Great little south indian cafe

I liked the vegan dosa and the samosas I had a lot. Great menu for both vegetarian and vegan diets. Kitchen was a bit noisy when I was there, though, I must say. But for take-out, I would recommend it. Note that there is no service, so you order and pick up at the register.

Pros: Lots of south indian vegan options, decent prices

Cons: styrofoam and plastic waste (even for dine-in), not such great ambiance for dining in

Good taste

It's pure vegetarian restaurant but you need to ask for a vegan menu if you want as ghee is used in many dishes

Pros: Lots of options are available, Taste is really good , it's vegetarian, Ask for an additional vegan options

Cons: Price is fine could be better

Yum!

This place was so delicious! Some bad reviews on google had me weary to try it, but I just couldn't pass up on all the vegan options. I tried so many new dishes I've never had before, and I was not disappointed with any of them. My personal favorite was the bhelpuri- it's more of a snack than a main dish but it was so delicious and unique. This place is a must for any vegan who loves Indian food!

Pros: vegan af, delicious

Cons: no online ordering; must call to order

So so good!!

I’ve literally just signed up to HC just to write a review for this place! Such good food and so cheap! Super comforting, flavourful and authentic. My kids keep saying how amazing their food is too! We had the masala dosa and veg Manchurian with parathas and chapati. Friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. For sure come here!!

Pros: Excellent food, Incredible value

Friendly staff, nice food

Always happy to find a veggie Indian near where I’m staying, Reston, had the Veg Manchurian with gravey. Didn’t realise it came with rice so also ordered paneer uttapam. The Manchurian is veggie ball, cabbage and veg, in a spiced brown gravy, tasty. Didn’t particularly like the uttapam, little too starchy for me.
The restaurant is quite basic but there are toilets and plenty of seating.
Will come back.

Excellent Vegan Indian Food

The food here is delicious and the prices are great too! Not everything is vegan, but many are and are tasty. Go for the bhel puri, the rava masala dosa, and the vegetarian Manchurian dumplings. You won't be sorry!

Great food and service

They opened in January of 15. Has a very diverse South Indian menu with super yummy and spicy dosas. Try the rava onion masala dosa, it was spicier than the sambar but delicious! Most ideas are vegan and they are very accommodating. No vegan desserts though :(. They also have a great organic menu with many tofu and vegan sandwiches with veganaise. Overall, the place was very clean, the staff were wonderful, and the food was great! I will most certainly go back frequently.

Pros: Good South Indian selection, Great vegan sandwiches
