Amazing food
nice hotel to have vegetarian food at a reasonable cost in the t nagar area. the ambience at the ground floor is not so great but it is okay. car parking is bit inconvenient due to the space and the location. service was done promptly and clean.
My Experience With Shri Balajee Bhavan was good.
Usual South Indian North and Chinese Vegetarian Food menu.
It was good and neat.
It has Fine Dining with many Sofas and Chairs with Air conditioning at First Floor
Its's Located in Thyagaraja Road Pondy Bazaar T.Nagar.
Okay, so last month I was at this place late evening. This place was suggested by a local lady standing just below this bhavan. Thanks to her I got to meet the manager (i hope you remember me) who was so kind enough to make sure I don’t face language barrier and have the best meal from their outlet. So I ordered one podi oothapam which was a mix veg oothapam with some local sabzi and sambhar with coconut chutneys and one filter coffee as suggested by the manager. I really had an amazing evening meal. Would love to go there again and try something new from their menu. Since I am not based in Chennai, would love to have one outlet here if you guys can.
It's my second time, I visited the place. Quiet crowded in the evenings and that's bound to happen being in the heart of lonely bazaar.
Downstairs general dining and upstairs AC room.
Stairs are quiet steep so elderly people need to be extra careful.
Parking is a problem better if you walk but crossing road isn't easy.
The ambience is not calm, quite loud I would say.
Food comes on time and the service is decent.
We ordered roti and butter paneer masala. Fried idli's plus cauliflower dosa. The food was decent.
Quantity fine and taste ok.
Cleanliness ok
Hand wash and bathroom well maintained.
Shri Balaajee Bhavan, located in the ever crowded streets of Pondy bazaar, is one of the best veg restaurants. This is usually my 'go to' place when it comes to breakfast. They are usually open pretty soon compared to the other restaurants in the surrounding. I had been here, mostly with my family, some four or five times. Here goes my review on various dining experiences..
I usually go with Mini tiffin here. You get to have one Idly, Dosa or Poori, vada, Pongal, Coffee/tea and sweet (usually kesari). Taste wise I can't really complain! I have also tried Pongal - Vada combo. It's pretty good and goes well with Chutney and sambhar. Even their coffee is usually strong and refreshing to have!
I would say that this restaurant serves one of the best breakfast/tiffin in this locality. Definitely worth visiting.
Happy eating :)
ORDERED MEALS AND ITS WAS GOOD MORE THAN EXPECTATION. SPECIALLY THE PAYASAM WAS SUPERB.....
FOOD PACKING : 4/5
FOOD QUALITY : 4/5
MUST TRY IT ONCE...
ADVICE: PLEASE KEEP BIG APPALAM.
Was passing by pondy Bazar, just like that visited this hotel. Had veg meals, sambar, rasam, more kulambu was awesome and two poriyal ulti taste.. It was worth having for 95 rs..
Easily one of the best food joints in Pondy Bazaar.
Ambience: Lots of activity always with inflow and outflow of guests. Go for A/C hall if you prefer silence.
Food: Great taste especially their dosas
Variety: Wide variety
Service: Always ready to serve with a smile. What you give is what you get.
Price: Very high value for money

Overall, it is a good hotel to have good food all three times. Starting from a morning coffee till dinner, this hotel does better. Has few branches in other places in the city.
Little costly, but the quality is good.
The ground floor has non ac service, and the first floor has ac service.
In the Pondy Bazar area, this hotel can be chosen if looking for a quick, not so high costly hotel. Will be mostly crowded only.
Food was really good and tasty. Its kids and elderly people friendly place with low spicy option. We visited with family during evening time and ordered evening snacks, Mild dinner, Coffee and Tea. Everything is fresh and hot. I would definitely recommend this place. My kids like the fish tank very much. Good place to conbine your shopping and food in pondy Bazaar. (They have non A/C hall in downstairs which is crowded, so we chose A/C restaurant in first floor)
We visited the place at about 7:30 AM on a typical Saturday and the food was really nice. I ate 4 idlis with sambar and chutney and the food was really filling. The filter coffee was also really tasty. I will definitely come here again for breakfast.
I have been to this place a lot of times since childhood. This restaurant has both AC and non AC halls. The food is very tasty and the rate is economical. During weekends and peak hours it is very crowded and we might have to wait in the queue.
My all time favourite is the idly vadai combo, but all their south indian tiffin options are a must try.
The coffee is good. Must visit when around pondybazaar.

Pondy Bazzar Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
Nice pure veg restaurant... lot of veg variant of famous non-veg delicacies like Kari dosai, idli salna,.. tried Kari dosai, tasty 👌
Went to Balaajee Bhavan at night. The restaurant is always busy because it's located at Pondy Bazaar. The service is good but sometimes it takes longer. We had dahi puri, chapati and plain roast. The dahi puri came first and was really tasty. The dosa and chutneys tasted good. The chapati was okay but the kurma was just so-so. The food was served on banana leaves which was good.
I went to this restaurant recently. Located in the prime location - Pondy Bazaar, T Nagar, Chennai. The quality and taste of the food was very good. An authentic veg restaurant. Good to go along with family and children too.
One of the best ever coffee that I have had.. You can smell the flavour of the brewing coffee even in front of the restaurant. Apart from that, other foods were also good. Especially they provide zeera water in the morning.
