About

Cuisine Arya serves traditional South Indian dishes characterized by deep, authentic spices and careful preparation. The kitchen creates crispy dosas and light, fluffy idli alongside savory vadas and aromatic biryani that capture the essence of home-style cooking. Every plate relies on fresh ingredients to build complex layers of flavor throughout the menu. The preparations prioritize genuine, traditional textures and tastes, maintaining a focus on simple and honest food profiles. While the current recipes deliver a distinct and bold profile, there is an ongoing movement toward minimizing artificial coloring to let the natural colors of the spices shine through. This establishment provides a straightforward and reliable connection to the heart of South Indian heritage through its diverse, well-spiced, and aromatic offerings.

I went there on march 5. I spent almost 21 dollars & ended up taking a few bites & throwing the rest once I got home. I ordered the chicken 65. It tasted very bad.

The guy working there doesn't speak good english so it is hard for him to give details about the menu. I wanted chicken biryani, it was not available.

Also, some creepy man came up behind me. I dont know if he wanted to harass me or steal something from me but I felt someone behind me & the worker was just watching & did not care or say anything. I got scared. I did not feel safe.

I do not recommend this place !!

Took the combo of masala dosa with idli,
Chutney & sambhar were nice, idli was soft (not fresh)
The dosa was slightly overcooked, & very thin.
