I like dosa. Especially when it is crispy. And that’s what they delivered!
Unfortunately, I can’t remember need which menu item I had, but I think it was the chicken because I wanted one with meat and their choices were limited. I would suggest adding more meat options. Anyway, it was quite delicious. I really like the white, green, and red sauces. I wish I knew what they are. I think one of just enough to satisfy you but a guy like me could certainly eat a larger portion.
They’re very excited to serve you and it took about 8 minutes to get the food after ordering, with no one ahead of me. Very fresh.
Find your own open seating, as it’s in San Pedro’s Square. And it’s a fun atmosphere to eat, talk, and people watch.

This is actually located within San Pedro Square, so they don’t have their own seating area but you can grab food from any restaurant and sit there (like a food court).
I liked their Masala Dosa and the sambhar was spicy and really good as well. Though their hours said they’re open till 9:30, they closed their line at 9 so luckily I was able to make the cut!

I came across this place by chance, without reading any reviews. It was lunchtime, so I read their menu, saw that the place was clean and organized, and decided to give it a try.
The staff is very helpful, friendly, and efficient; they even provide an estimated time for your food to be ready.
I ordered takeout and was impressed by the presentation. My food stayed hot, neat, and maintained its flavor and consistency.
I plan to go back and try more of their menu!

We’ve been regular visitors and always enjoyed the food here, especially the non-veg dosa options. But recently the experience has gone downhill. They’ve started charging for extra chutney, and the portions they give now are very minimal, as shown in the pictures. This is disappointing and something we didn’t expect from a place we liked so much. The manager or head staff member who handles the orders was rude when informing us that the chutney is not free.

Huge Review of “ID Cafe”
I recently visited “ID Cafe” and was absolutely thrilled! This place exceeded all my expectations — from the atmosphere and service to the flavor of the dishes. Let’s break it down.
Atmosphere and Interior
The first thing that catches your eye is the stylish and modern interior. It’s clean, tidy, and the well-thought-out design creates a feeling of coziness and comfort. The bar area looks very professional, and the soft lighting is easy on the eyes. It’s clear that the team pays great attention to detail, from the furniture layout to the decor. It’s a place where you want to linger, whether for a quick lunch, a leisurely dinner, or a hangout with friends.
Service
The service at “ID Cafe” is a story on its own. The staff is incredibly polite, attentive, and professional. The waiters take orders quickly, provide detailed information about the food and drinks, and offer great recommendations. I was especially pleased that they don’t just do their job; they are genuinely interested in making sure every guest leaves happy. A special thanks for the prompt service — the wait time was very short.
Menu and Cuisine
The menu at “ID Cafe” is a true culinary celebration! It combines classic and signature dishes, with a strong focus on Indian cuisine. I tried several items, and each one left a fantastic impression.

They have really flavorful dosas with very unique and tasty fillings. I’m a regular and have ttied almost everything on the menu and everything is so good and authentic
Mumbai genie dosa used to be my favorite. Although for past few months the sauce has become super spicy. Really wish they reduce it or is at least customizable

They were pretty good Dosa. Not traditional sense, you will be unlikely to find chicken and mutton and dosas. Made in front of you, and the quantity of filling is nice. The accompanying Chutney as well as Sambar were. It was pricey, though, probably due to the location. While it was an above average, and even a good Dosa, I have had much better in the bay area and for cheaper. It sort of a food court arrangement. So you take your food and then you can eat outside at the tables.

The food here is good, though a bit on the pricey side. While it’s not an authentic dosa spot, the service was excellent. I tried their Hyderabadi bandi dosa, which was enjoyable. The chutneys and sambar weren’t very fresh and tasted just okay. If you’re looking to try Indian food in San Pedro Square, this is a an option.

Nice to see more variety inside San Pedro Square (food hall). It’s located right across from the parking structure.. where the crepe spot was previously.
Dosas were solid, mostly crispy and flavorful and well cooked, plus it comes out fast…although not hot like other spots I’ve had. Potato masala and sambar are tasty. 3 Chutneys are tomato (verrry thick and tomato paste-y), coconut (mild but solid), and peanut (very peanuty) so if you have a nut allergy be warned. It’s mild/semi medium spicy. Service is fast and you can do togo. Fyi the thickness of the dosa isn’t consistent so you get crispy spots and thick spots, in the picture you’ll notice its quite thick which is good if you get a dosa with toppings but i got plain so would’ve been nice to have more crisp. Still, overall good for the price and location is great for large groups and children since there’s usually live music during certain days.
Will return to try the other (meatier) dosas and drinks in future. Fyi you order via kiosk but there’s always a server to help if needed.

As soon as we entered the San Pedro Market, we smelled the delicious Dosas being cooked up by ID Cafe. It immediately caught our eye.
I ordered the Karaikudi Goat Keema (as I’d never had a meat dosa before) and my SO ordered the Tikka Paneer Dosa.
Orders taken on a small console, but able to talk to very kind staff who are happy to give recommendations.
5 minutes later, we got our food – served hot and sliced on a tray, accompanied by 3 different chutneys (a hot one, refreshing one, and a nutty one? I didn’t catch the names).
They were both delicious, deep flavor in both dosas alongside a good hit of spicy for the Goat dosa. My SO really enjoyed hers – even though South Asian foods aren’t her preference, she gobbled it up so quickly!
I recommend checking this place out for a quick and delicious lunch while enjoying market.
