"Outdoor seating ambience is as good as Chennai weather allows it to be.The servers were well-versed with the menu, prompt and attentive.Food I liked: Rogan Josh, Thai main courses (fried rice), kebabs"

"Samosa soup. Lotus stem chips. Steamed buns!"

"Tagline: Authentic Telugu cuisine. Spice levels are not for the weak-hearted(and stomached). Non-veg thali was good. Would love to sample the remaining menu items someday :D"

"Walls stamped with a well-executed cartoon mural of Indian coastal life, I was sure food here'd be just as great. But all the curries tasted like a block of liquid salt;no nuance. Solkadi is wonderful"

"While service is slow(as admitted by the staff), time itself seems to slow down here as it overlooks the waters of Serenity Beach; also food is really good. +1 for the fried rice and pepper prawns!"

"Firstly, it took us awhile to figure out that Xtasi was actually 'Ecstasy' ; the feeling the cafe most defn did not provide : Pizza's overpriced, and had cashew as a topping for god's sake!"
