Horrible food. Service guy is so rude. No where in the world they give masala puri with solid madala. It has to be with gravy. Big disappointment

We had a wonderful dining experience at this traditional Indian restaurant. The South Indian thali was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented, offering a perfect balance of flavors—from aromatic sambar and chutney to flavorful vegetable curries, soft idlis, crispy dosa & Medu Vada. Each item tasted fresh and authentically prepared.
The portion size was generous, making the thali very satisfying and great value for money.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was warm and welcoming, with a calm traditional vibe that made the meal even more enjoyable.
What truly stood out was the staff—polite, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile.
Overall, it was a delightful experience, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy authentic South Indian food in a comfortable and friendly setting.

The Paneer was delicious.
The dosa itself was very nice but the deeps that come with it- less.
Desert (dosa with chocolate) was mediocre.
Service and atmosphere were great.
Nice experience but overpriced.
