Food was quite good. Good flavours coming through. They gently modulated the level of spice for our young accompanying guest. Staff was friendly & amenable to our special requests & questions regarding the house specialties. I can see myself coming back.

The food is bursting with rich, authentic flavors that transport you straight to South India. From the perfectly spiced Chettinad curries to the crispy dosas & fluffy idlis, every dish is made with care & packed with bold, traditional taste.

The service is warm & welcoming, & the staff are happy to explain dishes or help with recommendations if you're new to South Indian cuisine.

They also offer several Vegan options.

Dosa was testy but sambhar & chatni was not good 😏

The Chicken 65 biryani I ordered was disappointing. The chicken was extremely dry, burnt, charred & overcooked. While I could tolerate the old chicken being served, the smell of the chicken indicated poor-quality oil, making it inedible.

I urge the owner to pay closer attention to the quality of the chicken served in the biryani. Restaurants have very little margin for error; it doesn't matter if you served a good meal to the same customer 100 times-one bad meal is enough to lose them forever. This is especially true during times of inflation & cut-throat competition in the industry.

I wish you all the best, but please double-check your quality standards. Your food has been excellent in the past, which is why I am giving this a 4-star rating to prevent it from affecting your overall score, despite my 1-star experience this time. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
