Alagappa Chettinadu - Chennai

Located under the Foot over bridge at Tambaram Sanatorium MEPZ signal, you can see this place crowded during the lunch and dinner hours. Majority of the crowd is bachelors. <br/ <br/ If you like South Indian chettinadu style food then this is the place to be. Tried their Chettinadu chicken and pepper chicken masala (boneless one). Both were outstanding dishes. <br/ <br/ Special mention to their veechu parotta and Kalakki. <br/ <br/ Try going here by a two wheeler or walk/public transport. <br/ <br/ Overall,<br/ Food 4.5/5<br/ Service 3.5/5<br/ Ambiance 3/5<br/ Value for Money 4/5

Its a small mess with a decent menu that gives you vfm. Try their parotta, kothu parotta, idiyappam paaya. I have had their fish gravy long back, it was good. Dont expect any ambience, service or even parking space. Its nearby Al barack restaurant opposite to MEPZ.

Taste : 4/5 ; Ambiance : 2.5/5 ; Service : 2.5/5 ; VFM : 3.5/5<br/ <br/ This is a small mess type restaurant located behind the santorium bustand that leads towards tambaram...pretty basic looking eatery with some pretty average manintenace and clenaing...the place is definitely not for hygiene freaks...can be said that it a bit upscaled comapred to road side shops or kaiyendhi bhavans...<br/ <br/ The service is pretty quick..but dont expect friendly or professional behavior...they always are on their toes...actually they want the customers too to be quick and ordering...or else you wil get a cold attitude...have visited this place many times..thanks to close proximity to the bus stand...<br/ <br/ Though the menu seems extensive there are a lot of items that can be purely avoided...like biryani varieties, chinese and tandoori items...all there are pretty average ones..nothing great about them..the ones to look forward to try here are the chettinad items...the idiyappam and parotta had with paya and other mutton items is really the best choice...the paya especially is really good...the best in the locality actually...the kal dosai and egg dosai varities too are something to look forward to..<br/ <br/ The pricing is bit extra than a nominaly priced eatery..but considering the food and taste...and also if you neglect service and ambiance then this place is a must try in the neighborhood...only for their tasty chettinadu dishes...

It is a great local joint. Best Southern tamil dishes, going there often. I love thier Idiyappam Paya. You often get a feel having food in Madurai when you have it here. Must go to this place and if you are Ambience freak then you miss thier delicious food. They also customize your egg but in South Indian way. Please go in your two wheeler as parking is a challenge.

Very Good parotas, reminds me the Rajapalayam parotas. Dont expect ambience, or special foods. Good for singles looking for south TN foods....
