Sagar reviews
Never again. Food was very bland. Staff attitude was rude. I asked for something different as my mother-in-law doesn't eat onion or garlic, but the staff were not willing to go and put this request to the chef.
by smita, 03 Dec 2007Never disappointing. Delicious food, friendly staff and a good location - close to bus, tube and lots of parking spaces round the back in the evening.
by luv_a_duck (4 reviews), 10 Oct 2007Absolutely stunning! They have the most amazing dosas - my palette was left tingling with flavours.
by lorraines2, 21 Aug 2007Bad manager. Rude as hell. Gave us burnt food and refused to acknowledge that there was a problem. Replaced the meal with a cold dosa full of oil. Will not go back.
by Mr Shah, 26 Dec 2006Sagar is genuine south Indian food at its best. My favourite restaurant in London.
by Anonymous, 27 Nov 2006Matches the best of the veg restaurants from when I lived in Bangalore as an Ex-pat.
I'm not vegetarian, but I believe that South Indian veg chefs care more about clean fresh tastes. Full of south Indian faces, which is always a good sign.
My golden rule No.1 when I lived in India was: never look at the menu or price, look at who and how many people are eating. If it is full of locals, you really can eat the salad, drink the water -and the food will be fantastic.
Rule No.2 is if possible, eat at cheaper restaurants, as they use less ghee. Rule No. 3 is try not to order western food anywhere, as it is likely to be much less fresh. Sagar really makes me nostalgic and want to go back.
This restaurant is excellent - delicious enough to tempt anyone to vegetarianism.
by Anonymous, 11 Nov 2005Excellent Southern Indian vegetarian food with friendly service. The best of the 10 udupi style places I have tried in Europe and North America. Moderately priced. Subtle flavors. Superb textures. Highly recommended.
by aversetospam, 02 Oct 2005I ate here with some vegetarian friends recently and was pleasantly surprised - delicious Indian food and excellent value for money. Service was efficient and very friendly.
Look forward to visiting for a 2nd time and I shall remember not to turn my nose up when invited to vegetarian restaurants in future.
Fantastic vegetarian food which tastes great and is cheap. Came upon the place by chance but would recommend it to anyone who likes good food.
by Anonymous, 16 Sep 2004Another addition to the growing array of South Indian restaurants in London. This place takes its food seriously, with loads of interesting, subtle flavours, putting it a cut above some of the South Indian places on Drummond Street and the Tooting high road. It's pretty cheap, too.
