Customer Reviews
I’ve visited Simply South multiple times, starting from their early opening days, and later I’ve tried both breakfast and lunch. The food quality is really good, with a few items that really stand out. The Thotakura Liver Fry Biryani is flavorful, the Thatte idlis are excellent, and the Benne dosas is a must-try. Food-wise alone, this place deserves 4–4.5 stars. However, the overall experience is held back by service and management practices. The staff including the upper management people consistently feels rushed, with a strong push to place orders quickly rather than allowing guests to settle in and understand the menu, especially noticeable when dining with first-time visitors to South Indian cuisine, and also for wrapping up. More importantly, this doesn’t feel like an individual s
We visited Simply South around 1:20 PM on Friday. The place was slightly crowded, which clearly spoke to its popularity. The service was prompt, and we ordered Mysore Masala Dosa, Vada, Sapota Shake, and Sitaphal Shake. Although the menu mentioned a preparation time of around 20 minutes, our food arrived in less than 10 minutes, which was impressive. There was also ample parking space, making the visit even more convenient. We were first served a variety of chutneys presented beautifully on a tray, followed by the Vada. One plate consisted of four vadas, served piping hot—crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy inside, accompanied by flavorful sambar. Next came the Mysore Masala Dosa. The dosa was as large as those typically served in Hyderabad restaurants—a perfectly shaped triangle, we
Tried Simply South for lunch this weekend finally. Food was very good, just as expected. We ordered the Benne Dosa, which was definitely the star of the show. We also got the Nellore Karam Masala Dosa, 3 in 1 idli, Parotto with veg kurma, and the filter coffee. Everything was delicious. The decor is very nice and restaurant is clean. Service could have been better. We had a reservation for 2:30pm but we were never warned about when the kitchen would close. We couldn't place an order for takeaway or dessert order. The waiters could be a little more personal-able but felt like they did not care.
I recently visited a South Indian restaurant, and the experience was absolutely wonderful. The food was amazing—we ordered chole bature, dosas, and thatte idlis, and every dish was packed with flavor. Each category of the menu offers around 20 options, giving plenty of variety to choose from. The atmosphere is beautiful, perfectly capturing the essence of South India, with a warm and welcoming vibe that enhances the dining experience. On top of that, the service was attentive and efficient, making the overall visit even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy authentic, delicious South Indian food in a charming setting with excellent service.
The first thing we asked was about Vada and they said they’re out of it. The restaurant opens at 11:30 and our reservation for 2 o’clock. They started with different chutney on the table. The chutney are not good We ordered the gunpowder Italy. It came on a silver platter with lots ghee. Service was very good. Our waitress tried very hard to accommodate our requests , when we asked management a question about our experience she was not kind to our waitress and blamed it on our waitress right in front of our table. Management needs some severe training on hospitality and communication to staff to flawlessly make this restaurant run. Ambiance is great Good is amazing and authentic short Indian. Will definitely go back there for good
