Onion Podi Dosa was 9/10. Chicken Kothu Paratha was a 8/10. Service is as relatively prompt with the servers greeting us once we sat down. Ambiance was a bit dark and kinda warm. But to be expected in the Phoenix summers. Overall clutch place for Dosa cravings. Def will be back

I've been twice now, so it's official--this place has me in a chokehold…read more Tucked away in North Scottsdale, it's quiet, chic, intimate, and both times I've visited, the restaurant has been comfortably full. Everything is clean and well-kept, bathrooms included. The chicken tikka masala is phenomenal--tender chicken in a perfectly spiced, flavor-packed sauce. The vegetable samosas are some of the best I've ever had, especially with their mint chutney, which deserves its own round of applause. I got a little excited and ate one samosa before remembering I needed a picture. Thankfully, I saved one for Yelp. And the garlic naan?! Crispy around the edges, soft and perfectly chewy, loaded with garlic and cilantro. I actually ate the leftovers the NEXT DAY. If you know me, that carries significant weight because I do not do leftovers. I literally carried that naan around until every last piece was gone. The people running the restaurant are incredibly kind and welcoming, and the service has been wonderful both visits. I've tried a LOT of Indian food, and this is easily one of my favorites. Anytime I'm back in Scottsdale, I'm coming back. The naan and mint chutney alone have secured my return.

Unassuming Indian/Pakistani place for a casual and filling meal. I stopped in for lunch and got the…read morechicken tikka dosa. They serve the dosa kind of like a wrap, where all the tikka filling is wrapped into the crispy dosa bread. It comes with coconut and tomato chutneys which were both flavorful. The spice level is great. I got a 3/5 and it was a good amount of heat without being overpowering. My friend got the maximum spice and he thought it was perfect if you like it spicy. The portions were HUGE and I could not eat all of it, but makes for great leftovers. Would definitely recommend!

Rhiannon and Jonah cheerfully greeted us, along w the GM. We dined on a mix of plates of a Lentil Soup, a spicy potato dish, Chicken Biryani, Garlic Naan, and a Yogurt and Peanut Dip. Classically spiced and while good portion size, yet not overfilling. We were able to meet partner/chef Nigel for a personal touch.

Dear Indibar What happened? Our previous 5 star dining…read moreexperience was barely three stars last night. The ribs were dry and flavorless, butter chicken dry beyond edible. Dirty dishes remained on our table when servers dropped off more dishes, I should not have to ask for them to be removed. Bread and rice good but should not be the highlight of our dinner. Is this your new standard or dare we try again?

The Chicken Masala was creamy and very flavorful with a perfect balance of spices. The Vegetable Korma was rich and creamy with just the right amount of spice and a subtle sweetness. Both dishes paired perfectly with the basmati rice and fresh naan bread. The portions were filling and comforting. Even though we were full, we couldn't resist sharing a mango smoothie which I think had a yogurt base and not overly sweet which is exactly how I like it. They kindly gave us a complimentary dessert, Gulab Jamun, which I'm already looking forward to order the next time we come back. The atmosphere is elegant and our waitress was so kind and genuinely happy that we enjoyed the food. We had a fantastic experience and will definitely be coming back!

If you are from North Phoenix or West Valley, this is the closet place to get a MEAN dosa. All of the South Indian food is great here. If you come here and expect a good Butter Chicken, lol. Order South Indian food and you won't be disappointed. The food at Chennai Cafe is salty, spicey, and tangy. It's got a good mix of all the flavors that remind me of home. I specifically get the Thali meals. These meals have a bit of every curry that is made that day. Usually split between 2 veg curries, 2 nonveg curries, rice, naan (roti), yogurt, and a dessert. All the curries were excellent. I couldn't eat the entire thali as the quantity of food will put you to sleep, so I ate all the meat stuff with the rice and bread and took all the vegetarian/dessert stuff home. Service is typical Indian restaurant, bunch of dudes standing around. You'll have to flag them down anytime you want something. Don't be shy to do so! That's how you do it at an Indian restaurant. Ambiance is typical no-frills Indian restaurant. Don't expect white glove treatment here. Small dining room area with chairs pretty close to each other. However, know what you are going to order and it'll come out fresh and spicy. Definitely an all time favorite for me in the Valley.

During our meal we were each asked if we wanted a dosa and we replied "heck ya!" There were two choices and I got the one with potato inside. Sorry, I wasn't sure what the other choice was. The only thing that wasn't as appetizing was that we had to use paper plates on the buffet. We saw some of the other diners had real plates so I am not sure if they either ordered from the menu (which is an option) or if the restaurant just ran out of clean plates. This is definitely not something that affected my review and desire to return. We will definitely be back!
