This is the oldest and probably the best veg restaurant in Chennai, they served authentic south food, ordered special thali price was around 120 rupees,they served almost most of south indian dishes in this thali,this thali is enough for 2 people,if you are live in Chennai or a visitor in Chennai and want to taste authentic south indian food than this restaurant is must try.
We visited Doveton Cafe in Purasaiwakkam and ordered below items.
1) Parotta served with Onion Raitha,Vegetable kuruma and Veg chops.
2) Rava Dosai served with Sambhar,Coconut chutney,Kara Chutney and Pudina chutney.
Parotta was excellent and the layers in parotta was coming one by one and tasted superb with the side dishes, it was crispy and fresh.
Rava Dosai was crispy and went very well with Sambhar and coconut chutney.
Parotta is an must try dish here.Doveton Cafe is an old restaurant in Purasaiwakkam and still maintains the taste.

Happy Dining!

This place has been here forever. I remember going here 30 years ago. You get that warm feeling when getting into one of these places, like the Palmgrove or Ashoka or Savera. The feeling of stepping into another era where you didnt have to know english or hindi to order south indian food. It is one of those places where you can ask 'what is available now?' and instead of pointing you to a menu card, the waiter will actually tell you everything that is available. It is one of those old style places where you'd see a 70 year old uncle who stopped by just to have a coffee. The interiors have been modernized long since what it used to be, but the taste is very familiar. If you are in the vicinity, and are looking for a proper south indian veg fare that used to be so common when Saravana Bhavan was its peak, step into Doveton Cafe. Especially for their evening snacks, from thayir vada, to bajjis, to vadacurry and more. It is an economical place where you'd be happy to pay more for the old school service and the home style taste. Go for it.
Very good restaurant I love the food and cleanes. Please continue this work. And give us more offers.thank you soon l much for ur delivery all the best
One of the oldest and my fav veg restaurant in Purasaiwakkam...we tried masala dosa , onion rava , chapati and parotha....masala dosa and parotha were really good...Chutney and sambar we refilled regularly without us asking them ....service was good and fast even though we went late night ....must try spot ....
One of the best veg restaurant in Chennai since years ! The hotel has 2 different seatings ac and non AC ! Usually we have to wait as the restaurant is crowded! Food taste is perfect and good Ambience.
Food was awesome and taste and quality is too good... Staffs are also very polite. Their breakfast combo and mini tiffen is awesome. Lunch is also fine and satisfactory.
I've been here several times and never once disappointed. Fresh, hot, and quick meals served. We love the breakfast spread and the south indian stuff. Dosa, vada, kesari etc.,. It's good onthe tummy and my mother prefers this place as it is light on her systel as well - she hates hotel food other wise. So a good, place to dine at when you are hungry.
Nice taste of food. I like the rasa vada which itself is quite filling for the evening snack and also pocket friendly. Except that the crowd and parking issues are a big mess holding to visit this place frequently.
