Odd venue, but delicious dosa - Edit
The ordering system is kind of weird here, we got directed to a table, then told to scan a QR code and order. The code directed us to order by ‘pick up’, until someone realised our table wasn’t officially open. I tried the masala dosa - it was amazing. Just a shake about the weird ordering system - let me order with a real person please.

Delicious - Edit
I ordered the makani Dahl, asked for a spicy one. One of the best Indian Dahl dishes I’ve had in ages. Really great menu, order from the qr on the table so plenty of time to decide. Definitely recommend

Delicious Dosa - Edit
We were delighted to find this vegetarian oasis in Auckland. In fact, it was easy if you asked any local. They all knew about this fabulous place and pointed us in the right direction. And Saravanaa Bhavan was open New Year's Day too! We ordered masala dosa and drooled over the other plates that went by as we waited for our food. Authentic batter, perfectly cooked and spiced filling, sambar (we asked for a second bowl), and three kinds of chutney. I really wish I took a photo - the plate was beautiful.

Cons: there were no cons in our experience

Authentic South Indian food - Edit
Fourth time and this place never fails to satisfy. Go for the South Indian options - idli, vada, dosa and uttapams - as they do it well and it's a nice change over the westernised curries in your average Indian restaurant.
Read morePros: Vegetarian with large selection of vegan options, Decent price
Cons: Can get crowded, especially on weekend nights

This was a great little find and I go here often. Lots of vegan options and really good, authentic dosas that are not expensive. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.
