i don't usually write reviews about restaurants, but i was so upset with this restaurant that i felt the need to tell other wishing to dine in there. my friend and i had went to enjoy a good dinner from this place since we've heard many good things about this place but our experience turned out the complete opposite to what expected. we got seated in a long table setting (with little tables connected to eachother), so we had one of the little tables to ourselves. others that were sat next to us were literally so close we were touching elbow to elbow. it was so awkward. we had ordered two appetizers (the masala dosa and idly) and then 2 lassi (mango lassi and sweet lassi) as well as our main dishes to come after the appetizers. we were seated before the other two couples sitting next to us and they had gotten their drinks and utensils before we had. we obviously understood it was a rush and kindly let them know we were waiting on our drinks as well. later, both the tables got their appetizers and we were just here patiently waiting for our own, because we aren't the type to bug the waiters while they're working. i myself work in a restaurant and was more patient because of how i've experienced busy days. it was a busy day, but they were plopping people anywhere they could find a place so they could give them cold food and shitty service and then expect tips in the end. going back to our dinner, we finally received 1 out of the 2 appetizers and i had also asked the waiter if the other one was one its way as it had already been 25 minutes for us just waiting on our appetizers. she had assured me it was coming soon so we decided to wait for its arrival before we start eating, since i didn't want to be rude and start eating before the person i had came with had gotten their appetizer. it was 10 minutes already waiting for the second appetizer so we ended up sharing the one that we had in front of us. at this point we've been waiting 35 minutes for the second appetizer and we were quite annoyed that it hadn't come and neither did our lassi drinks that we had ordered. the waiters came by with our main dishes and we were confused as to why the second appetizer hadn't come. one of the waiters told me that they could "leave the food in the kitchen until our appetizer comes" and this is where they were exceeding my tolerance. i told the waiter that we've been waiting 35 minutes for our drinks and an appetizer and we'd just take the food for now. they gave us our drinks in the middle of us almost having finished dinner and then the manager came with the dosa and said it would be on the house. we were not looking for free food, just getting our food on time would've been nicer than watching the people next to us eat and leave already. the manager tried putting it on our table but there was no room for the dosa whatsoever and he slid it on to the table next to us, who were very upset themselves as they had no room for their dishes either. when the table had left, the waiter came to clean the table and took our utensils along with theirs and had mixed our water glasses so we had to get new glasses(which took 5 mins to reach us). we had asked for two more roti which came to us in 15 minutes. this was absolutely the worst service i have ever had. when it came time to leave, we asked for the bill and the waiter (who was rather rude and impatient) told us to go to the front, and i had said that i would just like to see it and he said go to the front. no manners and no etiquette. we went the front and when we got the bill, the dosa that was supposed to be on the house was still on the bill, and then i had to verbally explain to the cashier that their manager had put it on the house. when he heard it, he was giving so much attitude towards my friend and i. i did not feel the need to tip as the service was terrible, very terrible. i do not recommend this place to anyone.

great hours! it's perfect for my late appetite. their butter chicken is absolutely delicious. portions are great to share. i tried their spinach and cheese dosa which came with a couple sauces that went very well with it. the service was very good both times i've ever eaten here.

i've bookmarked this place for years now and i finally got to check it out on dosa mondays! hooray for $5.99 dosas! after reading many reviews, i decided on the palak paneer dosa (spinach and paneer) and chicken 65, and i'm so glad i did! the dosa crepe was nice and crispy. the spinach filling was delicious when topped with the spicy, red sauce provided on the side. service was attentive even though there was only one person working in the front of the house and the place was packed! kudos to that guy! highly recommended!

i rarely ever go out for indian food but i've heard so many things about house of dosas that i just had to try it! i've never had a dosa before but i'm quite the crepe lover so i knew that i would love it. they had so many varieties to choose from that i had trouble settling on one because they had so many vegetarian options but i finally decided to go with  the masala dosa which was filled with a flavorful, spicy potato mixture. it also came with a few dips to go with it. i would definitely come back and now that i know about their $6 monday special? definitely coming back on monday next time!

what's better than a kick-ass curry? a kick-ass curry stuffed inside a rolled-up crepe, obviously . a specialty of southern india and sri lanka, this delectable dish is called a dosa . it's basically a pancake made out of rice and fermented lentils filled

i ordered a beef curry dosa and one of my friends ordered the eggplant curry. we shared so that we can try more dishes. when the orders arrived after 10 minutes, i was pleasantly surprised at the size. it was a large generous serving and both looked and smelled delicious!

we ordered chicken biryani for the take away. it had the taste of south indian biryani. i did not like it much as i am not used to that taste of biryani but my wife liked it very much.

we ordered gunpowder dosa and madras dosa (both chef’s special). both were accompanied by tomato chutney, coconut chutney, sambhar, vada and idli. the portion size were large and food was fresh and served hot. the good thing about the place is it’s open late nights. in terms of taste the food was average as i have had better dosa’s in past. but i would like to go back and try something else.

this is an amazing place whenever you crave for great dravadian delights! i simply loved the “gobhi 65” its a must try! great starter, very crispy, a very good options for all the vegetarians! it was served with chilly dip and had a fusion flavour of indo chinese food.
uttapam was equally good, sambar was just perfect with the blend of spices, sourness, and that signature aroma..
at a very low price u can get amazing dosas(crepes with potato filling) served with great sambar and delicious coconut chutney!
mondays are the best time to go there for dinner as they have special deals on this day.

stumbled upon this place by accident and were surprisingly pleased with what was on offer. the variety in their menu struck us and their daily specials looked enticing as well.

we started with the basic idli, vada and plain dosa. the food was excellent and quite tasty, relative to the standards back in india. it was nostalgic to experience the limca soft drink experience here.

for the main course, we decided to go with the crab curry special that day. it was served along with rice, a special type of bread (malabari paratha) and the gravy was damn delicious.

service was fast. staff were courteous and willing to help. ambience was minimalistic and the focus was firmly on making it a memorable experience for their guests through their food. highly recommended for authentic south i dian and sri lankan cuisine without burning a hole in your pocket.

food: 5/5
service: 4.5/5
ambience: 3.5/5
value: 5/5
