Most authentic Indian food in HK (in my humble opinion).
In Wing On Plaza (sort of a kind of C-grade 90s style mini-mall) next to Kowloon Shangri La. Decor of Woodlands is "down to earth", menus are paper and also act as place mats. Emphasis on South Indian vegetarian cuisine with some North Indian dishes (paneer, alu, etc) thrown in. Vegan friendly. None of the dosas (a thin rice crepe) will disappoint. Get Mysore-style if you like spicy, masala if you want something more filling. Mixed uttapam (see photo, served with sambar and coconut chutney), a thick mixed rice and dal-batter pancake stuffed with tomato, onions, coconut and a few green chillis is a delight. Served with sambar, a staple South Indian vegetable stew and coconut chutney. Skip the idly (a cake-ish thing made of rice and lentil batter), though vada (a vegetarian fritter) is often fresh and delicious. Masala tea a nice (and culturally authentic) way to finish the meal. No meat served here but you probably won't miss it too much.
No reservations needed. Credit cards accepted.
HKD 50-120/person.
UG 16-17, 2/F (from street level only 1 escalator ride up)

That looks like a nice cheese pizza.
