    The board says Udupi and having been here long ago we came back. We were not told that the management had changed - there was no indication at all. The menu showed Masala Dosa at 8.99 but the bill was for 12.99. That's so not how businesses should be run. They also kept playing music so loudly despite requests to turn it down.

    I ordered the cheese masala dosa. It came with cheese and an onion/potato filling that wasn't too spicy at all. Even though the restaurant was full, our food came very quickly. Sambar and fresh coconut chutney come with whatever dosa you order. Dosa's are crispy and they can make it to however you prefer. The food is very good and comes with good portions. If you want to try authentic South Indian food, then this is definitely a place to try (though,not a fan of their Chinese food). Would come again! psa dosa night is on Monday! -it's a vegan and vegetarian restaurant-

    Could tell food was days old, over priced, over fried and just disgusting. We confirmed with the man we wanted beef curry and porotta and he gave us fish curry which was not even on the flyer. The porotta was yellow and looked moldy and the beef curry looks like it's been fried 18 times since last Tuesday with a bunch of curry leaves added to it. I was warned many times by many people to avoid this restaurant and now I understand. Please everyone avoid this place! We miss the old Udipi Cafe this new Chackos place is so disgusting.

    I have a new FAVORITE spot! Not only is it Indian food but it's vegetarian! I was sold just from checking their website. When I walked in I was immediately greeted with smiles. I felt like I knew them already. My server was so patient with me. There were a few menu items that I was not familiar with and he explained in detail. That was so helpful to me. I got the royal South Indian thali. It was a delight! Each curry was jam packed with flavor. This is where some other the other Indian places go wrong. Either they use too much or too little spice. Udipi Cafe has the right combination! I will absolutely return with friends. #ashsaidit

    Udipi Cafe used to be in Decatur but got relocated to Duluth. From what I remembered the restaurant in Decatur is bigger than Duluth. Now it is located off Peachtree Industrial Boulevard. The booths themselves are small and kinda tight. The lady who sat behind me kept moving back and forth and it annoyed me, like she was a bipolar child who couldn't sit still. I ordered samosas, aloo bonda, papri chaat, and chana masala for my friend and me. A few moments later, our food slowly started to come out. The samosas were good. The aloo bondo was just okay, I've had better, the skin felt soggy. The flavors weren't there. Oh yeah, didn't love the mint chutney. The tamarind chutney tasted much better. Papri chaat was disappointing only cause I had much better, I felt it was the "chips" were hidden below and diced small so didn't have that nacho crunch as I remembered. The most disappointing was chana masala. It had too much cardamon or something. My friend didn't even want to help me finish it. We were both very disappointing. Service was fine but food wasn't. I don't think I would come back. 23/2019

    Initially there was a Udipi Cafe in Decatur which they moved now to Duluth area with new management. This is been run by a south Indian family. Wife and husband managing the restaurant. Very nice people and very welcoming. South Indian food. One of the very few Indian places around that does not have a buffet.That helps if you want to have some good food and not over-stuff yourselves. Excellent food, excellent service, very nice atmosphere. The staff was super accommodating, all of the food was very tasty. Its all vegetarian, and everything came out very quickly. Reasonable pricing of most of the items. The worst thing about this place is their coconut chutney which is consistently terrible, they need to change the recipe of it. I had my all time favorite from them that is Spring Dosa. It's yummy as always. They do have ample free parking in front of the restaurant. Authentic South Indian dishes. Try any kind of Dosa's with sambar and chutney. I guess that's the key recipe of the restaurant.

    Vegan and Vegetarian Indian restaurant.

    Good South Indian food, with influences from various parts of South India making their way into their offerings. Not your typical Andhra Cuisine. We ordered a Thali for Dinner (an ensemble of different tastes and flavours organised and served in a single platter, Mai I say 7 course! ), Malabar Parotta, Avial and Dosa. All turned out to be good. Eating out at Veg only restaurants is rare for us, but we enjoyed the whole experience, and they have Vegan options too!! Staff are not overtly friendly in your face, will not come bug you in the middle of your dinner, which is welcome. They will let you enjoy your food and noticeable is that they are always available at hand to help you immediately, if needed. Very clean place, spotless dining area. Well maintained restrooms that does not smell - a rarity among Indian Restaurants I have seen.

We got the: - BBQ Chicken Drumsticks: The drumsticks were thick, smoky, and slightly stringy- definitely reminiscent of real chicken. The sauce was on the sweeter side, but still tasty. - Teppan Tofu Bibimpak: Came out sizzling! The tofu was crispy on the outside, almost custard-like on the inside. The sauce was savory goodness. - Black Pepper Steak Udon: Steak was nicely chewy, udon well-cooked, strong pepper essence. - Truffle Fried Rice: Crazy enough, this might be the best fried rice I've ever eaten. Such a unique combination of ingredients including black truffle, avocado, pine nuts, chestnut, mushroom, and green beans. Cool presentation too. - BBQ Pork Fried Rice: Right amount of sweetness with good wok hei. - Tempura Shrimp Roll: Tasted classic, liked that it had fried enoki mushroom in addition to mock shrimp. Ambiance is casual and spacious, lots of parking up front. Service is fast and friendly. To note, they have an automatic 18% service charge. Also, if you spend $30 in one transaction, you get $10 VG cash for next time (no minimum purchase necessary, expires within 10 days). Honestly, I wouldn't hesitate to go back and try other dishes if it was a bit closer to my house. 10/10 would recommend!

    Vietnamese food. Invariably more than just the quintessential pho. Probably one of the most…read moreunderrated categories of ethnic dishes and all we know of is pho. The more adventurous eaters will go for the bun bo hue because there is a lot more complexity to it. And then you have the banh mi. A marriage of traditional Viet flavors mingled w/ the French flair of the baguette but with Be Banh Mi, there is an additional twist that I think is just ingenious. First off, you will fight for parking so bite the bullet and walk Second the interior. One of the most spacious, under used spaces ever to be used for a sit down/take out banh mi joint. They seat roughly 20 people while the middle section is primarily used to start a line queue. The service. It's the self-service kiosk where you order and they call you by your receipt number so there's no bussing or wait staff. Now for the for banh mi. It's not that it's anything necessarily special. It's a banh mi. Your proto-typical Vietnamese ingredients from grilled pork (what I got!!!) to BBQ pork to crispy pork belly and the works! The ingredients are one in same with any place that specializes in banh mis. What sets this place apart is that they offer the stick version of the traditional banh mi. Yes!!!! The stick version. Banh mi is traditionally served in a toasted buttered French baguette loaf that acts like a submarine sandwich open hot dog bun style then all the ingredients are shoved in the opening then wrapped up for you to open and enjoy. The stick version however is a long, thin, yet equally buttery, flaky, soft bun but it's almost a foot long and thin but they don't skimp on the flavors of the banh mi! That's what makes this place so interesting and worth visiting time and time again. Plus the price is so affordable for a banh mi. The traditional banh mi's run you at $6 per sandwich. The stick version runs you at $5. Between the two versions, you're looking at roughly a $12-$14 with tax. It's such a fantastic deal for something as filling as banh mi can be and between the two versions of banh mi, you will be satisfied! Highly recommend for a good banh mi!

So much flavor, bread wasn't burnt and the portions were great. The price was super reasonable. I left wanting another one! This is by far my new favorite banh mi spot and I'll definitely be back.

We got: - Chicken Satay: The chicken itself was so believable, stringy and smoky! And crunchy (though I'm used to satay meat being grilled). The sauce was tasty too- peanut-y, sweet, hint of curry. However, for $8, I'd expect at least 4 skewers. - Shrimp Chow Kway Teow: CKT is one of my favorite noodle dishes ever, and Mamak's version certainly did it justice. The wok hei was so present, the noodles perfectly chewy, and the veggies (snow pea, onion, carrot, bean sprouts) well-cooked. The shrimp was insane, so bouncy and real-feeling. - Olive Fried Rice: Can't say I've ever had olive leaves before, this dish was delightful! Lots of great toppings (tofu, carrot, green bean, mushroom) that gave some textural diversity. - Black Pepper Beef: The black pepper essence was clearly distinguishable, but the sauce was too sweet for me. The beef was truly reminiscent of the actual thing. Lots of tasty veggies again (cauliflower, celery, jicama, carrot, bell pepper). Overall, taste-wise, all of the dishes were great; however, we did not feel portion sizes matched prices. Service could also stand to improve, with regards to attentiveness. To note, the restaurant is self-seating (I wish there was something that said this at the entrance). You can pay the bill via QR code, but there's a platform fee (I wonder if you could avoid that if you pay physically). Lots of parking available. 9/10 would recommend!

This past week, I went with 2 friends and our server was so nice and I totally forgot to catch her name. From the moment we walked in, she was so friendly and helpful offering different combinations on the menu to accomodate for different dietary restrictions while still getting the full experience. She brought out both types of injera for us to taste to see which we wanted our food with and let us keep them. We ordered the habesha salad and lentil sambussas and it was plenty for 3 people to eat for appetizers. The hot sauce the the sambussas were served with was sooo good! For the main coures, we ordered the ethiopian special(fish and lamb) and a mushroom tibs. For sides, we got misir(my fav), difin misir, dinich wot, fosolia, gomen, and tikil gomen. It was all so good, and more than enough for 3 people to eat. My friend ordered an iced coffee with oat milk and after giving it, the server mentioned that if she didn't like it, she would take it back and remake it. My friend said it was fine, but the server noticed that by the end of the meal, she never drank it, so she insisted and took it off the tab since she didn't drink it. For the dessert, there are only 2 things on the menu, but in reality, there are maybe 7- 10 different desserts, you just have to ask your server what they are. We got a kettle of habesha tea and it has about 4 servings, which was perfect for us. For the first hour, we were the only people in the restaurant, but as time progressed, there were about 4- 5 tables with other people and it never felt loud or too busy. There was great music and I know they occasionally will have a live performer playing classics. Overall a 10/10 restaurant and experience. Will definitely be returning.
