We planned a team dinner and chose Peppino’s Dosa and Indian Cuisine, a pure vegetarian restaurant known for its diverse Indian flavors. While the restaurant offers a cozy and warm ambiance upon entry, the only challenge was parking, as there is no dedicated parking space. You’ll need to find street parking nearby, which might take a little effort.

Dine-In Experience

We visited on a Monday night, which happens to be their Dosa Night special—a great deal where you can try 5 different dosa varieties for just $15. However, there’s a no-sharing and no takeout policy with this offer, so it’s best enjoyed by individuals dining in.

Here’s what we ordered:

• Mysore Masala Dosa • Masala Dosa • Mirchi Bhaji • Paneer Pakoda • Dahi Puri • Vegetable Biryani

All the dishes were well-prepared and nicely presented. The veg biryani had a unique presentation, served inside a stuffed roti, which was visually appealing. While the quality and quantity were satisfying, nothing really stood out as exceptional.

To wrap up the dinner, we ordered tea, but unfortunately, the quality was a bit of a letdown. It could have been more flavorful to complement the meal.

Delivery Experience – Day 2

The next day, I placed a delivery order to explore more of their offerings. This time, the experience was much better. I tried:

• Chana Bhatura • Miloni Tarkari with Peshawari Naan • Lime Soda

The Chana Bhatura was perfect—spot-on with spice, flavor, and portion size. They also included onions and pickle, which elevated the taste even further. The Miloni Tarkari, a creamy mixed-vegetable curry, paired wonderfully with the soft Peshawari naan. The overall delivery experience was delightful, with both quality and quantity meeting expectations.

Final Thoughts

Overall, Peppino’s Dosa and Indian Cuisine offers a good vegetarian dining experience. While some dishes lacked a wow factor during our dine-in visit, the delivery experience was excellent. I’d definitely recommend this place to vegetarians or anyone looking to try vegetarian cuisine. The variety, quality, and generous portions make it worth visiting at least once.

Just keep in mind that parking might require some effort. If you go on Dosa Night, it’s a great deal, but make sure to plan accordingly since there’s no sharing or...

Peppino's has expanded into a section serving non-veg food and it is called Kebab and Curry. We decided to give it a try with some friends a couple of nights ago. Room is decent sized; tables are spaced out. The wait staff is nice but not as sharp and quick to respond to customer needs as one expects. Hopefully, that will improved with time. Food: For starters, We ordered the kebab platter and something called Gulati kebab (probably trying a take on the more famous galouti kebab). For mains we ordered 3 types of breads, the lamb korma, Jaipuri bhindi and the Kerala fish curry and for take out, we got their butter chicken. We also got their kulfi & falooda. The kebabs were a major disappointment. For a place named "kebab..", we expected sizzling, tender and fresh pieces of kebabs. What came was none of this. It felt more like re-heated stuff! The bhindi subzi, the breads, the Keral fish curry and the butter chicken were very good. As for the lamb korma, the sauce was very good but the lamb pieces needed to be more tender (instead, they felt chewy). The kulfi tasted ok (but sadly, it had bits of ice crystals.). Overall, I would say, this place has potential but the restaurant needs to up its game (especially the kebabs) if it wants to distinguish itself from the average, run of the mill, Indian restaurants.

Had dinner her last Wed. I ordered the Wed, Punjabi special (sarson saag, maki roti, raita, lassi & sweet) and my partner ordered the regular masala dosa. My Punjabi special was excellent. The saag was tasty and not greasy and the maki rotis had the right level of crispness. The masala dosa was good (though we asked for the filling on the side but the dosa still arrived with the filling inside!). The sambar was a cross between a tomato dal and sambar and a bit watery. The chutney was diluted and didn't taste much like coconut chutney. The restaurant really needs to improve its sambar and chutney so it comes closer to an authentic S Indian cafe. Or perhaps, they should stick to offering Punjabi dishes (as the chef is probably from the Punjab). The wait staff were warm...
