Dosa Shack

Located in a food trailer parking lot, this place has good dosas. I got the classic while my wife got the original. The classic is decent but the original is sooo good. That curry leaf butter and gunpowder takes the flavor another level. The dosa was good but we found it to be a little thin and crumbly. It's fine but would've preferred it hold up a little bit better. It's hard finding South Indian food in this area of Austin so this is the place. I wish they served chai.

In a world of savory and delicious bites, expand your horizon with Dosa Shack's Indian cuisine. The heart of Dosa Shack centers around dosas but their menu is so much more! What has stood out to me every time is their consistency of flavors and presentation. I enjoy and appreciate that their menu has a wide range of spice for your personal palette. What really makes my inner kid smile are their doffles. They are the perfect balance of savory and sweet and the use of rose in their rose caramel sauce and the cheese filling (somewhat similar to a brioche or crepe filling) is so smart.The owners are super sweet here and everything is set to be captured for social media. Enjoy the few tables they have right next to the food truck! It's perfect for a cute and casual date or if you and a few friends want to expand your palette. You can't miss it with the pink and green vibes!

Dosa shack was on my list to try for some time. I must say I was not disappointed. We tried paneer dosa, plain dosa, paneer tikka and panipuri. Everything was very tasty. Dosas were crispy and chutneys were yum. But you have to love spicy food if you wanna try this place. They chutneys were spicy but very tasty. I definitely recommend.

I was craving paneer, so when I saw pictures of the paneer skewers and the paneer spinach melt sandwich, I just needed to try them. We ordered the Paneer Tikka, Vada Pav, Fried Idli, and the Paneer Spinach Melt.Warning: The Paneer Tikka is spicy due to the jalapeños, but it's really yummy with the sauce! I would recommend it for those who enjoy spice.The Paneer Spinach Melt was indescribably delicious. It's obviously not the healthiest in terms of fat content, but the flavors were wonderful. The sandwich had a great cheese pull, and the chutney added the perfect touch to this buttery melt. This is one of my favorites now! The fried idlis are a MUST! I've had these and my family makes them, but the seasoning on the idlis with the flavor of the dipping sauce is simply perfection.Their mango lassi was not overly sweet and just right. Next time, I want to try the Doffles! I've never had those.The food was yummy, but did take a while to come out. This food truck is inside a food truck park, so there was some seating and one fan.

Been here a few times, and food has been great every time. Paneer and the spinach dosa is what I usually get. Took one star down since the wait can sometimes take 20-30 mins. Even with only 2-3 people in before you.

I got the Veggie Uttapam and was disappointed that it was 90% onion and a tiny bit of raw broccoli. It wasn't cooked all the way so the broccoli was still raw. :( It came with a small lentil soup that was so hot that it worries me about the plastic chemicals melting into the soup. The Veggie Uttapam was too spicy for me and too dry - the overload of lentil powder did not help. Mango lassi was fine, nothing special. There are bathrooms 2 down from the Sushi truck - ramp leads to a white door labeled Restrooms. There are picnic tables around to sit down at.

(This review is for their Live Dosa Catering.)We had a large family reunion in Austin Texas last weekend, total of 30 people including kids. We rented a house just outside of Austin and we catered the lunches/dinners. We penciled in Indian food for one of our dinners and I thought it would be cool to do live dosa catering at the rental property. Dosa Shack was 100% the answer!! Communication with Manoj was easy, as he was super friendly and patient.From the catering menu, we were able to choose 4 different types of dosas to customize our menu for the night. This included 2 different types of chutneys and sambhar. We also ordered a tray of paneer tikka and bombay grilled sandwiches from their appetizer menu. They were on time and set up was straightforward. They did a fantastic job and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the meal, especially the parents!I would hire them again! Thank you!

Dosa shack is a vegetarian South Indian food truck taking their grandma's dosa recipe and inventing creative specials! (Dosa's are savory crepes)We loved the classic dosa (potato, onion, curry leaf) and peppy paneer dosa (paneer, pickled onion, herb yogurt). The dosa itself was perfection, fresh & crispy, and both fillings were so flavorful! My favorite is the peppy paneer :)The sauces that accompany the dosas are a fantastic complement. I love the spin on the traditional dipping sauces and sambal. The red sauce (a ginger chutney) has a little kick which I loved!We also tried this month's January specials, both are uttapams (a fluffy, savory pancake). The uttapam sandwich is stuffed with a pav bhaji-like potato patty. I found the sandwich quite heavy but tasty!My favorite was the crispy avocado uttapam. This is eaten like a taco and stuffed with fried avocado and a delicious slaw. Have to try!Last but not least, the mango lassi. This is a thick drink made with yogurt and mango, slightly sweet and very refreshing. A great choice to accompany your meal! This is definitely a spot I'd come back to. Delicious dosas and specials every month! Hope they keep the crispy avocado uttapam on the permanent menu though :)

Dosa Shack's Classic Dosa is hands down the best post-work delivery I've had recently in Austin. The potatoes inside were perfectly fluffy, and while the dosa wasn't crispy by the time I got to it, it was still soft and flavorful and filled to the brim with this spiced potato deliciousness. The three sauces really elevated it--a sweet tomato-based one, fresh coriander chutney, and a spicy orange sauce that added a nice kick (sorry I'm not the most cultured). Overall, it's a solid combo, and I am very glad I tried this place. Straight fire!

Dosa with a twist? Yes, a unique South Indian-Texan collab food. When my Austin trip was finalized, I did some research about the best places to eat near the place I stayed. Dosa Shack popped up, noticed it due to the name, of course. I ignored it since it's a food truck. But eventually I ended up experiencing their food. It's a South Indian food truck - but the food is given a unique Texas twist. Their recipes are South Indian rooted, but the ingredients & preparation are altered to invent these new dishes. They have verity of dosas served with different chutneys, Sandwiches, Street bites aka Chaats, Drinks and Desserts. One of their Dosa options is the Original dosa, but it has parmesan in it. Rest of them were modified. We decided to try the Devil Veggie and the Jack of All. Also ordered the Samosa Nachos from the Street food section. They prepare the food once the order is placed. It took around 15 minutes for the food to come out. The dosas were served with 2 different chutneys and Lentil soup. Tomato chutney is their Mild option and the Ginger chutney is the Hot one. Cherry tomato Lentil soup is medium spicy. Ginger chutney - ridiculously good. Goes well with the dosa and add tons of flavor to it.The Devil Veggie - stuffed with vegetables sautéed with schezwan sauce. It had big flavor and spiciness by default. With chutneys, a real deal. The Jack of all constructed with the tropical fruit - Jack Fruit. It's the tender jack fruit used for this along with other spices and curry leaves. The dosa is stuffed with that Masala and it's fabulous! It gave me nostalgia about my homeland! Worth every penny for it! The Samosa nachos is another twist added to the famous Indian street food. It's Jalapeño cheese samosas served with herb yogurt and salsas! Loved it! Big kudos to the brain behind this concept. But to pull this off doing all the justice to the concept? Deserves a big applause! Loved the concept, Loved the food! I hope they will add more trucks so that people get to enjoy their amazing food! Service was top! Can I give SIX STARs? Highly recommended!
