😠 Red alert: Worst grilled chicken, full of chilly powder and lot of oil. Taste is too bad I think they cooked with very old chicken. I have attached photos for people reference, so much of non cooked chilly powder. After eating this chicken I had a so much of stomach pain. Beware of this hotel foods. People often mention chicken, Chicken, taste, good, Grill, worst, briyani, Taste, price, hotel,

    Located in Prime Road of Vadapalani ,Serves GRILL CHICKEN in Different Taste and Served with the Grill Masala Cooked Along with the Chicken. One of Good Place to Taste Grill Chicken at Reasonable Price. U can Choose the Hotel for a Grill Chicken. Not a Restraurant but a Good Hotel where u friends can have a Hangout for a Chicken. Tried Paratta and Ended up Disappointed.

    Good to go for briyani. Nowadays many branded briyani shops are providing some mess briyani. But this is a little ok for price and quantity. Taste is also fine for this price range. Don't taste brinchal gravy that tastes very bad. Taste briyani alone.

    The food was decent but the service was too bad. The shop was not crowded and yet the waiting time for the order to be taken was high. We were waiting for almost 5 mins to even get a bottle of coke. The tumblers and the tray in which the tumblers are being kept were also dirty.

    Oh my goodness, you had the most scrumptious biriyani ever! So flavorful and absolutely mouthwatering. But wait, there seems to be a little twist in your story. Your grilled chicken wasn't boiled? No worries! Our super attentive server was quick to offer a replacement dish. But , my friend, gracefully declined and still paid for the biriyani and even got half off grilled chicken. If you're looking for a place where every bite is pure delight. Go ahead, check your food before boiling or not - you won't be disappointed

    this shop on the arcot road vadapazhani opp avm studios. their kitchen is just parallel to the stinking dust bin, when questioned about this in hygienic manner in which the chicken was prepared, they started cornering me and used hard word & cursed govt & Gcc for keeping whole city inhygienic

  • 2/5 Rajesh M. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered grill chicken only to get disappointed. One of the worst looking and tasting grill ever. Chicken wasn’t cooked properly and the marinade was half cooked too. It was presented in a strange way and i lost the appetite at that moment. Tasted even worse, so left it as it was and paid to leave the place as quick as possible.

  • 1/5 Sai Sathish V. 1 year ago on Google
    Over hype!.. Grill chicken absolutely no taste, no flavour. It seemed like they just plain boiled the chicken, and Mayonnaise was stale.. Even Biryani lacked in taste n flavours..

  • 1/5 Mohamed 1 year ago on Google
    Now a days not upto mark, not good taste I suggest don't go there if you really hungry. Moynnise is like a water, gill chicken is not boiled well. Profit minded, not good quality.

  • 3/5 Amol Prasad R. 7 months ago on Google
    It's so busy there so you should wait for sometime. Biriyani is average but the Masala Grill is worth the try. I would suggest that.

  • 5/5 Pradheep .. 9 months ago on Google
    I had grilled chicken and chicken briyani. Grilled chicken is very good and soft, it is indulgent with spice and masala, which is mouth watering. Chicken biryani is average but if u take it with brinjal batchadi, it is satisfying. I will give 5 star rating for Grill chicken and 3 star rating for Briyani.

  • 4/5 ranjith k. 1 year ago on Google
    Briyani is really Good with single Grain rice with no much spice on it Grill is Must try!Affordable Price Only thing is they must improve they are Ambience

  • 1/5 Lumiere Security Services Pvt L. 1 year ago on Google
    Very worst service. Chicken is not cleaned properly. Food is not worthy for its rate

  • 4/5 Daniel S. 1 year ago on Google
    Atmosphere gotten better Taste is amazing especially the butter naan and grill. Mayo seems to taste different than before. However service needs work. Two or three guys come and ask for order but forgets us for half hour then brings us two half grills when we asked for only one. Because they were taking time we kept reminding. Trust me it's hella irritating to do when hungry and these chicken are rolling in front of your eyes. Two wheeler parking is okay. Ideal for friends. The new place I can say for couples also. Restroom is a mega turnoff so be careful before you open just wash your hands in basin, eat and go.

    Totally worst experience in this hotel, Dishes are not worth and not a good tast, i order dosa, kari dosa,chikken rice ,pepper bbq, the give dosa only Not given chuttney sambar, kari dosa is worst ever max i didn't see and tast like any worst hotels, this is the most Disgusting food i tasted, They given menu price is different to billing price, When i ask about it they say casualy thats old menu, You didn't know market price or anything and vulgar and harassment speech, And the pepper bbq is wost to eat and service is not good every time ask give water chuttney and all things, Totaly no worth for anything, Even rode side thallu vandi is better food tast and service good then this hotel, People don't wast your money to this hotel Even that i given 1 star also not worth

  • 4/5 Suresh Babu S. 11 months ago on Google
    This hotel has been there for many years opp to avm studio and most people love their fried rice and gravy varieties and biriyani is the ultimate one with good quality and quantity and taste without compromise...

  • 4/5 kv p. 1 year ago on Google
    Try out their Grill and Tandoor.. Taste will be okay and Quantity will be more.. but don't go unless you like mayonnaise more with those.. they have the very worst taste of mayo.. and briyani too taste wil be okay.. this place is best for Quantity!

  • 5/5 Ashwin S. 11 months ago on Google
    The best chicken fried rice / noodles you can find in the entire area! Been here over 100 times over the past 15 years. Quality has been the dame (the master Baskar has been here for over 2 decades)

  • 4/5 Raghavan V. 1 year ago on Google
