Mysore Darshini - Web site:

Mysore Darshini, located in Brandon Gate Plaza, will be closing its doors on July 16, 2022. Known for offering some of the city’s finest Mysore-style Dosa and South Indian dishes, this is your last opportunity to visit and savor their delightful cuisine. Be sure to stop by to say goodbye!

I was delighted to overhear the chef speaking kindly in Kannada to an elderly man and his son. It filled me with joy to hear my mother tongue in Canada! Initially, I was hesitant about the menu items, given my past experiences at various places—some of which were quite disappointing. But I decided to try the Mosaru Vada, a dark roasted Masala Dosa inspired by Vidyarthi Bhavan in Bangalore, along with some filter coffee. My daughter-in-law ordered the spicy Pudi Paper Dosa, while my son went for the Masala Vada, Uddin Vada, and Sambhar. The highlight of the meal was definitely the Mosaru Vada, which you could also call Dahi Vada. It was spicy and topped with beaten curd and crispy boondi, and the first bite transported me back to Bangalore. The Dosa, coffee, Masala Vada, and Uddin Vada all met our expectations. I was really impressed with the fantastic flavors they offered. The menu features a variety of rice dishes, chapati, and other typical South Indian specialties. I highly recommend Mysore Darshini for an authentic South Indian Mysore taste, far away from our homeland. For all Indians in Ontario, be sure to visit—it's an experience you won’t want to miss, with finger-licking dishes!

I grew up in South India, where my mom cooked incredible food. My appreciation for different cuisines expanded over time, but for me, nothing compares to South Indian cuisine—it's my comfort food. South India boasts at least four states, each with its own unique culinary styles, creating a paradise for the palate. In the Greater Toronto Area, Mysore Darshini serves the best South Indian food I've tasted; it feels as authentic as I can remember. We enjoyed dishes like uddin vada, idly with sambar, masala dosa, kesari bath, and of course, the iconic filter coffee.

I do love their signature double roast Masala Dosa but not very impressed with anything else as much. However very sweet staff and good service.Response to Mysore Darshini: Talk about being Savage for the heck of it. Lol! I definitely can search for a better restaurant good sir- because the options are endless. But the attitude sure can cost you customers and I’m glad you choose to display it at a public forum.

One of the best and most authentic udupi tasting food ever tasted in Canada. We were a party of 7 who visited today for the first time to this warm place and ordered a variety of of vegetarian dosas and appetizers. Mr. Shailu personally greeted us and made us comfortable. The wait staff were two very pleasing and courteous ladies. Everything exceeded our expectations by far. There are a plenty of good south Indian restaurants in the GTA and our expectations were already set at a high level and Mr. Shailu's place easily broke all our previous taste benchmarks. The service felt a little slow at first but after we discovered that everything is fresh and made to order (can you believe that coffee and mango lassi is also made fresh to order? , i would rather say it was a super fast service and we started feeling like home. Give this place a try, Mysore masala dosa(spicy , masala poori, coffee and dark roast dosa(in picture , you will fall in love with this restaurant.
