Nice ambience, staffs are very welcoming especially Mr. Jayanth. Good customer service, The unlimited buffet(Biriyani & Starters) along with one time served food items priced at Rs.699/- is Good but less items in the menu. Nice place for average eaters.

Tandoori food has several variations all over India and all are good. But being a Punjabi, I've been brought up on certain rustic kebabs, daal and curries which are unfortunately difficult to find in Chennai. Lo and behold - Copper chimney came as a knight in shining armour for my Punjabi food cravings and how! Interestingly this restaurant chain did not originate in Punjab but in Mumbai, Maharashtra and has been in business for over 50 years. 50 years! I've been here a couple of times and had interesting experiences on both accounts. Here I will review their sit down LUNCH BUFFET and their A LA CARTE options along with other factors and give individual ratings. Ambience (4/5) - It has a modern set up with lots of tainted glass and a few chandeliers. It's definitely gives a very OPEN VIBE and is relaxing - They have a show kitchen visible through a window where one can walk over and see them prepare some of the food. - Good amount of Natural light is also a big plus. - Floor and tables were not very clean which was an eye sore considering the efforts put in its design. - There are NO WASHROOMS in the restaurant and you are encouraged to go the mall washrooms on level down if needed. This is a huge inconvenience. Service (5/5) - Very polite and friendly staff. - They KNOW their menu, dishes and portions very well. Please go by their recommendations for those confused with what to order. Ask for JAYANTA. He's a star. - Full table service complete with napkins, service on the plate and finger bowls at the end. Food (4/5) - Biryani and Kebab Lunch Buffet (5/5): Priced at Rs 699 (inclusive of all taxes and service charges), this offer is a STEAL. Please take it hands down. It comes in 4 courses (Soup, starters, Biryani, dessert and a beverage) with Kebabs and Biryani being unlimited. Taste is excellent and it's complete value for money. We especially enjoyed the starters which were of 6 varieties. - Murgh or Paneer Makhani (4/5): It's very rich and creamy but sweet. You should ask them to keep the spice up if ordering. - Bazzar ke chole (5/5): Comes with stuffed kulcha is very delicious. It's a meal on itself. - Punjabi Onion and Mirch Roti (4.5/5): Kadak tandoori roti topped with chopped onions and red chilli powder. Perfect for mild gravies. - Smoked White Pepper chicken chop (5/5): Low spice creamy kebab ok the bone. SUCCULENT. - Delhi Shikanji (5/5): Full of mint and sweet/sour flavour. Very refreshing - Dal - Palak Goolar Kofta (2/5): Horrible. Don't order. - Muzaffar (5/5): EXCELLENT. Rabri consistency kheer with krispy sevai. Very delicious. Overall, our experience has been very very good and we recommend this place for an authentic Punjabi meal.
