Restaurant info
We’re a South Indian kitchen. Amma means mother in Tamil, and that’s how we cook the way we grew up eating at home. Dosas, idlis, vada, sambar, rasam, Chettinad chicken, goat curry, fish fry, biryani, rice bowls, and banana leaf meals. Filter coffee too. We use fresh produce and grind our own spices. No artificial colors, no MSG, no weird additives. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan plates, and we can usually work around gluten if you ask. Come sit down and eat, pick it up, or we can do catering for a group. If you’re looking for the kind of South Indian food people actually cook at home, that’s what we do.
