We went here for dinner and were pleasantly surprised that there was no wait time—we were seated right away. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming us with warm smiles and great service throughout the meal.

We ordered the paneer chilli and the Mysore masala dosa, both of which were absolutely delicious. The standout for us was the variety of chutneys served with the dosa—each one had a unique flavor and added so much to the dish.

Overall, it was a great dining experience, and I’d definitely love to come back and try more items from their menu.

Amazing. Best we’ve found in the valley and we are PICKY!!! Our favorite Indian restaurant closed down in 2020 and we’ve been on the hunt for another amazing one and finally found it. So so so good! Warning… there spicy is SPICY! We got a 5 and an 8 … next time we will get a 5/6. Butter chicken is excellent, sweet and spicy

When people ask me, what is my favorite Indian restaurant in Phoenix, I have to say when it comes to food quality, dietary restrictions, knowledgeable wait staff, and customer service, Vayal’s Indian Kitchen is Top 3 in the Valley!

We liked it so much we used them to cater for our son’s engagement!

Our extended family includes restrictions about GF Vegan, Vegetarian options, no seed oil, Jain (no onion or Garlic) which often makes going out to dinner not worth the hassle. However, we’ve consistently been able to have all these conflicting needs met at this location.

Ghee roasted Masala Dosa is a favorite as is the Kadai Curry! Today we had the Chole, Dry fried Paneer, Ghee Roasted Plain Dosa and Ghee Roasted Masala Dosa. All were Superb!

This was our first time to Vayals Indian kitchen. We were very satisfied.. from the moment we entered we were greeted by the delightful aromas of spices and flavor, we were kindly greeted by the staff, we were kindly greeted upon every dish being served! We had the Veg samosas, vegetable biryani, garlic naan, and masala dosa.. Even with the no meat options, every dish was exquisite! So delicious! The flavors are so authentic! They serve a very decent portion for the prices. We both ate and were full and even had some left over. The service was impeccable! We definitely will be returning!! Thank you so much!

Vayal Restaurant is a fantastic spot for South Indian cuisine in Phoenix, offering the most authentic experience I’ve found in the area so far! The food is exceptional, with a wide variety of dishes to suit every palate. I highly recommend the options—vada sambar, Kerala parotta, chicken curry, and chicken biriyani are absolute must-tries, each packed with incredible flavors.

The service is top-notch, and the hospitality truly stands out, making you feel warmly welcomed. The interiors are stylish and comfortable, with clean restrooms adding to the pleasant experience. Parking is conveniently available right out front, and the pricing is very reasonable for the quality. Vayal is a must-visit for anyone craving delicious South Indian food with great vibes!
