Chennai Dosa Express - Fresh Kitchen

South Indian thali is pretty yummy but the cheese dosa is not good with cheddar. Mozzarella is better

Short Review:
Extremely disappointed with both the food and hygiene at this restaurant. I would strongly recommend avoiding this place.

Detailed Review:
I visited this restaurant on May 31st to pick up my order, which included two portions of batura along with one chole curry and one rajma curry. Unfortunately, the experience from start to finish was poor.

When I arrived to pick up the food, the staff member handling my order was in the middle of eating. Upon seeing my order, he got up and began packing the food without wearing any gloves. What was more concerning was that while handling the curry containers, his fingers were inside the containers while scooping and sealing them. This level of hygiene is simply unacceptable for any food establishment.

As for the food itself, both the chole and rajma curries were extremely watery and bland, lacking any real flavor or consistency. It seemed like boiled legumes were just added to spiced tomato water. The batura was hard and dried out, almost as if it had been sitting out uncovered for days. Overall, the meal was nearly inedible.

To make things worse, the next morning (June 1st), my wife unknowingly ordered the idly-vada combo for breakfast. The peanut chutney was very watery, the sambar was lacking in flavor, and while the idly and vada were passable, the meal overall was not enjoyable.

I don’t usually write such strong reviews, but the combination of poor hygiene, subpar food quality, and overall lack of care in both preparation and service left me very disappointed. This place seriously needs to reevaluate its kitchen practices and food standards. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and works on improving both food quality and hygiene for the sake of its customers and staff.

I ordered masala idly and podi idly. I can't express how good those were and filling. Idlis were soft and sambhar was also good. Last we finished up ordering filter coffee which was also not bad. Everything feels like fresh. During my visit we are the only customer but I can see they are making fresh so obviously taking time to serve food.

Do not eat here if you want to spoil your stomach or have a diarrhoea! Food is not fresh and sambar was spoilt, they had just added water to it, yet it gave away because it was watery & frothy! The vada was definitely more than a day old! Its horrible! Doesn’t even deserve a star! Very very horrible! See the bubbles in the sambar

Vegetarian options: The menu says Indian vegetarian and vegan. The masala dosas and sambar which were vegetarian dishes were great. Would recommend for vegetarians.

Terrible food and would never order again even for free. I am certain it sells stale food, idly and vada are hard. Puri is oddly crispy.
