Had a fantastic dosa with kidney beans. I came early for lunch and was able to ask questions about the menu because there were no crowds. food here is delicious!

The review is based on my two visits to this place.
We tired multippe dishes and one of them was Tamarind rice. It was bursting with tangy and spicy flavors. Cooked with tamarind juice, mustard seeds, curry leaves, and a variety of aromatic spices, the dish was a distinct sour and slightly sweet flavor that was unique and unforgettable. The rice was cooked to perfection, each grain perfectly separated and infused with the flavors of the spices.
Kachori was crispy fried pastry filled with spiced lentils and potatoes. The outer layer was crispy and flaky, and the filling was well spiced and flavorful. The kachori was served hot and fresh, and the flavors of the filling melded together perfectly. It was accompanied by a tangy and spicy tamarind chutney that balanced the flavors of the kachori perfectly.
Mango ras puri was delightful experience to eat. The crispy puris (fried bread) soaked in a sweet and tangy mango sauce was a bring-back moment of memory for me. . The puris were perfectly fried, and the mango juice was sweet and tangy. The sabji is not that flavourful and it has nothing to do with the taste of it. Because I have a habit of eating little spicy sabji, and that was not. So can't complain.
This was my first visit to Shri Balaji Bhavan. All I can say is, "Wow! I loved it." The food was fresh and homemade and they cover Mumbai to Madras. You can have it super spicy or mild based on your preference. The value is excellent. I'll definitely be back.
There set up is typical Chennai restaurant style. First order and pay bill then table token will given to you keep in your table and wait for service call. Once the call your number you can go and collect it.
Also you can back the items by your self. if it is order for table is more.
Reasonable price and good taste.
When in Houston for me this is a must visit. Besides having the best dosas, their vegetarian South Indian fare is prepared authentically (spice too 😜). This time around I went two consecutive days even though I am literally on the opposite part of town. Idli, Dosa and Sambar one day, Papdi Chaat, Pani Puri, and of course another Dosa the next.
Returned to this restaurant after a few years. There have been some upgrades to the location. Went with a party of 7 and while there were only about 10 other customers, service was a little slow. They also seemed to pick and choose whom to provide table service for, ie., deliver food to. Had to remind them about stuff that was already ordered and paid for. The food was pretty good overall and served hot. The variety of items available and low prices more than speak for themselves. Definitely worth a visit for authentic Indian vegetarian fare.

Visited today after a long time. Even though we are in the middle of a pandemic, service has improved dramatically. Food was served hot, fresh, and tasty. All staff were friendly and the visit was well worth it. If you haven't, you must visit. The restaurant has all COVID-19 measures in place along with social distancing of the in house consumers. You will not be disappointed, guaranteed!
100% authentic Indian food. No frills & very basic. The food is amazing and a great value for money. Totally recommend this restaurant!!

Walked in at 1PM on a Saturday. Restaurant was quite busy but found a table easily. The server handed me a many and told me to order at the counter.
I ordered Rava Masala Dosa, it came within ten minutes. Very hot and fresh. Potato Subzi was very tasty and fresh as well as the coconut chutney. Sambar could have been a bit more spicy.
Although busy, restaurant and washrooms were very clean.
If your not too familiar with South Indian food, they have a picture menu.
Would definitely recommend. Fantastic value for money.
Sauce for the chole was so tasty I accidentally bit my own finger and this is why I need silverware. The lighting flickers through the ceiling fan blades and might be bad for certain epileptics. Honestly I'd recommend it. good and fast service.
This was my wife's favorite spot during her pregnancy and it has stuck with us for the long run. The pricing is amazing for the quality and quantity of the food. The cashier is very friendly and nice to everyone. Food comes out fast and piping hot. It is a bit spicy sometimes but then again what is Indian food without the heat. Their Madras thali and mango ras puri is amazing too. I do wish they provide better water but tap water seems to suffice. Plenty of seating available. Bathrooms can be little more upgraded and modernized.
