I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone seeking authentic South Indian food. My family and I will surely be back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Amma's Kitchen was quite candid. The food was satisfactory, especially the dosa and sambhar. I’ve definitely had better authentic South Indian meals elsewhere. Although, I can’t deny that it had some comforting flavors reminiscent of home. The service was a little off as they forgot our drink order, but I see potential. I might revisit this restaurant if I’m in the area again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying Amma's Kitchen based on all the positive reviews. However, I found the dosa to be a bit soggy and tasteless. The service was friendly but slower than expected. The atmosphere could use some improvement too—it felt a bit cramped. I might give it another shot since everyone else seems to love it. Maybe I just caught them on an off day. " (*Curated Review*)
