Dosa World in Tower Hamlets - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Delightful dosa restaurant just off Brick Lane. Had a tasty masala dosa. Great prices. Good service. Will be back soon.

Must not recommend, staff is very rude and aggressive to make their point, I had ordered chicken Briyani and he made it sweet and he put pineapple syrup on the top Briyani. When I asked it is sweet and the chef along with manager started explaining me aggressively that this how we make Briyani and I should tell them before that I don’t want pineapple syrup on top. Can anyone tell him how would I know what he serve me 💀

My favourite restaurant in London.

came here but they are not open even though it is opening hours ):

A totally fabulous curry..... I l9ve this little gem of a restaurant. The dosa's are fantastic but today I tried ginger chicken and cabbage thoran.... oh my word, it was fabulous..... can't recommend this place enough.

Best dosa in Brick Lane! Exquisite taste.

Amazing South Indian restaurant in East London. Great crispy dosa and Fish curry. They adjusted the spiciness for us and it was perfect! Friendly staff and super chilled atmosphere. Licked the plates clean! Highly recommend.

Perfect for what it is, we got dosa and paraote breads and Brinjat (eggplant) masala and it was excellent and flavorful. A bit of heat but not too spicy, while the atmosphere is exactly as it should be for a semi-takeaway shop, three stars conveys that you shouldn’t expect tablecloths and fancy settings. The proprietor was lovely to talk to and we had excellent service.

Incredibly tasty food, multiple vegan options, right next to Brick Lane but definitely not as pricey as the restaurants there. Spent about 50 quid for a very filling lunch for 3 people

Very bad service . Rude behaviour

I ordered three malabar parathas with one chicken curry out of hunger. I only received one paratha with the curry. Called Dosa World. They were very rude and said they were very busy. So they forgot to add two more parathas. Very bad service. Please don’t order anything from there if you are really hungry.

I liked this little place, delicious Dosa. Didn't have a few things on the menu like samosas & Kulfi otherwise would have rated it higher

Love the food. We ordered sambar idli, potato thoran, lemon rice. And everything tasted very good. Vipin was an amazing host. He recommended us on what to order and service was prompt, friendly and polite :)

I personally would go back because the food is delicious and authentic, a dimond in the rough

Definitely come again, but all they need to do is have some more staff as only guy was working as food serving, table cleaning, taking order and taking payments. Food was good not expecting much.

Unfortunately, the dosa did not taste authentic. Not going back sadly.

My favourite dosa in London. Very kind staff and wonderful service.

The food is delicious, especially if you're looking for quality South Indian cuisine. I highly recommend visiting at least once.

Update: The dosa chef left to India recently, and the dosas are horrendous now! RIP Dosa World. Mind-blowing! I ran into Dosa World by accident, and I can honestly say that it is, by far, the best South Indian place I’ve been to in London. I had the medu vada (!), the rava masala dosa, and the badam milk shake. The dosa batter is made in-house, and the quality really shows. There was a generous amount of masala, and the sambar and chutneys were very good. Only a really authentic place will serve medu vada, and not offer a stupid mango lassi (which is not a thing in India). Very pleasant atmosphere and quick service. Good prices too.

I enjoyed my dinner. The restaurant is small and quiet, which is really appreciable and rare around brick lane. Good food and prices.

The M O S T flavourful food i ever had.

Mouth watering food in authentic taste and nice service

I visited Dosa Corner on a cold evening, looking for some comfort food to warm me up. I was not disappointed by the cosy atmosphere and the friendly service of this restaurant. The menu offered a variety of South Indian dishes, from dosas to curries, and I decided to try the lamb and potato curry with parota and the steaming hot egg dosa. The lamb and potato curry was rich and flavourful, with tender pieces of lamb and soft potatoes in a spicy sauce. The parota was a flaky and buttery flatbread, perfect for dipping into the curry. The egg dosa was a thin and it came with two different chutneys: coconut and tomato. I enjoyed the contrast of the savoury dosa and the sweet and tangy chutneys. The portions was okay and the prices were reasonable. I was very satisfied with my experience at Dosa Corner, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a tasty and authentic South Indian meal. I would give it 4 out of 5 stars, only deducting one star for the slightly slow service during the peak hours.

Masala Dosa was great as usual.

Decent food, well priced. Good if you are in the area, very friendly service

This is a great family-run business, and we really enjoyed the Ghee Masala Dosa, Kadala Curry (super tasty) with Malabar Porotha. The service was super quick and clean. The restaurant is tucked away on Hanbury Street, just off Brick Lane. Tons of vegetarian options and highly recommended if you fancy a good Dosa in London.

Food was amazing and service was so great. It was my first time trying Tamil food and I couldn’t get enough hence the lack of a photo…I only realised I hadn’t taken one after it was all gone! Another thing I would note is that as we decided to split the bill the gentleman had the forethought to write down all our amounts so we got to skip the awkward calculations ;) Wonderful experience and new favourite spot

Food is great, but if you look like you're an Asian, hospitality score goes to an absolute zero. Otherwise, you'll get first class treatment.

The place is a very small hotel, but the food and service are great!!!

Very good dosa/Thali. Authentic taste. I am experience Indian food eater and I know what I can expect from place like this. No fuss just good Indian food.

I had the Mysore Masala dosa here on a sunny Sunday morning and it was banging!

Amazing hospitality and very delicious dosa, all at a very reasonable price

No daal sambar and half a filled dosa and only one tiny pot of chutney when I ordered 2 Dosa.

good cheap and tasty dosas, lots of options and friendly staff.

This is the most AUTHENTIC Indian place on or off Brick lane. Really solid South Indian food with some North Indian curries as well. Had the Dosa on one visit and thali on another visit. Most of the other places on Brick lane are Bangladeshi, trying to sell as Indian. Love this place!

Authentic South Indian food! Possibly the most authentic in brick lane! The owner is really nice and kind. You should try it!

Klein und einfach, das Essen sehr lecker.

Very nice dosa and friendly service

Really great food , authentic south indian food . Great service , really sweet staff. Totally recommend this place.

Stunning, proper South Indian flavours.

I’m from India and I’ve had Indian food in Leicester and all over London but this is a special little place, best dosas I’ve had in the UK, also they do the best Malabar paratha and malabar chicken, besides this, the bearded man who runs the place is super friendly and warm. Will defo go back again!!!

The food was not very great.. have had better South Indian dishes in many different places in London..

Good place, good service tasty food was served..

I would not call this restaurant a Dosa place, there is more amazing stuff in the menu like, Kothu porotta, Poori masala etc. Great food.

There are so many fake Google reviews of Bricklane indian/bangladeshi restaurants (check out all the 5 star reviews done by a person who's only ever written 1 review). Many of those restaurants have people standing outside pressuring you to go in as you browse the menu. Dosa World is the exact opposite; more of a cafe than a restaurant (no alcohol), a few no-frills tables, and kind staff who listen to you attentively and cook everything made to order (I was able to ask for coconut milk to be used in my dish) as well as an extensive menu (with lots of vegetarian options). Honest, welcoming and delicious. Thank you :)

Lækkert krydret og fantastisk smagfuldt

I needed an eatery with good vegetarian options for my party of four and was not disappointed. The food was totally excellent. I happened to enjoy a chicken dish with a lovely mango lassi. Others in the party had dosas which were very good. Apart from the excellent food I should mention the friendly and helpful staff. Dosa World is only a few steps away from the tourist trail of Brick Lane with endless guys offering discounts and trying to lure you in. None of this at Dosa World. Unfortunately there were not a lot of people eating but then we were quite early. What else can I say? Patronise if you are in the area.

Amazing food and purely authentic south Indian. Staff is really friendly and enhanced the experience

Worst service…. Not at all worth ordering from this restaurant very very bad taste… they added more color for chicken 65 and taste is very bad

I ordered my food on menulog chicken 65 they added over red colour to it and taste was very very bad….. and also asked for cutlery but they didn’t show up….. also ordered chilli chicken for they added same chicken65 pieces and added some sauce to it and it is very salty.. I won’t recommend to this restaurant again. Very bad service.

The best Authentic Indian restaurant in Shoredich. If you are looking for the falvours of true India, this is the place to go. The owners are very kind and friendly.

The food is amazing here and brought me right back to eating dosas and idlis in India.

The food was great, tasted like in india. Service was so kind and caring. Would love to come again to try more dishes

Went with my daughter for masala dosa. We also ordered lemon rice and daal. Everything was delicious and we can’t wait to go back for more dosa. Clean and relaxed atmosphere.

Tried there twice after recommendation from a local tour guide. Once alone and once was two of us. I'm sorry to say that I was disappointed each time. It may be food you'll like, however it was too salted and otherwise humdrum for me. Too bad for me, as I was hoping to really enjoy it.

Masala dosa and/or tomato chutney was over salted on sat’s order. Much more so than when I had it from you before, otherwise really great 👍🏼👍🏼

Tried the lamb masala dosa and it was great! The dosa itself is one of the best I've had

I dont know who the chef is , he needs to change im a regular but this had a fowl taste and smell

Good dosas but refrigerated chutneys

Good food but needs more sambhar

Enjoyed the thick spicy sambhar with vada and uttapam, with simplicity of the hosts.

Nice place to visit in the Brick Lane for Dosa lovers. Small cozy place. The food was good. The Chilli Idly had a nice spice to it.

Small restaurant with delicious food. Reasonably priced with a solid menu. Would definitely return!

Food was good but the rava dosa came without the potato filling.

Very ok place not amazing service not amazing food but the only place doing south Indian food in E1 so dosa lovers have little to no choice

Exceptional food. Will most definitely order again

Love this little gem of a place. The menu is extensive so lots of choice & the food is like proper home cooking. Great menu. Great food. So many people wondering up & down Brick lane are missing the best Indian food because its on a side road. Go find it!!

The service isn't great. Only one person working the restaurant so service is slow. The food however, is nice and there's an excellent selection of veg and non-veg/vegan dishes.

All the food was delicious but the portion size of Dosa is very disappointing (two or three spoonfuls of filling is not good value for money). We have been using having takeaways for some time now and the food portions are getting smaller and smaller

The menu is incredibly varied, everything was delicious, we had mutton kottu roti, and lamb dosas. And fabulous mango lassis. Definitely recommend.

Great South Indian food, just off Brick Lane so much quieter. More like a cafe than a restaurant. It was a welcome break from the hustle of the main strip.

I mixture of superb curries. To be recommended.

My sister & I had a delicious masala dosa, with onion bajis, idlies which were served with tasty sambar & other spicy sauces and a sweet lasi. As we grew up in India, we have always really loved Indian food. The staff here were friendly and the service was good.

We are lovers of Dosai! It was great that we found this place just off Brick Lane. A small cafe with around 6 tables. We ordered the Masala Dosa along with onion bhaji, idly & lassi. The savoury dishes were both served with small bowls filled with a sweetish, coconut/yoghurt type sauce as well as a warming, spicy samba, with a little kick. The food was very authentic, both of us having been born & brought up in Southern India, it brought back many memories! Recommended to visit.

Petit resto qui ne paye pas de mine, mais la cuisine est excellente et surtout à très bon prix ! Nous reviendrons avec plaisir durant notre prochain séjour

Lovely food, good price, swift service, would order again!

Very good teasty long time after I teast real south Indian teast

Really tasty... Same taste which I tated in India...

Just as I’m writing this all the great flavours of dosa world are coming back to me. Tasty sambar, crisp and light dosa, yum filling. I need to go back!! Great service. Early dining so wasn’t too busy. Went for the paneer masala dosa. Very good

We had Chicken Biryani.Its Great. South Indian Food in central London.

Excellent cuisine, good variety of food with a personal touch. I highly recommend. Good 👍

Myself and my daughter had a meal here last night and it was excellent!Veg samosa, onion Bhaji and Masala Dosa were very tasty, washed down with Mango Lasse which was delicious!Reasonable price, would very much recommend.

Beautiful food in a very casual setting. Not super fancy or anything but you get great food for a great price, ideal for a simple dinner out.

Amazing food! Loved the paneer dosa

I am being very generous giving a 1, as the only thing that deserves credit is the food (which tasted alright - not good). It was my life's mistake coming to this restaurant However I think it tasted alright as were hungry and so needed food. We came to the restaurant yesterday, and we walked in. My first complaint is that there was almost no parking, however this isn't that much of an issue as it was in a rush area. There was only one other family and there were loads of empty tables. We asked the workers there, and they said it was fully reserved. Then, my mum talked with the manager, and he asked us to wait outside for 5 minutes (which turned into 15 min), and after that we got a very small table for a family of 4. Then, we gave our orders. It turned out that half the things on the menu couldn't be made. We let that problem slide as we thought of other options. The person who was taking our order was very arrogant and raised his voice a bit - looked as though he disrespected us (he does this to everybody). We also ordered 2 mango lassis. It took 30 minutes for these mango lassis to arrive (we also had to remind the lady worker, and she bought us the lassis 5 min later). Also, it took the food around 50 min to arrive. The lady worker first bought us another table's order in 30 min. We politely said 'No, sorry you must have got confused between the tables', and she walked away. Finally, when we got our food we found out that portions were very small, and for dosas, you have to pay for extra servings of chutneys, while this is free in other restaurants. Also, the dosa was not that crispy. Also, since this is a south indian / sri lankan cuisine, I suggest you only get the foods from these cuisines only as other foods are not that good. Also, they charge quite alot. In conclusion: - DO not come to this restaurant for a date or with kids - DO not come if you are very hungry - DO not come at peak times.

Stopped here for a lunch one Saturday. Delicious Thali and Dosa. Authentic and highly recommend!

Small cozy restaurant. Welcoming owner. Delicious food.

Such delicious food and warm, friendly service. Much appreciated and highly recommended.

Very underwhelming food. Service was nonexistent. Disappointing, especially given how much good Indian food there is in this neighborhood/London. Definitely skip.

Service was great, food was spectacular!

Tasty, reasonably-priced dosai with friendly and kind service :)

Always like to try the dosa whenever I can and this was as good as it gets. Great food in a no-frills setting, and the waiter was very friendly and attentive.

I have been living in the area for 4 years and been ripped off by many restaurants in brick lane (and got food poisoned a few times). Dosa world is the best (and not expensive) indian food in the entire area. I have been there plenty of times bringing friends and family. Very nice service too. it would be only better to increase the selection of drinks (ie more juices and soft drinks)

Popped in tonight to get a masala dosa. Delicious! Amazing flavours. Great value for money and staff were really nice. Will deffo go back with friends

Perfect place to go if you want to have traditional South Indian cuisine. They have lot of vegetarian food options along with non vegetarian dosa and curry options.

Delicious authentic Indian food

Dosa are not authentic, it seems the standards are typically a DESI type of standard, sloppy or not-precise in delivery or of a high quality standard of food, just disappointing. High Cost, best you can eat are in East Ham for half the price? In India it is a breakfast food delivered at a very low price, less than a pound, here it has been sold at a high cost at a marginally higher cost, makes it not worth how much you pay that amount ...?

Great dosa, starter felt to spicy to finish. Customer service was okay.

Usually great food but not today. Ordered medhu vada with sambhar, only for it to be served to us very overcooked, complained to their waitstaff only to be told ‘this is how we serve it.’ After talking to the chef we got another serving unfortunately just as overcooked and this time burnt. Our chutney and sambhar was also very watered down with no flavour at all. Surprisingly the masala and rava dosa we later ordered came with a new batch of sambhar and chutney which actually tasted quite nice. Consistency is a problem here.

We ordered 2 masala dosas which were bland and oily. The paneer masala lacked any sort of flavour. Even the dhal was a complete let down. This is not a good quality restaurant for South Indian food. It’s good for people who have no taste buds!
