A good spot in the Cincinnati neighborhood if you are craving for some southern Indian cuisine. The service here is always decent, never had a bad experience with that in so many years. The food is good and hits the spot if you are craving some dosa, nothing extra ordinary though. If they make the chutneys more authentic or flavorful that might help elevate the taste of the dishes. It feels like it is more catered for the American customers. Everything in the menu is good but I feel the dishes are lacking something. They do offer buffet at really affordable prices. The place is clean and hygienic. It is also a completely vegetarian kitchen which may be a plus for many.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I was so excited for a South Indian buffet! I don’t think I even tried any of the main course items (naan or rice or biryani or curries). They had idli, vada, pongal, dosa, 2 different chutneys, sambar, rasam, curd rice, and dahi vada as well. These are just what I remember on top of my head. I loved the food and will be looking forward to come back again.

My husband and I drove a long way to visit this restaurant for their South Indian lunch buffet, but unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. While the variety was decent but the taste was off, and what was more concerning was that most of the items were served cold. Despite bringing this to the staff's attention, no corrective action was taken, which was disappointing. The service was also lacking, and to top it off, the restroom was not in a great shape. Given the price point of $15.99 plus tax, I expected a much better experience. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place and won't be visiting again.
