Finally a place where we get typical South Indian food. The best dosa’s in town. A good ambience and friendly service. Affordable price too.
Went to this place for dinner..the service was extremely poor, had to repeat several times for them to bring extra sambar by the time it arrived we had finished our meal. They had some button service on the tables which is useless as no one still attends. Even when we told them the service was bad they didn’t even acknowledge there mistake. Very disappointed experience wouldn’t be going to Chennai dosa anytime soon again. The buffet area was extremely messy food everywhere no common decency to keep it clean.. Overall review of my experience was the place was extremely dirty, poor service, below average food. Wouldn’t recommend anyone to go here.
A very simple place with good South Indian cuisine. Extremely easy on the pocket, but great value for money. The dosa, idli and medu wada were all great. I don’t recommend the kulfi though. The chutneys and sambhar served with all the dishes were incredible.The place is very hygienic and well maintained. Service is prompt and courteous, with a very cool device on each table that summons the staff.A very pleasant experience without compromising my budget.
First of all, the daal was NOT sambhar! Get your basics right. The hype surrounding this place is just not worth it.The dosa was ok and so was the idli – but what are they without sambhar! The chicken 65 that we ordered was yuck! Avoid this place at all costs – lackadiscal service and poor standards of food – it was not worth the effort to come this far to have idlis and dosas!
Excellent food…the Gobi65, the Medu Vada, and the Plain Rava Dosa…the chutney and sambar fantastic….all authentic Indian…just loved every bit of food….recommend this place anyone visiting Edgbaston or Birmingham..
The last time I ordered take away from here, (a couple of years ago), the food was pretty decent. This time, the food was just terrible. The chana tasted like chalk with tons of oil in it and the masala dosa was sub-standard. I will not be going back here.
In the 4 and a half odd years I lived in Birmingham, this was pretty much what came to mind when thinking of South Indian cuisine. Not so much because Chennai Dosa is good but because there simply aren’t many options when it comes to South Indian food…Me and my parents visited this a couple of times in 4 years not more than 5 or 6. The food simply dose not live up to the Coimbatore standards…The dosas aren’t crispy enough, the Idlis not soft enough, the Sambar not fiery enough. Its just not good enough. For the love of god, do not order any meat dishes here!Agreed, the prices are very pocket friendly but one would be happy to shell out a few more pounds to get a real taste of Tamil Nadu.The restaurant itself is simple and the staff are polite but not very sharp or enthusiastic. You would see them watching TV nonchalantly rather than keeping a watchful vigil on their customer’s needs.I feel dearly for the people who think this is what South Indian food tastes like. I would urge you to avoid this place all together.I am absolutely flabbergasted at the positive reviews of others on here, especially it being given 4 and 4.5/5?Also, how could they possibly forget the combination of a typical Ooty style coffee with crispy dosa? I just question myself if its really Tamils running the restaurant…For a discerning Indian palate this place is not a good idea at all.
