Food This place is extremely convenient for weekday dinners for us as it's near our swim school. Traditional South Indian food done well. Onion rava masala dosa, yes please! My son loved his mango lassi and his idli. My husband had chicken biryani - the quantity was huge and prices are reasonable and he said that it was a 4/5. Service The service was kind, prompt and fairly quick service. Ambiance It had a cafe-type feel with high tops and booths. It was quiet on a rainy Sunday and perfect for a family of three. We are happy and full. read more

This is a new restaurant that took over the Pastries and Chaat spot in the Lidl shopping center. Was great to see that there's a vegetarian restaurant on this side of town. Was surprised that they only have 2 options/ specials when we went for lunch on Saturday. There's a thali platter with an assortment of dishes as well as a mini tiffin option with dosa, idli, vada, pongal & a sweet. The tiffin platter was a generous portion. Everything was well made and flavorful. Looking forward to going back to try the other menu options. read more

I came with high expectations but left disappointed. When the food arrived it looked yummy but the taste didn't match the look. Veg thali was so basic. They had very basic dal and the curry was a potato fry. Chapati was dry and didn't taste fresh. White rice was also dry and not soft. Vada was filled with black pepper. Every bite I was tasting whole black pepper and it wasn't pleasant. Additionally, service was on the slower side. We were the first to arrive but thali arrived first and roti/papad arrived much later. The dishes were Luke warm and gulan jamun was Cold. They could do better with service and quality of food. Overall, I don't recommend the thali here. read more

3.5* This place has lot of potential and I hope the management realizes that. Very good location and simple vegetarian menu. My friend and I ordered almost the same items the two times we were there in an interval of two weeks. Our food tasted different from the first time dining there. Poori was really good and Dosa was decent, though one of us got a slightly burned dosa. The filling still tasted good. Medhu vada went down the hill the second time. Way too greasy. I would love to visit a 3rd time when the filter coffee comes on the menu and hopefully give a 5* review. read more

What a great restaurant that servers steel nuts for breakfast ...we visited them today morning and found steel hexagonal nut in the food.....beware..... read more

Unfortunately this was a bad experience. The place not well kept. The menu looks huge set of options. Unfortunately the food quality is terrible and it seems the food is precooked and just warmed up and served. Sambar felt like it might have even come out of a frozen container. I have had better chole from a frozen container warmed up then what they served. The paneer butter masala felt the same, too oily, just warmed. They couldn't even get white rice freshly cooked. Those looked like microwaved after being kept in the fridge. read more

I love coming here for a South Indian breakfast. The staff are friendly and the food is delicious read more

Food was so bad that I can't even express. We ordered Masala Dosa -Masala Dosa was stale with absolutely no salt or any spice. The potato inside had absolutely no taste (spiceless) and was cold and stale. The sambar was terrible and so was chutney. Half items on there menu were not avaiable and what was available was also terrible. Wasted $30 and would not recommend this place at all for food. read more

The food is great! We love their chicken noodle and the dosa. It's strange that it's so quite all the time. They definitely deserved more attention! read more

Would have given them 5 stars but eating spicy food and at a day when it's 80's outside with their AC not working well and ice machine broken, it was hard to give five stars. Ordered Garlic Naan, Andhra Chicken Curry, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Masala Chai. However, no chai for the day which was disappointing since I wanted t o try their chai. The garlic naan was crispy and thin so it's not a mouthful but enough to dip in curry sauce. The Andhra Chicken Curry was spicy just the way I like and the Chicken Tikka Masala was on point as well. read more

First of all, no toilet paper. Asked for water with meal. No water. Garlic naan was not melt in your mouth, but slightly burned and crunchy. Paneer had no flavor. Spicy fried cauliflower tasted like spicy ketchup. Oh, and our neighbors who ordered after us received their cheese pizza before we did. We canceled the order and fed our daughter at home. Eat elsewhere. read more

It's below average place. Many other better options in the area. Food must be served hot. No table service. Plastic ware kept close to restroom. read more

I tried menu vada, and it was pretty good. I don't expect them to make a pizza, and I would suggest they remove it from the menu as it will unnecessarily put them down. Focus on south Indian food. There is a lot of demand read more

Stopped by on Sunday morning with my family and was so impressed by the food and the service here. Everything was fresh, delicious, and authentic. The onion rava dosa was the best we've had, the vadas were amazing, and the whole staff was so sweet and accommodating. If we lived in town, we would come back every weekend! read more

Beat south indian food!! If you are from Andhra, tamil nadu or kerala, you should come here!!​

Good food..we tried both South Indian and North Indian dishes..it would be better if it is a full service restaurant

Sitting in a corner of a strip mall near high house and 55, Nandini is an unassuming South Indian restaurant. We ordered take out of a typical South Indian snack menu of of medu vada, idli, onion Uthappam and masala dosa. Carry out has its challenges with this cuisine, but an air fryer really helped making the spicy vadas crisp on the outside and soft on the inside (somewhat spicy). The onion Uthappam was ok ( should cook more in the inside) and the masala dosa would have been better eating at the restaurant, but was tasty nevertheless.. the accompaniments:: the sambar was spicy and good, the peanut chutney was tasty and the coconut chutney was so so.. overall excellent value for money, and with better chutneys in terms of consistency and taste, Nandini could be a good addition to the area with good quality South Indian food. I have been told service can be slow, but 6:30 pm on a weekday it was a breeze.. hope they continue to keep up and improve their standards.. read more
