RT Dosa Indian Restaurant

RT Dosa is genuinely an unusual restaurant for this corner of the south-east — a South Indian and Sri Lankan specialist on The Hill in old Northfleet, established in 2013 and one of very few kitchens of this orientation in the wider DA postcode. The menu is built around dosas — the thin fermented-batter pancakes traditionally folded around spiced fillings — alongside fluffy idli, vada, uttapam and the rice-and-dal sambar plates that anchor a South Indian breakfast or working-lunch order. Beyond the South Indian list the kitchen runs a Sri Lankan section: Chettinad chicken, kottu roti (the chopped, stir-fried roti dish that is one of Sri Lanka's defining street foods) and the various devilled meat preparations. Vegetarian dishes are not a side section but the spine of the menu, which marks the restaurant out among the local competition. Service runs both sit-down and takeaway, with phone orders for collection and delivery through the aggregators. Reviewer feedback across Tripadvisor and the delivery platforms is consistently strong on authenticity and value, and the restaurant is a destination as much as a local for diners coming in from Gravesend and the wider Kent borough.
