One of the best chettinad restaurant I've ever had
This place serves authentic Chettinad food for reasonable prices. This being one of the restaurants which has been there for a lot time don't expect it to be swanky. But they the dining area is neat and spartan. They serve food in banana leaf. And all the waiters wear black caps which ensure their hair doesn't fall into the food. Servers are efficient and cordial.
We have ordered Mutton biriyani, Meals, their special chicken curry and seer fish fry. Mutton biriyani was a bit bland for me especially the Mutton pieces. The fish fry also could have done with some more masala. Special chicken curry and the meals were very good. The chicken soup which came with meals and biriyani was very good too.
One of my favourite restaurant for south indian cuisine. There service was quick and prompt😍. Especially their food taste was marvellous. I am big fan of their Nattu kozhi Biriyani and vanjaram fry. If your south indian food lover then this place is must try one. Goli soda is similar to other places only. They serve unlimited non veg meals if you have large appetite than you can try out this place

1) Non Veg meals served with white rice,Mutton gravy,Chicken gravy,Natukozhi Gravy,Fish gravy,Crab gravy,Kootu,Poriyal,Rasam,Buttermilk,Green Banana,Chicked Soup.
2) Crab Masala
3) Sura Puttu
4) Prawn thokku
5) Mutton Biriyani
6) Egg oomelette
7) Brain fry.
This is a traditional Tamilnadu Chettinadu restaurant and the dishes had the exact spices which it should have.Non veg meals was good and the highlight is the Crab
masala which tasted excellent and we should use both our hands to eat the crab, because the Crab size was big enough.It tasted superb, still I remember the taste.
They serve Food in Banana Leaf, that is good for health.
While going for lunch going little early is recommeded around 12 Noon, so that you can try all the dishes, if you go late there will be very less choice left for your.
Live to Eat!
Happy Dining!
Beautiful Chettinad food. Not mindlessly spicy like the other over hyped restaurants in Chennai. These guys are serving the real Chettiand l food in Chennai
Went to this place today to try non veg meals
We ordered non veg meals
Meals was good, chicken gravy was very nice
Mutton and fish gravy was good too
Rice and gravy unlimited
We ordered vanjaram fry it was good and size was big value for money
Mutton chukka was good but quantity was so less
Special chicken roast was ok but gravy was good
Almost a great non veg meal treat
Service was also good though they had a huge rush all the waiters were good at service
Parking is there but when too much crowd it’s crampt
One of the best meals corner in Chennai
Extremely good food. Visited this restaurant right from the beginning when they started this restaurant. Almost all the dishes are good. No one has matched this restaurant till date. Late CM MGR’s chef is the owner of this restaurant.
we were in Chennai along with friends staying at the AMC club when checked with everyone about a nice place to have food everyone referred us to Amma chettinadu Restaurant so went there and took parcel orders Crab curry, Nalli Bokka curry, Brain Fry, Liver fry food was decent but not as much as it was spoken but it was very economical
Visited the restaurant little late during dinner . So some of the items are not available. Their egg dosai was good. And briyani tasted decent. Muttom chukka - nice. Omlette n half boil we're good.
I just know about this restaurant by my friend he is a regular visitor for this hotel. One of the best restaurants in chennai for authentic chettinad food and give perfect taste. Simply superb. Maranna mass
Are you looking for nice ambient dining then you may consider this place. Authentic chettinad restaurant. Spicy and flavourful taste. MGR photo collections and MGR movie songs were played while we enjoy our food here. Truly an experience. Do check this place out. 👍
Non veg meals was gud.. quantity of mutton sukka n prawns 65 was literally microscopic..taste was gud bt quantity was too less than price...crab masala lacked flavour
Food quality and taste, service and atmosphere everything was good, except portion size. Though ordered side dish items were tasty, they were over priced for the quantity served. For example, chicken 65 had about 7 to 8 small pieces (may be 100g) but priced at 250 Rs., same goes with pichu potta chettinad pepper chicken as well.
Some of you who might not like much of ghee flavor in Biryani, this might not be the biryani for you. On the contrary, ghee lovers will love the taste.
They serve complimentary chicken soup on arrival for all, but didn't like the taste though (tasted more like diluted salna).
Service was good and prompt.
MGR songs in background gives you evergreen retro feelings while eating.
Night tiffin at Amma restaurant..what a soft and delicious poratta ...mutton chukka simply superb. Must taste again.
This place in my wishlist finally I have tasted in this restaurant all the dishes are tasty specially mutton Chuka and Natu kozhi soup ambience also good 👍

Went today for lunch. Ordered Meals, viral fish curry, mutton chukka, crab lollipop and rabbit roast. For the price tha quantity is less. Ambience is good and service is quick. Mutton sukka is a must try. No flavor in crab lollipop. Viral fish is so soft.
Great food with excellent service and staff. Enjoyed their non vegetarian meals. Had chicken and prawn 65, mutton chukka, fish curry, egg podimas, squid varuval. Portions were slightly small but the taste was authentic. Loved it!
One of the best places to have spicy, tasty and piping hot food, Lunch or dinner you get to eat the most homely food, be it your regular meals or briyani or tiffin you will find it is as tasty as you would like it to be. I have tasted briyani both mutton and chicken,regular non vegetarian meals, kola urundai, mutton, chukka, chicken pepper fry, nethili fry, brain fry, sura puttu and also the whole range of tiffin items, nothing can be found wanting. Give it a try and you will be a regular. You will be hearing all the hits of MGR as a bonus. Only minus is lack of parking and absence of valet!
This was my first time at this place — super impressed with the quality , service , taste of the food. The mutton sukka was really impressive- almost as good as Madurai. All dishes were super tasty and plain rice with the different meat dishes were stunning — must try :)
It was a sheer delight the chettinad dishes were authentic taste.Fish was very fresh as if straight from the sea to the frying pan.Mutton Sukka and egg bhurji with Appam were delectable.To top it the perfect balance of sweet and sour lemon soda.Stringly recommend.
