"The best dosa in SF. They give 3 flavorful chutneys and Sambar. The dosa tastes fresh in their special packaging. The signature dosas are packed. Already ordered again "
"!!!!! IMPORTANT TO NOTE !!!!!
THIS IS AN ORDER ONLY PLACE WITH NO SEATING AT ALL. THERE IS NO DINE IN. YOU CAN ONLY ORDER ONLINE OR FOR PICKUP.
My husband and I have been on a serious dosa kick lately because we love dosa, and we ordered from ID Cafe the other day because it is just that amazing.
The food absolutely hit. Our favorite was the Vijayawada chicken dosa. It was packed with flavor, perfectly spiced, and incredibly satisfying. Everything tasted fresh and well made, and you can tell they really know how to do dosa right.
As long as you go in knowing it is takeout only, it is 100 percent worth it. If you are a dosa lover or craving solid South Indian food, this place is a great choice. We will definitely be ordering from here again."

"The Chicken Kheema Dosa is a bit weird, but pretty good, and also a ton of food for a decent-for-SF price. It's a gigantic dosa (in an even more gigantic package), with a softer, more crepe-like texture than I've had before (but then I'm hardly an expert on South Indian food). The soft, light dosa stuffed with a ton of minced chicken is a bit messy to eat, but definitely worth it. The green (coconut?) chutney perfectly complements the dosa and chicken; the resulting combination has lots of flavor and a bit of spice. The orange (tomato?) chutney is less exciting, but still not bad. And there's two sambar, as well. Really, the only negative is that there will be a ton left over and I have no idea how to reheat dosas without destroying them…
Anyway, I'm happy I accidentally ordered from the wrong dosa place, but after this pleasant surprise, I will order from them again (and it won't be an accident). There's tons of other stuff on the menu that looks worth trying."
"It’s an ideal way to kick off your lazy weekend with a delightful South Indian Vegan Breakfast. From the meticulous attention to packaging, the fluffy texture of Idli/idly, to the harmonious balance of sambar and chutneys, I thoroughly enjoyed this nutritious and delectable breakfast (and it comes in sufficient quantity it might also cover lunch). It's a perfect blend of healthiness, flavor, savoriness, and light on calorie intake. I surely coming back to try some more."

Nan is nan but they do that right too.
Excellent quality meal."

"Everything was delicious, fresh and beautifully spiced. Saag Paneer is perfect, not too rich and really well balanced; Samosas stayed crispy even after a few hours in the fridge! Only complaint is the pieces of chicken in the Butter Chicken Masala were tiny, more like shreds. Definitely one of the best Indian restaurants available on DD."

I've ordered from this place 5+ times now in the last 2 months, and every time the quantity of biryani is plenty.
The taste is authentic and it's just consistent, which is perfect. I've tried 15-20 different places for biryani in SF, and this, I think, is the best one right now."
"Ordered Non-Veg Platter and butter Naan.
The platter had:
Chicken Manchurian – Really tasty and reminiscent of General Tso’s chicken, but less sweet.
Chili Momos – I had no idea what to expect, but these were excellent. The dumplings seemed fried, then tossed in a peppery, savory sauce with bell peppers and onions. The sauce wasn’t runny—it coated each momo evenly. It reminded me of a Chinese stir-fry, but lighter and less greasy.
Chicken Tikka – Tender, juicy, and full of savory flavor. Perfect with the butter naan.
Fish Fry (Swai) – This one surprised me the most. The minced onion sauce on the crispy fish was delicious! It’s more of a paste than a liquid, but the flavor was incredible. It even reminded me of fermented black bean sauces used in Chinese stir-fries.
Highly recommend this place. Will try other dishes next time."

"I had the Vegetable Tikka Masala which had a super delciou creamy orange sauce including broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, peas, and zucchini. The money is definitely from the sauce as it is one of the best curries I ever had. However I found that there could be more volume of vegetables in the dish. I didn't find it enough. It is the same price as the lamb curry on doordash which is a meat dish so more the reason to give more. So I give it four stars instead of five for this reason. Also dont forget to give me utensils since I asked for it on DoorDash. Otherwise I've come to this restaurant a couple other times and recommend the goat curry as well. "
"Trisara is my new favorite Indian spot in SF. The naan is the best I've had here and the chicken tikka masala is creamy and delicious. A welcome new addition to downtown!"

"I'm a regular customer of this restaurant. Their food is tasty and fresh. Portions are decent. Would order again."
"The Chicken Biryani (Gluten Free) was just an oily blob of rice, and the chicken wasn't flavourful. Not sure what was "biryani" about that oily rice.
The Eggplant Pakora(Vegan) was not crispy at all, and there was barely any pakora batter on the slices. Very overpriced for what you get."

"5/5 for Chicken MoMo (10 pcs). Their momo are full of chicken, soft, flavorful, and have thin dumpling wrapper which gives a really nice texture. You get full after eating 6-7 of them because they're huge. I love their portion size and taste. It's worth it for $15. Plus they're halal too. "
"I’ve tried a lot of butter chicken from restaurants around the city and this is the only one that tastes like actual butter chicken. Rich and creamy instead of a sour tomato-y flavored ones from other places that don’t resemble butter chicken at all. And the portion size was great too for the price. Hopefully the quality stays up over time. "

"Chicken Biryani and Chicken Seekh Kabob Karahi were perfect, well seasoned, the right amount of salt and not overwhelmingly spicy. We love ordering from here! "
"Chicken Karahi used to be great, with boneless tender stewed chunks of chicken. But tonight it was mostly bone and barely any meat that was tough. They even put whole neck in there (all bones). Seasoning is still two thumbs up though. I'm more sad than upset really."

"The thali was so good. I've rarely had Indian food in the Bay area where they try and be balanced about the nutritional value in the food. There were enough greens and salad, the curries had vegetables in them and not just the typical orange fatty curry you get at Indian restaurants.
The saag in the thali was so tasty and fresh"
"It's ok. Tikka Masala was a bit watery and same with the Mango Lassi. The food isn't bad at all, but I used to live near several Indian food places that had more flavorful and rich tasting food. Like for example, the Mango Lassi I'm used to is sweet, mildly sour and rich and has some consistency, whereas this one tastes watered down. Again, not bad, food could just be richer."
