Great South Indian food - Edit
Love that they have clearly marked vegan menu and the staff is also knowledgeable of what is vegan. Food is great and at a great price. Would definitely go here again!

Gringo raves - Edit
I love Mylapore so much. Whenever I come to town it is top of my list. The Samosa Chaat is one of my favorite dishes here. If you are vegan you must try this gem. I knocked them a star because ordering vegan is difficult online, currently there is no way to tell what is vegan or not via their website or other ordering apps. I hope they change this soon! We had to call to confirm our choices were vegan and we let their friendly staff know.

Cons: Doesn’t specify vegan options online

Good it’s vegetarian, but not necessarily healthy - Edit
Limited menu now with variations of idly dosa and some uttapam. Idly should be fluffier and softer. Chutneys are a bit too salty. Same for podi dosa - had to share off the salty spice. Good friendly service. Something lacking in ambiance for dining in.

Cons: Can be salty depending upon item, Average taste

Vegan right of passage. Don't miss this place! - Edit
This restaurant takes me straight to southern India, from the music to the friendly staff, and unique food. This place has it all, and is a right of passage for any vegan food lover. Ask for the vegan menu and order anything off of it and you will be impressed guaranteed. I've eaten Indian food all over the country, and this is my favorite restaurant. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

Great surprise right off the highway - Edit
Stopped here on my way to the Bay for work, came back with my family soon after. They had an entire menu of vegan-specific items and many choices from both southern and northern Indian styles. The prices are very reasonable and the food is very good.
Read morePros: Vegan menu with wide variety of choices, Good food with plenty of flavor, Great prices
Cons: Not all vegan (they serve animal secretions), Some dishes are uninspired (skip the pakora), A bit too spicy (and we normally love spicy)

Vegan Oasis in Folsom - Edit
I've had half a dozen or so awesome meals here. Favorites are a "spring roll" dosa filled with cauliflower, bell pepper & carrot (dosas are savory crepes, made with a batter of lentils & rice) & fried flatbread with garbanzo curry. To the commenter complaining about the language barrier, seems odd you would order one of the few obviously not vegan item since over a dozen are marked. Service is fast enough & polite enough, go for the food :)

Just so-so food, questionable vegan - Edit
I rode my bike up from Sacramento (about 30 miles each way) so was looking forward to a filling lunch for the ride back.
Read moreThe Sunday afternoon lunch service was quite busy: most of the tables were occupied. Perhaps 12-15 tables inside, and another four to six outside on the patio.
The service was friendly, but didn't totally grasp what vegan is. When I asked if they have a vegan thali (none was listed on the menu) he assured me they did.
It came out with a couple suspect items, including one that I'm nearly sure had dairy in it. When I (politely) inquired, he assured me it is vegetarian, the whole restaurant is vegetarian. I clarified that I wanted to know if it is vegan, or if it has milk or butter in it. He again assured me it is vegetarian, vegan. In fairness, there was something of a language barrier, and I didn't press further, just didn't eat that dish.
The quality of the other items on the thali was just so-so: slightly bland, mostly uninteresting. The rice was dry. The poori tasted and felt like it had been pre-made well in advance, fried in large batches, and left to sit until someone ordered it. (When punctured, it didn't steam.)
It was relatively inexpensive (weekend thali is $9.99) but because of mediocre quality, it was just an okay buy.
Unfortunately Folsom just doesn't have many good vegan options, so I might return and try something clearly marked on the menu as vegan, but I certainly wouldn't go out of my way. Or I might just go to Chipotle. [Sad face.]
Pros: inexpensive
Cons: questionable vegan, somewhat bland

Fresh, Good Vegetarian Food. - Edit
I have been living in Folsom for the past 10 years and finally I found a good Vegetarian restaurant with a lot of Vegan options. I am a regular here every week. I like the fresh quality. The thali is my favorite. The thali vegetables change everyday which is very good. It is a very inexpensive restaurant and a meal costs about $8. Check it out.
Read morePros: Fresh, Inexpensive, Great Taste
Cons: Small restaurant.
