Came in to try the South Indian Thali on a Sunday around 1pm. The thali was a great serving size and was packed with flavor across all the individual dishes. This meal was a strong reminder of my parents' home cooking - I will be back soon!

A very authentic South Indian restaurant. Loved the fact that they make things fresh on a daily basis. Ordered combo breakfast options. Portion sizes are quite generous and was very tasty. Upma tasted so good .I would definitely go back to try other items on the menu.

The best spot to get South Indian food - be it meals ir any tiffin items which are available all day long. We dined here multiple times since they opened and of all restaurants in PNW, it exceeded all my expectations in most of the items tried. The food was absolutely delicious, bursting with authentic flavors that made every bite a delight. We liked all the tiffin items and parotas - Idli, Vada, Pongal, Pesarattu, Dosa, kothu parota, Bisibeli bhaat; but thought that jackfruit biryani was overrated in some of the reviews. It was more like namkeen rice and not biryani. Filter coffee is the best. It’ll also give you nostalgia of seeing the milk being poured over in traditional way over the concoction right infront of you :) For those looking for vegetarian restaurant, this South Indian vegetarian restaurant can be your go-to!! The service was attentive and friendly, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Front desk and staff at food counter are always friendly. While the ambience could benefit from a bit of tidying up, the overall atmosphere was still cozy and welcoming. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone craving flavorful South Indian cuisine in a casual dining setting!

If you want to enjoy “authentic” South Indian vegetarian food, this is the best restaurant to visit. Fresh food, nice ambience. The Jackfruit Briyani is outstanding. Mushroom Briyani was good too. Idli, Dosa, Vada, Poori all were excellent. Mango Lassi & filter coffee was awesome as well. For Poori the potato masala was less in quantity and taste was ok. But the sambhar, chutney were good. Very friendly staff too. Highly recommend this place.

If you want to try authentic South Indian vegetarian food, this is a must visit place. Growing up in the Tamil Nadu region of South India, it was really difficult to find a home cooked meal in the Seattle area. This place truly checked that box off. From the tiffin items like idly, dosa to their meals and biryani, I enjoyed every single bite of it. Their filter coffee is also a must try too. The owners are very kind and take care of you as your family. Overall they are best for their genuine food and homely ambience!

A very authentic South Indian vegetarian restaurant. The food was fresh and non greasy and piping hot. South Indian thali portions were generous and all the items tasted good. Rava dosa we tried was flavorful and crispy but needed a little oil or fat. Will return to try other items. Good for small groups or solo dining.
