MTR - Mavalli Tiffin Rooms

Went with a friend for the first time, after id been witnessing all the hype. We reached at 11 to avoid long waiting time. Got a place to sit in the first set of people who they let in. Their idli and Vada was good! I'm not sure if I liked their thick Bangalore style dosa - the one I ordered had lot of ghee. Very heavy for me.They didn't have filter coffee that day - a little disappointing. Had their chikoo shake and buttermilk- nice options.We took their gadbad ice cream to go. It's a fun mix of nuts, 3-4 different ice creams and some jellies and stuff. Great to share between 2-4 ppl. It was good overall. Maybe I'll go there again, but not anytime soon.

Rava idli is to die for here. Served with potato curry and spicy coconut chutney with little ghee (clarified butter). I'll come back again and again for this dish only.Rawa pudi onion dosa on the other hand is a miss. Laden with ghee, it has a nice crunch but somehow the ghee overpowers the taste. It's served with sambar and coconut chutney. It's a fairly busy restaurant. Be prepared to wait for a long time before getting a seat. Once seated, the service is prompt and food comes out fast.

This was my first time going here. Their menu is all vegetarian. I got chaat and vada sambar, both were delicious and authentically South Indian. There was a line to get inside, probably took us about 15 minutes to get in on a weekend evening but I highly recommend. I would be back again to try out more dishes. The staff is very nice and friendly as well.

Nothing much to say about the ambiance. It was too loud with lots of people and a long wait time. Ordered the Bisibell bath, Puri and Masala Dosa. I really liked the bisibella bath, but the puri was meh and so was the chat! Masala Dosa was good too! For this place, I would recommend to order the typical Karnataka dishes, Bisibella bath, Masala dosa. I have liked those dishes well compared to the Puri and Chaat. The service was so and not so friendly. Overall it's kind of overpriced for the food and service ordered. Bisibellabath is the only dish I would want to come for again.

I was wary of mtr with the mixed review, but my mother was in town, and had recently visited Bangalore where she ate at MTR (and had been to growing up) so she was excited to try their first US location and wanted to compare so of course I indulged! We went on a Tuesday at 6 pm. Restaurant was busy but not full and we did not have to wait for a seat. We ordered dahi puri and two types of dosa. Both came very quickly! The dahi puri was quite good, though very mild. The dosa were fresh and tasty. Maybe both were not what you'd get in India but pretty good for American standards! Prices were in my opinion good for this area, especially as most South Indian food in the Seattle area is questionable at best. Worth it in my opinion, especially at non peak times!

Authentic South Indian food. Ordered idly vada, rasam vada, masala dosa, onion utthappam and thali.Rasam vada - rasam was too good, Vada was not great. It was not crispy either.Idly chutney great combination. Onion utthappam was perfectly cooked and that's how it is done. Thaali was filling, only the special rice Vaangi baath was not flavorful no salt.Highly recommended- onion utthappam.They have limited menu which is very good.Service was quick. Ambience is just wow. Will visit again to try chaats.

Authentic, Expensive, Long wait time. One tip: Chow chow bath is upma + kesari. We thought it was some special rice.Wish they are more online friendly for reservations and reduce in person wait times.

Waited around 30 min to get in. The food was pretty mediocre, probably would not go again. Was expecting more from MTR given the hype, but to me, everything tasted overly greasy. It felt like the preparation was a little rushed even though the food itself took 15-20 min to come out. The restaurant felt too crowded and we couldn't help but feel rushed because of the long line of people waiting outside. ‍
