Mylapore South Indian Vegetarian

I visited Mylapore South Indian Vegetarian while in Folsom and it quickly stood out as a restaurant that focuses on authentic South Indian flavors rather than trying to adapt the cuisine for a broader audience. The menu is entirely vegetarian and centers on traditional South Indian dishes such as dosa, idli, vada, and thali platters. One of the highlights of the experience was the dosa. The crepe itself was thin and crisp with a light golden color, while the filling had well-balanced spices that added depth without overwhelming the dish. Another standout element is the accompanying chutneys and sambar. These sauces play an important role in South Indian cuisine, and the restaurant provides multiple chutneys that add different layers of flavor ranging from coconut to spiced lentil preparations. The thali is also worth mentioning. It presents a variety of small dishes on a single plate, allowing you to experience multiple flavors and textures in one meal. It is a great way to explore different aspects of South Indian cooking. The restaurant itself has a casual and welcoming atmosphere that fits the style of the food. Many diners appear to be regular customers who come specifically for the authentic flavors. Service during my visit was efficient, and the kitchen kept dishes moving quickly even during busy periods. Overall, Mylapore South Indian Vegetarian offers a strong representation of traditional South Indian cuisine in the Folsom area. If you enjoy dosa, idli, and other regional specialties, this is definitely a place worth visiting.

The dosa is good here. Good sized portions and very filling. Service is friendly but a little hit and miss sometimes. Looks like maybe they're down an employee. Could just have been the day. Bring just a little patience, and you'll get a very nice, authentic meal. Chutneys are good, and the sambar is some of the best I've had in this area.

Food is very tasty. Stopped by while visiting lake Tahoe from Bay area around 8am. Ordered Mini Tiffin VIP vada idly Pongal along with masala docs sweet. I recommend. Ingredients are fresh. All items tasted really nice.

Mylapore in Folsom is a gold standard of South Indian Vegetarian restaurants, not only in the US, but anywhere including in India!! I came here first time on the way to Lake Tahoe in 2009 when it was new, and love coming here regularly since we moved near by couple of years ago. During all these 18 years that they have been serving, they have maintained the same highest quality, cleanliness and excellent service. Their selection of South Indian food feels like home prepared. I love all their staff who serve with a smile, make you feel at home, the Carnatic music in the background takes you down the memory lanes!! Such a gem of a giant of an Indian Restaurant, recommend with all my heart..

If you want to try a different style of ghee podi, this is the place! Their idli and benne dosa are absolutely delicious. I also loved the presentation with eco-friendly plates and banana leaves. The staff is very nice and welcoming.
