What our guests are saying
Great food, great service. Ernald was an awesome host! He made sure to check on us every few minutes. My husband and I tried their buffet on Sunday. They had real cute tiny medhu vadas and puris too that way you can keep your stomach to try everything. The host also offered dosa as part of Buffet.

They have delicious vegetarian and gluten free options. Their use of paneer, jackfruit, lentils and vegetables is so creative! The dosas are the best I've had. Five stars isn't enough!

We love Udipi Cafe, the food and atmosphere just takes you back to the India. That warmth, and pleasant feeling as if you are at your home with your family and enjoying the delicious food. The menu provides the variety of food options, also the weekend buffet gives you an option where you can try several different dishes at fair price. One of the best Pure Veg restaurants in Houston, definitely recommend.
