Customer Reviews
Great seafood restaurant!!! As we entered, the decor is quiet simple but looking good. We were suggested to select the seafood which we would like to eat. The dishes were very good in taste with authentic local flavors. Mocktails were average. The service was excellent.. A bit heavy on pocket but if you are foodie then don’t miss chance to savor..
By far one of the best sea food restaurants in Chennai. Food: I relished all the dishes that were ordered. But my personal favourite was fish masala fry and fish fry. Yummmmmmm!!! Service: Great service, attentive staff. Atmosphere: Ground floor ambience was regular with the view of the sea food on ice :)
They couldn’t have been more helpful. We walked in and saw a fish counter of bright eyed fresh fish, crab, prawns and lobster. We chose a large Seabass for R2,900. Then we chatted what they would do with it. They made it into 3 different and extraordinary dishes - lemon and garlic curry, a grilled fillet with a rub and a traditional southern fish curry with coconut served with paratha. We started with some garlic spiced tiger prawns and had chilled bottled water. They were so friendly, so kind and so generous sharing their ideas as to what they should do. Our best meal in India
We were recommended to o here by a local guide and we were not disappointed. It was fabulous. A huge range of fresh fish on display to choose from. We chose a sea bass & some tiger prawns. The bass was filleted and cooked in 3 ways. Prawns were amazing. Staff were so friendly and super helpful. Yes, more expensive than other places but absolutely worth it!
