The Angara Grill House

The ambience is awesome. Well light and smells good. The smoky bbq(coal) smell isn't there since they have an power exhaust near each table. Quick service and the staff were efficient. Loved the variety.

This is one of several restaurants that have opened in the last year or so along Spur Tank Road. Almost all of them serve North Indian cuisine, which makes it fairly unusual for Chennai

The place was crowded with lots of people waiting in rows of chairs on the ground floor. We had originally planned to go to Patiala House on the ground floor but it looks like Angara Grill House is related or run by the same management.

So a Punjabi Dhaba with stuffed sofas, fairly confused decor with wood paneling in certain places and lights that sparkled right across. A huge painting of a rural Punjabi couple dominated one wall. On the other was a massive GOOD FOOD sign. The 'O's were all bicycle tyres and the other letters were made of plastic. Like I said earlier, this was probably designed by a family committee.

Since there were just the two of us, we thought we'd get a table faster. And we did. Except that it was a six seater!

And all the other tables had large groups of 8-10 people. Whole families with kids. The noise level in the restaurant is high. And thumping loud Western music blares.

The menu was a folded poster with standard North Indian offerings. We ordered Dhaba Paneer, Pudina Paratha and a mixed raita.

The food was served quickly and meets expectations. Rather than focus on presentation, it was served in copper bowls with long handles.

Kitschy design dominates including the serving of the saunf at the end. And a pehredaar at the entrance.

As long as you want a decent choice of well made North India food and like the busy vibe, it's worth the money.

All the waiters wear black T-shirts with I ❤ AGH prominently stamped on them. Another touch picked up from some remote design influence.

The stretch gets crowded during dinner time, so the valets have their hands full. And it does get chaotic, especially when you're retrieving your vehicle
