The Dining Room

At the Park Hyatt, on a Monday evening, the buffet was fairly well populated - by patrons, not just the offerings

The concept of a live counter has now become a permanent feature. And the chef was taking a slightly apprehensive lady through the intricacies of a 'Kothu paratha' - where a layered paratha undergoes a spicy transition after it has been hacked to bits and mashed up with spices and other vegetables.

We asked for one and it came as a good contrast to the salad options that we first opted for.

As one grows older, the way to enjoy a buffet is not to pile up the plate but choose strategically what one should not miss.

Try the unusual dishes but steer clear of anything that looks overwhelming

In the salad section, apart from the regular olives and dill, there were little pearls of silver onions - tart and strong. The perfect complement to pita bread and hummus and creamed broccoli 🥦

Khow Suey, the flavorful Burmese soup with the garnishes you choose seems to be the current hot item. We've seen it served at everything from a wedding to a new year party and now here

Continuing from the theme of choosing small portions, spreading out the visits to the table and dipping into a combination of tastes is one of the best ways to maximise value.

Murungakkai - the drumstick coated with masalas was perfect. Use fingers to pry it open and then strip the insides sliding them through clenched teeth. Not a job the fork or spoon can accomplish.

I was told that the chicken curry and the chicken plus fish starters were good - but not for me, the vegetarian.

Ultimately in Chennai, the true test of the buffet is how good the curd rice is - and this one cold and tempered with mustard and urad dal delivered the rousing but restful finale

And before we leave, the dessert. Apart from the pastries one interesting combination was the moong dal halva strudel - baked but Indian at its core

We've learned to take our time, not hurry for a second round, take in the flavours and soak in the atmosphere. Service was unobtrusive, polite and helpful.

It's not the kind of thing you can have every evening but when the occasion presents itself, you have to do that delicate dance of indulging in moderation

The food is great. I ordered cholicken curry with rice and it was awesome. However, be prepared for thee food to be spicy.

This beautiful restaurant at the Park Hyatt is one of my favourite places to go, simply because their service and food is so so good. I've never had issues with their food and they are always open to customising it as per your dietary preferences. The lunch buffet is absolute VFM and everything on the buffet is so good. Their a la carte options are good too. Will definitely recommend this place for any occasion.

The morning buffet was scrumptious! There was a very good spread of Indian, Asian and continental with several items freshly made to order. There aren’t as many live counters as other comparable hotels but wouldn’t call this a smaller spread as in other reviews. You just have to ask for some of the dishes! Loved everything we tried. The staff were very warm and hospitable, and went out of their way to entertain our toddler. Will visit again for sure!

Staffs are really professional and friendly service. They provide 5 stars services.

Just amazing 5 star experience with 5star quality food

The Dining Room is a warm, comfortable and easy going restaurant that is always packed during meal times. They have a popular buffet and serve a la carte as well. The food is freshly prepared and the desserts look as good as they taste!

We were here for 2 days. Service of staff is super good. We had mind blowing food at the dinning room, we ordered all carte, dalmakhni with truffle oil was damn good we had it twice during our stay. Pari & Chef Akshay we’re very Co-ordinal and ensured we enjoyed our meals.

Such service makes holidays memorable.

Very nice staff.

I remember going here at midnight at 3AM back in 2018 with no expectations after a bad day. To my surprise lesser did i know that i was about to eat the best dosa I've ever had in my entire life. I still reminisce and cherish the memory of that day . Also the advantages of this place isn't just confined to it's food, the whole ambience and the architecture is something which would make you go in awe and trust me I'm not exaggerating .It's expensive but definitely worth the money and the time. Can't wait to visit again.

I ate at the buffet for all the week nights I stayed here. Wait staff and hospitality staff both provide excellent service. Shoutout to Shrishti and Branchard who always made sure I had everything I needed while I dined with them. The buffet has a good spread of both Indian and south Asian food. Breakfast spread is pretty good too with made to order options as well along with the buffet. I was a little bummed I didn’t have the chance to try their outdoor seating during my stay here.

Very nice dining experience good service

In room dining is not simply restaurant. It is a forte to cater to the needs of your moods. Very true, Chef Balaji and his team who will make cuisines of your choice that will dance in your palette.. creative dynamic place which will not disappoint you. Ask some of the special cuisines to suit your health though it may not be in the menu.

Wide spread buffet in the morning.. afternoon and evening will entice you and if you are little weak- minded guy then you are bound to add more calories to your dispersionate body.. Of course jump into swimming pool sauna, steam or your health club to burn the extra.

You cn try Bisibelabath, spicy chicken stuffed Croissant,Brocoli Katti rolls are  exclusive temptation  and you have to speak to the chef to make it to your taste.

Chef Balaji will arm you with  healthy foods made of millet.. whole wheat pasta.. broccoli based salads will enrich your dining experience
