Reviews
The starters were absolutely mind-blowing, and every dish we tried was packed with flavor and quality. I would happily give 5 stars for food, service, and atmosphere without hesitation.
What really stood out—and deserves special mention—is the diaper changing station. This is a huge plus and a real lifesaver for families with infants. Very few restaurants think about this, and it shows how thoughtful and inclusive this location is.
The staff were extremely accommodating and attentive throughout our visit—always around to help, polite, and proactive.
Overall, this is easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve had recently. Highly recommended, especially for families. Will definitely be back!
However, the service wasn’t the best. We only got water after 30 minutes of being seated. Everyone’s main meal came out at different times so we weren’t really eating “together”. The waitress never came to check up on us and the food. Instead we had to wave at them multiple times— for water, to order, the bill, etc. Because we came as a group of 8 there was 18% gratuity, which isn’t a problem— if service is good, but it wasn’t. Overall, pretty restaurant and aesthetic, good food but okay service.
Coming to the food, the Chicken 65 was delicious and packed with rich Chennai-style flavours, just like the Chicken Pakoda, which was equally good. The prawns were tasty as well.
Both Chicken Rasam and Mutton Paya Soup were outstanding — full of authentic South Indian flavour. The Vazhakka Bajji and Papad served with three types of chutneys made for great starters.
The highlight dishes were definitely the Parotta with Salna — freshly made and absolutely flavorful — and the Chicken Kothu Parotta, which was equally yummy. Another standout was the Chicken Fried Rice, which tasted just like authentic street-style fried rice — outstanding!
I also tried the Dosas, Chicken Biryani, and Paneer Dum Biryani; they were decent, and the Jigarthanda was okay.
Overall, it was a nice dining experience with great food and pleasant ambience.
Style Chicken Biryani. Right from the moment I walked in, the customer service really stood out the staff were warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive, which perfectly matched the inviting vibe of the restaurant itself. As for the food, the biryanis had a lovely aroma and were quite decent, though they didn’t fully live up to what we were hoping for. It’s possible that the takeout experience didn’t do the dishes full justice, so next time I plan to dine in and give it another try. I’ve heard great things about their dosas, so I’m definitely looking forward to coming back for those soon.
We had a wonderful time at Simply South restaurant. It was a busy Friday night, yet the orders arrived fairly quickly. Jaspreet, who served us, was thorough in explaining the dishes and offering recommendations. The staff were attentive, clearing empty dishes promptly.
The ambience was inviting, with interior décor reflecting South Indian culture. It was also refreshing to see real plants lined up, adding a pleasant touch. The washroom was bright, well-lit, and clean.
The portion sizes were generous. The parota and curries were excellent. We also enjoyed the lassi and buttermilk, but the highlight of the evening was definitely the Madras coffee. The only minor downsides were the loud noise level—which is quite typical in a lively South Indian restaurant—and the music, which could have been better.
Overall, a delightful dining experience!
