Love their " STEAMED RICE DU.PLINGS " / a k a. "" IDLIS "" ...STEAMED Fresh & Hot served with SAMBAR Lentil Curry, Coconut Chutney & Hot Tomato Chutney. Always a Good Vegetarian Restaurant. Carrot Halwa / Grated Carrit Dessert - Good Taste, but not a Great Quantity ! Thus the 4 Stars !!!
Have Eaten - In Before. Madras Coffee is Good !!!!

Their ' SAMBHAR ' , South Indian Lentil Soup on the Side is EXQUISITE ' !!! It had quartered squash in there & roasted black mustard seeds !!! All the Chutneys were Gr8 as were the ' Vada ' ( Fried Lentil Donuts ). The ' Curried Potato Filling inside the Dosa / Crepe was good as well, but the Dosa / Savory Crepe could be more ' Brown ' to my liking.
All in All though their South Indian Vegetarian Cuisine is a ' Gift to Downtown Berkeley '. Quite Unique. Have dined in and had their Thaali combination Lunch Plate & Madras Coffee.
The place is a Gem & Staff are Friendly & Obliging.
Highly recommend this ' Local Small Business' post Covid - 19 for genuine South Indian Cuisine !!!!

2 Piece Samosa were very good. The Spinach Masala Dosa were packed cut in half on top of each so they stuck together and completely came apart. The Kadhai Bhindi was over cooked and extremely salty. I threw it away

I have eaten - in before ....but this was not the best dd delivered meal !!!
Firstly the Dosa Crepe was ' Very Light White as Opposed to Golden Brown ', Potato filling okay, but coulda been better with few tomato peels and ' Curry Leaves / aka Kari Patta '.
Vada Lentil Donuts looked okay, but the oil they were fried in 3as either stale, or low quality. Weird odor n flavor !!!
Normally their Cuisine is good. No idea what happened. I woulda waited longer if needbe.
Am a regular with them !!!!
