Chennai Café

Chennnai Cafe has been my favorite restaurant for years for great southern Indian buffet. Best in town for service and food. On Fridays, they have cooked to order Dosa included in the buffet. I highly recommend for fantastic Indian cuisine.

Went here today for the first time. Their AD came up on my Facebook on several occasions and we wanted to try it out for a while. So we finally thought we'd give them a try today. We went there for their dinner buffet on this Mother's Day. The food was great and the waiting staff was really good as well. Our waiter (Sai Kumar) was very attentive to our table and every time we had 1 plate that was done with, he would take it away very promptly. On a few occasions when I would discard our trash (to make it easier for them), he, with a smile, would persist that we are his guests and that they are the ones that should take care of the trash. For dessert, they had 5 choices, and the main buffet stands was divided into a vegetarian side and a non-vegetarian side, with the condiments in between. They had a complete pani-poori stand with a staff member filing the pani-poori with the bhaji, as well as a dosa/masala dosa stand and an appam stand, that have staff cooking them on a made to order basis. They also have Mango Lassi and Tea (with milk) available in dispensers. We really liked the food and the variety of choices available. My kids loved the food too (especially the Mango Lassi). They ate so well that, after eating they didn't have room for ice cream. Chennai-Café was really busy today and was probably packed at 100% capacity, and whether it be the food in the buffet table being revolted properly, the empty plates available to use, or the waiters removing the used plates from your table, they seemed to have everything under control. We were very happy with the experience we had even after driving 30 minutes to get there. If you plan to go for a dinner buffet, I suggest you reach there at 6 pm (when they re-open for dinner) to get better parking and because you can also beat the rush of people, because they will be very full. We'll definitely be back. I would normally give a review like this 5 STARS, but it was really hot in the restaurant, and it seemed that the AC was off, so, to maintain honesty and integrity on my reviews, I need to take away 1 star. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 4 STARS FROM ME !!

Had their food at a privately catered party. It was very good. Look at all the reviews written for the food quality & the service at the restaurant. Mostly those written more than 2 years ago were 4 & 5 stars while the recent ones are 1 or maybe 2 stars. It tells me that their quality & service has taken a hit. The present owners should take note.
