Reviews for UlavacharU Tiffins in Santa Clara, CA
Yumm..Yumm...Yumm.... Tiffins are so yummy that we tasted almost all of the items on the menu. It felt like as if we are... eating Andhra style breakfast in India. 4 types of chutneys,sambar. Prices are reasonable not costlier. They as well sellindian sweets and snacks that are fresh and delicious as well. Travelling all the way from Seattle and eating over there madeus forgot the pain of drive.. ???? Staff are super firendly and ofocurse it is crowded on weekends. Definitely will NOTdisappoint your wait time. Read more
The first thing that comes to my mind when I think of this place is the crowd and the very delayed service. We had to wait for... an hour to get just these 2 items and waited another half hour for a takeaway order which we placed along with these 2 items.Not at all happy with service and the taste was also okayish not the greatest - I?ve definitely had better in the bay. There arebetter South Indian restaurants in the South Bay. I wouldn?t go here another time. Read more
We came on Sunday for lunch and there is a long line and waited 10 mins to get table. The staff are friendly and fast with... taking order and serving. The dosai was great and very spicy. The mango lassi is amazing LOL Read more
We wanted to have some Southern Indian food for breakfast today morning but didn't wanted to drive far off so choose... UlavacharuU Tiffins. We have tried many times before but always it was Togo so thought of having a sit down experience thistime. Since we were the first customer to the restaurant the whole restaurant was empty so we can choose any seating except thelast area they are been reserved for family ( I think they mean family with kids) . We ordered some breakfast items- 1) Idly -the No of idlies in this plate are 3 to accompany it comes with Sambhar & 3 different chutneys. It took some time almost 20-25mins to come since it was being freshly made as per the staff ( David) who informed us when ordering we didn't mind to wait. Myhusband got the chance to read his novel & I was enjoying some Bollywood songs . When the Idli came I didn't see any coconutchutney so asked David about it , he informed only with Dosa they give coconut chutney but he graciously agreed to give ussome. Idli was piping hot & soft enjoyed it with all chutneys & sambhar. Their chutneys are really good - spicy tomato & RedChilli chutney , Peanut chutney , Ginger & jaggery ( unrefined cane sugar) this is my favorite so far I have not seen in any BayArea restaurants & last but not the least coconut chutney it was made with fresh coconut (not descicated or coconut powder whichmany restaurants make it) we enjoyed every bite of this as well. 2) Idly Vada combo we choose 3 Idli & 1 Vada- This was alsovery good pipping hot Idli & Vada it was freshly made . Their Vada was freshly made & crunchy. We shared the 1 Vada. 3) GheeMasala Dosa - again very flavorful due to ghee ( clarified butter) can't go wrong with it !!! The main reason we went for sitdown is whenever we do Togo especially with Dosa the crispy Dosa turns soggy/ soft by the time we reach home . So we're reallylooking forward to have it. The Ghee Dosa when served we didn't see any Masala ( potato filling) whi Read more
Good food, no fluff, quick service at an affordable price. You just sit and someone will come to get your order and food shows... up in 5 minutes. (As expected, 5 items are ready and your dosa is just made order). They have bottled water at the tabletoo. Kudos to the management for running a nice spot for such foods. Hope to come back again.

Giving them 5 star rating for the food. They are overwhelmed during rush hour service, hope they add at least a person front... house. Podi idly, Kara masala dosa is best. Their chutneys are good as well. If they maintain quality, we?ll keep coming here. Read more
Delicious South Indian place. We tried ulavacharu dosa and podi onion masala dosa. Both were great options with the right amount... of spices. Dosa comes with sambhar and four different types of chutneys. Filter coffee was great too, thankfully sugar was onthe side and not added to the coffee. Prices were very reasonable. They have plenty of tables, there was no wait time on aSaturday evening. They also sell sweets, spices and snacks boxes at the counter. Read more
One of the busiest places , took some time for me to get a table and my ordered dishes. I tried ulavacharu masala dosa ,... punugulu and poori . I really liked the dosa , it was crisp and roasted perfectly, must try!! The size of the dosas and uthapamare damn good for the price you pay for it, and they are tasty and satisfying too. Must visit place if you are a fan of Indianbreakfast. Read more
