Reviews of Chennai Dosa Coventry

D. V.

Tried breakfast buffet. It’s worth for money due to few food items in it. The response of the staff is little delay and food serving also same. Items and taste: 1. Puri - very good 2. Idly - not good 3. Vada - very good 4. Pongal - nice 5. Upma - can be tried 6. Masala dosa - not good 7. Plain dosa - not good 8. Masala tea - can be tried 9. Filter coffee- not good 10. Mango lassi - can be tried 11. Chicken biriyani- can be tried

H.

Excellent tasting and authentic dosa's, we visit whenever in town as nothing beats the taste elsewhere. Great prices too.

Good value for money and certainly best South Indian in the area

Some of their food like the balti and the rice based dishes were great but noodles were sub par at best .

Amazing food, friendly staff great experience

a. s.

A south Indian cuisine restaurant in coventry with a wide menu stretching to punjabi and north indian and indo chinese recipes as well. Friendly staff and food tastes okay. Prices are nominal and sitting facilities are good. Small toilet facility but workable. No wheelchair access. Off road parking. Cash only which is a pain. £5-10pp pricing.

S. V.

Good dosa and idly. Even lassi was good. Reasonable prices as well

B. A.

Best Indian food good spices with a home food feeling

Chicken biryani was not up-to the mark

R. M.

Food is great, traditional, spicy and tasty. The only reason I Mark a star down is that parking can be tricky during busy times and the surrounding area is a bit run down. Not the best part of Coventry, but if you after a tasty meal without worrying about the area, this is perfect.

Great South Indian Food

You will get south indian and Srilankan foods. Taste is okay. Thier filter coffee is really good. But, since from long time they are accepting only cash payment (card machine not working). They have deserts in their menu but it's not available. You have a dedicated parking space.

We had been here for a breakfast Deal for two. This deal covered idly, Vada, upma,Pongal,kesari with sambar, coconut chutney and tomato garlic chutney. Dosa and poori unlimited options were also part of the deal. Masala dosa and poori masala was ok in taste but can definitely try for once. Filter coffee and ginger tea tasted good too. One of the best for a South Indian breakfast buffet to try on any weekend. Customer Service by their team was really pleasant.

A. F.

Went in to get a takeaway the lady there was very pleasant smiling and very friendly.. the good us top notched me and the girls enjoyed it so well. I had lamb curry the girls have butter cream chicken with rice.. very clean atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back. Thank you 😊 🙏

Very good food, great veg options and kind attentive staff, really enjoyed our Mushroom 65, chilli parotha and Onion rava masala dosa! Would def come here again, it's rare to get such authentic food outside india!

K. S.

Nice place Lovely food but....staff not friendly there is no queue system as to who came in 1st and whos order to take 1st no cutlery was given with the meal jugs on the table but no water

K. R.

Food was served hot. It took a while to arrive but can imagine being freshly made it took time. Wasn't very busy. The prices are in line with the regular franchise pricing. The only downside was that the place is cash only which we only found out when paying and the cash machine nearby charges a fee. But would definitely go again at non busy times.

M. V.

Excellent food. A great place for vegetarians. Paneer butter masala and veg freie rice are the best veggies options you can opt for.

M. C.

Good place for Indian food. Originally a south Indian restaurant but serves the best chole bhature in town. We had chole bhature, podi dosa, chicken kothu parotta and medu wada. Everything was really good except medu wada wasn't crispy enough. But overall a great place. The place also has unlimited breakfast on weekends and bank holidays.

R. D.

Really good place to eat. We ate chinese, vada sambar, Dosa, mango Lassi and kulfi. All were excellent. Service was really quick. Would recommend this place

D. A. V. S.

We tried Mutton kottu parotha, a nice dish. Buffet lunch is available only at Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

S. s. C.

Very good food, especially buffet. Worth for the cost. But the service is tooooooooo slow and the lean girl who serve is worst in serving she makes us feel like, we wait for prasadam in temples. But the other girl and guy in the buffet are good they bought us immediately what we ordered. The lean girl who serves avoids eye contact with us to avoid our table. And in week days when we went, we ordered for a masala fries she bought masala dosa. Even the guy in week days is also good in serving except the lean girl. My recommendation is don't order with her.

C. S.

I was craving for dosa for a very long time and was very reluctant to trying new places, as Indian food takeaway in Coventry is an absolute nightmare. I then found chennai dosa on an evening walk, and decided to try it, seeing the many customers they have. That was the best food decision of my life. The mango lassi was IMMACULATE. My heart was full when I realised that it was alphonso mango in my mango lassi. Then came the special masala dosa, it was pure bliss. The sambar was delicious. All the chutneys were heart-warming. Overall, the dosa was amazing. Perfect spices and taste. Chicken briyani was tasty too. Perfect flavours. My experience overall was a 5/5. Will definately visit again.

R. A. B. (. A.

We love going here for weekend unlimited breakfast. Obviously it becomes busy so the service is slow. I would give it a 5 star but some of the staff just need to be a little friendlier. Great value for money though.

S. T.

Nice clean place with 40 plus seats but quite crowded on weekends for lunch time, so be prepared to wait for 20 mins

J. R.

Liked the Rava Dosa very much. Chicken Briyani is ok!

S. S.

Nice Place. We travel 25min and araived 2.15pm they take order and after 20min the waiter say we are going to close the shop 3.30pm and open again 5.00pm. food came around 3.00and we leave before 3.00pm. meantime 3 customers came but they couldn't take food. Management should arrange staff

M. L.

Has amazing breakfast Thali option which serves variety of dishes at one go. Loved their dosa and medu wada. They also at times serve paan which is a refreshing combination of mouth freshener and digestive. Their Biryani combos are fantastic for group meals!!!

m. g.

Good food but as usual with any Indian restaurant, not so good staff. They got us the wrong order and didn't even show the courtesy to change it.

V. L.

Ordered the paper dosa and the mutton set meal. The portions were huge!! Very worth it. The food was also good and authentic. Will definitely return! This is the best South Indian restaurant I’ve tasted here!

B.

Good welcome. There is a small car park behind their Restaurant if you go early. I enjoyed having buffet breakfast today with my family.

A. B.

A nice place in Coventry to have some South Indian food. The place is clean and safe to have food in the restaurant. The staff were helpful, food was fresh and delicious. But do carry cash as they don't accept cards at the place and not free ATMs nearby. The restaurant also delivers through Just Eat and Deliveroo. Do recommend this place to try some varied and tasty dishes of South India!

H. P.

Food is great here . But I need to add some details about child safety. By baby fell off the baby chair arrangement you guys had . He is fine now . But I don’t want this to happen to any other kid . Please buy a proper child seat . Hope you don’t ignore this matter. Thanks.

h.

Absolutely fantastic service. Staff are very courteous and polite. I found hisham and bashir especially helpful. The food was very tasty. Proper traditional South Indian masala dosa. The chilli prawns were great too. I would highly recommend.

P. N.

After visiting Chennai Dosa Restaurant in Birmingham we became favourite for their breakfast. Since I am staying in Coventry we went again to Chennai Dosa Restaurant in Foleshill road, Coventry. The same quality and and same taste, we liked it the most. This time we ordered sambar idly and some kids breakfast and filter coffee. It was delicious.

J. D.

We love the kids dosa here along with the thaali which has loads of variation. Loved the filter coffee n crispy dosas too

B. S.

Simply best south Indian I had after a very long time it's like so yummmm

j. a.

Great food, but Friday evening got really busy. But waiting for almost an hour for food doesn't seem like good experience. Might go again but not on a busy night ..

M. J.

Chana Bhature is very good. Must try

D. P.

Authentic taste of Indian cuisines in very less price. Loved it.

V. V.

Excellent South Indian food at very reasonable rates. While the ambience is just basic, it serves its purpose. I mean, not a great place to take to date to but is good for a quick and affordable family dinner. 4 stars instead of 5 because it is a cash-only restaurant. However, there's a cash machine right next door. Will go there again.

g. v.

Service is slow. Staff doesn't look professional. Food is OK. And the staff was having fight with each other in their own language 😁

j. m.

Dosa was good , fish curry was very good, fried rice was average. Tea (chai) was authentic Indian experience though slightly expensive

A. T.

Great choices to taste South Indian food. Appeared online order screen 15% discount on over 10£

I. I.

Went with a friend and had no complaints. Great food, great service, highly recommend. Would come back and eat 42 dosas.

K. A.

Authentic South Indian food, I can vouch for. With ambience you feel home. Very polite staff. This has become our frequent visiting place now. For a British Indian, it might feel spicier side.

N. C. M.

My review is about the buffet they provide on Weekends from 10-12. Food is very basic without any sophistication. The day I went, very few items were available. Vada had a sour taste, means the batter was old. Chutney was refrigerated, old as well. There was no sambar. Overall, I didn’t feel satisfied with the experience. As I said, this is only about the £5 morning buffet, I haven’t tried the regular food.

S. C.

Amazing fresh spicy south Indian food. I took my friend for his first masala does. It was crisp with a smooth full flavoured potato filling and lentils with side chutneys. The two of us were happily stuffed for only £11

S. i. M.

Excellent food, clean and well presented seating area. The customer service is top notch. Highly recommended. Please note the following obswrvations, may change in the future: Cash only Disabled accessibility limited No car park (only small limited on street parking) No reservations

S. M.

Visited this restaurant recently for lunch. Had ordered kids tiffin. The best kids South Indian meal till date. My son was even surprised when he found two little toys under the dosa. The spicy level of food is a bit too high. Gave me an upset stomach. Otherwise the service level and food was brilliant.

S. C.

A decent place for authentic south Indian food. When we visited on a weekday at 2 PM , the place was reasonably crowded . The service was very slow, given that there were only 2 waiters. The wait for dosas was for about 30 intolerable minutes. This was after pointing out that guests who arrived after us were getting their dosas quicker. On the positive side, though , the food was tasty. And finally, only cash accepted!! Had to make a dash to the neighbouring ATM. Summary- An ok place - don't expect quick service. An average kind of eating place. Would recommend their sambar vada over their dosas any day.

R. D.

The best buffet I've had in a long long time around this area. Truly authentic South Indian food. The food was amazing.. The buffet had 2 nonveg curries... One lamb and the other chicken. There were no dosas in the buffet though. However everything tasted really nice. The buffet price too was unbelievable £5.95 for veg and £6.95 got nonveg

A. T.

Good service, fast delivery and good parking

C. V.

Lovely food, service was awkward, the waitress staff were shy, however one member of staff was making a great difference, he seemed to be running everything from the front to the back like a machine. This could easily been 5 star, the gate for parking needs some attention, and waiting staff need more training.

H. M. K.

Finally found one restaurant with good south indian food. Really enjoyed their service. We ordered many items, dosas were good & mutton biriyani is my favourite.

U. A. K.

Ordered through Deliveroo for first time. We were pleasantly surprised. Amazing food! We normally use the other dosa place but thought of giving this one a try. Will definitely use Chennai Dosa again.

s. d.

Best place to have South Indian food in Coventry!!!! Wish they would add student discount also which will make us absolutely regulars. Clean, Friendly and weekend breakfast deal was so so so good. Can't wait to go back already💕💕

S. S.

Excellent hidden gem in Coventry for food, dont let the location put you off. The keema dosa is my go to. Love taking my family and friends here, and my mums favourite place to go when she was around. Only criticism is that they encourage to eat with hands but people dont want to get their hands dirty especially poeple with autism but they willl always provide cutlery if asked.

S. V. R.

Service is good 😁. I came here for buffet and it is worthy!!! The best and busyest south indian restaurant in Coventry.

V. J.

Good Indian restaurant in Coventry.

Y. S.

Morning breakfast served as buffet with variety of South Indian dishes available is unlimited in £5 and you can order dosa inclusively(you may need to request the staff). Surprised to see so cheaper option available in UK. Staff is really good.

U. C.

This is an excellent place to eat. Great service. Very friendly and helpful staff. Food was excellent and too quality. Especially the vegetarian dishes. Highly. recommended. Bare in mind they only accept cash.

A. P.

Very good South Indian food and also fast service with good hospitality. Has a small car park(for about 5-7 cars) which usually doesn't get full.

J. G. R.

Visited first time. Food was good, We ordered Sambar Vada, Veg Kothu, Chettinad Chicken Gravy. Food was hot and took reasonable time to deliver. I feel that for Veg kothu they used frozen cut vegetables, but cooked perfect. Chicken Gravy good too, chicken cooked well. Not a favourite restaurant, but will visit again.

T. M.

The food was fresh and tasted amazing with generous portion sizes. Great service too. Only downside was that we had to wait around half an hour for the food.

T. P.

Lovely food. Really enjoyed the Dosa. Although it was busy I was served very quickly I was concerned about the reviews regarding the wait but that was not my experience. Staff were polite and friendly. I will certainly be coming back!

V. K.

The weekend unlimited buffet is superb! Ideal for a family outing. And it starts at 10 AM on weekends, perfect timing!

S. S.

Good place to have Dosa and filter coffee. Good value for money. Good Tamil music in the background. Gives u hometown vibes. Quantity is fair enough. Busy often.

-. M.

Amazing mixed and masala does, highly recommend the mixed dosa, but make sure you don't get the green chillies if you can't handle the heat. Really really good food. Will definitely return!

Y. c.

Welcoming people. Excellent authentic Indian food. I ordered Rasam and veg biryani, absolutely tasty. Timing for serving is excellent. I have been there about 5 times in last few months and will visit again and again. Namaste

S. T.

Food was fresh and delicious made to perfection. I had dosa, Vadai, gobi Manchurian and Badam kheer. Enjoyed the food very much.. Place was very clean and ambience was very welcoming. Very professional and friendly staff and service. I got my food packed and it was ready in 20 minutes. I fully recommend eating here..

M. P.

I loved this place. Delicious and fresh food.

B. C.

This place is underrated. The food is great and the staff very friendly. Probably the best Indian food I ever had. Very accessible prices as well. Highly recommend!

M. (.

Really nice buffet, it's south Indian food so totally different to the typical Indian tikka masala stuff, much nicer in my opinion. Buffets are great, place is clean and simple. Highly recommended!

p. m.

Very authentic food. Friendly service. Reasonably price. We had manchurian, masala dosa, idlis, lassis.. matka kulfi.... fresh juices and fresh mocktails... every thing tasted as if you are in South india... the restaurant got really busy after 7pm...

S. J.

Best place to have Dosa in Coventry !!

T. T.

Take long time to give food.but tasty food.you must come again to taste.

R. M.

Good food and good staffs.. There will rush in peak time.

A. r.

Visited this place for the morning breakfast. The food was decent for the price . It was priced less for the amount of food option provided . It is not buffet system actually where you can have all the food unlimited rather we can have masala Dosa and the dosa unlimited. The poori ,pongal , upma ,vada and kaseri is limited and only served once . Overall the ambience was fresh and refreshing with friendly staff. Enjoy eating 😛

P. T.

Nice place..good dosa and Vada...loved it

A. R.

Staff is very slow at taking orders and service. Also, general cleanliness can be better. Food is good, can be a bit greasy at times.

K. S.

Chicken biryani with good quantity and quantity..

s. 1.

Great food and they did gud service and especially so muchdosa varieties yummy🤗

M. Z.

The best indian food for me not spicy and taste good

P. G.

Toilet is dirty. Floor is slippery near the entrance and buffet area. Food was average. The gentleman with glasses serving didn't feel like serving and wasn't in the mood for it.

G. P.

Dosa, idly were tasty and yummy but chilli chicken 🐓 and non veg gravy (salna)for parotta were not good..

A. M.

The food is scrumptious. Especially the breakfast buffet on weekends. Hot steamy idlis, fresh dosas and the pongal is lip smacking. Our favourite food stop for sure..

N. K.

One of my favourite place now. Clean environment, staff are very attentive, filter coffee is best! Food is amazing! 😁

A. R.

Amazing food, authentic atmosphere and super friendly staff! Came for breakfast with my husband and felt like I was in India 😍

m. f.

A typical indian style food place. That's what I want to tell you about this place. Of course they're doing great in business and I saw that while I was having dinner. The taste is great because there wasn't any indian restaurants nearby. The parotta, Tea and filter coffee here is super and affordable too. Other foods, I think it is good too. I will definitely try other items too. Chicken Chettinad is not upto the mark. Don't expect the same taste as your hometown

R. K.

Very cost effective restaurant, with decent quality of Indian food and ambience for people who eat out frequently. Worth the money you spend.

S. M.

We have visited the restaurant on Sunday,,, we did buffet staff is very kind we got the menu at arrival ,,, our food came very quickly ,,,, service was excellent

Best dosa outside chennai. Breakfast buffet is value for money.

S. R.

Good food.. rarely any issue. People welcome in smiling face. Only problem cash only. Atm next door charges a lot to withdraw.

V. G.

Hello Friends, Very good hospitality 👍 Nice ambience 👌 We ordered chicken kari dosa but the quantity wasn't good as expected. Dosa was huge but chicken fillings wasn't satisfied😄

R. K.

Food is absolutely outstanding. Service could be a little quicker but the staff are fabulous. Thank you for a fab day

a. j.

Not the usual Chennai dosa style , food very bland. Well it's new here in Coventry , so will try again later.
