I crossed this cafe about 1000 times when making my way to liquors shop. Unexpected dry day in Delhi left me with no choice but to have my butt settled at this cafe opened next to the liquors shop. Surprisingly, they served one of the best dosa I ever had in a while. Loved that crispy Ghee Roast and Butter Roast masala dosa.
Carnatic cafe is a best best place for south indian good...i loved it 100/100
When we entered it's was pure bliss the ambiance and the spicy perfumes was simply awesome and from that point things just got better.
Be it food in form of bombat and filter coffee or the service it was just awesome.
Excellent place.. its always a good time to indulge in the delicious preparation at Carnatic Cafe. Malleshwaram 18th cross (Dosa) is a must have & filter coffee is always fabulous here. Best of times ahead guys!
It was a firsthand experience of ours at Carnatic Cafe, GK2. As it was my birthday yesterday we wanted to visit a new restaurant but were a little disappointed as there was no sambhar or chutney without onion or garlic.
We are Jain and my husband does not have anything underroot. So I would request you to have some option for Jains like us.
This place is just awesome and the south Indian is the best in India atleast :)
Ty For giving such special delicacies :*
Best food n very nice service ��Good staff n vareity options for south indian food are veryyy goos
Right from the start till the end it was a eating journey full of authentic south Indian cuisine other than you normally get to eat in various delhi south Indian restaurant. Must try the rasam and different authentic set dosa"s they were simply lip smacking.
It's different! When you talk about regular south Indian.. It's different. When you talk about regular dosa.. it's different and when you talk about South Indian menu.. It's different ��yummy �
Lovely food.. Lovely place. Had 18th Cross Dosa and it was just Amazing..
Amazingly soft idlis- gastronomic delight, great ambience and courteous staff - a well deserved 5/5
Love the food there ! authentic yummy south indian with great chutneys !
Good food, great ambience, value for money
My favourite South Indian restaurant in the entire area. Great variety of options available and the service is really quick. Top quality food. Recommend 10/10
Had breakfast here two days in a row, everything we tried was really tasty, everything was clean and very reasonably priced. You had both spicy and less spicy options, so perfect for travelers. Would absolutely recommend if you’re staying nearby. Lots of vegetarian options as well

Went out there with family for an easy dinner on a fine Saturday evening. The place was teeming with people. Had to wait for 5 minutes outside the place standing. The place is located on ground floor of Greater Kailash M-Block market. Luckily, we were able to find parking just opposite the restaurant. There are four stair steps that one has to climb, though side railing is there for support but a little pavement before it can be hindrance for people who walk with calipers and walking stick like myself. The place is NOT wheel chair accessible like most of our Indian food joints. People spend crores on embellishments but don't spend iota of their time Or brains on making these places inclusive for a sizable #disabled population of India. However this disabled population is called Divyang. The furniture could have been more comfortable. The tables are okay, made of brass. The chairs are hard. The decor is good. Since it's almost end of October, the atmosphere was cosy. The staff was courteous and service fast. All the items were prepared in pure ghee. The dosas are served with three kinds of chutneys. I personally liked original coconut chutney. The Dahi vada was sweet.The malleshwaram dosa will make you remember parantha made of homemade ghee residue. I found it awesome. The ghee roast dosa is served with potato masala on the side NOT inside. One has to ask for saambar, they don't serve suo motu. The podu are fried idlis like balls. The kesri bath was like light suji halwa. Generally, you feel hungry after an hour or two when you have had South Indian meal. However, this is the first instance when I felt full even when going to bed. Worth giving a try once. You won't regret it. All the same, I would prefer dosa in Lal Sai Market, Lajpat Nagar anytime over any upscale restaurant in Delhi. Street food beats restaurants all the times.
Undoubtedly one of the finest restaurants serving South Indian fare in Delhi NCR.
The place is minimally done, well lit and had soothing carnatic music playing in the background. Adequate seating arrangement is also there.
We went there to grab breakfast on a Sunday. We were attended a little late for my liking however the order was delivered very quickly. We had ordered filter coffee, mysore masala dosa and malleshwaram dosa. Both the dosas were finger licking good. Filter coffee was just okayish. For dessert we had a scoop of vanilla blueberry icecream. It was given in a cute coconut shell and was again very very good.
I feel the plating can be improved and also they need to have a provision for ramp for people with special needs. I also didn't see any high chairs for the babies. I hope the management incorporates these changes to make this cafe more inclusive and welcoming.
The food here is authentic and tasty. Rasam was outstanding and paddu is a must have snack over here. The staff and service was excellent. However, waiting time at every branch is totally tiring and it also fades off the vibe a little bit.
This Cafe serves amazing authentic dishes of karnatak. Must try padu, thatte idli. Very famous cafe in this area. The food is excellent but the service is the worst. We went there on Sunday at 12.45 so we managed to get a table but after 1 Pm waiting started outside the cafe. There are only two waiters who are taking care of all tables. The whole time they look into the mobile. We have to speak loudly to call him. He forgot my kid's order to place in the kitchen. Very worst service by their staff. Food is excellent so people come. The price is expensive as per the quantity. Ice cream one scoop is Rs. 170/-
One of the best dosas in the town.
Very good in taste.
Good hygiene and clean ambiance.
But the service is very poor, you have to wait too long to call anyone on table because they don’t even look and just ignore sometimes. This is very bad thing for any place.
Otherwise food and everything is really great.
Thampu soda highly recommended.
Undoubtedly the finest South Indian eatery in Delhi. The flavors are delightful, and the prices are exceptionally reasonable. The ambiance is pleasantly relaxed, making it a perfect spot for families.
I visited Carnatic Cafe in GK M Block market. Just like all Carnatic Cafe the ambience is nice . They have standard ambience for all their outlets.
I have ordered my favourite Malleshwaram 18th cross Dosa
Neer Dosa
Thaatey idli
puddu idli
Neer dosa is very good, it has a cloth like texture and made from coconut and white butter. They serve unique Coconut jaggery chutney with neer dosa which was good. Thaatey idli and puddu idlis are amazing as well. Puddu idlis are shallow fried idlis
Malleshwaram dosa was as usual amazing.
Service was really good and prompt despite cafe was completely packed.
overall nice experience.
Loved their Malleshwaram and Bombat Dosa. Their dosas are different from the regular dosa we have so expect a little different taste. Loved their chutneys. Dosas range between 200-300. Bombat and Malleshwaram are heavy and one dosa can definitely fulfill your stomach.
I went here for lunch with my family.
My dad ordered their thali whose name I don't remember but he loved it. He said the flavours were good and savory. I loved the rava kesari.
My mom ordered onion rava masala dosa which was so nice that I couldn't get a chance to click a photo. She loved it too
I ordered their special Malleshvaram dosa. It turned out as expected. Crisp on the outside and soft from the inside. It was dripping in white butter (which I love.) The only problem was the gun powder chutney. Altho it was very tasty, there was a lot inside the dosa. I would recommend the restaurant to reduce its quantity as 1/3rd of it I had to throw. Otherwise the dosa was superb.
To top off we had ordered Buttermilk which was very refreshing.
Worth a try. I ordered south Indian food and it was lip smacking.
We had Bombat dosa, masala dosa, malleshwaram 18th ( gun powder) , Benne khali dosa (butter dosa) , Ghee roast dosa & filter coffee and all tasted yum.
My personal favourite was Bombat Dosa :)
JUST ABOUT :]
Have lived in karnataka for sometime and realised that south indian food is not like a Generic term even the humble dosa has different texture and taste in different states like karnataka, kerala,Tamil Nadu etc
Karnataka dosas have a fluffy and crispy texture ,was very excited to try out the dosa and Thatte idli (big plate sized idli)
Tried the malleshwaram cross dosa the texture was bang on but the podi (chutney) was a disappointment it was just too much and made the whole experience not great
Idli was OK, also was surprised to find Tamil dosa options in carnatic cafe but anyways it's good as there are a lot of variety to choose
Interiors were modern and seating was available though it was pretty crowded
A Very authentic South Indian Restaurant.
The hospitality is amazing, service is quick, Food is Tasty and there are plenty of dishes to try.
Pure Vegetarian Food.
They have their home-made ice creams, just like naturals.
Decent place to be with family or friends.
Highly Recommended if you want to try Authentic South Indian Cuisine.
Authentic South Indian food Cafe. Very reasonable price and delicious food served. Liked the kokum drink and mysore masala dosa.
Good place for Karnataka style South Indian food preparation. Chutneys can be improved. Overall food is good. Reasonable prices.
We had rawa onion masala dosa, onion uthapam and wangi bhath along with filter coffee. Good quantity and quality.
Food was very different from the regular South Indian food available in market. They have so much variety with special signatures stuff of Carnatic as well.
We have been here multiple times but still we like to continue coming to try new stuff.
