"Curd Rice was delicious, best of home cooking, very comforting, just perfect for a snack or late-night easy meal. Vadas were crispy and delicious, although undersalted. Puliyodharai was a huge disappointment, I did not enjoy it at all. It was very one-note with the sour tamarind masking every other flavor. Podi Dosa was, as always, crispy, thin, and delicious!"
"These 14 mini idlis were absolutely perfect for a South-Indian comfort meal. Soft, fluffy, and served steaming hot with a flavorful sambar and two chutneys — one coconut, one tomato. The sambar had just the right spice balance and depth; it didn’t feel oily or heavy at all. As a vegetarian, this is the kind of dish that hits home — light, nourishing, and authentic. The mini-idli format makes it fun and easy to eat, and you can taste that the batter’s well-fermented and freshly steamed. Verdict: Ideal for breakfast, lunch, or even a light dinner when you crave something homely and satisfying."

Not too spicy and delivered SO HOT that I didn’t need to reheat anything. Not to mention, the prices are also reasonable. Thank you Madurai Idli Kadai for being one of the best south indian restaurants in the bay area, even for delivered food! Please don’t change."

"This place is amazing !!! For the price that you are paying for (I got a tikka masala in a size medium) it was delicious !!! I was on a high eating it ngl when I ate it , but each bite was magnificent. I love the way everything was cooked together. It felt like each bite almost melted in a good way, especially the crust. Overall great experience !! Would order again"
"I've tried their Achari chicken and curry veg pizzas. Both delicious, their crust is perfectly light, airy, crispy and holds up under the toppings without falling apart. Topping choices are a good mix of traditional and Indian fusion, and perfectly cooked and seasoned. "

The potato filling is fresh and honestly the highlight of the dosa. This is our go-to spot whenever we’re craving a quick, satisfying masala dosa."
"The masala dosa was completely crushed. I ordered it as a surprise for my mom and she was so disappointed and sent me this picture. She said it tasted okay but it was super thin and kind of oily."

"Not a lot of places open late. Midnight. Ordered a supreme pizza and wanted to try something different and ordered a small curry chicken masala. Both tasted good. Lots of toppings with a Good crust. The small was only $15.99 and would be enough two peoplei think. The medium is enough for 2-3 people. If they arent piggies. Came with a good red crushed pepper and cheese. The Door Dasher was polite too. "
"The Butter Chicken Pizza is FIRE!!! Based on the $8 coupon I had, this is an amazing deal (size/flavor ratio). If you're a fan of Round Table Crust, this is almost a carbon copy, which to me, is amazing. The chicken is spicy (seems to be a similar sauce to the Garlic Chili Sambal) which is mild to me, but could be a hazard for the weak. Add the fresh cilantro, red onion, tomatoes and this pie really POPS!!! I would definitely this again, especially with a coupon. Would be great with a cucumber raita. :)"

"The Gully Boy (Saag Panner) pizza was absolutely amazing. So generous with the saag and the paneer. The Hero Pizza (Butter Chicken) was good but I should have gotten the spicy option. The hero is a great choice for people who cant hand the spice. The last pizza we got was on the cauliflower crust and was also outstanding."
"First off,the Potato Wedges were not wedges; Were seasoned fries. Not the same, and we were specifically seeking wedges, so that was disappointing. Fries were seasoned well, however. Pesto Artichoke Deluxe Pizza was the star of this show, creamy and a bit of tang from the artichokes. Chennal Express and 3 Idiots (Spicy Butter Chicken Pizza) were tasty. Be prepared for a fairly thick crust. The bread is good, but thick. Will order from them again, but not when craving wedges (don't know if mistake on menu or mistake by cooks)."
