Celebrating Songkran - the Thai New Year
Well, I went here today (Apr 15 '08) and on account of the Thai New Year (Songkran), Benjarong had a completely different menu. I always perceived Thai veg food to be bland and unexciting but my experience at Benjarong was quite to the contrary. The food was great - starting with the Thai-styled paan appetizers, to the veg clear soup (which had an excellent flavour to it), to the stir fried vegetables, to the noodles and rice and the lemongrass tea. The oriental ambience is great. We were greeted with a sprinkle of petals and water at the gate. Highly recommended.

Thai Naadu food
Have eaten here a couple of times. The decor, the ambience is all great.
The service has always been slow. I wonder what the deal with "expensive" places and slow service. Slow service doesnt necessarily mean great food and good service.
The food is ok. Better than ... (well there is no other thai alternative in Chennai). But i have eaten in several Thai places in the US and the food here doesnt compare. not even close. So maybe it is tweaked to the local taste !! Wonder why, because in the US we ventured to Thai restaurants, because it was the closest to Indian food !!!!
Try it. You wont be disappointed, if you have eaten Thai food before. But if you have, you will be sure to compare.

It IS simply WOW!
This place is just awesome in every way. Its probably the best restaurant i been to in chennai. First of all it has a different cuisine Thai which is not so familiar to Chennaites. The ambiance is great and the service is just so wonderful you feel like a queen! As for the food, its so yummy you can never get enough. The pan kinda thing they give in the beginning complimentary is awesome I loved it. The pineapple fried rice is sweet but it is a must try here. The noodles i had ws a thick flat one and wasnt too impressive. WIsh I had space for some desserts cos they relaly sounded yumm on the menu card but then i was to greedy bout the food and had no choice but let go of the desserts. Anyways if any of you do taste em .. let me know.. cant wait to go bak here another time

Good Food, Great Ambience
Try the soft shelled crabs. They are just amazing. I've always found that though I like crabs, getting the meat out of the shell really puts me off it. But Benjarong serves soft shelled crabs which is just awesome.
The food comes in generous portions and we really had to make an effort not to let any of that yum food go to waste.
Try the tamarind chicken & the soft shelled crabs.
To tell you the truth I liked all their stuff... but unfortunately don't remember any of the names!
The waiters are helpful and offer good suggestions... Try this place out if you are in the mood for a quiet relaxing lunch/dinner.
