    I went here for breakfast after it's fame. I ordered 2 dosha, server still asking anything else, I told it's enough but he says we won't give only dosha you have order side dish or atleast omblet, then I ordered 2 dosha (40)+ 1 omblet (30)=70. But the thing is they don't serve sambar, chutney, they serve only non-veg gravy which I won't like at all. If we see price list side dishes are more than 200 rupees. These prices are too high than the quality and taste. And server, old fatty man looks ready for fight. Before reaching this hotel, I crossed street side hotel, the one I used to eat, after breakfast I thought it be better food quality according to its price.

    I went to this place after watching all those over hyped YouTube videos. The mutton and chicken gravy both had a burnt smell. We ordered pepper chicken, the chicken was hard and was not cooked well at all. The pepper chicken only had more curry leaves and burnt pieces than chicken pieces The egg dosa was very thick and average. Overall i would not recommend this place to anyone! It is better to eat at Rajaganapathy which serves way better salna!!

    Had breakfast here. Really awesome. Feel like hone made food. And the best part is their secret Masala recipe. Authentic South Indian taste. Menu priced reasonable. Even had a heavy breakfast doesn’t feel like other shops Masala food. Feel good and yummy 😋. Highly recommended this 60 years old restaurant. Must visit once if you travel via or to Salem.

    Highly disappointed. The gravy given for then non veg meals were very ordinary. I felt a burnt taste in the mutton gravy. The chicken fry I got only had bones and curry leaves and 3-4 chicken pieces which were over cooked. I feel this is highly over rated and to say in a word, not recommended.

    The food and the portion sizes were good. If you're getting kothu parotta, one plate can easily be shared between 2 ppl. They don't use broiler chicken. You'll get only country chicken which is good. But we went on a rainy day, the drainage in front of the hotel was overflowing and the stench was unbearable.

    Went with a group of four friends for dinner. Speciality was the parotta and chicken fry. Immensely one of the best. We tried mutton fry as well. It was A class, served hot and delicious it was. One of our friend was a vegetarian and there was no gravy nor chutney available for dosa. But they got it from nearby shop for him and one another server ordered to make a chutney soon and put us to comfort. Overall a very good goto place for non veg lovers. The best in Salem I would say.

    Managala vilas always holds a place whenever I get confused to let myself into a hotel for lunch. I went in and surprisingly most of the seats were free. Food was good👍. I'd recommend for the people who are looking for the best non veg meals foods.

    Mangala Vilas non - vegetarian hotel in Salem located opposite to New bus stand is one of the oldest Hotels in Salem and it is a good choice for non vegetarian food lovers especially Mutton Biryani. There are lot of spicy non - vegetarian dishes like Mutton and Chicken Biryani, Liver fries, Mutton Brain fry, Mutton Head curry, variety of fishes, chicken roast, chicken fry, mutton sukka, kadhambam, etc. All the dishes prices were bit expensive but worthy of it.

    Most hyped but below average . This place lost its authentic taste. They served old parotta. Gravies are very average taste. Only hope is nattukozhi fry.

  • 4/5 Did You ever T. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was really nice, i Have tried two or three signature dishes like fried pepper chicken, Mutton and plain biryani, Biryani has its unique taste and ordered one regular meal where i got mutton curry and chicken curry, tase of mutton curry was good. Overall good experiance and good taste.

  • 1/5 Naveen H. 1 year ago on Google
    We have to travel all the way from Bangalore to Salem to taste and see if the hype was justified. We were excited after watching videos on YouTube, but when we arrived for lunch and ordered, we were disappointed. We ordered Mutton Chukka and Nati Kolli roast, and we were served chicken and mutton gravy as part of meals that lacked taste and flavour. Rasam is taken aback by Rasam's texture. We ended up paying 800rs for tasteless food, and you can get better tasting rich food at the roadside shop. Mutton Chukka and Nati koli were both served with the same gravy, and to be honest, I would not recommend this restaurant if you want to taste the best.

    This one the one famous hotel and old hotel in Salem. Please visit this place and do not take the parcel. We need to have it there only. Must try parota, all non veg items. Note: please visit before 2pm( if you need to have all kind of items)

  • 3/5 Boopathi C. 1 year ago on Google
    Taste is good but too costly. We had ckn briyani(300) and mutton sukka(300) and meals. It's cost around 700. If you wanna have only meals you can visit and enjoy your meals alone.

  • 4/5 swetha s. 1 year ago on Google
    So we went in around 3pm on a Saturday...they could have turned us straight away saying food is finished out but they let us in put banana leaves and then telling only meals is available....we had no choice... We ordered side dish...first the waiter told it would take 20min then he denied service... surprisingly even omelette was not available.... service could have been polite...taste was good....

    Best non-veg options available Quantity is less Pricing is high Taste is good Non-veg Greavies are ok ok Little bit expensive.

  • 3/5 Vishnu K. 1 year ago on Google
    Offers traditional South Indian non vegetarian dishes. There aren't many options for vegetarians. The food is very spicy. Their fish fry was exceptional and is a must try

  • 3/5 karthik k. 1 year ago on Google
    After i saw food lover Kripal Amanna's review , i want try this, i have taken parcel plain briyani and chicken fry, taste average only. Quantity is ok. But the cost is high, 310rs it's very high for tier two city like Salem, we found only wings portion lots of Kari leave and plain briyani taste is like veg. Briyani. surprisingly we got rasam pack inside. But overall disappointed for me. ☹️

  • 5/5 SELVAKUMAR K. 2 years ago on Google
    Had Pichi Potta Nattu Kozhi Fry And Mutton Biriyani Each Costed ₹300 So Bill is ₹600 Inclusive of GST ... Cost Is High But Worth Quantity And Taste.. When You Buy Pichi Potta Nattu Kozhi Take Away They Will Provide Chicken Gravy and Mutton Gravy The Quantity of Gravies Will Be Sufficient For Eating 10 Dosas 👍

  • 3/5 Ranjith K. 9 months ago on Google
    Meals is 95 rs served 2 types of gravy , and rasam , mor , its not worth for money , mutton chukka is 300 rs taste ok but 400 rs for one simple meals is tooo high , better try onther combo items in other hotels

  • 4/5 Thiyaga R. 3 months ago on Google New
    This South Indian mess stands out as one of the best, and their signature dish, the Pichi Potta Naatukozhi, is truly a culinary gem. The flavors are authentic and leave a lasting impression, making it a must-try for anyone visiting. The availability of parking adds to the convenience, ensuring a stress-free experience. However, it's worth noting that the prices are slightly on the higher side for the overall atmosphere provided. While the quality of the food justifies the cost, some might find the pricing a tad steep for the casual ambiance. Despite the minor concern with pricing, the exceptional taste and the convenience of parking make this South Indian mess a standout choice for those seeking an authentic and delightful culinary experience. Highly recommended for food enthusiasts willing to indulge in a gastronomic adventure.
