I was visiting friends when I came across this place late at night. This establishment has been around for more than 20 years with a second location in East Windsor. Upon entry, it looks a typical sit down restaurant; plenty of seating, side booths, and just enough lighting. The service was wonderful as I came in with a small group, approximately seven people including me. I would say that I would have liked it better if all of our orders were served at the simultaneously rather than have it served once the dish was ready. Here's what I ordered: -Mysore Masala Dosa -A much larger size than what I usually have. This savory crepe was folded in a triangular crepe-like shape rather than the traditional omelette kind. The filling was cooked well and once I dipped it in the sambar and chutneys, my taste buds were attacked by various flavors and spices. Individually, the dosa was decent and the sambar could have used a little more spice. I would have rather enjoyed more if they were also good by themselves and not in combination. -Spring Dosa -This was probably the least favorite thing I ordered. Presentation-wise, this looks they quickly sautéed some veggies and then rolled into the dosa. Alone, it was a little bland, so I had to constantly dip it into the sambar to get some taste. -Kadai Panner -Judging by the fact that it's called "Dosa Grill," I suspected that this dish would lean into more on the underwhelming side. Not sure how they made the gravy, but to me it felt more tomato forward than what was described on the menu. -Paneer Mysore Dosa -This was probably one of the best dosas I had. The paneer absorbed the masala so well that I could taste it from every bite I had. This was the only dish where I could say that the dosa itself tasted fantastic and I did not have to combine it with the sambar, which I a totally different experience itself. -Onion Chilli Utthapam -This is something I am very well familiar with growing up, so I wanted to see how they do. Knowing the base ingredients are similar to how one would make dosas, I figured it should hold up on the same bar. Much like the spring dosa, the experience with utthapam was better if it was eaten along side the sambar. By itself, all I tasted was onions and chilli and much else. I would have liked a little more spice in my opinion. Overall, I had a good time at Dosa Grill. If I had to pick one note, it would probably be not to hold back on the spices. read more

Rating this place based off their Wednesday night buffet. They have AYCE dosas and a good selection of buffet items. The service us fast and buffet area is kept clean and stocked. This place gets busy so keep that in mind. I get the gun powder dosa. Another patron recommended the coconut Dosa to pair with their ice cream.... Big thanks to her!! That was phenomenal read more

This is the place to go to for the tastiest and most savory dosas in the No Brunswick/So Brunswick area! Take advantage of their buffet that are only available on Fridays and weekends. Food arrived quickly but may need some flagging to get more attention even on an early Wednesday lunch. read more

Was around somerset area and wanted to have a quick dinner and spotted this restaurant . Looking at 4.3 star review in google , I went to this restaurant .. first time . Restaurant was crowded.. service was worst . No one would even come to table and take order .. had to call them twice or thrice to get someone take order ... and after order - IT TOOK 45 mins for a dosa to be served ... 45 mins for a dosa ??? Ufff. After 45 mins I was eagerly waiting to taste the dosa , and it was such a disappointment!!!!!! Dosa was very ordinary.. Sambar had less salt and didn't taste south indianish.. please don't think this is South Indian restaurant . It is not ! Onion rava was another disappointment ! I wanted to give 1 star but luckily the chilly parotta was good . Just for that, I'm giving 2 stars ! Ambience was ordinary .. Will not go back again . Very disappointing visit :. read more

Visited this amazing spot close to home, thanks to my brother's recommendation for their Wednesday Dosa buffet! The buffet runs from 5:45 PM to 9:30 PM, and we arrived around 8:30. We kicked off with idly, wada, and a variety of chutneys and sambhar. Then came naan with paneer butter masala, uthapam, and samosas, which were all fantastic. They also offered two types of rice, rasam, chaat, and desserts like mango lassi, gulab jamun, and ice cream. For dosa, you place an order separately--we tried the butter Mysore masala dosa, paneer masala dosa, and Madurai masala dosa, all of which were delicious. The buffet is priced at around $22 per person, and it's totally worth it. While the variety of items isn't vast, the quality more than makes up for it. The dining space was comfortable, and the service was very professional. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy some great vegetarian food, especially vegetarians! They also have a regular veg menu on other days. Sharing a few pictures I captured from this visit! read more

On Monday, Oct-28, We straight away came from Newark airport to get some food and reached the restaurant at 9:20PM. They closed the restaurant at 9:20 unannounced, even though the Signboard at the door said "Open". We were starving and the folks at the restaurant were not even apologetic. Very very unprofessional behavior. Have been going there for almost 20 years, and first time we were very disappointed. The posted timings are shown in the attached picture. read more

I think 3 Stars is about the right rating. 1. The Uttapam was excellent. It was Onion Hot Chilli Tomato Uttapam. 2. We also had Idli and IdliVada Sambhar combo. 3. The chutneys are good decent I would say. They give tomato chutney and coconut chutney 4. Service is good and they bring the food promptly. 5. The sambhar was the low light and it was one of the worst sambhars I have tasted. It was thick almost like yesterdays left over daal. There was no taste of sambhar and it had no tadka.. It could go as Daal Fry if it was little more thick than what we had. read more

I've been here only once and tried only their Wednesday Dosa buffet, but I can already vouch this to be one of the best authentic South Indian vegetarian restaurant and Dosa place in the Garden state. They have a display of awards they have won and that's certainly a testimony to what they offer. We went here just by the reviews and was surprised how a modest looking place can pack a punch with its taste and pleasant customer service. The food was out of the world and tasted just how it would if you are to walk into a South Indian restaurant, back in India. We got here on a Wednesday night to try the dosa buffet and had no disappointments. They charge $19.99 per person for unlimited food, which is nominal. The dosas variety is a lot and the other various foods served in the counters are delicious too. They keep refilling them and don't let you wait. The only pickle point is that they didn't have pickles to side the curd rice (which's a must in South Indian type of eating) ;) We can't wait to try this place on other days and their other delicacies. Dosa Grill, you found yourself, new patrons in us! read more

Somehow had not been here before and finally tried it a few days ago. We were seated immediately around 6:30pm, although it did fill up quite a bit by 7:30-8ish. I ordered the paneer uttapam and my friends had rava masala dosa. Everything was delicious and the prices are super reasonable. Will definitely be back. read more

We had Dosa Party for our son's graduation party. They arrived on time. Food was excellent. They gave us appetizer, desert, lassi, one rice item and 8 varities of Dosas. Guests loved the food and every one was happy with the service . Will 100% recommend Dosa Grill --Mallik, PA read more

We came here for dinner and were very happy when we found out that it was going to be a dosa buffet. We got to order dosas off the menu and also got to check out the buffet. The mango lassi was my favorite. I visited that at least 2 times. LOL. One item at the buffet that stood out to me was the mushroom biryani. I've never had this and loved it. Daughter ordered Paneer Mysore Dosa and thought it was nice and hot and delicious. It had paneer and egg in it and these were two of her favorite things to eat in Indian restaurants. She would definitely order this again, no questions asked. Hubs had the Spinach Masala Dosa and said that he missed Indian buffets. He liked his dosa a lot and said that he liked most of the items at the buffet. He , especially liked the naan, mushroom biryani and chaat. I thought the chaat was sweet and didn't care for it. This was our first buffet since the pandemic and we were very happy with this place. Lastly, I had Onion Chili Masala Dosa and this was delicious. I had this elsewhere and it's made differently than when I last had it. I still loved it. It had just the right amount of spicy to us where it wasn't overwhelming. Service was friendly and quick. They were very accommodating on daughter's peanut allergies. Will definitely return to try other dosas and items on the menu. read more

Been dining on Dosa Grill ever since I was a kid. This is a go to spot when I have family visit and we want dosas. One of my favorite Franklin food spots. FOOD - spot on Dosa place. If you want classic dosas done right this is the place. Period. Also their chai and snacks like papdi chaat and bhel puri are some of the best! SERVICE - always friendly and accommodating. When I've gone to dine there with a big party we always get a nice table that fits everyone. The staff is great with menu questions and timely with food production. Post COVID I've gotten delivery once (through Yelp/Grubhub). HOURS - they close mid day I think 230-530pm. TOGO/DELIVERY - Food was very fresh and hot upon arrival. I ordered 3 dosas, 2 appetizers, and 2 beverages. The Masala and sambar was packed separate from the dosas to keep everything fresh. They included sugar with the chai too which is nice extra touch. I ordered close to their mid day closing time and called to speak to them about my order they not only assured me they would get it done before closing but they called me after the Grubhub driver picked up to let me know food is on the way. Beyond excellent service! I placed a big order too so I'm super impressed and thankful because I couldn't wait 3 hours for it if I had to wait for after they reopened. One thing for improvement is on the delivery packs please write the Dosa type on the box. I ordered Butter Masala and a Masala Dosa but could tell which was which. (See picture). It didn't matter for me I ate them both but it might matter for someone else. I failed to take a pictures of papdi chaat and bhel puri packing because I ate it too fast but they pack it well and full! read more

Food quality is not that great. It's a commercial outlet. Ambience is fair and clean. Service is prompt.

We order from here as often as we can. Calling the restaurant directly had been very easy, eliminating the commission-robbing middleman and allowing us to easily ask questions about their menu. The Mysore Dosa is delicious and as hot as you might expect. Seeing stars is more like it, but I love it spicy! Most Indian restaurants use too much oil in their food. We've found them to be more like we are at home and their food is much easier to digest. read more

Food here is great. Place could feel claustrophobic when full. Awesome service. My favorites: Sambar Vada and Onion Rava Masala Dosa

Was super happy with this place. My mom was a bit apprehensive because it doesn't look that great by the exterior. But it was really nice inside and nicely decorated with photos! I'm super picky when it comes to dosa but this really hit the spot!! Sambar and chutneys were all good. read more

Dosa Grill - Palak Masala Dosa and Rava Dosa - Indian Near Me - North Brunswick, New Jersey

We were there on Thursday evening for dinner. This was our first visit and the lady had us seated immediately with menus. I ordered a Gunpowder Dosa while my partner ordered Rava Masala Dosa The food took more than an acceptable time to arrive and it was underwhelming. The spicy powder which was expected to coat the inside of my Dosa was stale and had an odd smell. It was nearly $12 and I had to eat it quickly without inhaling the stale smell. My partner had ordered the Rava Masala Dosa but it came like a plain Rava Dosa with masala in a container on the side. THAT is not how a Masala Dosa works! The masala should be inside so that the dosa has the sauces from masala oozing. It felt like the cook had missed the ordered, made a plain Rava Dosa, then was reminded and as a second thought, put the masala in a separate container on the side. While we were tempted to send both back and get a refund, being introverts and conscious about niceties, we paid, tipped and left. read more

We went to this place on Saturday for lunch. We ordered a la carte instead of buffet. We ordered Andhra dosa, masala dosa, onion chilli rava dosa, and paneer Mysore dosa. Good customer service. We will definitely go back. read more

Visiting Dosa Grill recently was refreshing. It's difficult to find a comfortable sit down south, or fine dining style South Indian restaurant these days. Dosa Grill meets my expectations. The service was solid, the food was phenomenal, and the environment was pleasing. The mushroom dosa was a gift from heaven. My girlfriend doesn't even love mushrooms but they were cooked so perfectly with crispiness and mild flavor that she enjoyed them! It was a rare occasion. I couldn't get enough. As a nice little location this could even double as a romantic date spot. read more

We were in this wonderfully diverse neighborhood and grabbed our usual vegan chickpea entrée that came with rice; we also got two pieces of roti and an order of Samosa for $20 total -price quite reasonable. I was pleasantly surprised when I went to pick up the food, having never been there before, to see a nice clean dining room & they also have a Buffet. And they were very nice; pretty much anyone who saw me standing waiting for the food made sure that I had been helped. No masks but that might be a thing now. For me I am taking/ eating outside & when inside with strangers, not eating because the mask is on. read more

The best dosas I've ever had! We love the food and environment, and the staff are always friendly and unintrusive. We don't live all that nearby, but we've been coming since 2003, whenever we find ourselves in the vicinity. read more

food was amazing and authentic, service was fast and the servers were extremely personable!

This place a hole in the wall with some great dosa. They also have a lot of different things here, which are all equally as great. Every time I go here, the service is amazing and the staff is very friendly. The food is also very fresh and the portions are great. With COVID, they are so easy to order and go in and pick up the food. It is packed well and still tastes really good. Highly recommend trying the coffee if you are a coffee lover! read more

Food was so good.... Proper South Indian authentic feel good food among this area so far... surely recommend for who miss South Indian food

This restaurant is excellent in all ways. The food is superb and the hospitality is top notch. I brought my family today for the dinner buffet and we all absolutely loved in.

Definitely try this place out if you haven't been! read more

Great food and ambience. Ravva dosa and pakora are our all time favourite. Food is served very hot and the service time is short.

Dosa Grill is the best Indian food in New Jersey! The service was also amazing. Highly recommend 10/10

The dosa and vada , sambhar and chutney were too salty for my taste. I couldn't enjoy my masala dosa.

Don't waste money here. Just hit oak tree road and you will be better off. Came to eat dosa and vada. They had buffet which included that. However the quality was bad. Masala in the dosa was mashed potatoes. read more

Chutneys are amazing so is sambar but the idli and vada is sub par. The vada isn't even crispy and that's the whole point of eating it lol idli was also hard. It was hot when served yet hard so not sure if it wasn't fresh or they can't get it soft. Dosas are pretty good and can't complain about it read more

Decent dosa place. Had a fair variety of dosa, but honestly :too classy. To me dosa is a humble breakfast/tiffin/late night food.. Not a four star experience. I'd rather walk into a hole in the wall dosa shop where I fend for myself and have to get my sambar from a community pot in the back than be served on fancy plates in a restaurant with ambiance. But, that's just my humble opinion. Dosa was decent but I prefer a crispier one and the idli here was a bit crumbly instead of soft and fluffy (but I find this in most places in the US). I ordered a gun powder masala dosa. It was decent but I should have asked for them to not put the masala in it. 9 times out of 10,i just want podi dosa,so.thats my faul. I believe my date got a paneer dosa of some sort (don't remember which kind but in my pictures his is the one rolled up, mine is the none rolled dosa.) I also knocked off a star for the coconut chutney... Just not enough flavor. Tasted mostly like coconut and oil. Sambar was decent. And the tomato chutney had a nice kick to it. I really wanted to give this place four stars because they served my tea in a davara which never happens anywhere I go. Made me feel like I was in Chennai again:) so kudos to dosa grill for that! However, the reason I'm sticking with 3 stars is because the food just didn't wow me, overall. I might go back to try it again. Mostly for the tea. read more

This place has the best South Indian food of any restaurant I have ever been. The food is just delicious: hot, fresh, crispy dosas served with hot, spicy sambhar and a variety of chutneys. My favorite is the tomato kind! I also love the weekday lunch buffet. For a reasonable price, you have access to unlimited quantities of hot vadas (fritters), sambhar, rasam, flavored rice, and a rotating variety of curries. You can also pick a small order of dosa, cooked to order. I like to get the cheese dosa, stuffed with the perfect amount of melty cheese. If buffets are not your thing, be sure to visit for dinner. There are tons of options for dosas, fluffy idlis, different types of vadas. Literally heaven; the only downfall is the inevitable food coma that follows a meal here. read more
