Each dosa in the menu has its own delectable flavour, and coupled with sweet sambar and chutney, the meals are irresistable.

Short for idli dosa, ID is one of the most beloved restaurants in the city. Apart from offering delicious dosas, ID also offers some well curated dosas in the form of unique preparations and allowing customers to choose their own toppings and fillings.
Served with equally delicious chutneys, the dosas here are a true delight. Murugan Idli certainly makes some of the best idlis in the city, and the dish even finds a spot in the name of the restaurant.
