Please be patient, this is a long review. Let me start off saying I’m usually not one to write reviews, but I just had to share my negative experience today. Meanwhile, please don’t come here with your families, the food will actually make you sick. I am writing a serious review because I am concerned for people’s health. I will never step into their establishment and will tell everyone I know not to eat at this restaurant ever. I need the restaurant owner to know how badly they are running their restaurant. I am attaching proof of purchase for legitimacy.Me, my sister and my dad came out for a nice lunch to eat some biriyani yesterday (Sat ~ 11:35) This was probably the worst mistake ever because I’m still suffering from the health consequences the next day. At the iPad kiosk, the biriyanis we wanted to order were showing as sold out. We asked the only girl working at the store from the register if the biriyanis were already sold out at 11:30? This was weird. She said whatever food is showing on the iPad is what’s available. We started looking at the menu for other foods. But after 5 mins, she came back and told us to check the iPad again to order for what we inquired about. So we changed our order and ordered the biriyanis. After we got the food, both biriyanis were smelling just a little weird, like reheated old food. There was an obvious smell, or least it didn’t smell like it was made recently.That should have been my first warning but I didn’t think too much out of it and we started eating. But we couldn’t finish even one of the ordered dishes, we just lost our appetite. So we went straight home to save the food to eat later. My stomach was uneasy so I didn’t immediately eat the food at home. We put the food in the fridge for max 1 hour and when I took both biriyanis out and reheated them, it had such a bad stench, it made me gag. The food had actually went bad, and I had to throw it the trash outside my house.Not even 30 mins after that, all three of my family members, including myself, threw up and had an upset stomach for rest of the evening. None of us had dinner, we were so uneasy and felt sick. I ended up waking three times during the night because I had an upset stomach, my stomach was burning and I felt like throwing up even more. Still now, this morning when I’m writing this review, my stomach burns so bad and I feel sick. I am considering going to urgent care if I don’t feel better in a few hours.I know this was the only food to cause these symptoms because we didn’t have anything before the restaurant and didn’t eat anything after the restaurant. I’m extremely disappointed in the exploitation of the owners by serving the customer not just bad food, but unsafe food. So overall, we paid $85 dollars to end up throwing the food away and suffering from pain.Summarized Review:Apollo Fish Fry - (so much Red 40 food coloring that it’s bound to cause stomach problems)Butter Chicken Masala —- (it was fine)Garlic Naan - (it was rubbery, but fine in the spiel of things)Thalappakatti Goat Biryani - (served us biriyani that was on the verge of spoiling)Natu Kodi Chicken Biryani — (served us biriyani that was on the verge of spoiling)

This place is an excellent choice for enjoying Indian cuisine. The goat and chicken biryani are particularly outstanding, and the fast service adds to the positive dining experience.

It was an amazing food experience. As a native Chennaite, this place had great Onion Rava Dosa and vada. We came in late night, but the service team was very helpful to us. Will stop by again in our next trip!

Food was not worth it. One of the worst uttapams I’ve ever had. I ordered a butter masala dosa along with a onion rava dosa. The onion was so bad- it was thinner than I normally get elsewhere. They do have more chutneys that they serve compared to others, including a peanut base chutney. Not saying it’s good, just that it’s served. Wouldn’t go here again. Waste of money. They do have high chairs for kids but even they told us where to get it from- pick it up ourselves from where they store it- not good service.

Absolutely terrible place. We waited for 40 minutes. Were told that the food would be here but we never got it. Ended up leaving. You should just avoid this place at all costs.

This is cloud kitchen. Food was good in taste. Prices are reasonable. Ordered dosa and was nice, fresh and crispy. Taking out one star as it doesn’t look clean as normal restaurant. May be because kitchen is open and visible. They need to remove trash cans from the dine area.Vegetarian options: Dosa

Bad customer service! Ordered my food and took less then one bite to try. Food was way to spicy for me. Asked manager to either switch out for something else or refund my money and he refused. Will not be coming back.

Very rude behaviour of serving staff. Strange behaviour of taking Tips before even serving the food and then pushing guests out of the restaurant without any service. Please be prepared to be insulted if you ever wish to go to the
