    Barbeque Nation in Vadapalani left much to be desired in terms of dining experience. Despite the relatively high price of Rs 930, the quality of food did not match up. While the starters were passable, the paneer was disappointingly rubbery, and the prawns were undercooked. Desserts were a redeeming factor, with a good variety and taste. Service, on the other hand, was commendable, with prompt and courteous staff. However, the ambiance left much to be desired. Poor ventilation made it uncomfortably hot inside, and the presence of houseflies was off-putting. The approach to the dining area felt unwelcoming, akin to approaching a dungeon. A notable observation was the wastage of food and drinks by many diners, indicating widespread dissatisfaction with the quality of the offerings. Overall, while Barbeque Nation Vadapalani may offer decent service and desserts, the subpar quality of main dishes, coupled with issues like poor ventilation and houseflies, makes it difficult to justify the hefty price tag.

    Food quality & service to be improved. Compare to last visit the starters quality, quantity and taste reduced drastically. The options of starters also seemed to be limited. Main course menu was not refilled in a timely fashion. The welcome drink option has been removed which was added disadvantage.

    We had a great time with our friends. Food was delicious and quantity was plenty. Our manager was also taking care of all our requests. AC in the main hall wasn't effective. Need to take care of that.

    Starters are extraordinary; tastes great. The main dishes are taken order and brought to the table instead of buffet system. This is due to COVID situation. Because of this, lots of food gets wasted. Desserts and fruits are good. The service guys are very caring and attentive. For an offer price of Rs 699 per head is affordable.

Taste is superb... excellent quality Price is reasonable..... Restaurant is neat, clean, and well maintained restaurant Overall, it's star rating restaurant 👍👍👍

  • 4/5 Surendar N. 2 years ago on Google
    Perfect for friends, Office and family get together. Service is top notch. Food taste is above 80%. Cakes , soups and gravy dishes need some taste development. Wash area can be seperate from restaurant for quicker clean up. Movement between seats and walkable area is so cramped. Otherwise beautiful place.

    Located at the second floor of the building. Spacious parking is there. The ambience is awesome. Lighting and interiors at it's best. They also serve soft drinks like Mojitos. As like all other restaurants most of the servers are north indians. Air conditioned and it has a high seating capacity as well. Only bad thing is the elevator which is a very compact one suitable for 4 persons.

    We went to dine there for lunch and the experience was miserable. Positives : The only positive is that the staff are quite responsive Negative: 1. There ambience was super hot , there were no AC today and the whole place was kind of stuffy and sweaty 2. Most of the starters were so stale and dried out specifically the paneer , pineapple and chicken ( they are just reheating the leftover stuff) 3. The seafood that was served was raw and uncooked. The floor manager gave us some specialties in the end. But that doesn’t take away the unpleasant experience we had. 4. I saw one of the staff touch the meat(chicken) with his bare hands to see if it was warm enough to be served. So unhygienic. It’s not a street food stall. They got to do better than that. 5. I see a lot of the customers eat the food in the buffet section itself and leave the used plates right there, next to clean plates ( the staff needs to address this ) it makes the buffet line so cluttered and food spillages all over. The whole dining experience was unpleasant.

    One of the poorest experience we ever had. Zero for the food and zero for the service. Entire service team had no idea or cohesion. Need to sit with empty plates all the time. The most happening live counter is terribly under staffed with one guy running over 4 counters. The meat was chewy. Main courses with no salt or spice.Even the usual suspects Cajun potatoes, crispy fried corn were over done. Try their biryani u would never dare trying biryani. Mutton sheekh and kulfi with rabdi were the only Saving graces. Gone of the days when BBQ nation gave great memories being the first buffet place I visited in their T. nagar branch. They run the show for the sake of it. We wasted a team outing there . It will be the last for us

    Welcomed with sanitizer and temperature check. No welcome drinks..!!!! Cajun potato, crispy corn and couple of salad come to ur table to start off... There is about just 4 different flavours of kebabs.... Main course- literally the worst part of the buffet. Dessert - Selling point of buffet. Yet limited varieties.... The limitation in menu was probably due to this Covid-19. Overall a Good experience rather than a best one...

    Nothing has changed compared to my previous visit. Live counter was disappointing especially the crispy calamari and thai style duck and the chef at the counter struggled to keep the orders going and struggled to communicate even in English. Worst part was they had power failure so the air conditioner didn’t run and we were profusely sweating and couldn’t enjoy the lunch and our birthday plan was complete disaster. Requested items weren’t delivered and few got delivered after multiple chasers. Would not prefer going to this place. It was a complete let down and waste of time and money. A simple sorry was provided but they were still worried about the feedback call that was expected the next day.

    Good place with comfortable seating options even for big groups. Buffet menu has a lot of starter, main course and dessert options - both veg and non veg. Somewhat pricey on weekends. Try to visit on Tuesday and Wednesday, that's when they have discounts.

    The place you can enjoy the best barbeque 8n town. Taste is good. If you wanna add some change in taste like add or less spicy then you have to wait long for that. Buffet items are good and with more varities. Dessert varities also good and tastier. Since weekday less crowded. Hope in the week ends it will be more. The person who attends need to improve the time to bring once the items over on the table.

  • 4/5 Maheshwaran J. 7 months ago on Google
    Planned this for our meet up with friends. The ambience, location (very close to Metro) etc is super cool. Pani poori, starters were all good. Service felt like little slow - even with not a full house… Except starters rest are average! Biriyani and other rice items were ok, but the dal sabjis were bit disappointing. Desserts collection was reasonable, loved those moong halwa! Nothing fancy about ice cream, but the kulfi was a great disappointment. Hope they improve soon! The price is bit expensive for these in my opinion.

    Seriously the worst barbeque nation... The dishes which they provide is rotten... today we ate biryani in that the chicken was rotten but the manager didn't accept it, the chicken stinks so much ... he said that the smell is from the masala but they provide rotten chicken please don't visit there everything they provide is of no good taste, also the chicken leg was so raw and the honey chicken was fully sweet, everything they provide is with some mistakes... i really don't understand how the above reviews are with 5 stars... please don't visit there and waste your money... we paid 3,000 for 3 persons which is totally waste... My kind opinion please don't go there..

    Barbeque Nation is a kid-friendly restaurant. The restaurant offers a welcoming and comfortable ambiance for families with children. The buffet-style dining experience is particularly appealing for kids as they can choose and grill their own food. The restaurant also offers a separate kids' menu with a variety of options that cater to the taste buds of young children. Additionally, Barbeque Nation has a friendly and helpful staff who are attentive to the needs of families with kids. They provide high chairs and booster seats for young children and are always ready to assist with any special requests. Overall, Barbeque Nation is a great option for families with kids who are looking for a fun and interactive dining experience.

    It's my weekly hang out place ☺️☺️ each & every staff know me.....so best for me. Ok now an honest review 😃 look!

    Had nice experience! Went with friends and family. The ambience is good but quite crowded place. The main course quality should be improved. Desserts are just okayish need to be cooked better. The complimentary cake is dry and jam was applied. The bbq part, the vegetables were just falling, the panner was not marinated properly. refilling of the counter is slow. Need to improve the quality. 🙌

    Barbeque nation located near to vadapalani metro station.went to lunch with a coworker. A place with excellent car and bike parking.. Security personnel, Manager (Mr. Yash), and other staff members all act in a polite and responsible manner. The Barbeque Nation serves alcoholic beverages. That's the added advantage for this outlet. I'm dissatisfied with the taste and variety of the food offered at the restaurant. To understand the needs of the customer, the service personnel needs further training on the dishes. Following complaints about the quality of the cuisine, the chef delivered some excellent specialties at final stage.

    Had a good dining experience here.Taste of the food is good but not great. Ambiance of the restaurant is good. Staff are responsive and customer friendly. Went with office colleagues on a weekday. For week day they have provided an offer if we more than 10 people. So the price is Rs 599 + tax /- . It will be better if they some more variety of dishes based on customer choice. Apart from taste they will liquor but we need to pay for that. Car parking is available and restaurant is near to vadapalani metro station.

    Food is okay as per place. Starter was not good for a North Indian. When we objected , they served good dishes , but that time, half of starters were already done. I would suggest anyone to contact restra manager first before they start serving their choices. Atleast they will know what you like.

  • 4/5 Padma P. 1 month ago on Google • 10 reviews New
    I visit this place may be once a year. I should definitely say that the quality of food has gone down. Starters were good but the items in the buffet need big time taste improvement. Number of items in the dessert menu has also decreased. Items were also not refilled properly and there was zero salt in the lollipops,rotis and naans.. Loved their prawns, pineapples, egg fried rice, my favorite is always their hot gulab jaamuns!! The service team was great though.. Catered to all our needs and were very sweet to provide us a cute cake too!!

  • 2/5 G G. 6 months ago on Google
    Burnt tandoori chicken Starters served after 15min of seating Rotis were not served until we completed deserts Drinks ordered were not served until after 4 reminders and then the drinks came which was not what was ordered. Poorly dressed service staff None present in reception desk on arrival. Repeatedly Manager and reception lady coming and asking details of booking. Food quality of deserts and main course was pathetic, the pani puri was miserable Very sorry state of affairs. Be prepared to shut shop soon.

  • 3/5 IMRAN K. 5 months ago on Google
    I went to the team lunch. Starters are too good but the dishes in the buffet are not as expected. Sorry to say this, even the roadside was good. Chicken dum biryani rice does not feel like basmati rice which is too low quality. I complained about that in the barbecue nation regarding the tastes of the buffet dishes. Last one desserts are too good. Money was somewhat compensated in that, pirni choco ball gulab jamun and more 10 desserts are good

  • 2/5 Mohammed A. 5 months ago on Google
    It’s a waste of money to be honest, I went to the vadapalani branch and I am not sure if it varies to other branches. The food was not great, especially the barbecue, the chicken pieces were extremely small for the amount of money we paid. Only the desserts were somewhat worth a bit of money but I would never go there again and waste my money. The waiters keep asking to rate the restaurant a five even thought they don’t really work for it and make it awkward for customers and even annoys you when each everyone comes to your table asking you to rate it a five . They had paneer but they didn’t keep it , we had to ask them for it .

  • 4/5 Venkatesh C. 8 months ago on Google
    Good service and ambience was good. Live counters could have been a bit quicker. After peak hours refilling could have been planned better.

  • 4/5 Sujith Point S. 1 year ago on Google
    Pros: A very impressive place & suitable for gatherings. Food is pretty good and service is just extraordinary. Very courteous and good a decent bright ambience. Cons: Seating should've been more solid. Few menu in the maincourse like biriyani & fish masala could've been refilled quickly. Keep up the quality & service

    "I recently had a reunion with some of my school friends at Barbeque Nation in Vadapalani and I must say that I had a wonderful time. The atmosphere was perfect for catching up with old friends and reminiscing about old times. The staff were very welcoming and attentive to our needs, which added to the overall experience. The food was tasty, although the variety of options could have been better. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the restaurant and the memories I made with my friends will last a lifetime. I highly recommend Barbeque Nation in Vadapalani for anyone looking for a great place to catch up with friends and enjoy a good meal."
