    Sri Balaji is truly a gem when it comes to South Indian cuisine. Options are many like Mysore Bonda, Chole and Puri, Idli, Poori Tiffin Combo etc etcs.... tried few of them, perfectly spiced, delicious and served quicker than we expected. It seems like a newer establishment, yet they’ve maintained impressive quality right from the start. Both my friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and excellent service made the experience even better. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Fantastic atmosphere and fresh, delicious food. Our group of students ordered 2–4 different dishes to share, including Dosas, Vada, Student Thali and Bhature — everything was excellent. The décor is impressive, with high ceilings and a clean, welcoming environment. This place is ideal for gatherings with friends or family, and for anyone seeking great vegetarian meals. I’m happy to recommend Sri Balaji and will definitely be visiting again soon. 🛎️🛎️🛎️🛎️🛎️

    Sri Balaji is a true gem when you think of South Indian dishes. The Mysore Bonda and Poori Tiffin Combo was packed with flavor, perfectly spiced and served quickly then we assumed. It's a new establishment I guess and they are keeping the quality high right from begining. Me and my friend had delicious meals. The cozy atmosphere, friendly staff and excellent service made the experience even better. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    We recently visited Sri Balaji for lunch and absolutely loved the experience! We ordered the thali, and the menu was beautifully designed with a great variety of dishes. Every single item had an authentic Andhra flavour and tasted so good just like homemade food. The staff were very warm and welcoming, which made the experience even better. It’s been a long time since we enjoyed authentic Indian food from restaurants in the area. Highly recommend Balaji Cafe if you’re craving good vegetarian food.

    Very nice experience. I went here with my son and husband. We have gone to Dosa hut many times but after searching for vegan restaurant this popped up. We took a drive down there and when we walked in the place was empty with the woman who worked there in the front. We sat down and she said to place order we scan the code on the table. I personally am old fashioned and I would have liked better regular menus to be on the table because my husband had some issues bringing up the menu on the phone. And I couldn't help but think about people who do not have a phone or older people who struggle with technology or just someone who is not inclined to use their phone or a code. Ultimately we ordered and soon the food came out I loved it. I loved it all. We ordered two uttapam and both were delicious. The peanut sauce was my favorite by far even though you get 3 different sauces the peanut sauce stole the show and I wish I could buy a container to take home and maybe I will ask next time. We wanted pani puri but they said it wasn't available which was a bummer but we also ordered the gobi 65 which was dried fried Gobi and that too was yummy! I loved all of it and everything tasted very fresh. The woman was kind and apologized for not having pani puri available and it made me happy to see her serious nature fade and a smile appear because she has a pretty smile. We will continue to come back because of how fresh the food is. From a side note after reading reviews I can't help but feel theres a slight competition between Dosa Hut and here based on some reviews. In God's eye and heart there's no room for competition but acceptance of how great it is to have two different vegetarian restaurants. Great for vegans like myself who really appreciate vegan, vegetarian restaurants. I am very grateful that this place is open and me and my family have a nice place to come to. I'm sorry I don't have pictures to post but next time I will take some pictures and post them. I highly recommend supporting this new business. I highly recommend if you are vegan and highly recommend if you love peanut sauce and fresh food. I want to go in the evening as we went before 3. Hopefully it won't be crazy. To be side by side with my husband to share fresh food and enjoy moments that is what it is about and this place has helped to create a sparkle of a happy moment for my family. Looking forward to returning next week. Grateful for sure!
