If you are looking for a late night dine-in spot in anna nagar, then you should definitely visit the Mama shop. We tried their signature recipes and I totally fell in love with them. We tried the following items from their menu:
Chicken fried rice
Chicken maggi goreng
Chicken 555
Szh chicken fried rice
Rose milk
I loved everything we tried except the rose milk which could have been better. I can’t wait to visit this place again. Thanks for your great service and experience.

This standalone restaurant is located off a side street on 1st Street, Shanthi Colony, Anna Nagar. You can find enough parking space adjacent to the restaurant. It is located on the 1st floor. We arrived at 7 PM and to our dismay were informed that they open quite late and stay open till 3 A.M which is a big help for people with late hunger pangs.

The seating is on High stools and the table height is commiserate with the height of the stools. It has an open kitchen and you can see your food being prepared while you wait. You have to place your order first at the cash counter and as and when your food is ready they deliver to your table.

We wanted to order some seafood items but sadly they were unavailable that night and we had to satisfy ourselves with chicken and egg dishes. They have a 1 page menu and ordered Chicken 555 which is boneless strips of chicken sauteed with curry leaves and quite spicy, Reshmi Chicken Kabab which was again boneless pieces of chicken coated with a egg white topping and grilled on coals. The chicken was quite dry and the flavour had not permeated the meat and was tasteless as was the egg white covering. The Spanish Omelette was the star of the evening with pieces of omelette stir fried with bell peppers and onions. Falaffel Shawarma was OK. The Szhezwan chicken fried rice was good in a typical way. We also tried the Veg Maggi Goreng which was a bit spicy with addition of Malaysian spices. The chicken club sandwich had a fried egg with chicken and Mayo was pretty good and I washed the food down with Rose Milk which was served in glass bottles.

They serve the food on wicker baskets with wooden disposable cutlery which is eco friendly and if you are a fan of communal eating this is the place to be because they don't give you plates.

Went here just to try their chicken maggi goreng and chicken 555 which had good reviews on google and zomato. It's definitely a must try there. I've never tasted something like that before. The have good lightings and posters on walls which portray some of the iconic spots and dialogs of chennai. You can sit on a small balcony too it you dont like it inside. The opening is given as 7pm in the evening but when I went there around around 7.30, they were still cleaning the place and I only got my order after 8. I kindly request you make everything ready before 7 so that you can serve the customers quickly. Also, I felt the quantity was little less for the amount that I paid.
