We come here quite often for dosa, chicken 65 biryani & chicken 65. It is always very good in taste & quantity.

I had Idli Vada combo. Quantity less & Quality more seems to be the idea here. Vada has less oil, sambar & chutnies are thick, not watery. But the sizes of idli & Vada are not that big in comparison to other South Indian Restaurants, you wont feel full & will order more.

Decent indian restaurant in the heart of downtown Montreal. Tried the Mysore Masala Dosa, Chicken Masala Dosa, & the Medu Vada. The food was quite good. However, the service & ambience is just okayish. Service can be improved by maybe keeping someone at the front counter or having a bell to alert the staff at the back of house. Prices are on the lower side, so anyone can get decent value for what they pay.

A pleasant surprise in Montreal looking for authentic South Indian food. Salt lassi, vada/sambhar/ idli & chutney was excellent. Taste from chennai, was a great feeling & satisfying.
