This little eatery is one of the best in the city for Pongal and Vadai. You need to get there early before 8.30 otherwise the Pongal sells out. The service is very quick and the owner is friendly. A must recommend for those who are visiting the area. And please don't get a car into Mandaveli Lane.

Enjoyed the breakfast. Idli and Pongal.

Its a small, family run traditional tiffin place, thats open 7 a.m to 10 a.m only. There is no place to sit, and we must stand outside and eat. Pongal, vada, idli was good, tasty, reasonably priced. There is no dosa or coffee though. Overall quality and price was very good.

Ok,place

A small shop run by a couple it serves delicious home made like South Indian food . Their idli , venPongal and vada are very tasty and popular . They also serve jain sambhar but they don’t have dosa or coffee in the menu . No seating arrangements .car parking is difficult #purevegetarian

Pure heaven in chennai.. Best delicious idly vada pongal with sambhar and many varieties of chutney. Best taste and food quality is pure gold. I just loved it

I’ve heard about this place via twitter. After tried to have their Pongal for three times being sold out. I had it on my fourth time, man I had a good Pongal. I came to know why Pongal is selling out before 8 AM. A good Pongal is in it simplicity that’s what they serve. If you are around Santhome and come a walk around Marina you should stop for breakfast here. FYI you need to stand and eat your food as there no seating available.

Small place. Need to eat standing. Very nominal pricing. Only selected few items as in the pic. Food hot and tasty. Vada a must try. Open for a few hours in the morning. Not sure about other timings.

Eating in Gomathy mess for past 2 years.The best food I have ever eaten. If they provide food 3 times a day I would be the happiest person. Praying to Lord Krishna for the owner's and employee's health and wealth. Hare Krishna.

The place is crowded even in the early hours of opening. It opens at 7 am and closes at 10:30am so you can think of the demand of its place. We went there by 8:30 and it was crowded. There was a separate queue for parcels and dine in (standing and eating). We tasted kichidi, vada. They were decent in taste, not so good or so bad but decent. We guess this place is getting a lot of hype but the taste is just normal. It's nothing so special or very tasty. And also we feel the quantity is very low for the price, they are charging a bit more for the quantity they are offering. So considering all the things, we rated 3. Don't keep so many expectations, just go and eat like a normal place but keep in mind the quantity and the price.

Tasty pongal, rava kichadi and Uzhundha vadai. Very quick service. No seating. We have stand at eat in the small space inside or have it relaxed outside.

Went with lot of expectations but not at all satisfied home food is much tasty then theirs had watery chutney & sambar not worth at all
