Had been here few times for lunch... very calm place.. parking available in front of the resto...tried their urulai vanthagal, poondu kolambu, steamed rice , Plain biryani , kozhi saaru.
Urulai vathagal - at its best.golden fried baby potatoes with perfect spices 👌🏻
Steamed rice - basmati rice well cooked . need to increase the portion of rice as it goes easily with poondu kolambu and urulai vathagal.
Poondu kolambu- Delicious as home made. Need to be more spicy .
Plain biryani - Definitely,this is not the place for biryani lovers... it's just in between biryani and tomato rice
Kozhi saaru- Above average.

Service : 4
Quantity : 3
Price : 3.5

Located just behind Marudeeswarar Temple Tank on East Mada Street, this is quite a known and easily accessible location.
The décor, ambience, friendliness of the staff and quality : everything was quite good.
We had Tawa Fish Fry which was boneless and spices were really good.
Then came Mangalorean chicken Kasi Gossi (or something similar sounding) which was not boneless and had just three pieces of chicken.
Alongwith these, we had a garlic naan, a plain naan and a garlic roti.
The bill came to 535/- including 25/- service charge plus we have 25/- as tip.
Overall experience was good. The chicken pieces in the gravy could have been more, I felt.

Looks like a very odd place from the outside but as you proceed inside, you'll be taken aback by the orderly arranged tables, faint and soothing lighting and a good sense of mood sets in immediately. 
Once we settled in, we went ahead and ordered Chicken Parotta, Kari Dosa, and Kerala Kozhi Nadan Curry to accompany them. It took a little while for preparation. Kari Dosa was exceptional. Chicken Parotta was a little dry on the corners, otherwise totally great. I haven't had Kerala style Nadan curry before. It was different and tasted good. Went well with the Dosa and Parotta. The dinner was excellent. 
The hotel offers five different cuisines, which is good. The seating arrangement is neat but a little cramped. Otherwise, a great place to try different styles of food.

Have been to this place many times as well as requested home delivery. The food is great.. My favorites are Kodi vepudu, era melagu perattal and chicken manchurian.. Gives a homely touch to the taste..Service and delivery is prompt. One advantage is they send across card machine to swipe for payment during door delivery which even bug restaurants around that area don't do.. Makes payment more easier..

The complete ala carte restaurant!
As you enter the heavy old fashioned wooded door you find a neatly arranged small place.
The menu has dishes special dishes of the 4 southern states plus Chinese.
We tried #Steamed rice with #Thakkali pappu, #Mushroom melagu peratal, #Urulai vathakal and #veg noodles.
The steamed rice was basmati rice, with ghee, thakkali pappu and urulai it was great. The mushroom was different and good, veg noodles and banana split desert were OK. For all the main dishes sides should be ordered as no sides will be provided.
Have tried the #Bisbela bath and #Baby corn pepper salt once before both were good.
One can try this place if one is ready for the complete ala carte style.

Great place to have good tasty South Indian food. Inside Taj Coromandal, this is a fine dining restaurant. The ambience is too good. Starting from cutlery to the seating, lighting everything is perfect. I used to frequently visit earlier. It's been quite some time since this visit for a family lunch. The Veg tali was very tasty and quite filling. The Manager made us a cake after noticing that we had come as a family and celebrating. This was a very nice gesture. The coffee and the coffee ice cream was outstanding. Staff are attentive to details and very courteous. Five star all the way.

The food, the ambience and the staff create a truly memorable experience! The kids simply loved it!! The entire team at the spice restaurant are far too efficient and kind.

⭐️Location: Easy to identify on the Main road ⭐️Reservation: Call them and reserve a table to avoid disappointments ⭐️Parking: They have valet parking for cars. There is a bike parking available as well ⭐️Floor: It’s located in the ground floor and the end of the floor ⭐️Ambience: TamilNadu rustic karaikudi Chettinad decor transfers you to a new place ⭐️Staff: we were served by Govind, Malick, Ram/Ravi . All the staff are great , courteous, polite and give attention to each and every patron . They go extra mile and accommodate dietary requirements and up existing menu serving based on availability. Kudos to entire team ⭐️Food: we went on weekday lunch and ordered Fish and Meat Thali . We were made comfortable by setting apron. First came the colourful chutneys , chips & crisp & vadagams . We really enjoyed vadagams which were both tasty and has very less oil. I think it’s air fried . We were then given Tomato pepper soup which did justice to the name. It has both tangy profile and pepper taste. Good soup to clear your food pipe and warm up your stomach We were then served Thali which has veg curry, veg poriyal/side , chicken curry , fish curry, mutton curry , Idiyappam , parotta , appam , paayasam. I thoroughly enjoyed fish curry and chicken curry which were so soft like butter and super yummy . They also upped menu and gave us wheat parotta to try and egg appam both were good. They keep refilling the sides and every refill was worth it Then came white rice, sambhar , paruppu podi and ghee . You must try their paruppu podi and ghee it’s out of the world. The sambhar is prepped using their in house spices by the chef themselves . We also enjoyed rasam and curd rice And they gave complimentary elaneer payaasam to us and again it was unlimited . We asked them twice and was served happily . They end it with filter coffee . The server will cool down the filter coffee in style . And finger bowl was served . And as it’s a birthday occasion, they gave us complimentary birthday cake which was yummy and gave a special wish. Overall it’s a fantabulous experience from the moment we stepped in and left. They really made our day and created a core memory . It’s really Wah Taj! ⭐️Enjoy the experience with your loved ones on their special day❤️ Please Mark this review as HELPFUL to encourage such elaborate reviews

One of the best star studded South Indian cuisine in Chennai, the spices and other condiments are all hand grated, giving the same taste, three sixty-five days a year. My personal favourite menu items are the Kozhi kurumilaguchaaru, kori ghee roast and the pallipalayam chicken biriyani, an absolute go to dishes with well emulsified spices, perfectly cooked meat and rice. If you love spicy and flavourful food, you will NOT be disappointed with this set of items. My special shoutout to waiter Bala, one of the most genuine and friendly waiters I've come across, despite the restaurant being packed to the brim, he kept his cool and catered to the needs of the guests and was patiently explaining every other menu items on order, head chefs Jeba and Siva and executive chef Sujan, these are the people who ensured both Southern and spice are in prefect quantities in the entire Southern spice experience with consistency.

The number of stars is less for their food and service. Madhav’s service was unmatched. He suggested the right items as per the taste. He even offered to take pictures and provided complimentary dessert - coconut payasam and kafi ice cream which undoubtedly are the best I ,you or anyone has ever tasted. Coming to the food, 1. Vanjaram podi varuval- the 2 seer fish fillets were perfectly cooked, soft inside and the spices were a perfect combination. I am a fish lover and this is a paradise. 2. Mutton ishtew- perfect blend of coconut, mutton and curry leaves. Madhav suggested to try it with Appam which was an amazing combination. This was one of my favourites and is a must try 3. Rayalaseema mamsam Biryani - the authentic Andhra style biryani had a hot and spicy flavour. It catered to our spicy taste buds along with raita 4. Southern spice ginger punch - it was a sweet combination of ginger with coconut water and lemon and the ginger taste was dominant. 5. Coconut Payasam- this was served complimentary and must say that we were lucky to have tasted it. It had subtle sweet taste. Best part was it was made of jaggery instead of sugar. 6. Kafi ice cream - subtle sweet coffee ice cream which was home made. Ambiance- it is definitely beautiful with silver coated spoons and copper glasses. The ceramic South Indian style plates were different. Overall I’m glad we visited the place during our stay.
