Cafe Chennai - Reservar uma mesa

Came here for the first time for a take away. Ordered Sambhar, which was not bad but not great either, Beef Kottu Paratha which is just average again, and Mutton Chukka. Well, Mutton Chukka is supposed to be dry-roast kind of dish but this was wet, a bit of gravy and the disappointing thing was, it smelled! I mean, Indian food is supposed to be full of spices, ESPECIALLY South Indian food, but this looks almost like a middle-eastern dish... very less on spice and definitely less ginger-garlic paste and that's why it smelled. We had to throw the whole lot because the smell put us off greatly. Other than that, we really think this place would be good for the vegetarian stuff, like the veg Thali or Dosas. If you want Indian meat dish, there are other better Indian restaurants elsewhere. I'm giving it 3 stars because the ambiance was good, the decor and the choice of music were soothing. You could come with friends, order some drinks and appetisers, have some vegetarian main meals and you'd walk out a happy person.

I do enjoy going to Chennai, their food has definitely improved since the last owners - back then the food I wanted to be medium/hot was more tending towards sweet, but they have their hotness back again! That is such a bonus. There is one waitress who is quite surly, but I think it is common to find at least one surly member of staff in a small business. I'm happy to return there and recommend it if you generally enjoy Indian food. I don't mind that the environs have seen better days, but I do wish they would fix the occasional broken chair - There really are plenty of less good places out there, and if you go into it knowing it is just a comfy family business with above average food you won't be disappointed! Also, high marks for those of the staff who are totally awesome and know how to crack a smile and be welcoming!
