This restaurant is a classic combination of old world charm and delicious, authentic South Indian cuisine. The weekend specials add to the charm by providing a twist with the addition of interesting options. Strongly recommended for cost-effective yet wonderful flavours of South Indian cuisine.

Manis lunch home has always been my favorite spot from my college days in Matunga.On a Sunday I had some work in Matunga so decided to visit Manis lunch home . I am visiting this restaurant after a gap of 4 years. I ordered Idli vada sambar while my wife ordered lemon rice.The idli vada sambar was very good compared to all the ones I tasted in & around Mumbai. It was very close to the taste in southern part of India. In my college days visit to this restaurant made me nostalgic.As usual even after 24 years they still maintain the restaurant neat & clean. They still serve unlimited sambar & chutney with the dishes.I loved their chutney more than their sambar.The taste of idli vada was same as that tasted four year/ even 24 years before.It was always difficult to get a place to sit inside the restaurant during weekends especially the peak hours. Today we went at an odd time of 11 am so we could comfortably sit inside the small restaurant.The lemon rice was served with kerala pappadam & chutney. It tasted good. The rice looked bulky similar to that used in Kerala.Overall it tasted good.Then although my stomach was full I wanted to taste their plain dosa to which I am a bigger fan.The dosa taste amazing good & kudos to the team for maintaining their standards over the years. I topped it with a nice filter coffee. The coffee was great & a must have so whenever you have food here pls keep space for the filter coffee. My wife is a tea lover so she ordered Tea. The teas was good as per her. I did not want to spoil my coffee taste???? so did not taste the tea.I love to keep the taste of filter coffee to stay in my mouth as long as possible.It was nice to recollect old memories sitting in this restaurant. It had made our day.Thanks to the management to keep the restaurant intact even after so many years. Hats off to the team.It is a must visit restaurant in Mumbai if you like authentic South Indian breakfast.

A small place serving good south indian food.
The menu is limited to few items as compared to a regular udupi joint, but the food is good, service is quick and not heavy on the pocket.
Being small in area, the seating is limited, but owing to the limited items on the menu, the turn around time is fast.

The sabudhana wada, masala dosa, neer dosa and coffee can be tried for a tummy fulfilling experience
