We had heard so many good things about Guru Lukshmi and finally got a chance to drop by for Indian breakfast this past weekend. We made reservations, considering the popularity of this place!
The restaurant itself has a fun black decor and the service staff is excellent! Now, coming to the food! We ordered
1) idly Medhu vada combo - both the idly and vada were very fresh and well prepared.
2) Poori Kurma - the poories (deep fried bread) were a tad oily but tasted great. Kurma (a mixed vegetable dish) was well prepared.
3) Chettinad Cheese Dosa - the dosa itself was great but we wish we hadn't ordered the Chettinad style. The Chettinad style was just the same regular dosa with a ton of chilli powder in it. This overpowered the taste of everything else - the dosa itself and the potato in it. Keep it simple and just order the masala dosa.
4) Filter Coffee - this didn't match up to my expectation of filter coffee and can be avoided.
Overall, it was a great dining experience and we will return soon!
