Yes They serve Authentic South indian food . The shree Balaji cafe is situated at Tonk Road .The main thing about this place is perfect south Indian taste . You can see south Indian stars on the wall and the proper sitting . We tried Cheese Paneer Dosa , malga podi idli and the SBC special Dosa along with South indian Thali . The Dosa was good I tried malga podi for the second time and my experience was good with it . I loved the most was their sambhar and red chutney ( imli waali ,) I tried south Indian Thali for the first time( i liked it but but not loved it 🤭🤭). The main attraction from this place is their SBC special Dosa ( A gient dosa ) which was crispy af and the last South Indian tea a drink which is mandatory from this place . Though they needed little bit improvement in their services . But the food was awesome . Love to visit this place again 🤗🤗.

For a South Indian food lover , here it's a place where he/she can get tastier food at an affordable price as well as in various varieties too😋 every time I cannot stop myself from being here. The food , the customer services and even the atmosphere is too good . I think this place should be marketed at a best scale so as to get more and more customers and best reviews too.

Great place. Great taste. Staff is very kind and helpful, though a bit slow in service but it may be improved. Location is very easy to reach. I guess all of the things I've tried there are best. I definitely recommend you all to visit this cafe.

One of the best South indian cuisine in town, rich service, little place to dine in, with waiter dressed up in south indian attires i.e., lungi and kurta grabs tge attention , nice ambience, friendly staff, quality is excellent in each aspect and one of my favourites here are which i suggest is paneer cheese dosa and rawa masala dosa😋😋 overall nice experience.

deepak rajpurohit
An amazing destination for south indian food lovers . Food served in typical south Indian way with bana leaves and coconut chutney. Podi masala and cheese dosa are must try dishes . Podi is a mixed masala which looks like peri Peri but different in taste

I think this place is one of the most underrated place for South Indian Cuisine in Jaipur. It was my 5th visit and as always, they didn't disappoint us. I have tasted a huge variety of dishes here, from the humble idli sambhar to the sumptous south indian thali. Everything is just perfect. The price is moderate, quantity is sufficient, staff is courteous and place is clean. Special mention: The owner has appointed 'Divyangs' as waiters, a nice step towards equal opportunity and sel respect for them. Must haves: Any Masala Dosa, Ghee Podi Uttapam and Filter coffee. I star less for using Mozzarella Cheese in cheese items. Processed cheese would've been better (personal choice though).

Not the place if you looking for authentic South Indian, the ambience is also not great.<br/>The service is quick. The podi Idli was nice but the vada was very soft and the dosa was cold by the time it came to the table.<br/>Sambar was also not good chutney dint look that fresh.Filter Coffee was good.
Priyanka
We had one filter coffee and a balaji special family dosa.<br/>Dosa was crisp. Great indeed.<br/>Masala was also authentic.<br/>Coconut chutney could have been better (it was watery)<br/>Sambar wasn’t authentic.<br/>Tomato onion chutney was stale👎🏻<br/><br/>Filter coffee, though not exactly like madras kappii but still good enough.<br/><br/>Overall a good restaurant for south indian food in Jaipur

Veebeehunger_
Blessed with graciousness of Shree Triputi Balaji, the cafe serves best south indian food in area.<br/>Shree Balaji Cafe serves authentic south indian food enriched with real masalas, spices and flavours.<br/>Place is price worthy!<br/>Boom and Bang stuff, must recommended is their SBC special Dosa -- kind of giant, giant dosa, I mean really huge just at 255/- .<br/>* Tomato Onion Uttpam, Mogla Podai Idli, Rawa Masala Dosa are yet another must try option.<br/>* Not too much spacious, but you will definitely fall in love with the place.<br/>

One of the best place to have varieties of South Indian dishes.<br/>Taste of food is super awesome.<br/>Quality and quantity of food is highly maintained.<br/>Serves varieties of dosa.<br/>Prices are reasonable to afford.<br/>Also serves best quality of thalis.<br/>Highly recommend place to visit with your friends and family.<br/>
Utkarsh Jain
Don't go on the ambience of this place.. it's not a flashy one but decent enough. Their taste is like top notch but and that covers even more what ambience would cover. The highlight would be the the longest dosa also called as shree balaji special dosa..it is highly recommended. Overall everything we tasted was nice and like the taste buds just couldn't resist having less. Their coffee also is good option. Rest watch it in photos 😄🤩
Shreyash Dadhich
If you are searching for authentic South India food then you are at the right place.<br/><br/>Pro:<br/>Tasty Food<br/>Service<br/>Friendly staff<br/>Value for money<br/><br/>I had tried their Idli , dosa, Uttapam and coffee. Magla Podi Idli and Paneer Dosai are my favorite from their menu. Need the little improvement in the ambience. Although my overall experience was fantastic.

This place has average interior and ambience with variety of food dish in menu. <br/>I was looking for south indian food then visited here.<br/>Had Onion Rava Masala Dosa which was value for money.
Saumya Mathur
all the sambhar got spilt out of the container they used for packing. we recieved an empty container. the packing was poor.
Mansi Agrawal
Worst service ever. The staff is rude and the service is extremely poor. Would not recommend this to anyone. Would be my first and the last order from this place
Sanjay Pahuja
Even though there was something missing in the item, the service was good. The behavior of the staff was very polite and helpful. However, zomato's service wasn't good enough..there should be phone number for Zomato customer service instead of only chat service. It will make the feedback process convenient and less time consuming. Any action in this regard would be great. You can call me at 9819279103 for any discussion regarding this. Thank you.
Karishma
Shree balaji cafe, lal kothi, Jaipur<br/><br/>Mysore masala dosai - 8/10<br/>Spring dosai - 4/10<br/>Mix veg. Uttapam - 7/10<br/><br/>Food was ordered, packaging was good. Sambhar was a bit high on spice along with the red chutney, though coconut chutney taste just fine. Spring dosa was overcooked and the noddles inside it were too thick. It dint taste even average as per my taste.<br/><br/>Overall - 6/10
Sumit Kotriwal
A basic Cafe for South indian Food<br/><br/>Dosa are there main highlights<br/><br/>Dine in experience is good Service need little improvements<br/><br/>While Delivery is not that good<br/>Dosa get soggy and masala is also not that good in taste
Hemant Agarwal
At times this was my most favourite choice for south Indian food <br/><br/>I have visited this place for atleast 10 times and since last 2 two times I am very very disappointing with this place.<br/><br/>Service drastically degraded <br/>Food nothing taste like South Indian food <br/><br/>Will not visit this restaurant again in my life <br/><br/>According to price of dosa not value for money

Vivek Adithya Shreedharan
Horrible service. Very slow. The sabjis had excessive salt, jeera alooo was spoilt. Reluctant to replace or give alternative dish. Don't recommend an experiment here.
Sandeep Singh
Good service and good food
Rahul Sharma
sambhar was very tasty and not appropriate masala in fried idli<br/>
Vishwajit Bhopatkar
Very tasty and fulfilling food.
Amit Bokadia
One of the best south indian food i have ever had in north . I think so i cant get such a authentic south indian food in rajasthan . The best part for south people are they have south indian staff so that the south indian customer feel easy to communicate with the staff . Taste wise there are no words to describe about the taste . I can just say the real authentic taste of south indian food .
Saharukh Khan
yes<br/>

Victorjayaveeran
Served poor expired food
Neha Goel
Tasteless and stale food. Idlis were so hard. Chutney had no taste. We have ordered earlier also from this place but the quality now has drastically gone down. I am definitely not ordering from here any more.
Samriddh Bhatt
Visited SBC so many times for South Indian Cuisine and they never disappointed me in TASTE & FOOD QUALITY. Place is very small and ambience is also not so attractive but their strength is FOOD which covers all. The price of some item look bit expensive according to place. They have large number of variety in Dosa and other South Indian Cuisine.<br/><br/>My recommendations from the Menu are - <br/><br/>1. Spring Dosa<br/>2. Shezwan Dosa<br/>3. Pizza Dosa<br/>4. French Fries<br/>5. OTC Pizza<br/>6. Mysore Masala Dosa<br/>7. Onion Rawa Masala Dosa
Kalpana Naidu
When i ordered puliodare, they sent 'sambar added rice'. It is so sour that i can't even put it in my mouth. I had to throw away. That too, they are collecting exorbitant rates for even small things also.
Chetna Khandal
Shree balaji café located near laxmi mandir cinema in lalkothi.<br/>It's an authentic tamilan café. They serves high quality and reasonable prices food. It's a small place decorated with south indian stars photographs. It's a cool and decent place for any south indian food lover. Must try.<br/>I ordered chhole bhature 4/5<br/>South indian thali 4/5<br/>Cold coffee 3/5<br/>Ambiance 4.5 / 5<br/>Rating 4.5 / 5<br/>Service 4 / 5<br/>Value for money 4.5 / 5
Indira Varma
Food was excellent but it was deliverd cold
Sunny Bhatia
we have ordered Rava Onion Masala dosa... 1st thing is price is little high according to this kind of place..<br/>Dosa was good but nariyal was not that good, and sambar was too watered down like sour water infact eeewww ☹️ experience with tomato chutney n Sambar... Sambar was not even fresh...<br/><br/>nd jab owner ko review kia n bola you should take care of these things.. he said Karenge Karenge, like he dont care that customer is unsatisfied with quality<br/><br/>We are sure that we will never visit again...
Lokesh Sogarwal
quality of food is not good
Nancy
Ordered a rawa masala dosa for home delivery and found a strand of hair in the dosa. Awful experience!!! Disgusting. Will never order food from this place again.
Pinky Gandhi
Being away from home for a while was craving a good South Indian meal. Not very sure what Jaipur could offer, landed up here with low expectations ... just because it seemed to offer proper South Indian meal and not just Idli Dosa as many ‘South Indian’ places do. Must say was pleasantly surprised because every bit of the meal offered taste of proper South India. Lemon rice, Sambar, Rasam, Kootu, Poriyal, butter milk, apalam .. everything was on the spot. The only down was dessert (Kesri Bath) which was nowhere close. But all in all .. thank you for giving me the taste of home!
Kollatejeswararao
Taste is soooper but tax rate is very high
Gargi Sengupta
A safe option but slightly over-priced, in my opinion. Our latest order consisted of a plate of idlis, masala rava dosa, onion rava dosa, and filter coffee. I think they deliberately served lesser than two cups, something that you can't really pick on while ordering in. That was a bit of a damper becaus the coffee was pretty decent. I read somewhere, dosa textures depend on the cuisine style, Shree Balaji decidedly follows the Údupi style which is why they serve their dosas thick (and biiiggg!). I personally prefer the thin, small ones, I have been fed by Tamil friends. They also serve a sweetish tomato-bases soup with rasam's consistency other than the regular sambar and coconut chutney. It tastes really good! Overall, good stuff!
Divisha Chawla
worst totally not like this not I expected I made huge mistake to order from here I will surely not do that again 😡😡
Kollatejeswararao
Taste is very good but cost high
Sneha Songara
Pizza quality is very bad, secrets bad odour and not properly baked. I am not satisfied from other foods too,they were not properly cooked. It's better to order online south Indian food.
Abha Sharma
Good taste excellent service, keep it up !
Bharat Somani | The Food Snob
For 3 years now I have been hearing a lot about this place and the high quality of South Indian food they serve. So the SI in me finally woke up to demand the 'sapaad' the full meals.<br/><br/>Landed up there with full set of utensils and asked them if they parcel. They said yes. And went back to check with the chef. Should have known right then...<br/><br/>Anyways after waiting for 1 hr we finally got our food packed cos it was made hot only for us! Should have known when one had to check if food was available in a hotel, that it is not ready!<br/><br/>In the meanwhile as we waited I saw them re heat vada and idly in microwave for other customers. Rava dosas that went out didn't even have the rava soaked enough... instant mix of rava and splatter on the tava! I pity the guys who ordered it. Not knowing my fate an hour from it.<br/><br/>Of course I saw all of my food being made... and on questioning why are you packing 'kadi' That is gujrati dish and not South Indian I was told it is 'kootu'. And that they keep changing their kootu everyday. Today it is this. I knew what I was going to eat. Another bastardised version of SI food!<br/><br/>The Sambhar was sweet.. Karnataka style.. (being devil's advocate to justify the 205 bucks they charged for each plate. I bought 4 of those). The supposed kootu had SI type vada cos pakodi would have made it completely guju. Poriyal was the saving grace. Kesri was almost raw sooji with sweetner and colour.<br/><br/>Some people I know swear by their filter kappi (coffee) but I swear spending another 150 bucks per plate at MI rd SI speciality restaurant is a much cheaper bargain on your senses! Never again.
Barkha Gupta | FoodFascinator
SHREE BALAJI CAFE<br/><br/>Located near Lakshmi Mandir Cinema. A small cafe serving one of the best South Indian food in a city like Jaipur.<br/>What we tried:<br/><br/>1. Coconut dosa (3/5)<br/>Ample amount of freshly grated coconut all over inside the dosa served with sambhar, coconut chutney and tomato chutney.<br/><br/>2. Chaach (4/5)<br/>Their chaach is not like just another chaach that we use to get. It's tempered with sarson, curry leaves and magical spices.<br/><br/>3. Aplam (3.5/5)<br/>Taste was pretty good.<br/><br/>4. Rasam (4/5)<br/>One of the best rasam I ever had in Jaipur.<br/><br/>Overall,<br/>Ambience: 2.5/5<br/>Taste: 3/5<br/>Value for money: 3.5/5<br/>Service: 3.5/5<br/><br/>
Lipi Bhavesh
Authentic Tamilian food ! Love this place. Reasonable and simply themed seating. Their ghee idli and fliter coffee is mouth watering and even the service is great. Going to visit again :)
Mudita | FoodieBird
First visit to this lil place but so happily surprised. <br/>Feels like a South Indian dhaba. <br/>Very hearty and fresh feeling dosas. The coconut and tomato chutneys were really nice. The sambhar was the hero of the show. So tangy and fresh. <br/>We ordered a plain dosa , Mysore masala dosa , masala dosa and a special vegetable uttapam. <br/>Everything came on our table pretty quick. <br/>The dosas are very nominally priced. <br/><br/>Rating this place 4.5/5 coz of the absence of green chutney. <br/><br/>Highly recommend this place for South Indian cravings !
Aviral Srivastava
Good food....Excellent service food that I ordered was on time.Just like to say please write the name of the dish on the top of each packaging box was Really satisfied with the quantity & Was happy with extra chutney and sambhar.
Naidukalpana Vuyyuru
very worst. Not delivering proper food. When I ordered rasam rice, they have put more tamarind in it so that I could not take it with even one byte of rice. Also, when i ordered biryani, they got simply mix of vegetables with rice. Do they call it biryani? Very worst food. When I ordered bajji, they brought pakodi. Very worst service.
Deepak Khandelwal
Its a good place for South Indian food. We hve ordered idli-sambhar, fried idli, dosa. All items are tasty. Delivery is on time. You can try if you wish to taste South Indian food.
Parth Chaudhary
Comfortable ambience,dedicated staff and above all the best south indian restaurant in jaipur according to my opinion <br/>Thumbs up! 👌<br/>I recommend a vist to this restaurant if you are a fan of south indian cuisine.
Simran
Very poor food quality... Ordered chole bhature.. It was full of oil. Taste less... . Very bad experience. I heard it's good for South Indian food but I didn't tried that. Atleast chole bhature one should never order from here
Sohini Das
Lovly food! What else do I want! Love theis cold coffe and south indian coffee. Also try mixed veg utthapam and paobhaji dosa! Awaome. I have never been there but we order food for lunch in the office a lot.

SHIVAM GUPTA
Ordered aloo paratha <br/>Good in taste<br/>Hope for next order soon <br/>Timely service within 40 minutes good to see. <br/>Curd quality is not upto the mark need some change
NAYAN GAURAV
Ambience not so good, seating not comfortable, small place with few tables and chairs.<br/><br/>Food quality ok, it is said that South Indian food is famous in this restaurant however I didn't liked the taste much.<br/><br/>Service is very slow. Had to wait for 40 min. just for a masaala dosa. <br/><br/>Glass and plates need to be wiped before use as not very clean. Doubt on hygiene in kitchen as well.
Bidisha Bose
Amazing food..<br/>The Dosa and idli are something to die for ..<br/>South Indian has got a synonym..It is Balaji cafe<br/>Affordably priced..super yummy..And the service is also great..<br/>Must visit..Highly recommended
Rishabh
Finding authentic South Indian food is very hard in Jaipur. I visited this small food joint in Lal Kothi named, Shree Balaji Cafe.<br/><br/>I was recommemded this place by my friend for nice filter coffee.<br/><br/>Here is my review:<br/><br/>Ambience: (5/5) Minimalistic yet eye catchy interior with photos of south indian movie stars was crazy !!!<br/><br/>The place was very clean :)<br/><br/>Staff & Service: (5/5) Our order was taken and served very fast. Staff was very kind.<br/><br/>Food: I ordered Mysore Masala Dausa and had one of the best dausa of Jaipur.<br/><br/>Nariyal Chutney was very yummy :) Very very tasty :)<br/><br/>I do not admire filter coffee that much but it was really nice here.<br/><br/>MUST TRY IF YOU ARE IN JAIPUR.
Sanju
Ambiance 👍 . <br/>Proactive staff .Rawa Dosa stuffed well with authentic Shamber /coconut chutney / tomato chutney .cheese chilly tost aswome .south Indian filter coffee 👌.<br/>value for money.
Shriya Ojha
A small South Indian cafe located near laxmi mandir theatre.<br/>The staff was very friendly but service is slow.<br/>Food served here is really tasty with authentic South Indian taste.
Siddharth Pincha
The best south indian food in jaipur. Yes "The Best" i have been in south for 15 years before shfiting to Jaipur and i know how does a sambhar and chutney tastes like. And they have the proper chef from Tamil Nadu.. <br/><br/>1. Idli & Dosa <br/>Both idli and dosa are very nicely made and propely served with Coconut and Tamatar chutney with sambhar<br/><br/>2. Thali<br/>Their south indian thali is a Trp of thr resturant. In 170 Rs u get 4 poori 2 vegetables rice lemon rice sambar rasam sweet chaach dahi which is really worth its money. If u r a die hard south indian food lover do try this thali<br/><br/>3. North indian and other foods<br/>They also serve north indian and fast foods which are equally good <br/><br/>The staff are really well behaved. The kitchen is an open one with glass covering A customer can see whats being made and how.. the owners are really amazing people who ask attend each and every customer's of thiers.. <br/><br/>
Anish Khandelwal
"Trid the south indian thali, and it was good not that much great.. Interior and ambience was ok,nees to improve on interior side. <br/>A good visit "
Dr. Kartik Mehta
This South Indian cafe is located on the Lakshmi Mandir Terhaya by the side of Lakshmi Mandir Cinema Hall. <br/><br/>The ambience is just great, the seating arrangement is not that much and there are chances that place gets a little congested during rush hours. The parking space is good. They have wide variety of food but one should just try their South Indian meals for which they quite famous in the neighbouring areas. <br/><br/>I ordered a Mysore Masala dosa and Sambhar Idli the idlis were a little dry but the dosa was just awesome. <br/><br/>This place is pretty light on your pocket one should visit this place if he/she loves South Indian food.
Himanshu Jain
As a dosa lover, I visited the place to try some authentic Dosai from South India. I ordered for Rawa masala dosai. Though they took a long time to prepare the dosa, but dosa was tasty. The sambhar and chatni were also good. This place itself smells u of any South Indian cafe. Ambience is fine. As the owners and cooks of this place are from South India. Overall I rate this place as<br/>Food :4/5<br/>Ambience :4/5<br/>Service :3.5/5<br/>Value for money :4/5
Yash Kochhar
I love south indian food and always wants to try new place to get that authentic taste of it. The place is small but good. They also have a big poster of rajnikant sir over there. Ordered rawa masala dosai(3/5) and ghee podai masala dosa..(4/5). Food was average.
Jay Goyani
finally i went to shree balaji cafe to full fill my stomach and i found my favorite dish South India thali ..and its amazing test and worth full...
Shalakha Gupta
It's a bit late review.... We went dere for a brunch. Didn't try much variety as our initial experience was not so good.<br/>Had onion rava dosa and fried idli. Dosa was oily nd masala in it had no taste. I am a big fan of ny kind of idli. Bt after eating hard nd dry fried idli I got so disappointed. Dere was no curry leaves or mustard seeds.... I think idli was 1 or 2 days old. Seriously I tortured my stomach after having dat so called fried idli. <br/>Service was really very slow.<br/>Ambiance was nice. Bt for me taste is always a priority. I can't comprise wid it. <br/>

It's a small place with good south Indian food. We ordered a Rawa Dosa and Masala Ghee Roast. Both are equally good. The Masala Ghee Roast is nice and crispy and the Masala filling is in good amount and it is chatpata. <br/>Rawa Dosa has a light and fluffy dosa texture.<br/>It's one of the good places for south Indian in Jaipur. <br/>Value for Money : Yes :-)

Small place but good food. Being south indian I felt the quality didn't match the ones in TN but considering it is North India, it was great. The service was also good...

This is a small place but the quality of the food is simply superb. I don't like much of south indian but this is the place where I ate too much. Excellent service n decent place to enjoy your meal. I recommend it.

Tired and completely broken after my shooting practice session. While coming back I saw this outlet was dark at 6:30 pm(I mean they haven't switched on the light).i was with my kids and even they were Hungary. <br/>We ordered quite a few things : please refer the bills.<br/>Quality of food was excellent, ambience was pretty descent. Try there South Indian filter coffee and onion rawa masala.<br/>Price is descent.<br/>Must visit and good food

Couple of times I took order (take away) <br/>But seriously, the dedication to south Indian taste is missing.<br/>Sambhar didn't gave me the taste I had in other places. <br/>Vada, remained raw from inside. Same with idli. <br/>Rather MTR ready mix gives the better taste.<br/>All in all, please maintain the authenticity of south.

Highly disappointed this time. We were very happy with this place as recently as 3 weeks back. The food is stale, service is slow, staff are not courteous. We ordered onion rava masala dosa, vada and ghee masala dosa. Only onion rava dosa was good. Inside of the vada was half cooked and sour. Ghee masala dosa was sour and tasted stale. Many people cancelled the orders as the service was too slow but the staff dint even request them to reconsider cancelling the order. Have decided never to return to this place. one of the good south Indian restaurant bites the dust. In brief this place is best avoided.....

Stale food and slow delivery. They have made fun of South Indian cuisine. Have complained to the management but the quality hasn't improved over weeks.

As a South Indian.. This place serves actual South Indian food... Not powered coconut chutney.. Decent food for its cost.. Little bit costly.. Very comfortable seating with air conditioning.. Seems like hygienic place.. Has parking area.. Don't order North Indian food or foreign snacks here.. Overall satisfied with the service nd quality of food

WARNING: Do not ask for home-delivery. The owner makes lame excuses that his guy is not here and he will call back. Then he never calls. This has happened multiple times with me. But yes, if you want to visit, please read the review below. <br/><br/>Shree Balaji Cafe is a great place to enjoy the authentic South Indian food experience. Period. <br/><br/>But we need more information that that, don't we? Let's go then...<br/><br/>The cafe is located in Lal Kothi(area densely populated with students), right when you turn towards Sahkar Marg from Tonk Road. Looks pretty cool from outside, though the place is quite small. The cafe's look and feel reminds you again and again that it would be a foolish thing to try North Indian food here. And hence, I did not...<br/><br/>The interiors are very simple. Inside you will also find the pictures of Amma (Jayalalitha), Kamal Hasan and Rajni Kanth, from which I guessed that the owner must be Tamil. Kitchen is right there next to seating area, and even the entire seating area does not have more than 20-25 seats. The service was pretty quick and as soon as I entered, the waiter (wearing a lungi) was there to attend.<br/><br/>Starting with the classic South Indian coffee which they serve in a cup and you are supposed to pour that in saucer and then drink, for that traditional experience, yes it was yummy. I think they had used Nescafe coffee, but somehow the taste felt very rich. <br/><br/>Food? Ah I loved the food here. I had South Indian Thali and it could not have been any matter. And yes, eating the whole Thali could be a bit of challenge. They serve four Puri, two variety of rice (including curd rice), rasam, two vegetables, curd, pickle and a gulab jamun. I specially loved the feel of vegetables and rasam. The spices used were apt and in right amounts. <br/><br/>Even their Masala Dosa is a good option. I liked their tomato chutney. Sambhar and coconut chutney were decent, not too great, not too bad. <br/><br/>The prices are not too high and therefore, given the kind of food they have, I think this place is worth a visit.

Shree Balaji Cafe; flanked by the HDFC Bank and Laxmi Mandir Cinema can be easily missed. It is further obsured by the fleet of parked vehicles during the day. I happened to discover this petite wonder rather serendipitiously. With umpteen chairs clustered in a small area my first impression was mixed. I didnt know what i was in for...(i was mentally prepared for an average meal and decided to keep the critic in me under control)<br/>However one look at the menu and my spirits were lifted instantly.It looked promising with an assortment of basic South Indian fare - idlis, dosas, uttapams interspersed with dosas with a contemporary twist for those willing to experiment. There is also a South Indian thali and some popular North Indian and continental snacks and deserts. I ended up ordering a generous spread consisting of podi idli, rasam vada, onion rava dosa and mysore masala dosa.<br/>While i waited for my food i could'nt help but notice the prints which adorned the wall. The artwork, conscientiously chosen lays out the essence and heart of South India before us making one smile and overawed all at once.<br/>I was beginning to relax and enjoy the atmosphere when my food arrived.<br/>And lo behold !!!<br/>My food came piping hot, the idlis, dosas et al served on verdant banana leaves so typical of a traditional South Indian joint. In my opinion the benchmark of dexterity in South Indian cuisine is the way they do the sambhar, rasam, chutneys and the rava dosa and Shree Balaji cafe scores a perfect 10 for their preparations. It was a sheer gastronomical delight to dine at this humble cafe. I learnt that not just the team but also the ingredients and vegetables are sourced all the way from Chennai. It speaks highly of their committment to serve nothing but authenthic South Indian fare. I must add that this is the only place in Jaipur where i found drum sticks in sambhar just like one would in an udipi joint down south and upon inquiry i found that the drumsticks too come from Chennai !!!<br/>The onion -rava dosa was crisp and a perfect shade of golden, the best in town. Likewise for the mysore masala dosa. I wrapped up my meal with coffee which came in the quintessentially South Indian style - piping hot in a small steel glass and steel saucer !! It cannot get more authentic than this !!!<br/>My dining experience was further enhanced by the impeccable service. The serveurs were eager and enthusiastic; ever ready to answer all my questions.<br/><br/>It was with much trepidation that i entered this cafe initially only to be surprised and mesmerized by the authentic flavours and taste. This easy to miss cafe is infact NOT TO BE MISSED !!<br/>Kudos to Shree Balaji Cafe<br/><br/>
