Tried Masala dosa in which was like a normal dosa which we get everywhere . Sambar and Chutney also had very nominal Taste and flavour . Nothing special . Fried idli was bette than normal idli. Normal idli was not soft . Filter coffee was also okay types . One time visit
Visited on Sunday morning for Brunch. After waiting for 20 mins without any que system got hold of a table. This needs to be improved & a proper que management needs to be done. Food - My review of food could be biased as I've been eating authentic South Indian cuisine since school at my South Indian friends. Onion Uttapam - Oily & average taste. Idly - 2 pieces per plate was very soft & good. Sambar was poor, Chutney very good. Onion masala Dosa - Oily & masala tasteless. Ghee Paper masala Dosa - Oily & masala tasteless. Wada - Average Fried Idly - Below average. Coffee - Average. Service & Staff - Very courteous & efficient. Atmosphere - Needs to be seriously upgraded, hand wash area to neat and clean. Location - Easily can be spotted. One request to the management - Please change the taste as this is ok for people who have not been to south India but this is not authentic considering the price. Will visit again to give a 2nd review. =========== My 2nd visit on a weekday at 9am. No crowd. Pody idly was good. Masala dosa was cold, most likely made for someone else and served me. Still I'm not convinced. Thet don't have that taste.
Very bad service & Irreseponsible manager, called 4 times in a day, for their service, for getting some information about Ona Sadhya for 200 people
