Please try Baingan Bartha if you're vegan. It's roasted eggplant in a spiced tomato sauce. Roasted eggplant tastes different than typical versions and it's incredibly satisfying. It's pronounced something like "bangin' burta."

Vegetarian options: Baingan Bartha, just order it! Pronounced something like: bangin' burta

The food here is okay. However, I had place an order on the phone and was told it was a 30 min wait. I came in after 45 mins and was told it would take another 15-20 mins. It seemed as they had not started my order at all. The total wait time from placing the order was 1 hour and 15 mins. I had to take the food home to my family who was fasting all day. I wish they had given me an accurate wait time. If I had known the food would take more than an hour to prepare, I would have went some place else. Please be more clear about wait times in the future. Lastly, the prices for food are a bit expensive for the quantity you receive.

They consistently serve us leftover food and we suggest them they could enhance their service on that matter.

Came for dinner and the food was ok. We ordered the special biryani which came with goat, chicken, and shrimp pieces which was nice. The taste of the biryani was okay but you can get more authentic biryani at other nearby restaurants.We came for the dosa which was nice and crispy but the filling inside was less. Ordered:- Masala dosa which came with potato filling, sambhar and chutney- Non-veg dosa which came with chicken filling, a non-veg curry and chutney- Kids special dosa which came with some Nutella inside. Overall, the dosa was decent.We also ordered the sweet lassi and a plate of medu vada to share. The lassi tasted good but was very diluted by the large amount of ice. The medu vada was made fresh and hot.Service was okay, it took us a while to get cups or water at our table. Overall, this is a decent place for Indian food but there is stiff competition nearby.

Parking: There is parking in the front and back of the restaurant.

Chikka Tikka biriyani tasted like tomato rice and ketchup, tandoori chicken meat was too old, canned soup with some random raw masala thrown on it, tomato ketchup in a kebab roll. This is the most unauthentic food experience i had in a while.Simply too many items on the menu to focus on quality. Dying plants for decor and stale air smell from the air-conditioning. The waiter was amazing and price point was very reasonable.

My date and I had a blast here. Our waitress Lovebreet was so sweet and knowledgeable on teaching us indian cuisine. She made great suggestions. I got the goat Tikka masala and it was divine. Also got some garlic naan and they were fantastic. Perfect crunch and amount of garlic. The owner was kind of enough to give us gulab jamun for dessert. It was like a donut dipped in a honey glaze. It was quite unique but good haha. Great food and restaurant. Would highly recommend. Thanks again guys.

I visited with my wife after many years. We used to drive all the way from Philly multiple times and were expecting a similar experience but were disappointed.Service took a very long time and when it did arrive, the quality of dosas had fallen considerably. Sambar portions were tiny and we had to constantly ask for more. Stuffing portions were way less than comparable South Indian restaurants and tasted like days old, not fresh. Chutney typically makes or breaks the experience - here it was watery and just inauthentic.Makes us wonder if the backend staff is trained properly in South Indian cuisine. We noticed the menu is trying to do too much without focusing on their actual namesake “dosa hut”.
