What people say, in short
Annapurna Bhavan draws South Indian recommendations, especially for dosa. One commenter names the onion chili rava masala dosa as a favorite, and another enjoys regular visits. A separate visitor liked a dosa and sizzler but not the tomato chutney. One dissenting diner strongly dislikes both the cooking and service, finding the dosa poorly made and the food unnecessarily spicy.

All-vegetarian spot with a Jain menu that avoids garlic; likely able to reduce oil and spice.
