" I can't say enough about the quality of food here! Rani Chettinad offers a variety of delicious South Indian dishes that truly deliver on authenticity. The Mysore masala dosa was perfection—crispy and served with fresh chutneys. The only downside was that it took a long time for the check to come at the end of the meal. But I would definitely recommend trying it out. It's worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Rani Chettinad last weekend, and it was an interesting experience. The service was quick and the food came out hot, but I found that my Hyderabadi biryani lacked some of the depth of flavor I’ve had elsewhere. However, the garlic naan was fantastic and I’ll probably give them another shot to try their dosas! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was outstanding! Tried the masala dosa and naan, both were flavorful paired with fresh chutneys. The promptness of the service was commendable, and the restaurant had a friendly vibe. I would highly recommend Rani Chettinad to anyone looking for delicious Indian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great first impression! I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the dosas—they were crispy and just the right size for breakfast. The service staff kept refilling our water, which shows they care about customer satisfaction. I left feeling satisfied and looking forward to another visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had high hopes but left a bit underwhelmed. The Chicken curry was too bland, nothing to write home about, and while the service was decent, the loud atmosphere made it difficult to have a conversation. Sometimes it felt like they were more focused on getting tables served quickly than creating a good experience. I might give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Rani Chettinad is the best when it comes to South Indian cuisine! Truly authentic flavors—I just loved the pepper chicken. It was spicy and packed with flavor, emerging as a standout in my experience. Staff was attentive and made me feel at home. The atmosphere was lively but comfortable. Will be definitely returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance at Rani Chettinad is charming! I had their lamb curry, which was hearty and aromatic. However, the service could use a bit of work because there was a delay in getting my order just right. I still enjoyed my meal overall—it’s definitely worth a visit if you like Indian food!
