Review Karthik Tiffin Centre - Chennai (Madras)

Tiru Mothukuri

Easy to find as it is located on the mainroad. Tried Podi Dosa,Vada and Poori. I really likee the podi dosa and the kurma that comes with poori. Price on the premium side. Fast serving. Would recommend for a visit.

Karthik Ramanathan

Quick service, and the food is minimum guarantee. Serves dishes like pongal, vadai, dosai, idles around the clock. The gem of a place for people working nearby and passing through for a quick bite. Very good quality overall.

Niranjan NJ

One of the most popular street foods in Anna nagar, there is a line even at midnights during weekends. No compromise in quality and quantity of sambhar and chutney

Kishore Magi

Perfect spot for a evening dinner.even they serve for breakfast and lunch but dinner in karthik tiffin centre is a bliss for people in and around annanagar.. they serve various varieties of Dosa , fried rice and Chinese veg goods. Must try spot in annanagar for vegetarians

shyam sundar

Went to this hyped shop on a late night(around 3AM) very limited menu. Priced slightly on a higher side. Decent dosa and a very average sambar and chutney. Not worth the hype.

Prasanth Ramesh

If you any one speaks about night life and good food in chennai, they would have definitely heard about the Karthik tiffin centre opposite to the thirumangalam metro station. Even at midnight one can observe a great crowd enjoying the food outside the tiffin center. Parking can be done in the adjacent road or in front of the tiffin center. The side dishes are to be self served and token system exists for the order. Even with a huge crowd, one will get food in a timely manner and we can literally see how our food is made because of it being an open kitchen. So a must try location in chennai especially for late night foods. Must try: podi dosa Happy fooding 😋

mohan kumar

Pick any item from the menu and you will never leave disappointed. Amazing late night food spot

Sanjay sg

soham chingale

Never think people will be this much crazy for dosa. The taste was beyond imagination. You can try their chinese and falooda also

Akash Ak

Its proper veg food in a budget friendly price..open full night..

KUMAR GAURAV

Taste of food is awesome. South Indian food is must try here. Rush is always there as quality of food is very high. But there is no sitting arrangement. Also waiting time is very high especially in night.

VASUGI PADMANABAN

Karthik Tiffin Centre is an ideal spot for a variety of affordable tiffin items. Personally, I recommend the paneer dosai, though I wasn't a fan of the taste of the rava onion dosai. Overall, the other options are quite satisfying.

Biju

So damn yum food spot. Hot hot dosas with awesome varieties, tiffen and rice varieties available too. It's basically a self-service spot with stand n eat kinda thing, but no compromise in taste or quantity. Pure veg spot too.

Raghavan Vaidhyaraman

Amazing dosas. i tried the ghee panner podi dosa and ghee Gobi podi dosa and they were amazing! No place to sit tho. Id suggest you to take a 2 wheeler and use it as a table and eat there as many people were doing that and it was convenient 😂

PARAMESHWARAN BALASUBRAMANIAN

Yesterday we as family went for dinner Herr and soo much of crowded. The food taste was not as expected. Due to heavy rush customers were not properly serviced. Actually I ordered mushroom fried rice but they've given me gopi rice. I didn't approached to replace because of much crowd. The location of the shop is good and the corner shop. Easy for find a place to settle because here taking food in standing posture. Surely We can try the taste once

aravind elangovan

Perfect spot for a evening dinner.even they serve for breakfast and lunch but dinner in karthik tiffin centre is a bliss for people in and around annanagar.. they serve various varieties of Dosa , fried rice and Chinese veg goods. Must try spot in annanagar for vegetarians

Sudhir Ka Vlogs

Superb place to have breakfast and dinner with only VEG items. really enjoyed the taste and atmosphere. very good place to have light food with best cheap price. price is very reasonable compare to other shop and mostly taste is so good.

Sundaralakshmi Vengatesh

Worst chilly parotta I have ever had. The parotta was deep fried and actually it was over fried and burnt. The gravy was having a deep smoky smell.

Jude Jegan

This place has earned its name through the quality of food it served over the years. However, the quality has now started coming down. Waiting in a queue to get food is not a difficult thing here; the service is fast. However, the taste of the dosas served has drastically come down, with the prices going up. The parotta served doesn't really stand out anymore, and neither do the other dishes. A clear disappointment, and a place I'd avoid until there are drastic improvements made.

GRP

This is a modernized roadside shop so there’s no tables or service (it’s all Kaiyendi Bhavan). Even parking might be a hassle so be on your toes all the time. The best part might be the price which is good for the food they serve. Have been to this place both during their lunchtime and by night. By noon I had tried their Mini meals. It was filled with one veggie (long beans), Kesari, Chapathi-Kurma, Sambar rice, Brinji and Curd rice. Though on the whole, I was just satisfied with the varieties in my plate, I liked the spiciness of the Brinji and the sweetness in the Kesari. I also wasn’t a big fan of the beans and the Chapathi which was kinda dry; Curd rice was simple yet pleasing. The chillies in the curd rice elevated the kick all around, pickles and vada on the side was perfect (not hot yet OK). *Rating for lunch would be 3/5 For the dinner it was, Chilli Idli – Very Spicy, moderate soft Idli immersed in a hot and savoury sauce; had good flavours and was unique Panner Noodles – Pretty Normal, neither spicy nor stale; was just alright Butter Vadacurry Dosa – Medium to large-sized dosa filled with a generous amount of butter, oozing on the whole on top of which was the spicy curry; mixed flavours made it worth Podi Mushroom Dosa – Chilli podi sprinkled as raindrops from the clouds on the dosa; the mushroom masala was good though not the best; can try once, feels heavy. *Dinner deserved 4/5; Idli/Dosa wins the race scoring 5/5

Shobana Mohan

It's a very popular joint in Anna Nagar, close to metro station. One thing about this place is crowded all the time. So one has to wait some time to place the order and get the food. We ordered idli, masala dosa, podi dosa and mixed fried rice. Overall I would rate it average since dosa was too oily, mixed fried rice had aged cauliflower, that had spots all over. Paneer was good and reasonably good quantity. Cost is a bit over the top for the quality they provide. Visit again : rarely

Kaleel Rahman

Good place to have food in street. They serve food within two minutes of order. Price is little high. Food is delicious and worth of money. Amd their chutney and sambar are best with dosa.. They have variety of dosa and fast food items.

Dhivya

Ordered quite a few times from this place and it has been good mostly. The packing is neat as well. If you're a dosa person, you can surely order from this place. Suggestion would be to add more items to the delivery menu if possible.

Aswin Mythili

Poor management. Even though they can streamline process and make the shop less crowded, they chose not to. To up the hype and keep the shop look popular.

Aksshay Sainath

A popular street dosa centre in Anna nagar, head wonders of the place years back but never made a visit. Recently I went over here to try the dosas over here. I Ordered butter podi dosa which was 65 rupees. The serve you extremely fast, it is a self service place. The way thy made the dosa was really cool but apparently the taste was not up to the expectations. It was average only, many people told me that this is not the original taste, it has changed. Guess that is true. Do Check it out if you want to.

Thillai Eshwaran

Road side food but good food. The prices aren't low though. Their vadacurry wasn't that good. Dosas are Ok though. A one time visit btw. Overrated for no reason.

Kdevnath

Serves delicious food at the very heart of Anna Nagar.good pocket friendly restaurant,you have to stand n have ur food.Good taste and defnitely must try restaurant in chennai

Narren

It’s awesome vegetarian corner road side stand and eat Crowd crowd crowd always wait and enjoy delicious food Varieties of dosa plain to stuffed Fried rice is another awesome dish over there Have tried many times Fried rice dosa and side dishes are excellent here They have chapatis and others too Good veg hotel

Madras Foodie

Morning tiffen dosa vada a deadly combination with their chutney.. I have also tried their mini meals wort to eat as well a good quality and taste Tomato rice is my daily meal Awesome food feast for normal middle class people with a rich food quality Thumps up 👍

Prasath Ram

Good place to have fast food. This place serve very delicious food in reasonable price. The food is served very fast just within 2-5mins. The kitchen is in our eye sight.so, everything can be cleanly noted. This place is even open during late nights

Vijayakumar Madhavan

This food joint situated near 12th Main Road, I ate in this hotel say about 7 to 8 years back, this time I ordered for Pongal and MeduVadai. This joint in on the 2nd Avenue Main road and we have to get the food and eat in the platform, the great disappointment I have with this hotel is the person who is sitting on the counter is very rude, coming to the food, the Pongal is a total failure as the taste and texture of both the Pongal and Vadai is that they have been prepared using Ration Rice and MeduVadai is so hard to break. They have Sambar and three kinds of Chutneys which tastes good. When I went through others review, I found most of the people have written that Dosa tasted good, let me visit again only for the sake of Dosai and see how it tastes. The above review is applicable only for Pongal and Meduvadai. Cost is also a bit high for the service they provide. Location - 3.5/5.0; Ambience - 1.0/5.0; Food - 1.0/5.0; Service - 2.5/5.0; VFM - 1.5/5.0

Foodicallychallenged

Pocket friendly go to place is this..... Have been here many times.. Its like a very good south indian eatery open fortunately till 12.00 am.. Its like a boon in the night for some good food. Yesterday dinner was here, we had butter podi dosa and butter masala dosa.. Butter dosa be the best here.... I have also had fried rice and other dishes earlier.. Nothing will disappoint you.. There is no place to sit and eat here.. Gotta stand, but this place is always damn crowded even at 12.00 am.. Thats KTC.. Worth visiting.. The only thing which they lack is a bit of hygiene.. Being a fast food joint, we can't expect much.. And that too their food quality is great.. Just the hygiene can be a bit more better.. Must visit place in anna nagar, if you are fond of good food and will compromise a little on cleanliness..

Goody Foodie

Famous place in Anna Nagar serving fast selling food. Their dosa are crisp and perfect and their batter is excellent. Many a times even the good restaurants you can taste the overfermented batter but not here. You can try many variants of dosa with peas, vadacurry, gobi masala, podi with either the butter or plain variant. They serve three varieties of chutney with sambar. You would have to stand and have food. After billing, there is always jostling for the food with crowd, would be better if they organise it better by the bill number. They are open till 11.30, so perfect for late night food.

Mj Junaidh Khan

Price efficient kinda don’t go for podhi idly r chilly idly both the dishes u will have lots of onions r chilly r capsicum more than idly the idly in these dishes will be very less

Bharani Krishna

Who doesn't know about the KTC. A Place which is filled with crowd even at late night and early in the morning. This place deserves 5 stars but I shall give 4 because the Chinese and other items are average.The tiffin items is the best of best you get in any other place. Need not review much about the place but just tell about some tiffin and Chinese items. ♥️ CHINESE VARIETY. 3/5 ♥️ TIFFIN. 5/5 ♥️ SNACKS. 4/5 ♥️ BEVARAGES. 4/5 ⭐Idly - Soft spongy hot cakes ....goes well with sides but the size is small. ⭐Pongal- No complain about it ...you definitely can try it as it is one of the best seller in this place and the quantity is worth it rates. ⭐ VadaCurry- Dry Vada Gravy with tastes good and if you order plain dosa and idly this is a perfect match. Its Quantity is worth it's rate. ⭐Khichdi- Made with Rava with blends the taste and with all the veggies it goes well with sugar and kruma ⭐Plain Dosa- Plain Dosa is average and nothing special. ⭐Nodles- It's good and can taste it and taste good and spicy ⭐Vada Curry Dosa- The best of best and definitely a bestseller in this restaurant and it's 5 star tasty. ⭐ Gobi Manchurian- Very bad definitely didn't make well for me as it was semi gravy and didn't make well when it came for me in a packing. ⭐ Fried Rice- Not good it was so spicy and wasted money 2 times in spending on Chinese items here. After consulting came to end that this place is best for tiffin,snacks and tea. Chinese items depend on the luck when you try there or get it delivered.Over all 5 stars. Sambhar, Tomato chutney,Mint Chutney are really good and the Vada Curry is a must try here.

Abilash Baskaran

This is a place for good pocket friendly food preferably take away. Happened to drop by for lunch on a weekday and place was pretty crowded. They are right after A2B around the corner on the same side of 2nd Avenue road. Lunch menu is limited to a couple of rice and chapati. If you're not driving around here for a take away standing here the entire time to eat could be a little tiring especially under the sun with no provision to stand or whatever. I'm eying their evening specials like dosa and parotta which seem to be talk of the town actually. It's worth your time and safe on the stomach type of food you eat by the road with no fancy things attached. Oh and it's self service and since it's all off the anda, there's no lag time for service. A plate cost from 35 ~50 bucks which is pretty cheap for the given quality of food. Food - 4/5 Service - 3/5 Ambiance - 1.5/5 Price - 3/5

Lallu Stezika

The cheap and best place for south indian food.. They take street food to the next level.. They provide you unlimited sambar and three types of chutneys. I am giving only 5 stars because i cnt give more..

Venkatakrishna

If I want to have fried rice, this is the place which comes to my mind. If a vegetarian who wants to have fried rice in non-veg fast food style. This is the place for you guys. Fast food blended with South Indian dishes. Price is cheap compared other eateries and quality is also good at the same time. Eternal_Explorer6’s rating: 1. Ambience : 4/5 2. Taste : 4/5 3. Quantity : 4/5 4. Service : 3/5 5. Value for money : 4/5

Laksh

Have heard a lot about this place, so decided to stop by and now it is one of my favorite.. In love with the Butter podi dosa here ..For a person who wants extra sambar always, this place is a delight :-p Must try

Jessica Menezes

The taste and quality is good. Their podi dosa is one of the best. Its pocket friendly, they accept cards too. You will have to stand and eat. Bike parking is available but cars might have a difficulty. There's always a rush during peak hours, you might have to wait.

Runith

#Ambience people madly in love with their Tiffin menu #price pocket friendly ( they accept card payments ) #parking for bike 🏍 it’s yes , for car 🚘 u has to Find the near by lanes or streets #foods @ Podi dosa one the best Tiffin mixing with the sides coconut 🥥 chutney and little Sambar it’s yummy 😋 @podi masala dosa it’s the best one I ever had in Chennai ! The best yummy 😋 Tiffin They sell Tiffin ( morning & night ) and rice in afternoon ,fried rice during night alone ! The best dishes are ghee dosa , ghee Pongal ,ghee podi dosa & Vada their sides Sambar and chutneys is so yummy 😋

Kavya Ramesh

Tucked away on a busy main road, this place is a MUST visit when you are in Anna Nagar. I’ve been eating here every time that I used to visit chennai and the taste and quality have remained the same. Butter Podi Dose is supposed to be one of their specialty and oh boy it tastes absolutely delicious. The vadacurry dose is equally delicious. The dosa comes with a filling of really flavourful vadacurry. The kichadi here is one of my favourites. The portion is big enough to be a meal in itself. Each dish comes with a coconut chutney and mint chutney which I absolutely love.

Hungro_o Chennai

Yummy dosa with variety of toppings and dollop of butter makes it even more rich and tasty. I tried butter peas masala dosa, butter podu dosa and butter masala dosa everything was great the best was butter peas masala.

Sriram Sakthi Athithya

One of the Best place for street food in chennai , they serve mouth watering tasty foods . Only drawback is more rush all the time. All you can see people in cash counter to self serve food counter .

Dayashri Durairaj

A budget friendly shop known for it's all time crowded place..The dosas here are awesome..People said it would take you 10-15mins to reach you..But the wait is worth☺

CVIEWS

A small tiny place to have a quick tiffin at the busy Anna Nagar lane ,tasty and varieties of dosa variations available like butter podi, butter vadacurry dosa, butter podi pattani etc.. Etc.. , all tastes different and good, there butter is really good and tastes pure, there kichadi, pongal is also tasty ,,like other food joints they have even got barotta, chapati, and Chinese for tradition,, but there dosa's Steal the lime light,,, slightly over priced could improve the chutneys taste, however sambar is mouth watering.. on a whole a place to think on a busy day to have a satisfied quick meal ...keep it up!!

Chennaifoooodframe

I have been hearing a lot about this place, so I wanted to check it out. It is a small store located in the corner of 12th Main Road, Anna Nagar. I had the Butter Gobi Dosa. It is a butter dosa with some Gobi masala in it! The dosa was nice and crisp the filling was decent. It costed ₹60. It is an affordable food join which is light on your pocket.

Ankush

My bread and butter for a whole month. When I was in Chennai this is the only joint that helped me maintain sanity. I used to have breakfast and dinner from this joint only. The food is awesome although the place is always crowded and you have to wait atleast 20 minutes to get your order but when you sit down and eat it's absolutely worth it. Loved the dahi vada and butter masala Dosa. Thank you for serving such delicious food.👍

Gopi

good dinner place .had dosa with friends .friendly people and a busy place .cheap and economical only minus was the waiting but still nothing to complain

Afsar Khan

this place food is so yummy especially podi ghee dosa is very yumm & all vegetarian dishes are very good if you are looking for overnight best place to go

Ijaz Ahmed

Good Doshi for the late night starving. Good veggie . Sooo crowded . Have to stand and eat on road . Karthick tiffen centre was really good . Best quality road side food . Only for dosa . Not much varieties only few . Good tho #latenightsaver

Amrutha Venkata

I was asked to try this place by quite a few people and so I decided to give it a shot. I went there for breakfast and had the butter vadakari dosa! It was my first time having a vadakari dosa and was pleasantly surprised by it. Though slightly heavy, it tasted good. An affordable place that delivers on taste.

Irene Alexander

One of the oldest and best place to eat in Anna nagar. Butter dosa is the best and their green chutney is amazing. Easy to locate because of the crowd all the time. Taste-5 Service-5 Quality-5

Prashanth Purushothaman

For this this place will be an emotional place for many people in and around anna nagar esp for most of the students and bachelors because this will not be an ordinary tiffin centre in one’s life, this place will become a regular bf/dinner place for many including me. One cannot simply ignore their podi dosa and gobi fried rice.. They are masters of Dosa I’ll say.. the chutney and sambar creates finger licking moment always 😋 Leave ambience. This place is one and only for the taste they provide. Taste - 5/5

Mothi Lal

Need some improvement like tables for placing the plate... Bt the food was good.....but didn't satisfy my expectation in taste but Pongal was very good.... Over all Ok👌👌👌

Dhivyaa

The fast food tiffen centre which is not only pocket friendly but also has wonderful taste. Though seating and parking is not there,it doesn't stop customers to visit the place. Butter podi masala dosa - awesome Pongal - awesome Chutneys , sambar ,kuruma are simply wow. Price of butter podi masala dosa is 60 rupees Pongal - 40 rupees but the quantity is more Worth the money and the place will be crowded always but they service is fast.

Praveen

nic experience good food but you need to change your ambience and to improve your menu menu is very poor in this competition world u need to increase your service service is not good any way i found best tiffin centre

Dr Daya

My long pending review!! Being a residence in Anna nagar ,,,been here n number of times and one of the land mark in Anna nagar!! Located Just next to hot chips,,u can easily locate it with the crowd pull they have!! It's a veg fast food kind,,they serve you all kinds of dosas,,and other chinese stuffs like fried rice or even pongal,chapathi and parota! My personal favorite and what I would recommend is,, BUTTER AND BUTTER PODI DOSA.. They are utterly butter ,,they just spread a dollop of butter over it ,sprinkle lavish amount of podi,, yaay that too with the sambar and chutney,,I bet u can't get enough of it!! It taste heaven!! Me and my husband man are freaky and madly in love with their sambar!! We could literally drink it too!!😋 PATTANI ,GOBI,MUSHROOM BUTTER DOSAare also equally good and lip smacking,😋 other stuffs like fried rice are good but KARTHICK TIFFEN CENTRE IS ICONIC PLACE FOR DOSA!! If you are a dosa addict like me or a night owls looking for a late night fast food joints yet tasty and drool worthy food sorry DOSAS just drop here!!

Chakki89

As the popular quote goes "You know you're a hustler when you go to sleep after & wake up before Karthik Tiffin Centre" (said by moi). Open from 6am to 1 am, KTC is an actual self service Super-Fast-Food South Indian joint serving the crispiest dosas, super soft idlis & the likes with unlimited sambhar & chutney. if you're bored/hungry and you don't want to spend too much, this is the place to go to. BEWARE of a 100 other Hungry people staring at dosas being made like Vultures ,though.

Venkat Naveen

Excellent dosas. All their special dosas make sure have me go back to place almost every day. Delicious tiffins and very light on your pocket. Their Chinese items are also great.

Vishnu Bharathi

Pocket friendly tiffin center. Best for varieties of dosas on offer. Have been here a dozen time.best option for Breakfast and dinner, if you wanna spend little and for value of money

Krithika Ramachandran

Best one for Kai endhi bhavan. A must try for vada curry dosa. It is just amazing for the taste buds😊. The service is also very fast for the crowd which gathers there. Awesome one. Worth the price.

Vishaal Vb

This place is one of the oldest and best tiffin centre in Anna Nagar. Butter dosa is a great try there. You can try some chinese veg dishes too that also tastes well. Food-4/5

Pradeep R Gopalan

It's simply not worth the hype by the localites. The chilli Gobi didn't have salt in it. The dosas, the chutney sambar were also just average. It still manages to pull crowd because of it's name. It's a thattu kadai but lacks the taste of thattu kadai.

Nachiappan Sundar

One of the best vegetarian fast food center in Chennai . The crowd you can see there itself tells about the food taste . Have been there lot and lots of time . Everything will be good there . The best is there Gobi fried rice . ❤ All the very best . Good going ✌

Bon_vivant Foodie

Cheap and best👌 It's a roadside eatery shop. Where you can find huge crowd infront of it. Was curious to hit this place from long time bcoz of there high quality servings. Our orders: Plain dosai, vadacurry dosai, parotta, mushroom fried rice. Mushroom fried rice was toothsome 💞. Vadacurry dosai- another mouthwatering dish it was.❤ Plain dosai - a normal one.✌ Parotta and Kurma, which didn't make a good pair.👎 It didn't taste like Kurma actually. Above all, though the place is situated in roadside, it was squeaky clean. Vfm:4.5/5

Sarfaraz Nawaz

So long time this place was under my wishlist thier dosa was so craving and i had to go for another one and had medhu vada, it was an evening time though i didn't know i had to wait for atleast 15min for my dosa the taste broke them all and their sambhar and chutney was so good that i drool into them. This place have only self service and you have to eat standing holdin the plates good experience though for a good food:)

Chennai Budget Foodie

This is a more hygienic version of the thallu vandi kadai. The taste of the food here is far far better than any other restaurant in anna nagar. They serve only veg food. The butter podi dosa is a must try with the lavish amount of butter, it just melts in your mouth.The Chinese items served here are also equally good. There is no place to sit and eat and take away from here is not a good option. Its better you eat it hot from the kitchen. Parotta amd its gravy is not thier plus.Avoid it. The place is open even at the night opposed to what they have specified in thier page.

Siddhu Jagan

Corner shop located close to Thorumangalam metro station. Food ordered: Vadai, Paneer paratha and Ghee Podi Dosa Vadai - Tried two different type, Masala vadai and Cabbage vadai. Both were too oily and tasted okay 👎 Ghee Podi Dosai - This tasted very good 👍👍 Paneer Paratha - Tasted average 👎 Price - Paid around 130 rupees for all the above items and this is the best thing about this place. Good food at very reasonable price 👍

Vignesh Rajan

Excellent taste and all variety chutnies available.. Best food at cheap price. Near thirumangalam meteo station. Parcel services also quick and customer friendly hotel

Sathya

Cheap and best. Sambhar and chutneys are so tasty. Mushroom dosa, cauliflower dosa, podi dosa, pongal vadai, masal dosai are good. No place to sit and eat.

Sajna Gokul

Been going to this place ever since I was a child. They have been consistent in their quality of food. Probably the only kayendhi Bhavan where the crowd stands upto the main road waiting for their food(esp dosas). Love the variety of dosas they offer. We ordered, Butter Gobi dosa Podi Dosa Masala dosa Patani dosa. My personal favourite being butter Gobi dosa. Their special dosas with their tasty sambar and chutneys is definitely something that gets you craving for more. They also have Chinese fast food that tastes good, although it is nothing compared to their south Indian food. Undoubtedly the best place for dosas in Annanagar. VFM: 5/5 Cost for four: ₹250+

Sudarsan

Feel of Home Taste, Quite Hygienic, Pocket Friendly, Round the clock food availability, Quick early morning service, More frequent visitors including families, Easily locatable. One of the best Kaiyenthi bhavan in the city.

Vignesh Mohan

Karthick Tiffin centre is probably the only shop where you feel hygenic inspite of eating at the roadside. I've been to this place since childhood. This place serves a wide variety of dosas and they're possibly the best you'll get around chennai. Also , they serve a wide variety of vegetarian dishes. My favorite picks would be the butter podi dosa and the paneer fried rice. This place is also very light on pocket.

Karthiga Pugalenthi

Tastes awesome.! South Indian special. Varieties of dosa. Value for money. Worth it. Street food lovers must eat. Too good. Fast serving and hygiene too. Totally, love it.

Food Lover

This is one of the most pocket friendly places on the busy roads of Anna Nagar! For dinner, Their Dosa varieties are so diverse and very tasty without biting your pocket. Their Sambar and 2 Chuttnies always tempt you have one extra dosa! And their Chapathis are also very soft and delicious. It goes well with their authentic veg kuruma!! Only con here that you need to wait to get your order as it's mostly crowded. P.S: The restaurant now closes at 11pm itself! Be wary of that.

Vignesh G

The best Tiffin Centre ever....those you have hunger at early Morning....Then try this ....Home taste feel....Descent ambiance......Do try this...for south India breakfast and dinner.....Afternoon too good with variety rices .....👍

Praveen S Parama

The place which never lets you down if you are a hungry beast who wants a bite after 11, this is the place you need to hit. A pure vegetarian paradise with dosa varieties and tiffin items. Been eating here for past 4-5 years still feel so happy and like first time each time I visit the place!!..

Sindhoora Mohan

Best vegetarian street food joint in Anna Nagar. It's usually crowded all the time. My favourites: 🔹Butter Dosa 🔹Butter Podi Dosa 🔹Gobi Fried Rice

Aj.ecec

Once cheap, now not-so-cheap, yet relatively cheap;) stop preferred by students, unemployed, surrounding employees n even families. Try different varieties of dosas and other tiffen n chat varieties!

Karthikeyan S

Spot for Midnight Zombies and Bankrupted Bachelors 🤘🏼 I will order there almost 4 days a week 👻 Hygienic Place. Cheap yet still maintaining there quality of Food and Taste Pricing - Rs.50 per Variety Dosa Go for Butter Podi Dosa 💯 and Never Buy Parotta and Chapati 👎🏼 Food - 5/5 Price - 5/5 Ambiance - 3/5 Service - 4/5 Overal - 4/5 Good for the Price

Aishwarya Bhargav

When you are reaching your month end and your pocket is almost empty 😉, this is the perfect street food joint to explore ! I tried butter podi dosa and barota. Both were yummy. 😋 I would recommend to try those. Apart from that, the side dishes are kept aside for us to pour as much as we want. Note: This isn't a place to sit and eat as this is a roadside food joint.

Sidhu Siddharth

One of the best tiffin joint in Anna Nagar I believe. Always filled with people but well managed. Consistent taste. We tried take away as well as in dine(stand and eat only). Only veg. Their dosa varieties are so great especially their butter dosa. One of the regular spot. Value for money.

Silas Wesley

Karthik Tiffin Centre! Midnight hungerness? Well this is the right place , which serves you amazing south indian tiffin till 1 am. This as proved to be an famous streetfood joint which is usually crowded all the time even at midnight. They are famous for their varieties of dosa's and their hot hot pongal, apart from these they also serve parotta's, chappathi's , fried rice and veg variety gravies and starters. I'd personally recommend their #Butter_Podi_dosa and #Panner_friedrice. Apart the food, there isnt much of ambience to talk about as its a streetfood joint and its crowded almost all the time. The only draw back is the hygiene of place. The hygiene is quiet bad. Overall a nominal place for good food and for nightzombies foodies,which very pocket friendly. #KarthikTiffinCentre 📍

Karthik Gs

My favourite food spot for long years, Cheap & worth place to have tasty vegetarian bites. Early morning Idly, Vadai & Pongal - Yummy... Dinner time definitely we wont stop with just 1 order, sure will opt for reorder or alternate dish.. Podi Dosai is my most favourite dish. Special mention to Sambhar & chutney..Awesome Taste. Timing is till 11:30pm, useful for late time eaters.

When you are financial broken places like this are really a boon !!! Great food at low budget is always the best combo ☺️ Karthik tiffin centre was well known for its varieties of dosas at cheap rate My order was : Butter dosa Butter podi dosa Both the butter and butter podi dosas were drenched in butter, hot crispy ! The podi used in was spicy and yum and was a perfect blend in mouth with the combination of butter podi sambar and chutney 👌🏻 This place is open till 1 in midnight for the zombies like me out there 😂 Overall must visit place for dosa at cheap rates !

Value for money 5 Provides variety of dosas including some tamil nadu authentic dosas Dosas costs you 40 bucks only Self service for chutneys and sambar Very hygenic and quick service

In place of 6 dosais at a time on the dosai kallu earlier, he makes 8 now. So I don't know about island nations shrinking but the size of their dosai has shrunk multifold offlate. It's nothing but a heartbreak to me. The place remains open till 1a.m

A quick breakfast here daily has become a routine. In love with their food. Pocket friendly and tasty food. Must visit when you are in Anna Nagar

Pocket friendly, south indian, fast food restaurant..!! Any person living in Anna Nagar and neighboring areas for at least 3 to 6 months will definitely know Karthik Tiffin Center.. If you are craving for some good dosas and ok with a not so great Ambiance then this is your Dosa Destination.. Have been visiting this place for almost the last 8 to 10 years or even more, the fast food side has been added only a couple of years ago.. This time had Butter Podi Dosa and Mushroom Masala Dosa.. Super tasty and Super hot to hold it with your hands but isn't that the best thing about such places..!! Overall, Food - 4.5/5 Service - 4.5/5 Ambiance - 3.0/5 Value for Money - 4.5/5

Karthik Tiffin Centre is a small shop on the corner of the road, easily noticeable, thanks to a huge crowd of people standing and eating or waiting for their orders. Karthik Tiffin Centre is a little traditional joint which offers beautiful butter podi dosas, and melt-in-mouth idlis amongst a variety of other dosas, vadaas, etc. The chutneys are easily some of the best chutneys I've eaten in Chennai -rich, flavourful and sharp. Another thing I like about this place is that it's open till around 1.30 a.m., which is great for lazy people like me. Karthik Tiffin Centre is one of my go to places for food in Chennai. Something which I personally think could be bettered here, however, is the seating space, the absence of which leads to a crowd around the restaurant and it's better to be able to sit down for your food in the Chennai heat.

Hygienity is what drives people here.. nightu foodie shop.. can be seen flooded with Audis and Benz. Taste is good for vegetarian.. gobi fried rice is a must try dish here.. Roadside shop though, but can fill your tummy without making a dent on your pocket and not comprising on quality

A small roadside restaurant which has lived upto its reputation for almost 2 decades. best for south indian breakfast. completely fresh preparation, consistently good taste. this small place is definitely giving the near by hyped south indian restaurants a run for their money. food: awesome service: fast ambiance: not applicable (no seating available) cost: max. 200 for 2

Butter podi dosa was brilliant. Gobi noodles tasted good as well , and it's quantity was abundant. Decent pricing overall, considering the quality of food provided.

After being rejected by MMM for blood donation, Vandhadhukku pakathula nalla hotel leyaachu saaptu polaam nu mudivu pannen. Seeing the hype around Karthik Tiffin Center, I decided, earlier, to visit this place. This branch has been recommended as the best branch of the 3 branches in Anna Nagar by a fellow foodie. They sadly don't accept cards. I ordered a Butter Podi Dosa (₹50) and saw it in the making. Wish I had photographed it. There was SO much Podi that the Batter beneath it was hardly seen. When I had it. I knew the hype was real. The butter, though added to the fresh smell, was very subtle in taste. But the Podi, Chance eh illa! The dosa was optimally spicy and the Podi was grainy and bite-able which added to the taste. Recommended visit for people living nearby :)

A small wonder in my locality which is crowded all the time.. very humble ambience(you need to stand and eat holding plate with your hand) but its worth the sacrifice..yesss!!! the food is yummy. i would suggest the following dishes if you wanna visit this place. 1.butter podi dosai 2.cauliflower dosai 3.thakkali dosai 4.masala dosai 5.vadacurry dosai the hygiene makes us bit worried but the taste and the number of side dishes you get with your food wipes that away! :)

Vinod Nair

A person living in Annanagar need not to be told about this place. Have been going here since so many years and thought of posting a review when I went here yet again! You get a variety of Dosas and also Pongal, vadas, and Parotha. Their chutneys are very tasty as well. Earlier they had 3 varieties of Chutney, which is 2 now. Go here for a quick and tasty breakfast.

Joshua Jeremiah

One of the place where you get quick service, at times you need to slog for some time coz of the crowd. Gives you good south Indian dosas with many flavours. Quality is great and they are getting along with the customers all the time.

A good road side restaurant situated in the heart of Anna nagar. The taste of the dishes made here are awesome and mouthwatering. Especially must try dish here is Vadacurry Dosa , it tastes yummy. Sambar and chutney combo is stupendous. On coming to delivery of food, its done really fast even though there are large number of customers waiting in queue. Taste of the food items are very yummy and price of dishes are reasonable. Must try vegetarian restaurant with friends.

I can't call myself a foodie if I haven't been to this place at least once. Fortunately, I've been here multiple times, to hold on to my title. It's more of a landmark for Anna Nagar than being just a eatery. It's the go-to place where delicious and simple South Indian fare. From crispy dosas and vadas to fluffy parottas, their menu has got the basics of satisfying hunger right on target. Oh did I mention? You can have a filling meal here in under 50 bucks per head. If that's not pocket friendly, I'm not sure what is.

A place need not have a great ambience, a high price and ostentation to give good tasty food. U wot go wrong here in your satisfaction index of whatever u have - dosas standout . And coffee is also great

Thousif Syed

First ever 5 rating in my experience.. Karthik Tiffen Centre is one awesome restaurant fr awesome dosas. Have been a regular Eater here for so many years. They have added idlies, parottas, chapathis to their menu.. however dosas are best here.. though I feel the size of dosa is reduced now, you can shell out ur money for the tasty, hygienic dosas, sambar, chutney here.. be informed, after 9 PM the place becomes busy and crowded, you got to wait for a long time for ur order. Haven't tried the other locations, but I have heard this place stands out unique from the other branches. This is a pure veg, south Indian restaurant offering only tiffen items.. enjoy...

Partha Sarrathi

Ignore the ambience and stand in of this place . This place is one of the finest eateries in chennai 😋 every dish of them are quite tasty and never disappoints u . I personally love their podi dosa ,gobi dosa and veg kotthu . Chutney here is amazing total value for money . Love KTC . Always my favourite drop in 😋😀

Shreekrishna

Easily one of the best place to eat food at a lower cost.If you ever think of eating at Anna Nagar for a low cost I think this is the place I can recommend you.Podi Dosa is arguably the best dish they have been serving all this time.

Nagarajan

We can go for cheap and good food..no sitting place have to wait for diiferent type of dosa near good hotels ..still makes people to this tiffin centre for their prices,which we can't get in annanagar

Swaroop

Delicious tasting South Indian Breakfast at an extremely cheap price. No seating or anything fancy that "hygienic" but must try this place..

Anusha Srinivasan

Count on a cheap tasty food :D Love their masala dosa :D It is not pocket friendly. Have been going here since my school days and the taste is still the same :D

Karthikeyan G

If hunger has won the battle with time... This is the place to stop for if u r nearby... Anytime you stop from early morning to midnight... You are guaranteed with good variety of dosas... This is a paradise for many bachelors and students.. Very affordable and you walk out with delight.. Its a combination of GOOD FOOD + ROADSIDE SHOP EXPERIENCE... ppl who like this combination will love this experience... Explore a night time hangout as a I do everytime!!!

James Xaviour

This is one good place to have quick tiffin if you have less time to check in any restaurant. They have variety of DOSA menu during night. They serve decent veg tiffin at affordable rate which is real value for money. They need to improve their sambar quality which used to good and getting poor recently. Overall one of the better quick eatery in Anna Nagar.

Jubilian Stanislaus

If you are in the mood for a tasty, authentic, quick dining with the bill making you raise your eyebrows with happiness, then this IS the place. This place is always crowded due to the location and the food. Variety of dosas and Tiffen items are great. Fast food items at the night aren't mean either. One can have there, take aways and also eat sitting inside the car. At night this is a comfortable place to eat good Tiffen. Modern and sophisticated thattu kadai experience. Must try and I'm sure you will repeat.

Vishal Pandiyan

If you are so hungry and want some quick decent dosa's, you can try out this place. KTC was one of the favourite fast food joints for the residents of AnnaNagar, but now it has lost its quality and taste. Earlier this place used to be so good that you'll find more crowd here than the nearby restaurants. Pricing is pocket friendly.
