Truly the best South Indian restaurant in the GTA.
You can try anything and everything here and not be disappointed ever. I hope they sustain the quality and pricing over the next decade as well. I just hope we had another similar brand to Oakville and Burlington, but even though this place is an hour away I don't mind travelling to this location at least once a month.
I've tried this a few times but posting pictures for what we had this weekend.
Paneer masala dosa, coriander masala dosa, Dahi vada (sweet) - which is my favourite by far, podi masala Uthhapam (which takes half an hour but totally worth it), idli vada combo.
The Rava Kesari was really delicious too. The filter coffee was piping hot and customised to our liking.
Kudos to the staff and management for running this place so well. I wish we had more such Indian restaurants that were run so smoothly and efficiently as this one.

Hands down one of the best South Indian Vegetarian restaurants in the entire freaking 🇨🇦 🍁 CANADA. I have tried so many Indian dishes placed in CANADA, especially in Ontario, but this is the place that took the cake. A must visit, they won't disappoint you but try to have a reservation because sometimes, no let of the times, it takes hours to get seated if you dont have a reservation. The prices are also very reasonable and I like it the most.

First time visiting after reading the amazing reviews. Definitely lived up to the hype. Service is extremely fast. We had a reservation for 8 and were seated immediately. Restaurant is extremely busy so I would recommend booking in advance. I believe you only have the table for a certain amount of time but it is totally understandable as they have very fast service. Food is super fresh and tastes great!

Must Try: Appetizer: Idly Main: Mysore Bhaji Dosa

We recently visited this place, which is quite popular for its South Indian food. While the food was decent, the overall experience was a bit disappointing because of some issues.

Even though we were walk-ins, they asked for our phone number, which didn’t really make sense to us. Then, instead of seating us at one of the empty tables, we were made to wait in another room. It felt more like a doctor's office than a restaurant! After that, someone came to take us to another spot, where we had to wait another 5 minutes.

The weirdest part was their rule that you need to finish your meal in 45 minutes, which felt really rushed and took away from the dining experience.

As for the food, the mini idlis were the highlight – really tasty! We also tried the dosa that was featured in the Toronto Star, but it didn’t quite live up to the hype.

Overall, I’d give it a 7/10. If their service wasn’t so frustrating, it could’ve easily been an 8.

I had a fantastic experience at this South Indian restaurant! The dosas were perfectly crispy, and the sambar had the right balance of spice and flavor. The staff was friendly, and the ambiance was cozy. Highly recommend their masala dosa and filter coffee for an authentic taste

Went with friends for a nice lunch. Started it off with Rasam and we followed it up with Mysore Dosa, Ghee Dosa, Onion Rava Dosa and Spicy Masala Uthapam amongst ourselves. The dishes were well prepped and we felt the chutneys were good enough. The service was prompt. Overall a nice visit!

A must must visit place when you come to Canada and specially Toronto area. It's worth to drive to this place eveb if you are away from 1 hours or so. One thing must to have better experience is to make reservations two days ago.

The food is absolutely amazing delicious so tasteful. Specially dont forget to try Rasam, and Spicy Sambhar Vada. For Dosa, you can try any and will never go wrong. Service is great and quick. staff is great . Quality never compromised.
It is a must must visit but makesure to make reservations day before. Great food.
