Our story

Started as a tea stall. Grown one dosa at a time.

Ambiswamy's was founded on 23rd October 1993, a Vijayadashami day, in a humble way as a tea stall. Two years on, in October 1995, it became Ambiswamy's Vegetarian Restaurant, and from there it expanded slowly, one kitchen at a time.

Ambiswamy's Fast Food was established in Cochin, and the overwhelming popularity of its brand and dishes has carried it since — today it's run by a team of competent, well-experienced professionals, and loved in homes, offices and school grounds alike, from a small child to their grandparents.
