Love the buffet at this place. They offer authentic vegetarian Punjabi dishes. Two of my favourite ones are their 'garam garam' jalebis and rajma chawal.

This is one of the best restaurants in Chennai. I was impressed with the food and enjoyed the traditional seating style. The staff was friendly and the service was quick.

The FOOD:
Starters: we started our meal with an assortment of kebabs. The meat and was well cooked and the marinade was tasty.

Main course: we had a chicken curry, a paneer gravy and a variety of naans. The garlic naan and the paneer gravy were very good. The cottage cheese was cooked in a thick, creamy and tangy gravy.

Overall, I was very pleased with my dining experience and will be back soon. Make sure to check it out if you’re ever in Chennai.

I have been here two times in 4 months, and I don't think that the quality of food hasn't changed. I particularly love the stone -themed staircases that lead to the restaurant.

Parking is fine if you come here on a motorcycle, I have no idea about car parking. My guess is, car parking is for Eldorado employees.
I went here in Summer and now and the seating area is definitely not suited for a hot summer afternoon. The humidity and sweating made it uncomfortable. It was fine today with the breeze kicking in.
The food was definitely worth the money. I paid 130 Rupees for the lunch buffet. You have to pay for the food first, get a token and then enter the dining area, give the token and eat with the one single plate that the token collector gives you.  I find that very unhygienic- to take a plate you just ate in back to the spread.

I have been to this place for 3+ times with my wife first and now with my kid. We love to be here whenever a special occasion in my life say for birthday anniversary etc. They are very good in food but little service can be more helpful. I just requested for a bowl to feed my kid they hesitated no one listens to what we say. Still good in food at that price. I am used to Nearbuy website and paid only 110/- per head. Good place to hangout with friends too to spend some time with small amount of food. They can increase the varieties if possible. I still love this place.

Superb place to quench your thirst for authentic punjabi dhabba food. As the name suggest dhabba express is a very down to earth kind of place where you can eat delicious authentic food. Prices are good and good place to hang out with friends. Ambiance is normal.

The place is cozy and warm and is welcoming. We tried butter chicken masala, kadahi pander, karari bhindi, raita, Naan n Lachcha paranthas...food was served quickly, was piping hot, tasted amazing and had authentic flavours. Service was good and the place and food is good value for money...definitely recommended if your taste buds are craving for some authentic Punjabi flavours.

We had buffet dinner here. It was really good. Don't forget to have lassies to conclude the dinner. The typical dhaba ambiance is very much ideal for night hangouts.

Went here for lunch with a friend. The cheap prices of the unlimited buffet invited us to try out this place. The ambience isn't so great. But the food is typically north Indian, and does justice to its name - Dhaba Express! There are veg and non veg buffets, and an a la carte menu as well. There was chole batura, rotis, pasta, and 3-4 different sabjis and gravys to pick from. Great place to go to when your pockets are empty and you want some good unlimited north Indian food

One of the few available veg buffet restaurant. Can enjoy veg buffet (approx. 12 dishes)with less than 200 INR . Alakat is also available for both Veg and Non-Veg. Taste is average. Service is OK. Definitely try Mango lassi. Overall, value for the given money..

I know this dining place from a long time and it's great. The decorum inside is very good. It has been designed in a Punjabi dhaba style. Dining spaces are ample. Dhaba express is mostly famous for its Veg buffet at a reasonable price of INR 180. There is no non-veg buffet but you can order non-veg items separately on top of veg buffet. The menu changes everyday. I have seen many office people as well as bachelors walking into the place and enjoy the meals. I have seen corporates or teams of companies organising team lunch and team dinners. This place is heaven for North Indian foodies who want a good meal or want to full there stomach with good stuff at reasonable charge. There is ample parking space available for bikes & cars.

To the best of my knowledge, this is the only place in Chennai which offers a wide spread of buffet for such a cheap price. I have been visiting this place when the buffet was just Rs 70. Over the years , the cost has increased to Rs 180 (at the time of the review). The all you can eat vegetarian buffet consists of following. Indian Breads - 2 varieties, 2 gravies, 1 Dhall and sometimes a sambar too. They have always a variation in noodles along with a Chinese Manchurian gravy. You get a pulao or a vegetable biriyani along with raitha, salads and pickles. You have a Chinese dry or vegetable fritters, curd rice, plain rice ( don't miss rice with Dhall) and the final one is hot jilebi. The taste is decent and have wondered how they provide such a huge spread. If you want a soft on pocket buffet, this place is highly recommended. Buffet is available for lunch and dinner. They also have ala carte serving both vegetarian and non vegetarian dishes. Definitely value for money.
