Eat outside if weather and space permits. A very good range of food from across different Indian regions as well as International fare at excellent prices.

I was meeting two of my ex-Colleagues after many years and chose this place to meet up and have a relaxed meal. We chose the Indian Thali for the three of us. Service and Food were very good.But we had to move to the foyer once the restaurant closed after our lunch, to continue our meeting.I might recommend that patrons... More

The crown,Very good location in the middle of the city at 20th floor of Residency Towers. The view of the city from open roof restaurant is awesome. Food is average in taste... Prices are as per the standard. Good place to spend an hour or 2 with friends/family to enjoy the place rather than for food.

Located on the 20th floor of the Residency Towers, this offers a terrific view of Chennai. But it ends there. The food is very average to below average. The Kabab platter we ordered was certainly way below mark especially the lamb and the prawn. The chicken was good. The Paneer starter we ordered too was found wanting. Be careful of... More

We had a senior diplomat visiting chennai and this place seemed ideal. It is quite and formal setting yet friendly. Food is good, choices are plenty. There were options for guests from different countries, which made ordering easy. Service is good. Price is slightly on the higher side. The food quality has not improved much. It could be better.

The Crown was, for the greater part of its existence, known for an amazing view and little else. I've been a regular since 2010 and I've noted how the naans were rubbery, the butter chicken ordinary, and on one occasion, the chili flakes even had several flies in them! Having said all that though, since August '12, I can't think... More

My favorite roof top, great view, great ambiance, good food and superb service as always.....and since I like my meetings to be quiet for great conversations....the abscence of the live band helped actually....listening to the wind is more welcome with conversations.....my guests loved the dinner.

I have been to this place a few times, with colleagues and friends. The experience has been mostly good. Good ambiance, well-priced drinks, attentive service, though the waiters are not necessarily knowledgeable about the menu. However, two negatives - the food is rather oily and heavy on spice and ubiquitous cockroaches. Pointing out numerous cockroaches grazing on the walls next... More
