Oota (food in Kannada). Anyone who's been to Karnataka and had the staple food - Idli, vada or dosa, this is the closest you can get. The idli and medu vada reminded me of those Udupi-Manipal days with filter kaapi. The idli was really filling, loved it!♥️ while the masala in dosa could've had more vegetables.
This is really amazing South Food point which has never disappointed me till now. However, they have very basic sitting arrangement but sometimes it is good for change.
I love their Mysore Dosa and Rava Idli. These are my constant dishes, I order them every time apart from other items.
Rava Idli is very soft, fluffy and satisfying where as Mysore Dosa will remind you the authentic South Indian Dosa. It has perfect blend of chutney that is applied on Mysore Dosa.
Aprat from this, their Sambhar has lots of veggies and with proper consistency.
Green chutney is their USP.
Overall, if are looking for the apt taste in economic prices then this is the place for you.
P.S. They have really quick service.

I normally explore local food when I travel to new places, but this time, I had company from down South, who was kinda adamant on having a South Indian breakfast.
Well, searched for some options on Zomato and found OOTA!
Oota in kannada simply means meals.. Apt name to suit a South Indian restaurant in Delhi. We had dosas, idlis, vadas and coffee and I must say, the taste was close to what we get in Bengaluru. When i probed the staff a bit, I came to know that the owner and main cook were both from Bengaluru. Small compromises in ingredients were easily visible, like use of pumpkin instead of white pumpkin, use of 'Amchoor' (dried mango powder) instead of tamarind.
What I appreciate is the pricing.. Restaurant maintains pricing close to what we are charged in 'Darshini' restaurants down south, when the owner can easily charge premium prices for providing food of different region.
All in all, an above average experience for me.
Ratings:
Location: A 3.5.. tucked away in series of office buildings. it can be located easily only through maps.

Ambiance: A 3.5.. has just 3 tables outside the restaurant, with basic table-chairs.
Service: A 4.. quick and courteous.
Price: A 4.5.. very economical for the food and taste provided by the restaurant
