Omg everything was so good. I wasn't familiar with this cuisine so, my friend ordered for me. We got 2 Iddly, samosas, rava dosa and masala dosa. The Iddly were pillowly soft and was good was the sambar and mint chutney. The Masala dosa was good with the potato filling but I liked the rava dosa better the onions were so buttery and sweet and went really good with the mint chutney and sambar. The samosas were the best samosas I've ever had. The staff were really friendly. It was relatively quiet except for the bollywood music playing in the background. All the food was amazing. We concluded the end of our meal with mango ice cream and almond saffron ice cream. The rolled ice cream was really good you could feel the layers break apart on your tongue making it especially satisfying. read more

Nestled in the vibrant neighborhood of Flushing, Queens, Dosa Hutt offers a glimpse into authentic South Indian cuisine with a warm, family-like atmosphere. My recent visit revealed a restaurant that prioritizes hospitality over culinary perfection. The tomato onion uttappa, which I had high hopes for, fell short of expectations. The ingredients seemed hastily chopped and unevenly distributed, lacking the finesse one expects from a traditional South Indian eatery. The seasoning was notably absent, leaving the dish feeling flat and uninspired. In contrast, the medu vada proved to be a pleasant surprise. Served piping hot within five minutes, these crispy lentil fritters were above average, offering a satisfying crunch and traditional flavor. The filter coffee, a staple in South Indian dining, was a highlight - rich, aromatic, and prepared with care. What truly sets Dosa Hutt apart is its incredibly welcoming service. The staff's courteous and familial approach made me feel instantly at home, effectively overshadowing the minor culinary missteps. Their pricing is refreshingly reasonable, with a delightful bonus of offering mango lassi at just $2.50 - a price point that's hard to beat in New York City. While the food might not be consistently exceptional, the restaurant's charm, affordability, and warm hospitality make it a worthwhile destination for those seeking an authentic South Indian dining experience in Queens. I'll be back to try their other dishes which I couldn't try during this visit. read more

Small and cozy little shop for your dosa fix! I will say they do have things other than dosa, and it smelled pretty good in there! I have my eyes on some treats for next time! Super fast and friendly staff. As of now hours are 9am-9pm and on Tuesdays 12 noon-9 pm I believe (2025). read more

Who dares to open a dosa joint right next to the famous Ganesh Temple canteen?? No seriously, I'd like to know. We were surprised to see this new eatery so close to the temple canteen but after we were a bit disappointed by the dosas at the temple canteen we decided to give it a try. Cautiously, I will say they might be better than Ganesh! The ghee dosa was excellent! And the sambar and chutney were very good and of better quality than what the temple churned out in our last visit. Friends of ours also said their relatives started frequenting Dosa Hutt because their dosas are better than that of the temple canteen's.. For now, I'm giving them 4 stars. If we go back again and it's still consistent and excellent, I'll upgrade my review. read more

Wow what a great lunch. I got the samosas they were delicious along with the onion masala dosa which hit the spot. The sauces were so good that came with them. The inside is nothing too fancy but clean and inviting. The service was also great and they answered all my questions. I will definitely be back. Price is decent too! read more

Clearly a neighborhood favorite but I know it's stiff competition with the canteen in the mandir next door. Delicious fresh food at great prices. Family from India visiting and staying sambar wasn't right so will leave that up to the natives to debate. read more

Food very good. Service amazing. Ambiance is meh. Overall very good and delicious. Would recommend masala dosa medu vadai and paneer dosa.

Cannot understand why this restaurant serves such bad food, even with the Ganesh Temple canteen just meters away. Unfermented dosa, microwaved uppuma, runny sambar, half cooked masala - I can go on. Best to avoid. read more

Had my Saturday lunch here yesterday. Had several dishes to get a good feel of the different foods. The food was delicious with excellent spices and a very good heat on the spicy dishes. The staff was helpful, pleasant and very personable. There are a good amount of seats and space to eat. Will definitely be going back soon. read more

This deserves 5 stars for the spicing alone. The rasam vadas (vadas in tomato soup) were straight fire...they tasted like they were made in the kitchen of a South Indian aunty who is an outstanding cook. I loved that there was some actual heat to the spicing of this rasam as well. I tried the onion chili masala dosa as well. I really enjoyed the raw onion and green chili on the dosa, as well as the masala potato filling and sambhar. If you're looking for very good South Indian food at great prices for NYC, this is a must-try in Flushing and likely within Queens. NB: You have to specify asking for a "crispy" dosa here if you're craving a paper/crispy dosa situation. I took it for granted that everyone made paper masala dosas unless you asked for a "rava dosa," which is made with a thicker batter. I was initially disappointed with my order until I realized that it was my bad for not specifying that here. read more

After reading the reviews, I tried this place and it was a treat. The place was clean, and there was plenty of seating. We were greeted immediately and had questions which were answered so that we knew about different dishes. We tried a few different dishes, and everything just tasted so fresh and the spices were very authentic prices are very reasonable and the food is very good quality. I will definitely return to be exploring more of the menu items here. read more

A Do-si-do and a here we go! I'm not a vegetarian by any means, but what I am though is a big lover of Indian food. Dosa's are simplistic and you can have your choice of different fillings ranging from potatoes, spinach, cheese and onions just to name a few. The staff is friendly and seating is limited in this small restaurant, so the name Dosa hutt is appropriately named since the interior is small and the dosa's are not huge. The dosa's though small make up big in the flavor department. We had the Masala and spinach with cheese dosa's, a Vada, which is a delicious lentil shaped donut and Sambar a lentil soup. The dosa's came out crispy and the fillings and herbs they used are delicious. The Sambar tasted like what lentil soup should taste like. We had green coconut and red chutneys. I enjoyed the green coconut chutney which had very fine bits of coconut and as you know, any good sauce or gravy elevates that dish when you slap it on, chutney's are no different and this green coconut chutney is Awesome! Like I mentioned earlier the orders are not huge and that holds true for the chai tea too, delicious at only about a 6 ounce serving, a classic case where one size doesn't fit all. They have many more goodies here to try and I can't wait to go back especially to try the sweets and desserts. A real quick tip, there is a free water fountain with cups to save you some money from buying drinks. Remember, parking in this area is extremely difficult since there are two hindu temples literally a block from each other. Good luck finding a spot near by. read more

This spot has pretty spacious seating and its more like slighly fast food style where you pay and sit and wait for your food. The food here is always consistently good and the workers here are very nice! I LOVE THE ALOO BONDA, they are so spicy and fresh! I usually also get a Masala Dosa, samosa chatt, and the Mysore Utthappam! Always super fresh, amazingly spiced, comfort food! And you cant beat the price!! read more

I asked the lady behind the register what she recommended. She gave me two items and I picked up two desserts. My wife also ordered a chai tea. We agreed that we really enjoyed the food. We got one item that was spicy and one item that was less spicy. Our nose was still runny, but it was worth it. We'll definitely be back for more. Clean. Well lit. Friendly workers. Nice ambiance. read more

Small hole in the wall serving the best idly, rava dosa, utthapam and the sambar which is probably the best in NYC. much better than the temple food which is very inconsistent.

Dosa Hutt - Out chea - Indian Near Me - Flushing, New York

So I came here on a Saturday afternoon around 1 o'clock. It was very crowded there were a lot of people in the restaurant it was also noted that a lot of people didn't have their face masks on I was a bit apprehensive but I did hear about the great reviews. So I did want to check this place out it said it would had authentic though says that with great flavors and spices. Because it was so crowded my friends and I had to wait a bit longer so we waited about 20 to 25 minutes for a spot by the time we waited a lot of people started to leave. We ended up ordering the masala dosa along with the China jot I felt that the spiciness of the order was great it was really authentic very Moise Nas was not oily at all I did order two bottles of water. However there was a point where there was hair in my food that's kind of why I am talking a couple of stars however I know Indian families and sometimes that's typical it's nothing to be kind of worried about him and it was towards the end of my food. I'd definitely recommend this place it has a lot to offer it's definitely a hole in the wall but it's a gem and the workers are very kind that a comparable just know that there are no refunds with any of the things that you order so if you end up ordering something you don't want you can't get a refund but you could do a swap. read more

My friend and I tried the ghee roast, mysore, and cheese masala dosas. Tried to drink it down with mango lassi and a lychee shake. I don't understand the high ratings for this establishment. The dosas were crumbly and the 3 aforementioned orders didn't have much flavor. The sauces were decent but the entire time, it felt more like scooping the sauce into our mouths with the dosas. The drinks were just okay. The temple next door was slightly better (we made a trip just for dosas). read more

When you don't want to wait on the line at temple canteen next door, Dosa Hutt is a convenient alternative. Although the sambar doesn't hold up to the one next door (it's a little watery) there's nothing nicer to eat a nice hot dosa with the chutney and sambar. Definitely try out the uttapam which is kinda like a thicker dose pancake! read more

Dosa Hutt - Onion and chili uthappam and Iddly - Indian Near Me - Flushing, New York

Great food and affordable. My favorite is the Spinach Cheese Masala Dosa and the Vegetable Biryani.

Here's why this deserves 5 stars. 1. Pricing: this place is super cheap, treat yourself, get a dosa or idli, or both and a lassi and you'll still spend less than $10. 2. Taste: While I don't like spicy (and they don't offer a mild option) it isn't as spicy as many places in the city. I was able to handle it and once I got past it, the taste was amazing! 3. Lassi: Love it, it wasn't overly sweet like many Lassi's are, and the mango flavor was genuine. Honestly like the best Lassi I've had in a while and the best part....$2. I would recommend it to anyone. read more

My gosh! I can turn vegetarian for a few weeks if I had this place on the corner. They do a masterful job making the most delicious dosas I've had. They're super moist, fresh and taste great for takeout or even the next day! They do a wonderful job cutting the dosas up for to go. The soup is wonderful and the sauces pack wonder flavor. I love the spinach and cheese. Please Dosa Hutt, open a place in Elmhurst and share some your love for dosas to the neighborhood. Yours truly, Stan. read more

Recently I ordered food without onion, asked before if it is possible, I was told yes. waited for a while. took delivery. when opened food was looks like eaten in the box for e.g., rava dosa was in plastic container cold half side was missing at bottom and potatoes dumped on pieces on top. i called them and was told to get another one. On purpose the dosa was not cooked and after 30 minutes then when given, I took home, on purpose it was hardly cooked like u r eating raw rice batter. I was so exhausted. Threw it and call it a day. Next day I was near temple and I went inside and told them if you did not want to replace why didn't you tell me that? Why give uncooked and worst food again. They are not trained in hospitality business: one guy who looks crazy come out and said we can't give u another one and I said who wants your rotten food again. The lady clerk started to say we give u sambhar (watery daal) again Free. I told her it was their fault to put onions and I had to make another trip and waste my gas??? Take a peek inside and it is dirty??? I wonder why the other shop is for show off and never used. Also the person never gives a receipt and so probably does not show income??? Also the clerk will be doing nothing, the tables are dirty and no one comes to clean. I took my own wipes every time so I clean my table?? The staff thinks they make such good food that people are dying to eat will clean tables themselves. Few weeks ago the door showed "grade pending". I felt Sick and my throat is in pain and I called my doctor. You buy frozen dosa which is clean and eat that. Also instead of apologising that crazy guy told me not to come. ? After this behavior who will go to them. ??? Especially the staff is arguing with women customers all the time. Other women have told me so. read more

The best dosas I've ever had, and I've had a lot. And the rest of the food is great as well.

I love dosas. I really do. They're crisp crepes filled with potatoes and things. Masala dosa: good, classic. But their onion rava masala is even better. If you are to get one thing from there, it's that. It's actually spacious and not as dingy as some review said before. The man behind the counter was so nice and explained what everything was. RAVA DOSA RAVA DOSA RAVA DOSA!!! Cheap, clean, fast. read more

Dosa Hutt - Indian Near Me - Flushing, New York

The staff and service is always very nice and fast. Great for Queens College and Borough College students on random schedules. This is a no frills place, but the food is top quality from my dosa exepriences in Jackson Heights (the Dosa Diner's quality seems to have gone down a little bit lately, but their sambal is still really good. Or maybe it's because they are missing the friendly charm of the people from Dosa Hutt). The seating is pretty spacious for a take-out feel kind of place. The standard masala dosa is good, comes filled with lightly curried potatoes and coconut chutney, cooling to the tomato sambal. The Butter Masala Dosa's even better. But the Rava is may be as good as the butter masala, no onions please. A friend started ordering the $8 "healthy dosa," made of lentil flour, filled with potato, vegetables, and chilies. It's one of the more expensive specials, but she says its worth it. It's better to eat in and enjoy the light, crisp textures of the crepes. They get soggy in the to-go containers. All the ingredients are very fresh. It makes me want to start a Southern Indian diet. . A cup of chai, 1 sugar, is a great way to end the meal. Buses that stop 2 blocks away Q17/25/24/27. read more

Greatest dosa in Queens. Quick friendly service. Delicious authentic food. No fooling with the spiciness. Don't expect tourist level heat. Their sambar is so good I could bathe in it. read more

Excellent excellent food! Worth it all. Best time would be to go during the week..you're guaranteed to get the best food. Dosas are super crispy ((as they are SUPPOSED to be)) and idlis are very soft--you know it's very fresh by the food. Weekends due to crowd, as per any restaurant, the food is watered down somewhat. Been going there 7yrs now and as an Indian myself, I love this spot. This is home to me. And the people that work there during the weekends and weekdays, they're all super nice. The prices are cheap-- cheaper than usual NYC prices. read more

This place is like a little hidden gem and I'll tell you why. Honestly it's hard to review this place because the food is so good. Traditional handmade Indian food. It's not expensive and the food is delicious. If that's all you care about than you should definitely come here. There's enough seating, staff is nice. Bathroom is small and not the cleanest tho and that's why I took a star away. read more

A hidden gem! Some of the best dosa I have had outside of India. The menu is simple but effective. I have tried their Mysore Dosa, Rava Dosa and Uttapams on several occasions. I usually try to avoid deep fried foods like the Medu Vada, but I make an exception for Dosa Hut and put my guilt aside for theirs! Highly recommend! read more
