I appreciated seeing no, meat and other non-vegetarian items in the menu. We ordered Bada with Sambhar and Rava Dosa along with a Mysore masala Dosa. Sambhar was extremely yummy and right combination of spices and not too spicy. Additionally, the tomato Chutney and the Coconut Chutney was very very fresh and yummy. Everything went well together. I also like that the potato filling was served on the side and not inside my Dosa, so I could control the quantity I would consume. We closed our lunch with a cup of tea. It was little strong and over boiled for my taste, but I liked the warmth of it. Overall, this is a good place to hang out with your friends or kids, and there is something for everyone on the menu. Next time I'm gonna go and try their platter which comes with Dosa Idly and Kesari Bhat and chole poori which is my way to test how good a place is ... for now I will give this place a 4 star Our server was very polite, attentive, and made the check out super easy for me

Anddddd, the best dosa in the Triangle goes to..... BLR Bar in Morrisville!…read more A few months back, I had planned a group dinner with a bunch of friends and one person recommended BLR Bar. I love Indian so I said "sure, why not!" A group of 8 of us went and as we all scoured the menu, it occurred to us that this place was vegetarian only. My initial thought (and I'm sure other peoples also) was.. "oh snap.... Did I make a mistake?" Honestly, it's been a long time that I've been to a non-meat establishment and had I known in advance, I probably would have passed this restaurant up, but since I was already there, I, along with everyone else, went with it. We were all seated, drinks had been poured, everyone was committed to their chairs. There was no backing out. From looking at the menu, it seemed like Dosas were popular so being that it was supposed to be a South Indian restaurant, I decided to get it. My friends got the gobi, one spicy and one non spicy. Guys, the spicy was incredibleee. Loved it so much. It was crunchy on the outside, soft in the inside and had a punch to it. But I will say, the non-spicy was just okay, it just didn't deliver that kick to it. When the dosa came, I was in love. It was a beautifully done dosa, with the perfect curl and texture. Paired with the sides, it was delicious. Fast forward six months later, I went to BLR Bar again, but slightly fearful that I wouldn't enjoy it as much the second time around. My fears were put to rest because it was just as delicious as the first time. If you're looking for authentic southern Indian Dosas, look no further. Pay BLR Bar & Curry a visit ASAP!

Triangle Biryani does something increasingly rare in the modern restaurant economy: it invites…read moreappetite, then rewards curiosity. What begins as a neighborhood Indian restaurant unfolds, course by course, into something richer, a place where abundance is not excess, but hospitality. The tandoori mixed grill arrives with even greater authority than first impressions suggest, a composition as thoughtful as it is generous. Lamb chops emerge smoky and deeply spiced, their char lending both structure and intensity. The shrimp, delicately singed by the tandoor, bring a quieter elegance, their tenderness sharpened by fire. Paneer, too often treated elsewhere as secondary, is here a revelation--absorbing smoke and seasoning in a way that gives it surprising depth. And the chicken, vividly marinated and flame-kissed at the edges, carries the layered warmth and complexity that marks a kitchen attentive to balance. Taken together, the platter feels less like a sampler than a full expression of the restaurant's range, a study in texture, heat, and restraint. Then there is the lamb rogan josh, that old standard too often dulled by caution elsewhere. Here it carries depth and resonance, its sauce layered rather than merely hot, aromatic rather than blunt. The fish curry moves in another register altogether--brighter, looser, edged with the sort of acidity and spice that keeps drawing you back for one more spoonful. And the goat biryani--perhaps the house at its most persuasive--is a study in fragrance and restraint. The rice speaks. The spices do not crowd one another. The goat carries the slow-cooked tenderness that makes biryani feel less like a dish than an event. But what lingers is not only the food. It is the choreography around it: the cooling sweetness of a mango lassi against rising heat, the sweet-sharp intrigue of banana chutney, the sense that condiments here are not afterthoughts but part of the composition. The room matters too. There is care in the design, warmth in the lighting, and something deeply reassuring in a staff that seems to understand service not as performance, but as welcome. Many restaurants offer variety as a strategy. Triangle Biryani offers it as culture. That is a more meaningful thing. You leave not merely full, but expanded. And that, in the end, is what memorable restaurants do.

The lunch buffet was about $22 per person, pre-tip, on a Sunday. Well worth the price! Our server was fantastic. He even pointed out that they have separate street food dishes included with the buffet (not just what's on the main line). The Kurkuri Aloo Tikki Chaat (potato cake) was delicious!

We also had an appetizer with tofu which was scrumptious. Their naan is puffy, a little blackened and really good. It takes a little effort to get to them on Capital but, really, the last time we tried to go to a place on Hillsborough, there was no parking and you could hardly hear over the din in the restaurant.
