Story

At the edge of Washington Square Park, an assortment of NYU students, South Asian expats, and downtown hipsters crowd around Thiru Kumar’s food cart waiting for their daily dosa, the vegetarian crêpe from South India. The grinning, thickly mustached Kumar works his small grill like a hyperactive D.J., pouring batter, spreading on curried potatoes, and sprinkling a crunchy dice of carrots and peppers (the Pondicherry masala dosa). When the batter is cooked through, Kumar folds it with an artist’s flair, effortlessly lifting the ethereally thin lentil-and-rice-flour wrapper from the grill, then chops it into sections and serves it with a gingery coconut chutney and a small tub of spicy lentil soup. The result: A delicious, ultrahealthy meal-on-the-street that’s well worth the wait. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld from New York Magazine

Be sure to follow him on social media to find out if he'll be open, then get there early. I was there just as he opened, such a kind man who appears to love what he does. The food was spectacular! Spicy, but good spicy. You can sit in Washington Park, people watch or watch some chess matches while eating fantastic food.
Delicious food & completely vegan. Get there early because the line forms & he can sell out fast. He can make it as mild or spicy as you like. Reasonably priced & great atmosphere to eat in the park. Owner is a very nice man & definitely skilled in what he does. Very highly recommend.
The owner is a very nice person. While I was waiting on the line I saw him feeding the homeless. But this is a food review. I will start by saying I don't particularly enjoy Indian food in general thus my score is going to be low. The dosa itself has a sour taste to it. The filling is mostly just potatoes and common salad veggies. The favor of it just a blend of Indian spices. Samosa reminds me of a empanada with potato filling. Overall the favor just doesn't suit my southern Chinese taste bud.
I can't comment on its authenticity but it was was FKING DELICIOUS.The owner is very friendly and quick with prepping the food! And yes, the line is certainly long, I actually waited for ~2.5 hours. But if you just need to buy the sides, such as samosa or vegan chicken leg, just go up to the cart!
I always get the Pondicherry extra spicy and with the coconut chutney. I love the flavors that come together. I'm not vegan but I sure love being able to eat something different. The Dosa Man is a sweet fella and always remembers what I ordered. Check him out. You will not be disappointed!!
Recommended dosa place in NYC.I loved the coconut chutney and podi combination of lentils such as split Bengal, black gram, sesame seeds, curry leaves I had ordered masala dosa and uttapam. I liked the uttapam more because of its authentic taste. Opens at 11:00 AM however I went at 10:30 AM since there is a long waiting queue. Food sometimes gets over by 2 PM
I went to NY for the first time in Oct/Nov 2021 for my birthday. Of all the places I wanted to try, I really wanted to try dosas from the Dosa man! He is located in Washington Square Park and serves dosas and other foods made FRESH on the cart. He only makes and sells vegetarian/ vegan foods. The wait was about 1-1.5 hours - I think because it was lunch time, but it was definitely well worth the wait. We ordered masala dosa, special Pondicherry, uttapam, samosa, veggie drumsticks and chai literally ordered everything on the menu. The masala dosa and the uttapam with the chutneys and sambar were SO delicious. The dosa was very crispy and the masala and sambar wasn't too spicy and very tasty. Thiru Kumar, the owner and cook, was very friendly, kind and sweet. Honestly, it was so wholesome to see him doing this for so many years, with the same menu, and always have lines because his food is delicious. His honest and kind personality was heart warming. Definitely highly recommend this spot even if the wait is long - it will not disappoint!
Going to the NYC Dosa man has been on my top things to do list for some time now. He has an amazing story and his food is great too. His Dosas are made to order so there will be a long line. He also doesn’t come every day he has a Twitter account that will post daily in the early morning if he’s cooking that day. I had his Masala Dosa and samosa. Whole thing was just $12. Tasted fresh, crisp and amazing. Well worth the wait.
Best dosas in the USA! Tried many dosas, and these have been the best ones! The line to order might be long, but he moves very fast! Was eager to try it, and it didn't disappoint. The price is fair, and you get enough food to stuff your mouth! Very nice man Thiru!
The stories are true. The man that runs this cart is a legend and must be protected at all costs. The Dosa was also very tasty. Will definitely be back for a friendly hello and a tasty treat. Dont just go for the Dosa, the Samosa was also outstanding.
