udupi is a far cry from authentic south indian cuisine. what really puts you off is the non existent service. if you are lucky to get a waiter, they are inattentive, slow and rude. its almost as if they dont want to work. the quality of the food is not great. i disagree that people in India are inefficient. there are several restaurants in India where people are very attentive, and the food is good. Places like udupi in Indianapolis, in fact give a very distorted view of what Indian restaurants are like. Americans would probably end up believing that Indian restaurants or Indians in India are inhospitable and unfriendly after going to udupi. There is absolutely no reason why sub standard service, quality and taste should be marketed as Indian whether as home or abroad.\r
Pros: parking
