It was my wife's Bday, and having exhausted different live BBQ joints in Chennai, we decided to head for Sigree, Anna nagar. Have read good reviews about it. Being a Sunday, I made a 12noon advance reservation via Easy Diner app, lured by extra discounts! Wife's Bday, one doesn't want to goof things up. We arrived on the stroke of 12noon! The guy was just opening up the door.( They let in by 12.15pm it seems). Quickly made a beeline to our table, ( not too near or far from the buffet spread, now that's important!) Tomato shorba for me and chicken soup for her, served hot as we settled in. The nonveg starters came in first and my wife's plate was filling in, I had to stare at those blank, white colour walls, thinking how long it would have been since the owner looked at them, because the walls sure could do with a makeover! Few patchwork here there, let me believe telltale signs of failed renovation. Hot French fries were served, and me being bored with those walls, started my business. The crowd started filling up and so did the other starters. Paneer Tikka, vegetable tikka, Baby potato, crispy mushroom, masala corn. Usual suspects, but unlike other BBQ joints, these were very tasty, full of flavours. And piping hot too. Spicy Pineapple was very juicy spicy and hot. I wondered why those coal grill joints, these tastes soo lame 😨. Main course, Methi malai paneer, few other gravies and veges, Dal, pulao kept me quite busy, I forgot what my wife was eating! But as long as she didn't bother me, l assumed All's well in her plate too. Pickled raw mango with mustard and papaya salad, mango chutney were worth mentioning, also channa chaat salad. The Naan was very good, crispy top, soft inside. Not the chewy thing. Enough of the good things, well yes, you see the chef's skills in North Indian dishes were remarkable but when it comes to "Curd rice", I think he skipped class! Mixing hard boiled rice to curd and topping up tadka is a far 😭 😢. Now that's really off range. Sigree knowledge of making curdrice is equal to a Tanjore cook making Briyani! And yes I couldn't spot the Crispies/ Appalam/ Chips in the buffet! After the curd rice fiasco I settled for the dessert course. Hot jamoon and Malpua with rabdi were good. The usual moong dal halwa was missing! Few cake pieces and cut watermelon, papaya. Semiya payasam, tasty but the seyima seemed "El Dante". Vanilla & strawberry icecream finished my lunch. Not a big elaborate spread, but the dishes were all well done ( except for Curdrice). If you are looking for quality food, one can...
Read moreFirst visit to Annanagar outlet since nungambakkam branch was not Open and other Buffet places were Full occupied for Saturday Lunch. After seeing some good reviews, booked table and eagerly went In with Hunger and placed, Service and Response from staffs(just 4members in total) was so good. Much satisfied. Rs.699 per head. Soup with less quantity but it was good, Starters just 4 varieties of Veg and 4varieties of Non-Veg only which disappointed us badly. Spicy Corn, Veg Wrap, Potato Balls, Panneer Tikka in Veg. Chicken Wrap, Tandoori Chicken, Mutton Balls, Fish Tikka in Non-Veg. All the above Taste were So Good, Yummy, Spicy, well cooked and had multiple times since this alone would be worth for buffet price but varieties were very less. Main Course were pathetic. Veg and Chicken Biryani, Panner gravy, paapu dhal with Steam rice, Rasam and curd rice, Butter chicken masala, egg masala, roti and Naan, few boiled veggies.- We tasted all but all wee tasteless, not cooked properly... Roti overcooked, egg masala and panneer gravy was bad. Biryani semi cooked.. NO Pasta, NO Pizza, No Chats, No Welcome Drink, No Eggs- fully disappointed. Dessert varieties too very less and very normal but was Okayish. Just 4 members that too just 3 members cleaning, order taking, serving, refilling. Tough Task.. Service was So Good, Starters were so good.. but but maincourse and Less varietiy of dishes disappointed us.. Heard disappointed murmering words from a family together gang there.
Dear Sigree Team, Please improve your variety of Dishes and concentrate on...
Read moreFood was good but dishes were very less for the cost and did not suit the Buffet style.Could add more varieties of saldas, sweets ,icecreams , Fresh juices, rice varieties and starters to suit all age groups. Buffet dishes are not attractive and very less compared to other Buffet restaurants in the city .Should add more varieties to value customer's money. Even juices were not served for Buffet.This is the first time I had tried this restaurant based on my friends suggestion but was not upto our expectation when compared to other buffet menus in the city. Must increase the dishes count.Overall the lunch was not to our expectation and it costed us heavily .No noodles, only one fruit ,Only two flavours of icecream, Only one cake,No juices, No prawns,No choclates,Only Gulab Jamun and no other sweets, Kheer also one item , I dont think this is Buffet style. All my friends and children were terribly disappointed. I can understand that it is pandemic and you have your issue's but if that is the case then why do you charge so much to the customers, you can give discount or reduce the rate for reducing dishes. Also the rates for kids also not appropriate. Terribly disappointed and will not suggest for others. Try to satisfy your customers need for the month you...
