It offers authentic vegetarian Indian cuisine, with many dishes being vegan or easily made vegan upon request. The Mysore masala dosa was delicious, boasting a perfectly crispy exterior and a flavorful filling. The Veg Manchurian was equally tasty. The dokla, served as a special, came with tamarind and coriander chutney, which was a nice touch. I appreciated the generous use of curry leaves, which enhanced the flavor of every dish. The spice level was a comfortable medium. I can't wait to return!

Plenty of chaat and main course options. read more Plenty of chaat and main course options.

I ordered the chole bhature, which is a deep-fried bread served with garbanzo beans in a spicy sauce. Be sure to specify that you want "no milk, paneer, or ghee." Paneer (Indian cheese) and ghee (clarified butter) can be easy to overlook, as they are such common ingredients in Indian cuisine, so people often forget to mention them. However, the staff at the counter are knowledgeable about all the ingredients, so as long as you clearly communicate your needs, you won't have any issues with your orders here.
