Four Decades on the Same Corner

Since the early 1980s, Dosa Delight has fed Jackson Heights from the corner of 73rd Street and 37th Avenue — purely vegetarian, always welcoming.

I had an absolutely delightful experience at Dosa Delight in Jackson Heights. This charming and beloved restaurant serves up some of the most authentic and flavorful South Indian cuisine in the area, with its Dosas being the star of the show. The variety of Dosas and vegetarian dishes are cooked with fresh ingredients and packed with rich, satisfying flavors that make every bite memorable.

We live around the corner and love Dosa delight!! We usually get one of the rava dosa's and thali platter - all so so good and flavorful! They recently renovated the inside as well making it feel much more elevated. Highly recommend and a fun experience to bring friends!

The manager was so friendly. I wanted to let him know personally that this was the best Mango Lassi I’ve ever had in my life!! Highly recommend and will be coming back again!

We ordered the Rava Masala Dosa and the Chili Paneer Dosa. We also shared a mango lassi. Both Dosas were delicious and very filling! The Dosas are light and crispy, clearly made with experience and skill. I will definitely be back to try other things in the future.

Outstanding cuisine, with dishes traditionally cooked and served. Excellent service by Princy. Perfect for vegetarians as the menu is 100% vegetarian.
