What People Are Saying
from Google"We ordered Idli sambhar, Goat Sukka and Shrimp Sukka. Dessert was Gulab Jamun and Kesari. Everything was delicious and scrumptious. Generous portions. Be prepared for an authentic spicy experience. Highly recommend the place."
"As a college student, I’m so glad Amma’s Kitchen opened right next to campus! The portions were generous, and they even gave plenty of boxes to pack up our leftovers. My friend and I ordered the chicken dinner and the mutton biriyani - both were so fresh, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. Also very affordable which makes everything so much better. We enjoyed our meals and will definitely be coming back to try more dishes :)"
