The Dosa Brothers

Nice food cart right on top of the Montgomery BART station. It's a completely vegetarian place and their dosas are very well made. There is no place to sit around the cart but there are rooftops with public Access in the Wells Fargo building across the street. The price is on the higher side for the quantity but it surely has the novelty factor element.

The Dosa Brothers picks up one of the most famous Indian Street Snacks and makes it available on Market Street San Francisco. Just for doing this, I offer my Love and Gratitude to the Brothers! The service is blazing fast, and the staff is cool! On to the Dosas themselves, ai had the Mix Dosa, which mixes the Aloo (Potato) serving with the Paneer (Cheese) serving, insider the Dosa bread. I would rate the overall Dosa as 3/5, or maybe lesser, compared to eating an authentic Dosa in a nice Indian place. But to be offered this as a snack, as you walk hungrily through Market Street, the Dosa hits the spot and does what it does - offers flavor and spice, and fills you up!

Dosa Brothers is a lunch-time food truck chain that dishes out Indian rice pancakes with vegetarian toppings: paneer (cottage cheese, $13), potato (traditional breakfast in Southern India, also called as 'masala' dosa $10) or a mix dosa (this is the best deal, $2 less at $11 and gives you a taste of both paneer and potato). You can also top it off with spring salad mix (makes it healthier and tastes decent, $1 for topping). They serve it along-side coconut chutney (may have cilantro, check if you have dishwasher mouth). I am docking one star for the price. If they can get the price down to $10 (before-tip) that would make it 5 star worthy. You can order online, or stand in a line (like I did), and got my order ready in around 10 minutes. I saw others also get Mango Lassi ($4) and Ginger Chai ($3). They also serve a healthy Indian lentil porridge-like gruel (usually delicious, I did not get to try it), called Kitch-e-ree ($7). Friendly staff. They seemed happy to be there and provide recommendations. Dosa was delicious, albeit slightly expensive compared to other lunch options. Note: I tried the location at the intersection of Montgomery and Market Streets (steps away from Montgomery Bart). Tip: Order online and avoid the line. Ask for extra chutney ($1) it's better than the free Sriracha.

I don’t like spicy 🌶 food, but this is a nice place. The dosa with milk cheese is not spicy at all. It’s 500+ calories and 20+g protein - great numbers for a vegetarian meal! It costs $13, which is pricey for a street food. But it tastes very nice. I will come again. The cashier lady is friendly and nice too.
