I don't normally write reviews, but I do check them all the time so felt compelled to share. We had dinner here during the week. The food was amazing - so flavorful and delicious! I have tried several Indian restaurants in Hicksville and this is one of the best. The place is a bit small, but the staff is really attentive and nice. The prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend you try this place!

The shrimp fried rice was very good. The veggie was also nice. Spices was very good. I also love the cauliflower dish and the crab was so nice. The server was very friendly and helped our very demand. Will definitely come again.

What an amazing find! Don’t be fooled by the humble establishment. They make the best South Indian food I’ve had - authentic flavors, fresh ingredients and no cutting corners on taste. I would recommend this place 100%. We had the chicken with rice lunch special - it was well priced and came with spicy rasam, pickle and dessert. The chicken was freshly made and tasted phenomenal! I felt like I was eating home cooked food in South India. Cheers to the owners for keeping things authentic and serving fresh!

We come to Taste of Chennai at least once a week. The food is excellent and love their service very much. It is truly authentic South Indian food, palatable to any taste buds. We have catered form then several times and they have always exceeded our expectations. Love their hospitality and genuine love to serve all.

Food was very delicious, I would definitely come here to dine.

Must visit place..I definitely recommend it they are customer friendly and we visit often.. affordable cost..I feel exact taste of south Indian food and I very much love this place?

We had been here all the way from Brooklyn and so glad we found this gem. We ordered the Raju gari chicken appetizer. It was absolutely delicious and unique. The flavor was terrific. We also got medu wada sambar and special Hyderabadi dum chicken biryani. The wada sambar was good but the show stopper was the biryani. So flavorful and perfectly cooked, spicy, served with Raita and salan. We finished off with Badam Halwa which was soft, made with Desi ghee and almonds. The owners are very warm and friendly. Will definitely be back. Please visit if you want to have delicious Indian food with sumptuous quantity and reasonable price.

It is by far the freshest , nicest Indian restaurant in Long Island. The freshness in their ingredients is something you can tell immediately!!! They have been around for a year and a little more and they have been consistent. Their Dosas are unmatched , their Non veg selection from Mughlai to South Indian is outstanding!! I come here once a week and it never disappoints. So happy that this place cares about the quality of the food so much!

Every time I visit LI, we never miss to order from here. Their food makes me nostalgic equivalent to local food back home. Owners care about their customers and never missed a warm welcome so far. Highly recommended.

I travel from Brooklyn to Hicksville for this amazing food. Makes me feel like home. Every dish is delicious. You must try Hyderabadi mutton Biryani, chilli garlic shrimp and tandoori fish . The food is fresh and quality is the best . I have been to almost 20 Indian restaurants in Long Island but this is the best !
