Annalakshmi Oakville - South Indian Vegetarian Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
Dear owner, kindly schedule more staff members. They are doing a tremendous job but not you! You have amazing food & staff members but service was slow as only One server was serving 10 tables ( almost 40 guests ). Meghanathan was amazing and he was running like a tornado on the floor. From seating the guests, taking orders, serving and cleaning the tables, everything done with a smile. Coming to food, we tried 4 different kinds of dosas. All were exceptionally good, served with sambhar and three kinds of chutneys. Dosas were crisp & hot. I am coming back again very soon hoping i get to see more servers on the floor. This 5 star is only for the staff members, they are doing great.
Delicious dosas, I can't wait to eat here again. The staff was friendly, helpful and fast. The restaurant is well kept, very clean and has a sink outside the washrooms which is convenient to wash your hands to get started on your meal.
The food was great and the servers were genuinely nice, although they could benefit from some training regarding common practices such as clearing the table after ordering food, not leaving water jugs on empty tables and placing the cutlery by the side of the plate. The wall decor is decent, however the lighting and the music don’t really do justice to the place. It feels dark and stuffy, in despite of having plenty of natural light which is covered by blinds as if it wasn’t a family friendly establishment. I would definitely come back, this place could be a lot better though.
Would give them a rating!!! Annalakshmi in Oaksville is a hidden gem for anyone craving authentic South Indian cuisine. From the moment you step inside, the ambience transports you straight to South India with its traditional decor and warm atmosphere. The food is outstanding, with every dish bursting with rich, authentic flavors that are hard to find elsewhere. The servers are incredibly responsive and attentive, ensuring that each guest feels welcomed and taken care of. Special mentions to Jo!! Their patience and dedication to providing excellent service enhance the dining experience even more. Whether you're a fan of dosas, idlis, or any other South Indian delicacies, Annalakshmi is the place to be. Highly recommended!
We visited Annalakshmi for the first time and were thoroughly impressed. The service was great - the staff were friendly, and made me feel very welcome. We ordered the masala dosa, and it did not disappoint! It was perfectly crispy, flavorful, and satisfying. I will definitely be back to try more dishes. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and excellent service!
Good mini Sambhar idle. Sambhar was little more water but was better than other places.
Annalakshmi in Oakville is a true gem! The food was an absolute explosion of flavour. We sampled several of their dosas, and my Madras masala dosa was particularly outstanding – perfectly crisp with a wonderfully spiced filling. The appetizers were equally impressive. The Paneer Chettinad was rich and aromatic, while the Gobi 65 was simply scrumptious – the perfect blend of spice and texture. The staff were incredibly friendly and always ready to help with a smile. They went above and beyond to make my niece's birthday special, setting up the cake and making her feel celebrated. A special shout-out to Abhishek, who was particularly attentive and made our evening even more enjoyable. Overall, Annalakshmi offers a good dining experience. The combination of delicious and flavourful food, a pleasant ambience, and excellent value makes it a must-visit. We left feeling completely satisfied and are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended!
Annalakshmi in Oakville stands as a remarkable testament to the authenticity and richness of South Indian cuisine. The dishes are consistently fresh, served piping hot, and exude a depth of flavor that speaks volumes of traditional culinary mastery. The sambar and chutneys, in particular, are exquisite—aromatic, perfectly spiced, and a true homage to their Tamil roots. A special commendation is due to Bala from Madurai, whose attentiveness and warmth shone through despite a bustling evening crowd. His genuine hospitality elevated the dining experience, reflecting the essence of South Indian culture. Highly recommended for connoisseurs of authentic regional fare.
