Hotel Crescent, Nungambakkam

"Visited for lunch with a few of my office colleagues who are regular to this place. Had an amazing experience with the food. Chicken stew, Mutton paya and Malabar parrota is what we ordered and both the gravy products had a unique and amazing flavour. A strong coconut flavour in chicken stew was unique for me and mutton stew also had a rich and creamy flavour. To top it of we had coconut payassam which was really wonderful and unique, especially with the coconut pcs with jelly like texture. It was a genuinely interesting and amazing experience at this place. Must visit for non veg lovers."

"Hotel Crescent at Nungambakkam Chennai has been doing its deeds for very many years now.  A good Kerala style cuisine along with the Arabian staples of grills and shawarmas at pocket friendly price tags are it's game order.  The outlet is cramped and bustling during lunch hours.  Standard seating with optimal usage of space is impressive.  The service is swift and attentive. Where they could make better is in their consistency.  We have been dining here for ages and has been one of our favourite places to eat.  The tastes are good but whats taken a beating is in their rendering. There's been a tad drop, as it were.  The fish curry was hot and delicious but the portion of protein did not satiate.  It was a mixed lump of tiny bits and pieces The parotta and gravy, kizhi parotta and the cream of mutton soup were awesome.  The caramel custard was a good swan song to an otherwise uneventful meal. Just can only hope they ring in their past glory soon enough."

"I recently visited this restaurant and had an absolutely delightful experience, made all the more special thanks to Mr. Gunaseharan, the Senior Captain, who served us. From the moment we were seated, his warm hospitality and professionalism stood out. What truly impressed me was his medical background, which he seamlessly integrated into his service. After understanding my specific dietary needs, he thoughtfully recommended dishes that were both delicious and suited to my requirements. It’s rare to find someone in the hospitality industry who combines culinary knowledge with genuine care for a guest’s well-being. The restaurant itself has a lovely ambience, elegant yet comfortable, creating the perfect setting for a relaxed meal. Every detail, from cleanliness to lighting, felt well thought out. The staff worked together efficiently, and I could see that every guest was well taken care of. I had a special request for a particular soup, and the manager kindly ensured it was prepared exactly as I wanted. It was served perfectly, and that level of flexibility and guest care meant a lot to me. Thanks to the attentiveness and the team’s dedication, I left feeling not just satisfied but truly valued as a guest. This was more than just a meal; it was an experience that I’ll remember fondly. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and service that goes above and beyond."

"I am a regular customer of crescent..But last week my roomate had a bad experience. He ordered barbeque. After eating some portion, he found 3-4 feather under the wings. He had reported it to supplier and chef also attended..He didn't make a scene and left the place. I was shocked to learn that they don't even wash chicken once. To management: Please don't compromise on hygeine standards. Take this as a lesson and go for quality improvement and re-sensitising staffs. One such mistake if comes out in open will be too costly"

"This place neve disappoint me for its taste of food any thing you choose will be perfect and of well cooked, especially i am big fan of porotta and grilled chicken here. General neatness and staff friendliness is also good"
