Thambi Vilas

Good place to try out authentic food of Tamilnadu.. Mutton varieties are lip smacking to the core.. Biriyanis are okish type need an improvement in this.. Prices are reasonable and service people are friendly and polite.. Many items are in the menu are not available most of the time. Hope management take a note of it and come with a proper arrangement on that. Should have given 5 ratings but due to many food that I wanted try are not available so giving them for 4 stars for making me disappointed. Well done service people keep up the good work..

First of all, I would say one of very few wonderful restuarant which reminds you old days. You get to see many vintage things over here. Coming to dishes, they were just so yummy, and excellent service too. My favourite is Nalli Roast and Paneer Goli soda, those are jus awesome. Near entrance you get to see lots of our childhood sweets like Thean mittai, peppermint, burffy, etc., also you can get different variety of beeda. Overall, just awesome authentic south indian restuarant with wonderful vintage feel!!!

Styled in retro Madras theme, this hotel serves proper south Tamilnadu cuisine. The taste was good, the service can be improved. We had to remind them to get extra saulna twice and there was no one in the hotel. Can't imagine how they will serve when the hotel is brimming to it's capacity. Parking available for both two and four wheelers. Limited capacity though (3 cars and some 10 two wheelers max) The 1960s ambience, old Madras Photos and a decent price gives this place some brownie points.

The food At this place tastes like home made and the service offered by the waiters were good once and for some particular reason it has dulled over time. It's hard to find a spot to get seated if you are visiting this place for lunch during weekends. Pricing and ambiance are too good atleast according to me. Dishes you need to try there are their thambi Vilas chicken 65, elaneer payasam, Mutton saalna idli and these will not disappoint you for sure. The parking space can hold 4 to 5 cars at a maximum which is in front of the hotel. If the service and wait time can be improved then I am sure that this place will be much more crowded.

A great place to hang out and have dinner amongst friends. The restaurant ambience is really good and has a rustic and homely vibe to it. The food tastes very authentic and I believe the food reflects the name of the restaurant. The pricing is a bit on the higher side (given the quantity) but it isn't too expensive. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone who would like to have a quick meal alone or hang out in groups as there is plenty of space for everyone.

Thambi Vilas has wide range of menu yummy lip smacking dosas,idlis and uttapams served with authentic South Indian style of chicken and mutton gravys. Some of the clear winners were mutton saalna idly same is available in chicken. The mutton saalna Idli was my all time favourite. We had their mutton biriyani which was amazing and it was well presented as well. Their interiors takes us back to 90’s and the workers are dressed up in that way. A must go place! Food : 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Service : 4/5
