Near Matunga station there are many south India food joints But I personally love this place. This is my go to place to south Indian food. The service is super fast and efficient, I really liked that they don't have a menu card everything is written on the walls of the place.
I usually order Podi idli and Pineapple Sheera which taste so good.
Podi idli is idli along with some special chutney over it not the normal coconut chutney but a different kind of chutney.
Pineapple sheera is my really amazing they actually use pineapple and not the essence.
The prices here are not so pocket friendly but it's totally worth it
Mysore Sada dosa and Sabudana Wada's are awesome.
Best south Indian restaurant in mumbai for affordable prices. Each and everything in this restaurant is lipsmacking. My special recommendation here is rava dosa, neer dosa, mysore masala dosa, batata vada, coffee and various types of idlis specially podi idli.
It's located nearby matunga central station in east side. Always crowded, you will have to wait in que, they don't reserve tables, first come first serve basis.
In the Tamil enclave of King’s Circle, 80-year-old Ram Ashraya is beloved by southern families for its spectacular dosas, idli (spongy, round, fermented rice cake) and uttapa (pancake with toppings). Filter coffee is strong and flavoursome. The menu changes daily. It’s just outside Matunga Rd train station’s east exit and draws Mumbaikars of all persuasions.
Must to go once in your lifetime
Enjoy the crowd and have amazing breakfast while in Matunga
Mysore masala dosa , pineapple sheera was best

Ramashray Hotel in Matunga is a classic gem! I
savored the Podi Idli, Rava Dosa, Filter Coffee, Idli Wada, and Rasam Idli—each dish was a delight. The place is popular, so expect a 15-20 minute wait, especially on weekends. Don't miss the heavenly Mysore Pak—it's a must-try sweet. While parking can be a bit challenging, the restaurant's proximity to Matunga Station makes it convenient to reach.
Overall, Ramashray offers a fantastic South Indian culinary experience, and the wait is well worth it for the delicious spread they serve.
One of the best places to have authentic South Indian food in Matunga. They have a set of food items on the menu but they all are amazing. Fresh and delicious food at an affordable price. The coconut chutney is fresh and refreshing. Sambar is also on point. Do visit if you are near Matunga. Just walking distance from the Matunga station.
We had podi idli, idli, maysore dosa, rasam vada, pineapple Shira and kaju pineapple sweet all of it was delicious specially the podi idli.
Dal vada was too crisp.
Its quite a famous outlet so you might have to stand in line.
No dedicated parking its also very close to the matunga railway station so finding parking space could be difficult.
One of the oldest restaurants serving authentic South Indian food. A wide selection of options. I've been here previously, and the genuineness has not changed!
We had coffee, Medu Wada, Idli Wada, and Idli Sambar.
Extremely affordable costs for hot, fresh portions. Although it's always crowded, waiting doesn't take too long.
Furthermore, it's not far from Matunga Railway Station. Please come by!
1. Totally like the Dosa, Vada, Filter Coffee and Tea
2. Queue is expected so take margin of 15 minutes minimum while visiting
3. Old, rustic vibes really great....
4. I always visit whenever m in Mumbai
Amazing place for South Indian food lovers. We have tried some of their dishes and all were very good. Benne Masala Dosa is a must-try, the taste of white butter was really yum. Apart from this, Medu Vada, Neer Dosa, Banglore Masala Dosa, Coffee, Lassi and a variety of sweets (especially Mysore Pak) all were exceptional.
One of the best south Indian restaurant...
I recently dined at the South Indian restaurant, and it was an absolute culinary delight! The menu offered a diverse range of authentic South Indian dishes that left my taste buds in awe.
To start, the dosas were outstanding – crispy on the outside and perfectly soft on the inside. The coconut chutney and sambar that accompanied them were bursting with flavor. The service was impeccable, and the ambiance had a cozy, inviting feel. I highly recommend this South Indian restaurant for anyone seeking an authentic and memorable culinary experience.

Matunga, my haven for South Indian cravings, recently led me to the legendary Ram Ashraya. Stepping inside felt like a trip back in time, with the walls adorned with chalk-drawn menus and old-school wooden chairs whispering tales of countless satisfied palates. The air buzzed with a familiar, comforting warmth, a testament to this restaurant's enduring charm.
My craving for authenticity led me to the classic Medu Vada, and oh, what a revelation it was! The crispy exterior gave way to a fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth interior, bursting with the subtle flavors of lentils. Each bite was a perfect symphony of texture and taste, a true ode to Udipi cuisine.
And what better accompaniment to a Vada than a steaming cup of filter coffee? Ram Ashraya's brew was strong, aromatic, and, I confess, a tad too sweet for my liking. But here's the beauty – the staff, as sweet and welcoming as the coffee itself, readily adjusted the sweetness to my preference. This simple gesture spoke volumes about their dedication to customer satisfaction.
As I savored my coffee, I observed a delightful scene. Guests, young and old, families and friends, all united by the love for Ram Ashraya's timeless flavors. The smiles, the chatter, the aroma – it was a symphony of pure culinary joy.
Verdict: 5 out of 5 stars!
