No frills or thrills here, just good northern and southern Indian cuisine. – – The Food – Dishes from the south are more unusual than those from further north.

Best lunch under $5 you'll find anywhere in the area!!!!

Yes the service is incredibly rude, save the Hispanic busser who was very attentive and friendly. Yes the place is a bit dumpy and plays annoying high itched INdian music. Yes the buffet looks kind of gross. BUT, for 4.25 you can get a huge fresh Masala Dosa with a side of sambar and be full for the rest of the day. It is far and away the best lunch bargain in the area. I would skip everything else on the menu, we ordered a chili chicken app that was not at all good, tasted like soggy boneless buffalo wings.
Four stars for the delicious and dirt cheap dosa. (1 star for the buffet and rest of the menu)
- Pros: DOSA!!!!!
- Cons: pretty much everything else
