paper dosa here is the best ⭐ For food. Paper dosa is crisp and light and crunchy and fresh. Vadai is so good. Crunchy outside, soft inside. Teh peng is gooood. ⭐ For service. Counter guy was friendly and fast. Cook was smiling and engaging with customers as we lined up to order. Wait staff was bussing quickly and pleasantly. ⭐ For cleanliness. Tables and chairs all clean. Floor clean. Glass doors clean. ⭐ For price. Good price for a clean, well kept location. About $18 for a dosa set, 4 vadai and a fantastic teh-peng ice. ⭐ For "Will I Come Back?". Yes. Yes. Yes.

Is my usual place to have Prata or Briyani, if have any craving and nearby will drop by here to eat. The curry was thick and flavourful. Prata was made to order, so still crispy. Service was fast. 👍

Very generous portion of bee Hoon goreng. Nice sitting both inside and outside. The Prata is also not bad although slightly more expensive than other Indian place.

The ambience is very relaxing. The food are nice. The briyani rice is nice, the prata is nice too, coin prata is the best. Remember to try paper dosai too.

1st time here and ordered via website 'scan to order'. So went inside to ask if I needed to collect the food myself. I was chased out, a very rude guy told me they were busy with many orders. Seriously?? He has to learn how to communicate with others. This place isnt very clean, basic housekeeping is needed. Fish gravy was a disappointment

The place has indoor and outdoor seating at outside of Taiseng MRT. The food we tasted(mutton briyani and chicken kothu parotta) was good. Ice lemon tea was very average.

Price: $5.70 Masala Thosai: 4.5/5 Thosai was thin so most of its edges are crispy, potato curry had chopped onions giving the filling a nice crunch. Sambar: 3.5/5 The usual flavourful sambar you will find with thosai. Chutney: 4/5 The orange chutney was spicier than the white coconuty chutney and both were packed with flavour. Total score: 12/15

Visited for the first time for dinner despite having passed by a couple of times. Food is very fresh & warm. While this is a self-service restaurant, the staff served us our drinks when the eatery wasn't crowded so I appreciate the gesture even though they don't exactly make small talk. We ordered Mee Goreng, Nasi Goreng, Mutton Murtabak and egg prata, plus Teh Halia. The Mutton Murtabak is fairly generous and I like how they plate it as well as the Nasi Goreng. Mee goreng was a tad oilier and not my fave. The Teh Halia is hot but would be better if ginger is stronger. Overall I would visit again simply because it's pretty good for the price you pay. The Nasi Goreng and Mee Goreng comes with egg and costs only $6.20. They are having a promotion in July for dinner - 20% off all menu items. If you pass by and want to try, good time to try. I would be happy to visit and pay full price even if promotion is over. Hope they keep up the standard.
