What our guests are saying
My friend suggested this restaurant and asked me to order the goat sukka and pepper fry chicken. At first I thought it’s the same everywhere, but trust mee once I tasted the food, it’s really good

On my way home, I stopped by this place to pick up food and ordered the goat sukka and pepper fry chicken. I’ve tried these dishes at many restaurants, but here they were absolutely good. The flavors were spot on, and everything was cooked perfectly. Compliments to the chef—definitely worth stopping by again.

Dosa night is amazing. For just $12, you get unlimited dosas with a very tasty sambar + chutneys. They have masala dosa, crispy paper dosa, and uttapam with authentic flavours. The vadas were crispy and soft. Simple and done well!
