AB's - Absolute Barbecues | Adyar, Chennai

We visited Absolute Barbeque in Adyar for a Sunday lunch.
Amman Mess restaurant was extremely crowded, with a waiting queue of 2 hours. We decided to try Absolute Barbeque instead, where we were able to secure a table within 20 minutes of waiting. The desk manager was helpful in accommodating our group of 5 initially in a small space, but later he arranged another table upon our request.
Biriyani was average.

However, the service at the restaurant was poor due to the rush and limited resources. The staff seemed overwhelmed and struggled to manage the large crowd, especially during a busy Sunday lunch. Some customers were not patient, which added to the chaos.

We sampled a few starters and had a small portion of the main course. We shared our genuine concerns about the long waiting time and the quality of the food. In response, the manager offered a discount on the welcome drinks. It seems that offering discounts or replacing unsatisfactory items is a common approach among restaurants when faced with feedback.

I believe it is important for the management to take customer feedback seriously and make efforts to improve. The issues with service and crowd management need to be addressed to ensure a better dining experience for customers.

If you had a similar experience at Absolute Barbeque in Adyar, please give this review a like. By doing so, we can draw the attention of the management and highlight the need for improvements in areas such as service and crowd management.

Overall service was good.
Food variety is very limited for the price they charge.
Starters taste needs to be improved.

Limited variety for huge cost. Better to pick Barbeque Nation or any other.

Booked for a Tuesday normal cost but they billed higher rate saying it's republic day and special price. To the surprise no special menus not even any welcome drink. Finally they checked call recording of the booking and discounted to regular price.

Starters - Prawn was very average on that day. Chicken is good. Mutton and fish are ok.
Main course - Limited items but good.
