Chennai Dosa (353 High St North)

I do not understand why people criticise Chennai Dosa, as they provide delicous food for a very reasonable price. I bet that nobody can find quality food at this price any where in London. I have been to many different south indian restaurants and i can promise you Chennai Dosa is the best. Also i can guarantee that everyone who goes they will be satisfied.

One of the worst restaurants i have ever seen in london.

I wonder how such restaurants are allowed by councils.. no professionalism... having three restaurants in east ham does not mean anything if you cannot run them successfully...

Please change the way you run these or better close them..very bad experience...

Pros - good south indian food at a good price.

Cons - Terrible service; the waiters ignore you for long periods of time. Waiters are not friendly.

- badly run. half the dishes are unavailable. whenever i go, the biriani and other chicken are not available.

- very unclean. walls had some food on them that seemed old and really stuck on. the plates and cups were very dirty. front windows were cracked too. overall its very disapointing.

I often visit the one in wembley once i finish my office. Not too bad these days. still there is a room for improvement. Specially if you can maintain the same quality of food all the time.

Service is horrible. It takes quite a while till you get your food and a few tries till you get the attention of the waiter. I called one and he said he was coming and on the way he stopped and set up another table and completely forgot about us.

The mango lassi wasnt lassi it was yoghurt with a bit of sugar. The Masalla dosai should have been called namak dosai as it was far too salty. The lamb biryani was bone biryani. The curries looked like they were really old. And the sambhar was smelling bad.

And there were other things you could have complained about including hygiene.

Overall: Catastrophe. Do NOT go to this place!!!!!

Let me also join this to say my experience in wembley central. Service was very cordial but then as usual food arrives very late. some times feel like walking out but I like south indian food so..... Its just that you have to give on RIGHT TIME.

Went there last week (Manor Park, non-vegetarian).

Was shunted up through a dirty staircase into a windowless room upstairs, and had to ask twice for air con to be put on. Service was rubbish- had to wait up to 50 minutes for some of the drinks on what was the hottest day of the year, and even then canned drinks came unchilled. When ice was asked for we were brought two cubes after a further wait.

Staff were disinterested and unable to bring the dishes at the right time, with main courses arriving before starters etc. This seems to be a typically Chennai dosa problem. Aside from this, good value, good food. Just get a takeaway rather than frequenting the restaurant.
