Udupi Cafe: Authentic South Indian Cuisine in Cary, NC

Been coming here for decades by now and it's easily one of my favorite restaurants in the area. Everything I've gotten here has been delicious- their dosas are always tasty, their sambar is the best, and I've had too many great curries here to name. In the past I've eaten here on different days with different parties and the wait staff is always so kind and helpful. Today they went above and beyond to accommodate an allergy in our takeout order- we are all exhausted and hungry and it meant a lot. Cannot overstate how much I love this place.

Went with my folks and the food was all excellent. Such unique and great flavors among the dishes we ordered. I wish I lived closer - I'd visit often. Thanks for a really excellent meal!

Good place to get dosa in Cary. They have a lot of options for dosa and other food items as well. The service was good and the ambiance is nice. We got Mysore masala dosa and regular masala dosa - both came with sambar and coconut chutney. The dosa and sambar were okay, it could be better. I wish they served peanut chutney as well.

I had a yearning for dosa, looked up places on Yelp, and found this one pretty close. I had lunch on a weekday a couple of days after the new years day and there just one or two customers. I chose a Andhra Special Dosai and it came out super fast, possibly because they weren't very busy but also had a lot of experience with dosas - they've got about a dozen different types of their menu. The dosa was great! It was extremely long so it might have been awkward to pick up. I didn't have a knife at first so I made do with my fork but eventually asked for a knife to help me devour it. The menu said it was was *paper thin* and it truly was! I've never had a dosa quite that thin before but it was very good. The server warned me that it was spicy - I've learned that spice tolerance varies but I have a pretty high tolerance. I was fine with the spice and probably could have gone a little hotter. I'll definitely come back again. They have a big menu and more than just dosas!

Udipi is a vegetarian restaurant and has some wonderful authentic South Indian food. All the appetizers rock and I was surprised how good the Papdi chaat was! The Thaali is pretty nice (both kinds) with fresh made sambar and dosa each time that we've gone. The medu vada are highly recommended along with nearly all their dosa offerings. Parking is ample here and the ambience is very casual. One thing to note is that they do not make the naan in-house so one time that I got it with my curry was this tough frozen-to-roasted naan but when I talked to the manager they informed me that the wait staff was supposed to inform everyone that Naan isn't house made. They quickly gave me chapatis for replacement and it worked out well.

Parking: It has its own parking lot. Food: large quantity and absolutly delicious. the chutney that came with it complimented it so well Service: was fast but it was not during a lunch rush Ambience: very basic scenery but plenty of places to sit around

Our family has enjoyed this restaurant for many years.As a vegan this was a place I could safely eat some of my favorite dishes Coconut chutney is one of my favorites and I love it with a spicy kick and they make it just right Sambar and Idili are my favorites however with chutney it's just not the same. My husband's favorite is butter chicken and Biryani. Which again had a great flavor profile We only visit Cary a couple times a year but this restaurant is a must stop for me

The vibe of this place feels like a little restaurant in India! It really takes you to the destination.
