We went in for their breakfast buffet and loved it ! So much variety of good warm food , gracious hosts , freeflowing chutneys and the filter coffee to finish it off ! Amazing experience, and easy on the pocket as well !
Had an amazing experience at Anjappar! The food was delicious as always, with just the right amount of spice that Anjappar is known for. A special shoutout to Sudha, who served us with a warm smile and was incredibly attentive throughout the meal. Her service made the experience even better. Highly recommend both the food and the excellent hospitality!
I really have enjoyed the different kinds of food at this restaurant.. Obviously, a south Indian place offers a great variety of dosa and idly, Vada combinations but to enjoy the rest of the flavors is a delight here.
Amazing sounth indian restaurent. We ordered a buffet for 20 bucks/person for two folks which was full of varieties of delicate & authentic south indian cuisine. Must explore. Special offer at this time to get 20% off on all take outs of order with 100 bucks.
Food is delicious as always. Garlic fish and butter naan were absolute the best. Sandra the server was very helpful and kind. I come here every time I visit Toronto from the States. The best Indian restaurant I've ever been.
The food was amazing and the portions were generous. Gauri, our server was cordial and helpful with recommendations based on our need. Highly recommend if you’re craving something spicy and authentic South Indian
I went to this place on a Sunday. First I went to Godavari which was temporary closed, then went to Sarvana Bhawan and Ooops the wait time was more than an hour. I do not understand why people wait when they are hungry, but anyways, I searched for this place which is close to Sarvana Bhawan. The experience is not awsome but not bad too. Have a mixed feeling about taste as sambar was good, some chutney were good buy the masala dosa is not that great. Same goes with wadaa. I feel, every item in a meal is not great together but some are better. I would say, the experience is average.
Excellent Chettinad food. This is one of the 3 Anjappar locations in the GTA, and is located close to Square One. The quality and service are just as great. I had the chicken rassam soup and the pomfret masala fry. Both were excellent. Mutton bone soup was excellent. Note, it is a bone broth soup and not a meat soup. Also have tried cream corn soup, excellent. If you like chicken wings, I recommend the andhra chicken appetizer which is frenched chicken drumsticks glazed in a chilli chicken Hakka style sauce. This is how chicken wings should be. Your baseline standard for chicken wings will change after you try these. If you have come to Toronto as a tourist and want to try something memorable and original, try the mutton chuka thali plate. I have tried the mutton chuka plate and it was first class. Quality accompaniments. Rice was excellent quality. The mutton curry was superb, quality boneless cuts, deep thick curry sauce, very spicy. Chicken Dum biriyani was also good. Authentic Madras style biriyani taste. See the picture of the ghee paper masala dosa. A rice crepe with a diameter of 24 inches, stuffed with mashed potatoes, and served with several dippings (2 chutneys and 2 sambars). This and the Thali plate are 2 things to try if you are a tourist here. I have tried the mutton and chicken thali plates, the mutton curry one is highly recommended as the curry is richer and deeper (have a look at the pictures) And see the picture of the paper roast, which is the massive dosa. It's like the ghee paper masala doda but hollow and larger. The shrimp masala fry is excellent too. This will be the most intense shrimp dish you will taste anywhere in the GTA. It's a common snack in seaside towns in south India and Sri Lanka. The curry is very strong and the spice level is intense. Both the pepper fry shrimp and chicken are explosive. These are authentic Chettinad dishes. The parottas (se pictures) are super fluffy and soft. From the payment counter, you can see the chefs make fresh batches regularly. These are expertly made. Anjappars does serve some non-Chettinad dishes, and the Malabar chciken is one example. I tried this and it was a decent rendition of a malabar dish. I've tried the south Indian coffee here (see the video), and it is authentic. The coffee is rich and the dairy essence is pleasant. This is much better than anything you will get at Starbucks. The taste and essence are unbeatable. This is how a coffee stall in south India, Singapore, or Malaysia would make it. This is also how homes in Tami lNadu and Kerala make it. All 3 Anjappar locations have a manager who is attentive, observant, and particiates in restaurant duties and they have oversight over quality. Whichever location you choose, you can be sure that you will get a quality dining experience. I have to remark on the furniture and the cutlery. They are always in tiptop shape. All serving dishes are spotless when they arrive. The tables themselves have copper cladding which is interesting and is stainless. I can't say the same about many of the downtown steakhouses where cutlery is scored and scratched all over and plates look used in-spite of washing. The manager at this location goes out of his way to make sure the guests are enjoying. Every time I dine here, at least 3 staff will come and check on my dining experience, which shows Anjappar cares about quality. This kind of attention to customer satisfaction is hard to find even at places like The Keg. Even at many downtown steakhouses, staff don't check on you more than twice during your visit. Remarkable. Many of the Toronto core restaurants should learn from Anjappars what quality food and service means. Anjappars focuses on quality food first, unlike many of the Toronto core popups that are more interested in being poppin on Instagram and their revenue than they are on their food. Bravo Anjappars
Food was really delish especially the dosa and biryani.

Great food and good customer service.
sanda was very sweet !
The waitresses working there are highly unprofessional, they literally came and ask to take our plates while we are still finishing our food, not once but three times with in 2 mins while we keep telling them we are still eating, when we finally done she came to take the plate with angry face and rudely snatched it from the table. I mean like do you guys have just 1 plate to serve people? Will never visit again

Great place. Great Food
Food is too spicy.
Excellent food, Sandra was amazing with her suggestions and service. Vegetarian options: Lots of options. Parking: Easy to find.
We ordered the chicken Chettinad curry, parota and prawn fry. The food was okay. I believe the parota wasnt freshly made. It seemed like frozen one. The prawn too looked it was frozen. The service was great and staff is nice.
Have been a regular customer since 2019. The quality, taste and freshness of the food is 10/10 Vegetarian options: Standard vegetarian options like Gravies, sides and dosa varieties are available
The foods were good. The only disappointment was my sore masala dosa and regular masala dosa tasted same despite price difference.
The food was really good. Sandra was very kind and helpful.

Kid-friendliness: Thanks Food
Me and my friend visited this place and ordered fish curry along with other items. When we were almost half way, we found a hair in the food. Even after informing the staff they added it to the bill. Once we asked they told us that you already had half of it so it s on you that you found hair. We were calm till the moment but after hearing that As per restaurant having hair in the food is customer s fault I could not control but speak up on this. Never visiting this restaurant again. Very bad customer service. They don t know how to handle the customer s complaint even after being at fault.
Great service and quite good food!

We had a lovely dinner with veg meals that truly took me back to my college days. The meal featured three delicious curries, curd, and chapati, all of which brought such warmth and nostalgia.

Thank you for the wonderful service Akshaya and team!

We had a Masala Dosa this afternoon. The food was excellent and customer service was top notch. I would like visit again here soon.
The Food here was great as always
The best dosa place with great service that is friendly, attentive and quick! Our family s favourite dosa place (very family/kid friendly) where we can walk in without a reservation, and always experience great service with consistently delicious dosas with great chutneys and sambar that taste homemade. The other dishes are just as delicious chicken tikka, iddli, meda wadda etc. and there is a big variety of non-dosa items that are gluten/dairy free, vegetarian etc. Great value compared to some other dosa restaurants and the dosas aren t too heavy or oily like some other restaurants. We come almost weekly we love it that much! Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian and vegan options Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options Parking: Free parking right outside the restaurant Kid-friendliness: Very child friendly - the servers always bring out our child s meal first and there is a variety of kid friendly items (dosas, eggs, fries, lassi etc)
The food was good, quick service. Sandra service was very good. She is very pleasant and recommended good food options. Will definitely come back
Worst customer service. Never recommended to go.
My mom and I visit often and the food is always great, the service from Suga is even better
Great food and service. Suga is doing a great job
Awesome service and amazing food.... must try masala dosa
We have been enjoying South Indian Chettinad meals at Anjappar since several years. The food has been consistently good. Moreover we love the service that we get. Especially Suga has been one of the most pleasant servers we have seen. We really appreciate Suga! She and the other staff are kind, attentive and generous with their customer service. Vegetarian options: Good choice of dosas and South Indian vegetarian meals.
Great food as always.
It is almost our regular spot now . I have tried their weekend breakfast buffet and lunch menu. I love the varieties and quality. I am a big fan of their coffee as well Kid-friendliness: Children below 12 eat free if they come for weekend breakfast buffet
Great service by Akaash server
Exceptional dining experience , Delicious cuisine, welcoming ambiance, and top-notch service. Highly recommend for a memorable culinary adventure!
Great service and delicious food. A must turnaround if you looking for best south Indian dishes.
Great food , authentic and super yum. Dosas are a must! Definitely coming back .
Anjappa is a hidden gem that truly captures the essence of authentic cuisine. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for both casual dining and special occasions. I tried their signature dishes, and each one was a delight!
Great place for dine in
Staffs were friendly and suggested to try different Options which became my favourite dish in Anjappar. Can t wait to try more. I recommend to try this southentic restaurant whenever you are here in Mississauga.
Dosa was amazing
I was there for the dinner . I ordered from Todays special menu (garlic chicken Tikka, special fish fry,Nandu thokk , bun parotta and nattukozhi biriyani )which was amazing authentic food .if you are looking for a great south indian food experience , this is the place for you
Food was very delicious and the service was good. Sandra served well and asked multiple times whether everything was good and took care nicely. Food reminds of same taste as Chennai. Would recommend for South Indian biryani lovers.
Exceptional food and really great service from staff...
I often do takeout from here (though I have dined-in as well, for which, the service could use some improvement in timeliness). Suga is generally the lovely lady who assists me with that. She always greets with a smile and is very competent at what she does, as sometimes (not always!), I end up making changes/modifications/additions to my order which is ready for pick-up already. She makes it all a smooth transition and always presents herself professionally. Suga is generally my first point of contact at this restaurant and that really makes a positive difference to my experience. I dont know about you, but for me, service and food often go hand-in-hand. It is a collective presentation from the establishment where everything works well (or not!) together as a team.
Great food !!!
Amazing thali!!!
had egg masala and parothas .. iit is awesome..!!!
Suga was such a nice server :) we loved all the food and the service
Thank you Sandra for the food recommendations. We loved our dine in experience.
Amazing food and service, our server Georgie was friendly and showed great customer service.

Ordered a chicken 65 dish and chicken Chettinad masala with the paratha. The chicken in the chicken 65 was dry and not authentic but the chicken chettinad was really good.
Good Vegetarian options: Good Food : 5/5 |
Worst customer service. Worst manager Prabhu. Worst experience ever. If got chance would like to talk to their head. We are old customer and always visited their brampton branch they have great service, But this location people doesn t know how to treat even families . Worst and Rude staff. Not recommended to families with babies.
Best dosa place in Mississauga
The restaurant offers a diverse menu with a wide range of options to suit every palate. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, perfect for a casual meal or a special occasion. Very good service as well
Vegetarian options: Breakfast buffet Food
Superb food! loved their masala dosa and uthapama specifically
Good food and experience.
Very good service by whole team., Prabhu did a great job. He was really patient and explained about the menu in a detailed manner. Food was tasty. Prabhu checked in often to make sure everything went well. Will visit again for sure
I have visited here with my family. It was delicious reminded me of home.

The food is similar to what i ate in india.
Good food with good customer service
Great place, highly reccomend
The manager Prabhu is sooo arrogant and harsh to customers. They have very poor customer service.
Astoundingly tasty masala Dosa. Sambar was amongst the best I have tasted in GTA as well as the SF bay area!
I have beeb with family. Great food. Love their Rasam Vada. Suga was but of course a great help.
I recently dined at Anjappar and I have to say, the service we received from our server, suga was outstanding! From the moment we sat down, she made sure we were well taken care of. She was attentive without being overbearing, ensuring our drinks were always full and that we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Suga had a great attitude, was super friendly, and even made some excellent recommendations from the menu that we loved. It truly felt like she went above and beyond to make our dining experience special. If you re planning to visit, I highly recommend asking for Suga, she really added a personal touch that made our night memorable. We ll definitely be coming back! Kid-friendliness: Nice
This is my all time fav Dosa place. Special Thanks to Suga for being the best server!
Really tasty food . Great service by Sandra Vegetarian options: Great variety Food : 5/5 |
Amazing food and service! Suga always take la good care of us!
Loved the food. Try anything here and it will turn out amazing!!
Great food and best place to come with family
Food is very expensive and portion are not appropriate . Biryani have more rice than actual non veg. Gulab jamun was rotten
Oct 20: Updating, incredible service and absolutely delicious food. Bring all childhood memories about dosa and poori. Super yummy breakfast buffet, we come every weekend. Awesome atmosphere great service. Staff is extremely friendly and professional, specially Suga is absolutely amazing, looks into every aspect of customer need.
Excellent service and good food!
One of the best places in Mississauga which has delicious variety of food. Love this place. The service they provide is also awesome. I never forget to come here during weekends for dinner whenever I have time.
Good food , ambience can be improved
Good spot for mainly South Indian varieties- flavour inclined more to a Tamil side, which we enjoyed well in that aspect. Ordered varieties of Dosa like Ghee Dosa, Masala Dosa and Uthappam and two soups. Kid-friendliness: Kid sized Dosas and other varieties made it easy to choose for them and was appropriate for their appetite.
