Benjarong has been serving Tasty Thai Food in Chennai for quite some time... Me and a friend decided to do am impromptu Lunch Meet and this was our favoured Choice...Benjarong has been one of my preferred restaurant for Thai Food... We settled down and ordered Tom Kha Soup, Red Curry Chicken with Jasmine Rice and Thai Basil Fried Rice... We also ordered a couple of Drinks..We were served the welcome platter which as usual was tasty and the sauce is to die for... The TomKha Soup was excellent with the lemon grass cutting through the coconut milk and the chilli oil giving it a nice punch... One of the best soups in town...Then came the Main Course... The Red Curry Chicken with the Bamboo shoots brought back some great memories from Thailand... The Curry was an absolute delight... The Jasmine Rice was underwhelming and it felt that it was overcooked and a little mush...The Thai Basil Fried Rice had all the right notes... It was laced with fresh basil and the crunchy veggies added an extra crunch to it... It went really well with the curry and the chillies brought a nice heat to the mix...The 2 mocktails were good... I was so excited to try their fried Bannana dessert alas sadly it wasnt available... We were already full with the scrumptious Lunch so we decided to not have the Dessert...With Covid and lockdown wiping out many businesses... Im glad that some of them are still maintaining the place with the same taste and quality as before... This place leaves a bigger dent in your wallet but the food will leave you wanting for more...I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to try out Thai Food... They have an array of dishes to cater every ones needs...My Rating - 8/10.... A Must Try Thai Place in Chennai...

An absolutely wholesome experience for thai food lovers and explorers. Must try if youre fond of Thai food and it definitely lights up the palate

Benjarong - Best place in chennai to have authentic thai food. There are only few places which you can trust to have great thai cuisine. This is the best !! Starting from tom yum soup to pad thai and finishing with fried icecream. The food quality was top notch. I would recommended this as must try place in chennai. The dishes are quite expensive but worth the penny.

Place was neat & authentic, but many guests did not enjoy the food since they were first timers and bearers did not spend time in explaining the cuisine. Sea food platter came in parts, Tom yom chicken soup had too much mushrooms, spring roll had nothing but cabbage, shell crab too crispy. We liked the chicken rolled in leaf though it was not the leg piece as we guessed, red curry was good. Too expensive for the portion size.

Tried few signature dishes and liked it.

Lovely ambience, good customer service, great food but a little overpriced.

Benjarong has an amazing thai food.It gives us a great experience for our taste buds.It is a very Hygenic place, safe and sound.Ambience is very nice.I definitely loved the food here.

Best thai restaurant... All must try the duck tandoori!...i was mouth watering... excellent restaurant!..

If you are in Chennai and want to try good authentic food then Benjarong is the place. Its an authentic thai food available and its tagged by ministry of thai as an authentic thai restaurant. I tried all vegetarian items and must say that they are delicious. Clear soup with glass noodles is epic along with mushroom buttons as an appetiser. In the main course thai rice noodles along with spicy stir fried vegetables is a must. Don’t forget to have pumpkin pudding with coconut ice cream.Aah i forgot to share you are welcomed with basil leaves and an assorted plate of ground nuts, chilli, coconut flakes, ginger, sweet chutney and u put a small quantity of all like a paan eating style and enjoy the food.Plz visit and enjoy the food to the fullest!!!

The food is always on point.You wont be disappointed.

Beautiful ambience and awesome service. The food is also quite good here. The lemon grass essence is there in almost every dish too. An overall authentic Thai experience with emphasis on a LOT of Lemon grass😅.Oh and before the meals arrive a Miang Kham (a large platter with a lot of toppings and some leaves are given). Slather some of the sweet sauce on the leaf and add all the toppings on the leaf and dump it right in your mouth! Adjust the ingredients in your second try and DONT miss out on it!!!

I love the plant and the aroma of Thai food inside the restaurant...food was delicious and recommended this place as the aroma welcomes you...

The best place to have Thai food. The dishes are very good. Even if you think its pricey its worth it. Its my favorite place.

Pretty expensive if you dont have coupons. Do your research before you order. Was a little crowded when I went. Enjoyed the place, ambience and its food.

Absolutely delicious food.If you like thai food, look no beyond.Well maintained,crisp interiors with oriental thai/Chinese music in the background.Friendly staff who help you choose the dishes and explain whats what. The small starter/ appetizer which is complimentary is delicious and so refreshing and helps you kill time without having to wait desperately for the food to arrive.Narrow choices but healthy and mouth watering desserts.Since its located on a busy road, parking could be difficult but they help you with it.Freaking expensive but give the quality of the food, still considerable.

Thai cuisine was good to have. But the bill has service charges of 10% included without consent of the customer. That sounded weird. Later we asked to waive off the service charge and gave him cash as tips.

Always a fabulous dining experience. Now they are part of an exclusive thai select set of restaurants around the world that certify the authenticity of thier dishes! Been going there for over a decade now and they never disappoint!

This was the first time I had vsisted a Thai restaurant . The menu was Greek and Roman to me , but the staff was cordial enough to explain the menu and aided in choosing the dishes . The taste was extraordinary. The atmosphere was pristine . On the whole if you want to experience authentic Thai taste, I would recommend this place

Being suggested from a FB friend , went to Benjarong , Alwarpet for my 5th anniversary. Even though set meal wasnt available during weekends , the chef Mr.Ramkumar was kind enough to provide us a veg set meal . It all started with a Thai starter kit with all peanuts ,chillies , sweet sauce , lemon etc which was pleasent. We were given a Tom yum soup which was spicy and tasty .Starters were cottage cheese tofu and baby corn fry coupled with papad which was yummy . We had three plates of it and tasted great . For the main course we had veg Thai noodles and green curry . The noodles was good and no negatives . The only dish which I dint like was the green Thai curry which was below average . I had tasted a better Thai curry even in an road side eatery .Then comes the yummiest part. Chestnut milk dessert was the tastiest thing I ever had . We had two cups of it . Overall except for green curry all other dishes tasted great . They could have added one more starters and main course to the menu but no negatives for it . We were charged 750 bucks per plate and thoroughly enjoyed the meal . Tks to my FB friend and cook Mr.Ramkumar who made our day .

A very authentic Thai restaurant..!! Great taste, portion, quality and quantity..!!We went on a weekday lunch and availed their set menu..!! This is the best value for money you can get here and gives you the option to explore in small quantities for a number of varieties..!!Great starters, good pace of service, fresh and hot food and amazing all the way to the dessert..!!

A really good place to have Asian food. Calm ambience, good service and tasty food.We ordered green Thai curry, Jasmine rice and grilled mushrooms. Everything tasted really good.You can skip the Thai iced tea though.

Food indeed had a distinct southeast asian flavor,not disappointing,yet very expiremental menu worth a try!The washroom area could be shaded from the dinner area!We were dinning and people were lined up for the Loo...dampens some taste!But food is good and great!

Go to place for thai food in the city for the past 20 years. Other places in the city are clones of this place. Must try dishes are pandan chicken, thapthim krop and Thai green curry.

Whats not to like? Its got amazing food options, and their service is super friendly. Definitely would recommend

As always, delicious food, prompt service. There was a miscommunication with our order of red curry, but its one of the places, where the quality of food & taste is consistently good.

Authentic Thai food. The prawn fritters are yum!

Great Thai food. Lovely ambience. Courteous staff. Good service. Value for money. Highly recommended.

The menu is truly thai .Their presentation is great ,quanity is decent ,Taste is sumptuous ,price is slightly high .But the only glitch I feel is that their ambience is not upto the mark and doesnt justify the price .Otherwise if you are an explorer ,this is one spot you shouldnt miss.

Lovely decor, wonderful array of authentic Thai dishes and friendly staff! I would definitely recommend you to give their todays special menu a try. Also the hot banana fritters with cold icecream is an amazing dessert.

Very good food and ambience but pricey though. Once we can enjoy the experience 🙂

Amazing place. Been visiting it for years and the quality has always stayed amazing. Easily one of the best places in Chennai for Thai food without a doubt. Great hospitality and quick service as well as reasonably priced for the quality they provide.

I don’t prefer Thai food usually but Benjarong just changed that thought for me. Amaaazingggly tasty authentic Thai food. Very very courteous staff. Ambience is good. There are lot of options for vegetarians too. The appetiser topped my list of favourites. Can keep eating that unlimited.

The food was very good.Nice place to hang out.The variety of dishes were great with all the food delicious. The customer service was excellent.We had fried rice, Lotus stem, basa fish, squid, chicken and deserts made from coconut milk/ tender coconut. All were very good.The restaurant location is easily accessible. The parking though is on the road side, as the parking space what they have is limited. But the interior ambience is good. Adequately lot with perfect temperature. Rest rooms were ok.

First time the food was good, second time we ordered for crab, it wasnt upto the mark.

This restaurant is very good for it’s Thai cuisine. It typically imitates the Thai cuisine. The Tom Yam soup here is delicious. Pad Thai noodles is also good. You must definitely try this restaurant if you are interested in thai cuisine

Authentic Thai food! Expensive restaurant, but the ambience and delicacies make it a delightful experience!

Good taste quality and quantity also nice

Not too familiar with Thai cuisine. Strictly ok flavours. Not much car parking space is available but valets are there. Toilets could have been neater. Price a bit on the higher side.

One perfect authentic place to try Thai food in chennai. The ambience is good and warm. The price is on a higher end but worth the try. The welcome condiments include ginger, nuts , greens and green tea in kettle which is supposed to increase he metabolism and aids in smooth digestion. The quantity is enough for two person. A good place for a calm lunch or dinner with your near and dear ones. A sure treat for taste buds for those who want to try other cuisine

Really an awesome place. This is not the first time were visiting the restaurant. But first time during pandamic.All the staff are vvaccinated,wearing mask,they have a room ppurifier.Social distancing was followed between tables. Other than that,food was so yummy, thoroughly enjoyed. Staff polite and courteous.i would give a 5 star rating for BENJARONG 👍👍👍👍👍

Best ever Thai and Chinese food..order just anything and the uniqueness of food is guaranteed.

Excellent food. Very courteous staff members. Suitable for weekend dining. Washrooms can be better though reasonably clean.

Great food. Good service.

Fantastic Thai food....Very tasty and authentic. Decor is good and service was excellent. Highly recommended. But pricey...

OkOkOk

4.5 my rating the food was excellent but they lack in service

Superb Padthai and other Thai dishes

Very humble service associates and lovely authentic Thai food. The manager (I forgot his name, sorry!) is very friendly and helpful. Overall a great restaurant to spend time with family.

Im trying to book a table but no one has picked up the call and i directly go and book the table..

Tepaan is a great place for japanese

Best thai restaurant in chennai...Price is high though but worth it.

I would say Benjarong was the pioneer of Thai food in Chennai. I visited the restaurant for the second time and here’s what I had.DrinkVietnamese iced coffee—your cold coffee with a twist. The coffee is extremely cold. Almost three fourth of a tall glass filled with ice cubes. The coffee is extracted from corse ground roasted Vietnamese coffee bean mixed with boiling hot water, which is collected in a drip filter. The coffee is mixed with sweetened condensed milk and poured over the ice cubes. 😇 Chennai definitely needs this!SaladPla tod yum mamuang—crispy fish fillets served with tangy and sweet raw mango salad. The fish fillets are deep fried in oil and taste of the seafood, so you must eat this with the salad. Crispy fish and crunchy salad are a great combination.Yum hed hoo noo—black fungus (mushrooms) and bean curd served mixed with spicy chilli dressing, mint and kaffir lime leaves.Grill Platter with sriracha and peanut sauceTofu grilled with Chilli garlic paste—huge chunks of tofu marinated with chili garlic paste and grilled. When you marinate and grill a tofu the skin gets crispier and it still remains soft on the inside.Squid grilled with Red chilli paste—squid marinated with red chilli paste and grilled. The taste of the fresh seafood with the marination and the smokey flavour from the grilling, all these flavours are a perfect balance and complement each other!Chicken grilled with Green chilli paste—pieces of chicken are marinated with green chilli paste and lime and grilled to perfection.SteamPla nung tom yum—whole fish steamed with tom yum sauce. You bite into the freshness of the fish (literally melts in your mouth) and the freshness of the sauce (mostly chilli and lime).Main CourseGai Pahad Bai Horapa—boneless pieces of chicken and pokchoy stir fried with Thai red chillies and sweet basil sauce. This is am extremely simple dish traditionally made with oyster sauce, fish sauce, vegetable oil, fresh Thai basil, chopped red chillies, salt and Thai pepper powder!Mee gati—chicken in rice vermicelli noodles cooked with basil and red chillies. Vermicelli noodles aka rice noodles is something that can help us put a stop to maida! And the rice noodles soaks up all the flavours from the meat and sauce, making it extremely difficult to stop eating.Khao Pahad Rua Mitr Talay—mixed seafood cooked with vegetables, fresh basil leaves and sticky rice. The rice is fragrant in nature and this fragrance is enhanced when mixed with the other ingredients.DessertTub Tim Gorb—we ended our meal with the traditional dessert, water chestnuts rubies in sweetened coconut milk.

Good eating joint, authentic thai food, must visit

This place is like the rent that the Weasleys used in the movie Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. From the outside it jude looks like a familiar house but in the inside the place is so well decorated and spacious with such a fragrant lemon scent that welcomes you.The staff is really friendly and they provide you with a starter while you decide on your order. Dont feel ashamed to ask how to pronounce the name of the various dished or for that matter, how to consume them as they will teach you the bdst way to devour the dish.Also, they serve you with paper plastic and also, a common bathroom that is neat and tidy with a huge mirror. It will be comforting to know that you are in the presence of woke people.The food is exquisite from the starter to the cocktails but the price might seem a tad bit too high if you are a college student. Totally worth it though!Hope you have a great time there!😊🙏

Amazing Amazing Amazinggggggggg....try it out guys...also the Popeyes paan on spinach....Mian khum

Good ambience, kind manager, the staff clearly explained what is the menu its content and the best dish . Little costly though but worth the day spent

One of the best restaurants Ive ever been!The food was phenomenal! Loved the service and ambience!Thanks to dineout GIRF sale, was able to enjoy a lot of food with 50% off!Hope to visit again!

I have been frequenting this place for about 8 to 10 years for its food. The last when i went in jan 2021, the place looked worn out. Cockroaches on walls. The best part is that the crown in the showcase was totally broken and they had done a poor job of plastering it with tape. The service room which is frequently opened and closed had greasy switches. Food is still good but makes me now wonder about the kitchen hygiene and cleanliness .

Spotless care taken .. service is good but scope for improvement.. food is good however folks taking order need to be better explain the dishes to customers and provide recommendations

Benjarong, one of my favorite restaurants (for Thai cuisine) in Chennai has introduced Flavour of Vietnam - Vietnamese Food Festival from 10/Aug/18 till 25/Aug/18. Chef Ramkumar has brought Chef Nguyen Thi Nho from Vietnam to make it special in all aspects; be it taste, flavor, texture, presentation..Excellent. Started off with Vietnamese Iced coffee with milk, Passion fruit juice and Fresh jamun juice with lemon. The fresh jamun juice and iced coffee were so good, that we had to order for second round before closing the dinner:). The soups Pho Ga (Chicken noodle soup) and Pho Bo (Beef noodle soup)...outstanding..straight out of some Vietnamese pot. The appetizers were something to remember - Charcoal grilled shrimp mousse on sugar cane (wow!), Vietnamese fresh shrimp spring rolls, Five spiced Vietnamese grilled fish, Deep fried chicken spring rolls with mix herb were awesome and reminded me of my stay in Ho Chi Minh. The main course was Vietnamese Chicken Curry with coconut gravy, Whole hamour steamed with soybean sauce, Vietnamese fried rice with lotus seeds baked in lotus leaf...were so good.. The desserts Mung bean cake and baked banana served with vanilla ice cream, Handmade jelly tofu with ginger sweet gruel...hmmm.... The highlight is some of the key ingredients, were sytraight from Vietnam, to make it even more authentic and special. Totally a super outing to explore authentic Vietnamese food.

Delicious food and good service overall. Authentic thai food is served here with an abundant variety of dishes. The drinks were also fresh and tasty. It was slightly overpriced but still worth it! I would recommend Benjarong if you love thai cuisine.

Amazing food. Super good. Loved it

Amazing food and great ambience! Experience the finest Thai Cuisine at its best.

It was great experience, staff so professional, food taste was amazing and lovely decorated place fulfill with Indian culture 😍Had a great time with Kumar Asirvatham and Gasser riad ❤️

Thai Cusines at its best in the town.

Best place to try Thai food

Very good place. Good staff. Choice of wooden or steel spoon is there. One new innovative thing is that they have a QR code which you scan to open the menu. For people not aquainted with this they have regular menu too. Wonderful and flavorful food. Great staff.

Authentic Thai food, Excellent Hospitality....

Best Thai food! Great service!

One of the best Thai restaurants in Chennai... hood ambiance, authentic taste and good service... definitely must try...

Best Thai food outside of Thailand! Super expensive yet worth it..

Benjarong, one of my favorite restaurants in Chennai has introduced Sea Food Festival on 28th Jan till 14th Feb 2018. Unlike normal times, this season, first thing that will catch your attention is the array of sea food display at the lounge! You can pick your Fish, Crab, Lobsters a..n..d...you can select from a list of sauces and the kind of cooking you prefer:- steamed, fried or gravy! Wow..! Total delight:). What I like about that place is the authenticity in their cuisine. Like any food enthusiast, drooled over their menu and got to indulge in some of their best Hamour Steamed Fish, Mud Crab Coconut Gravy with steamed rice, Sole Fish crispy fried - from the festival menu. Could not resist their classic items like Tom Yum soup, Som tam Thai (yummy raw pappaya salad), Pandan leaf chicken, Pad Thai Noodles and closing note with Water Chestnut Dessert, not leaving the jasmine tea:). Special note of thanks to Chef Ramkumar for his effort!

Best experience. Loved the restaurant, the ambience, the services etc.... they have got a Japanese live grill on top as well... dunno if it is a separate restaurant or part of Benjarong. Loved the food. They have more or less managed to maintain the flavour of Thai cuisine

Great place to have authentic Thai food. Very prompt service. Follow @belllyfulll for more info

Good food and very good service too. Value for money.

Awesome Thai food. Great taste and excellent service. Been a customer for a long time. Highly recommended.

One of the oldest and best places for Thai food. Though I feel its slightly over priced

Worth very penny. Loved the whole experience. The crispy chilly beef is the soulstealer here. If you dont have the crispy chilly beef then your experience is not complete here.

Amazing Thai restaurant in Chennai. Have a lot of options for both veggies and Non-veg lovers. Good ambience and courteous staff. Definitely a mist visit place for Thai food lovers.

Very tasty food and good ambience.

Teppan is one of the Japanese cuisine restaurant which blends Japanese ingredients with Indian spicy style. Should try once in a lifetime

Well i am not sure whether something is wrong with my taste bud or the way most of the people are making thai green curries these days. It was just creamy coconut curry. All d well balancen flavours of lemongrass, galangal, thai chilli were missing.(refrnc to malaka spice in pune..the best) The tomyum was decent but not authetic.Lamb chops was nyc. Prawns chiili garlic was good.

The only place for authentic Thai food outside Thailand.Absolutely wonderful.Thank you Chef Prakash ,Altaf and team.Waiting to visit you guys.

Good place to go once a while. Food was yummy 😋...

Great ambiance, good food and excellent service

The best Thai restaurant that you can find in Chennai City offering delicious Thai food.

Nice to have a day outGood ambienceTasty foodExcellent hospitality

Very nice experience. Good food. Good team. Chicken and fish was best. Tom kha soup was not good. Chef suggested grilled lamb and that was excellent. great food with excellent service, extremely courteous without be intrusive or annoying. definitely recommended!

Yummy and delicious .... can explore if u like Thai foods .... sea food soup is good one

Serves excellent Thai food consistently. Superb service too.

Loved the experience!

As usual taste and standard is well maintained.

Always a good experience, but the Air-conditioning did not work properly when I visited last time. Staff are courteous 👍

I dont feel any Thai cuisine taste

Good food and service; need to add a bar and introduce better Covid safety measures

Poor service.. poor hygiene.. taste completely gone down
