Chennai Express - Table reservation

We had a family meal at Chennai Express, with four vegetarians and one vegan in the party. Not only was there a separate vegan menu available on request, but the server was very helpful in pointing out which of the dips served with the papadams were non-vegan (only the mint one, for reference). The quality of the food in general was excellent, and the portions were very generous. We were told that all of the food, including the delicious ginger ice-cream dessert, was freshly prepared on site. We visited mid-week, and the restaurant was fairly busy. I imagine it's worth booking ahead of time, especially at weekends. A very enjoyable dinner.

I would have walked by this place on the way to Festival Place but the smell of amazing curry drew us in. They clearly mark on the menu what has dairy in it so you know what is vegan friendly. I was very happy with what I ordered, aubergine and okra dishes. I would definitely return.

Really nice restaurant with authentic good food. This is coming from an Indian who has very high standards of what South Indian food should be like! I thoroughly recommend trying this place. As a vegan, we found several things on the menu. The staff is knowledgeable.
