Dosa Royale

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Brooklyn’s 258 DeKalb Ave, Dosa Royale brings the rich, aromatic flavors of South Indian cuisine to New York City with authenticity and warmth. This Indian restaurant offers an inviting atmosphere where guests can experience traditional delicacies that evoke the comforting essence of home-cooked meals, coupled with the vibrant spirit of the neighborhood.

At Dosa Royale, the star of the menu is undoubtedly the array of expertly crafted dosas. From the Mixed Veggie Uttapam, a thick, savory pancake dotted with fresh onion, tomato, green chili, and seasonal vegetables, to the Rava Masala Dosa—a semolina-based delicacy infused with cashews, red onion, curry leaves, roasted cumin, fresh coriander, and curried potato—the dosa creations explode with layered textures and flavors. The dosas are generously sized, with a delicate balance of crispness and softness, although some diners have wished for a slightly crispier edge for that perfect bite. Each dosa is served with an array of vibrant chutneys and comforting sambar, inviting you to savor a symphony of tastes with every mouthful.

Beyond dosas, Dosa Royale excels with a tempting selection of curries that are both hearty and nuanced. Signature dishes such as the Chicken 65, a crispy, spiced southern fried chicken starter, and the creamy, velvety Chicken Curry showcase the kitchen’s mastery over traditional Indian spices and cooking techniques. Vegetarians will delight in the wholesome Avial, a coconut milk curry featuring a medley of fresh vegetables, or the robust Eggplant Kulambu simmered in a uniquely nutty curry made from sesame, peanuts, coconut, and cashews.

Dosa Royale’s menu also gently lures you toward sweet endings with desserts like the subtly fragrant Saffron Semiya Payasam, a vermicelli pudding scented with saffron and cardamom, or the indulgently soft Gulab Jamon, sweet cheese dumplings soaked in syrup. These desserts provide a perfect close to the rich and spicy flavors that define the meal.

The dining experience here is distinguished not only by the food but by the friendly and attentive service. Regular patrons praise the staff’s warmth and the genuine hospitality that make each visit feel like being welcomed into a close-knit community. Whether you’re indulging in a hearty lunch of Chicken Korma with fluffy basmati rice and fresh naan, or ordering for delivery on a cozy night in, the generous portions and careful preparation ensure satisfaction and joy.

Clients like Pearl Sapphire express deep appreciation for Dosa Royale’s “stomach friendly spiced meals” that remind them of home, while Stephanie Diaz has discovered what might be the best butter chicken in NYC right here. Tim Krol’s experience highlights the excellent flavors and speedy service, making Dosa Royale a new neighborhood favorite for him despite years nearby. There are candid notes from Mo Da Prophet praising the generous portions and heartwarming flavors, even suggesting slight room for enhancement in dosa crispiness and sambar seasoning. Thanmai Chowdary recommends the Chicken 65 as a must-try starter, noting the vibrant flavors and beautifully presented dishes that beckon true food lovers.

In essence, Dosa Royale is a celebration of South Indian culinary tradition, brought to life with skill, warmth, and a commitment to quality. It’s a place where every dish tells a story of spices, textures, and heartfelt cooking—perfect for both dedicated foodies and anyone seeking a soul-satisfying meal that feels like home amid the city buzz.
