Udupi Palace

A sister restaurant to Tiffin, this Indian establishment is more scaled down and not quite as elegant interior-wise. However, the food is just as tasty. Try the South Indian vegetarian cuisine that includes a range of options. Start off with the Sambar Vada, fried lentil donuts dipped in Sambar, or the Aloo Bonda, lentil dumplings topped with onion and potato. House specialty items include Malabar Adai, pancakes made with mixed lentils and vegetables, or the Pesarattu, moong dhal and rice crepe topped with onion and chilies. Since this place is about the food more than ambiance, it's a good place to get carry-out. You can also have your food delivered within a certain radius (no downtown delivery).
