Overall the quantity was good for the cost. 1. The Mutton biryani was as good as it could be. 2. Mutton bone soup is a must-try for its generous quantity and delicious taste. 3. Curry Leaf Chicken is infused with authentic curry masala flavour. Chocolate dosa topped with white chocolate. 5. Idli (hard to eat) sambhar (tasted well)

Really disappointed. Not the one putting negative reviews but just can’t let it go. I really wanted to go to this place for a very long time seeing the hype on instagram n google reviews.. Food was below average in taste and so oily. Service was not great either.. No one came to check even once if we are good. I ordered mutton soup but i got mutton curry mixed with hot water, ordered mutton and chicken briyani but i got rice mixed with curries, and i ordered pepper chicken but i got chicken curry dry with peppar powder on the top.. Seriously i didn't expect this.. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Would not want to go again.

Pro- Ambience is great with portraits of South Indian personalities on their walls. delicious food with veg-non veg options. Reasonable price with very good quantity. Very good service and surprisingly they refuse to take any tips! Cons- No complain about food and mail floor but their washrooms in the basement and in dirty condition - today papers on floor and even unclean urinals- they should pay some attention to this also.

They have one of the best biryani’s I have tried so far in Toronto! If you are a spicy lover like me, you must try their food! Their mutton dishes like biryani and curries, are very good as well as chicken. But the shrimp and fish curry aren’t the best, so would recommend not spending on them. Their dosa is fine, but little bit expensive in comparison to other places. But we really enjoyed the dosa too! The green curry is one of the spiciest one from the curry list, I would recommend to try it once atleast if you are a spicy lover. Its very hot at the beginning, but you will love the flavours afterwards. My most favourite biryani is chettinad mutton, that is very worth trying! The mild biryani would be hydrebadi biryani. However, they have a special Natukozi biryani, that comes with only two chicken neck pieces. The rice is very flavourful as usual, but two chicken neck pieces doesn’t justify the price. The service isn’t the best in busy times. The owner keeps less servers, but they are nice overall. The food is standard, this place remains in the top in our list!

This is like 5th or 6th time, we are visiting the restaurant. Best South Indian food that we have in Canada so far. Loved the fast service, smiling servers and the FOOD!!!!!

August 2, 2024

As a regular customer, I was particularly disappointed with my recent visit. I ordered the Naatukozhi chicken Briyani, which was served with two chicken neck pieces—something that was not mentioned on the menu. When I expressed my concerns, the owner refused to meet with me and sent a waiter to handle the issue instead. The owner claimed that this is how chicken Briyani is served everywhere, which is simply not true. The combination of poor food quality and unprofessional customer service has made me rethink my loyalty to this place. I won’t be coming back.

Delicious and authentic South Indian cuisine. Each dish was uniquely prepared, bursting with powerful flavors. Plenty of space for seating, though parking was difficult. Be prepared for slow service though, as nearly every dish is made from scratch.

Taste of Tamilnadu delivers an authentic South Indian dining experience. The menu features traditional Tamil cuisine with bold, flavorful dishes like dosa, idli, and Biryani and lot more. The spices and ingredients taste fresh and true to the region's culinary heritage. The casual, welcoming atmosphere makes it a great spot for both quick meals and relaxed dinners. Service is warm, and prices are reasonable. If you're craving genuine Tamil flavors, this place won't disappoint!

Top notch tamil cuisine. Top notch biriyani. Ive tried many dishes here and all have been homeruns. This place is up there with Anjappar for quality and service. Their food has more homemade aura to it. Ive found their masalas and soups to be similar to how a tamil nadu household would make it. Their biriyanis are first class. Well seasoned, just the right amount of fats, and generios quantities of proteins. Highly recommend their hyderabad biriyani. Their biriyanis are better than biriyanis made at specialty biriyani places. Their dosa is as good as Annalakshmis and Annapurnas. Their masala frys have depth of flavour. Their mutton bone soup was perfect, just as would be made in a tamil hosuehold with a pressure cooker. The restaurant is extremely well-decorated with Tamil Nadu culture themed artwork. The place is always tidy, the furnishings are new, and the staff are professional and effective. This is a great place to take guests in the city to show them something new or to introduce them to Indian tamil /south Indian cuisine. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian dishes here Parking: Sizeable parking lot adjacent to main road and shared by several other husinesses

After read some of the mixed reviews,thought of try this restaurant finally which was in our bucket list for so long.Here the true review comes as a lover of Authentic food. I agree ,there was a wait time but still its worth.I believe its a fine dine-in not a fast food..If you are looking for Authentic food then you need to Wait. If youre craving authentic South Indian cuisine, look no further than Taste of Tamilnadu. My recent visit to this gem was nothing short of a culinary delight. We started our meal with the Mutton Biryani, which was a fragrant masterpiece. The tender mutton was perfectly cooked, infused with rich spices that delighted the senses. Each grain of rice was fluffy and aromatic, making it a true comfort dish. Next up was the Parotta flaky, buttery, and absolutely delicious. It paired wonderfully with the Chicken Salna. The salna was a flavorful curry with a delightful kick, complementing the parotta perfectly. The Idiyappam was the highlight of the meal for me. Delicate and soft, these steamed rice noodles were a revelation! They had a subtle that paired beautifully with the accompanying chicken salna and sukka.A must-try for anyone visiting! We also indulged in the Masala Dosa, which was crispy and filled with a perfectly spiced potato mixture. It was served with a variety of chutneys that added an extra layer of flavor. Finally, we couldn t resist trying the Mutton Sukka Varuval. This dry preparation of mutton was incredibly flavorful, with spices that danced on the palate and a texture that was simply irresistible. The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for families and friends. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was enjoyable from start to finish. In summary, Taste of Tamilnadu is a must-visit for anyone looking to explore the rich flavors of South Indian cuisine. Every dish we tried was exceptional, and the Idiyappam truly stole the show. I cant wait to return and sample more of their delicious offerings! Keep up the good work.

Came in to the restaurant and they made us sit for about 20 minutes on a table which was not cleaned . We had a kid too. Nobody attended us nor cleaned the table. We waited and silently left the place. They did not even know we were leaving. Looks like they are short on manpower to run this restaurant. Don t recommend this! Thoroughly disappointed

November 30, 2024

The worst service that you can ever experience in Toronto is at this place. Don t ever plan to go to this place especially on the weekends. You re going to ruin your day. The owner is extremely rude and is least bothered about customer service.

Wait time is more and more . I ordered for Biryani (take away) waited for more than 1 hour. Initially one person took order and when I checked for an update - I was told your order has not been taken . So literally I just simply waited for 30 min. I was really disappointed. After 30 min I asked again for an update on my order and it was still NOT READY Service is very very slow

It comes highly recommended for food enthusiasts who value authenticity and quality. The service was equally impressive Parvathy, in particular, provided excellent service and was very humble.

Here s a review for Taste of Tamil Nadu: I recently dined at Taste of Tamil Nadu, and it was an absolute treat for anyone who loves authentic South Indian cuisine. From the moment we walked in, the aroma of fresh spices and traditional Tamil flavors was inviting. The ambiance is cozy and charming, and the staff was warm and welcoming. The highlight, of course, was the food. Each dish was flavorful and tasted freshly made, just like a home-cooked Tamil meal. The dosa was crisp, and the sambhar was rich and aromatic, while the biryani had the perfect blend of spices without overpowering. I especially recommend their Chettinad chicken perfectly spiced and cooked to perfection. Overall, Taste of Tamil Nadu offers an authentic and delightful South Indian dining experience. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to explore the flavors of Tamil Nadu. I ll definitely be returning to try more from the menu!

Food was good. But the service was not upto the expectation. The girls were too exhausted. It would be better if they had few more to help around d during the weekend with the rush. The place is too small with bulky furniture. Either they should be more spacious to accommodate large groups or take reservations to limit walk-ins. Music is too loud. Not everyone who likes their food would be a fan of their choice if music.

This is just the feedback to get better for the place. The Work service persons are super busy. The place has the hype and location is great but not just enough staff. Only 1 person takes the order for the dine in guests, manages uber eats, visiting guests, pick up orders, etc. 2 person who doesn t understand english tries to run to serve all the guests due to heavy load of dine in orders. Since the store is busy and all 3 employees are running around to do their job, No welcoming of any guests, even for taking orders( there is a bell- I pressed it 4 times so I could place my order), Since the store is busy the order taker takes order only once- you need to order appretizers to desert, if you need to order step by step then you would not be able to have anything at all, but since you managed to place everything at once- After huge wait(45m-1hr) you get everything you ordered all at once. Now you have to eat all at once. Then in between if you require anything then the busy working employees would really want to serve you but are busy so gets delayed and avoided. My entire dine in start to finish was 2.5 hrs. we managed to entertain us with Instagram, including thinking of making this review, etc If the restaurant had great food service and wanted more fame and guests. Then the service must be efficient and quick with more happy staff who can make happy guests. This is not to criticize the restaurant or hard working employees but just a feedback for betterment. But the food was good I wouldn t say the best and not worst of course or my opinion would have been changed for this kind of service.

We ordered boneless biryani, but they served us biryani with bones. When we pointed this out, they refused to replace it. The service was terrible it took them 10 minutes just to come and take a new order. When we mentioned the mistake, they blamed us, saying it was our fault for not ordering everything at once. It was clearly their mistake. They even said they would give us a new biryani as takeout but with an additional cost. When we refused the bone biryani, they claimed the kitchen was closed, yet they were still taking orders from other customers. They definitely need more staff. To top it off, the Mango Lassi was stale too.

October 21, 2024

*Disappointing Experience* I recently ordered a chicken keema dosa for pickup through phone, which I was told would take a maximum of 30 minutes to prepare. However, when I reach after 30 minutes, I was shocked to find that the dish hadnt even been started. The restaurant was empty, with no other customers. To make matters worse, the waiter informed me that the chef was on a break and that it would take a long time to prepare my order. They suggested I cancel it altogether! Unbelievable. The sheer lack of organization, communication, and customer service left a sour taste. Editing after restaurants reply I dont want to argue about the situation; I know what happened. However, Id like to clarify two factual errors in your response: 1. I placed the order at 4:41 and was told it would be ready within 30 minutes (not 40), which I reconfirmed during the call. 2. I arrived at 5:10, exactly 30 minutes after 4:42 (not 10 minutes after). I picked my kid at 5:00 from the daycare. Additionally, when I arrived, your staff checked with the kitchen and suggested canceling the order because the chef was still eating lunch.

I visited this place today. Sadly, I don t have much nice things to say about this place because the biggest fail about them is their service. And honestly, the people who work here or who own this place don t care, clearly. I ordered idli plate which was fine but after that when I was waiting to order something else I couldn t because no bothered coming back to my table. Funnily, I can t even comment much about food because no one took my order while I waited for 1.5 hrs. When I tried to explain the waitress one of them started to give excuses and other one didn t care. There are much better South Indian restaurants with better service such as The Nilgiris. If you are around the GTA area try that place. They have much better South Indian food and nice people. I came here for the first time as it was close to my place but now I regret. Such a disappointment! I paid about $14 dollars for idli plate (3 idlis + podi) and an extremely disappointed service.

The place is not worth going for dine in. I went there and had to wait over 45 mins to get my food. The staff only cares about the take out orders. They do not bring you menu or glasses for water. I got attention of server after asking and walking up to her couple of times just to get a menu. I dont know what is wrong with management who lets dine in customers just sit there while they only work on takeout orders. I had to remind and ask over and over for every dish I ordered. I had to ask for cultery too. The server told me its not personal when they served food to other table where people came 15 mins after I came and I was still waiting for water glasses. The owner didnt even bother to come and explain. When the food came the server behaved as if they are doing me a favor. I didnt even feel like eating anymore. The service and lack of any acknowledgement from staff or owner made me like I was just sitting there wasting my time. Please do not visit this restaurant if you care about your time. The owners do not care about dine in customers

October 21, 2024

The worst food and service i have ever seen.

October 21, 2024

First of all no proper parking, had to wait more than 20 minutes just to park that too across the street . Ordered Parotta with Chicken Salna- Salna quantity was less . Asked If they can give extra for extra money obviously. They denied and mentioned they will provide only veg salna. Again insisted to another server , Ill pay extra for salna , Answer was same , no. Told them to check with Chef/Manager as i was wondering whats wrong with my ask . They told will give only veg salna for extra charge and not the salna of my choice . We didnt come a long way to eat on your terms . Biriyani was ok , but shrimp pieces felt stale and hard . Chicken 65 had too much color . Kids Dosa comes with default Ketchup (atleast tell us while ordering if we need certain items or not) To wash hands we need to head downstairs and the washroom is not tidy enough. Need to request couple of times for napkins as well . After the initial order nobody even bothered to ask if everything was ok. Clearly shows they dont care about customers at all . Place is a big no if you want to eat authentic Tamil food with good service. After owner response : what are you saying ? I know parking my problem . I said it s difficult to find parking , is that not true ? What about the other complaints I made ? Any response to that or that is also my problem? And are you saying my restaurant my rules

Paya and dosa is very good, Biryani is not up to the mark.

So my friends and I go here every weekend and the bill usually is more than $100. The owner and servers know us too. I always order the same paneer rava dosa. The last time though, the paneer was tough and bland and the dosa was a weird texture too, so I told the server the issue. Given the amount of business we give this place and the fact that we ve never sent a dish back, there shouldn t have been an issue in replacing the dish or letting me order something else as I had barely touched the dosa. The server told me that the chef refuses to acknowledge there could be an issue as they always make it the same way. Sounds to me like a really bad way to do business. They lost our business as we won t be returning unfortunately.

Easily one of the best spots in North York for authentic Tamil cuisine. Loved the way how they handled customers and accommodating our needs 5 stars for that!! The dishes were all good - we tried the nethili fry -( could have been made with less better) but it tasted good, Vadacurry - the star, which reminded me of Maari hotel in Chennai. Idli salna, konar curry dosa, idiyappam were all too good with the required amount of spices. The ambience was nice with Tamil songs playing in the background. The service was very quick, we got our dishes within 10 mins of ordering.

Went yesterday and had lunch thali. The quantity was fine so most dishe were okay. However they served spoilt vada. It was made of spoilt batter.

September 21, 2024

Really BAD service!!! I used to go there often initially but their service is getting worse by each visit. You have to wait 15-20 mins or more for the server to take your order or if you need anything while having your meal, on a busy day it can take over 40 mins to get 2 dosas. One time I told the server & the manager that my dosa is still raw and I can see and taste the raw batter and they refused to accept that the dosa could be raw and kept arguing with us. There is Zero customer service and they would just keep arguing as the lady doesn t listen or let you talk. Never going back and won t recommend this place to others!

September 21, 2024

I ordered 4 dosa and 3 lemonade and one glass has a hair in it . So disgusting. I tried to go to their washroom the smell make me puke so I didn t even use the washroom. It was so unhygienic condition. Never recommend anyone to eat in unhygienic environment. They didn t even apologised the hair I got on my drink just simply took the drink and made a new one for me. Like seriously. So disappointed with the services.

I will begin with what we found was good here...it definitely serves good food. I had ordered veg thali and everything on it was really good. We also had Mysore Dosa and Masala dosa and they too were authentic. However, I wouldnt be the first to complain about the wait times here...attenders seem to be overworked and tired...I absolutely dislike the seating..there is no thought given into how the tables should be arranged...my friend found a strand of hair in the food (kothu parotta) and when she wanted to return the dish they asked for proof...which is weird coz by the time the attender came to our table and we could tell them about the hair it was 20 mins and its stupid to expect to hold on to a strand of hair for that long just to produce some proof! Where are we at some restaurant or some court?!

Second or third visit - this time after reading some negative reviews recently. Ill have to stick with my good ratings - I see new staff and the place was busy. Expect to wait for your food, as its not prepared and left waiting for people. Went again with parotta, mutton salna, veg salna (paid extra) and a side order of a single bun parotta along with Chettinadu chicken gravy. The last order was specifically to check how the meat quantity and quality was - ended with a huge quantity, with 60% taken out as left over. The boneless meat was also in high proportion of the gravy. As for the taste - black pepper and fresh green coriander flavors shined through and its on the spicier side (compared to the salnas) - which worked in my favor as I do like spicy!

Worst place. Went there on my special day, They had customers only on 2 tables barely 7-8 people, firstly they took forever to give us a table to sit. Once we got the table we waited like half n hour, no one came to take the order. We called them they said we will take your order in 2 mins, and after 20 mins m still there waiting for them. I rang the bell they have on every table, no one came to even ask. No order taken, no food eaten, no response received, not greeted well. Lack of everything in running a business.

This was my third visit because I really enjoy the food here. I hope the service improves.

Appada.. finally a real TamilNadu taste.. but very very LATE service, so pack ur time before going there.. really authentic tasty food of TamilNadu.. ordered seeraga samba chettinad chicken briyani, parotta salana n chicken 65.. finally fried dry chicken 65( not wet saucy). Also they serve parotta along with salna , no need to separately order .. proper seeraga sambha briyani, i dont like too much masala so did not try dindugal briyani, but chettinad briyani is flavourful, light and aromatic

Ordered country chicken biryani and there were broiler chicken pieces. Ordered tea and they served machine tea which is in a very little glass costing $4, which is not even worth for $1. Money minded people serving low quality foods which is inappropriate to their menu.

August 21, 2024

Please do not buy food here. We bought mutton and chicken biriyani and hours later we had a bad diarrhea (through the course of the night and morning) When we called them to inform/complain about it, the owner, a lady, kept defending themselves that they are not responsible for it and that they are 100% certain that it was not their food. What does it matter if the meat is halal or not. How does it stop them from using either contaminated meat or oil or other ingredients. There was not the slightest concern about what happened to us. Horrendous attitude. Please stay away from this place!!!!

We went there this afternoon The food was greasy and not authentic at all Their mutton sukka was an oily mess while the meat was good. Paratha was on point The service was less than stellar but the staff were very friendly. They were just 2 managing a full restaurant so can t really blame them. They were doing their best! The washrooms were accessible via a steep set of stairs where the hand railing was broken and made for a treacherous trek especially for my dad who is a senior. And the washrooms themselves were smelly. I expected so much more! If you can, skip this place entirely.

Been to this place alone for dinner. Nobody bothered to receive me. I had to go to the counter and ask them if I can get a table for myself. Ordered Kothu Roti Mutton. The waiter asked me if I want something else. I politely said no because I had a movie to go in 60-75 minutes. 15 minutes later another waiter came to me and asked if I m ready to place the order. I told her it s been 15 minutes I placed the order. Another 5 minutes later the manager/owner came and told me that they didn t get the order to the Kitchen. Wasted my time here. The restaurant is not clean. Not cleaned regularly. Uploading photos I took for reference. Got my food after 30 mins. Similar experience was faced by friends in the past. Though food is good, service is bad!

As soon as we walked in no one came to us to clean the tables nor came with menu. We later saw another table being cleaned and we sat there. We ordered kothu rotti, medhu vada and coffee. 1) The kothu rotti was good and we have no complaints about it. 2) Medhu vada: It was very bad in taste(0 authenticity) tasted old too. The Tomato chutney served was almost stale. There were 3 vadas served we had half of one vada. We immediately informed one of the staff members about it and the restaurant did not have the courtesy to look into the issue. We were simply ghosted until the bill came. 3) Coffee: This never came to my table. This is one of the worst customer services I have ever seen. They never had the basic courtesy to approach the customer and accept feedback. This is actually one of the places I have recommended to a lot people and I completely regret it. The attitude of accepting basic feedback is required being in a customer oriented industry. Nonetheless, we paid the bill and left the place. The recent reviews of the place says it all!

For the reviewers who say service is slow: everything is freshly made, not defrosted and thrown into a dish. If you want fast food that lacks quality, go to a fast food place. Service is great - greeted with a warm smile and was helped out with the menu. Place is nicely decorated, lots of seating. Food is phenomenal. Flavours are truly authentic and you can taste the freshness in the ingredients. Portion size to the price point is great for a Toronto restaurant. They have specials on a whiteboard inside so make sure you take a look. So happy to have come across this place. Highly recommend!! Dietary restrictions: Lots of veg options

Vegetarian review : Finally a perfect sambhar, this place has the most amazing sambhar. I ordered idli plate, chennai masala dosa, filter coffee (obviously), vada combo, masala soda. Dosa was crispy and had a good amount of aaloo filling, it was fulfilling, idli were soft and tasty, though it doesn t come with a right amount of sambhar of chutney (you can ask them to refill) Coconut chutney was the so amazing, I literally refilled it twice. Service was super quick and staff is polite. I would 100% recommend the place. Vegetarian options: They have various veg options and they are super amazing. Totally recommend the place

We came from Singapore and was looking for some good indian food before heading back home. The food was so good that we came down for 2 consecutive days. Dindugal briyani was really good. And this is coming from a person who rarely eats briyani. The idly is really soft and the parotta is flaky and crunchy as well. The cook had experience working in various countries and it shows in the taste of the food. If youre looking for some good south indian food, then this is definitely the place to go

I literally saw the downfall of food, service and hospitality of this restaurant. I used to be their regular customer and used to recommend their services to friends and family. But since the starting of this year, the food has become so bad to even have a bit. they literally served me burnt dosa thrice ( I gave it two chances because i thought it may have happed by chance) For the third time, i order it via home delivery and look at the picture, I guess it says it all. The owner (lady) would not even bother exchanging the food for atleast not so burnt dosa. Spare yourseld from their menu, if you want to save your hard earned money

June 21, 2024

I ordered an 2 omlette over there and they started acting weird. The server acted like I was ordering something strange while it was on their menu . Then the Owner or Manager lady came from inside and started asking me where are you from? Are you from Punjab. Like which region one has to be to order an omlette from? It was racist +The wait time is really long,wanted to do a takeaway but just for an omlette and coffee had to wait a really long time so I left it

My uber name is AP...I ordered chicken biriyani and chicken gravy from this place after coming across this restaurant in uber..I was impressed by the variety of menu options so as I was hungry I ordered first. I wanted to see the reviews so I can dine in..and I had the wonderful opportunity to go through their 1 star reviews..which was hilarious actually.. the owner seems to have SO MUCH attitude who belittle his customers and lacks ZERO hospitality.. Im sure he doesnt even know what hospitality means.. My experience: I placed an order in uber and waited 1 hour 45 minutes for my order and the biriyani was an absolute nightmare and the gravy had more oil than gravy itself.. if the owner has so much attitude who doesnt care about what his own customers think of his food then his food should be that good then.. but the food is terrible and so is his hospitality and attitude.. He had commented on a customers review and called him cheap coz he placed an order on Doordash..what an irony in fact dining is less expensive than ordering as we play so much extra to have it delivered to us.. well this was a good lesson to not trust hotels just coz they have Tamil Nadu in its name..coz.tamil people neither lack hospitality nor good taste well this restaurant seems to lack both unfortunately..

We were sitting in the restaurant for about 20 minutes and the woman working did not have any courtersy and ignored us furthermore no menu was given after we were sitting for so long. Eventually we decided to leave, and whoever the person was has no manners/etiquette. Horrible customer service, come here if you want to be disrespected! owner is saying we arrived early. We came around 1230 and lady just kept walking by and did not communicate at all to us. Owner is just making up story. Please hire attendants who are trained and have communication skills.

I come here once a month because food is excellent but today even though food was equally good, service was horrendous. I got my Dosa after 50 mins. But what made the whole experience horrible was the owners kids I believe. The young kid was all over the place. Drinking water from every empty table she found. Screaming shouting and kicking my seat from back. They really need to treat this like a restaurant and not like a home kitchen Responding to your reply I don t know how to respond back to your reply but yes food took 50 mins. 51 mins to be precise. And the kid drank from many glasses and the glasses were not removed. I don t know what are you talking about. I could ve take a picture of that happening but did not want to take kids pictures. I don t blame the kid but the adults who were around her. Yes I chose to sit there because I did not know this would happen.

Visited for the first time. The food tastes like regular homemade meals with authentic flavors. I had the Nattukozi chicken biryani, which was spicy and amazing. The prices are reasonable for the portion sizes. Be sure to check the spice level if you havent tried these dishes before, as they maintain the original recipes spice level. The taste was authentic, and the portions were generous. The vibe was excellent, with retro music featuring Hariharan songs being a highlight. I highly recommend this place for South Indian food with authentic Chettinad taste. A must-visit if youre looking for good South Indian cuisine.

So we had to meet the owners who make this happen every day. The husband and wife team a humble couple dishing out the mouth watering we re so very kind gave us their time and made us feel so welcome.

We were craving South Indian food and found this place.. We ordered a Cheese dosa, a Rava dosa, medhu vada and a veg thali.. The potion sizes were huge and the flavours were exquisite. The prices are very reasonable. The food is on the spicer side compared to other similar restaurants but this gave a more authentic taste. The filter coffee is also very good but comes with sugar. If you don t like sugar in your coffee, tell them while ordering. They are very short staffed and hence the service is not top notch (the plates and cutlery were all wet). They are however very courteous and apologized multiple times for the delays. This place will take time and being patient is totally worth it. The delay is mostly in taking the order, but we didn t wait a long time after ordering. The food is extraordinary. This by far is the BEST South Indian meal in GTA.. We will definitely come back to try the non-vegetarian options..

Instead of acknowledging customers genuine complaint and taking it in stride to improve, the owner reply back very rudely in an insulting tone and put the blame back on the customers.

When you eat here, be prepared to eat authentic South Indian food cooked by chefs from South India. We wanted medium heat and that is exactly what we got, not bland but also not super hot. The location is not the best and the setting is humble but then again, the prices are the lowest youll find anywhere for delicious food. Customers started coming in as soon as the restaurant opened today, telling me that people cant wait for this food. Without any question, their dosas were excellent, but we loved their rava uppama as well. I loved their sambar as it had the right flavourings. It couldve used some more vegetables but I believe their version is more authentic. You get 3 chutneys (red, white, and green) but Im really not crazy about their red chutney, maybe its me. I believe that one should try this newer place out. Im local and could eat this food every day. Vegetarian options: Any vegetarian or vegan can eat here and fill up on delicious food. Kid-friendliness: They even have kid-friendly items on the menu, probably because the owner couple has a child of their own.

Really good taste of tamil food, but unfortunately understaffed. We ordered idli, mutton dosa, kothu parotha and bun parotha with mutton salna.

The taste was pathetic, neither of the food we ordered tasted back home. Water was tasty though . Dont prefer this place. Service was good however the other aspects of the restaurant ruined it overall. I wish I could ask for refund.

I ordered a fish meals for dinner and got my delivery after 3 hours (at 11.50pm). Out of that, 2.5 hours was the preparation time. The delivery person took the actual travel time of 30 mins. When I tried to contact the restaurant, didnt get any response. Im not sure about the dine-in service, but online delivery service is very bad. Response for the owner: Yes I do have the audacity to blame because I waited for freaking 3 hours for the awful food and u have the audacity to blame it on driver when it showed 2.5hrs for preparing I am just confused whether the driver was preparing the food
