Comparing with other indian restaurants in London I suggest this one
Authentic Indian food & indo Chinese if you remember that Indian Chinese van fooo, try once.Even in the party buffet you can enjoy the same food.
We visited Chettinad today and what a lovely place! We had been looking for a good south Indian restaurant and we found this little gem! Waiter Arun was very welcoming and very friendly. The food was delicious and so very reasonably priced. We would definitely return without a doubt when we are in the area again.
Since I'm from India I understand how Indian food is supposed to be. This is not how South Indian food ideally tastes. However said that, Indians who are missing home and other people who wanna try Indian food, this is a good place.
Excellent India food in the heart of the city. We had ordered for mutton biryani, prawns, their thali. Quality and quantity of food is very good. The service is also pretty nice.

OMG! Finally an Indian restaurant in London that I can whole heartedly recommend. Until now whenever a non-Indian friend in London has asked me where they can get good Indian food in central London, I answer some version of "an Indian home"
Chettinad as their name suggests, focuses on the food from the Chettinad region of Southern India. It's almost 85% there in authenticity. Spices have been subdued from this fiery cuisine, but the complexity of flavours is still present.
The staff is very comfortable with their menu and love explaining the subtle differences to non-Indian visitors. From what I could hear at our neighbouring tables, they were quite accurate too.
They are very very good with allergies, recommending I avoid the fried fish as it was fried in the same oil as the prawns (which I'm allergic to)
The thali is always a great choice in an Indian restaurant, giving you a little bit of everything. We also loved the chicken biryani.
Let the wait staff know your spice tolerance and protein choices and let them recommend the best combination for you.
The food was excellent and I can see us going back here multiple times.
Really great lunch special! My Vegan friend was accommodated too. The staff is so sweet and friendly. As you walk in you can smell how delicious the food is!
Service was great, staff friendly.
Loved the food as well. We had the gobhi 65 and the Mysore masala dosa. Appropriately spicy not overly so. Would recommend just for the dosa and sambal alone. Best to make reservations as it was quite crowed.
One of the proper south indian restaurants in central london. Even though this is from a place famous for non vegetarian cuisine, their vegetarian options are pretty good. Also the masala chai was on point.
Nice place, good food!
I dont know what to write anymore.. Mmm..
The waiters were very nice. I recommend taking a 23 spices lamb. That's it!
Delicious South Indian food in London. Probably made with Indian spices by Indian chefs. Food has the authentic south Indian feel and taste. The presentation is good. Delays can be expected during peak times. For large groups advance reservation is advisable. Interior is well designed to make the South Indian atmosphere but there's limited seating.
We were a large group and wanted to have separate bills, which wasn't entertained by the staff. At the end it was a hassle to locate each one's food and charge accordingly. Resulted in an unpleasant customer experience. A definite area for improvement.
Overall it was a reasonably good experience thanks to the quality food.
The food was great, the servers were all friendly without being overbearing. The food was out quickly (we were there during a slow time tho). We really enjoyed everything~ Would recommend it!
Exceptional. The Pilao had such fragrance. The lamb i had was so tender but the curry was so so good.
The parantha was a bit chewy but very good and the aubergine was quite a small portion and very spicy hence 4 stars. I would say visit. Experience it.
The decor and staff were excellent. Really great ambience.
Other than accidentally handing me the wrong bill (which they were quick to rectify) it was brilliant and ill be back.
We came to London from The Netherlands for our summer vacation and we were searching for nice restaurants all over the Google and finally decided to try at Chettinad restaurant.
The food is amazing. I felt like I am in India with the taste. We thoroughly enjoyed all the dishes served by Prashob 😊 he is so friendly and helpful with my children. Thank you for the amazing food and the service.
Keep up the quality and you will raise more.
We had the Gobi 65, Masala Dosa, Kathrika Kara Kulambu and Kilangu Bonda.
Our favourite dish was the Kathrika Kara Kulambu.
Service was fine, food came out reasonably quick and was delicious.
Overall, an enjoyable dining experience.
Delicious food! Really really enjoyable. Plus lovely service and waiting staff who were happy to talk through the menu. Would recommend!
An amazing place with lip smacking south Indian food. i had the sea food thali and my friend had the non vegetarian thali. both came with a great selection of curries, rice and bread. the rasam is to die for - which speaks volumes, since despite the simple nature of the dish very few restaurants nail it, and Chettinad is one that does. the wait staff is helpful and will explain the menu of need be. Go for the food!!
First time in my life I had the real South Indian food outside India.
Totally authentic food and ambience.
Congratulations to the Chettinad team to keep the Indian tradition alive in London

Absolutely brilliant food, kind service and relaxing atmosphere. A lovely waiter even gave us coffee on the house. Highly recommend.
Authentic, delicious and the tastiest food I have eaten in central london !! We had the chicken and fish starters and took the seafood and veggie thali. The chicken was crispy with the right level of spice 😋. The seafood thali was the most delicious 😋. It’s a must try !! Highly recommend this place and especially if you are around central london, this is easy access from Tottenham Court Road. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
