Matsya - Muscat

Roasted pumpkin soup Pull apart garlic bread Chicago style cheesey fries Surkh lal paneer tikka Dahi ke DooleyApple mint mojito Paneer lababdarChocolate brownie with Ice-creamBrownie sundae The soup had a strong flavour it had a supremely creamy texture and is highly recommended. The pull apart bread could use a little bit more work but the cheesey fries is a good starter. Dahi ki Dooley had an oily bread top but the dahi filling was out of the world. The paneer tikka was another great dish it was soft and succulent. Paneer lababdar was a little bit of a let down for me for I was hoping for a more richer flavour. The mojito was good drink and went well along with most the paneer and dahi ku sooley. The desserts were good.

We 8 had alacarte lunch items which we enjoyed except one item curd rice not worth even a rupee. Service was good.

From 4ft Rocket Dosa, Karnataka's famous Kadubu Idli and BisiBelaBath, Mexican Enchiladas, Chinese Lotus stem starters and finishing off with a delicious rose milk, we truly had a multi cultural dinner in the third branch of @mathsyarestaurant in Adyar (others being in Egmore and T. Nagar).Priced at 400 their speciality 4ft Dosa could easily serve 5-6 ppl with large portions.Their taste and quality is exactly the same as their other branches and would definitely recommend going for a family outing

Mathsya is a popular restaurant in Chennai for South Indian, particularly Udupi style food. I had visited their Pondy Bazaar outlet multiple times. Now they have two more branches. Got to visit their Adyar outlet recently and this is the review.<br/ <br/ Mathsya is a pure vegetarian restaurant, serving South Indian, North Indian dishes, as well as a few Chinese and Mexican items. But I decided to stay focused on the Udupi items they have on offer. <br/ <br/ We were given a welcome drink rose milk. Ordered Guliyappa (aka Paniyaram in tamil) a dish where batter used to make dosa/idli is baked in the shape of small balls on a specialized tawa. Infused with some vegetables for added taste and served with chutney, sambar, the first item gave good start to the evening. Friends ordered some starters lotus stem and fried corn. These were good, but I liked crispy corn served at Coal Barbeque and few other restaurants a bit better.<br/ <br/ Neer dose is another coastal Karnataka special dish you should try. It is a thin layer of dosa served with coconut flakes and jiggery. Serving this in sets of 2 would have been better in my opinion.<br/ <br/ Next ordered a plate of Kadubu. Kadubu is coastal Karnataka dish where idle batter is cooked in a cup made of jackfruit leaves. I was expecting the same, full sized Kadubu in jackfruit leaves. But we were served smaller sized ones no difference in taste but missed the aroma of jackfruit leaves. Upon checking with management later we were told about the operational challenges non availability of jackfruit leaves and time it takes to cook during busy evenings.<br/ <br/ While we waited for Rocket Masala Dosa, a four foot long Masala dosa, next order of Bisibee bath arrived. Taste was authentic. I had buttermilk for company while I savored on the bisibele bath (sambar rice). Rocket Masala dosa now arrived, drawing attention of everyone around, thanks to its long size. Masala is not stuffed inside like a conventional masala dosa but is supplied separately in bowls.<br/ <br/ Wanted to try Mangalore Bonda and Thatte idli but didn’t have any space left. The items are reasonably priced. One Udupi item I felt missing in the menu was Patrode. <br/ <br/ Overall Mathsya Adyar is a great vegetarian outlet in Adyar area to visit with family, for authentic south Indian food. They also have great collection of North Indian, Chinese dishes. There will be fair bit of waiting on weekends.

Today, I along with my friends Karthik Murali Shrinidhi Hande visited Mathsya Restaurant, Adyar for dinner.<br/ <br/ This is a pure veg restaurant. Being a pure veg myself(only in Saturday), I couldn’t have asked for a better restaurant. This brand hails from Udupi, Karnataka and is known for their delicacies like bisi belle bath, neer dosa, kadubu Guliappa to name a few.<br/ <br/ We started with a welcome drink rose milk. Post that we moved on to Tomato soup. My friends felt it was too sweet. For me, it was ok.<br/ <br/ Then we ordered a dish made of corn. It was crispy and spicy. Liked the taste very much. Then it was Lotus Stem soaked in Chilli Lemon. It tasted unique. <br/ <br/ Then we ordered Neer Dosa. You shouldn’t miss it if you’re looking for Udupi delicacies apart from bisibeke bath, guliappa kadubu. Kadubu is usually served in jack fruit leaf but since the leaf is a rarity and it takes time to prepare, we got it in a normal way. So, don’t be disappointed, if you were expecting that style. The taste is intact.<br/ <br/ The highlight was the rocket Dosa. It is a 4 feet Dosa which could easily satisfy the hunger of 4 people. It comes with lot of coconut mint Chutney, Sambar, potato masala.<br/ <br/ We ended our dinner with a sweet lime juice. Shrinidhi alone ordered butter milk.<br/ <br/ Highly recommended. Be early because it is jam packed. You may have to wait in the queue before you get your turn but it is worth your time and money.
