I went to Saivam Cafe during a trip to LA and I have to admit, this restaurant is one of the few places which really makes me miss my hometown Chennai. I ordered the Chinese Combo, which had just the right amount of spice in it. I had also ordered the Chennai street side chat and the kothu parotta, which are both must-tries if you ever visit. The service was very kind, and although it took some time for the food to come, the taste was totally worth it. Will definitely recommend to my friends and family in Los Angeles.

I had a good experience at Saivam Cafe. The customer service here was excellent. I ordered the Paneer Masala Dosa which was very well done, however it seemed that the dosa got a little soggy fast – I wish it was crispier. The dhal was very thick, which is was a little too thick for my taste. The chutneys were great. Overall you get a lot of food in just 1 dosa, however it does seem a bit on the pricey side ($16 for my dosa). I do hear good things about the Spring Roll Dosa.

On top of our previous positive reviews – year ago 2020. .. adding this ->>> all should try Jamaican drink from Hibiscus and chia seeds it’s the best for the summer 2021
Real authentic Indian vegetarian cuisine and rare find in Stanton-W ball road..
Real treat for Orange County people who likes pure vegetarian saves time to commute to Artesia / Irvine for finding South Indian food

Ordered Poori w Aloo curry and korma, Onion Pakoda (fritters), Gulab Jamun. Food was a disappointment. They gave me Bhatura (made of all purpose flour) instead of poori (made of whole wheat flour and is smaller in size). Definitely not what i intended to eat. Gulab jamun was worst, it was very hard, stale. Onion Pakoras were good. I will still give them a try for other items in future and update the review if need be.
I loved that they are eco friendly and packed most of the food in compostable containers except for the sauces which came in plastic bowls.

I wish they had more restaurants like Saivam!!
Love their special hibiscus teA .
Their Chennai beach sundal is our all time fav! Both their plantain and chilli bajji is yummy! Their pooris are soft and appears healthy without oil dripping from them.

As others have noted, the owner himself who served us was exceedingly nice and was flexible with the menu. We had combo 3 and 4 which came to about $30.. all the items were delicious to taste, and I would assert the best I’ve had in a while..

The cleanest and most delicious Indian food I’ve found. Any time we find a friend or relative that hasn’t eaten here, we bring them and they always love it. Spring roll dosa and Manchurian Gobi (great as an appetizer to share) are my two go to items although literally every plate I’ve tried has been immaculate.

Today was my third time at this cafe over the course of a few months. Each time I’ve tried something different and always been amazed by the flavor. Good portions, high quality food. It’s rare to find an Indian vegetarian/ vegan restaurant in this area so thank goodness for Saivam. The staff are very nice and patient when I have questions about the menu. Only thing is I wish they would reduce waste because all the plates and utensils are disposable. Other than that, it’s great and I recommend.
