The Nilgiris

It has a good south indian buffet. Went for lunch and enjoyed all the items in buffet there. Service was ok. Its the food which i liked so 4 stars

Good food, but cooled fast. Should play some music, felt like a cafeteria. Beautiful paintings contrast the plain tables and walls. Sambar portion REALLY SMALL, not happy with extra charge of asked for more. staff seemed to be in a rush and dropped dishes a few times.

We went for a lunch buffet. Food was good. Poori, Briyani rasam were delicious! Filter coffee was good… Service was good!!! Will go back for buffet again!

Food was delicious
Authentic South Indian resto
We arrived at 6.00pm and got amazing service
Way better than Guru Lakshmi
Much cheaper than other South Indian resto

The food and variety are great for the price. The only problem is the service. Its really bad and they make you feel really uncomfortable..

We went here to celebrate the anniversary of my BF’s parents.
The food was very tasty but sadly the service was seriously lacking.
My bf’s family made a couple of small requests (dosa fillings on the side) which were all but ignored. By the time everyone’s meals had arrived, people were just too hungry to send anything back.
If you don’t mind rude/​uninterested slow service with tasty food, check this place out.

ORDER: Masala Dosa, Sweet Lassi (don’t get it), mango shake
Pros:
— Huge selection of food; from my understanding, they have a buffet (I believe at lunch time), however I’ve always stopped by for dinner, never lunch
— Offers interesting novelty foods– masala dosas are definitely different from the typical perception of «Indian cuisine»
— DISCLAIMER: When the menu reads «SPICY», trust me when I say… IT IS REALLY SPICY. I’ve ordered dishes here that didn’t even state (on the menu) that they were spicy, but they were. Their dishes make my tongue cry sometimes…
Cons:
— Restaurants that offer meat dishes typically offer vegetarian options… why is it not the same vice versa? The Nilgiris is an all vegetarian restaurant
— Service has gotten worse over the past year (I’m a regular). Their waiters used to be girls who were more attentive to customer needs.
— This isn’t necessarily a con– but just keep in mind that you’re supposed to go up to the register when it comes time to pay (they don’t bring the bill to you).
They’ve started to cheap out. I used to receive potato salad with any/​every meal that I ordered here and they’ve taken that away. Also, the last time I ordered masala dosa, they cut my meal up into rectangles… WHY?! The waiters also tend to listen to my needs/​orders and don’t come back at all. If that’s the case, I’d rather settle for typical indian cuisine where my needs as a customer are met. NO SIR, I DON’T WANT SOME MORE.
