The food was really good. I love that there are veggies in the tikka and the chicken portions are big! The sauce is a little more sweet than spicy, which is nice and different than I've tried before. The naan is huge! Definitely sharable, and despite what other reviews said, the rice portion that comes with the tikka is fine without buying extra. At least for me.

I ordered the Chennai Special Chicken Biryani. The spice level was great, and the portion size was satisfying for someone like me who has a good appetite and works out regularly. However, the biryani was a bit dry, and it could’ve included more chicken pieces. The rice was cooked perfectly. Please take care of the dryness next time.

Every other Thursday I buy myself the Butter Chicken, Samosa Chat and Garlic Naan from Chennai Express as a reward for getting through the week. I have also tried the Gobi 65, Palak Paneer and Chicken Tikka Masala. Each entree has been absolutely delicious. The portions are huge, they last me two days. The food is steaming hot, fresh, and perfectly spiced. I had a Uber Eats coupon and as they don't offer Chennai Express, I tried a different Indian spot. I soon realized how spoiled I've become. Their portions were small, the bread tasted frozen, and the spice was mild at best. I'll never stray away from you again Chennai Express!!!

The butter chicken is the best. The butter naan and garlic one are the best naan breads to order. All orther naan is ok, the cheese naan isn't so great. The Mango Lassi is ok, but too small of a drink, not worth the $. Better off with soda or water.
