Coming from south Indian roots this is hands down the best dosa spot in Brantford and dare I say in Ontario. It gives guru lakshmi a Michelin tire star restaurant a run for its money. So happy that it's opened up here in Brantford. If you wanna try real Indian spicy I recommend the Andhra masala dosa. But for others that can't handle then I'd recommend the ghee masala (fragrant potato filling) dosa. Ask for extra crispy and triangle cone shape for extra fun . But anything on the menu will be delicious . Dosa is a lentil crispy pancake with different chutneys ( coconut white chutney and red chutney) and sambhar ( spiced lentil soup) as condiments. The rava masala does was great too. Also helpful tip the chutneys and sambar are unlimited. Also lovely filter coffee experience too. The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable so ask questions like I did to understand the menu There's ample parking and even though the windows are reflective giving the false impression of it being closed it's very much open. So glad we went to try this spot out.

Amazing place for South Indian food..quick service and delicious food. We had ordered medu vada, uttappa , mysore masala dosa along with filter coffee. All 4 items were super tasty and fresh. Loved the sambar and chutney too.. The atmosphere is nice, I feel they should work more on their washroom cleanliness.. overall it was a good experience. Thanks team

A Hidden Gem in Brantford! I’m so glad I discovered Jayalakshmi South Indian Cuisine — what an absolute gem! The food was incredibly tasty and full of authentic South Indian flavors. Two lovely ladies served us and were so warm and attentive throughout our visit. The ambiance is clean and welcoming, and I was pleasantly surprised by how affordable everything was. The washrooms were spotless, and the entire place felt well-maintained. You truly get top-quality food without burning a hole in your pocket! Honestly, I had no idea this place even existed — when I first saw it, I thought it was permanently closed. I highly recommend putting up some eye-catching signs so more people can find you! So happy this restaurant is in Brantford. Will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to anyone craving delicious South Indian cuisine!

Very tatsy food. We loved parotha with chicken curry, Ghee Dosa and Veg Kothu parotha. Idli was soft but taste was ok. Coffee was very tasty. The lady working there, adjusted the coffee as per our requirements and taste.

The food was amazing! Me and my friend crushed the Family Dosa which is meant for more than 3 people but what really made the experience special was ASHLEY. She was super caring, generous, and made us feel so welcome. Big thanks to her for the great service!
