Took my friends and family from out of state to this place for impressing South Indian food with authentic taste .. all the dishes we ordered was tasty and reminded me of having street food in Madurai .. favorite was idicha chicken with parotta, appam with mutton curry n coconut milk, chicken fried rice!! Mutton Biryani was nice too but the meat should be cooked even softer, was little chewy for me.. :) dessert - wheat halwa was great !

Interesting place as they do catering. Folks seem to come in not sure how to order. Every one of us go up to the counter to order expecting to pay and they say pay after. The food is interesting. It's what I wanted in terms of variety. Will come back to try other things. The best part is nothing has filler. All the food is natural.

Perhaps the best Indian food I've ever had. Amazing rich/deep flavors. The Parotta was the right thickness. Flavorfully, and serves fresh. The Mango Lassi was waaaay too thick to drink with a straw, but it helped cut the heat of the curry nicely. Not the nicest place to look at, but the food more than made up for it. I'll be back if I'm ever in town again.

We ordered takeout from here. We got Idly with fish curry, Fish 65, and egg kothu paratha. The food is extremely spicy here, so if you can't handle the heat, then stay away from this place. I had to dilute the curry with yogurt to make it palatable, but that's just me; I can't handle the spice. My husband, on the other hand, does appreciate spicy food and enjoyed it. Good selection of items on the menu, and food is usually ready quickly.

We got the non-veg thali which was really good (it is unlimited and is only served on the weekend). It came with chicken 65, chicken curry, fish curry, veg kurma, lentil curry, rasaam, pickles, plantain chips, rice, buttermilk and of course papadam. We were confused if it served chapathi or parotta as well with it. Some people had it with the thali and some didn't (I am in that group that didn't get it with it). Every single item in that non-veg thali tasted so good. We had take out with them as well during the weekday. I was surprised they put coffee in the bag, I wish they asked if we wanted it in the bag or if we wanted to carry them. I would of preferred to carry my coffee. The service for the unlimited thali was really good. They are fast and efficient. The place is small. They have 2-3 tables outside. And it's first come first serve. But the maximum amount of time anyone had to wait when I was there was at most 5 min. There is no music, which is great because I want to hear the people that I came to the restaurant with.
