South Indian Bites – Crispy, Flavorful, and Made Fresh!
Welcome to ID Cafe

Welcome to ID Cafe

The food carts in Southern India inspired us to recreate a stuffed Dosa with the right amount of crispiness on the outside balanced with the juiciness on the inside. We sourced authentic ingredients to create the perfect Bandi (food cart) style Dosa. Indulge your palate in a variety of sauces from all over India from the famous Pav Bhaji to the spicy Vijayawada Sauce.

Health Benefits

Health Benefits

“Dosa and Idli are popular South Indian dishes that are not only tasty but also beneficial for your health. One of the key ingredients in our recipes is ghee, a clarified butter that's rich in vitamins A, E, and K, and known for its heart health benefits. We also use asafoetida, a potent spice recognized for its digestive advantages. Additionally, we include a touch of turmeric in our dishes, a well-known anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, making these meals as healthy as they are delicious.”

What our guests are saying

The perfectly spiced dosa was delicious. Both the plain dosa and the special with minced goat meat were very tasty. The idly was perfectly light, airy, and delicious with the selection of 4 sauces that came with the 3 idly. The mango lassi was a delightfully sweet way to wrap up our dinner. The service was very friendly, prompt, and professional. The dining area was bright and spacious. The location was very convenient.

I have been coming to ID cafe a lot. I drive all the way from Oakland for their Pav Bhaji Dosa! It’s extremely flavorful. I always get extra cheese on it which makes it yummy. The sambhar today was outstanding. Very fresh and authentic taste. The Karam Podi Idly was something new I tried. I was surprised by how soft it was. Lightly flavored and loved that it wasn’t too heavy. We also have Sambhar Vada had fresh Kadi patta that gave it very fresh flavor. The tomato chutney is a must have! It enhanced the flavor of everything. We called for extra and ate all of it! The service has always been so good. Everyone is very polite and I always feel at home here. A must visit restaurant.
