Archana Sweets - Chennai (Madras)

Must visit place if you love your indian mithai and snacks! :

This one just got revamped into a full time restaurant come sweet shop. Food here is majorly north indian type. Quality of food is good but the rates are at the higher level. <br/ <br/ Our orders:<br/ <br/ <br/ Aloo Bonda/Masala Bonda: this is just Aloo masala with besan coating. Okayish. Lesser Aloo more Bonda would be better <br/ Rava Panneer masala dosa: just amazing. Raha dosa is crispy and Panneer masala tasted yumm!!<br/ Pineapple juice: asusual.<br/ Muskmelon shake: this comes with ice cream and tutty fruity toppings. Tastes yumm! <br/ Badam Katli: kesar and badam flavours are just perfect <br/ <br/ Food: 4/5<br/ Ambience:3/5 (could increase the AC temperature level. Felt I have been to an igloo for a sec <br/ Service: 4/5<br/ Vfm:3/5

Been here today after the a busy shopping in T Nagar .. Even though the restaurant is in the middle of the T Nagar , it is descently maintained.. We have ordered a coffee , a pomegranate juice nd one plate vada (2 vadas).. They have provided coffee nd vada in 5 to 10 minutes but juice came little late.. They have provided vada with mint chutney .. vada was too good , it was not oily at all.. as I don't like mint chutney , asked for coconut chutney.. It was Not available so they have provided a cup of hot sambar which is too tasty... Pomegranate juice was good nd tasty but less in quantity and over priced .. Total the bill was 150 which is bit overpriced ..

It was one my goods supplier refereed for the place as i am looking for best Gulabjamun as Myself belongs to the sweet place where i got the very best sweet tooth to eat from Childhood.<br/ Archana sweets as i am writing about have good collection of sweets including gulabjamun and Rasogulla.<br/  Nice place with very nice Gulabjamun that i have tasted and taken for my Boss as well in Chennai.

<br/ Have been to this store many times now and I love their samosa/bonda. With no trace of oil, they taste super heavenly and have a very unique filling of green peas and potato cooking in a tangy minty sauce. <br/ <br/ Their bondas too are super fluffy. The green chutney they serve is the perfect accompaniment to these. At 20/ per piece it is definitely a little on the higher side given the size of the Samosa. The bondas are still ok on pricing though. On the whole, it is somewhat justified due to the sheer location advantage. <br/ <br/ They also have an elaborate food menu. I have tasted the same at their store in Mount Road(Near Higginbothams). It is quite good as well. <br/ <br/ Their sweets are way too pricey though. Saw a small assorted sweet box. Should be 250g is my guess and it was priced at 175/ <br/ <br/ Good option for a quick snack whilst shopping.
