About this business
With a menu full of flavorful dishes, all served without a pinch of pretension, Dosa has established itself as one of the top choices for those seeking a bite to eat in the Mission District. The menu specializes in South Indian dishes, especially in the restaurant's namesake dish, the dosa. In addition to the fresh samplings on the plate, this restaurant is also famed for its excellent wine menu, and the pairings that serve to bring out the best of both food and drink. Even with so many other restaurants in the area, DOSA is... read more

Great Food! – Outside the 1.5 hour wait for a Sat night, the food was terrific! The host that evening (who usually isn't the host) bought us a round of free drinks for waiting so patiently for a table. I've never had Southern Indian food before, let alone a Dosa - which turns out to be a nicely flavored crepe with herbs and spices meant to be shared and dipped in different sauces. My favorites for the evening were the firey broth, shrimp curry and any dosa! Next time, we're bringing a group of 5 of more to make a reservation... read more
Terrible service – I have personally recommended DOSA to a lot of my friends in the past. But I think with their increasing popularity, these ppl are becoming Haughty. They have forgotten that serving the customer is of utmost importance. They actually have the cheek to be rude and insulting to customers. I am sure their success would not be so if they continue this attitude and behaviour towards customers. Their food might be good, but it is of no use if they cannot be basic curteous to their customers. If you want to be in... read more
A happy marriage of hipness and authenticity – Hats off to Dosa for its South Indian cuisine! It's great to take friends to an Indian restaurant that doesn't serve the usual creamy, oily, shapeless glop that passes for Indian food. I liked the ambience and the bartenders are friendly. It's nice not to be rushed to a table...the bar's a great place to have a beer and the wait isn't too long anyway. I'd highly recommend the vada-sambar as an appetiser. Try the masala dosa with the chutneys and the sambar...it's very authentic,... read more
Really good – very good food. the prawns were tremendous. i wish there had been a bit more of the non traditional style dosa's on the menu. Very kid friendly and enjoyable.
south indian at its best! – happily and gratefully, i'm here to report that i've found a new place that i will continue to frequent...it's called DOSA. this south indian restaurant has it all. fantastic food and a warm and inviting vibe...an incredible newcomer. when it comes to indulging in the flavors and essence of their mission - which is all about food - you can't/won't be disappointed. the soups are delicious. the chennai chicken and cochin calamari apps are awesome. as for mainstays, the chatini dosa, tamil lamb curry... read more
Perfect blend for all tastes – Dosa is the perfect place to go if your party has people of varying tastes, as well as vegetarians and meat-eaters. I highly recommend any of the dosa plates, and loved the Medu Vada and the Dahi Vada. If you are non-vegetarian and up to eating something with a little kick to it, try the Tamil Lamb Curry or the Pepper Chicken. Both are delicious! And the comfort of having cheap parking just around the corner is definitely an added bonus.
FANTASTIC !!! – This would be a place which isn't stuck in the 70's (ambience) -- would be a place where I would go to eat if I was in India too. Food - FANTASTIC - actually AUTHENTIC and really really good --- starters / entree and desert --- TRY EVERYTHING
Delicious food and hip atmosphere! – Dosa immediately stands out from other Indian restaurants because it actually has a nice atmosphere (no cafeteria here!). Minimalist with Indian touches, a great wine bar, and fun music. Waiting at the bar for a table is part of the fun. My husband and I found the masala dosa and idlis to be very authentic. Also the donut shaped savoury vadas are amazing! Channa batura is aromatic and flavorful, my favorite. The Tamil lamb curry is a rich and complex choice for those who need their meat. ... read more
Pathertic south indian food – This place is sad-the food was very bland and NOT authentic at all (Cheddar cheese in a dosa? I don't think so.) The service was slow and unattentive. I don't know why this place is rated so highly rated. I cannot recommend this place at all-it was way too expensive for what you get.
