Reviews
Really loved the food and vibe! Good made us feel closer to home and enjoy the subtle happiness. Highly recommend if you’re down to get a taste of authentic south Indian cuisine.
Read on Google MapsThe best Indian restaurant in Glasgow, their masala dosa is mushy try (with ghee or paneer, so good). The food is quite affordable. And lassi is quite nice but a bit pricey unless you get a jug, which I totally recommend if you're at least 3-4 people.
Read on Google MapsWe went with kids to this place. The staff are very attentive and pleasant. Variety of South Indian dishes were in the menu. We tried Malabar parotta, lamb dosa, chicken dosa and vikram Veda combo!! Malabar parotta is flaky and soft, with nice crispy edges. Exceptionally good. Perfectly matched with the chettinad lamb. Similarly both lamb and chicken dosa were excellent. The mix inside the dosa wrap was nicely infused with spices. And the signature dish “vikram vedha” combo also very delicious. Kids also enjoyed the food. I would say the price is also very reasonable. I would highly recommend trying this if you enjoy South Indian cuisine—it’s comfort food at its best. And the service is also super fast. While the place is on the smaller side, the quality of the food more than makes up for it.
Read on Google MapsExcellent food and service! The mix platter was amazing and affordable for single person. Quality and quantity of food were outstanding! Must try the kothu paratha. Madras dosa delivers perfect mixture of South Indian dishes
