Minerva Tiffins

I am from Kakinada where pesarattu upma is an emotion and I was craving for it here in Toronto. Happened to try Minerva special pesarattu it was flavourful and my friend had masala dosa which was decent. Our favourite was the peanut chutney.nService is excellent. The staff were friendly and surprisingly the restaurant was spacious good enough for families to have a nice lunch/dinner.nnI have been ordering online from them but this was my first time to dine-in. Definitely going to visit again to try more items. The prices are affordable we ordered mirchi bajji, pesarattu, dosa, ginger lemon tea and masala buttermilk and it costed us around $40. Food quality and quantity is commendable.nI’d highly recommend this place for authentic Andhra taste!!

Visited them at noon of Sunday. Food was freshly cooked and delicious. Filter Coffee was great in taste. All items were close to taste served in India. Vada and ubattu could be fluffier. But they were top notch quality considering Canada. Would love to visit them again.

Let me start with the good part, the ghee idly was perfectly cooked and delicious. But the puri bhaji was bland and runny. The puris were also tasteless, all I could taste was maida and oil.nMost importantly I got a very poor and incompetent service. They were extremely slow and apologetic. I’d to wait 10 mins for a sugarcane juice only to find out 5 more mins later that the machine was not working.nNot satisfied

We recently visited Minerva Tiffins as my wife had just had her wisdom teeth taken out, and we needed to find some soft food. It was a great chance to introduce my cousin from LA to some dosa.nnThe portions were generous, and my daughter particularly enjoyed her cheese dosa because she got to eat with her hands, which she loved. The service was excellent and attentive throughout our meal. However, there was a small mix-up with my wife's order; they made her dosa spicy, which she can't handle. Thankfully, they quickly corrected it and remade her dosa without any fuss.nnDespite this minor hiccup, we were all very pleased with our meals. The food was tasty and satisfying, and the overall experience was positive. The staff's attentiveness and willingness to fix mistakes promptly were much appreciated.nnMinerva Tiffins provided us with a delightful meal and a comfortable dining experience, even under the circumstances of needing softer food for my wife. We will definitely be back for more, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy some delicious dosa and great service.

Spacious, clean, good service.nHowever I feel the food can be little more spicy just the way it is in South India.nSambhar bowl is just too small for my liking.nIdilly was yummy. Dosa was but above average, I was sad that they don’t have paper masala dosa.
