one of the best hospitality and ambiences
great drink menu
food recommends calamari and hariyali prawn
we hadchickenmomos which was 80%

great place to hang out with friends. beach view is just perfect to light up the evening.
they offer nice combos: 2 starters+ main course + dessert+ drink for 399/-
got 1 combo,chickenskewers and calamari fries
chicken skewers - were a lil sweet in taste. being a hot head i didn't enjoy it much.
calamari fries- served with french fries and mayo.
these rings of love were crispy to the max. perfect side.

the crispy calamari was amazing but a tad bit rubbery. the seafood pasta is outstanding! i'd recommend the burger if you don't mind getting messy because they're huge in size but packed full of flavor, not that i'm complaining though. bring a bib.
thechickenpad thai was a miss for me though.

good place to go if you want some good music and good food. the staff is very polite. we had a veg burger, mushroom tacos andchickenwings. everything tasted very nice. since our order got delayed by around 30 mins (due to some confusion in tables by the staff), the owner was humble enough to give a free beer to compensate.
the only suggestion will be to have more variety of beers.

monday afternoon bad vibes
sat at the bar counter and started off with the usual a draught beer 500ml. ordered a ocean’s basket - a combo off prawns , crumb fried fish , some nethili , squid with fries on the side with tartar sauce. huge portion could count 2 pieces of kind prawns, 3 fish fillet pieces, 8-12 pieces of nethili and roughly around 10-25 pieces of squid and a bowl full of french fries. later on had their penne pasta in pink sauce withchicken.. it was goood.
though the delay while starting to eat the food while it was cold it wasn’t rubbery .. crunchy and yummy.
staffs were courteous. food was delicious.
will be back to checkout more.

loved the beach view and ambience. the foods are really gud ordered- fries, calamari,chickenfried momos. cocktail-the sexy monica. shots- painkiller, dirty martini. it was my first tym trying cocktail really enjoyed.and loved the that momos😍 didn't shared with anyone finished it by my self 😁

will give 0 star if i had the option. for this dump yard place the staff talk as though they from a different cadre & make u feel unnecessarily uncomfortable. one instance is we ordered for masala peanuts along with our drinks, for which the staff's answer was,' it's not a local bar to serve these dishes 🤣🤯' it was rot beer not draught beer,chickenwas dead several years back completely overcooked ! let the owner know their staff's cockiness is costing him !

my another fav place. the food portion was a bit less but the pricing is not that costly. i loved their tandoorichickenplatter and their bacon wrapped sausages. they were the best. and i am huge fan of their kamikaze shots.. one of the best ever. i went there on valentine's day and the place was filled with red and white heart balloons and the place was filled with love.

i have heard about this place a lot of times and thought of going there to checkout this place but i never really tried. this time also we planned to go somewhere else but the friend who's leaving chennai wanted to visit. we went there during girf and we had a pass of 50% on alcohol. this plan is applicable only on domestic spirits.
we ordered one chilly paneer which was good. paneer was soft.
kozhi vepudu which is good and is an andhra style chicken.chickenwas soft and well cooked.
penna arrabiata pasta which was okay.
herb roastchickenwith piri piri mash and butter glazed vegetables.chickenwas so soft and very tasty but had bones. it was supposed to be without bones.
in drinks we ordered one apple martini, batidas, vodka sunrise and mojito. all if the drinks were nice and fancy. place was crowded and the staff members were nice. at the end they take a lot of time to get the bill.

draught beer tower ..the taste of beer was not up to mark..it was sharp..! price also high. food is bad...not as before .!chickenwings bad..noodles bad..fired rice bad..prawns bad..!
the only things which were sprb are cocktails.

this place is arguably the most happening place near besant magar beach... it's crowded on all days especially in the evening hours... we went there on a wednesday at 7:30pm, yet it was packed and we had to wait before we could get a table...

coming to the ambience of this place, it's very lively but a bit too loud for my liking... the decor is really nice and the sitting arrangement is also quite nice for a small place like this... the seating arrangement makes the place look bigger than it actually is...

coming to the food, we ordered calamari rings, kabab platter and minced cilantro fried chicken... the food arrived in no time... i was really happy and surprised with the responsiveness of the staff during the busy hours... wow!!! the calamari rings were not upto the mark... it was a bit too chewy... it was a bit cold when it arrived and that was not expected... but despite that the flavors were there... the masala sprinkled on top of calamari was really good... the kabab platter was really nice... especially the hariyali kabab... simply loved it... all the kababs were soft, juicy and succulent... the final one was minced cilantro fried chicken... it was just the normalchickenfingers which had a cilantro sauce as the side... it was nice but nothing special... liked it...

coming to the drinks, had ordered login to bessy... it was fresh and refreshing... the watermelon flavor and orange flavor complemented each other perfectly... really done nicely...

overall a good place to chill out near the elliot beach... if you are looking at a place which has good music, ambience and good drinks, then look no further and hop in to this place...

i’ve had such good time with my friends here. the whiskey sour is amazing. and so is thechickenburger. the pastas are also good. i love the ambience of the place. i no longer live in chennai but if i visit someday, this is the one place i’d like to go.

best place for the beach view
wonderful service kind people
clean place assortedchickenplatter is fine food and one is enough for stomach filling

the ambience is great because you have both indoor and an outdoor seating on the first floor. no restrictions on guys entering the bar in shorts! i recommend you to make reservations or check-in early on weekends. the place gets crowded on the weekends.

it was the time when there was this festival that was going on called “aloha”. it was a hawaiian themed festival which had a special menu and it went on for a limited period of time.

the following dishes were ordered from the special menu,

 potato and bean salad with hawaiian dressing and sesame oil (chicken) - lots of potatoes, beans and chicken. i liked the dish but it could have been less in quantity of the ingredients. especially the potatoes!

 bacon wrapped pineapple with dip - pineapple and cottage cheese both were wrapped with bacon. trust me! this was a dish you could never think off. the dip really went well. i didn’t care to ask what the dip was. the dish was good on its own.

 paprikachickenthighs -chickenthighs were cooked well. the meat was really juicy and tender.

the bbqchickenwings are to die for. just a tad noisy in the evenings since it's full, not easy to hear the other person sitting across, but the overall ambience and food is great.
