Chennai is a city that offers tons of eating-out options to vegetarians looking for a good south Indian thali (or meals, as they are known to locals) or an idli-dosa meal. But when it comes to casual dining or fine dining, if you think there aren't many vegetarian-only places to eat, you'd be wrong. Read on for our list of vegetarian restaurants in Chennai.

 

1.Dario's

A restaurant with both indoor and outdoor sections, Dario's provides a pretty setting for its delicious veg-only Italian delicacies. Trust us, even non-vegetarians will love the food at Dario's.

Cuisine: Italian

Cost for two: Rs 1200

Location: Poes Garden

 

2.Tasteation

This place is relatively new to the city, and has quirky decor to make your casual dining experience even more fun. An old house converted into a cafe-style restaurant, Tasteation has the potential to become a Chennai vegetarian mainstay.

Cusine: North Indian, Mexican, Mediterranean

Cost for two: Rs 600

Location: Kilpauk

 

3.Eden

An old Chennai favourite, Eden is a great place to enjoy a continental meal (though they do have other cuisines too) that's all-vegetarian. It mostly sees a family crowd and makes for a pleasant lunch or dinner out at either of its outlets.

PS. You have to try their corn on toast!

Cuisine: Continental, North Indian, South Indian, Italian

Cost for two: Rs 750

Location: Besant Nagar; Nungambakkam

 

4.Pind

With dhaba-like decor and a suitably rustic (pind means village) look, Pind is Velachery's favourite for north Indian and Punjabi food.

Cuisine: Punjabi, North Indian

Cost for two: Rs 800

Location: Velachery

 

5.Amdavadi

Non-Chennaiites may be surprised to learn that the city has a pretty sizeable Gujarati population, so it's a little surprising that it took this long for an eatery serving Gujarati snacks and food to pop up. Amdavadi positions itself as a  snacks (not to be confused with snakes) place, and their offerings are yum, to say the least.

Cuisine: Gujarati

Cost for two: Rs 600 

Location: T. Nagar

 

6.Mahamudra

Part of the Isha Life Wellness Centre, where you'll find a yoga studio, spa and restaurants, Mahamudra serves vegetarian south Indian food all day long. With an art and crafts boutique and seating in multiple spaces, Mahamudra is a place that makes health food enjoyable.

Cuisine: South Indian

Cost for two: Rs 700

Location: Mylapore

 

7.Annalakshmi

Annalakshmi is a restaurant that might be targeted towards foreign tourists, but that doesn't mean Chennaiites and visitors from other Indian cities won't enjoy it. They have a buffet with all kinds of south Indian delicacies that have to be tasted to be believed, and that's why it's still extremely popular after so many years.

Cuisine: South Indian, North Indian

Cost for two: Rs 1000

Location: Egmore

 

8.Cream Centre

The Mumbai-based chain made its debut in Chennai quite a few years ago, and is still as popular and packed as ever. It's become rather pricey of late, but their chhole bhature and nachos are to die for, and if you've never been to a Cream Centre, you're missing something.

Cuisine: North Indian, Mexican, Italian

Cost for two: Rs 1600

Location: Nungambakkam, RA Puram, Anna Nagar, Vadapalani

 

9.Kaidi Kitchen

This jail-themed restaurant sure makes for an interesting dining experience, and doesn't lose focus on what's really important: the food. From Thai to Italian to Lebanese, they've got a range of cuisines, all of which you can enjoy while sitting in this unique prison setting.

Cuisine: Thai, Italian, Mexican, North Indian, Lebanese, Chinese

Cost for two: Rs 1500

Location: Mylapore

 

10.Jalpaan

Their impressive interiors and tasty north Indian dishes keep the city's vegetarian foodies coming back for more. It's known to be a rather loud place, so if that sort of thing can get to you, maybe going with a loud family of your own is the only way to survive it!

Cuisine: North Indian, Italian

Cost for two: Rs 900

Location: Nungambakkam, Adyar

 

11.Fusilli Reasons

A tiny joint serving pasta at amazingly low prices and soft drinks in little glass bottles, it's a no-brainer that Fusilli Reasons is popular among young people in the city. It can get really crowded, though, so try to go at odd hours or get there early on weekends.

Cuisine: Italian

Cost for two: Rs 300

Location: Kilpauk

 

12.Flower Drum

Flower Drum is one of those rare creatures – an all-vegetarian Chinese restaurant – that we're sure many vegetarians have yearned for. Serving good old Indian Chinese in a way that makes more particular vegetarians quite comfortable, Flower Drum has a band of loyal fans who are ready to launch into praising mode at a moment's notice.

Cuisine: Chinese

Cost for two: Rs 700 

Location: Egmore

 

13.Kailash Parbat

Another Mumbai-based chain, Kailash Parbat is one of those places you can visit for a meal, where you know you'll always be served the same old yummy food. Their street food and chat are fan favourites.

Cuisine: North Indian, Street Food

Cost for two: Rs 600

Location: Chetpet, Velachery, Vadapalani

 

14.Little Italy

Relatively new to the Chennai food scene, Delhi Highway serves, as you may have guessed, north Indian food and street food. It's nearly always crowded, which just goes to show how much the city's foodies love it.
