" Fantastic cooking at Shivas Dosa! I enjoyed the dishes full of traditional spices and authentic tastes! The interior was warm and cozy, a perfect spot for gatherings. The staff were attentive, which made my experience even better. I want to try every dosa on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a very average experience at Shivas. The dosas were thin but slightly burnt, which was quite disappointing. While the atmosphere was cozy, I expected more from the service and quality of food based on previous visits. Might give it another shot but not any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Chicken 65 was an absolute delight! I ordered a few other dishes, and while some were not up to par, I enjoyed the overall experience. The ambiance was inviting. I would suggest visiting during off-peak hours for a better service experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Shivas Dosa last week and was initially impressed by the decor, which felt very traditional. The food was decent but lacked the punch I was hoping for. The dosas were reasonably good, but the sambhar wasn’t flavorful enough. Service was friendly but a bit slow, which made our experience less enjoyable. Overall, it was okay but not exceptional. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food is consistently amazing at Shivas! I am particularly fond of their Vegetable Biryani — aromatic and flavorful! The restaurant can get quite busy during peak times, and while the service is usually good, it can be a bit slower on a packed night. But the quality of the dishes makes it all worthwhile! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first meal at a South Indian restaurant and it did not disappoint! The welcoming atmosphere set the tone for a wonderful night. I tried the Non-Vegetarian Thali and it was loaded with various flavorful dishes. Each component was cooked to perfection. The dessert, bread halwa, was divine! The service was exemplary throughout our dining experience. I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been coming to Shivas Dosa for years, and it never fails to impress! The flavors are consistently authentic. Last time I tried their special thali, and it was great to sample a variety of dishes. The vibe is always energetic and friendly. Highly recommend for anyone seeking genuine South Indian food!
