The Bottom Line

Kamat Vegetarian is a pure-vegetarian restaurant in Jumeirah Lake Towers with a wide Indian menu and some Chinese and fusion choices. It is most compelling for South Indian favourites: diners mention masala dosa, paper roast dosa, rava sada dosa and vada with sambar. The thali also receives repeated praise, including for its price point and dessert.

The strongest pattern is variety with useful dietary flexibility. One family has returned for years for quick service and dishes such as nawabi vegetable pulao and pav bhaji, while another reviewer says Jain preparation is possible. Royal pistachio cake, pani puri and dal makhni also appear as notable orders, though individual preferences vary.

There are some important inconsistencies. Dosas have been described as crisp, fresh and reliable in delivery, but other customers received one raw or found a masala dosa completely bland. Sambar is often rated average, and complaints about small portions, high prices and unhelpful responses also appear.

A spoon of butter was charged separately at AED 5 in one visit. First-timers should allow extra time to find the spot beneath the parking area, and should not count on mobile signal or Wi-Fi inside.
