Lakshana's Chettinad South Indian Restaurant

Had an absolutely delightful experience at Lakshana’s Chettinadu South Indian Restaurant! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality — especially by Manmeet, who made sure we felt welcomed and comfortable throughout our visit. I ordered the Chicken 65 Biryani and Lamb Biryani, and both dishes exceeded expectations. The Chicken 65 Biryani was packed with flavor — crispy, well-marinated chicken pieces layered over aromatic, spiced rice. The chicken was tender inside and perfectly crispy on the outside, giving it that authentic South Indian street-style touch. The Lamb Biryani was equally impressive — the mutton was cooked just right, soft, juicy, and full of rich masala flavor. You could really tell the biryani had been slow-cooked with care. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were very reasonable given the quality and authenticity of the food. The ambiance was clean, cozy, and family-friendly, making it a great spot for casual dining or weekend takeouts. The service was prompt and attentive, and it really added to the overall experience. If you’re looking for authentic Chettinadu flavors, great service, and comforting South Indian food at a fair price, Lakshana’s is a must-try. Definitely adding this to my list of go-to places!

Food was quite good. Good flavours coming through. They gently modulated the level of spice for our young accompanying guest. Staff was friendly and amenable to our special requests and questions regarding the house specialties. I can see myself coming back.

I hope the management takes this seriously and improves both food safety standards and staff professionalism. I Visited this place at sainte Catherine location for dinner with a friend and found a thread inside the dosa. I politely informed a staff member, but she ignored it at first and continued serving other customers. After asking again, she took the plate to the kitchen but returned with the same dish and said they’d replace it—without removing it or apologizing and charged regular price. No apology, no proper response. Very poor customer service and handling. Won’t be coming back.

the food was fine. nothing that blew me away but the best thing we got was the special tiffin on the metal tray. everything else was underwhelming

The Biriyani and kothu parotta was below average! It had no flavour at all and they did not even bother using basmati or some good quality rice! You charge as much as others in town then why can’t you provide quality?! Please take away the “Chettinadu” from your name coz nothing I ate had chettinadu flavours.

Food is tasty but a little salty and heavy feeling . Price is highish. Got lamb curry and rice and roti isn’t included. 28.00 after tax before tip. Service was mediocre. I think maybe more of a lunch spot. And also better as a group dining so you can share a few dishes.

Great brunch spot! The food is delicious, fresh, and nicely presented. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend for a tasty and relaxing brunch!

Food was just ok but the service was pathetic. There was just one person serving and taking orders. It was a totally chaotic experience.
