Poor management. Disorganized seating system- they told 20 groups that their table was ready and none of the tables were ready. Place is understaffed and workers are overworked and mistreated. They ran out of a flavor of a menu item and told us they can't cancel the item off our order and that we must choose one of the other flavors. If you run out of an item, you shouldn't force someone to buy something that they didn't want. I do not recommend this place.

This was the best South Indian place I've been at. The Service was fabulous sometimes giving us free food. The atmosphere is the best and it's really clean. The food is the best I've ever had. I would definitely go here again.

Classy fine dining, super authentic south indian food, exceptional service, knowledgeable staff and packed to the brim restaurant with happy tummies and smiles all around. My husband and I had an amazing experience at Simply South and fully satisfied after our meal. Each and every dish we tried was fantastic! very authentic, fresh, high quality and tastes exactly or even better than restaurants back home. The chef's must be extremely talented and skilled to deliver such tasty food. Guntur button idly: soft, melting button idly's topped generously with yummy podi and loads of ghee. Pullaattu : Never in my life have I imagined that I will eat super authentic pulla attu/ majjiga attu that too in US. this is different to what my mom makes which i absolutely love, its thicker like dibba rotti but with pulla taste from majjiga mixed in batter. kudos!! Nellore Neyyi Karam dosa: Pretty good, loved the karam spread. wish there is masala filling. I've had similar dosa's at other places too but this is amazing. Mango falooda: Literally out of the world! Do yourself a favor and order this brand new drink introduced in the menu. Its all the goodness of falooda but even better mango ice cream and mango infused drink. Hubby and I could not stop from downing this item. Filter Kaapi : My chennai born husband was over the moon after drinking yummy, authentic, fresh and refreshing filter coffee. Poori with veg kheema (vegan): Never have I tasted a veg curry sooo packed with flavor aroma and the chewiness of fake meat. The best. Ohh not to forget the unique and wide variety of chutneys they served in a tower. So so yummy, each chutney tasted fantastic and i was so confused on which i like better so ended up eating them all. oh and the sambar was omg. Can down the entire bowl in seconds. I would like to thank our server Meghana for her exceptional service and fantastic recommendations. Everything we had was suggested by her and we absolutely loved each and every dish to the max. Good luck Simply South. We will come visit again in our next trip to Dallas!

Firstly, I must commend your efforts in maintaining a pleasant and clean environment. The ambiance was indeed very attractive, and all the staff were impeccably dressed, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere upon entering your premises. However, I would like to bring to your attention some areas where improvements could be made. While the overall experience was positive. I found that the quality of the chai was lacking, and it would greatly benefit from careful attention to preparation to enhance its taste and flavor. On a brighter note, the 3 in 1 Thatte Idly was delightful and enjoyable, although the sambhar could use a bit more depth of flavor. Similarly, while the Pullattu was fluffy and well-prepared, it lacked the desired sourness that would elevate its taste to match its texture. Furthermore, the Mudapappu with avakayi was unfortunately overly salty due to an excess of avakayi, suggesting a need for better balance in the dish. Also papad needs to be served with it to complement the dish. As for the Qubaani ka Meetha with ice cream, it left something to be desired in terms of taste and presentation. On a positive note, the filter coffee received favorable feedback from my friend, and the Dosa ghee Karam, although missing its masala component, was still enjoyed, albeit with some disappointment regarding the additional charge for the missing ingredient. In terms of pricing, I found it to be reasonable, but it is essential to ensure that the authentic flavors promised are delivered consistently with each dish. Overall, I would rate my experience at 3.5 stars. While the establishment quickly filled up, I believe there is room for improvement in terms of waitress training to ensure attentive service throughout the dining experience.

"Just tried the falooda made by Siri and wow, it's a game-changer! The silky vermicelli, the rich and creamy milk, the pop of basil seeds, and that sweet rose syrup coming together for a symphony of flavors! It's like a dessert and a drink all in one. Definitely a must-try for anyone who loves a good dessert with a twist. 10/10 would recommend! ?

Food is good ., will try again to check again. Think they are on soft launch and not able to manage with the crowd. Our thali came almost 30 to 35 mins after placing order . All other items came on time, they offered complimentary sweets for the delay.I would try again to see if service is better next time, would suggest South Indian items to try.They have to ensure spoons and cutlery are clean before handing over

The tiffins provided here are satisfactory, but there was a mix-up with our order of hot & sour soup; instead, they served tomato soup and insisted it was hot & sour soup. Additionally, we found the thalis to be overpriced and not worth the expense. Overall, we were disappointed with the quality and value of the thalis.

Honest review as of March 2024.1. Gorgeous place. Management put lots of attention to detail in building the interiors.2. Adequate amount of staff.3. Front desk and servers crew are little slow in picking up orders and delivering it correctly. Understandable due to the number of guests but need to improve.4. Food is definitely delicious and delectable.5. Mind you, this is a South Indian Vegetarian restaurant, so please do your homework on this type of cuisine before visiting and ordering randomly.6. Items which are luscious : Guthi Vankaya, Idly, Dosa, Puri, Coffee.7. Items which are unsavory: Biryani & Upma.
