Poonam's Gujarati Bhojanalaya

The place to go for authentic Gujarati Thali meals in Chennai. <br/ <br/ The place is small and they serve only thali meals. It's the regular fare, something like the old world mess types. <br/ <br/ If you don't look at ambience and hare happy to share your table (yes, it gets crowded) , you will enjoy the great good. Service is super fast like in any mess. <br/ <br/ Great taste and value for money.

Wish I could rate this restaurant 10 on 5. <br/ <br/ That’s how amazing the food is. Value for money is an apt description of a meal here. It’s business like and the efficiency with which the dal, phulka, curry and other items in the thali is impressive. The servings keep coming and there are notices urging you not to waste food. <br/ <br/ I was proud of my empty plate and I’m sure you will too when you go there.

Happy to see places like this still exists in Chennai, serving economical thali. 2 sabzis, 1 dal, 1 chutney, curd, pickle, raw onion, roasted green chillies, mint chutney, papad, roti, rice and kichadi out of which except curd and papad everything is unlimited. They charge 110 for a thali. They do have around 3 variety of sweets 30 each you may add it to your thali if you wish.

Best place to have Gujarati food at very affordable price, I am gujju and looking for good Gujarati food in Chennai and finally I found it best place with lots of options, not very attractive place but food is best, good service, very friendly Gujarati owner, best khakhara in Chennai and all other Gujarati snacks at such affordable price. You need to visit this place if you want to try authentic Gujarati food.

Very simple place in terms of ambience. It's the food that takes the cake here. The afternoon thali is a must try. At Rs. 110/ , it's a steal. Rotis, subjis, dal, rice, curd, pickle, papad, salads...everything tastes excellent. Service is prompt. The staff have no reservations about serving any item (except curd and papad) any number of times...one can eat to one's satisfaction. And it's absolutely hygienic (though it may not seem so from outside). In a nutshell, every lunch here has been a satisfying experience for me.
