What people say, in short
Cafe Bengaluru is one of the most-recommended South Indian spots in Vadodara, with many naming it for dosas, thatte idli and general South Indian fare. A commenter from Karnataka says the dosas taste pretty close to home, and another calls it the most authentic South Indian option in the city. Commenters place it in Alkapuri, though some mention it around Ambedkar Circle and Race Course, so check the branch. Two diners warn that taste and quality have slipped in recent months.
