Great dosa restaurant. The dosas were huge. The little side dishes and dips were ok. The price is reasonable and atmosphere is great.

We enjoyed our dinner in Dosa Studio overall. The rava dosa, idli, and vada were fantastic. However, the masala dosa wasn't crispy enough. However, the white chutney and sambar were delicious. We really liked the option to get chutney and sambar unlimited times in a buffet style.

I tried the Saturday buffet here, and it was pretty good. There was a variety of different options available. The masala dosa stood out as the best dish. However, the pao bhaji was not up to the mark. Overall, it's worth a try for those who enjoy different South Indian food options.

Not the best South Indian food, the ingredients seem low quality and there isn’t much flavor in the sambhar and chutneys or idli. They’re designed to keep costs low and hence, their pricing is pretty low. I wouldn’t recommend this spot. Try San Idli instead. I came here cos the reviews were good and the pictures make the food look good. But it is quite disappointing.

Dosa Studio was a disappointing experience overall, with only a few redeeming aspects. Dosas: The dosas were the sole highlight of the meal—crispy, flavorful, and freshly-made (live counter). Unfortunately, they were the only item that stood out. Other Food Items: Everything else on the buffet was subpar. The idly, Pongal, and other dishes were of poor quality, lacking in both taste and freshness. Even the chutney and sambar, staples of South Indian cuisine, were a letdown. The “unlimited” buffet is misleading, as the quality simply doesn’t justify the concept. Service: The service left much to be desired. It was inattentive and unorganized, which only added to the disappointment. Ambience: The ambience wasn’t much better—uninspired and far from inviting, making the overall dining experience feel lackluster. Overall, apart from the dosas, everything about Dosa Studio falls short of expectations.

This is a relatively new restaurant in the area. They serve vegetarian food and have a south Indian menu along with some chaat dishes. We went there for lunch during a weekday. It was not crowded at all for 12pm. We ordered a podi dosa (surprisingly they were out of Mysore masala in the morning itself) and an idli Vada combo. Dosa was good but the podi (masala powder) kept falling out as if they did not put enough ghee/oil. Idli was also not great. They have the chutney bar from where you can pick whatever you want. Their sambar and rasam from the bar were delicious. Coconut chutney and peanut chutney were not that great. Will surely give them a shot again to see if things have improved. Cost wise they are very reasonable. They do charge a service fee if you are paying using a credit card. Cash payment gives you some discount as well. The staff is very friendly and the ambience is also good

This place has a good concept and some good flavors, but the experience was a bit hit or miss. Service was far from friendly. Tried a chat item and it was too oily, wasn’t served with any chutney; when asked we were directed to a buffet station that only had chutney and sambar cold that actually go with South Indian dishes but not chat items. Had to ask again at the counter for mint and red chutneys that go with chat. It’s a decent spot if you’re craving dosa, but there’s room for improvement to make the experience better.

Visiting SD from Midwest and stopped here for brunch. Not recommended unless really craving south indian food and willing to have 0 expectations. Had a few things including idly, mysore masala dosa, tomato onion chilli uttappam, Pongal, and Rava Kesari. Everything was subpar in terms of taste and flavor. Sambhar was more or less similar to runny dal as you wouldn't be able to tell that was sambhar if no one labeled it for you. Idly was too hard. Coconut and peanut Chutney were salty but ok (not authentic though). Rava Kesari had some flavor with good sweetness.

We tried the weekend brunch buffet at Dosa Studio and were quite disappointed. While the vada was crispy and the sambar was hot and flavorful, and the samosa chaat made at the counter was a nice touch, the rest of the experience fell short. The chutneys lacked any tempering or flavor, making them quite bland by Indian standards. The dosa service was extremely slow, and when it finally arrived, the dosa was very small with barely any aloo masala inside. The pooris looked overly oily, and although there were several curries that would pair well with rice, there was no white rice at all, which is very unusual for an Indian buffet. We went with a lot of excitement and hunger, hoping to enjoy a hearty and authentic Indian buffet, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the expectations and wasn’t worth the price. Definitely not the experience we were hoping for.

Rating: 1 star (if minus stars were possible, I’d give that) I came to Dosa Studio after a long time to have some Indian food, and honestly, the experience was a complete disaster. First, the food quality was unacceptable. I’d Vada, and it was clearly fried in old, reused oil. The smell was horrible, and it was impossible to eat. The Puri was the same—oily, stale, and unpleasant. This kind of food is not just bad tasting, it’s genuinely unhealthy. I don’t understand how people are eating this regularly. Second, the lack of manpower is shocking. There was basically one person running everywhere—taking orders, serving food, and managing the dosa counter. Because of this, the wait time was extremely long, and the whole place felt chaotic. There was a huge line, no proper management, and no concern for customer experience. With conditions like this, I seriously don’t understand how this place has high ratings. This was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. I would not recommend this place to anyone, and I definitely won’t be coming back.

Updated Review: I am updating my rating based on my last two visits in the past 6 months. The quality of food has gone really downhill in the last one year. All the items I tried are so bland and tasteless for buffet that costs 20$. I do not recommend this Old review: I went here for Thursday night Dosa buffet. This also includes idli, vada, pongal,..... Pros: The food was excellent and there are few varieties of dosas to choose from or make it custom from the dosa station. The idli, vada and dosa all are excellent and far better compared to other south indian places like San Idly or Chennai Tiffins Cons: They charge 3% extra for credit cards which is annoying for 21st century restaurant, and they didn't even tell us. My ecologist friend ordered idly for dine-in in proper metal plates. But they gave her to-go box and lots of plastic.

They serve the dosa without any chutney or sambar; instead, the sambar is kept in a buffet-style container, and it’s very cold. The staff isn’t welcoming, and the food quality is disappointing. We ordered three different types of dosa and an idli, and none of them tasted good. We took a few bites and left. If you want to waste your money, this is the place to go.

My apologies for how direct this review is but to everyone, please read this unfiltered review before coming here and this is the most honest, transparent review you will read of the buffet: Price per adult: $18.99 My SO and I are from Dallas, TX which has great south Indian food. We came here because we are big fans of dosas, idlis, sambar, peanut chutney, etc. I usually do not write reviews but I had to write a review for this place due to the high level of dissatisfaction we had. We visited the weekend buffett (very clearly adversed on the front of the store for 10:00 AM*-2:00 PM*) Reasons as to why this place got 1-star: Timing and Communication, Service: 0.5/10 -Poor timing and Communication: As soon as we got there at 9:50 AM, we waited and knocked on the door at 10:00 AM because it did not appear open. Then, the front clerk informed us that the kitchen was not ready and would open at 10:30 AM. -Significant delays in the presentation of the food to the buffet. When we came in, there were no idlis, dosas, or anything besides some curries and chutneys present. There was also a delay in tea and only water and butter milk present. We asked about the ETA and we were told "a few minutes and to place our orders for dosas (even though it says buffet)." I ordered a masala dosa and my SO ordered a plain dosa at 10:30 AM on the dot. We received our order slightly after 11:00 AM. Food Quality/Compatibility: 3/10 (generous) If I have a (D) by the food, it was delayed -Pros: Puris (D) were large, flaky, and flavorful. Chole (not delayed) was okay-decent. I actually ate the chole most with everything. Tea (D) was actually very good. Idlis were okay but dry. The dosas (very delayed) were okay, smaller, but still good flavor and texture. Only 2 types of dosas (plain and masala dosa with potato). -I actually liked the pongal. -Cons: -The chutneys were very watery and as soon as I observed that, I did not want to get them. -The other curries (bean poriyal, kadai mushroom, sambar) were alright but other than the sambar, they didn't entirely make sense in a south Indian breakfast. In my entire life as a South Indian Telugu person, I have only had sambar, chole, aloo (potato) curry, chutneys, etc. with my puri, dosa, idli, etc. but most of the other foods are not typically presented in an Indian brunch. -There was no upma. -Halwa was decent but is also not part of a classical Indian brunch. Quality for Price: -Definitely under-qualified and the price does not justify the food quality. Of note, this restaurant primarily responds to the good reviews but not to the honest poor reviews. If there is true care about the service of customers, there is more than no response or a minimal apology (like "we are sorry to hear about your experience'). If optimizing quality per dollar spent, please pick a different location. This is one of the first reviews if not the first that I have actually walked out of a restaurant and said "I do not understand how this place got 4.5 stars based on 900+ reviews."
