Karai Restaurant - Puducherry

Chettinadu good.Very piquant.Great stage for family lunch sans liquor.I mean every beer.Gr8 space for the kids move about.Third best chettinad next only to Kaamatchi & Hotel Karaikal,opposite Pothis.

Been to rooftop of this restaurant.! Which has both open sky and ac sections.. Ambience is good in both but it's bad choice to sit in open sky section during summer..! To start with food if you are coming to this place please avoid soups.! I would say they serve warm water in place of soups with a piece or two of chicken/mutton.. And coming to starters golden fried prawn and chilli pepper prawns are very nice.. Chilli mutton is my favourite. And once again try to avoid lemon chicken.! In main course we had naans and chicken chitnad and I would say they go pretty well together.! Juices are just okay! And deserts are going to give you the worst ending you can ever have and don't have faluda here if you like it.! Overall this place can be avoided unless if you are planning to have only naans and chitnad curry.!

As a resident of Pondicherry and for casual South Indian dining we don't have many options here. As I have visited this place n number of times and on different occasions they do have good food there ,the pricing is OK . But what they lack is the service in rush hour and information ( after waiting for 45 mins on a Sunday for dinner around 9 and then they say they only have parota and naan ....This really **** everyone off ) . Food : 3.5/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Pricing :OK Service :3/5

We went Puducherry for Scuba Diving and stayed here. The stay was very pleasant. We had complementary breakfast which was very nice. They had unlimited vada, idli, upma, juice and tea with sambar and chutney. For lunch and dinner we visited their open air restaurant. The mutton and egg cirru were very nice. Though the ambience was not that great it was spacious. The veg curry and dal tadka were also very nice. Must visit.

It's an average chettinadu hotel which we can see in many places .. good service and average food .. liked prawn thokku , fish fry and fish gravy .. mutton kola urundai was not crispy and lacked flavor .. mutton briyani had lots of spices which was an irritant ... better try their meals and sea food sides ...
