Food was good, server had knowledge on food menu, She was the only one taking orders and brining food. I love dosa it was done well. Customer service is non existent in most South Indian restaurants. Maybe it's cultural.

Highly recommend for vegetarians to try this out. Atmosphere 4 just because it didn’t had dine in option and only for take away. Food was nice with really good portion for what you pay. I am really against tip culture but I didn’t regret tipping here. Will visit again and again.
