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

Don't come here honestly it's a rip off and they make it horribly. Do yourself a favor turn the corner and go to the canteen. Literally the worst dose place I've had. Wouldn't be surprised if this place shuts down soon Also I would like to add that this place was NOT busy but yet they still managed to make the dosa horribly If you try to tell the manager he doesn't even admit to the poor quality. He's extremely rude, rolled his eyes and dismissed me and my mom The Sambar is very small. The dosa is no crispy at all. They fill the entire dosa up with potato while giving a small portion of the actual dosa itself. Poor aesthetics, dirty tables, and unhygienic restaurant read more

Dosa Hutt is one of my favorite food experiences. There aren't really a lot of Indian restaurants/eateries in Flushing, so I was really excited when my friend suggested this place. It was little daunting ordering at first, because the menu was so foreign to me... We eventually settled on: 1. Masala Dosa- packed with spiced smashed potatoes 2. Chili & Onion Dosa- it is what it is: chili and onions stuffed in dosa The dosa reminds me of a crepe, but is more crisp. Both dosas came with sides of chutney and some sauce for flavor. Very filling! 3. Mango Lassi- concentrated creamy and rich mango flavor. This can get sickeningly sweet, since there is a lot of added sugar, but is still a delicious accompaniment nonetheless. read more

I'm typing this review with fingers still warm and wonderfully greasy from my meal here. It was so good that I couldn't even stop and wash my hands to yelp. I will warn you - do not, DO NOT change your mind about eating here when you see the faded awning or the old-fashioned felt menu with plastic letters and numbers. Do not walk away when you see the grungy tiled flooring or the cheap laminate seating. And do not let the fact that it's bizarrely placed between a quasi-residential area and a sprawling temple lead you away. This place is the real McCoy, and the delicious smells that surround you upon entrance are only the beginning of what promises to be a great meal. There's been much mention about the kindness of the man at the counter and I was delighted to find how true it was. I told him I'm a vegan and admitted that what little I know about South Indian cuisine could fit in the eye of a sewing needle. Completely unfazed, he patiently walked through the short menu with me and explained what was in each one. He also gently directed my greedy eyes away from other things that contained non-vegan ingredients (when you see the menu, you'll understand why it feels okay to be greedy here - the prices are more than decent with most of the items hovering at the $4 mark, and a few offerings that tip the scale toward $7 but no higher). In the end, I settled on a mysore masala dosa and an order of samosas. I was sorely tempted to eat it right then and there, but felt awkward enough about being the lone yellow Asian in a sea of brown people that I finally ponied up the 50 cents to get it wrapped to go. Two quarters are a steep price to have it wrapped as shabbily as it was - in little more than aluminum foil and foam cups and plates - but it was strangely endearing and homespun, the way a friend or neighbor might wrap leftovers for me to take home. Confession - I live about ten minutes away from Dosa Hutt and I fully intended to start eating only when I got home but having those smells wafting around me in the small, enclosed space of my car was driving me wild. So if you caught sight of an Asian girl stuffing her facehole while cruising down Kissena this afternoon, I hope you enjoyed the show as much as I enjoyed eating the samosas. They come two per order, and because I dug in mere minutes after leaving Dosa Hutt, they were still scorchingly hot. Not that that stopped me - I pushed my pain tolerance to new levels as I couldn't help but gobble down bite after bite of pillowy potato and vegetables, swathed with a complex entanglement of spices that I couldn't even begin to identify but HOT DIGGITY DAWG it was good. I dug into the mysore masala dosa when I got home, only to quickly realize the man wasn't kidding when he warned me about its level of spiciness. I foolishly thought my Korean palate would make quick work of any spices this kitchen had to offer, but the dosa had my tongue tingling with mild terror (in a good way, the way of fast roller coasters and scary movies). Like the samosas, each bite spun my taste buds in such a delightful dance, I couldn't stop eating and instead did as Usher once said - "Gotta' let it burrrrn!" The menu describes dosas as 'crepes', but I would argue that this is much denser with a toothsome heft, owing to the rice and lentils that they use for the dough, and therefore stands up bravely to the task of containing the hot, hearty filling. The mysore masala calls for spicy potato chunks, smattered with sauteed onions, and it's offered with three dipping sauces. I wish I knew more about them to describe them better, but because I don't, I can only identify them as (1) the sweet one, (2) the dark green one, and (3) the light green smoothie-looking one. I diplomatically dipped bites into each cup and found that all three were equally delicious. Even better was finding that they'd included a free small soup of soup which was (of course) also spicy, but delicious and hearty just the same. For eight Georgies, I managed to stuff myself silly and might've even done well enough with just one order. Great food, great find, and will most certainly be back again. read more

Dosa Hutt - Menu - Indian Near Me - Flushing, New York

I grew up eating mainly North Indian cuisine and very late in my foodie life was I introduced to South Indian cuisine. I still feel pretty uncomfortable when I go into a South Indian establishment because I still have trouble figuring stuff out. But with baby steps, I'm sure I'll master the art of eating good South Indian food. Dosa Hut is a great place to start off if you are a novice. Now granted, there are no descriptions as to what is what and probably a pictorial menu would help greatly, but luckily, the man running the counter is super nice and patient. I think I asked him a million questions. "What do you have that is vegan?" "What is pakoda?" "Do you have samosas?" "What is idly?" I just kept firing questions and he nicely answered all my questions and with a smile. He now has my loyalty and business for good. Mostly everything on the menu is vegan. Rock! Just don't get the butter dosa. Dosas are like crepes with your filling of choice. The "crepe" is fermented and made with rice batter and lentils. They have many varieties of fillings and I opted for the Mysore Dosa, which is stuffed with potatoes and slightly spicy. It is usually accompanied with sambar (a spicy lentil stew). The crepe is also eaten with sauces, which include a tamarind chutney, a coriander chutney and I think a coconut one. I like the this crepe idea and the dosa was light and the chutneys went well with it. I also ordered 3 samosas. They are deep-fried savory pastries stuffed with potatoes and peas and usually mildly spicy. The samosas here are a good size and 3 could easily feed 3 people. They were fresh and on-point. Solid samosas here. In addition, I ordered a tomato and onion uttapam. It is a dosa-like dish. I would say it is like a savory pancake. This is something I usually get when I get South Indian food and I like it very much. Filling and flavorful. I never did find out what idly or pakoda were, but I guess I'll leave that for the next trip here. read more

The buttery, greasy-ness might be a turn off to some, but it's absolutely essential to those of us that enjoy getting down and dirty with our dosa. My Indian friend insisted we try here so I could compare the quality and taste to what a restaurant would offer; oh you hole in the wall places! How happy you make me! The bathroom is literally a hole in the wall, and use caution when trying to do your business; it's so small you might pee on your shoe. But! Let's forget my fetish for bathroom decor, and focus back to the dosa. We each got one - a buttery dosa and a spicier one. I loved how huge they were, and the crispy texture with the golden hue made me wiggle in my chair like a kid on a sugar high. This place packs their dosa to the max! Stuffed with potato and peas and other ingredients I'm not too sure about, will leave you literally stuff until wayyy later on in the day. I also bought for home uppamavum - yes, I know it's a breakfast dish, but I'll make up any excuse to have it. Wish I lived closer :( read more

It's hard to find decent South Indian food (as most Indian restaurants are centered around North Indian food). So Dosa Hutt was a welcome find. Too bad it's all the way in the middle of nowhere. The masala dosa I had was crispy on the outside and warm and spicy on the inside. I love that they also have traditional Indian beverages like lassi and not so traditionally, Limca, an Indian version of Sprite that my sister used to love on trips to India. They also have uttampum and idli which I highly recommend if you haven't had the chance to try South Indian food. It's definitely worth the trek! read more

Since I pass by this place nearly everyday, figured it was time to give it a try. Just like another reviewer stated, it's kinda sorta like a South Indian fast food place. Only a lot more cleaner than some of the Western food chains. The bathroom was super clean. Oh, and its vegetarian. The cheese dosa I ordered came swift and was tasty. The mango lassi was kinda small, but good. You can chow down for under $10. The cheese dosa was $4.50, and the lasso was $2.00. It wasn't until I left the place and hopped back on theQ27 bus that I felt the pleasant aftereffects. The food had settled in quite nicely inside my tummy. A relaxed satisfied state. Screw McDonalds. Give me Dosa Hut. read more

Dosa Hutt - Cheese Dosa & Mango Lassi - Indian Near Me - Flushing, New York

I went to this little authentic Indian restaurant with my boyfriend and his family today. They know I love Indian food, so they decided to take me here for once. This restaurant is located in flushing, next to a Hindu temple. I ordered the cheese dosa ($4.50). It came with coconut chutney and Sambar. The coconut chutney was really flavorful, but it was a little too spicy for me. I should have asked for it mild. My boyfriend, who can tolerate spicy food more than I can agrees that it's a little too spicy. I also enjoyed the Sambar. As for the dosa itself, it tastes really fresh and crispy. The dosa had melted cheese, which was cooked perfectly. I also had the samosas. They were okay, I don't have much to say about it. I also had the mango lassi, which is a mango drink made with yogurt and milk. It was sweet, smooth and yummy! The drink definitely calmed down the spiciness in my mouth that built up from all the spicy food. I recommend you visit this place at least once. read more

Dosa Hutt - Cheese dosa with coconut chutney - Indian Near Me - Flushing, New York

I don't even know where to start when describing this wonderful place. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, if you want to know what's vegan (which turns out to be a lot of the menu), if you don't know anything about south Indian cuisine or if you want to know the levels of spiciness they'll gladly answer all of your questions. It's a rare and precious gem in an age of vast poverty when it comes to finding delicious (and cheap) vegan food. Back in my omni days this place showed me you could have an entirely vegetarian or vegan meal and not miss the meat at all... they're simply that amazing. The dosas are delicious, the sambar and chutney are also delicious, I have yet to try other menu items but I'd be surprised if they were anything less than delicious. If you're looking for a missing piece of your soul that can only be found in food form, this is the place to go. read more

When I first moved to NY, I crashed at my friend's apartment for 3(!) weeks while I was trying to find a place to live. She brought me here and I fell in love. The food is so fairly priced and very tasty. I'm almost always with her so I defer to her in terms of ordering but I have never been disappointed. I especially love the snacks at the counter. Coming here has now become nostalgic and I highly recommend! read more

It's small & can be pretty crowded. Dosa Hutt is amazing! We love the food here. It's so delicious! We got the 2 cheese dosas, 1 masala dosa, 1 samosa, & 1 onion dosa, all total only about $22! Great deal! Everything we got were so good! The food packed full of flavor! The dosas came with sambar. The sambar is spicy & flavorful. There is no picture or description on the menu so if you are not sure what to order, just ask. The girl who's taking the order were very polite, friendly, & helpful. There are two entrances. You can either go to the one on Bowne st or the newer one on Holly ave. The wait for the food can be a while when the place is crowded. When it's not that busy, the food came out pretty quickly. The portion is pretty good. One order of dosa is definitely enough but if you have a big appetite, two orders of dosa would definitely be filling. If you love Indian food or if you simply love eating something flavorful & delicious, this place is definitely worth trying. Even if you are not a vegetarian, you'll definitely will love the food here. This place is definitely one of Queens hidden gem! We'll definitely go back! read more

Modest restaurant for authentic all-vegetarian South Indian cuisine. On this occasion, we had the medhu vada, idli, and masala dosa. Each came with a good portion of sambar and chutney and were served in a basic foam plate (to save cost and time, I suppose). So they get a "D" for presentation - thanks to the foam plates - but they get an "A" for execution and taste. The vada was delightfully crispy on the outside and perfectly fluffy and adequately moist inside. The idli, too, was fluffy and sufficiently dense to soak up the sambar but didn't come across as too heavy. Masala dosa was large enough and packed with potato bajji on the inside. I've seen some places where they impress you with the size of the masala dosa - sometime overlapping your plate by twice the width of it - but disappoint you with the substance & flavor. That was certainly not the case here as the dosa was tasty and filling. The surroundings are pretty spartan but I knew that was the case. I came for the food, not the decor, so keep that in mind if you've yet to visit this little gem. Service is adequate but a warm smile from the cashier would have been nice. Ah well...again, I came here for food and just kept telling myself that when I was looking for things on which to nitpick. Prices are fair. My buddy and I both ate well for around $20.00 total and that included a soda and bottle of water respectively. There is no parking lot and there is a Hindu temple next door so you may have to park down the street and walk a few of blocks sometimes. A small price to pay and it may even be a good thing if you don't want to go directly from sitting at the table and stuffing your face to sitting in your car and suffer from food coma. If you have yet to try authentic South Indian fare, give this place a try. Come hungry and leave satisfied. read more

I used to live a 15 minute bus ride from Dosa Hutt and boy was it dangerous. I would get these sudden, insatiable cravings for the crispy deliciousness that is a dosa late at night, hope on a bus, and come here. First off, everything here is delicious. There isn't a thing I haven't tried on their menu, and their isn't a thing I wouldn't eat again. My favorite? The butter dosa with onions and cheese. I can scarf this baby down in a few minutes flat, washed down with some Thums Up soda and finished off with some house made rasmalai. The best part about Dosa Hutt is the absolutely delicious sambar and chutney accompaniments. They're amazing. Also try the iddly. Dip it in the sambar and let it soak up the spicy, vegetably goodness. Yum! read more

I grew up two blocks from Dosa Hutt, and still look forward to eating there every trip I take back home. This place is a treasure, one of those places that make New York special; it looks, when you first go, like some dump in the middle of nowhere, but is actually the home to some very serious culinary artists. They've perfected the dosa and the utthapam to such an extent here that I can no longer go to South Indian restaurants elsewhere; I have since visited many dosa-specialist places in central NJ, DC, Los Angeles, and elsewhere, and I always come away sad and disappointed with the bland, unrefined taste of their versions. It's all in the subtlest of touches: the way the dosa filling at Dosa Hutt is so carefully spiced, rather than the goopy-bland yellow potatoes you'll see elsewhere, or the tart, fermented taste of the soft center of the thick-pancake utthapam, a dish which is just bland elsewhere, presumably because the batter hasn't been fermented long enough. The two standard condiments at Dosa Hutt -- coconut chutney and veggie soup-like sambar -- actually vary quite a bit from day to day: one day the chutney is very spicy and the next day it's cool and mild, for instance, but every time it's amazingly delicious. The service can vary a bit, from charmingly surly to simply friendly, but once you come back a few times (and you will!) that doesn't matter anymore, because you're a regular. I usually don't even get in the door before the counter guy has written down my regular order -- and I'm there maybe three times a year. This is a truly special place, a simply sublime experience (for anyone without a lentil/legume allergy, at least -- my allergic friend can't even come in the door, or drink their bottled Snapple, without having a reaction). If you're taking a special trip here -- something I'd recommend to every New Yorker -- bring at least two or three other people so you can sample a broader selection. It should be obvious that the must-try list includes the masala dosa and at least one variety of utthapam, but you really should also get a sample of the medhu vada, which are little savory lentil donuts, to dip in your sambar (or try the plain iddly [steamed rice-lentil dumplings] if you want something mild to soak up the spice you'll be getting everywhere else). read more

Woke up with a major dosa hankering, so i road the 7 train from start to finish, and wandered over. An hour and a half later, sitting in restaurant, hangry af. This is definitely one of the better special rava masala dosas iv had. The rava is rather cheap, but its 8 bucks and the most expensive dosa on the menu so its all value. The masala is really great. Really impressive coconut chutney, maybe the best ive ever had in a restaurant. And we're talking about 25 years of dosa eating. Thats why this place gets 5 stars. I also had an idli vada. It may sound cheap at 3 bucks but they only give you one idli, which is hilariously absurd. That being said its soft and fluffy. Excellent. All in all really good, it satisfied my craving. All the ingredients are legit, the flavors are on point. I even grabbed some samosas and muruku to go. Two things i have to add tho. my dad would probably refuse to eat at this place b/c of the styrofoam plates. And also he'd be pretty appalled to get only one idly, thats ludacris to him. So if my family came to the area to go to the ganesh temple next door, im likely to suggest we eat there instead. But dont let that deter you. read more

Do yourself a favor, stay away from this place unless you wish be insulted by customer service and food cooks. They will reprimand and argue with you for asking a question more than once.

I've been coming here for years and this place has always delivered a nice, relaxing, and delicious meal. It's a quiet location, and nice for an afternoon snack or full lunch. I love hot foods, and the spicier items on the menu such as the Mysore Masala Dosa, or the Pondicherry Masala Dosa do not disappoint. Their coconut chutney cools your mouth right before the heat kicks in, and makes for a great hot/cold combination. One of the restaurants in Queens that I would personally recommend to anyone that's looking for something not as touristy. read more

Our go to Dosa spot. The chili masala dosa is great with a slightly spicy kick. Their Samosas are excellent, sauces are great, and they even have a soup that is probably incredibly simple, but is one of my favorites as well.

I am no expert in Indian food, Indian food is something that is new to me. Dosa Hutt really is in a completely residential neighborhood, it is right next to a Hindu Temple. The restaurant is completely vegetarian that feature these long wrap like items called dosa. The dosas were kinda lifeless for me, it was kinda like eating flavored air. Free soup was just OK, it didn't have a substantial flavor The food: Mango lassi- This was excellent, I think it's a must order. It was so perfectly creamy and wonderful. I loved it. Masala dosa- the texture was nice but kinda lifeless. The potato had nice flavor but didn't really pop, the flavors were too one note. Cheese dosa- it had the same dough. Nothing pronounced, not really exciting. The cheese was semi sweet and semi salty. Onion and chili dosa- kinda just had a raw onion and chili flavor, nothing exciting. Onion Pakoras- these were nice, kinda like onion balls. I thought the red sauce was a nice complement. read more

I usually go to the temple next door but I was craving a paneer dosa. Theirs isn't available on weekdays and I don't like when they're crowded on the weekends so on Friday, I came here. I had their Paneer Bhurji Dosa with extra ghee and a Sweet Lassi. I asked the counterperson if there's a way it can be made less spicy. I've had it in the past, and even though I'm West Indian, I can't deal with hot spices. They scare me lol, increase pitta in my body, and I'm already a bit of a fireball so I try to stay away from it as best as I can. She gave me a puzzled look and said it wasn't spicy at all. I gave her a puzzled look back and said okay and sat down lol. I mean, I instinctively remember sitting with my ex here five years ago and using my mindfulness practice to hold space for the fire that was circulating in my mouth from eating this Dosa but okay. And she was right - it wasn't spicy at all. Maybe they changed the recipe? It was still really good, and I'm so grateful they cut down on the hotness, although I'm sure fire lovers ask for more. During all of this, I forgot to ask for my dosa to be crispy (a picture of a soggy dosa from here haunts me in my dreams lol) but it wasn't soggy. It was just the right kind of crisp! Although with the moisture content of the peppers and paneer, it got a bit soggy near the end but nothing to complain about at all. The sweet lassi was good, as always. Another reason why I don't come here as often for dosas is that I like the coconut chutney and sambar at the Temple more. It just looks more vibrant, and the sambar has visible vegges in it (albeit maybe frozen). Anyway, I love this place and you should too. read more

Not many dosa options in flushing but this place rocks. Been coming for years... Not sure why I've never left a review here yet. Favorite on the menu is definitely the Mysore masala! The prices are incredibly reasonable as well. The place does get very busy at times but at least they do have a second seating area in a somewhat detached store right around the corner so don't forget to check there if you can't find seating. read more

I'm not your traditional vegetarian. Salad? No thank you. Tofu? Eh. Raw vegetables? Get them away. My brother would say that I'm picky. I would say that I'm selective. But what does this selective, carnivore turned vegetarian crave the moment she gets home from a semester at college? Always a dosa. My brother took me here a few years ago and I was immediately hooked. Where did I want to go for dinner the day I graduated from high school? Dosa Hutt. What did I crave when I had my first heartbreak? Dosa Hutt. Where do I take friends who are visiting from out of town? Dosa Hutt! What do I ask for on days when I miss my brother a little extra? What's that you're guessing? Oh darn, oh shoot. You got it right. Dosa Hutt. I honestly can't even recommend anything in particular. I've had everything on the menu over the years.

Great simple meal! I used to drive all the way to Hicksville for some Dosa but not anymore now that I know I can come here instead then pray afterwards! The staff were friendly as if like family. My go-tos for South Indian food: dosa, idli dipped in sambar (I can only have so many of idlis bc they're so yummy!), and of course the mango lassi. You can never go wrong. Everything was tasty including the coconut chutney! I loved how light it was! I could probably eat that with rice any day! read more

A lot of people prefer the Ganesh temple canteen (appearently even Anthony Bourdain has frequented that spot as part of No Reservations), but my mom always prefers this place for some reason. I remember this dosa hut from childhood, and finally ate here after more than a decade! We ordered the idli and chilli/onion uthappam. Both are to die for! Utappham has to be the most underrated South Indian breakfast item, but sometimes you're just not in the mood for a paper-thin dosa. I liked how it resembled an Indian pizza, the spicy sambar and the minty coconut chutney were the perfect marriage in my mouth of deliciousness. Also, their salt lassi was amazing. Masala chai for our journey back home was an added touch to the great and friendly service I received here. Cheap, inexpensive, and worth it if you're in the area (Manhattan for dosas ain't gonna cut it!) Go to Flushing or trek over to Hicksville in LI for dosas and South Indian fare. read more

I dream about the rava masala dosa here. How it manages to stay warm, crisp and moist after a 40 minute car ride truly breaks the law of physics. They should ask if you need/want plastic utensils rather than just putting it in your bag tho. Who could eat a dosa with a plastic fork and knife anyway and who would want to? Most of us are taking the food home and eating on real plates with silverware like civilized beings. If I want to be a heathen and eat in my car, I'll just go full boar and eat with my damn hands. read more

The dosa here is delicious and tasty! I ordered a masala onion and chili dosa with a mango lassi. The dosa is crisp, with the masala(spiced potatoes) having a kick and makes the dosa's flavor better. The onions and chillies are delicious fillings with changes in texture that will improve the dish. The coconut chutney is a refreshing and spicy condiment to the dosa, as well as the sambar a good soup on the side. The mango lassi here helps control the heat from the dosa, while being creamy and sweet. The only problem is that it is difficult to eat dosa with a fork and spoon; it can be messy. This place is a must go for dosa in Flushing. read more

Onion Rava Dosa and Pondi Cherry Dosa is a must have!!! And honestly, it's way better than the canteen downstairs of the mandir.

Your location Dosa Hutt 4563 Bowne St, Flushing, NY 11355 Indian Hemant Vakharia 1674 points   33 minutes ago One of the worst experience. Visited on 08/31/19 around 6.30 pm. They served Sambar in Cofee cups. I saw proper Sambar bowls in their kitchen & asked for those. The guy who claimed to be a manager first said that I don't know how to eat - Sambar is always served in glass and not in bowl. I politely told him that I am 60 years old & don't need eating lessons from him - asked him again if he can give me the bowl - his response was 'these bowls are expensive' - this prompted me to ask him that is this how he talks to his customers? And his response was that he is in this industry for 21 years. This is the problem with many Indian Restaurant - they are rude, poor customer service. Fault lies with us, we encourage them by not saying anything and make them feel as if they are monopoly. Yesterday there were 15 other customers and though many privately agreed with me, no one stood up with me. Shame on us. I asked to speak to the owner but obviously he wasn't available. I hope that he has some decency to respond to this. read more

Love this place! The dosas taste amazing, although you have to eat it immediately if you want it crispy. I'm fairly certain it would start getting soggy in a car ride. And the small cup of sambar that came with it was to die for; I don't get why I don't see it on the menu as an a la carte option. The samosas were very flavorful and crispy, and it came with a coconut chutney. Dosa Hutt has a pretty big menu with a lot of different options but for comparisons sake, I still prefer NY Dosas cart around NYU. read more

I almost don't want to write a review on yelp because I want to keep this place a secret. But I do know that the chances of people actually trekking all the way to Flushing, to go to a hole in the wall nonetheless, for bomb dosas and uttapams are slim...

Great place and would highly recommend! Had the masala onion chili dosa. Came with soup. Will be sure to go back!

I don't like Indian food. My friends make fun of me for it because I am obviously of Indian origin (unless you're an elderly Latino person, then I am Dominican). It usually wreaks havoc with my insides and I find myself making more noise than a steam engine after eating it. However, I love this place. Not only is it conveniently located next to my temple, so I can sustain my body after sustaining my spirit, the food is ridiculously good. I know, a little off from what my initial sentence proclaimed, but I make an exception for Dosa Hut. Their masala dosas are always hot and fresh, without any greasiness tainting the texture of the dosa. Their idli is fluffy, the sambar is perfectly spiced and there's tons of coconut chutney to be had. It's vegetarian, but it's better than any chicken tikka masala (puke) that I've ever had. read more
