Our Top Pick
Temple Canteen
Temple-side South Indian vegetarian classics with high-volume consistency.
Notable Picks
8.6
A basement canteen under the Ganesh Temple serving South Indian vegetarian staples with cafeteria speed and steady flavor. The move is to lean into dosa-and-chutney comfort (plus idli/vada), then let the strong value and high repeatability do the rest.
Must-Try Dishes:
Pondicherry masala dosa, Idli-vada with sambar, Chole bhature
What makes it special: Temple-side South Indian vegetarian classics with high-volume consistency.
8.1
A full-service, date-friendly room where cocktails and a broader menu make it feel like an actual night out rather than a counter run. Fries land best as a shareable starter—use them as the crispy bridge between drinks and mains.
Must-Try Dishes:
Truffle Fries (when available), Signature cocktails, Seasonal small plates
What makes it special: A real sit-down night-out option in 11355 with shareable starters.
#3
Dosa Hutt
8.0
A no-frills South Indian counter across the temple corridor where dosas land hot, crisp, and reliably filling, with sambar and chutneys that do the heavy lifting. Come here when you want dosa variety without the canteen crush—quick service, straightforward room, and a menu that stays focused on the classics.
Must-Try Dishes:
Mysore dosa, Idli and vada combo, Paneer dosa
What makes it special: Crisp dosa execution with a sambar-forward flavor profile people return for.

Comfort Food Classics
Quick Bites Champions
Solo Dining Sanctuaries
A small Indian takeout-leaning spot where the vegetarian move is to keep it classic: paneer, chickpeas, and a bread order that shows up warm enough to mop sauce. It’s less about dining-room polish and more about dependable weeknight utility when you want a satisfying vegetarian curry rotation close to home.
Must-Try Dishes:
Chicken tikka masala, Butter chicken, Chicken biryani
What makes it special: Reliable curry-house standards in a part of Flushing with few Indian options.
