Underwhelming and Limited - Edit
I was super excited to try out this place. Really bummed that we didn’t like it. I thought a lot of the items on the menu would taste different- but it’s literally just the same base with a couple of different toppings that don’t change the flavor profile. We ordered the classic dosa and the supreme. I thought it was fine. The serving size is generous, but once you’ve tried it, it’s done. I don’t have a desire to go back since they’re all pretty similar. Maybe the experience is different for non-vegans, but that kinda defeats the purpose.
Read morePros: Sambar Soup is good, Serving size is perfect
Cons: Basically same dish w/ 1-2 toppings difference , Vegan options are just substitutes , No vegan cheese :(

Something different :) - Edit
Ganesh Dosa:
Read moreSmall little Indian place, with plenty of seating, everything is pretty upfront/straightfoward. Kind service, plenty of parking.
Classic Dosa: never tried before, pretty good, something new and quality for a reasonable price with the quality. Not sure if I would brag about the place, but it’s somewhere worth trying
Supreme Dosa with avocado instead of cheese: (from a non-vegan- “not bad, idk I’m not a good review person- I would go back with you.. not on my own)
The product is good, but I’d just like to see a broader selection I suppose. But I could see myself back here at some point.
For what it is- it’s a solid 3.5 stars, but I’ll say 3. I could see them working towards a 4. Definitely worth a shot nonetheless
Pros: Service, Parking, Different option than typical

Absolutely blown away - Edit
Absolutely delicious. So impressed by how they offered vegan substitution options that actually re-balanced the flavors in the dosa after removing the cheese. Really appreciated all the variety and it was spiced so well.

Great service great Big Dosa! My non-vegetarian husband and I celebrated my 34th Vegiversary here and it did not disappoint. Loads of fresh veggies all tucked into a delicious dosa! For dessert check out the chocolate factory next door!

I ordered the Classic dosa with potato masala. It was flavorful, but not spicy. I dipped it in the Sambar soup, which is a lentil soup with potatoes, tomatoes, spinach, and Indian spices and seeds.
Read morePros: quick service, big portions
Cons: plastic containers for chutney, bathroom in other building

And what of the many "Indian" pizza parlors serving "Indian pizza"? And what of the Indian bakeries serving "elaichi cheesecake" etc...? Is that not also cultural appropriation?

Comforting and Filling - Edit
This place is a wonderful addition to my restaurant rotation. Every single dosa has a vegan option, except for the dessert dosa. My favorite is the Chef Recommendation. The sambar is so delicious. I honestly can't decide if the coconut or the tomato chutney is my favorite, so I usually get one of each.
Read moreThis meal always feels like a warm hug, and is a great alternative to when I don't feel like cooking.
Pros: Delicious, Friendly staff, Very filling
Cons: No vegan dessert dosa

Delicious! - Edit
I had the classic and it was soooo good! If you go here you will not be disappointed! They also had clearly labeled substitutes which made me think that they definitely have thought about the vegan options and it wasn’t missing anything.

Truly amazing - Edit
This restaurant was delicious, quick, and unique. And almost everything can be made vegan. What more could you ask for! I had the Mediterranean and my girlfriend had the classic, both were really good. They said that they used to make vegan Lassi but their wasn't enough demand - maybe if everyone asks we can make it happen!
Read morePros: Tons of vegan options, Delicious

Tasty crepe lunch inside the Ward mall. - Edit
Most or all of the menu can be made vegan. I tried the Classic and the Masala Crepes. Both great, potato and and Indian spice filling with some greens, a coconut spread and a small chickpea soup or sauce like a lablabi. Check website hours because they may close at 2:30 pm.
Read morePros: Great lunch option. , I walked a mile to get there and it was worth it., Nice people with beautiful food.
Cons: Update: ask if non vegan butter used for crepe.

Great Dosa in a Fun Marketplace - Edit
The marketplace is definitely worth the trip, and the Dosa was really great. I had the plain dosa, and the crepe was crispy, and the filling was good and pretty typical of a plain dosa. The coconut chutney was a little thick, but tasted good. The sambar soup on the side was excellent and spicy! I wish I had more.
Read morePros: Fun location, Great Dosa, Excellent Sambar
Cons: Limited seating
