What people say, in short
Rishi's Newhaven recommendations include praise for its dosas and a diner's account of a particularly enjoyable meal. Another commenter says it is easy to reach by tram. One mixed account likes the dosa and biryani but dislikes the curries, which tasted as though they used a premade sauce; this is the diner's impression, not a verified preparation fact.
