Myself along with my parents visited Tiruvannamalai - Arunachaleswarar temple, got to have dinner & Eve Tea at this restaurant.
Evening we ordered coffee, Ice cream & Milk shake, the taste was good but was a bit costly. After having good dharshan at Arunachaleswara temple, dropped in to the same hotel for dinner. Ordered for Tandoori Roti & Kada Veg costed Rs.60, the taste was good. Best place for dining out for vegetatians

I haven't ever undergone any such BAD experience as I underwent at Auro Usha Restaurant more than a couple of times whenever I visited Tiruvannamalai. Even Highway Dhabas also follow some Standard and professional ethics. In the name of so called Chinese/Italian Cuisine the restaurant serves some thing disgusting, un-palatable & not upto the Customer's delight. The service is very casual, unprofessional and not customer friendly. I have observed that the Restaurant does not bother about all these issues as indicated above. I, recently re-visited this Restaurant for some Chines Cuisine in the Lunch in July'17 after about 3 years, thinking that they must have improved by now. It was giving a deserted look inside the dining hall and we were the only two diners there in the Restaurant. But to my shocking surprise it has further worsened. We had to abandon eating just after having one or two bites because of the distaste and the horrible serving. We did bring this issue to the notice of their available staff including a Lady (who is supposed to be the owner) but they did not pay any attention to our complaint and instead promptly served the bill to us. I felt insulted & cheated. I had to pay just for a discourtesy.

Fairly pricey for what it actually is, bit of a westernised trap in all honesty but it’s very much like that sort of vibe around the area it is in. Staff proceeded to clean entire restaurant whilst having customers inside which wasn’t ideal. Atmosphere and Seating was lacking and pretty uncomfortable also. Literally everyone sat in silence, it was like a doctors waiting room. They forgot a few items on our order a number of times also which was quite annoying. May have helped if they wrote stuff down. Food was fairly tasty but a little gimmicky. Chickpea burger was okay, wasn’t as advertised though with fries. Soul in a bowl was okay but very very salty. Houmous was bland and served with tortilla wraps which was disappointing. Lassi and juices could be bigger for price

Visited with family and chose this ecotel vegetarian resort. Thoroughly enjoyed this nicely maintained with friendly staff. Very surprised, in first place, to find a good resort in Thiruvannamalai. After checking in we further liked it and extended our stay in this peaceful town not so far from maddening crowd of cities. The rooms are big enough with good decor. A sit out or patio would have made the room even better. We had chosen the AP plan, but got bored with the fixed menu on offer on this. The food at the restaurant otherwise was good and prepared well. Highly recommend to visit this place. Will surely visit again during winter time when this place should be even better.

The restaurant looks very cool.
Nice setting, eclectic decor.
The food is ok, but they are usually very busy and they are a bit unorganized.. our dishes came in bits and pieces and we had to wait for close to 1 hour.
Although the place is nice, we did not bother going back; there are other nice restaurants in the same area, near Ramana Ashram.

Tasty is a tiny home run cafe with a small menu but a fabulous one. The pizza was delish the pasta a pure delight.....the place has takeaway baked stuff that makes an ideal snack while climbing Mt Arunachala. The owner a sweet friendly lady named Arul who cooks with so much love ...u can actually taste it.
The fresh juice and churned lassi are my personal favourites.

Was in Mahindra City for a meeting and went to Wangs Kitchen for lunch at the recommendation of colleagues. Ordered mixed fried rice, chicken noodles, chicken manchurian and chicken drumsticks.
The food was pretty average. Looked good with decent servings but lacked flavour. It was neither Chinese nor Indian Chinese. Surely not visiting again.
The waiter had a real tough time to understand English or Hindi.
