The place used to be a Dennys, so booth seating was everywhere. We were greeted by a very friendly…read morehost. The waitress was very attentive and very sweet. The menu was extensive; I wished I had a bigger stomach to order more. After placing our order, the waitress offered us a complimentary soup. It was so yummy. You could hear our spoon scraping the bottom of the bowls. We started with chicken samosa. The order came with 2 large crispy, flaky, and delicious fried treats. The stuffing was well spiced. Remember that Ratatouille scene with the critic's flash back? This samosa did that for me. It transported me to my good friend's home where her aunties were in the kitchen making these pockets of culture and traditions. Highly recommend! I ordered the chicken biriani. It was flavorful. The rice was fluffy. The spice level was on target (I ordered mine medium heat). My daughter ordered the chicken curry. She loved it. She kept saying "This is yummy" the whole time. My husband ordered the lamb curry spice level spicy. It cleared his sinus headache :) apart from it being spicy it was also very tasty. We also ordered garlic naan: garlicky and fluffy. So, if you happen to be passing through, I suggest swinging by. If you happen to live close enough to make your way to Taste of Himalaya, I suggest get in your car and try this place. The drive will be worth it. I think the locals know what a gem of a place they have right in their backyard. I saw several to go orders while we were there. TLDR: Service: 5 stars Food: 5 stars

This is our second time enjoying their lunch buffet at the new location (adjacent to the Best…read moreWestern). The restaurant is soo much nicer than their former location next to the Highway House. They offer a huge variety of flavorful veggie and meat dishes. Their saag paneer, veggie korma, butter chicken, and naan continue to be our faves. Tip: They bake the naan fresh after you've placed your order. You may want to wait 5-10 minutes before heading to the buffet. Otherwise, the naan arrives after you've finished your first plate.

I usually only do buffets with Indian food, I guess I just have my fave dishes and that's all I get. The place is nice inside, nothing weird or anything. The buffet runs on the weekends starting on Friday's. I loaded up the on tandoori chicken and the Tikka masala over basmati rice. Naan is included as well. I did like the chicken and it wasn't like some buffets that just use the scrappy pieces for the buffet like backs and rib cages of the chicken. They had the thighs, breasts must be used for something else. The rice was light and fluffy like it's supposed to be and the Tikka Masala was good on it. I had my fill and waddled on out full of tandoori chicken. That's one dish I have no idea how to cook, so I'll do a buffet and eat all I want!

I really…read morevacillated between the 4 and 5 star rank because there are so many things that are right about this restaurant. But there is something missing...? Maybe it's just a wow factor. The food is solid and I've eaten at a LOT of Indian restaurants. Just mostly before doing any reviews it's pretty much my fave, just not a lot where I reside. I digress! Service was good we only waited a few minutes at the front before someone realized we were there and from that point we have been pretty well attended to. Waiter was attentive and its busy Mother's Day Holiday. The ambiance is nice, clean, comfortable, upscale, decor is mood setting, music is spot on. What is boils down to is the food... it's good, but is it the best Indian food I've ever had? Well, sorry no. The base flavor is great, but something felt like it was missing? The vindaloo spicy could be a LOT hotter, and it's got a lot of tomato. Usually when you have the sauces over time the spices just dance in your mouth and you get different hits of things and I felt like something was muted? The back end complexity I'm used to isn't there. But don't get me wrong-we will likely be back because the food is solid and a close enough drive. Great location. Maybe I'm being too hard? But it's one of my favorite foods. The boys loved the hearty large pieces of meat... I was less of a fan but saw their view point, e.g. more filling, less dry. The chutneys, kinda standard fare until you get to that spicy one and then WOW! That's amazing! We got a mild, medium and spicy leveled sauces. For your average foodie that doesn't eat "spicy" food I would say it's spot on... for someone who is looking for something nuclear, how do they request that?? Need to know how to order something REALLY spicy... bring the pain...!!! Barely broke a sweat on the spicy vindaloo and spicy coconut chicken... but tasty! * we talked about it on the way home and we were thinking maybe because it was Mother's Day weekend. There was high demand so the sauces might be a little young too? Might not have had enough time to really flourish and simmer. Naan was yummy and fresh. Chai super flavorful and rich. Lassi was solid great taste, not really chilled so if you are looking for a chilled lassi, just be aware... The other thing I noticed as far as service goes there was nothing that just came out with the meal. I'm kind of spoiled and that I've gone to Indian restaurants... usually have something served on the house like a papadum or naan bread or raita or rice with meal? Granted it's been a little while so maybe this is something that's going away with the times? Hope they will have fennel on the way out. *update they didn't but that's OK. They had candy. :)

We got two for the table of three but honestly one would have sufficed so keep that in mind. The naan is incredible which is of course the most important part. I loved the experience here!

I visited Mylapore South Indian Vegetarian while in Folsom and it quickly stood out as a restaurant…read morethat focuses on authentic South Indian flavors rather than trying to adapt the cuisine for a broader audience. The menu is entirely vegetarian and centers on traditional South Indian dishes such as dosa, idli, vada, and thali platters. One of the highlights of the experience was the dosa. The crepe itself was thin and crisp with a light golden color, while the filling had well-balanced spices that added depth without overwhelming the dish. Another standout element is the accompanying chutneys and sambar. These sauces play an important role in South Indian cuisine, and the restaurant provides multiple chutneys that add different layers of flavor ranging from coconut to spiced lentil preparations. The thali is also worth mentioning. It presents a variety of small dishes on a single plate, allowing you to experience multiple flavors and textures in one meal. It is a great way to explore different aspects of South Indian cooking. The restaurant itself has a casual and welcoming atmosphere that fits the style of the food. Many diners appear to be regular customers who come specifically for the authentic flavors. Service during my visit was efficient, and the kitchen kept dishes moving quickly even during busy periods. Overall, Mylapore South Indian Vegetarian offers a strong representation of traditional South Indian cuisine in the Folsom area. If you enjoy dosa, idli, and other regional specialties, this is definitely a place worth visiting.
