Review Thirukkural Unavagam - Chennai (Madras)

They promote healthy and back to basics, traditional food which is very welcome in a fast world. We had the limited menu variety rice with millets ( sambar, curd and seeraga samba veg biriyani) and another traditional rice lunch. Both were quite filling and you can go in for namalvar/ buffet option if you are really starving. Otherwise their portion sizes are generous. We also tried the vazhapoo vadai (banana flower based) coconut milk based, dates milk shake which was really filling. All the dishes are well prepared, hygenically and nutritionally and served on banana leaves.They have a little store selling oils and limited grocery. Restaurant is upstairs, no lift. Plenty of street parking, no issues there. A few reviews talk about sheet roofing and place getting hot, but I found it cooled well with 3 AC at mid day, so that seems to be addressed. Overall a place worth frequenting and may I add that its easier on the pocket too. Don't expect 5 * amenities like valet parking, welcome drink and fancy menus...if you have realistic expectations this is a excellent place with full value for money.

It's healthy veg meal , basically it has two meals which is unlimited and cost around 200 including gst . It's has 5to6 millet rice veg salads in country style . If you taste all the items it will be filling . It's not on main road so parking is ease . Restroom facility is available in same floor . Must try you will not regret .

Went to this place for dinner. This is located in Gandhi Nagar. I called up the restaurant before reaching there for reservation. As it was a weekday, they told us to walk in. After we reached, we were allotted table immediately. We ordered veg omelette, tricolour poori, special dosa, vazha poo vadai. All of the dishes were good. We had ginger lemon juice and dates juice. Both were good. Value for money and pocket friendly and healthy food too! Must visit place.

Like the concept..healthy but tasty meal. Must try👍👍 Even the salads are interesting and kid friendly as well. Liked their nammalvar meal. They serve is minimal quantities do serve more when asked for to avoid food waste.

No words for appreciation!! Name it self enough to give five star and all other services and taste of the food ambience will take this restaurant to 20star rating. if it exist in this platform.

Wonderful lunch i had ever. Quality first. No white sugar only jaggery and palm sugar No synthetic flavours Superb taste of millet varieties. A must try place.

Simple and neat ambience. Traditional millet food. Buffet lunch is worth a try at 150 INR.

Great restaurant serving some healthy foods located just a few steps away from adayar..

Good place to get healthy foods. Should try their lunch and Dinner combos

I had a chance to visit this place with my mom and she loved it... The concept, the place, the food everything was nice. They don't put maida, sugar or refine oil in any of their food item. I found ghee/gingely oil in good amount in their food. Anyways it's a better option. So go out there n try it out.

Wanna try our traditional millet foods, visit tirukural unavagam.

Good traditional food restaurant. Millet varieties are used in different menus. Try their veg omelet and vada. Interiors are good with nice concept on the walls. They sell also traditional snacks and cold pressed groundnut oil. Good to have few Tamil literature books and Tamil quoted T shirts. Worth try. You will love to eat traditional veg foods and snacks. Now they started with Buffet concept at week ends. Early bird offer 20% off on bill

A very good place the one can find to treat their taste buds by the traditional millet, small grains , and organic foods. They have mentioned that all the food menus prepared here contains no white sugar and no refined oil. A great plus. Little bit costlier than a normal food cafe. ( Affordable because of their raw materials and way of preparation) Infrastructure and ambience are also quite different from other cafes. Foodies can give a try once .

Food is very tasty. Service is at snails pace. Tried millet special and the traditional meals. Both were good. The salads are additional on the Virundhu and are good. Try to reach there early for lunch. Only one AC was functional when we went and this made it very difficult to have a pleasant meal.

I've never in my life got a chance to taste a food with this protein rich and unprocessed! It is one of the best traditional good restaurant located at Gandhi Nagar, Adyar. Located in the peaceful silent calm place where you can enjoy every bit of food you eat. It's a blissful experience. When you crave for it want to try traditional food. I strongly recommend this place. Thank you.

Anyone looking to go back to their roots will love this place. While definitely there are areas to improve, the idea itself is worth an applause

I like this place and the service and teast of the food is good

thirukural caters providing a healthy and good foods to the people, having food here is like getting health as well...here we can get millet varieties, dosa and meals are cooked by "kuthiraivali, samai, thinai " rices, the above said rices are millets and it's doesn't have sugar diabetic complaints, and they are giving ragi foods also good for health. They are giving food medicine. ...

thirukural unavagam is a bold attempt by suresh jeganthan who surprissingly happened to be an post graduate engineer held on some good positions in an manufacturing company in chennai. he started this to create awareness about our traditional foods and i am one of those lucky guys to visit this htotel frrom day one in karayanchavadi . its happy to see him grow and create awareness and educate people . the breakfast and lunch menu is good . even though its a bit costly its worth the penny as they use quality food ingredients which are glutten free gut friendly esp millets which are rich in fibre.

It was very amazing previously. But the last two times I have been facing a lot of stomach troubles.otherwise it's amazing especially mini idli and the tea

Been to this place last week attracted by the name. It has beautiful ambiance with good wall paints. Food is very tasty and the workers are very friendly. Happened to know that they have started this inspired by Nammazhvar principles. Wish they become successful with more customers visiting them and wish them to continue the need of going back to millet foods. Thumbs up guys!!!
