Looking for a spot serving the best dosa in Doha or some decent vegetarian food in Qatar? Oh, bless your heart, you might want to reconsider.
എത്രയും Local Food… വല്ലാത്ത അവസ്ഥ
After a mildly luxurious walk through Pearl Qatar, the land of yachts and overpriced lattes, we decided it was time for some light, satisfying vegetarian food. I mean, what could possibly go wrong?
We had our hearts set on Dosa House Old Airport, but plot twist: it was closed. Of course, that should’ve been our sign. But no, our hunger for regret was stronger than our instincts, so we decided to reroute to their Matar Qadeem branch. The tragedy began right there.
🚗 Poll 1:
🍽️ First Impressions: Dosa House Matar Qadeem
Walking into Dosa House Matar Qadeem felt like walking into a hostage situation. The smell was a mixture of regret and missed opportunities. We were starving, so we proceeded, hoping for a miracle—or at least some decent food.
Instead, we were greeted by the menu… which was the most photogenic part of the entire restaurant. I should’ve just taken a proper picture, disappointed that I just wanted to leave from there and take photos. Spoiler alert: It wasn’t worth it.
🍴 Poll 2:
🥄 What We Ordered (And Why We Should’ve Just Gone to McDonald’s)
Here’s what we actually put in our mouths:
- Masala Dosa – Basic. Boring. Beige. Just like your last first date.
- Ghee Roast – A greasier version of disappointment, if that’s even possible.
- Set Dosa (2) – Rubbery frisbees with burnt edges. Michelin-star material if you’re asking how not to cook.
- 1 Friend – Smart enough to not eat anything. He had a premonition.
🥄 Poll 3:
🍽️ Tasting the Dosas: A Journey Through Flavorless Despair
Let’s talk taste. Or, rather, let’s talk about the lack of taste. The Masala Dosa and Ghee Roast were barely edible. Not bad enough to spit out, but bland enough to make you question your life choices.
Poll 4:
🍞 Set Dosa: A True Tragedy on a Plate
The Set Dosa arrived looking like it had gone through a terrible breakup—charred on the edges, rubbery in the middle, and leaving you emotionally drained. If you’re into eating rubber bands for fun, this is your place.
Poll 5:
💸 Dosa House Matar Qadeem: Paying for Regret
Here’s the thing: They charged us full price for food that could only be described as “meh.” You know, when you think it’s going to be a high point of your day, but it’s just… not.
If it had been cheaper, I might’ve been slightly less bitter. But when you’re charging the same as a gourmet meal, I expect at least a hint of flavor.
Poll 6:
🚘 Matar Qadeem Parking: The Real Adventure
Let’s talk parking. Matar Qadeem isn’t just a place; it’s a test of your faith. You don’t park; you pray for a spot. If you find one, it’s practically a divine miracle.
Poll 7:
🧑🍳 Ambience: Where’s the Vibe?
If you thought Dosa House would have any sort of ambiance, think again. The place was quieter than a library at 3 a.m., and the sizzle of sadness was the only music.
Poll 8:
🧑🍳 Customer Service: Meh at Best
The service was… well, it was service. The staff didn’t make us feel special, but they also didn’t ruin our lives. It was more like they were just there, like extras in a bad film. Zero personality, zero enthusiasm.
Poll 9:
🥦 Why Does Anyone Eat Here?
It’s a mystery. Maybe it’s because vegetarian options in Qatar are few and far between, so people just settle for anything with “dosa” in the name. But really, are we THAT desperate?

💬 Let’s Share Dosa Trauma
Look, if Dosa House Matar Qadeem is what counts as a go-to dosa spot, we need to have a serious talk about Indian vegetarian restaurants in Qatar. Raise the bar, folks. At least clean the tawa.
If you’ve been to a place that actually serves good dosa, drop your recommendations below so we can all stop wasting our time.
Until next time, this was your friendly neighborhood dosa detective—signing off with a stomach full of sadness and a blog full of unfiltered truths.
