It comes with basmati rice and bread. For gluten-free, they have the Makki ki roti, made with corn. Mango Chutney is a sweet mango jam. Good for soothing the palate when the dish is spicy. The prices are lower than those at some other restaurants. I appreciate it when they have vegan dishes.

It's great food, and the person who helped me, spoke to me in the kindest way. Legit place... so the food... I got Butter Chicken, and a Korma, packed with a container of rice. Honestly, it's solid good tasting food. It's not a Michelin restaurant, but honestly, you sometimes just want something delicious and non-pretentious, that this place delivers that. There are so many restaurants in Vancouver that deliver, and at the end of the day, this checks the boxes in so many ways (at least our takeaway did) that when I come back into town again, it's on the list for a family dinner.

It was clearly once a (Chinese) seafood restaurant at one point, as the holes for the seafood tanks are still around. Staff are friendly and helpful. No complaints. Chicken 65 - nice and spicy. It's more of a dry recipe compared to other places. In other words, there isn't much sauce. Served with a basic salad. Goat pepper fry - chunks of goat (bone in) with cilantro, served on a leaf. Pretty tasty. Nice juicy marrow. Cindamani chicken - a bit more sauce than expected. Basically not much different from a chicken curry. In any case, nice and tasty. Friends and I left happy.

So, what do you do if you are craving for scrumptious chow anytime after midnight till the start of…read morethe witching hour at 3 AM when in or around Vancouver ? Forage in your fridge or pantry? BZZZZTT! Wrong! The right answer is to set out for a late night traffic-free drive and head straight to the aptly named Dosa Factory. Or, for the not-so-outgoing kind, order delivery via Uber Eats. Been there, done that! Foodie Factor: Each and every dish that we have had the pleasure of trying here has been delish, from the perfect Medhu Vada (the right level of crispy on the outside and tender on the inside), the oh-so-tasty Onion Rava Masala Dosa with Paruppu Podi (sprinkled generously with gun powder), the Gobhi Manchurian (so so good that it got me nostalgic!), the yummy goat biryani, the different flavorful curries, the spot-on green Coconut Chutney and Sambhar, to the refreshing Indian coffee. Top off the sumptuous meal with mukhwas or sugar-coated saunf (fennel seeds) when you visit the counter to pay the bill, and the entire end-to-end Desi meal experience is complete! Service with a Smile: What best complements the delicious food on offer here is the fantastic, friendly and prompt service, even at 1 AM! Hats off and kudos to Bhakti and co. for serving us hungry souls post-midnight, not just with yummy chow but also with their genuine smiles :) Ambiance & Vibe Check: Given the mostly Desi crowd at all hours from day to night, the babble of conversations, the quality cuisine being served, plus the ambiance and decor with larger-than-life frames containing snippets of India's culture and its monuments, it's perfectly reasonable to feel as is you've been transported to the country itself for the entirety of your visit! Talk about a holistic and immersive meal experience which is great for dates, group meetups, and even solo treats! Parking Pain or Perk: Parking along Kingsway during rush hours is no cakewalk, and the limited street parking makes it a tad bit challenging. Cue, one or more times of circling the block! If you do get lucky, rest assured that parallel parking to fit into a tight spot by the busy road will whet your appetite (though you might lose it in a jiffy if you make a dent on the street before getting to make one on the plate!) Bang for Your Bite (Value/ROI): Given the good portion sizes along with the quality of food and service, plus unlimited bottled water, you get a fair deal for the price you pay without feeling like you're splurging. Be mindful though that the EBTT syndrome (read, Eyes Bigger Than Tummy) will ensure that you end up ordering way more than you had planned to, so it's more likely than not that you will get an inflated bill with leftovers to take home. Clean-o-meter: The place is pretty neat, thanks to the attentive cleaning staff who are constantly on their toes, attending to plates and tables that warrant their attention. The restrooms were A-OK. All in all, my mother would approve, I think! Overall: Needless to say, I'll be back here soon, risking the EBTT and ensuing food coma, just to enjoy the food-induced high! Highly recommend! *BURP*

Sula was enjoyable overall, though this visit was a little more uneven than our previous one…read more The standout was the Chicken 65--easily the best dish of the night. The chicken was tender, deeply flavorful, and worked especially well with the blend of sauces. I preferred the spicier sauce preparation, which had the most depth and punch. The chicken momos were our next favorite appetizer: flavorful, satisfying, and easy to share. The Dahi Puri was refreshing, particularly with the cool yogurt, but it felt like it was missing one extra element of flavor or texture to give it the elevated punch of the other appetizers. Among the larger dishes, the Mangalorean chicken ghee curry was solid, rich and nicely spiced. The Marvai Gassi mussels were also good, with a brighter tang that made the sauce interesting. The Adraki lamb chops were more inconsistent. One was very good, while another had a noticeably stronger, almost mutton-like flavor that didn't quite match the enthusiastic recommendation from our server. Cocktails followed a similar pattern. The spicy Laguna Lime margarita was very good--bright, flavorful and a particularly good match with the food. The Nimbu Garden gin cocktail was pleasant but comparatively subdued and fell a little flat. Service throughout was pleasant, attentive and never rushed, which made for a relaxing meal. Our previous visit had been quite packed and energetic. This time, arriving as happy hour transitioned into dinner, we had considerably more space and could enjoy the colorful atmosphere without the room becoming overwhelming. It was a much better setting for conversation. Interestingly, our previous meal at Sula was stronger overall when we focused more on the mains and curries, which may be where the kitchen shines brightest. There were still some excellent bites this time--particularly the Chicken 65--and plenty to bring us back, but the experience was somewhat more mixed than our first visit. Enjoy!

On the table, we had: Chicken Vindaloo Dosa Gongura Cheese Masala Dosa Mini Cheese Dosa (from the Kids menu) Gongura was a new word for us, so we had to inquire about that one. The waitress explained that it was a type of salty spinach. My husband heard her clearly but somehow I missed the word "salty" when she was speaking and so when I started eating my food I was quite surprised with how salty the dish was. It was a bit too salty for my taste, so I wasn't too crazy about this dish. Not something I'd order again. My husband on the other hand tried my dish and loved it! He said he would order it for himself the next time he comes to the restaurant. Our daughter's Mini Cheese Dosa was quite impressive. It looked more like a regular size Dosa than a "Mini" Dosa! While I wasn't too crazy about the Gongura filling in my Dosa, the rest of the Dosa was still excellent. The Dosa itself was nicely done, and I would absolutely come back to this restaurant and try a different flavor next time.

I cannot say enough about the food taste, quality, and price!…read more My first experience was because of Yelp and delivery reviews. I ordered a very basic meal to see. Masala dosa, sambar, and parotta. Some of the best I've had! So I returned with a Friend a few nights ago to order a quick takeout (2X sambar, 2X parotta). We did have to wait 15 minutes which is great because you know you're getting fresh food. The sambar was quite a lot smaller than last time, as was the parotta. Still great quality. But disappointed my previous order made 2 meals when ordered through delivery app. When in person, portions were 1/2. Staff were very friendly and I believe the owner came up to us to chat. Nice! I still highly recommend! Apparently they have a weekend buffet as well, though the chafing stations I saw only held 12 various sized small to medium dishes. Would I order again? In a heartbeat! Would I question the portion sizes to the owner on my next visit? Absolutely!!! Why do I get 2X the portions when ordering through delivery app rather than in person? But still, I rank this the best sambar I've had in Vancouver (next to my own).
