My wife and I recently visited the Samudra restaurant in Jackson Heights with high hopes for an enjoyable dining experience. Unfortunately, our visit turned out to be a complete letdown, leaving us frustrated and dissatisfied. Upon arriving at the restaurant, we were promptly seated but immediately noticed a lack of attentiveness from the staff. We placed our food order and were made to wait for nearly an hour, with no indication as to why our order was taking so long. When we inquired about the delay, the elderly man who appeared to be the owner brushed us off with empty promises, repeatedly claiming that our food would be ready in just 5 minutes. It became evident that his reassurances wer...
I am sorry very disappointed today. We ordered two maslaa dosa to go. And I mentioned to add chilies to the masala dhosa. But they forgot. Also gave us only 1 container of coconut chutney. Usually when we order in some other place they even provide extra chutneys. But here they just gave us one container. Secondly we didn't get tomato chutney. Common, if you are not having one chutney for today which you didn't give us. Atleast make your heart big enough to give extra coconut chutney. Why to act so cheap !! We are not ordering from this place again. Another thing to mention the dhosa was very soggy !! It would be nice if you learn how to pack!! We work for hotel industry !! This is not expe...
Had the most wonderful experience today at Samudhra. Went in just for a cup of masala tea, but decided to ordered a Masala dosa to go. The owners and staff were so welcoming and friendly and the atmosphere was relaxing, so I decided to enjoy my meal there instead. The food was incredible. The dosa and aloo were perfectly cooked with good flavor and the coconut chutney and accompanying lentil soup were amazing. The owner also offered me a complimentary serving of rice pudding, which was also delicious. The food and service here is excellent. I highly recommend. If you are the owner, thank you for making what could’ve been an ordinary take out experience, a lovely sit down experience. I didn’t...
This restaurant is one of my favorites. The flavors are clear and distinct, and I totally recommend the combination platters, which allow you to discover new things. A very homey, simple, and warm setting; you feel like you're eating in a family kitchen. Moreover, the staff is wonderfully sweet to everyone. We travel for hours to get here in fact, we used to drive more than a hundred miles. Especially on return trips, we've started to feel like it's a delicious place that we know and love.

Dosa taste was good but went cold and very chewy. Lost its crispness . Upma was terrible. Sambar is a disgrace to South Indian food. Upma had no flavor. No salt No nuts no spice no cilantro garnish. . It felt like I was eating gooey bland dough. Sorry owners and I was hungry.!!!! Not the most pleasant and happy restaurant thus did a take out. Bad idea to take out. .. dosa loses its crispness and crunchy taste. Food overall is average and ambiance is a zero !!!! 1 star.
As a South Indian aficionado, this place passes with flying colors. The idli is soft and fluffy, the vadas large and crisp, and amazing tangy rasam. They also have gunpowder and harder to find items like puliogare (tamarind rice). A host of vegetable dishes are also available, most North Indian but some quite Southern but I have yet to try these. The service was excellent and the owners are real sweet they are happy to accommodate your requests.
First time trying this restaurant and I just tell you hands down the best best dosas in entire queens!!!! We had the paneer dosa, mysoore dosa and spinach dosa!!! It’s a full vegetarian restaurant. Will definitely be coming back for more.
large selection of south and north food. really nice comfort restaurant in jackson heights. I love the channa phishori! would definitely recommend this place and will be back. I'm here twice and I guess how warm and friendly they are.
