text: This is my 2nd time at Udupi Cafe, and I waited to write a review until a 2nd visit to be sure. The service here is lackluster, our waiter actually told us that \"he only works here\" and has no input into the chefs cooking when we asked him if we could not have all the vegetables in the mixed pakora platter. seriously? \n\nThe food is mediocre, the pakoras are dry and tasteless, we had chile pakoras and there was no spice or creativity to them.\n\nThe dosa itself is good, the potatoes are very mushy and have minimal taste and their chutneys are not the best quality. \n\nI would recommend spending more time on working on their food  preparation and less time on the wait staff telling us that nothing can be changed. As a 100% indian, i would recommend Jewel of the Crown over this cafe in an instant.
