Guru Lukshmi

This review is for Udupi resturant in Mississauga. Its good for south indian buffet. Have eaten there twice and have enjoyed the cholay puri(spicy and yum), yogurt rice, rasam, chatnis, vegetable and rava kesari.
The owner was good about giving a prewarning for the closing buffet time and giving the customers some extra time to finish eating but their food refills are very slow. Many times when the items finish they don't refill for about half an hour and soon thereafter the buffet closing time approaches.

Sounds like inside comments with all the excuses!

we too visit gurulukshmi and we asked reg. the sambar and they said they have seen customers waist so much food that they were compiled to serve smaller containers..and always ready to refill..
Reg. 10% common adding a small tip does not hurt these waiter boys count on these small tips Atlast they are moving to derry and maclaughan to a bigger space and hope they will be spared by all these criticize about space..poor guys no one really appreciates such good food

i love this place, my husband and i love their dosas esp because the owners themselves cook, you cant find that happening too often. Anyway the shocker is that MY KIDS LOVE IT TOO!!... what a relief. I would def recommend this place to anyone.

and for those who complain about 10% service charge, stop being such kanjus and pay up, those guys work so hard and deserve it.

i love gurulukshmi!!!

The best dosa place in the GTA area for sure. The service is good and my family enjoyed the food. They charge a 10% service charge but that's ok as the restro is always busy and the staff deserves a tip. The owner cooks food by himself and its totally family based business. Feels like home I can say.

I agree they take forcible tip and call it service charge (10%). Although food is good but I don't agree with service charge thing. Would not go there again.

Visited Gurulukshmi the authentic Dosa maker. The seating is attrocious, the service is miserable and after paying so much money their customer service is horrendous. The place is so small and so it always looks crowded. The service is a perpetual circus toms order going to Dick and Harry instead of Tom hahah.Maybe the owner should learn to juggle better with his dosas

People fail to understand the nature of this rest. I was a regular at Dosa Corner (thier old location) and I still am at thier new location (Erin Mills Pkwy and Eglington - Gurulukshmi). The food has always been top notch, they moved from the food court since thier customers wanted to dine in. Yes, the new place is quite small but the place is just beautiful. The owners cook the food which is basically Kumar his wife Thana and his two daughters. They do not let anyone else prepare the food and they make everything from scrath. You cannot have quality home cooked food for cheap and at a fast food pace.

I usually visit them on weekdays, they also advice thier customers to do the same to avoid feeling

horribale servise ,no proper place to seat ,If you ask for second time anything take very long to serve,money wise food quentity and quality is poor

I visited with my family. I was disgusted when I paid my bill the owner did not return my change and said it was his tip. He has forcibly taken this tip. I dont appreciate such nonsense. The restaurant is always full because there are hardly many seats to sit.The sound echoes, the seats are so crammed I felt claustrophobhic.

very very very good.. Really tasty .. better then any other dosa place in toronto or mississauga.

dosa corner has Amazing food and my family is waiting for it to re open.

we came to know about this dosa corner through our friends..they were right the taste is really authentic..they take time to explain each and every dosa as they dosa making is from their own family secret..we had mysore bhaji/corriender/thokku dosas and it was so tasty..we promise to go there again but one small draw back it is in a food court..

So when we mentioned our concern they came with the good news that they are moving to a new location which will be a 50 seat restaurant at erin centre blvd..(erin mills & eglington) in march 2008..we must encourage this type of people as they work as a team and most of all the whole family works..

this dosa place is on of the best or i can say the best place in toronto.They appeared in the toroto star which made me go there..All the dosas are ethinic south indian menu ..The good news is they are going to open a restaurant at Erin centre (Erinmill (pkwy?Eglington)very soon

Some dosa places are not run by Indians the are mostly run by Sri Lankans who have no idea about S Indian food...so be aware..they just want business as we like Dosas..

One morning i decided to have parathas and i was told that they made those at the spot. After i took them home, i reallized that they were leftovers from last night and they were the exact same thing you can purchase at any indian store in packages. When i called them to tell them of my experience, i was rudely told not to purchase any food from their restaurant. Bad Customer Service.

if you are looking for authentic south indian dosas this is the place..They have so many types of dosas these are not available in any other restaurants..
They are planning to open a new restaurant with sittings very soon
