Mylapore - Folsom - Menu - Indian Near Me - Folsom, California

Tasted like home food. They have Indian flavor ice creams. Great service. highly recommended.

The food is South Indian style and is amazing. Our friend introduced us and we are fans. We had dosas, and the most amazing Chana masala. We were hungry and I sadly didn't take pictures. There are apparently many locations in the Bay Area and even one in Atlanta that I can't wait to visit. read more

Full disclosure, I've only stopped here for to-go coffee and chai while waiting for Belly BBQ to open BUT I need to come back for food because I've heard amazing things and it always looks and smells so good whenever I visit. The restaurant is spacious and there are always lots of people there when I visit. They can accommodate different size groups and are open starting at 8am and serve some amazing looking breakfasts. As I mentioned, I have stopped here multiple times for coffee and chai to sip on while waiting for their neighboring business to open and I keep coming back for more. I always head right to the counter/ the line to the counter to order and the staff is very friendly and efficient. The chai is pre-brewed, but for coffee they'll ask you how strong you'd like it. I always say strong! They serve it up and have sugar and everything for you to customize your sweetness. I added a bit of sugar to my chai, but I love their coffee plain. I'll need to update this when I stop for food- but I love the vibes, the friendliness, and the coffee is the perfect morning pick-me-up! read more

Mylapore is a hidden gem for authentic South Indian vegetarian food! From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place focuses on traditional flavors done right. Everything we tried was fresh and flavorful. We ordered the rava dosa, VIP and filtered coffee--both were excellent--and were even sent off with two delicious desserts: kheer and rava kesari! The service is quick and very friendly, which made the experience even better. If you're looking for authentic, delicious South Indian food, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'll absolutely be coming back! read more

Folsom location is wonderful . Staff is great ! Food , music and TV . What else you want ! We love the mega combo . read more

OMG, this was our first visit to this restaurant, and we were absolutely amazed by the hospitality and the food! My wife was craving dosa and ended up having two plates because it was that good! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The restaurant was super busy, which says a lot about how popular it is. Definitely one of the best vegetarian restaurants in town. Highly recommended! read more

I recently went to an Indian wedding that opened up my taste buds to a whole new world of cuisine -- South Indian vegetarian food! I loved everything that I tried, but many of the plates were ones not typically offered at your standard local Indian restaurants, so I was thrilled to hear about Mylapore. We got the Ghee Masala Dosa which was incredibly fragrant with an ideal delicate airy texture, and came out looking absolutely massive... I didn't expect to finish the whole thing but less than 10 minutes later, only crumbs were left :3 I think my favorite dish of the night though was the idly/pongal/vada combo-- the pongal was especially homey and comforting, warming up my soul on an unusually frigid 40-degree evening in Sac. Admittedly most items here are pretty carb-heavy, so it was nice that our items each came with a side of lentil soup to balance out the meal. Ambiance is casual, fast-food/cafeteria style making it great for families with kids, which was the predominant demographic we saw dining in tonight. While Folsom is the OG location, they have a handful of locations scattered throughout the Bay area with their newest location set to open soon in Sunnyvale. Fingers crossed they open a Sac location someday so I can satisfy my South Indian food cravings on a more regular basis! Pro-tip: if you're visiting during the holiday season, Ledgemont Court is only a 10 min drive away where you can take a nice little post-dinner stroll to walk off all those carbs while enjoying holiday lights :^) read more

Great service, fast service and excellent food. No complaints, and fast seating. Great vibe and ambiance.

great food. Prompt service. We had food on Saturday afternoon. Good service inspite of rush.

It was my first time, and I pass by here all the time. We had an okay experience. The food we ordered were amazing! Got the special mylapore dosai and I really liked the fillings and the sides it came with. We also got the mega tiffin, which was kind of similar to the mylapore special. Wish we had ordered a different dish to try out different things in the menu. The staff forgot our masala chai and mango lassi drinks but understandably so because they were busy during dinner hour. Overall, this place is really clean, nice music, lots of parking! read more

This place has a lot of interesting options, as it is south Indian cuisine specifically so we were not familiar with that many dishes. Due to this, I wanted to try the lunch Thali which is a sampler plate of 9-10 different curries and small dishes, plus rice and a puffed cracker. Out of these, I loved the potatoes and the sweet cornmeal dessert. Also tried out a dosa, which is like an Indian version of a thin crispy crepe served with curries. The one I got tasted of sesame and I enjoyed it a lot! read more

The food here is amazing and so filling. Everything is vegetarian and they have quite a bit of vegan options as well. The lunch platter came with sooo much rice and side curry's and what not. They brought extra of anything you finished which was nice. Lots of people show up for the lunch platter around 12/12:30 so if you'll want to come early as they will run out sometimes. The atmosphere is family friendly there were many families enjoying a meal together and all the servers were so nice and accommodating. I would deff recommend this place for authentic Indian cuisine. I'll be back to try more things next time read more

We went for dinner on Saturday night around 6:30 PM and the restaurant was getting busy. We were lucky to be seated immediately although we had 6 people in our group. We ordered the food at the cashier and the server brought out the food quite fast afterward. - Samosa: good. The crust was crispy and the filling was well seasoned. It was quite spicy. - Samosa chaat: good. The spice was very good. The samosa crust gave nice crunch to the dish. - Dosa: dosa was crispy and delicious. The lentil side dish (sambar) was just okay. The chutney was good too. - Rice kheer: good but a bit too sweet for me. The rice was succulent. The kheer was creamy and very sweet. read more

The food was so delicious, fresh, flavorful, and authentic. Every dish we ordered was excellent. It's. A special 5-star shoutout to our server, Tamil Selvan. He was outstanding! He was incredibly friendly, attentive, polite, and welcoming throughout our entire visit.

Very Disappointing Experience We arrived at Mylapore before 6:00 PM. The gentleman at the reception asked us to sit on the bench and handed us the menu. Since happy hour was about to end, I tried to place our order immediately, but he told me to wait. He continued talking with another customer, and when I finally got his attention, he took our order around 6:03 PM. I asked about the happy-hour offer, and he simply told me, "It's already over. It's 6 o'clock." What was frustrating was that I had been trying to place the order before 6:00 PM, but I was repeatedly asked to wait while he continued talking. If the restaurant has a time-sensitive offer, customers should be given a fair opportunity to order before the deadline. This was one of the worst customer-service experiences I've had. The communication was very disappointing and felt misleading. I would not recommend this place based on my experience. read more

This place is squeaky clean and the aesthetics are soooo pretty. We went on a Thursday afternoon, so we beat the rush. The dosa's are were so good, we ordered one more to go and another to eat there. Even with eating one full one, you're still going to crave some more! Definitely recommend this place to anyone who is craving South Indian, superb place and will for sure satisfy your cravings! read more

Great South Indian food. All vegetarian. My favorites are filter coffee and masala dosa.

Walking into chaos is how I would describe this place. The seating capacity does not make sense, you shouldn't have to wait in line twice, once to get a seat and then get back in line to place a food order, which then takes 30-40 min to get, so now you have a place of people just sitting and waiting. There definitely needs to be improvements here. The food looks okay but nothing I would wait over an hour for. Lots of dosa places around town. The workers looked stressed because people are complaining, about tables and seating and since there is no ordering at the table you have to get back up to order additional items. So potentially a third time in line. It's noisy , overall clean but just hectic. read more

Sambhar and filter coffee wasn't like other Mylapore/Idly express places. Wasn't good. Also, Very less jain options. read more

I don't understand these reviews. Given the sheer number of positive reviews including some that said that the food was so good that they felt they had died and gone to heaven, husband and I went here with lots of expectations and were mostly disappointed. First, their system is unclear - do you order and then get seated or do you get seated first? No clear instructions are provided. Second, once you figure out that you order first and then get seated, the wait to get the food is quite long. The servers looked exhausted. I don't know if this restaurant was extra busy today because of memorial day or if this is their norm. If it is their norm, they really need more servers because the ones working the floor today looked like they needed a break yesterday. Third, the food comes out in bits and pieces. Every single table, including ours, had one item that had come out first and people waiting for more food or everyone sharing the single item that did come out. This is haphazard planning. You will get more customer satisfaction if you get all the orders for each table together. Now onto the actual food - hubby ordered Mysore masala dosa and I ordered the onion tomato chili uttapam. Overall the food was very average. I have been to south Indian restaurants before where I have been blown away. I was not blown away here. It is fine. Nothing wrong, just nothing to rave about. The Mysore masala dosa was quite plain with very little powder on the inside. What bothered both my husband and I most was the quantity of the masala. The quantity was probably enough for 4 bites of the dosa. That is not a masala dosa. Please put more masala in your dosas! The taste of the masala itself was also average. Dosas, especially masala dosas, are usually very filling. This one was not and husband was still hungry when my uttapam finally came. The uttapam was also pretty average. I expected it to be filled with onions, tomatoes and chilis but it was not. There were two uttapams in the plate which was actually nice because one would not have been sufficient for me, let alone my still hungry husband. Among the accompaniments, the chutneys were decent and the sambar was good, but the quantities were also very less on each of them. Our filter coffees were completely different from each other. Husband's was good - decent amount of coffee powder, exact amount of milk and froth. Mine had some much more milk that it appeared almost white. Needless to say, I was disappointed with the coffee. All in all, we would have been way more disappointed with this place if we had to wait 30+ minutes for a table and then eat the quality of food we had. I don't know if there are better south Indian restaurants in Sacramento, but this is definitely not high up on my list of good south Indian restaurants across California. read more

Food was delicious and very authentic with great service. Would definitely come again!

I visited Mylapore South Indian Vegetarian while in Folsom and it quickly stood out as a restaurant that 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. read more

Folsom Mylapore Express never disappoints. The food is consistently delicious, authentic, and fresh. A big shout-out to Rajeevan -- his service is exceptional. He's warm, attentive, quick to help, and makes every visit feel welcome. You can tell he genuinely cares about customers, and it shows. Highly recommend! read more

Food is outstanding 10/10 and the service is even better! Rajeevan and Mayank were both very friendly and explained the menu to me because I'm new to South Indian food. My interactions with them were very pleasant and I felt compelled to give them a shout out directly in this review. This is my new go to place when I am in Folsom, looking forward to bringing my friends and family here. read more
