VANAM - INDIAN VEGETARIAN

Archit Jha a month ago

We stopped by during the Friday dinner rush and ordered the Rava Mysore Masala Dosa and Crispy Corn—and somehow ended up eating well past our appetite because everything was just that good. The flavors genuinely transported us back to India: authentic, comforting, and packed with the kind of warmth and masala magic that’s hard to replicate. The dosa was crisp and flavorful, and the Crispy Corn was dangerously easy to keep going back to. Just as importantly, the hospitality matched the food. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and Maddy took wonderful care of us throughout our meal. It’s exciting to place putting this much care into both its food and its guests. We’ll absolutely be back, and I’m looking forward to trying more of the menu. Highly recommend!

Came here for family friends moms birthday. Had to wait roughly 10 minutes as it was a crowded Saturday night. Ordered food and came out relatively fast, roughly 10 minutes. Food was good, definetly one of the better vegetarian restaurants. We let our server Rachel know it was someone birthday and she went above and beyond. She brought pineapple kesari and played happy birthday over the loud speaker for the whole restaurant. Our server Rachel was very kind and whole time and definetly went above and beyond with her service! Strong recommend.

The food was rich in flavor and high quality. The ingredients are fresh and you can tell because you feel energetic afterwards. The service is also amazing, we had an issue with one of the dishes and both of our servers tried their best to rectify the situation, and truly went above and beyond. Varma single handedly went in the kitchen and got us the papdi chaat to our liking, which was amazing. He was very understanding, respectful, and polite. Rachel was also a big help, planning something special for my grandson as it was his birthday that day. She made him truly feel special, also going above and beyond. She was kind, and very accommodating. Loved my experience overall and definitely will be back

We visited this restaurant twice. Overall, it was an okay experience. The menu could benefit from a few clearly identified options for guests with specific dietary preferences. Since this is a traditional vegetarian restaurant where ghee, butter, milk, and curd are used in many dishes, having a few clearly labeled alternatives would make a big difference. The jackfruit biryani was the highlight of our meals. The jackfruit was cooked perfectly, well-spiced, and very flavorful. The Kaju mushroom curry was also delicious. The vada and sambar were good as well. The baby corn manchurian was just average and tasted mostly like baby corn coated in tomato ketchup. The mixed vegetable uttapam was served a bit cold, had only onion and tomato as toppings, and the vegetables didn't cover the entire uttapam and had podi sprinkled on top which was not expected. The chole bhature was disappointing- the chole was quite spicy and tasted like raw tomato gravy. The staff were friendly, hardworking, and the service was good throughout both visits and a few improvements to some dishes, the experience would be much better.

Rachel was phenomenal with her service and recommendations. She was very knowledgeable about everything on the menu. The food was excellent. The ambiance and music were amazing. I went for my mom’s birthday and they have ‘Rava Kesari’ as the birthday dessert. It was a perfect end to the dinner.
