Since it is purataasi, me and my friends decided to go to a veg restaurant and we visited vrindhavan on a Sunday and I didn't even expect that there would be craze for vegetarian, was amazed to see the crowd. One of the best veg.thali I've ever had❤️
😋Maharaja thali - It is a combination of North Indian and south Indian thali and tasted marvelous💯
Panner tikka masala - The Paneer was juicy and tender, loved it to the core❤️
American chopsuey - combination of fried noodles and gravy. Tasted yummy😍

Visited Vrindavan on a holiday. It was crowded and the first vibes we got from this place was positive. Compact place with flashy, vintage interiors.
We ordered South Indian meals, Burmese Spaghetti, golden fried baby corn, vegetable sheekh kebab, veg fried rice, butter roti, paneer tikka masala and spicy corn cheese nachos.
Burmese spaghetti was sautéed with cream cheese and served with veg curry. It was delicious. Paneer tikka masala was tasty with the paneer being soft and juicy. Roti was too hard. Fried rice was pleasant. Golden fried baby corn was batter fried baby corn fritters with a bland taste. The thali had usual components and tasted South Indian , nothing special and nothing to complain. The two best dishes of our order were Spicy corn cheese nachos and veg sheekh kebab. Kebab was damn hot and tasty and the green chutney served with it was lip smacking. The nachos were served with a creamy corn based gravy and topped with grated cheese. The gravy was heavenly and served as a dip.
They serve less spicy food so spice monsters like me might feel off but they do make up for it by adding perfect amounts of salt, cream, butter and other spices.
The food was top notch with very good quality and service. The prices are on the expensive side for a vegetarian restaurant. Paid ₹1710 in all.
good place for south Indian foods, we went for breakfast and was very happy with the Idly and sambhar. Vada could have been crispier but the accompanying chutneys were tasty. Pongal was good. Coffee is fantastic. Parking is a breeze. must visit place if you are in the area.
Toooooooo crowded on weekends.
But their food is worth the wait.
Their french onion soup is drool worthy.
Loved the mushroom augratin..
The jigarthanda was average.
The place was one hell of an experience,ambience was fine but the pantings mesmerised me and the food was delicious. Platters were awesome with great taste.
ICON OF OLD MADRAS
I happened to visit this place after a very long time with my family for dinner. It is situated very close to semmozhi poonga. They have ample parking space and banquet halls attached. Entering into it brought me back some nostalgic feel of our very own city MADRAS. Was quite skeptical as I was not sure how the standard was still. This Vrindavan is a multi cuisine restaurant serving both north indian, chinese and south delicacies and hence we chose this place. Wonderful interiors, Gets crowded easily. I must say the standard is still maintained. The taste was really good. Dosa is something out of the world and a specialty must try here. However, I was disappointed with Poori. Never expected such a big and thick one. Otherwise, all other menu that we had ordered did taste really good. One of the decent and iconic restaurants for a family gathering. Rating- 3.5
Went to Vrindavan restaurant for a Sunday lunch with family and oh boy this place is really famous amongst the masses. Didn't expect so many people considering it's an old restaurant but I was wrong. Had to wait for 10-15 minutes but the wait was worth it. Delicious food, quick service and courteous staff. What else does one asks for? We ordered 1 north Indian thali, 2 South Indian thali and a Maharaja thali. The quantity of the food was appropriate - not too much that one finds it difficult to finish and not too less that one is still hungry. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to have some lip smacking food.

Visited this place cos it was nearby, after watching a drama at Narada Gana Sabha. We were quite late, entered around 10 pm.
We settled for some rotis, paneer subzi, dal and fried rice (Jain). The food was heavenly. All the dishes were piping hot and cooked to perfection. Very polite and courteous staff. Do ask for their Jain Menu if you're off onions & garlic on a few occasions.
Will definitely visit again and this time for a leisurely meal.
Visited this place a second time recently after checking out Zudio.
The food was as good as always but we were sitting on a table against the wall in a dark corner and there were 2-3 small cockroaches on the walls.
Started with the French onion soup which was delicious and then moved on to good old masala Pappad and cheese stick roll.
For the main course it was Mughalai biryani and kashmiri pulav. The food was not spicy but extremely flavorful and tasty.
Towards the end, after I had completed my meal, the small cockroaches ran to the plate and glass of water which completely ruined the experience for me :(
Guys please improve upon the maintenance.
Our family’s go to place for South Indian. We have been going here for years and I haven’t seen quality drop even once. Service is top notch. Not a big fan of their Chinese and continental though
If you want to feel old Chennai charm this is the place
I was accompanied by local friends as a guest to this place ,not able to click picture
Enteranc it's self make you feel you are walking in old Chennai restaurant and old Chevrolet of the first owner welcomes you at the parking
You need to wait for your turn as it's always buzzing with people of all generation
Though it's famous for thali and it's three course meals in Thali make it stand out from Other thaali services
You can order individual items too
We were welcomed my hot tammato soup
We order south Indian thali and Mumbai thali
South Indian as name suggest it has combination of rice rasam sambar and other south famous items
Mumbai thali also have sambar in it but they server tandoori roti , different sabaji and paneer tikka
You can refill your thaali as much time you want
Fresh fruit ice-cream in the end not only full your tummy but also your eyes and palate
Must visit if you are in Chennai!!!
Team is helping and smiling face gives warmth

I visited this place for lunch after many years. It was amazing food at reasonable prices.
The South Thali was excellent with the best dish being the sambar. The ala carte menu is also quite extensive. Apart from the Thali we had ordered the Veg Augratin, Crispy Potato with Hot Garlic Sauce, Schezwan Noodles. All items were tasty.
If you're in and around the Chennai Alwarpet area this place is definitely worth a visit!!!
Great fine dining vegetarian restaurant which has Udupi (Karnataka) style south Indian dishes and their cuisine ranges from South Indian to North Indian and also has numerous continental options as well. Their Bisibelabath, cheese corn Augustin are a must try! If you have an appetite for south Indian then their Mysore masala dosa, Onion rava, sambar vada, and rasa vada are delicious.
Loved this restaurant because they are serving a lot of veg varieties along with desserts. We have maharaja thali which includes a lot of beg dishes which is of 80% i wont eat but value for money. Service was top notch and value for money as well. The best interiors with a cool atmosphere. This one is situated inside the woodlands hotel and its a group of hotels to be chosen.

You will get some mid 80’s hotel feeling here. Always crowded in the weekends especially dinner time. Located in one of Chennai’s prime area. Multiple halls available for dine in with plenty of food options. The service is unprofessional. The co ordination between supervisors and delivery guys is pathetic. We are visiting this place for past 10 years. The same service guys are there with the same attitude and service. Despite of this service this hotel is always full. So people like us also used to them 😄
I took a lunch there and ordered South Indian Dish. It consisted of 3 Puri (mini), Dahi, 2 South Indian Sabzi (mix veg. & beetroot poriyal), Sambhar, Rice, Daal, Appam (Papad), Rasam, Raita, and Poricha Kulumbu. Out of everything, I loved Poricha Kulumbu. It was so so delicious. It is a must recommend for those who outsiders who visit here.
Been eating here for over 35 years with my father too. The murals inside are completely breathtaking. The food is absolutely authentic and over the years the standard has not changed. Absolutely glad it still is holding up. Anyone for veg meals in Chennai must come here.

Woodlands is possibly the last hotel in the city to survive the entry of foreign brands and over priced Indian chains to remain relevant and affordable.
The hotel is indeed woody and personifies a Chennai which is still genteel yet modern and Vrindavan fits this description to a T.
Vrindavan is themed with paintings of Lord Krishna's life and is slightly dimly lit.
The food is an all vegetarian affair with four types of thalis (meaning plate or a meal) - South Indian, North Indian, Special or Maharaja and Executive.
We tried the South Indian meal served in a round stainless steel plate over a banana leaf.
The meal came with a tomato soup, beetroot curry, pooris or unleavened Indian flat bread eaten with yellow daal, plain rice eaten with sambar which is a lentil based mixture of vegetables and spices in a tamarind base, koottu or vegetable stew, Sundakkai Vathal Kuzhambu or tangy gravy made of tamarind broth, pulses and dried turkey berries and rasam or mulligatawny soup.
The other accompaniments were raita which is onions and cucumbers in yoghurt and plain fresh yoghurt.
The meal comes with Indian sweets, today was Halva day and vanilla ice cream.
The servings of rice are unlimited.
The service is quick and efficient. This is one restaurant where the clientele is loyal and encompasses three generations or more. Don't believe me? See it for yourself.
Vrindavan and the hotel it is situated in offer that slice of old Chennai which most restaurants capture via old sepia prints :)
Great service, tasty food, reasonable price, amazing pictures of Lord Krishna and the sylvan and verdant settings of Hotel Woodlands make this a must visit place in my view.
Being the restaurant of choice for many it tends to be noisy most times.
Perfect veg restaurant to take your loved family members for a get together. If you inform prior that your group is primarily elders gathering for a special occasion, the manager lets you hold a table a little longer and offers patient service
Car park..big blessing

Today i went again to this restaurant to have my lunch . Exactly at 1130 it was opened. Want to have a decent vegetarian food at Cathedral Road, Chennai at nominal price and ambience? Then your choice should be Vrindavan Restaurant. This Restaurant is part of the famous Woodlands Hotels located just at the entrance of Hotel. You get variety of tasty South Indian tiffin varieties like Idli, Dosa, vada, Poori, Oothappam, Pongal and a number Vegetarian meals like Business Lunch, South Indian Thali, North Indian Plate Meals and Maharaja Thali, which is a Special here, priced at Rs300. While most of the meals have South and North indian items, Maharaja Thali has in addition Soup, Tandoori roti, or naan or even Pooris. You can choose. But all we're soft and good. Naan was not like rubber! Special subjis, Ghee, Sambhar, Rasam, Veg Briyani, curd, Paneer Tikka, and fruit salad with ice cream. You get sufficient quantities of items which can be requested further like Rice. You get a welcome drink too which too good.
It's very tasty. The walls are decorated with Paintings of Krishna and his life, the seating is good, the ambience is perfect and the rates are reasonable. The Baby Corn Bajji is famous here. While business lunch is Rs.238, normal South indian Thali is 257 and North Indian Thali is at Rs.276.
You may like to visit the restaurant with family and friends again as its pocket friendly and calm and quiet too. Plenty of parking space is available inside the hotel and cards and digital payments are accepted. The staff are friendly and helpful. Quiet ambience and not noisy.
Recommended to visit and have a delicious and sumptuous food!
