    The vegetarian buffet may be the best thing in my life. If you are a fan of south Indian cuisine, Udupi is the perfect stop for a quick, delicious lunch in the Tempe/Scottsdale border.

    Vegetarian lunch buffet is good, typically 3-4 main dishes, often a paneer dish, with some sides and desserts. Also includes a dosa.

    All the curries are grand, but the appetizers are especially tasty, including the gigantic "dosa" (potato-filled crepe) and the "pakora" (fried cheese stick). Don't eat breakfast. Come hungry.

    Best mom & Pop, vegetarian, southern Indian food in Phoenix (even if it is in Scottsdale/Tempe!) Go there do that! Get the bread that blows up really big! HUGE and yummy!

    Everytime I've tried to go here they've been closed. The open sign will even be on but the doors are locked. I'm over it. I'll never go back.
