Wow! This is the place to go for dosas. I absolutely love the butter masala dosa!! It was so fantastic. The mango lassi was also good. Definately a place to try if you like vegetarian dishes.
Pros: Wonderfully prepared dosas

Been meaning to try Annapurna for months now, being that it's only a few blocks from our house and everyone says it's so good, and finally decided to go last night. We got there a little after 5:00 and were given a large booth perfect for the kids...and good thing we got there early because the restaurant filled up quickly while we ate. I'm very familiar with Indian cuisine, but even so, the menu was a matrix of things I've never heard of before and was thus a bit overwhelming especially having to order kid friendly food. Not to worry though, the host was extremely friendly and helpful and made several "kid-friendly" recommendations along with a couple of spicier dishes that my wife and I could enjoy. It was all really really good. We had samosas, vegetable cutlets, idly (steamed rice lentil cake, dosas (huge cone shaped crepes with phenomenal side sauces), Dal and a mushroom curry...and mopped it all up with some fantastic butter and garlic nan. For dessert, we had Gulab Jamoon - (deep fried milkballs served with light syrup), Almond Halwa (ground almonds cooked in heavy milk sauce and melted butter), and homemade Mugalai ice cream. The kids, of course, mostly enjoyed the nan and dessert. I plan on going back to continue working my way through the menu...and I dig that it's all vegetarian.
Pros: Vegetarian, awesome friendly service, great for kids.
Cons: None
