeding me something I’m very allergic to.
The food itself was great, and the guy working at the counter was extremely nice to us and very apologetic, which is why I’m not giving this place one star. But they are extremely irresponsible about allergies and won’t comp your food if they literally poison you. My husband and I were seconds away from leaving in an ambulance.

The Dosa itself was okay, but what’s the point if you forget the masala and chutney? Eating a plain dosa is like eating dry toast for dinner. For the price they charge, you’d expect them to check the plate before it leaves the kitchen. Really frustrating experience.

Wow. If I wasn’t in such a food coma I would write how delicious this place was, but just know that the few words I have typed have so much passion in them. Amazing food. Got the number 34 appetizer, I got the cheese and onion chili masala dosa, and my boyfriend got the Paneer Pondicherry Masala Dosa. My first time trying dosas and I loved it.

We just had a family dinner at Chennai dosas on Christmas Eve. The Spanish guy with curly hairs has a very rude attitude and he is so disrespectful to us all the time. He was continuously arguing with the Manager as well. manager is a very nice decent man, always take care of us. But the Spanish waiter ruined our family day get together . Will never come back to Chennai dosas until they remove the curly hair guy from the service

Good food. Great and fast service. Onion rava dosa is the best. They have some of the best curries in the planet. Ask for Karan & Naveen.

Food is great.
But... horrible team, especially the front manager. Misbehaved a few times and randomly changes gratuity ahead of the billing! When I resisted, they told me to not come back.
Just 1 or 2 servers are good. But the manager is horrible.

Absolutely loved the South Indian spread here. The dosa was crisp and perfectly roasted, the medu vada had the ideal soft-inside/crispy-outside texture, and the sambhar complemented it beautifully. All dosas were unique, and made with fresh ingredients. Great taste, good portion sizes, and worth every penny. Definitely recommend for dosa lovers
