Chennai Dosa in Coventry

pleas maintain hygienic ur...washroom clean properly

Well, where do I even begin with this place? The staff at this restaurant are just so incredibly romantic with each other that they seem to forget about the regular customers. It's almost like we're invisible to them as they gaze lovingly into each other's eyes and share secret smiles. I mean, who needs attentive service when you can witness a real-life romance novel unfolding right before your eyes, right? And forget about getting your food in a timely manner – it's much more important for the staff to steal looks👀in the corner. So if you're looking for a dining experience where you can feel like a third wheel in someone else's love story, this is the place for you. Just don't expect to actually eat any food while you're there.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with the food, which was below my expectations. This was, unfortunately, one of the most unsatisfactory meals I have ever had.

I recently ordered a meal from Chennai Dosa in Coventry, and I regret to say that my experience was nothing short of disappointing. The anticipation for a delicious South Indian meal quickly turned into frustration and dissatisfaction. First and foremost, the online ordering process was cumbersome and confusing. I had to navigate through numerous screens just to place a simple order, which took significantly longer than expected. Once I finally completed the order, I was assured of a delivery window that comfortably fit my schedule. Unfortunately, the timely delivery was not upheld. My order arrived an hour late, and when it finally arrived, it was lukewarm at best. I had hoped that the food would be worth the wait, but alas, it fell short of expectations. The dosa was rubbery and lacked the crispy texture that one would normally anticipate from a quality restaurant. The accompanying chutneys were bland and uninspiring, and the sambar tasted watered down. On top of the food quality, customer service was disappointing as well. When I attempted to reach out to the restaurant about the delay and food quality, I was met with dismissive responses. There was a distinct lack of concern for customer satisfaction, which was incredibly frustrating. To sum it up, Chennai Dosa in Coventry has a lot of room for improvement. Between poor online ordering efficiency, late delivery, subpar food quality, and lack of customer service, my experience was far from what I had hoped for. Sadly, I cannot recommend this restaurant based on my experience and would encourage others to explore more reliable options for authentic South Indian cuisine. 0 stars from me.

I have visited this restaurant multiple times, but this time, it was a disappointing and bad experience. We ordered Schezwan chicken fried rice but received normal fried rice without the Schezwan sauce. We informed the staff, but they prepared something with extra chili powder, which was inedible. Additionally, the service was poor and unhelpful, making the experience even worse.

Update: This used to be one of our favourite spots for South Indian cuisine. Lately, the quality and taste of food had gone down drastically. It has become hard to recommend this place anymore. Instead of introducing new dishes, they should focus more on keeping the quality existing items. Amazing South Indian restaurant. Authentic taste and ambience. Dosas are just perfect. Definitely recommend if you’re Indian or like Indian cuisine.

Its just waste of money and hurting your taste buds. I wish there was an option to give 0 star as rating. Tomato rice has just uncooked tomatoes and tadka rice with a horrinle tasting oil. Palak paneer had palak sprinkled and just around 3 to 4 peices of paneer, tastes soo pathetic. Parota was filled with salt. Roti was uncooked.

Excellent food and smiling staff. Although tables are usually not very hygenically clean. Mop marks are seen. But overall very good place.

One of the big franchise getting reputation spoiled due to poor management. Cold biryani served .. seems like stored in fridge. Didn’t warmed it enough to serve. Masala soda is like paper roast. Not same as expected. Staff and serving needs improve significantly.

Completely waste of money really ridiculous. No spices . I paid for cheese but no there . Ridiculous sambar and chutney sooo bad . And Ordered veg noodles really taste less never gonna order again from here. Complete waste of money and taste.

Great food Helpful staff Brilliant portion size and wonderful vegan options What's not to like

Food's really good ! But service needs to be better

Breakfast platter was good but was not served hot

The food here is amazing and delicious . The service is great here .

Unbelievable place to dine in.... i can't wait to come back....👌

The food at Chennai dosa was incredible, full of rich flavors and perfectly cooked. Great service and a wonderful dining experience overall!

I love the place. The best dosa outside India. Great food, authentic, no fuss and service with a smile. The weekend special is just amazing.

Review for Coventry branch- I have ordered 2 masala dosa and I put the big note please spread the masala all over the dosa but they ignored and even I can see the long human hair in the sauce. I called them. One lady answered my call. She said we are too busy. We don’t have time to talk you. She’s soo rude. She’s shout on me. I called them 2-3 time but they totally ignored. If you have problem then order it again. I throw the food in the bin. I wasted my money. I am regular customer of Chennai dosa since last 5-6 years. I visited Leicester, Birmingham, Manchester, derby, Coventry and London as well. Every weekend I ordered. Really disappointed. Will not be ordering or recommending again.

The parotta ordered was not cooked properly.

Awful had via deliveroo ordered dishes I order at every curry house I use and this one was nothing like the dishes I ordered. Curry was disgusting and certainly not what I was expecting. Egg fried rice had everything accept egg in it raw cabbage, chicken and looked and tasted like cumin was poured over the top. Garlic naan bread what I actually received was a very crispy chapati. 90% of this order has been put in the bin. Don't use Chennai dosa !

Dosa was awful, undercooked, soggy, fillings had no taste. No seasoning. Would rate less than a star.

Soggy and not tasty Never recommended

Good service and amazing food as always

not a pleasant place to eat Food less than average

I wanted to thank you so much for helping make our party an enjoyable event. The food was remarkable and the event staff was very well-timed, professional and cordial specially Rishi . Everything worked out perfectly. Rishi achieved everything we were hoping for, a relaxed atmosphere and delicious food. Thank you so much Rishi for make our party so memorable.

Pls i request you guys not to try food here. No hygiene, old food and caused food poison for my wife and kids.

I took chicken biryani bucket. There is no rice quantity, I got only marinated gravey.it is too spicy. My kids are not able to eat.

No good service. Rude to customers. They will not follow the instructions given in the comment for delivery or comment. Customer service is not good

First visit and wasn't disappointed. Dosa's were very tasty and kids enjoyed their noodle. Chilli Chips are the best 👌🏼

I have been to this place multiple times, and the food is usually good. I used to love the manager or owner and the staffs were always warm and friendly. It always felt nice to visit. However, I wonder if the management or team has changed.When I went yesterday, the experience was quite different. A guy took our orders, and we specifically asked him to bring certain items first and the others later, once we were done. Unfortunately, he brought the items in the wrong order. When we politely pointed this out, he became upset, took the food away, and then brought the other items later, even taking our plates away in the process. His attitude was really bad.Later, he admitted that it was their mistake but it was obvious that he wasn't genuinely sorry. We also had a bad feeling about the food. To top it off, when we paid the bill, we noticed that we were charged for desserts we never ordered. My friend had already paid by then. Although they refunded the money when we pointed it out, the standards have clearly dropped. With such poor customer service, I’m certain we won’t be returning.

Very reasonable prices food was quite good but most of all service was fantastic will surely visit again

Me and my family really enjoyed the experience in chennai Dosa.

Dosa is awsome. All the shakes are yummy...

Morden restaurant and friendly staff. Food is absolutely fantastic. Tasty and portions size is ampoule. Great for families.

A quick feedback about chennai dosa -Coventry branch. We visited this today(being Monday and weekday) our expectations where pretty minimum! . however right from the time we entered it was very welcoming and great customer care with delicious food! We haven't received this kind of support in ordering best dishes with great inputs from any of our branches earlier. Special thanks to Diana & all the chefs who .made those delicious dishes . Specially chill fish,mutton biryani, chicken lollipop and badam milk...brilliant team. Will keep visiting Regards, Harish

For just a dosha i have to wait 40 minutes.. very disappointed.

Excellent food and excellent service. As always.

The food was amazing, the dosa was so tasty. Great value for money too.

I was so excited and went to restaurant but they made me upset. I ordered chicken biryani when they bring 2 pieces of chicken no flesh it was bone . So I asked waiter to bring new piece of chicken and even that one was burnt . I think they just reheating and giving they not making proper biryani very disappointed . Manager is irresponsible when I complain he smiling and I said because of your service I pay half and he charged me full price. I will post picture of burnt chicken.

Absolutely loved the place top food and top service. Very clean . Fresh as

Very nice food and very good service

Amazing place amazing service and food was mind blowing good ! Loads of parking at the front and also at the back and very fast service .

Breakfast on weekends is really good but they don't provide still water(Highlands) and they doesn't allow to bring your own water, which makes me annoyed, I use Highlands water all the time,I regularly go to this place every week atleast once/twice after the multiple discussion with staff on water bottle, no more interest to go. At least you should allow the water, if you can't provide it to the customer.

Went again when it was quiet and atleast got attention from waiters.... :@) Food has improved Some items not available

NOTE: CARD PAYMENT NOT ACCEPTED if bill is below 10 pounds. I recently had the pleasure of dining at Chennai dosa restaurant and was blown away by the amazing food and exceptional service. I ordered the dosa and tandoori chicken from the menu, and both dishes exceeded my expectations. The dosa was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with just the right amount of filling. The tandoori chicken was mouth-watering, tender and juicy, with the perfect balance of spices that brought out the unique flavor of the dish. The restaurant's ambiance was also pleasing and contributed to an enjoyable dining experience. The decor was tasteful, and the seating arrangements provided comfort and enough privacy for groups or individuals. What stood out for me the most was the remarkable service received from the staff. They were attentive, accommodating, and always ready to make sure that my needs were fully met. I truly felt like a valued customer during my visit. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for delicious food and an exceptional dining experience. If you are a fan of Indian cuisine or just looking to explore new flavors, this place is a must-visit. The dosa and tandoori chicken were both simply amazing, and the service was outstanding. I will definitely be visiting this restaurant again.

Authentic south indian cuisine, very nice food and ambience. Loved the spicy masala dosa, sambar Vada, Paneer tikka.

Food taste was good. Only problem was that it was served bit late. Otherwise all good.

loved the masala dosa, sambar idly, masala poppadom, chilli mogo, masala tea, oothapam yummyy!!! value for money

This restaurant is truly a standout for dosa lovers in the UK. Having been a loyal customer for the past two years, I can confidently say that their commitment to excellence in both food and service is unwavering. The staff consistently provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere, always greeting patrons with a genuine smile. The quality of the dosas is exceptional, and the overall dining experience never fails to impress.

Good service and excellent taste

Fantastic food, great atmosphere, would definitely recommend.

Me and my pregnant wife visited today and ordered some items off the menu we have had a few times before. Not sure if the management or owners have changed not that it should make any difference but it was a displeasing atmosphere from the go but to top it off I had some chicken that I suspected was undercooked. I raised with the waiter who showed to the chef who both agreed it was just the chicken marinate that had coloured the chicken. I was not satisfied with this especially considering my wife is pregnant. Thankfully when I offered her some she refused then when I noticed the raw look of it I’m so glad she had none. The restaurant was reluctant to accept the issue and the whole meal was left untouched. I requested this item be removed from my bill which was refused until myself and my wife started to challenge the charge of it. I did agree to pay for the other food which was vegetarian therefore had no issue with paying for what we had actually eaten. After several minutes of back and forth and the manager being called it was taken off the bill however just be careful visiting this place. We don’t always cut the chicken to eat it as it’s was in smaller pieces so you don’t always notice this. Luckily we did. Poor customer service. Mistakes happen but at least accept the issue and resolve it. I’ve attached pictures for the people to see if I was wrong in what I saw. Thanks

Good food - mixed veg plan and paneer as great . Haleed cooked wel . Thanks to him

I ordered mutton biryani today as takeaway, and when I tried it home, there was not a single piece of mutton in biryani. They charged me 9.75£ for biryani and roll. I will not come back to chennai dosa again and will not recommend it to any of my friends.

Food was delicious,staff and service was excellent

Good authentic south indian food

Breakfast was cold. But price wise cheap and service was good.

My wife and I for the first time, came to meet with our friends. We had a wonderful time. Amazing food and beautiful ambience. The waitress Diana was very kind and polite. Overall very happy with the service

Great food, lovely service by Diana

Must try Indian foods in Coventry. Good service by Mr. Ashok.

Love their service, nice management. Authentic South Indian food

Excellent dosa, authentic tea and biriyani.Must try south Indian cuisine

Wonderful atmosphere, very tasty and authentic Indian food, the service done by Ashok was really commendable. The cleanliness is really amazing.

They do buffet breakfast Saturday and Sunday, and bank holidays.

Nice Indian food, away from the norm

Breakfast deal and chicken kebabs are dam delicious

Really good food, service was fantastic , we had ghee masala dosa, prawn 65,kids dosa. Food was really good.i also order mutton biryani regularly.

Always go at lunchtime, place is nice and clean. Dosas are spot on

Awesome food, excellent service. Best south Indian food in Coventry

We have ordered chicken Briyani and it tasted really authentic and service was great.

Food is amazing, though starter portion sizes a little small

Good food and good ambience. Lovely staff.

Very good service and authentic taste ! Mini sambar idli is one of the best i had in UK. They do have lot of vegetarian items . Loved it . They have free parking space at the back of the restaurant

Food can't get worser than this! Service is mediocre too. Will never be back!

I tried many restaurants but Chennai Dosa is the number one restaurant in the Coventry. This is specially famous for different kind of dosa's and they have also varieties of non-veg and veg dishes. I highly recommend that everyone should visit there and must try once.

Food very good ,diana very helpfull

Great food absolutely delicious Great service from Diana She was attentive and took nite of my sisters gluten free dietary needs.

We love South Indian food, and it was great to discover a good dosa place when I moved to Longford. We love the dosa, utapam and curries here. Today we tried the idly with poonda gravy (whole garlic and dried red chillies in a broth!) It’s my new favourite thing! We’re vegetarian and so good food like this is very welcomed. Service is friendly and the place is bright and cheery. Can’t recommend Chennai Dosa more highly! :))

Good customer service and food taste is good....

Adipolii 👌👌.. Great food.. Good quantity..

Amazing service. Staff is very nice and genuine

On multiple visits, I noticed that the taste of dishes varied considerably leaving me unsure of what to expect each time. The most frustrating aspect was the consistently long wait times, making dining here a test of patience. And cash only if the bill is less than £10. They need to improve their customer service ♿️✅ Wheelchair accessible entrance 🚻✅ Toilet available 🅿️🚫 You have to find a parking outside alongside the street.

Appreciate their service, they didn't have salads however they did serve with the vegetables they had.

Food is good. Ambience is good and service is also good. Will keep coming back. Thanks

Ashok served us with great compassion, acknowledging us and sat us down comfortably. The food was awesomely delicious. It made me feel like being in South India. Brought tears in my heart with all the South Indian music.

Delicious food and lovely staff

I've always been a huge fan of Chennai Dosa Coventry, two days ago when ordered my package kept spilling (couldn't have been the restaurants intention) , I was shocked as this happened twice and spoke to Mr Ashok regarding this, after this instance he mentioned that i must mention in notes to change the packaging style and he promised that it wouldn't happen again. After this , I felt very confident and placed an order , my food came in really hot and fresh and was not spilled at all! I'm so glad the restaurant decided to change the packaging. In terms of food, Chennai Dosa Coventry is the best place to go to if you're craving good authentic Indian food. I'm from Chennai and I even felt that the taste was beyond Chennai's restaurants. Thank you Mr Ashok for solving this issue and for being extremely sweet and accomodating. The restaurant is truly a gem and deserves so much more love and recognition.

Nice place to dine out with friends and family.

Good food and good service by Priyanka and team !!

Food is good, but the taste is not maintained consistently. Otherwise it is a great place.

Beautiful upgrade to new dinning, love the food

The non-veg dishes we tried—chicken biriyani, mutton biriyani, tawa fish fry, and pepper chicken—were a huge disappointment. It's embarrassing to associate Chennai's name with such awful taste. Charging £10 for two small cups of chicken soup, which was basically hot cornflour water with a sprinkle of spring onions and lacking even salt, is ridiculously overpriced. It feels like the chef might be vegetarian and lacks the know-how to cook Indian non-veg dishes. Also the quantity of starters is a joke for that price. Never going here again.

Delicious south Indian food and awesome service . Highly recommended
