Murugan Cafe

Kowshika Reddy

I recently visited this cafe and had the dosa and vada and I must say, they were absolutely delicious! The flavors instantly took me back to the kind of authentic South Indian food I grew up with. The food quality was excellent, and everything tasted fresh and perfectly prepared. I was also really impressed with the hygiene and overall maintenance of the place super clean and well-kept. The staff, along with the management, were incredibly friendly and responsive, which made the whole experience even better. If you’re craving a nostalgic Indian meal that hits all the right notes, this spot is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Hands down one of the best South Indian joint although prices are on the higher side probably due to the location. The Dosa and filter coffee are amazing!

Yummy south indian food ! Very close to Niagara State park! Loved it

Authentic South Indian dishes and freshly prepared. Apart from this, the chef and his assistant were very kind, genuine and truly reflected Atithi devo bhava 🙏🏻😊. Thank you for the experience and such hospitality makes us come back over and over again. Please open another pure Veg cafe in the Detroit region, with the same chef and there is no proper south Indian veg restaurant in the Detroit metropolitan region. Keep up the good work!

Great south Indian food. Very authentic. Pongal was our favorite apart from Dosa and other items. Quick service. Their filter coffee was great!! We returned back the next day. Pricing is a bit at a higher end considering the location and proximity to the park

We tasted their sambaar rice, veg biryani and drank masala tea. Almost after 15 days of American tour ,finally had our comfort food. The sambaar rice was hot with lots of veges and ghee. Soul satisfying experience. Just loved it.

We tried the parota with kurma along with other tiffins like dosa, sambar idly, and ghee pongal. The parota was the highlight – soft, flaky, and delicious with the kurma. The other items were also good and satisfying. A great spot for authentic South Indian food near Niagara Falls! Pandi and palani one of the best chefs were so friendly with customers. Very satisfied with the food.

Great South Indian food 6 min from the Canadian border and right across the Hyatt Place Buffalo NY. The coffee is delicious! A MUST! Prices are a bit on the high side but that's what all tourist areas charge!

Delicious vegetarian! Right by the front entrance to the state park. Staff was super helpful and suggested some dishes. Came over to ask how we liked it and then sent us with an extra of our favorite chutney!

Food was delicious. Menu is fully South Indian cuisine. Customer service was excellent. Hard to find tables. Wait time was around 15 to 20 minutes over a weekend. Sambar vadai was having too much black pepper. Price was high. It’s hard to find parking, better to leave the car in maid of the mist parking lot 1 and reach here by walk. Will recommend this place for South Indian food.

Recently had a brunch with family at Murgan Cafe. The dosa, idli, and vada were delicious. However, the food being served in disposable containers wasn't ideal. Given the prices, I expected a bit more in terms of quality and quantity. Despite that, it was a nice change to have South Indian food after a while. Overall, a decent experience.

The dosa was absolutely delicious and the samosa were enjoyable. The mango lassi was creamy and thick. We are not vegetarian but we loved it.

Visited Murugan Cafe in Niagara Falls, NY on August 3rd around 10:45 PM. Overall, it was a decent late night stop if you’re craving South Indian vegetarian food. We tried the parotta with veg kurma and a dosa. The parotta was flaky and filling, and the kurma had good flavor, though it could’ve been a bit hotter and more consistent. The dosa was crispy and freshly made, but the chutneys and sambar felt slightly average, just nothing standout. The place was busy and had a family crowd, which gave it an authentic vibe. It’s self-service, so don’t expect much table service, but things were fairly organized even with the rush. Seating is simple and functional, nothing fancy. Good option if you’re nearby and want something familiar late at night, but there’s still room to improve in consistency and overall experience.

It’s just like a fast food outlet,place your order, pay and then when they call out your number, go pick up your food, tried the dosa and ghee rice, dosa was ok, ghee rice a total disaster.

Tried the idli and the food tasted really good, soft, flavorful, and fresh. However, I noticed the chef was not wearing gloves and was handling all the ingredients with bare hands. While the taste was great, better hygiene practices would definitely improve the overall experience.
