Customer Review Summary
Diners most often return for the thali, with the South Indian and north Indian versions both singled out, and reviewers mention refills of rice and curries and big portions. Dosas come close behind, described as fresh and crispy, with one reviewer praising the ghee masala dosa's rich aroma. Others name the mutton dum biryani, veg noodles, fried rice and a pistachio kulfi to finish. Several call the food authentic, and a few say it reminded them of home. Service is repeatedly described as friendly and welcoming, and one reviewer liked the mouth freshener left on the table. One early breakfast visitor was satisfied with the full range of South Indian breakfast dishes brought to the table. The one critical review came from a diner who found the dishes labelled as regional style below par in ingredients and flavor, and who also called the service slow and the prices high. Reviewers close on details like going back for a second visit within two days.

“I recently visited Chennai Dosa Restaurant in Chelmsford and had the Veg Noodles and Ghee Masala Dosa. Both dishes were absolutely delicious and full of flavour. The dosa was perfectly crispy with a rich ghee aroma, and the veg noodles were fresh and very tasty. This is definitely one of the best restaurants in Chelmsford for authentic Indian food. Highly recommended—it's a must-try!”
