Beautiful temple, great architecture, serene surroundings. But can someone please tell the management to instruct the Archakas to be a bit more friendly? Some of them still think they live in India.

Beautiful temple. We have been there numerous times. There is a Swami Ramanuja statue in the main sannadhi which adds to the energy of the temple. The canteen is pretty good with tasty food at unbeatable price. Looking forward to visiting the temple again.

The temple has usually some decoration / festive celebration going on. The idols get grand dressing often. The members are very active I believe. Weekends are packed. The food on weekends are very good, usually have a long line and run out of certain items soon. The parking lot is clean with ample space available.

My family and I have been visiting this temple for 4 years now. Every Saturday morning no matter barring the first Saturday of the month (which is when we go to Flint Sri Kasi Viswanatha temple) we are at SV temple in Novi. The ambience is lovely, participating in the Suprabatham with other bhakts is an awesome start to our day!!

Well kept Hindu worship place. Lota of volunteers and good running kitchen. Extra activities for kids and adults. Crowded heavily on auspicious days and for festivities. You need to park a block away and walk on those days eventhough the temple has a spacious parking lot.

I love temples that are peaceful and feel the connection.Another good thing is prasad or prasadam. When we want to have traditional and simple south indian food, we prefer to eat prasad in the temple. Might as well pay in temple

Temple is in a decent location. I love going there every weekend. Peaceful and you feel devotional. You could volunteer in the canteen or during temple ceremonies like brahmotsavas. Temple has Balaji, Ganesha and Hanuman idols. Another highlight is that the temple has a nice cafeteria. They serve quality food on weekends. Overall one of the best temples in Michigan

Temple dedicated to Lord Venkateswara ( Lord Balaji ), Sridevi and Bhudevi. Prathishta of Lord Ganesh and Lord Hanuman are also there near dwaja stambha as upadevas. All shrines are in the upper level and in the lower level you can find cultural centre, cafeteria, rest room etc. There is a dress code in upper level. Cameras are not allowed in upper level. I liked the silence, neatness and ambiance maintained in the temple. Volunteer run canteen provide tasty, cheap and Satvik ( no onion and garlic) Indian food. Priests are well educated and friendly. Sa parivara Sahitha Lakshmi Venkateshaya Nama.

They should try keeping the temple open throughout the day. If thats not possible immediately, in the interim they should be open atleast until 1 pm. This is will enable people working in that area to visit the temple during their lunch time.
