OUR HISTORY
Our chefs originate from Udupi, a small town located in the coastal region of the Western Ghats in Karnataka, approximately 60 km from Bangalore. There, a famous temple houses an idol of Lord Krishna richly adorned in jewels. The town is a knowledge centre for authentic South Indian cuisine. Udupi chefs are renowned for their traditional, South Indian vegetarian cooking.
ABOUT UDUPI
Udupi cuisine is a style of South Indian vegetarian cooking that originates from the temple town of Udupi in coastal Karnataka. It is known for its use of fresh coconut, lentils, rice and a carefully balanced blend of spices — and crucially, many traditional Udupi dishes are prepared without onion or garlic, in keeping with the town's religious traditions. Staples include the masala dosa, idli, vada, sambar and a range of chutneys. At Sagar, we stay true to these roots — our chefs are from Udupi, and the food on your plate reflects generations of culinary tradition.

Sagar is breaking new ground in South Indian vegetarian and vegan cuisine, many of which are new to the country.
We like to make our guests feel extraordinarily special, striving to exceed each and every customer’s expectation to make their dining experience with us a truly memorable one.

"HIDDEN GEM"
"I was searching for an Indian restaurant nearby, and I’m so glad I found Sagar! It’s a hidden gem close to Covent Garden with absolutely delicious South Indian vegetarian food. Everything is flavorful, light, and authentic—from the dosa to the sambar. This place deserves way more visibility. Easily one of the best Indian vegetarian restaurants in London!"
RAMAN DEEP
"HIGHLY RECOMMEND"
"This is the second time I've been and it certainly won't be the last! It's a delightful vegetarian and vegan restaurant, it's easy to see which dishes are vegetarian and which are vegan. The food is incredible and these pictures don't do it justice. Everything was amazing, the staff are always very friendly and helpful and I'd highly recommend eating here"
BETHANY MELLOR
"ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING"
"Sagar's food is absolutely outstanding.
I can comfortably say that this is the best Indian food I've had since that trip! The space is very clean and comfortable, and the menu is expansive. We had curry, paratha, naan, dosa, and biryani. All of the dishes were excellent, and great for sharing as always."
