We went to udupi palace with friends today, craving good Indian food.
Ambience- 2/5. The place was pretty weird. It din't have a restaurant feel. It was like as if tables were just arranged in a basement hall.
Service - 4/5. Purely because the service was quick.
Food - 3/5. Coming to the main part! We ordered chaat papdi, dahi poori and sambar vada for starters. The chaats were just okay, nothing too special; about them. Then we had channa bhatura, mysore masala dosa and idli. Channa bhatura was really good esp the channa, very flavorful and tasty. The sambhar was not so good, so the sambar vada, dosa, idli was not all that good.
Finally we had masala tea and coffee. Cardamom was very overpowering in the tea that the flavor of tea itself was masked. Coffee was good.
Overall, its probably a good place for Indian food but my South Indian palate was not satisfied!!!
