Prepare yourself for a bold statement: Quite possibly the best Indian buffet I've had!
The food here was fantastic, and is the closest thing to home cooked food I've experienced at an Indian restaurant. Coming from Sri Lanka, South Indian cuisine does not stray too widely from some of our dishes and that really came out while I was eating.
You know that moment in Ratatouille when (spoiler warning) the food critic was transported back to his childhood after tasting the ratatouille, well I had a similar experience with some of the food here.
The right amount of spice, affordable pricing, very friendly staff and not an overwhelming choice before you makes this lunch buffet hit you in just the right spots.
The restaurant filled up while we were there with other groups and I didn't see a single non-South Asian face. That could be because of a fact I learnt while there, which was that Anjappar Chettinad is a chain found in a few countries (originating from India) and after having experienced it, I am not surprised at why a lot of Indians covet it. I can only eagerly await my boss taking us out for another lunch here in the near future!Listed in: The Flower City

Came here with a friend who is authentically Indian - born and raised and gave birth to his two (pre-teen and teenage) daugthers in India ...
In his opinion, this is the best Indian buffet around.
I agree that the food is very good but I wouldn't say it was the best Indian food around ... I feel as though I have had better and another downside is that the selection is extremely limited :(
I think there were less than 10 main dishes to choose from and often times, the popular dishes would be all gone. The most popular dish was most surely the dosa. The dosa bread(?) itself was very light, chewy, and crispy, with a hint of sour. It was pretty good ... when you could get it.
The spicy soup (traditional to South Indian cuisine) was very yummy. My friend was worried that it would be too spicy for us but I loved it.
I often judge an indian buffet by its naan bread and I can't say I loved the naan. Too bad :( My son really loved it though, haha. He couldn't get enough :)
The place reminds me of an Irish Pub with some Indian embellishments and flair. The dark wood, the bar, the layout ... all remind me of an Irish pub!
Service was okay ... I felt bad for the waitress. I think there was only one waitress and she was working the entire room. Service was a little slow and spotty but you can't blame her. She was thin and looked tired.
Maybe my expectations were a little too high and this is why I was disappointed.
Not too sure about the prices since I didn't pay but I have a feeling they are probably not too outrageous.Listed in: Buffets/ AYCE!!!

Everything tastes really good, but there's no escaping the hotness of the food unless you choose the buffet and take ice cream breaks between plates.
Also the buffet selection is a little bit limited. But when you get bored of that you can order different things off the menu instead. -

Stopped short of saying "I'm a fan" coz of service. Unlike my other reviews of Indian restaurants where I mentioned they are great on appetizers but not on main course this one reverses the tide. Appetizers are ok but food is superb!. The Veg biryani reminded me of a popular restaurant back in India that had amazing biryani. We went in a group of 17 people so the above rating is actually a survey :)
Bad part, or not so good part, I agree we didnt give much notice for reservation for such a large group but the servers kept us hanging and telling us 10 minutes more at least 3-4 times and didn't care to at least start taking orders or update us. Then few misses while serving first cold biryanis, then missing Idlis, forgot to refill water or check more frequently if something is needed, hasting us out of door (agreed, it was closed but if you see group that's willing to come again you go extra mile err..kilometer). -
