This is a really nice place to gave Dosas. They have a wide variety of Dosas and all of them are delicious. So far we have tried the Spring Onion Dosa, Mysore Masala, Rava Masala, Kanchipuram Kara Dosa and Chettinadu, Gongura varieties.
The Gongura Dosa was a bit too sour but i have never had this variety before, so I guess this is Authentic.
The chutneys and Sambar that accompany the dosas are wonderful and resemble the taste back in India.
The servers are really polite and suggest the good stuff.
The Restaurant has only flaw wherein the Shared parking is a bit stuffy and smelly.
Overall the restaurant gives you wonderful treatment every time and serves you good and authentic food. Have been here multiple times and will continue to come back every time i crave for Dosa.
Would also love to try their other varieties next time.

Amazing place with full of South Indian vegetarian food. Ordered South-Indian thali that was amazing in taste. Then ordered Chilli Cheese Masala Dosa and Garlic Mysore Masala Dosa both were hot and amazing in taste. Service was quick and ambience was good. Overall an amazing experience.

Food 5/5
Staff 5/5
Ambience 5/5

If you miss India and Mumbai street food then this is the place to visit! Right from the wadas to the bhajiyas and dosas and the chutneys and even the pav bhaji, the food here is closest to Mumbai food than any other restaurant I tried in Toronto/GTA. They have a vast menu with other south Indian food as well. It is reasonably priced and the servers are very polite. Must visit!

Great place for South Indian food in GTA! Though I live in downtown Toronto, I visit this place at least once a month when I miss India. The food is amazing and totally worth the travel.

Went here for a few occasions. Once to order a la Carte and another for their buffet. Both times were good tasting food.
Buffet food runs out quickly, and the staff try very hard to replenish the items, so it’s not bad if you have little patience to wait.
Quality of the food is good and not too oily. Worth a recommendation if you like authentic. South Indian food. My favs were bissebhala bhaat and their dosas.

Great place for South Indian food, when they are open, that is! Convenient location with free parking is a big plus. Food is delicious and authentic. Their South Indian thali is very good. Ambience is decent, service is good too. Servers don't smile, usually grumpy but the food makes up for this minus. Idlis, dosas are good too. Recommend this restaurant.

AWESOME PLACE WITH AWESOME FOOD BUT... it is almost always crowded. On a busy day you might have to wait to be seated. But again its busy because its famous and its famous for its delicious mouthwatering food and huge varieties of dosa. The food is worth that wait.
You can also call in and reserve a table but DON'T RELY ON RESERVATIONS. (Both times I reserved the table they apologized and said it has been given to people who were waiting there, even though i was there on time) but that doesn't qualify for taking out a star from the rating. Because delicious food is worth the wait. The place is not that big.
Also try the very innovative 'gadbad' dessert. Why is it called gadbad you will know once you try it.
PLEASE CHECK TIMINGS BEFORE YOU GO HERE. And avoid going at the edge of closing time. You might have to return back empty stomach. Give roughly about 10-15 mins to be seated.
DO NOT PAY FOR PARKING UNDERGROUND. Its free for restaurant visitors provided you register your plate number at front desk.

Happy Eating. Thanks.

This is probably my third visit and all of them have been before these apps came along. Secondly on the New Years Day at 11:30ish the group of us consisting of 27 of us including kids landed on this restaurant to have our brunch buffet. It became crowded after we started and people at UMC had set up and open a section for the additional crowd.

Tons of choice for the all vegetarian South Indian cuisine buffet. Idlis, Medu Wadas, Dosas, Goli Bhajias (fritters), Upma, Pongal, Sheeera, Curd Rice, Sambhar, Rasam, Bisi Bele Bhath.... so much and more.

Most of the dishes I tasted were done well. The dosas Crispy, the pooris freshly fried, the rices dishes well seasoned, the sambhar little thin for my taste, the rasam tangy and spicy at the same time. The channa Masala was a surprise-unlike the Punjabi version this tasted great with different spices and a good one not to miss.

Idlis you should miss. Were too grainy and not soft. The coffee as well which is a marquee for any South Indian restaurant was a 0.5/5 stars.

Would come back for sure if buffets were my thing.

Whenever we have visitors from US and India we mostly end up in their weekend Buffet. A must try wide spread only South Indian veggie Buffet in GTA. It is Centrally located , free underground covered parking, handicap access "
Very fresh, high quality and I truly feel honest food on the table.
Staff never rush you even though they are busy and very fast service.

I love their South Indian thali where they have Chaat items and Chole Batura. They are centrally and very convienatly located near Square one and downtown mississauga. One can enjoy the most Romantic view from their restaurant ( twin towers / Murlin Monroe towers ) from the Patio.
At the end I enjoy their Gad bad ice cream where my friend always sip their Madras coffee until last drop.
Some times we try their signature dosa like paav bhaji dosa , Munchurian Madurai , Paneer spring , chilli garlic masala , special onion rawa masala and cheese garlic dosa new live their coconut and tomato chutnies.

Loved the experience. This place is a hidden gem and far superior to other better known / more expensive joints for dosa and South Indian food. Great service and food options. The starter platter with assorted snacks was a treat as were the dosas. Will keep coming back.

Really good brunch buffet. We were visiting from calgary and loved the food. Really happy to see goli bajji in the menu. Reminded us of restaurants back home. Service was great. They came in with hot idlis, puris and dosas to our table.

My favourite place to have Udupi food in all its glory. Situated very strategically close to the Square one mall. Very cleanly maintained. Dosas here are very delectable as is the medu vadas - reminds me of my hometown Udupi. Another must have thing is the famous Gadbad Ice-cream, you just can't miss it.

Tasty Good Food. We had the mixed appetizer platter which consisted of a few fried appetizers. These were fried to perfection which is very rarely seen in restaurants of this sort. The Dosa's were tasty and also cooked properly and full of flavour. Overall we had a delicious lunch and will return.

The restaurant was clean and pleasant. The Service was friendly and attentive in filling the water glasses.

Excellent customer service and very clean restaurant. Extremely busy but very organized as we went on mother's day. Had a 20 minutes wait but was totally worth as we strolled to the nearby Kariya park. Food was very fresh and delicious. Definitely a go to place for good south Indian food.

This place is good if you want to taste South Indian cuisine. Gadbad ice cream is a must try, though not as good as the one we have in India but close enough. Overall good food and great ambiance.

Went to this place after a very very long time. Firstly be prepared with your vaccination passport and ID. We ordered a thali which was amazing in taste and worth the price in every way. Then we ordered Chettinad dosa thinking it would be spicy but we were disappointed and thirdly was the tava masala dosa- the potato filling was not good at all but the dosa was nice and crunchy. Service was really slow.. ambiance was probably a 5/10. Cleanliness 6/10. price point of view was average

Heard a lot about this place and finally managed to dine in after 4 years of hearing about it. Can’t say I was disappointed with all the hype and wait. Food was good and the service was impeccable, attentive and helpful. Came all the way from downtown Toronto in a rental car to eat here. But was seconds go, maybe I won’t make that effort to come back. Don’t get me wrong, food was good, but there was nothing spectacular. A place for good authentic South Indian cuisine in Mississauga, close the Square One . Amply parking below the establishment. The breakfast brunch is a good deal for $13 but they close that by 11:30 latest. Sometimes by 11 am. Pongal wasn’t the best I’ve eaten, but the dosas were fantastic. Tomato chutney was excellent. Sambhar was pretty good too.

If you are near square one Mississauga, and wanted to have Dosa and some desert then this is your place. Good in your pocket too. Good variety of dosa. Quality is good to. I visited in Dec 21. Food , service is good. Only one thing I didn’t like is staff don’t have good communication between each other. Senior staff is not helping to junior staff ( newly hired). That part I don’t like.
