Kumar mess. 100 feet road, Vadapalani with a dedicated parking space now.
Week days are free. Weekends are crowded most of the times.
We took non veg meals, chicken pepper chukka and mutton balls.
Meals had typical 3 gravies with rasam, omelette etc.
No nonsense meals.
Pepper chicken flavour was good, but chicken was bit rough. Mutton balls melted in mouth.
Overall, satisfying experience. (Bill enclosed)

I have been to this place on 4 occasions and it has always been very good. Mutton Biryani is tasty though the quantity is bit less considering the price. Crab soup is very good. Twice I tried non veg meals and the curries are tasty. Contrary to many restaurants, the rice is well boiled here. So you can eat more. Once tried mutton chops curry. Both the pieces and the curry were very tasty. Also try the crab omelette here. It's very tasty.
Go here for Authentic Madurai cuisine. The biryani made from jeeraga samba rice is extremely tasty and the chicken and prawn chukka is yum. Finish off with the elaneer payasam which is to die for.
This is a great place to have Madurai style Chettinad Cuisine .. the food is out of the world .. the meals, the Muttob Biriyani, the Quail Fry and the Thalacurry are out of the world.. the Elanir Payasam is another thing which you must try .. would love to go again ..
Easily one of the best places for non veg lovers in Chennai... Ordered mutton Briyani, liver fry, mutton kola. The Briyani was very falvourful, light on the tummy and was great. The Mutton kola was one of the best I tasted in recent times. The Liver fry was also excellent. We topped up the dinner with their Jigarthanda which was very authentic.
True Madurai food lovers don't miss this place

We were in Kodambakkam area of Chennai and wanted to try some authentic Chennai Nonveg food.Some of our friends recommended us Chettinad food.
Chettinad cuisine is perhaps the most renowned fare in the Tamil Nadu. It uses a variety of spices and the dishes are made with fresh ground masalas. Spicy South Indian Authentic !
So that we searched for one Chettinad restaurant.
Madurai Kumar Mess serves some authentic Chettinad Veg Non Veg dishes.
We ordered Traditional Non Veg meals along with fried Pomfert (Vavval Meen Fry) And Prawns bkack pepar fry.
On Banana leaves lunch is being served.Wow.Felt so refreshingly different and traditional than eating from our regular steel plates.
Simple steam rice and variety of Non veg curries served.Fish curry Chicken Curry Mutton Curry and Rassam. Some beet root Veg and green leafy veg in traditional spices being served. Curries were very tatsty and different aromatic flavours to each one.These were very spicy tasty curries.Fried Pomfret and Prawns Masala with those curry leaves...Omg ! One of the most tastiest sea foods ! Sea food was very fresh and made with passion.
Please try these.Iam sure you will love it.Hmm How about some tradtional desert ? !! We ordered Their authentic Payasam.Made with cooked rice in milk their soeciality is added tender coconut. Terrific stuff !
All the hype around Chettinad food correctlt justified. If you are around Kodambakkam...Madurai Kumar Mess is a must visit for Non Veg lovers.Highly Reconmended !!
An amazing south Indian non veg restaurant. We ordered Nandy shell-less, Kudal Kari, Nalli roast, viralmeen, egg dosa, idlies and elaneer Payasam. The viralmeen fry was amazing. The fish was fresh and the peices were juicy and succulent. We loved their Kudal Kari and Nalli roast as well.. It was as authentic as eating in South of TamilNadu. Their elaneer Payasam had the right amount of sugar and was a right desert to end this feast. The quantities were little but we were able to taste all these delicacies within 1400 bucks. It was totally a very fulfilling experience! Kudos to the management to bring such quality in spite of the huge crowd in there. We had to wait for 10 mins to get a seat but it was worth it!
The restaurant has a variety of options including mutton , chicken , quail, fish , crab and rabbit . I had chicken chukka , mutton biriyani , and quail curry , each of them was delicious. The waiting time was very less. The restaurant has a decent ambience. This restaurant falls into a medium to high expensive category.

Amazing food and excellent service, parking was good with valet, yet the traffic on road was bad to pull out the car from the restaurant.
Good Place in Vadapalani. Great spread for Non Veg lovers. They have Chicken, Fish, Mutton, Crab, Duck among other stuff. Variety of preparation, with fast service and less waiting time even during peak hours.
Price is little on a higher side, but I guess good quality comes with a price. Will recommend for sure!
Excellent place for having tiffin items. Their service is very good and fast. The ambience was very pleasant and neat. We tried egg paratha, paratha, idli, chicken chukka, prawn pepper roast and kal dosa. Everything was awesome. Even their side curries were very tasty. So a must try place. They have a branch in tambaram. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
This place is a non-vegetarian and seafood lovers paradise. Anybody who loves the unique Madurai cuisine would like this place. While veg options are not too many, the staff went out of their way to recommend veg versions of popular dishes using mushrooms. Very tasty and good service. The staff knows what they are serving and will make good recommendations.
Authentic chetinad cuisine, loved meen Kulambu, chicken pepper roast.
Stop thinking and go for it. This the the best restaurant I’ve been after synch a long time. Even though it was crowded, we got seated fast, food was also served quickly, the service was very good. The food is also amazing.
Food quality is good and tastes very good. But the price worth is very very high. For a porsche look we can spare the amount for food that's what it feels me to have lunch there. It's a creative idea to have a super good look and hike prices high for a quality food and made people to think only if the prices are high foods will be with good quality...
Madurai Kumar mess is one of the best message Chennai you definitely should not miss this mess if you are a non veg lover. We tried there one vanjaram fish fry paratha with chettinadu chicken gravy mutton biryani chicken 65. Trust me one of the best places serving amazing South Tamil Nadu food.
Very age old place with authentic South Indian taste. They serves food on banana leaf...heaven for non vegetarian lovers.. vegitarians also have very few options.
