Gluten free girl back here to tell you about an incredible spot for all foods accommodations if you want something delicious, filling, and an overall delight. I stopped in to grab some bites and appetizers while walking on Franklin street. I had no clue I would find one of my new favorite spots! I ordered the crispy plain dosa which came with a coriander, coconut, tomato sauce, and a soup. I had no clue how big it was until I’m arrived at the table. Thinking I would in no way finish it I was quickly surprised at how light and satisfying this meal was! Except for a few crumbs, I demolished the crispy dosa. The texture and flavor was unlike anything I’ve ever had and the type of bready but crispy flavor I have not been able to have because of my gluten food allergies. The fritters were also delicious and I wis I had a second stomach to eat more. Fortunately these will heat up perfectly at home. If you want an incredible place for a lunch alone (which I did) or a place to impress out of town friends, look no further! Add CholaNad to your must try restaurants!

Ordered all vegetarian food. Masala dosa, plain dosa, spring dosa, malai kofta, butter naan, South Indian porotta, and some korma. The koftas were as solid as rocks. The dish was pretty darn salty. The potato subji in the masala dosa was not freshly made and was smelling. Most of us didn’t finish our meal. This restaurant used to be so good in the past but not anymore. That explains why there was no one else in the restaurant other than just 6 of us. Worth noting that the wait staff was very friendly.

Absolutely one of the best Indian places around. The chicken tikka masala is really incredible, but THIS: we tried a new thing tonight called Masala navratan tartlets were absolutely unbelievable. It is this light flaky pastry bite filled with well flavored vegetables alongside dipping sauces. It is an absolute must to try. And they have a massive outdoor covered seating area, alongside an uncovered outdoor eating area. The atmosphere and food all around make for an excellent place without doubt.

This was one of my favorite restaurent 8 year before in 2017 – 2018. So I wanted to try again after 8 years. Inhave ordered Morkozambi bowel, sambar bowel, dhal bowl. The combo is good, quantity is very good with all other accompaniments.

A South Indian Culinary Gem.
If you’re craving authentic South Indian localised cuisine, Cholanad is a must-visit. My recent return after some time away revealed a delightful transformation, from a completely revamped menu to a rich and inviting ambiance. Parking was a breeze in their dedicated lot behind the restaurant, a definite plus. The staff was courteous and attentive, and the food arrived promptly.
The menu boasts a wide array of options, including an impressive Thali and numerous appealing combos. While they don’t offer a buffet, the extensive selection more than compensates. I opted for the Fish Kuzhambhu and fry combo, and it was exceptional. The generous portion included two pieces of perfectly fried fish and four substantial pieces in the flavorful curry – excellent value for the price. We also savored a very high quality Set dosa, Parotta, and Appam combo, accompanied by a rich Goat Milagu curry and a fragrant Chicken Curry. Every dish was a testament to authentic South Indian flavors. It was, without a doubt, one of the best South Indian meals I’ve had in a long time. Will sure return.

Fantastic food seasoned and spiced just as we ordered. Sundays half off bottles make for the perfect brunch combo with naan, egg dosa, and parota… Definitely coming back soon! Service was fabulous.

Great food. Uh very great food. We were a party of 5 and we sat at the side near the bar. It was just us and another table so the server didnt check on us much near the end. The parking is horrendous but its not the restaurant’s fault, just be aware. Food was amazing, big portions, and flavorful. Good vegetarian options too.

I have been searching far and wide for good south Indian cuisine!!!! This place is fantastic. So many flavors!!!! Decided to try the lemon ginger agave tea (although the saffron green tea looked good too) and the samosa appetizer was INCREDIBLE. So many options for Dosa too, I went with the pepper onion. Highly recommend 🙂

The food quantity is very less. The tawa fish fry especially for 13 dollars you only got one small fillet of fish. The curries we ordered butter chicken and vindaloo were decent. The best dish which I would definitely recommend is the pepper chicken from the appetizer menu, it’s super delicious and very spicy perfect
