The food is delicious. The people behind the counter are kind, patient and attentive. Karnataka style cooking is different from other states in southern India. Great to have delicious variety to choose from. Go try it. Meal type: Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

In the south Indian desert that is Oakland it is very refreshing to see a stalwart take root in Berkeley. Everything Idly Express touches is savory gold. If you haven't spent time in Madras this will give you a good simulation - the music, the heavy smell of filter coffee in the air, the coffee itself....it all adds towards the small hustling and bustling vegetarian "hotels" one finds in Madras. The food is unapologetically spicy and that's good. It keeps the flavors and the textures close the source. The soaked idlis were decadent as were the crunchy vadas. The korma had that sharpness to it and the benne dosa's life force ran all over my palm as I devoured it like a mild-mannered Bakasura at the local village. The place is small and very functional. It's not date night material unless your date is an adventurous eater whose idea of Indian food is all the stereotypical north indian fare. Then, this place is the beginning of an adventure. Beware, travel with a bottle of lassi, for the road is spicy ahead. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Vegetarian offerings: Menu is all vegetarian
