Location - located right opposite to DMS metro station and right on the busy Mount road.

Parking - Valet parking available

Ambience - the restaurant is in ground floor on the left once u enter the hotel. The ambience is good. With well distanced tables. There was a live counter for tea/coffee and Vietnam rice rolls ( which we loved the most).
They regularly conduct food festivals. We went during the Jewels of Lucknow and Hyderabad festival. The speciality kebabs were directly brought to tables as starters. Chef himself checked with us and ensured that the spiciness of the kebabs are perfect..
Another fav here is the yummy pastry and dessert items. Loved the spread.

Overall the food items are tasty. But the spread is not as extensive as BBQ restaurants.

Pricing - on higher end considering the spread. And note it's a Star hotel

Service - was prompt and quick.No complaints

Rating 4/5 for the tasty food and good ambience

Love the fact that they have entered the delivery game. The packaging, the delivery, the taste all were professional and smooth. And with a competitive pricing, just go for it.

I ordered the Marriott burger, which is a beef burger topped with bacon and a side of fries. You know it’s a good burger when its cooked just right and juices from the beef patty is dripping. Definitely a Must try.

Then I placed an order of the Kerala fish curry and steamed rice, which was a combo. Tasted amazing, the curry had a slight Thai feel to it with the coconut milk. I actually liked this more than the traditional one. They used basa fish, which was boneless. You can’t expect them to give kingfish for their pricing. This too is a must try.

Visited this place for lunch with colleague. The ambience of this place was so cool as other star hotels. The service was also good and delightful. Coming to the food, it didn't impressed me much for the cost tagged by them. On the buffet they served, 3 starters, varities of salads, 2 thin crust pizza and roti's on order they provide you, steamed rice, sambar, rasam, meen kulambu, dal, jeera rice, fried rice, fish, etc. and also varities of muffins and dessert. The only cons is that it is less spiced for my taste, otherwise everything was yummy.

If buffets are what you enjoy, you cant miss the spread at Paprika at Courtyard Marriott.

Art meets Food is a festival , a multi-sensory occurrence through food and art that will take your senses on a journey like never before featuring an exhibition of artworks with a fantastic buffet spread .

They had few starters like Fish, Chicken fry and Spring Rolls . Live counters of Pasta and Chaats , Wood fire pizzas , main course with multiple Sides , Rotis and Biriyani/Rice .
Also don’t forget to gorge on sumptious desserts ❤️

Definitely a worthy meal and a happy Sunday brunch with Family / friends .

Here for the Sunday brunch but this time it's different. Marriott has organised a brunch with a cause where a lot of wonderful arts like paintings are put up where customers can actually buy them. Soo it was more like a wonderful food combined with beautiful art kinda theme. Well me I'm not much of a art person but i must say those paintings were absolutely beautiful just like the colourful desserts from dessert counter over there.

They've got exciting range of starters like japanese pizza , indian chaat and also different types of pastas with different sauces. Even the main course had wide range of dishes like Ratatouille , different types fried fish , grilled tenderloin and a few other chiniese deep fried dishes. The main highlight of the brunch was ofcourse the paintings but along with it was the pork belly , soo succulent and juicy it just explodes all the fat in it as soon as you eat it but also tastes soo freaking good. The now the second main attraction the colourful desserts, more than 10 varities of desserts and each soo uniquely delicious in its own way.

Overall it was such a wonderful brunch spread and most importantly a brunch with wide range of delicious desserts.

Paprika cafe is located in courtyard Marriott..
Went for the food trek festival .. What is special abt this street food festival ?? The street food showcases the best of regional street food .. Andhra Pradesh, Kolkatta, North east, Kerala .. The chef curated the menu in such a way, that we get to taste the famous street food in the above mentioned regions at one place .. There was a live counter for each region ..

Both veg and non veg options were there in starters and main course .. The welcoming drink in the form of sharbat was refreshing one .. The fried items were delicious and the live dosa counter has my heart .. No complaints on the food .. Dessert counter looked like a mini heaven .. From pastries to street food desserts everything tasted absolutely great ..

Service was top notch .. Very quick to our needs .. The chef explained abt the each food trek and that made us to pick the dish easily .. Loved the ambience .. U can actually walk around and fill ur plate .. Valet parking is available ... The unlimited buffet dinner is priced at ₹1950 .. Worth the price since u get to taste all the famous food from each region at one place ..

Been to the Culinary tale of Bengal festival thats happening now and I must say the spread is good. Taste is authentic. The buffet counters are made interesting and re created  to bring in the authenticity. Regarding the service, the staff were courteous and caring.  There are more options for Non Vegetarians ( something so obvious with the Bengali food) but then it would be good if they can add some more authentic tastes from Bengal for the Vegetarians.

What a wonderful experience Marriott. The ambiance and the interior is at it's best. Well behaved staffs. Very couteous. The choices of food were awesome. We had good option in Continental Chinese Mexican south Indian north Indian bengali and yeah how can I forget Italian. The pizza was such a treat. The thin crust was so delicate but was able to hold the cheese and the toppings. I guess the cheese thread could go to the moon and back :) ther had a very generous salad bar with both veg and nonveg options. About Mutton samosas and chicken cutlet... what can i say, with all the chutneys on the side it is something you can experience forever. At the end..who can miss the colourful desert table. Ohh man..you just have to forget there is something called "Diet". Brownies pastries kheers rasagulla and other jeera sweets will give you no other choice . You just have to taste every bit. Overall the experience was like being in Disneyland for food.

A real good experience of tasting the culinary that is prepared with utmost care and perfection.

To start with, the restaurant is located bang on the Mount Road which can be easily accessible by 2/4 wheeler, public transport including Metro. You just need to alight at DMS Metro and it is located just opposite to it.

The ambiance is too good to mention. The interiors are done very well. Staffs are courteous and keep attending to your needs with a smiling face. Lighting and seating are perfect. You can go with your family or friends to have a real good time.

Today I was there to attend the culinary tales of Bengal which will run until 30th of September. The menu & the counter are really vast. There are live counters for Pizza, Chat, Rolls. Of course there is a juice station as well. You could also get hot filter coffee.

There is huge selection among veg and non-veg items. They are displayed in an attractive way which would make even those with lesser appetite to go for it.

I had a chance to taste upon few delicacies including pasta, pizza(2 varieties), Paneer rolls, Filter Coffee, Bajji, Mysore bonda, salads, vegetables among others.

What did I find appealing?

Firstly, it is the presentation.

Secondly, the varieties which was vast giving you enough chance to try on one or the other.

Thirdly, I liked the taste of each and every item. Usually I keep a smaller portion so that I do not miss out on any. I did not regret this time as I found each and every dish appealing.

The Bengali dishes were kept in earthen pot vessels separately and of course there is a huge section for desserts as well. I thoroughly loved eating and relishing each and every item.

It is certainly worth your money :)

Paprika has come up with a food festival. This week from Aug 19 to Aug 31st the theme is Jewels of Hyderabad and Lucknow. Went there on the first day and the buffet spread was good. Loved the Mahi Noori Kebab and the Chicken Biriyani. The Mutton Nalli n Fish curry were really good. Do try the orange Mousse from the dessert table. Overall the hospitality and food makes it a unique one unlike the normal buffets.

Visted the place after almost after 9 years and no it didnt disappointed me at all. Food was tasty as it was when i first had lunch here 9 years back.
The street food festival plus awesome offer from dineout drew me to the dinner buffet this time . Spread was huge . I almost tried everything was on the menu except pizza and salad.
Ambience as usual was amazing, staffs helpfull, food great. As the theme was street food festival the items on the street food counter could have been better. Had to reduce 1 star as tikkis and koftas missed basic seasoning and meat was hard. The chicken in chicken roll that too much vinegar which an extra tangy kick to it. The correct amoint would have made it the best roll available in chennai.

A nice evening with good food and good company at the Paprika cafe! It was their street food festival and the chef was very courteous enough to walk us through all the street food counters.

The chef has made sure that this street food festival would definitely cover all parts of India as they have included Street sea food to Chinese street food! Their dosa counter was the busiest one 😁

They have also brought in the Calcutta local varieties of chap! Some of them are very authentic to streets of Calcutta like brinjal chap 🤗

All the counters were fab and we liked the chowmein and Panipuri counter the most apart from Kolkata chap counter!

And not to forget their regular buffet menu which has who lot of dishes which is unlimited!

Apart from this they also have live sea food counter where they have varieties of fishes cooked for us as per our recommendation or chefs recommendation 😅

All this is for Rs. 1950/- inclusive of taxes! Definitely worth a try 🙌🏻🙏

If you are looking for a relaxing, tasty and diverse sumptuous meal , the Sunday Brunch at Paprika, Marriott deserves an applause. The diverse selection of multiple cusines - Continental ( European, Mexican, American), North Indian and South Indian included a wide range of fresh and grilled exotic salads n dips; both veg/ non veg soups, live beans and beef tacos and pizza counter; a very desi kathi roll live counter; grilled fish, chicken and paneer tikka staters; main course included a wide range of north and south Indian dishes ( Biryani, Dals, Paneer curry, spinach corn curry , Mutton curry) ; A decent selection of continental dishes included grilled steak, baked vegetable augratin, Singaporean fried rice, Thai chicken with broccoli, asian stir fried veg gravy to name a few. Pork belly with baby potatoes and grilled vegetables was the star of the spread. For the simple hearted a live dosa, idly, paniyaram, sambhar, curd rice, dahi wada etc was an add-on along with wide range of papads and pickles. Being the season of mangoes a widespread selection of mango infused deserts which were both visually exotic and tantalizingly delicious along with mango based cocktails simply sealed the deal on a sweet note. The hospitality was top notch with the entire staff being very polite and courteous catering to all of your demands.
Cheers to the entire team of Paprika from the head chef to the cooks and the servers n staff for their extreme dedication and hard work which was so evident in the display and the taste of the dishes.
Thank you for making this Sunday Brunch a flavoursome and moreish experience.
Will definitely come again soon.

Tonight I went here for dinner with my friend Aashish Jain , first time visiting courtyard marriott. The most wondrous part is the person who served us Santosh, very must hospitable and friendly. Served us with much care. The ambience and environment is nice, as with the late night dinner it was peaceful, never been during day time.
Coming to the food which I can't say frabjous, out of 1 to 5 the great, I would rate it as 3.5.
The five star I gave is for the perfection of the service.
We are planning to try breakfast once.
The issue with the food everything we ordered from baby corn fry is with cauliflower unable to eat as we both hate it, then the Risotto I felt sour taste and too quaggy.
The roti and dhal makhani which my friend like it.
Service is Marvellous
Environment is nice
Food is Okay(my experience)
But will surely visit again.
Thanks a lot to Mr. Santosh.

Went on a Saturday afternoon , only to find out that spread offered by this restaurant is very poor . There were no starters and the food quality was also very bad .I would have rather eaten a food in a dabha, if all I have to eat is steamed rice and moong dhall . Service levels are also abysmally poor . Will not be visiting this restaurant anymore and I would not be recommending it to anyone too .

チェンナイのアナサライ地区にあるマリオット系列ホテルの一階に位置するレストラン。通常は宿泊者向けの朝食を提供している。典型的なホテルビュッフェであるが、ありがたいのは味噌汁と白ご飯があること。どうしてもインド料理が主体となるが、多少の和食もありホッとする。時間帯によってはとんでもなく混雑するが、チェックアウト日には送り出しのパンケーキを提供してくれるなどホスピタリティはしっかりしている。

The high ceiling at Paprika with a lavish vibrant spread had the taste buds pop out in curiousity. The Non-veg Thali and the Spicy Boneless Lamb kept us enjoying every morsel. John, surprised us with bowls of hot soup that was a teaser to the thali that was yet to arrive. It was certainly a fine dining experience that will be a delicious memory.

Really appreciate the extra effort the staff took for customer satisfaction.
I jokingly asked for a drink (that was unavailable during lunch) to be served to me complimentary during dinner. During dinner, in addition to the complimentary drink, the staff served complimentary starters and desserts as well.

Great ambience, polite staff, great service.

It was quite a sumptuous experience in Paprika. Although my experience in Kolkata Marriot was very average, but this place didn't disappoint me. They had two veg and two non veg starters which was quite good. Their Salad spread was very wide and delicious, loved the baked corn and spinach. Their we're couple of items which stands between main course and starters, out of which Panji Chicken with herbs was just amazing. Main course didn't had much to offer but their pizza and chats were good. Top of the charts will be their dessert which were lickalicious. But they didn't had ice cream which was a bit disappointing. Service was prompt and ambience was nice and soothing. All in all a very nice experience

After a long research and debate we decided on this one for our getogether..we were initially reluctant to select this place as their buffet menu wasn't available in any search..still decided to give it a try for its reputation!

We were served with a egg drop soup which was okayish and v would recommend to serve it hot next time as it was in the room temperature which was a shame!!

Some chicken and fish starters were served on table and truly we weren't able to differentiate between the two!! Lots to improve on the starters!

The salad and the bread section had a good variety but the breads were cold and hard !

For the mains, the spread was good including chicken briyani,pepper chicken, goan fish curry,ginger fish, pasta, veg fried rice, paneer gravy, sabzi and south indian curries and rice to finish it off..

Live counter served just the pizzas and except for the good crust the pizza was very bland!

The total mood lifter was their yummy desserts!! It was a very vast spread with cakes,tarts,ice creams, payasam, halwa , brownies, custards which was a delight to our taste buds!!

Would definitely visit again just for their awesome desserts!

After a lot of research landed up at Courtyard Marriott for BAE's Bday lunch😊 dint regret making this decision, wonderful and calm ambience.
By the time we reached place was not crowded and we were asked to choose our own table😍
Chose a table with road view and got seated there.

Starters:
Chicken kebab- perfectly cooked but blant in taste
Fish fry- it would better if made in small pieces
Potato tots- yummylacious
Gobi manchurian- below average

Main course:
Briyani- yummy briyani perfectly cooked meat
Pizza- chicken pizza was yumm. Thin crust freshly made pizza
Pepper chicken masala
Roasted chicken
Beef in teriyaki sauce- half cooked beef and gravy wasnt upto the mark
Veg noodles- seriously very plain no schezwan 🙄🙄🙄
Jeera rice
White rice
Dhal
Sambar
Rasam
Breads to order

Main course variety is worse. You should seriously work on maincourse menu👍

Desserts:

This was my only hope❤️ Every single thing was soo delicious. I am not a huge fan of Indian desserts but a huge fan of pies and cakes soo i completely enjoyed it.

Cons:
I would say lack of manpower.
I could harldy see staffs approaching for asking if we wanted something, even for refilling water we had to call sme1. Until unless you call and ask them nothing will be served. So management should keenly look into this. Because with your great ambience and tasty food if you just put some effort to increase the service it would make our experience even more special.

After having an almost pathetic day, drench in rain while reaching the place and then you're taken aback seeing them serving your 2nd most favourite cuisine and you thank all the God's the old and the new ones. That's how it all started.

So this review is going to be limited inly to the JAPANESE NIGHTS that happens only in WEDNESDAYs

So what are the spreads they offer??
- Salad Menu
You have the variety of making your own salad with all the essentials available, but you knowe right the extra effort is always looked beyond and I took a olunge on the readymade ones and I gotta say I did take a good choice. My top picks were,
And mind it these are all coming from a guy who skips salad and goes to the meat side in a jiffy 😜
> Blanched Broccoli Cherry and Tomato
It's every bit of the what the name says in itself, fresh stuff is what makes it all the more worth. Crunchy to the bite and the dressing was well married.
> Grilled Chicken Asparagus
Chicken on a salad, how could I say no... totally not the grilled you're used to, its more of like the slow cooked and roasted along with herbs such as thyme and the clarified butter being tossed on continually. Ok ill stop. In short best, but wait there's one that I really enjoyed
> Creamy Potato (best of the lot)
Dood, this was like everything I wanted out of a serving, am not sure how they call it a salad but if this is how they general are am switching to a salad diet (that's just me exaggerating don't worry I won't 😏)

- (Have no idea what this counter is about but was more of appetizers)
> Chicken Dasi Broth
> Sweet potatoes
> Broccoli Tonago
> Steamed Fish
> Teriyaki beef
Didn't have much from here, my pick was the steamed fish and the beef stir fry i.e the teriyaki fortunately both were equally good and was juicy enough to give me a real spray of shower inside. Totally succulent stuff.

- Sushi Bar (Would have loved if it was a live one)
> California Maki Roll
> Tekka Tuna Roll
> Maguro Tuna
> EBI Shrimp
It's kinda difficult to mention each one in depth but lemme say this, if you know a sushi works you would really appreciate it, the sticky rice with sesame seeds and the stuffings inside were real balanced and I didn't had to reach for soy sauce or wasabi to balance it out!

- Live Noodles counter
The topping spread was of the usual...baby corn, mushroom, bell pepper, red lettuce, spring onion, zucchini, carrot, tomato, onions. And for the noodle types it was off Soba and rice noodles. After like 5 minutes the greasy bad boy was mine to devour it was nothing to be like blown away or not to miss or anything but good and did the trick.
To bad the portion was quite small every time I asked for a plate. Didn't want to pester him for more cause that's when the line started becoming big and the anxietying and then followed by the panick attack.😥🙂

- Dessert spread
There's a saying it's best to fill up with desserts when in a buffet cause that's were you can even out your money 😂 whoever follows this should really come down here. The spread isnt wide in any sense but the handpicked feature really shows. So what an all were available??
> Mochi
> Japanese Cheesecake
> Castella Pancake Sanwhich
> GreenTea Pastry
> Cheery cheese Tart
Ok lemme be true here, I am not used to any of this in the spread not even tasted one in it! Like cheesecake in general yess but the japanese twist nope, same as with pancake i've had but the sandwich nope, pastry of course but with green tea NOPE! You never can go wrong the dessert and that holds good here to the sponginess the infusion and even the pictures came good 🤣

There was a Japanese crowd in itself enjoying the buffet and that would be reflected on my pictures🙈 as I got hold of just one piece each in the sushi, hence the line fiasco too! But that says about the level of authenticity too. Kudos to the management for putting up such a festival.
And wait,
There's a separate buffet which offers everything that they generally have from soups, briyanis, chicken curries to breads even curd rice and what not. Even another dessert counter so yayyy!! Overall the experience was real good and if you're looking for a good holiday dinner this is one to look for. Pricing is totally something to be wary about cause it ain't cheap in anyway.
Japanese Nights are happening only on Wednesday's
The cost is 1600/- per head, all inclusive!
Happy holidays people!!

This place was bookmarked for a really long time now and I finally got the chance try it out and it happened to be Thursday night - "Italian Night", couldn't have been more happier and excited.

Starting off with a basket filled with variety of fresh bread served with three different dips. The buns topped with olives and sun dried tomatoes with pesto dip was my favourite.

Spaghetti bolognese - Best one I have so far! Ground beef tossed in chilli garlic sauce and served with spaghetti at the live counter. The taste, experience and essence totally worth it.

Chicken pizza - Thin crust pizza with mild base sauce and loads of cheese and.. chicken ofcourse! Yumm!

Pasta live counter!
They a bunch of pasta and raviolis.
Ravioli -
1)Three cheese
2)Mushroom
3)Chicken
4)Spinach and corn

Our first combo, three cheese ravioli, chicken ravioli, olives, white sauce and broccoli. So much goodness in one plate. It was delicious!

Second, mushroom and corn ravioli tossed in olive and garlic, topped with grated cheese. Chef's special.

Ah the desserts!
Tiramisu - I totally loved this dessert. Had the right amount of sweetness and coffee flavour to it.

Cannoli - Deep fried dough stuffed with sweet filling. It was different and worth a try.

Crunchy mixed berries pastry - Chef Kuldeep's special dessert. The taste and presentation both were top notch!

The ambience, the food, service and bunch friends - perfect Thursdays night! Overall great experience.

Food was awesome. Ambience and service was top notch. We had Pizza as part of the buffet which was really mouth watering that I would rate on par with most of the best Pizza that I have tasted so far.

Spread was kind of OK in terms of the price. Could have been better and when compared with similar restaurants like Hyatt where you get a really good spread.

We were there on a weekday night and chose the buffet. The food was spread out all over the open-plan restaurant along with the live counters in a corner. We were served by the lovely Lovely Lamchani Gurung, an extremely pleasant person and chef. He paid great attention to our comfort and to the food served, going so far as to give suggestions of what to eat. He also got the kitchen to make a nice dosa for me, as a complimentary dish, since it was not included in the buffet. The salads were okay, nothing great to write home about. But the biriyani struck the right note, as did some of the other Indian dishes. The dessert spread was good, though I didn't have the stomach for it, after a heavy meal. Overall, Paprika was hot, as it should be.

Though the spread does not justify the price, every dish was great. The dessert spread was particularly disappointing, though the specific dishes on the day I dined, beetroot halwa, was delicious.

Since it was our wedding anniversary I wanted to take my wife to a cozy place and surprise her and I decided on Paprika! Well they definitely live up to the expectations of their brand!

Right from the reception, we were warmly greeted and made us comfortable! They confirmed if we want to go with A la carte or buffet and we were served with a welcome drink (a mango juice). Since we are veg (I know the options may be limited) they served us with Palak Paneer Tikka and deep fried vegetables which were good!

I waiting to hear from them about their famous wood fire thin crust pizza! It was so delicious that we loved it to the last bite! We also tried on their live noodles section which was good as well!

The main course was filled with Organic salads, creamy salads, rice, dal, sambar and the usual stuff! They had around 8 varieties of pickles and everything tasted very good!

Desserts were nice as well! Overall a good delight!

It would be fair if more options are available for vegetarians!

We thought of checking out this place yesterday and after much thought we did, this was the best decision we've made in terms of food, they did have a splendid buffet for Rs.1499 but we chose the a la carte , the Mumbai masala sandwich and the noodles we had are extrodinary - no words to describe the exquisite taste our taste buds felt on that cool breezy winter evening , absolutely love it do check this place out ! Ambiance and great service to boost as well! Will return again soon !

Been here for the first time and stepped in with lots of scepticism that being a veggie can't enjoy the full fare in sunday brunch which is partially true.

My only complaint - paprika is offering more exotic non veg dishes than veg . But I am floored by the veggie offerings especially live starters and wood fired thin crust pizza's. The striking feature here is live starter's counter where chef is dolling out 4 type s of veg starters 3 of them panneer based (pre marinated) which will be a perfect start when paired with minestrone soup having copious amounts of veggies.

Too little egg less desserts also let me down but the winner in egg less desserts is chocolate sable which will make any chocolate lover craving for more and ice cream.

It's heartening to see that in the live kitchen copper utensils are used for cooking which will render unique taste to some dishes and good for health as well.

Signed off with a South Indian filter coffee which striked the right notes for me.

PS- Don't miss out trying 8 types of pickles which are placed in traditional South Indian ceramic jaadi for which I am looking forward to visit again.

We all just love the deadly combination of food and good music. Finding a good place for buffet on weekend could sometimes be a tough task. Isn't it?? Plus if you wanna enjoy live music, that makes the task even more tough. Not anymore. Paprika cafė is the best option to serve with your requirements. A live vocalist is there who makes your dining more exemplary.

Went there for Sunday brunch. This place is home to a potpourri of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. It is known for its exclusive food culture & traditional range of dishes. The mocktails & cocktails choices are interesting with wide range of cold and moderate drinks. They even ask you, if you wanna make your own drink.

They took into consideration every detail of ambience, from right seating to beautiful paintings.

Since good food is foundation of genuine happiness. Therefore, even moving to the kitchen they have well-trained experienced chefs which puts another stamp on its authenticity. Keeping the comfort of the customer in mind, the staff is trained to be hospitable and know everything about the food that they serve. There is a live Chaat counter, burger counter, dessert counters for the save.

I loved the dessert sections because it contains lot many options along with many varieties of cake. The richness of flavours & the traditional recipes are guaranteed to make you fall in love with Paprika Cafè. Also, the hotel has a valet parking, so not worry about your vehicle.

Highly Recommended!!
Bon appetite:)

Was here on a team outing, the interiors are really plush and the decor is subtle and fancy. The spread had a lot of organic salad dishes, a huge variety of breads, props to the cute tiny baguettes. The starters and main course don’t have too many options if you’re a vegetarian. Main course consisted of a blend of indian, regional, continental and Asian cuisine options. Dessert was the most rewarding section with a wide array, from the humble gulab jamun to blueberry pavlova! We were served orange coolers on the table as well. The dining area also had a photography exhibition on the side.

A great place with a good and peaceful ambience. The quality of food is good as what you can expect from an international cafe. The taste of food is a little bland compared to other cuisine-specific restaurant, however it is expected from an international restaurant since they cater to people with different tastes. The creme brulee was just amazing. The gardenia pizza was loaded with lots of veggie toppings and cheese, which was worth the price. The pasta was little bland, as mentioned earlier. The cafe manager is really friendly and helpful.

Location - located right opposite to DMS metro station and right on the busy Mount road. Parking - Valet parking available Ambience - the restaurant is in ground floor on the left once u enter the hotel. The ambience is good. With well distanced tables. There was a live counter for tea/coffee and Vietnam rice rolls ( which we loved the most). They regularly conduct food festivals. We went during the Jewels of Lucknow and Hyderabad festival. The speciality kebabs were directly brought to tables as starters. Chef himself checked with us and ensured that the spiciness of the kebabs are perfect.. Another fav here is the yummy pastry and dessert items. Loved the spread. Overall the food items are tasty. But the spread is not as extensive as BBQ restaurants. Pricing - on higher end considering the spread. And note it's a Star hotel Service - was prompt and quick.No complaints Rating 4/5 for the tasty food and good ambience

Paprika restaurant is located in the Lobby of the Marriott in Teynampet Chennai. They have a vast selection of Veg and Non Veg dishes and Indian and Western Fare. The staff are polite and helpful and the food was very tasty. The Thenga Maanga Sundal Salad was yummy, the mango instead of the normal tomato gave it a different twist. The only draw back was there was too much Urad Daal used as tempering which wasn't fried enough so was quite hard. The kanda bhajiya too was yummy as was the Margarita Pizza. Prices are on the higher side being a 5 star, the sundal and kanda bhajjiya were about Rs 550 each.

A real good experience of tasting the culinary that is prepared with utmost care and perfection. To start with, the restaurant is located bang on the Mount Road which can be easily accessible by 2/4 wheeler, public transport including Metro. You just need to alight at DMS Metro and it is located just opposite to it. The ambiance is too good to mention. The interiors are done very well. Staffs are courteous and keep attending to your needs with a smiling face. Lighting and seating are perfect. You can go with your family or friends to have a real good time. Today I was there to attend the culinary tales of Bengal which will run until 30th of September. The menu & the counter are really vast. There are live counters for Pizza, Chat, Rolls. Of course there is a juice station as well. You could also get hot filter coffee. There is huge selection among veg and non-veg items. They are displayed in an attractive way which would make even those with lesser appetite to go for it. I had a chance to taste upon few delicacies including pasta, pizza(2 varieties), Paneer rolls, Filter Coffee, Bajji, Mysore bonda, salads, vegetables among others. What did I find appealing? Firstly, it is the presentation. Secondly, the varieties which was vast giving you enough chance to try on one or the other. Thirdly, I liked the taste of each and every item. Usually I keep a smaller portion so that I do not miss out on any. I did not regret this time as I found each and every dish appealing. The Bengali dishes were kept in earthen pot vessels separately and of course there is a huge section for desserts as well. I thoroughly loved eating and relishing each and every item. It is certainly worth your money :)
