Dosa Place is a hidden gem and the exterior looks humble. The owner was friendly, attentive and introduced their signature dishes to us with patience. The options on the menu were various but they ran out of lots of ingredients when we arrived at a late lunch time. We ended up getting their Cheese Dosa with Masala to share and our favorite Indian donut Gulab Jamun as dessert. The dosa was fried crispy and matched with the flavorful Masala sauce. It was not too spicy so it's perfect for me. The Gulab Jamun was decent but it could've been better if it was served warm.

A decent Dosa place close to Niagara Falls. I come from a South Indian family so I have high standards for dosas (Indian savory crepes). I ordered a paper butter roast dosa. If you are familiar with dosas, you know that paper dosas are these extra thin crispy crepes. The masala (potatoes and peas cooked in Indian spices) came on the side and I also requested spicy powder on the side which I like to mix in with the other accompaniments. Dosa traditionally also comes with Sambar (lentils cooked in a stewy style) which was also provided. I thought the dosa tasted pretty good but they could work a bit on the sambar and masala part. I think it's a good option if you are in the area and are craving some South Indian food. They also gave me a complimentary cup of rasam (spicy soup with Indian spices) which was very nice of them. Honestly, the rasam scored higher in my head than the dosa so if you are just craving something warm and comforting, you know where to go!

Seeking vegetarian food? Or vegan? Dosa Place could be for you. Seeking steak? Chicken? Fish? Dosa Place is not for you. This is a traditional vegetarian Indian restaurant. If it ever had eyes it's not being served here. Almost half of India calls themselves vege. So they have lots of vege options. This is a large space at the end of this plaza nearest to Tops. Far enough away from Tops doors that parking won't be an issue. 10 booths, 6-8 4 tops, 4 2 tops and two larger in the back. Well lit. They ask you to wait to be seated. Presumably because it's busy, which when I was here it was. Mostly with Indians actually, i think that's a good sign. Easy to read takeout menus. I gather this is the same family that had a place on NFB previously. I did not go there so cannot compare. I had a masala dosa. To go. Well wrapped and generous portions, both the filling and the dipping options. This is a spicy dosa but they have much more mild ones too. I really enjoyed mine. I'll be back for another one soon. Maybe with a fellow yelper who likes Indian food.

Have you had a dose of dosa yet? If not try them out! Growing up in India, we had south Indian food quite a lot. Special occasions with a large group of family members always took place at a south Indian restaurant as the food is economical, fast and delicious. South Indian food is quite different from north Indian. It is usually vegetarian, much lighter and spicier than north Indian. Dosa is a large crepe made with a mixture of ground lentils and rice. The batter is allowed to ferment overnight which gives it a slightly tangy, sourdough like taste. It is usually eaten with sambar(a lentil and veggie soup) and coconut chutney. At dosa place they also serve it with a spicy chutney. Ive been to Dosa Place a half a dozen times now and my experience has been mixed. Ive tried several of their dishes. Some things have been really delicious and others just meh. The onion rava dosa(crepe made with semolina) is by far my favorite. I also enjoyed the Mysore masala dosa(regular dosa with a spicy paste spread on the inside.) The paper dosa is ginormous! It is crispier than a regular dosa. The Dosa place special is a good deal, and so is the Thali special. Ive had both and I found the quality of the vadai(fried lentil cakes) and idli(steamed rice cake) not so appealing. They seemed a little tough and stale. The inconsistencies at this restaurant made me deduct some stars. The restaurant is clean except some clutter in the back, going toward the restrooms. I am sure I will return to Dosa Place again, mostly to satisfy my craving for south Indian food. But, now I know what to stick to on the menu.

I'm vegan and recently moved here from Baltimore. Buffalo, in comparison to Baltimore, doesn't have that many vegan/vegetarian-exclusive places. When I found this place, I got super pumped. I love Indian food and all it's delightful flavors and degrees of spiciness. Seeing that Dosa was vegetarian and vegan-friendly, I had to try them out! I was not disappointed. I got their spicy dosa Marsala w/ potatoes and onions and not only was it deliciously spiced but spicy! The heat was awesome and I love it! I also got one of their lentil curry and that was also AMAZING and delicious! I felt like I got a lot of food for my buck and I am a happy lad. The people there extremely helpful with pointing out what's the best vegan items to get. I want to take my spouse here, I know she'll love it too! If you're vegan/gluten-free/vegetarian, this is the place for you!! read more

I was so disappointed in this place...Every time I asked for something on the menu, they didn't have it. I asked for the thali special but they don't do that anymore they said. Then we asked for porotta, they didn't have that. Ugh! The dosa was good, I'll give them that. The rest of the food we asked for mild (amount of spiciness) but it was ridiculously spicy! Lastly, the masala tea I ordered was COLD, like it was made in the morning & microwaved for a few seconds before serving! The staff was friendly, the restaurant was clean and located in a good location. read more

Food was okay. Worst part was when the manager/waiter tried to take three thalis at once and spilled it all on us. Oily goopy food covered our clothes and pretty much ended a good day we were otherwise having. His apologies were late in offering and not enough.

Bad bad bad service.We got our water and menu after 30 mins. The waitress starting by saying it was just her and another guy handling the whole place. We were visiting from Jersey and were a group of 10. The food was barely edible. Bad tasting, chutney was ice cold- maybe right from the freezer. Only 1 chutney option with the dosa. I mean its a south indian dosa place-- how can they have just sambar and 1 chutney. Sambhar was terrible by the way. On top of this they are not even cheap + added 15 %gratuity even though thier service sucked. I was so tired from all the waiting and sitting around for all our orders--Just paid the bill and left...did not have the strength to argue after 2+ hours of sitting around. read more

Pathetic service. I ordered from this restaurant and the owner had no clue about my order AFTER he had handed it over to the driver. Extremely unpleasant man and has no clue about 'hospitality'. They missed sending an item out of an order of 4 items (seriously, not rocket science). The chapatis were basically like chips or rocks that I couldn't break. Oh btw, I hope they learn that Indian chapatis are supposed to be round in shape. Terrible experience and NEVER trying this place again. read more

Great food, great service. I've tried a bunch of their dishes and I've got to say it's hard to pick an overall favorite among the many options. My personal favorite dosa is the paper butter roast. Out of the veggie curries I honestly couldn't choose a favorite but definitely try the okra masala and matter paneer. The vadais are very properly made. So crispy. And delicious with sambar. I've eaten at many Indian restaurants and I've never preferred one to home cooking until I came to Dosa Place. (sorry mom!) I'm not a vegetarian, so I was pretty surprised to find a range of awesome flavors at a vegetarian restaurant. Finish off your meal with some rasam and of course dessert and you will find yourself leaving full and very satisfied read more

We were waited on by 5 different people and they all took excellent care of us. Very friendly and attentive. The food was the show stopper. We got saag panir, butter chicken, alu gobhi, naan, and rice. I had plain chai tea which was very good. The portions are large and we both couldn't believe the quality and freshness of the plates. We also got dessert and I would even come in just for that pistachio dish. We have a short list of local spots for date nights and Kaashi jumped to the top.

Service from the bartender was great. He offered up some suggestions, which I needed because they have a large menu loaded with so many appetizing and amazing looking options. I started with their potstickers... They came out with a hard, fried shell and the dipping sauce went nicely with them. Enough to share, or even enough to enjoy and still have room for an entrée. My main dish was their Chicken & Waffle. This isn't some ordinary chicken and waffle, it's definitely an amped up version, made with unique and interesting ingredients, culminating in great flavors! The chicken was so large and very tender - it was amazing! The bacon and sauce on top went with it nicely, and the chive waffle was great with it! Each bite was definitely amazing! This was a great experience, I can see why they have so many reviews and such high stars, those are well-deserved stars!! Definitely recommend stopping in here!

Our server was super friendly and knowledgeable. The meal always starts with fresh baked bread service that is accompanied by butter, house pickles and either a hummus or garlic confit (in my experience). My mom is gluten free so she was bought her own dish with focaccia and a roll. She was over the moon about that and really enjoyed the focaccia. We all enjoyed every bit of our meal which included our choice if an appetizer, main dish and dessert from a prix fixe menu for $40. Some of our choices included charcuterie, arugula salad, tamarind shrimp curry, salmon and lemon meringue cheesecake. We left with our culinary needs satisfied and our stomachs full... we even had some leftovers. I can't wait to go back again. It's best to make reservations as they usually get fully booked. The menu changes each culinary semester as this is an instructional restaurant.

They also have staff working there that graduated from the program and were hired by the restaurant. This place is fantastic. As soon as we walked in, we notice the ambiance of the entire building is clean and well maintained. The restaurant has an open kitchen concept so you can see much of what is going on "behind the scenes". Upon entering the restaurant, we were appropriately greeted by staff who were very personable, respectful, and informative. The same attentive and personable service was given by the entire staff. We were able to ask questions about how the restaurant operates, being that it is operated by the Culinary Institute and its students and alumni. I'll spare you the details but it is an interesting dynamic. The food was excellent. We went for dinner and while there is a limited menu, the options were varied enough that anyone would be able to find something they will enjoy. This might be the most affordable three course meal I've had this decade. The food was prepared perfectly, the presentation was impeccable, and the service provided leaves nothing to be desired. The entire operation is run calmly and very efficiently. I am happy to have had the opportunity to dine at Savor and it is going on my short list of highly recommended upscale restaurants for anyone looking for a nice dinner at an affordable price. So if you're looking for a night out and don't want to break the bank, go support the students and alums from SUNY Niagara. I doubt you'll regret it at all. You can look up their operating schedules and make reservations online.

The prices were reasonable, the portions were just right, and the service was good. The staff made the visit smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. I'm a big fan of Vietnamese pho soup, so I'm always excited to try new places--and this one did not disappoint. It's always fun exploring new spots, especially when they deliver on both taste and service. If you're looking for a Vietnamese restaurant near Niagara Falls, you should definitely give this place a try!
