DOSA on Valencia (CLOSED)

Oct 1st, 2020

Authentic south Indian food with a pleasant San Francisco vibe. I like everything they serve. Delicate sambhar with fresh vegetables, soft idlis, perfect vadas. My son loves their chef's special eggs, coconut french toast. We come here at least twice a month for their delectable brunch..an authentic south Indian thaali . Service is always amazing

This place has been on my list for ages, but I never managed to get in without having to wait for 2 hours. Finally scored a seat here on a late Saturday afternoon at 2.45 pm. (15 mins before close) You get free pappadums to start your meal (yayy) We had the following: 1. lamb keema dosa: Yummy keema in wafer thin crispy dosa. Served with unique chutneys and Sambhar. Delicious and filling. 2. Egg curry and appam: this was so good, I could try. Delicious creamy cocunut milk based curry will leave you licking your fingers. The dish comes with one appam and coconut rice, both of which complement the curry to perfection. It’s not hard to see why this place is so popular!

Dosa(both Valencia and Filmore) is such a gem of a place! Both locations are cute and cozy and DELICIOUS!!! There are very few Indian restaurants that check all the three boxes of-great authentic tasting food, great service, and great ambiance and I feel DOSA is one of the few places that wins that trifecta. I usually go with the OG route by getting the classic masala dosa but my friends who have tried other things on the menu were also mostly pleased. I switched it up last time and got Mysore masala and was pleasantly surprised 😊 My only complain/constructive feedback would be making it so that one can omit an ingredient in potato masala if they wanted to. For example, my mom doesn’t like cashew nuts so we asked for one without it but they told us how cashew nuts are just part of the recipe and ground into the potato masala. We were fine but I could see another friend or a person having a nut allergy who’s miss out on that dosa JUST because it had cashew nuts in it.

Probably one of the better Indian restaurants I’ve had in the bay. The food comes out quick and is soooo good. The Arctic char curry is an absolute winner, pass on the lamb curry and the sliders, MUST get the sandbar (lentil dumplings)...they’re basically friendly for everyone (vegan, gluten free, nut free!). Dosa of course is delicious, love the presentation...fave was paneer and peas. They also carry Indian beer!
