    Appetizer menu

    We went here to celebrate the anniversary of my BF's parents. The food was very tasty but sadly the service was seriously lacking. My bf's family made a couple of small requests (dosa fillings on the side) which were all but ignored. By the time everyone's meals had arrived, people were just too hungry to send anything back. If you don't mind rude/uninterested slow service with tasty food, check this place out.

    While buffet didn't have great reviews we still went ahead since we were hungry. Buffet was good. Items I loved the most: Idli 65, set uttapam, vada, Idli and fruit custard. The two chutneys were amazing too. Idli 65 was quite spicy and very well fried not to be oily. Set uttapam - bite size - was great. Vada were most amazing of everything. Soft, hot and great with chutneys or sambhar. Idli was great - soft and kind of melt in mouth. Dosas were great too. Items that were okay: Puri, Spicy Potato Sabzi, Dessert. Puri was a little oily - nothing amazing. Same goes for Sabzi. Instead of dry potato sabzi, the authentic Potato Bhaji would have made a better combination with Puri. There was a dessert whose name wasn't written but I wouldn't mind not knowing it since it wasn't much good. Nothing so great in ambiance. Service is just fine. They give C$2 off if you don't waste food which is a great initiative - definitely works for Indians.

    We frequent Nilgiri's and have always enjoyed their food despite the questionable service. Today around 6pm, we purchased vadais to take to a relative's house. A child in the home we were visiting ate a vadai that had a large bolt in it. This is absolutely unacceptable. Thank goodness no one was hurt. We won't be buying from here anymore.

    Mysore masala dosa and cheese masala dosa.

    The dosa here are huge and they were delicious. Definitely the best tasting South Indian restaurant I have been to. We requested green chilli to be added for extra spice, and it was amazing. Got vada as a starter, and they were so good. Quite some wait time as they were really busy, but definitely worth it.

    The food doesn't have the typical South Indian flavour. Not worth it. The Nilgiris in Markham is much much better and better service

    Decent buffet on weekends. Food was delicious. Moderately priced with a $2 "no waste discount". Can't complain.
