Anjappar Chettinad Restaurant — Restaurant in Zone 9 Teynampet

My experience at the Anjappar branch in Triplicane after the India vs. England match was extremely disappointing. The food quality was far from acceptable. The parotta was cold and lacked the signature taste I’ve enjoyed at other Anjappar outlets. The chicken gravy tasted off, as if it had been mixed with fish gravy, ruining the flavor completely. The chicken fried rice barely had any chicken in it, making it feel more like plain fried rice.

On top of that, the service was terrible. When I asked for water, the staff refused to provide regular water and insisted I purchase bottled water instead, justifying it by saying it was “too crowded” and that I should “adjust.” Such behavior is unprofessional and unacceptable, as providing basic drinking water is a standard expectation at any restaurant.

I also requested sauce, but what was served was clearly old and in an amount so small it could barely be called a serving. When I shared my concerns, one of the staff members responded rudely, saying something along the lines of “What do you expect for 20 rupees?” This kind of attitude left a bad impression.

While the manager did come out later to apologize, it felt like a formality rather than a genuine effort to address the issue. No corrective actions were taken, and it seemed like the apology was just to appease me.

This branch appears to take advantage of post-match crowds, knowing that customers have limited dining options at such late hours. However, that doesn’t excuse poor food quality and rude service. Anjappar has built its reputation on quality and customer satisfaction, and this branch does a disservice to...

I had a terrible experience at the Anjappar branch in Triplicane after the India vs. England match. I ordered fried rice, parotta, and chicken gravy, but the quality was disappointing. The food was stale, the parotta wasn’t hot, and it didn’t taste like the authentic Anjappar parotta I’ve had at other branches. To make matters worse, the chicken gravy was a mix of chicken and fish gravy, which completely ruined the taste.

The chicken fried rice barely had any chicken in it, and when I requested water, the staff refused to provide regular water, insisting on buying packaged water instead. They claimed it was a “crowded time” and told me to adjust, which is unacceptable. A basic service like providing water shouldn’t be denied in any hotel.

I also requested sauce, but they served an old, stale sauce in a tiny portion—barely a spoonful. After finishing my meal, I raised my concerns with the staff, but the supplier rudely responded, saying, “With 20 rupees, I can’t build a fort.” This attitude was shocking and unprofessional.

When I stepped out, the manager approached me to apologize and assured me he would warn the staff. However, after he went inside, nothing was done. It felt like they were only trying to console me without taking any real action.

It’s clear this branch takes advantage of cricket audiences. Since matches end late, it’s hard to find alternative dining options, and people adjust out of hunger and exhaustion. This is unacceptable, and Anjappar needs to maintain its standards, even...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ajjnapar Chettinad Restaurant, and it was truly an exquisite experience. From the moment I stepped in, the ambiance transported me to the vibrant streets of Chettinad.

The menu boasted an impressive array of Chettinad delicacies, and I decided to start with the aromatic Chicken Chettinad. The flavors were rich and authentic, a true testament to the chef's mastery of Chettinad cuisine. The spices were perfectly balanced, creating a symphony of tastes that left me wanting more.

For the main course, I opted for the Ajjnapar Special Biryani. The fragrant rice, combined with tender pieces of meat, made each mouthful a delightful experience. The biryani was served with a side of flavorful raita, enhancing the overall dining pleasure.

To satisfy my sweet tooth, I indulged in the traditional Chettinad Paal Payasam. The creamy consistency and subtle sweetness were the perfect conclusion to my culinary journey at Ajjnapar Chettinad Restaurant.

The attentive staff and warm hospitality added to the overall charm of the place. Ajjnapar Chettinad Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone seeking an authentic Chettinad dining experience. I left with a satisfied palate and a desire to return for more...
