    I ordered online for pick up; I asked waitress about a dish that i didn’t see on menu; I was given very helpful information. My food was wrapped perfect and extremely delicious. I wasn’t able to get picture as it didn’t last long. Everything I ordered was 10/10.

    If you are looking for fresh, bold flavors, this is a great find. Food quality is execellent. I visited on a Saturday evening and was pleased to be seated immediately. Food Highlights: Chennai Chilli Chicken: Perfectly prepared; crispy on the outside while remaining tender and flavorful with a nice spicy kick. Paniyaram: A standout dish and a must-order. They achieved a beautiful contrast between the crispy exterior and soft interior, complemented well by the three accompanying chutneys. Guntur Chicken Curry: The flavor was authentic and the spice level was impressive, though I would have preferred a bit more gravy to balance the dish. Naan: Fresh, soft, and clearly made to order. Kizhi chicken parotta: Spice level is decent and dish was properly cooked in banana leaf. Service & Ambiance: While the service was impressive given they were clearly understaffed that night, a quick fix for the shaky tables would greatly improve the dining comfort. While many restaurants lose focus when expanding, this original branch continues to deliver the same top-tier quality as the new location.

    The food tastes like it was prepared in advance and frozen. It seems like they do mass production and then freeze the food. The lamb meat was not fresh and appeared to be made from Costco frozen meat rather than freshly sourced lamb. Overall, it lacked freshness and felt more like reheated food than a freshly cooked meal.

    The hospitality is the worst. The food is bad. Wouldn’t recommend this place at all. Totally overpriced. They don’t have good vents in the kitchen cos all the smoke from the kitchen came into the dining area.

    I am sad to rate this place so low but there is no other option. I really used to like their Food but I must say that their taste, quality and hygiene have gone down. This is from my last few times at this place. First, they operate with extremely low staff! There was just ONE person to answer calls, to sit a customer, to take orders, to serve food and for takeaway orders. I had to keep waiting for the person to get free to give me a table. I was very upset but also felt sorry for the only guy running around for everything. Now, lets come to the food part! The Biryani I order from here is sometimes so old that the rice becomes dry and hard like it is before cooking. Clearly implying that it has been very long since it was cooked and been reheated multiple times. Taste was bad and also gave me really bad stomach ache. The Buffet here was equally bad! Naan was so dry that it was rock hard, not edible. They had Bhatura which was again dry and hard, and it even had the chole missing, really? The basic idly was left in the open to again dry out and had a very had dry layer on top, again signifying the poor management and the bad quality of their food. These are just some examples, the food was really awful in every aspect. The restaurant interior is also very poorly maintained and has a very dull vibe. Overall I would not recommend going here and definitely wouldn't recommend eating here, you can get seriously sick and these people would still not give a damn! There is still some potential for this place to improve, but I didn't see any change in more than a year and now I have lost hope.
