I have been here several times this place never stops to amaze me. I had a surathkal dosa that was extraordinary. Glory to you mathsya.
this restarant food pure vegetarian. but masala dish non -veg taste of variety good and sweet pasta 5 dish in bujji superrrrrrr
Since i live next door, i have not missed the sunday evening milling crowd around the restaurant. Wonder why the restaurant looks like it has received no face lifting in a very long time! That apart, we did get to eat a decent Sunday breakfast. Mysore masala dosa, single vada and coffee, for two of us cost us around 400 rupees. Thankfully, the aloo filling inside the dosa was not runny, which often turn the dosa soggy. Sambar had the mild sweetish-ness to it, just the way i prefer. The ubiquitous red chutney of chennai eateries was missing, to be replaced by a browner version, which I presume is of fried and ground daal, it wasn't bad either. But the miserly portions of sambar was the disappointing part. Nevertheless, it's good place to visit if you like the Udupi style breakfast.
One of the best places for late night hangout.
One of the late night restaurant in town with good food quality.
Love the food and service here!! Neer Dosa a must have.

Visited this place two days back and i am huge fan of this place and it was great overall,tried the paneer tikka surprisingly it came early and the taste was just spectacular to be honest and we ordered one more plate after finishing the first one,then tried the Mangalore bonda it was super great and awesome which has 10 pieces with sambar and chutney,the malga podi idly was okay because it had too much ghee on it and could have been improved,the methi dosa was good and Raja Raja cholan dosai was okay because the stuffing was very heavy and dosa side and upper layer was crispy for few minutes but the bottom layer was not crispy because of stuffing and side and upper layer are crispy around 2-5 minutes not more than that,which the dosa also could have been improved,tried the kadabu which is equivalent to idly was great accompanied with sambar and chutney but the white kurma was okay in my opinion,the onion podi upthappam was also great,plain idly and idly dipped in sambar was also nice,we ordered chilli cheese toast that was also awesome and in continental tried the pasta that is the spaghetti neopoliton was just great,it had quality and quantity was fulfilling with great vegetables like sweet corn,capsicum and bell peppers which was just treat and awesome,coffee was great and sizzling brownie was just awesome to complete a stunning dinner meal at Mathsya,Egmore.
This was a good place with pretty good ambience the service was really responsive and quick too. Talking about the food were good it was typically with a good udpi flavor. There was a perfect balance of quality and quantity. Sweets were too good, especially waffle was different so thick and different. panner was a bit sweeter, Lotus stem waa too good jtz drolllzzz must try. Warp’s stuffing was good not so spicy was in udpid style veg well cooked dish nachos were very good must try. They definitely have to work on honey chilli potato warp was a bit average because kinda they poured honey on top of it the honey taste was more dominating than the rest. Mushroom were good. Chats were pretty good too this place is a a must try for vegetarians from who is into udpid style foods. Over all really a good place I definitely recommend this to you.
Always avoided going to mathsya due to the wait time and no parking. Tried to go early in the morning and enjoyed an awesome breakfast!
Combo breakfast, methi dosa, lassi and ghee roast!
Food was decent. Not so tasty as I
Expected. Had French onion soup which was apparently soup of the day; tasted like rasam with fried onions.
Rava dosa not crispy enough
Pesarathu ok not very good
Mysore masala dosa; masala was very less but taste was better
Service was slow.... Had to wait for our beverages.
Decent place... Don't expect much and go
No shop in Chennai, serves this quality tasty and this variety menu late at night till 2am, a must try for chennaietes. The taste is good even in the morning.

Food:
Rocket Masala Dosai – A 4 feet long Dosa painted for the gormandizers in Chennai; very crispy and soft on the inside with potato curry filling; some can finish it as a ONE-MAN ARMY.
Raja Raja Cholan Dosai – Expected it to be spicy but still was good with Onion-Tomato curry on the inside; sambar in specific went well with all the Dosas.
Methi Dosai – Herbal, healthy with Podi spread as raindrops all around.
Special Masala Papad – Typical Papad but with the veggies on top it was almost like Nachos and Salsa.
Sizzler Chocolate Brownie – The most sought-after dessert for its captivating look within the frame; soft, smooth and chocolaty.
Blue Curacao & Pina Colada– Sweet minty mocktail with a kick in every sip; the latter was thick but couldn’t find that taste spike as in Curacao.
Ambience:
One of the legendary veg-only places; had no waiting time; the environment inside was classy and pleasant. The lighting was toned down to set the feel and we had good service. I reckon they had valet parking but not sure with that.
Pricewise this place wouldn’t make you regret and their brand name goes a long way down the timeline.
Currently under renovation. But still has access through side entrance. Quality of food and pricing remains the same. One of the trustworthy vegetarian restaurants.
Overall rating : 3/5
Mushroom biryani : 3.5/5
Bisi bele bhath : 4/5
Dahi Vada : 3/5
This place is like old world charm
I come to know that this place serves amazing dosas
And it was really really good choice to have dosa here because it was out of the world. There sambar is fantastic and the plus point is the dosa they made in ghee. What an aroma
I highly recommend this place
The food was perfect and tasty. They were served with minimum wait considering the fact that the restaurant was pretty busy when we came in. The service was good but could have been better. I just saw one person shuttling around attending to all the tables. This can be improved by having more waiters to attend to the people.
I have been visiting this restaurant for ages but I never wrote about their excellent taste. If you are looking for Udipi cuisine in chennai, this is one of the must try places. Usually we order rasam vadai, curd vadai, idly and many varieties of dosa. I love their Lunch thali too. I don’t recommend you to try their milkshakes and beverages as you wouldn’t be excited about the taste. Rest for the food are guaranteed and I am sure you will fall in love with it. Decent space restaurant with less car parking facility.

Recently last Friday we crossed out one restaurant from our bucket list which was pending for a long time and it was one the best decisions made. This place is a Veg lovers paradise. Rasa Vadai and Curd vadai is the best dishes available here and oh my they were so hot literally burnt my mouth and throat. Aloo 55 spicy fry was super hot and spicy and made a great starter. Mysore Bonda was good. We had Butter Masala dosa and Mysore dosa and they were good.
For dessert we had Gulab Jamun Cheese Cake and it was super Tasty (Must Try)
Will we visit again? Definitely A big Yesss!!!
We visited late evening around 9PM and the restaurant was packed. We managed to get a seat for two but there were lots of people who came as a family and had to wait for a long time so plan your visits early.
Service needs to be improved. I understand the restaurant was packed and they had to take care lots of folks. We got lucky as we sat next to the bill counter and the staff in the counter assisted us.if not for him we wouldn’t have got our orders.

If you're a vegetarian visiting Chennai, you must visit the Mathsya Vegetarian Hotel in Egmore. The restaurant offers an extensive menu of vegetarian dishes that are both delicious and affordable.
The restaurant's ambiance is pleasant, and the staff are friendly and attentive. The menu includes a wide range of vegetarian dishes, from South Indian delicacies like dosa, idli, and vada to North Indian favorites like paneer butter masala and chole bhature.
I highly recommend trying the thali, which is a combination of various vegetarian dishes served on a banana leaf. The food is freshly prepared, and the portions are generous. The restaurant also serves fresh juices and delicious desserts.
Overall, Mathsya Vegetarian Hotel is a great choice for vegetarian food in Chennai. The quality of the food and service is excellent, and the prices are very reasonable. Whether you're a local or a tourist, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.
Though looked small and not so appealing at first. I wasn't sure is it a right choice to take my friends from north who wanted to taste typical South Indian meals. Man, what it delivered was complete. We were all full to the neck completely satisfied. Go to restaurant for a South Indian meals. Stands well to its name as one of the legendary restaurant serving South Indian food.
Premium fine dining vegetarian restaurant. Amazing Amazing place for breakfast. Had Masala dosa, vada and their special Rocket dosa which was 3 foot long. The rocket dosai was 450 rupees. Dosais tasted amazing, so did their sambars and vada too. Nice ambience and service as well.
A good friend turned me on to Mathsya, telling me it was the best place to great South Indian vegetarian fare. He was right! From the classic So. Indian breakfast, to great veggie entrees, to delicious Chinese Hakka Noodles...all fabulous! I also had their special Udupi Thali, which was simply amazing! The staff was friendly and helpful. The Owner told me the place has been there so long, you might see your best friend's grandfather at the table next to you!
