Crispy Dosa Restaurant (Vegetarian/Indian) in Watford

Best South Indian breakfast I had. Definitely delicious and fresh made Dhosa and other food item. Staff were really nice and polite specially Manju who takes care of us. I love it. Definitely recommend place.

I recently visited Crispy Dosa Watford and had a genuinely lovely experience. From the moment we walked in, the aroma of spices and sizzling dosas instantly set the tone. The staff were warm and attentive, and the ambiance had a clean, modern touch while still feeling cozy and welcoming. We ordered a variety of dishes, but the star of the show was definitely the dosa – perfectly crisp on the outside, soft inside, and paired beautifully with the chutneys and sambar. I especially recommend the Masala Dosa and the Gobi Manchurian as starters – full of flavor and spice done just right. Everything was reasonably priced, and portion sizes were generous. It’s great to see an all-vegetarian menu with plenty of vegan options too. This place is a gem for anyone craving authentic South Indian food in Watford – I’ll definitely be back!

Another highly recommended restaurant is Crispy Dosa in Watford, which serves real Keralan food with fresh, excellent, and numerous meals such as Medu Vada, Idli Sambhar, Dosa, and Chai, which reminds me of the native Indian taste. Locals describe it as the best South Indian food outside of Kerala, giving wonderful food at very reasonable costs, and this restaurant has the best waiter, Manju, who offered us a nice recommendation and provided us with prompt service.

Excellent food and very good service. Had good time.Teja& Manju

We had a lovely meal Food is tasty Service is excellent Highly recommend

Busy in off pick hours and here is the reason 👇 Food is delicious 🤤 service is great 😊 atmosphere is amazing ☺️ price is reasonable Highly recommended. Will definitely be back.

We had only take away, therefore I cannot say a lot about the atmosphere. The service was quite slow we were waiting the take away for quite a while. The food was satisfactory enough, portion is nice, prices are also reasonable. Nice veggie food 😋

Had dinner today at this restaurant. We had been there many times and food was ok. But today we found something in the kurma, unfortunatly towards the end when food was finished not sure what it was. When asked the staff, she said its spices. God knows what it is.

Crispy Dosa is hands down the go to spot for Indian food on the high street. If you're looking for real flavor, fresh ingredients, and authentic South Indian dishes that hit the spot every time don't look any further. Their onion raava masala Dosa is always perfectly crisp and served with a trio of chutneys and piping hot sambar that never disappoints. The Indo Chinese sides, like their veg Manchurian, are a spicy, satisfying bonus. You can tell they care about the quality of what they’re serving. it’s not just fast food, it’s food with soul. With newer chains like Chaiiwala opening nearby, it’s easy to get distracted by the flashy branding. But honestly, Chaiiwala feels more like the McDonald’s version of Indian food... convenient but nowhere near as authentic. Crispy Dosa keeps it real, with depth of flavor and traditional roots that come through in every bite. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing a takeaway, the service is warm and the food is consistently top notch. If you’re craving true Indian flavors especially South Indian ... skip the gimmicks and head straight to Crispy Dosa.

We came for lunch and we have the special South Indian thali and food was great.

Nice fresh dosa. Service is fast and the staff are helpful.

While the ambience and service were both great, I was quite disappointed with the food. The atmosphere was welcoming and the staff were attentive, making for a pleasant dining experience. However, the food lacked the flavors I was expecting. It just didn’t have that punch or richness that you typically get from Indian cuisine. To make matters worse, I ordered Pani Puri, but what I received seemed to have masala dosa stuffing instead of the usual flavorful potato mix. It was a bit of a letdown. Overall, while the restaurant has potential, I hope they can improve the flavors to match the overall experience.

A new find! Absolutely delicious food. The staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Very happy to recommend - not least because it is a completely vegetarian menu!

My visit today was very disappointing with stale and luke warm sambar . Never again 😕

Very pleasant atmosphere good food

Awful experience, terrible customer service, food was poor. We had a reservation for 8 people and when we arrived they said there was no booking and no space. We had to find evidence for our reservation, after which they managed to find a table of 8 (despite saying they were full the whole day). Upon ordering, the starters arrived before half the drinks, when the lassi jug finally arrived we were given no cups. There was also a fly in the lassi, when we raised this, the manager was unapologetic, unhelpful, and unsurprised, claiming it was not their fault. Food - we had to ask for cutlery and plates 4 times, once these finally arrived, the paneer was rubbery and the dosa arrived cold. Not sure what was worse, the fly flavoured lassi, cold food or terrible service.

If could I would give a zero star, i just entered the restaurant, hard 4 table were occupied we asked for the table with sofa but the person who attended US said no even after insisting because we were just two. I mean why ?? We might hardly take 30-45min to order eat and leave. Even it was not a rush hour. That’s not the way to treat a customer who is just entering the restaurant

A very poor experience where the food was cold, tasteless and unpalatable and the service slow. To add to the experience, we found a fly in the mango lassi

Great place for Indian food in Watford!

We have had a few weekend breakfast buffets and we have found it to be very good for our taste of south indian food.

Food came so fast , service was so polite . Playlist is amazing. Best .

Tasty Food however size of dosa is an issue, especially the Chinese Dosa

I have been here twice: once for breakfast and once for lunch. I have no idea what I had but I do know it was delicious, satisfying and the staff were wonderful with my ignorance.

Food was not flavourful at all and was soggy service was kinda looking like they didn’t want to be there

Food was so yummy, will definitely come back again to have a delicious South Indian dishes. . 🤤pls do open in Liverpool

We went there at Lunch time today and thought the food was average but it was cold by the time we started eating. We ordered the Lunch Combo which was served in steel thali. The thali’s were freezing cold and when the prepared food was served in these cold steel thali’s, the food goes cold. It’s pointless serving hot food on a freezing cold plate. Invest in some warming trays so that in these cold days at least you get to serve warm food which customers expect

Best food and quick Service. Great South Indian food. I don’t live in Watford but I’ll definitely visit again for this great food!!

Had a wonderful dinner, the dosas were absolutely stunning with awesome ambience and wonderful south Indian music

Pre match supper as restaurant was 10 mins from Stadium. We had the pick of tables at 6.30pm. Ordered chai, Dosa and fries. Chai was OK. Dosa was not crispy but tasty. The fries were fries! They did not have sweet potato version or sweetener for tea. Not the best experience.

Good Indian style food and great service.

The food was soo delicious and authentic! The tomato onion chutney was sooo good. Great service and friendly staff! I will highly recommend this place.

Food quality is good Hygiene should be improved

Had good food perfect Indian taste good place to spend with family and friends good service friendly atmosphere

all over good experience staff harika was pretty cool and good welcoming

excellent food and amazing service

One of the finest south Indian food chain restaurant having multiple branches across the UK serving authentic real taste of South Indian dishes.

We went for dinner at around 8pm on a Friday, the restaurant was quite empty(only 4 other people on 2 tables) and staff/service was ok and they add a 10% service charge on your bill. We ordered Veg munchurian, Ravva dosa, idly & Parota with Korma and they charged us 35£ which is over priced for the quality. Only manchuria was good and idly was ok but chutneys are tasteless & the parota was not crispy/layered, it was not cooked well, was cold and chunky & had some lumps of dough, Ravva dosa was roasted too much its like a papad and not enjoyable. Overall we were disappointed with the food and price. Not going to come here again or would recommend to anyone.

amazing food and large seating capacity, their buffet breakfast is well worth the price.

Overall, Crispy Dosa is a fantastic place for a casual meal or a quick bite. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic South Indian flavors with great service. Must try sambar rice,Rava Dosa and masala paneer Dosa🥳☺️☺️

Had amazing service and food today💐

Getting cash for visa and cancelling employees visa after one year.

I went there with my wife for dinner and we would say best dosa ever in London. Manager Abhinav & team is absolutely fantastic people they are very nice, kind and welcoming and food taste and quality is awesome. Must visit for vegetarian dosa lover.

Food was extremely good and service is smiling faces highly recommend

Wonderful atmosphere and wonderful taste of dosa all thanks to Abhinav and team very friendly❤️

I had the pleasure of dining at Crispy Dosa and was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service provided by Abhi and the team. From the moment we arrived, they went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish perfectly prepared and bursting with flavour. The overall service was seamless, and the warm, inviting atmosphere made the evening even more enjoyable. Abhi and the team's attention to detail and genuine hospitality truly stood out. I highly recommend Crispy Dosa and will definitely be returning for another amazing dining experience.

They serve the best Masala Dosa ever in Watford.

Visiting Watford for a week. Was walking around town and high street for a place to eat and found Crispy Dosa. Ordered Guntur panner, panner Dosa, masala kasava - they were all dry, should have ordered some curry. The taste was good. Also got kulfi (on a stick) - tasted good, and paan (was not fresh, was old and dry, couldn't swallow, had to spit it away). I was pleasantly surprised to know the staff spoke my mother tongue, easy to order. Will recommend if you are craving for lighter Indian food.

Booked a table via Google, but didn't need to. Two staff greeted us, which was unnecessary, but the food was great. Passion fruit juice tasted salty. Food was not too spicy. About 1/4 of the menu was vegan. I would go again.

Lovely Madras thali this afternoon.

excellent and nice food enjoyed a lot.nice staff thanks

Very disappointed that this is the 3rd time they do not give red onions with Chole bhatura , only white, they do not understand that it has to be red that goes with this dish. They just don’t care what the customer wants. Will not be going back now again.

Bad service , staff take order and they make mistake and do not come with the order then we had to re order !!! Staff also give wrong info about dishes . Staff must be well trained to serve in a restaurant. Food is good but service very bad .

Best South Indian Food in London. Everything was soo Delicious, went back second time in the same day!

Very very bad service I placed order and received it so late more than 30 mint . When i call to restaurant and ask for it they didn’t listen talk very rudely

Tooo busy restaurant but the staff was very busy with all the other things but the service was perfectly excellent all received at time excellent food tasty 😋highly recommended all staff needs appreciated 👏 come back again!!!

Very Poor- I being in crispy dosa watford on 14/12/2024,after having food, i got the bill with extra Service charge - 10%, what's that? VAT is already there 20%, and dish price ,why this restaurant is charging extra 10 % service charge from everyone?

Nice place nice food good service

Good place to dine in had a greate experience will come back again

Unfortunately had a very disappointing experience with Crispy Dosa in Watford. I placed an order for collection via Just Eat and asked if I could eat in the restaurant instead, as it was extremely cold outside and I was on my way to work. I even offered to pay extra for dining in, but the manager refused outright, showing no flexibility or consideration for the situation. This lack of customer care was shocking and left me feeling very unwelcome. In such freezing weather, a little kindness would have gone a long way, especially since I was willing to pay for the privilege. I won’t be returning and certainly can’t recommend a place with such poor hospitality.

Nice food and service , food is wholesome

Visited this place and food was delicious. Service was awesome, feels like Hyderabad

The atmosphere is great and the people are very welcoming. Our hostess seated us and the waiter came and took our order and helped us pick the food. Her suggestions were on point. Extremely glad with our experience.

Best South Indian restaurant in Watford

Please come here if you want very poor and slow service. Requested for all food to be mild. It was spicy beyond belief. Food was served at different times and we all ended eating separately. They should have brought food altogether. Bear in mind you will need to request tissues and cutlery constantly. Note to management, stop being so tight and hire more staff, and train them! Awful evening here

Good food, variety of food options, Value of money, portion size, amazing staff 👌

Excellent services and teste of foods it’s excellent

Loved the food and ambience here. Also customer service is 10/10. Thanks

Love this place! Great quality and delicious food!

My wife and i visited Crispy Dosa restaurant in Watford and had a wonderful experience! The sweet corn soup was absolutely delicious and my favorite dish of the meal. We also tried the fried rice and masala wada, which were both flavorful and well-prepared. The service was friendly, and the ambiance was inviting. Highly recommend, especially for the sweet corn soup lovers! Thank you....♥️♥️🥂🥂

Delicious food and Nice service first time in Watford I eaten South Indian tasty food. I felt like I eating in India😊😊😊😊😊

I’m originally from Chennai and have craved Indian food since my move to the UK. I visited crisis dosa and my cravings were fully satisfied. The food was authentic and close to home. Waiters were very pleasant to talk to and quick service Serving portions were good quantity and very reasonably priced menu. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone missing home.!

Sorry to say but the food and service both were below par.

Lovely place and great service! As a vegan, Im really happy there was something for me! Thanks again!
