Review: Every time my brother and I go here we are the only white people on the restaurant. It really says something when Indians go to an Indian restaurant, since most of them are perfectly capable of making the dishes at home. This place is great since they offer both vegetarian and vegan dishes, and clearly label which is which. However, the spiciness of the food varies from lunch to dinner. Lunch is spicy, but you enjoy it. Dinner is beyond spicy, there should be a new level of hot to describe it, the food is delicious, but if you can't handle the heat go for the lunch. My brother described the dinner menu as "I think hell just erupted in my mouth, but in a delicious way."

Review: I love this place for Indian food. Honestly I don't know what I've ordered here by it's "official name" maybe "thali" but I tell the server I'm vegan and would like the veg combo plate.... and so far it has been fabulous each time. Sooo many little dishes that are all vegan AND tasty. I feel like a cow, so much to taste, so much I want to eat! The service is friendly and prompt. I live about 30 minutes away but the commute is worth it...everytime.
I must do the lunch buffet someday : )

 
Pros: Food Taste/ Texture/ Quantity * Food Variety/ Selection * Great Service
Cons: Only One Location * *

Review: This is the best place to get indian food in the valley! That's why I drive all the way from northwest glendale to eat here! I love coming for the lunch buffet because you can try a variety of foods and eat as much as you want!

Review: I went last week to Udupi Cafe. There are sooo many Vegan options on the menu. The Staff and Service were great, unfortunately we got to the restaurant rather late and had to cut our visit short but I definitely plan on re-visiting Udupi Cafe some time soon!!

Review: Hands down, best Indian I've ever had, and most of the menu is vegan. The spare decor is totally made up for by the sumptuous meals, great service, and accomodation kitchen.
 
Pros: friendly staff * great hours * amazing food

Review: I am shocked no one has reviewed this place yet. It seems like this place has die-hard fans and frequent return customers. Their daily all you can eat vegetarian buffets are phenomenal and their special weekend buffets and holiday buffets are even better. 100% vegetarian and the majority of their menu is vegan. Their menu is huge the service is awesome the people are great. AUTHENTIC INDIAN Some of the best food I have ever had. I eat their weekly I love it so much. I have brought my picky family and friends who are either non vegetarian or non-vegan and they loved it too. I have brought friends from vegetarian utopias such as SanFrancisco or New York and they think it's a real gem. I have yet to encounter an option on the menu that either I or a fellow patron doesn't like. I have eaten at many vegetarian restaurants in many different states and countries and Udupi makes me feel proud of where we live and restores confidence that we can compete with some of the more culturally affluent and intellectually progressive places of this world. I still can't believe I am the first to write a review . . . try the gobi manchurian, chilly gobi, or veggie biriyani!
 
Pros: Diverse menu * Large portions *
Cons: Menu can be intimidating 4 first timers * *
