Sambar Idly - must must try ❤️
That Orange and White chutney is very Yum ..
If you try with one set of Sambar idly that taste will make you to go for one more set ❤️ that’s Ratna Cafe 🫡
One of the very old and famous vegetarian hotel located in triplicane. It's very famous for their sambar. The old style ambience and food taste was above average. You can drink Litres and litres of sambar for single idly.
Ratna Cafe is a popular vegetarian restaurant located in the Mylapore area of Chennai. I found the ghee roast to be amazing. The porotta veg curry combo and filter coffe with less sugar enriched my taste buds . The Cafe is located in a busy street so plan your visit advance and better use public transport or taxi service .
The price seems to be not low nor high compared to other restaurants around .
Overall, Ratna Cafe seems to be a great place to try out some delicious vegetarian food in Chennai.
Staff serves you like a home / your mom
Loved all the dishes I tasted
Idly dosa Vada and sambar what to say about the master piece.
Coffee was fantastic 😍
Really had to wait for getting a table, but worth to wait.... You know...
The Sambhar Idly at this establishment is truly exceptional. While many draw comparisons with the Welcome Hotel, asserting its superiority, I personally find Ratna Cafe to be significantly more satisfying. Despite the slightly higher cost, the quality and taste at Ratna Cafe make it well worth the price. It holds the title of my favourite cafe in Chennai, conveniently located close to my residence. I do wish I had the opportunity to sample more of their delightful dishes. The meal I tried was also quite pleasing.

The Sambar was overated but it stands for that word. The taste was very good. Must try veg tiffin spot. Bucket list done ✅
My take, much of a hype in YouTube. Though good, there wasn't a wow moment. Located at busy junction. No parking area either for 4 wheelers. It has old looks inside, some may love it. Food and service was pretty decent. Overall Fine.
In Love with the Place.
I stayed in Chennai for 3 days, out of which I visited 2 diff branches of Ratna Cafe on 2 days and none of them failed to impress me.
Stating from the taste of sambar, quality of food, ambience - everything is great. This joint has the best best SAMBAR Chennai can offer you. Must Visit ! Parking is a lil bit problem near both their branches I visited. I tried their snacks also which are very good.
Finally a Good One to remember for life time !!
Its famous for sambar and idly. The Samar is the trade dish here. Tiffin is good and poratta and dosai have different taste. Try atleast once for good taste. Takeaway is there
Vada?, Yes.. best Vada i have ever tasted. Perfect consistency, crispy, tasty.
Parking at this place would be a pain, But get in there and have the food of your life.
