The indo-Asian menu seemed like someone's best attempt at home cooking, and the Hakka noodles were not fully cooked! The server was either stressed or was unable to understand our order, she walked away while we were ordering and came back several times to confirm our order. When we complained that the dosa was too hard to our liking, she gave us a blank stare and asked if we wanted more dosa. Despite the more modern interior decor, the poor tasting food and poor service unfortunately completely turned us away from returning. Really disappointing!!

Truth be told, I'd been feeling somewhat disillusioned with the Indian food in Edmonton lately. The…read morebutter chicken stopped being as good at the place where I used to love it and every restaurant that I'd try was starting to taste the same. For a city that actually has a ton of Indian food available, I really needed to shake things up and to try something new. Enter Suvai Dosa's, named Best Indian Restaurant 2023 in EDify Magazine. I'd never heard of them before but eagerly headed down to Ellerslie Industrial to taste everything that I could. And boy am I glad that I did. The location isn't much to look at. It's in a strip mall and the windows are covered in brightly-coloured images of their food. Entering the little restaurant, you are not met with a space of fine decor or grandeur. It's honestly more like a hole-in-the-wall cafeteria and I was truthfully filled with feelings of doubt. There are booths along the circumference of the room and the walls are brightly painted in lime green, orange and red. I did, however, appreciate the TV showing only Bollywood music videos and the great Indian music that was continuously playing. We were able to sit wherever we wanted on the Saturday evening of our visit but the restaurant was also steadily occupied with other patrons. Our server was helpful enough but also seemed slightly perturbed by our questions and entire existence? She also disappeared entirely toward the end of the meal and we had to go up to the counter ourselves for further service. Regardless, the food turned out to be good enough for me not to care about any of that. As always, I started with a Masala Tea ($2.75), which is a traditional chai. This version was excellent. They serve it with sugar but I never add anything to it and am happy to drink it straight. As good of a masala tea that I've had anywhere else, this chai tastes real. It's not the too-sweet coffee chain chai latte made with syrup - it's the real thing. Simmered spices that create a warm, flavourful cup. The cuisine at Suvai Dosa's is specifically South Indian food. I'm not an expert (nor am I pretending to be) and I'm not familiar with which dishes originate from which regions. But what I do know is that this food was unlike any of the Indian food that I've had in the past. Had I previously been eating Northern Indian food? Or just a North American white-washed version of Indian food? I'm not sure. All I know is that something different happened at Suvai Dosa's and it has changed my previous perception of what Indian food is supposed to be quite a lot. We started with the Tiffin section which means a "light meal" or "snack." (Not to be confused with the Starters, which are different.) I wanted to try a bit of everything so the Idly (3pcs) Vada (2pcs) Combo ($12.49) seemed like the best way to achieve a full experience. I didn't know much about what I was ordering but was so ready to learn and to try things. Right away, I loved that the chutneys (dipping sauces) were the colours of the Indian flag. I'd never seen any of these items before. Idly (the warm, white spongy pillows that reminded me a bit of Wonder Bread) are a type of savoury rice cake made by steaming a batter consisting of fermented urad dal (lentils) and rice. It's absorbent and made to sop up sauces, hence the array of chutneys that it was served with. I loved the white chutney that tasted like coconut! The bread is cooked in specially designed molds and comes out perfectly formed. With a delicately earthy lentil flavour and a fermented kick, this was enjoyable to eat. Next was the vada, which looked similar to a pakora to me. These are essentially savoury Indian donuts - fritters made of urad dal (lentils), onions, and spices and fried until golden and crisp. Fun and easy to eat, these tasted great dunked into the sambar (a lentil-based vegetable stew) that was also served on the side. In the Starters section I was extremely close to ordering the Chicken Lollipop (they looked really fun!) but changed it to the Masala Fried Fish (Marinated with spices and Tawa Grilled - $16.99) at the last second. I am so glad that I did! If I had to pick my favourite dish of the whole meal, this would be it. Wow! Two big pieces of fish crusted in the most flavourful array of spices. The outside was slightly crisp with amazing caramelized edges, while the inside was incredibly moist and meaty. Plus there was a big spicy kick for anyone who loves some heat! I will have to order this every time I visit because this dish was gorgeous and the execution was perfection. I've certainly never tasted anything like this at another Indian restaurant before. Of course we needed to try the Suvai Special Dosa's especially since it's the namesake dish of the entire restaurant! Going into this, I had never tried dosa before and wasn't sure what to expect. Interestingly, Suvai Dosa's does NOT serve naan. I found this slightly shocking. But then I started to wonder if the dosa was meant to take its

The Aloo Poori is something to try if you want a taste of Indian street food, and the Chicken Korma is mild and nutty and a little sweet, just like it should be.

Also we haven't had Indian food for a long time. Inside my heart sank because it looks horrible inside. A couple of tables added as an afterthought, no decorations and a sad counter. Definately made for a take out place. But we were here and took a seat anyway. Menu was full of the usual things. Prices seemed to be congruent of other restaurants but with no atmosphere. The owner or staff were friendly and hospitable and suggested a few things. We decided on the vegetable samosas, lamb vindaloo, and butter chicken. The meals came with naan and rice. It took a bit or maybe I was hungry it seemed like it. But when it came, it was delicous. The samosas were plump and flavourful and for just over 6 bucks for 3 a great bang for your buck. The lamb vindaloo was hot (as we asked for), lamb was tender and plentiful. The butter chicken was swimming in a rich sauce and my husband sopped up all of it with the delicate naan. Will definately be back here but maybe order it to go.

Tonight, I had an issue with my Uber Eats order where part of it was missing. Uber wasn't willing to correct it, and I was incredibly frustrated. As I was about to leave the restaurant after realizing the mistake, the gentleman there stepped in and completely turned the situation around. Even though it wasn't their fault and they absolutely didn't have to, he generously made up for the missing item out of pure kindness. That level of care and integrity is rare. The service here is always exceptional -- warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. And the food? Absolutely to die for. Every dish is packed with flavor, perfectly prepared, and consistently delicious. This is the kind of local restaurant that truly deserves support. Incredible food, outstanding service, and people who genuinely care about their customers.
