I had been there for breakfast today. I ordered Idiyappam kadala curry and Puttu kadalacurry. Both were amazing. They even offered me extra kadala curry. The filter coffee is amazing as well! This place will always be my weekend breakfast.

The best puttu-kadala this side of the Atlantic. Honestly, it might even be either side of the Atlantic because I can’t recall ever having a better puttu-kadala. Definitely worth the trip, even a few detours to enjoy this experience and the friendliness of the staff/owner. Can’t wait to come back and try all the other items on the menu.

Awesome food, great taste, Paniyaram was so tasty with very less oil. Idiyapam and kadalai curry was also good. One of the best chutneys I have had in the Bay Area. Overall the food was of great quality.

We had the best Diwali party with Madhu's live dosa counter at home. 20 varieties of dosas, filter coffee, banana bajji were all excellent. The setup was simple and did not take up much space. Madhu himself was amazing serving dosas with a smile and he clearly took pride in his service. The kicker was that he added the rava kesari (yummy!) to the menu without any additional cost! I would highly re
