Many vegan items, good food - Edit
Tasty food and not overly expensive. Lots of vegan and vegan-option items clearly marked on the menu. Everything tasty, and the servings are generous and satisfying. The "paper dosa" is a huge cone of thin, crisp rice-and-lentil pancake - break off pieces and dip in the sauce. There are vegetarian and vegan wines available.

Closed between 3:00 and 5:30 pm, open for lunch and for dinner.

Terrific Thali - Edit
Lovely food - had the vegan thali and a dosa - all tasted great. Service was a little slow but worth it for a really nice meal. Dosa is really recommended - tasted very fresh. Lots of good options.

Delicious South Indian food - Edit
Absolutely delightful. This branch is the cheapest as it's not right in central London. So many vegan options. I ordered the Sagar special dosa which came with delicious coconut chutney. My friends also ordered a variety of smaller dishes like aubergines. Would absolutely recommend it as a fan of South Indian food. The door, however, was always locked and each customer wanting to come in had to wait for a member of staff to open it.

Authentic South Indian - Edit
There are just so many exciting vegan options on this menu and the menu is very extensive including idli and dosa which I have rarely seen outside of India. If I lived in London I would visit regularly to explore all the dishes over time but just passing through I had to pick something so went for the (vegan) thali on the basis that I would get lots of dishes to try. The food was delicious- the flavours were delicate and beautifully balanced and there was more food than I could eat in one sitting (so I took the rest away to have for breakfast!) Very reasonable price too. If I’m in the area for any reason I will definitely visit again.

Not bad not great - Edit
Maybe my expectations were too high because of all the five star reviews. The atmosphere was nice, menu clear and many goodlooking vegan options. The food was a bit bland and terribly greasy. We had several fritters for starters, then an eggplant curry with pilav and dosa, along with mango lassi. Nothing stood out and all were served with the same sauces. Service was ok, but made no extra effort in any way. Removed our glasses the second they were empty, but dashed off before we got a chance to ask for new drinks. A terrible sewer smell came from the basement, where the restrooms are.

Great. - Edit
First visit to this branch, but I have dined at their Covent Garden branch often.
Read moreVery pleased with the welcome, the service and speed of service, I requested my curries, Aloo Gobi and Channa Massla to be prepared piping hot and they arrived just that, the lemon rice was really nice so was the chappati.
Highly recommend this place.

👌👌👌 - Edit
The food here is incredible. I have had the vegan thali twice- be prepared cause it is big, but so tasty. Taste like authentic family food. The samosa are the best I’ve ever had - big fat ones with lots of filling. Friends had other dishes, and cleared their plates. Attentive and efficient staff.

Authentic South Indian cuisine - Edit
Great vegetarian Indian restaurant with plenty of vegan options that cover most of the menu. Friendly staff. Nice interior that isn’t covered in blue LED lights. Brilliant tiffin trays that don’t cover the whole real estate of the table. Reasonably priced to boot. Highly recommend

Positive experience for the area - Edit
I’m normally very disappointed when I eat out in the area. I found very positive reviews for Sagar so I thought I would give it a go. Lots of vegan options and they were easy to identify. Low prices but good portions. Not the most beautiful place but the food made up for it. I would recommend!
Read morePros: Enough vegan options , Easy to identify what’s vegan , Good prices

They have now merged their menus so there's no longer a separate vegan menu, but all vegan dishes are clearly marked on the main menu.

First time I tried Indian food; pleasantly surprised - Edit
As a disclaimer, I don't know much about Indian food, but I found this nice restaurant through the HappyCow app. I was walking around London with a friend when we decided to try some of the famous dishes that we've heard vaguely about. I did cook Indian food before, like curry with coconut milk and ginger, but I didn't have something "authentic" to compare it to, so I thought this could be a good learning opportunity.
Read moreWe both agreed to order just vegan food which made me very happy. When we told the waiter (whom I have a feeling was also the owner because he was very attentive) we were interested in the vegan options, he gave us a separate menu. There was so much to choose from, but we decided on a starter and two types of meals, and he helped us with recommendations.
So, we got the famous samosas which we both enjoyed very much. The food was so fresh, warm, and flavorful, and the cashew sauce + the sweet sauce were awesome together.
Then we had the Masala Dosa, which was like a giant pancake filled with potato and carrot purée. I didn't recognize all the spices, but it was a nice combination of flavors. My friend didn't like this dish very much, but I thought the filling was interesting.
Finally (or, at the same time), we had a version of curry with spinach and potatoes (as main ingredients), and we also wanted to try some vegan bread and we ordered the poori, which was slightly sweet, quite oily (they were deep-fried) and tasted a lot like Romanian donuts. :)) Perhaps I won't order them next time, but the curry was delicious and hearty.
The food itself was interesting and new to us, and I'd definitely go back and try some other dishes.
