Very clean and this place has a lot of gluten free options if not the most in little india!

Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Bad food, bad customer service, bad atmosphere. Couldn’t even complete a whole dosa because of bad potato filling inside and servers were utterly rude with no manners.

This restaurant deserves 5+ stars. I been going to this store since a child with my family, and it is the best place for good quality vegetarian food. Every time I come here I always buy chana masala and chapathi. It is absolutely a delicious curry that makes me want to go back all the time. Parking is hard to find at times, but otherwise, I always have a good experience at Udupi.

Not worth the hype! Okay for south Indian food. Never ever try non-south indian food. I ordered a pani-puri and I swear I have never ate such a pathetic pani-puri.
06 January 2022 13:14
Very much the meal we had in mind when we visited this place to satisfy a craving for food from our home in India.authentic flavours, freshly prepared with plenty of space around us meant we were very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our meal!

Tried the ghee paper dosa. It was not hot when I received it even though I live just 1 km away from this restaurant. Dosa and Sambhar were not bad (Average. Nothing special about them) Chutney had a horrible taste. Not at all authentic when compared to similar restaurants in India

Seriously love this place. Their sambar is a special treat. It's all vegetarian food, and they have lots of gluten free, vegan, and Jain options.

I visited this place recently and when we went the place was very clean and quiet, We ordered Poori Bhaji, Ghee Paper Masala Dosa and Onion & Hot Chilli Uthapam. Service was very quick and the food was good. The only thing I would say is that I did not like their Sambhar as it tasted a bit sweet like Gujarati Daal.
28 December 2021 12:26
Only thing good was there is service. But I will give food -5 rating. They gave us stale vada any one can tell that smell very bad. I think they should try different restaurants for South Indian food. Then see what they are serving. People gave them 5 star may they don’t know what they are eating

Best South Indian vegetarian food in the neighbourhood. I usually order a masala dosa which is accompanied with sambar and chutney. Must try for those who crave delicious healthy vegetarian food.
17 December 2021 12:20
One of my favorite food palace, variety of South and North Indian recipes. Paper masala Dosa and Podi idli is my choice of taste.
10 December 2021 23:50
Loved it there. All vegetarian food and fast service. Portions and price is very respectable. I recommend this place to any one who is in doubt to visit or not.
08 December 2021 23:09
We drove 50kms to taste the authentic south Indian Bisibele bath, but a big disappointment. It smells looks like prepared with stale leftover stuff.

Had a wonderful time here. The place has an authentic Indian ambience. The food was great too. We tried the pav bhaji dosa which easily was one of our favorites. If you are a fan of spicy food and love pav bhaji, then it's a must try. Apart from that the masala and mysore dosa were good too. However the spring dosa was the most disappointing. Manchurian Idli deserves 5 star too.

The servers were really helpful and accommodating. It's a must try if you are looking for good south indian food.

Super yummm food…. Love it ……. South food always yummy…. Less oily…… spicy …loved it special Dosa and veg cutlets…. Love ️ them
14 November 2021 23:08
Horrible experience

- Found hair in sambar the biggest mistake any restaurant could commit
- on top of it no apology just replied "okay you can go "
- p.s this is not udupi restaurant. This is not udupi flavours feels like.they are making a fool of you.

-No salt in the potato inside dosa all bland flavour profile
- paneer dosa no salt again and countered with we use less salt like seriously.

I liked it very much and true to its name, you’ll get to eat authentic udupi style vegetarian food. Love their sugarless tea and dosa varieties. Appreciate your efforts in keeping steel cutlery and ceramic tea cups. Don’t even think about getting cheap plastic cutlery like others.
17 October 2021 19:12
We tried the south Indian Thali and Idly, both were amazing. I loved the Thali, authentic and non greasy. I loved the desserts with the Thali too.
12 October 2021 15:02
The taste of Dosa reminds me of India. The taste of Masala dosa was really Good. Must recommend this place.
11 October 2021 20:11
Tried south Indian snacks. Nothing great. Sambhar was not the udupi sambhar. Very disappointed.
04 October 2021 6:54
Service was great but the food quality had changed drastically. We ordered pani Puri, dahi vada, Mysore masala dosa, puri baji and chapathi dhaal. Pani Puri was disappointing as it was not fresh, there were only potatoes inside the puris. All the other items that we got were just average, taste wise. Quality of food from here used to be much better.
21 September 2021 8:50
Very clean and reasonably priced. The decor is dated, but I don't care because it is obvious the effort is expended in the food. My favorite dosa place in all the world. Excellent selection of vegetarian food. I look forward to going back soon.

Whenever at Gerrard, Indian town can’t skip or miss eating at Udupi’s.
As usual ordered the Masala Dosa and a Salty Lassi. The potatoes inside the Dosa were delicious however found the Dosa missing the fermentation taste, soft and not as crispy! Voiced my concern and bingo they brought me a perfect crispy dosa!
The Lassi was ok, nothing special but it was a good drink for a hot day!
My hubby ordered the Spicy Vegetable Curry (#71 on menu) with a Tandoori Naan. It was ever delicious, so good that my husband ordered a 2nd to bring home for dinner!
Ended it with a strong cup of chai, made perfectly, relaxing and refreshing.
What we appreciated most was that the Head Chef came over to apologize for the delay in my hubby’s order. All other staff were very friendly, nor did they mind the comment on Masala Dosa (the xtra crispy dosa was on the house)
A great memorable Saturday, Gerrad brings back beautiful memories of home,
India

Do yourself a favor and eat across the street in another restaurant. The food is is greasy and gross. The puri is thicker than naan. Dosa was full of water, grosss! The kachori was days old. Needless to say never going there again. We will rather eat cat food instead of this.
15 September 2021 10:18
Best Dosa I have had. One of the best Indian restaurants in Toronto. Prompt service and great prices.

Went today to Udupi Palace with my kid for the first time and our experience was nice. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Will come here again and again.
12 August 2021 14:11
The phav bhaji and spiced potato dosas were amazing. The Chana bhutara and paneer tikka tasted delicious too. Can't wait to try other dishes in the future!
06 July 2021 21:15
I love their samosa chats - fresh warm crispy, with well seasoned Chana masala topped with tangy tamarind, yoghurt and green chutney and sev
30 June 2021 7:16
The food and service were above my expectations. We surely enjoyed the ambience of this spot. Wonderful restaurant to take my family out for dinner.
19 June 2021 4:42
The chola batura is really good and I enjoyed the idli and wada. Hoping they work more on their chutney, it is really expensive to make fresh coconut chutney but they should try to add tomato chutney instead
10 February 2021 21:54
We love going out. Yesterday we went to this magnificent place which friends recommended to us. We enjoyed a beautiful evening there with fine dishes and a courteous crew and a talented cook. We added this venue in our list and we shall surely return very soon. We warmly recommend.
01 February 2021 16:14
One of my favorite spots to eat.excellent location, well kept, and good customer service. Very good job!
19 December 2020 1:14
I like this restaurant! They offer awesome dishes, their menu is nice, The chef in that place is well trained, I enjoy very much tasting all their food. The food is consistently good, the attitude towards the customers is good. I visit often this restaurant and I was never unsatisfied. I recommend it to all.
24 February 2019 3:28
It’s cheap for a reason but there are nice touches like raw onion and lemon. The vegan choice is huge and many items can be made gluten free.

The dosa was thick and chewy instead of paper thin. The saag aloo seemed old and with an undesirable flavour. The Dahl was ok. The sambar was good for dipping.

I got 5 dishes delivered for under $40 but none of it was very satisfying unfortunately. 3 stars for the fresh onion and lemon.
17 February 2019 11:06
This place probably serves the best South Indian food I’ve had so far. Must try their paneer dosa and mysore masala dosa. Not only this, the appetizers are also really good specially pani puri. I’m coming again!
11 February 2019 22:38
One star coz of service.there will be five waiters looking at you entering but probably not even one would approach you.so disorganised when the crowd gets even medium.the cashier man will come and ask you wat u want without even bothering to give you menu card.shows they take customers for granted or business is too much and I don't care.
When you order thali meal order poori instead of chapati coz their poori is nice and roti sucks.
Something also is seriously wrong with their idles. I dono what.
Meal comes with very little rice.be prepared for extra rice if you are hungry.taste of gravy with, eat is great.
10 February 2019 4:31
The washrooms are not clean, the seating is awful, the food compared to other South Indian restaurants is terrible. They are charging a lot of money for sub par food!
30 January 2019 13:39
We had a really unpleasant experience at this place. The meal I had was really cold and not at all tasty. The customer service is also abysmal!
17 January 2019 16:30
Nice spot to have dosa on Gerard (little india). The chaat papri and idli manchurian we’re out of this world. The spring dosa was amazing, however the only issue is don’t order their rava onion dosa, as it wasn’t really good.it felt like rubber meeting flour.
04 January 2019 12:56
Don’t know whether it was a rush hour or a normal thing, but the food was okay, service was very slow.
31 December 2018 5:14
Food is average and service is poor. Only thing going for it is that the prices are reasonable and you'll always find seating as it's empty most of the time!
30 December 2018 2:10
The masala dosa is solid. The vadas could be better. Overall, a solid pick for vegetarian Indian food.
18 December 2018 14:01
Authentic South Indian vegetarian food. Vegan & gluten free dishes are available. This is a place to go to for the prototypical South Indian dishes such as dosas (in a dozen varieties) and uthappam. Modestly priced. The ambiance is like that in a cafeteria although all dishes are served at your table.
18 December 2018 4:10
Their Samber is basically water. The masala dosa have basically boiled mashed potatoes. We were regularly picking up food to go here now very disppointed.
08 December 2018 17:39
My girlfriend and I ordered out from this place. It took them an hour an a half to deliver the food on a weekday afternoon. They didn't remember to bring us one of the items that we had ordered. The items that they did bring were very small portions considering each dish was over $10 each. The taste disappointing as well. We didn't bother calling them back about our missing item because of the poor quality of the food they did bring. And we obviously didn't want to wait another hour and a half for one item. Ultimately it was a waste of $50 dollars, and we won't be giving them our business again. Luckily there are a lot of good businesses all around this neighbourhood.
06 December 2018 10:15
Yes it’s definitely the best place for South Indian food in TORONTO, that is DOSA. I would still prefer GURU LAKSHMI over this but only if I want to travel that far (I live In downtown so).

The owner and staff are really friendly and polite. I had one of the best time here where food was served pretty quick. If you want to try INDIAN TEA, this place serves a nice one.

You must try the PANEER CHILLI, which is my escape. Place is clean and can handle large group of people. There is unexpectedly a small place for children to play and have fun.

MUST TRY IF YOU AT GERRARD STREET.
26 October 2018 14:21
The food was good! However was not very happy with the service. They should know to treat customers a bit more politely! Got a rude response on asking if a certain item was available.
24 October 2018 6:24
Loved the meal. No excuses when I ordered a dosa that was spicy. Good balance of hot spicy and flavor spices.
18 October 2018 4:42
Not best place to eat vegetarian food in Toronto. Service is very poor when busy long wait times. Food taste is average. I would prefer to go somewhere else for the price they charge
08 October 2018 1:58
Thank you Hubert & Udupi Team for coming for Talsania Family House Warming Function, Your arrangement & your Tasty Food.
Good Food, Affordable price and Excellent Catering service.
01 October 2018 23:59
A mediocre South Indian Restaurant at the most. Plus I think its a bit overpriced for the quality of food and customer service they offer.
01 October 2018 9:53
This place has been around forever and I love their food and service. It is an unassuming basement restaurant in Gerrard India Bazaar serving up vegetarian/vegan and mostly gluten free food from South India, more specifically from Udipi. While their food in general is great, Channa Bhatura is our personal favourite, my 4-year-old loves it and I highly recommend you try it! They also offer catering and their food has never disappointed us.
30 September 2018 7:23
Great food! We had the appetizer platter, samosas, channa masala and paneer mahkni. Really enjoyed the tamarind dipping sauce, the mint chutney was pleasantly spicy, wasn't a fan of the curdled yogurt dip and the daal was great. The portions we're hefty and the price point was spot on! We had a great time and will definitely visit again!
22 September 2018 8:54
Excellent food. In fact, I would say this is the best Indian restaurant in Toronto: pure vegetarian and no Halal!:)

Highly recommended.
11 September 2018 5:23
Nice restaurant. Very economical and tasty. Most of the dishes are priced Right. Good selection from North and South Indian delicacies. Owner is also very friendly. Will certainly recommend and probably go again.
