Such an amazing place to hang out with friends and colleagues, loved the overall ambience of the place. Looking forward to revisit this place.
Great food and a very good ambience
Have tried both the buffet and a la carte menu. One of the very few places where the quality of food is worth the buck. The buffet is quite sumptuous with plenty enough starters. The ambience of the place is a bit dark, might not be likeable for everyone but doesn't matter when the food is good. My only disappointment was with the very limited options for dessert.
Ambience 3/5
Food 5/5
Service 4/5
Value for money 4/5
This place had a soothing atmosphere with courteous staff. And their food especially the cream of mushroom soup and the Grilled prawns are just awesome.
Awesome environment for dinner. But unexpected spicy food than expected. Nice service too.
One of the best restaurant in Chennai for Buffett .This is first time for me ,my frend told me about this place,today I went there with my frnds..we order Buffett some of the frnds are vegtrn ,so we order veg and non veg Buffett..All item's they sub on table that is really cool for me.realy good,good test and good quantity..service is too good, The guys who tacker us his name is Vishal...decent gys (Vishal) .
I was totally tired with trying out all the BBQ based restaurants like ABs, BBQ Nation, Coal BBQs and wanted to try something different and thank God I found Cleo's.
I hate to say this but I enjoyed veggie dishes more than the non-veg ones(which were far better than the one's you find in BBQ restaurants) out there! And the items were pretty light(barring some 3 or 4 oily/overdone starters) as well unlike typical BBQ restaurants.
Just go out there and enjoy Cleo's feast!
Today I was with my frend place for a special lunch, food teste was really testy. they have Buffett also but we order allkart menu.we order Sweet corn and manchuw soup,which was too good, starter- Harisa grill prawns,crispey chicken chees tenders and Cleo's grill paneer..and the main course we'll order pasta ,and tandoori naan with veg khadhai veg. Which was so good quality as well as quantity.service was too quick and great. The person who serve us his name is Vishal, really helpfull guys .he help us to choose food on menu..we r thankful for him ,(Vishal) ... overall good experience

We had dinner buffet at this place and you will get stuffed just on starters so eat less and don't miss on desserts in case you want to taste it all. The price is decent for the variety they offer.
The only issue is they bring dishes at the table instead of us going for buffet and picking up the quantity as per choice so lot of food gets wasted. The ambience is little dark and gives feel of candle light so perfect for a dinner date.
Overall experience was wonderful. Great food specially the crispy chicken. All the dishes were looking colourful. This place is great for team lunches.
If you are bored of all BBQ's in the city and wanna try some best value for money Buffet ...close ur eyes and head straight to Cleo's . Order any buffet veg/non-veg u won't be disappointed .. Best option for mid range buffet
Cleo's.. A great place to dine in Adayar! The ambience, service and food all were excellent! Loved the place and enjoyed the food.
The service was excellent.. guiding through the menu to help us chose what we want to have! The food was presented good and taste was excellent!
Went to this place with a few friends the quality and quantity of the food provided is good.They have a good spread for the buffet which is VFM.A good experience overall.
This is one of the best place to have food. The ambience is shooting and very energetic.
Great customer service and the food was exceptional. Everyone was very coordinating and
friendly. Worth every penny spent on it.
Very nice buffet in the city. At a very decent price I got so many option to eat from starters to main course super delicious and super tasty. Very nice staff and good service.
Amazing places for yummi food. Ambiance is really good, service is awsome by bishal I have try steak is sups,. Starter are so good, we had chicken Manxhow soup, starter harisa prawns, chicken tenders And cleos grill chicken, grill chicken are Boneless, test is really fabulous... Must try this...
One of the best restaurant in cheeni. They have table buffet every thing serve on the table, they start with dip and chip and drinks, then after soup and starter, all starter are super. After that main course and desert.... They have steak also i will try next time,.... Service is very good, the gyes who serve us his name is bishal, very friendly guys....
A serviced unlimited Buffet. 3 of us booked in Zomato and reached there around 1 PM. Tasty Starters serviced one by one without asking about the item or quantity. It was serviced in a small table - so they couldn't place all the starters at once. Food Quality and taste was good. They are ready to take back left-over items happily saying they will use it some way. The dark ambience with table pendant lamps gives a lovely and romantic feel. Main course and 4-5 desserts tasted okayish. Only feedback was portion control and avoiding leftovers.
Nice cozy place. Food and ambience were good. Friendly waiters. Ordered a shrimp skewers. Guess it was overdone and It refused to come out of the skewers. They promptly replaced that with a different item. Overall been a good experience.
Limited variety for vegetarians, yet their dishes are truly damn tasty.
The cottage cheese starters are lovely. The main course dishes and curries have a unique flavour.
Very nice place .. they serve some amazing starter and steak dessert we ordered
1 Cleo’s grill chicken (4/5)
2 chicken skewers piquante and pesto .(4.5/5)
3 cajun grilled fish (5/5)
4 white sauce chicken pasta (4.5/5)
5 classic beef steak (5/5)
6 burnt garlic beef (5/5 )
7 gulabphirni (4.5/5 )

Great service by gabrail
Cleo's is one of the best cafes in Adayar, especially if you are looking out for some solitude and good food. The ambience is very pleasant and the staff are friendly. The soup,starters and steak were all delicious. More options for desserts can be provided. Dish to stay wary : Dabhewali Dal
Went there for a A la Carte dinner with a group of 8. Taste of food is between good to excellent. Almost everything we ordered were better than we thought. Chicken steak and seafood starters are things one should try here. Beverages were the only disappointment. We could only feel crushed ice rather than the actual flavor. Didn't try buffet since the menu for buffet was not exciting.
Nice restaurant with great ambience. There were lot of options and I experienced a great service in Chennai. I liked Cleo's Falooda very much.
Food was fabulous. I highly recommend this place. Being a pure vegetarian, have a lot of options to try out. Quality is outstanding. Timely service. Appreciate the efforts in maintaining such discipline and quality
Owner Mr.Imran takes care of every customer personally. Staff are friendly. Tried many dishes, extremely happy with the taste AND quality. I request cleos to open in other cities also. YOU can try all food options here and you Will not be disappointed
Great ambience. Delicious food. Easily the Best places for Great food in Chennai. Please choose this restaurant as it will fullfil your expectations!

Food is really good,we order fry rice is really good,service is really good,the gys who served us his name is Vishal ,.. nice places for hangout, they have buffet also it's table, this time we take alcart but next time I Will try buffet...
Been here for a buffet. The whole buffet was served at the table itself without having to get up. Although it took a while to adjust with the dark setting, the food was very delicious. Do visit this place for a heavy hearty meal.
Hello foodies & everyone.I'm not Chennai Person.I visited this restaurant last week for buffet.No words to say for their dishes.It really yummy.I never ever tasted such a dishes like that..Their strength is mainly on "STARTERS".Ohh my god,I don't know to express ma emotions on words.At,first they have given a soup.Too yummy.What a soup.Then,given starters .We ate all starters twice & finally,that lemon juice.We drank that juice 4times, its splendid.But,we can't feel satiable,that much taste.Only one thing they didn't satisfy us on their main dishes.They have look into that.
What the money you are paying is worth enough for starters itself.Atleast,visit once & then you 'll be a regular customer.
Damn sure..
Lovely ambiance tasty food. If you are a pasta lover this place is a must try. Biriyani is not any less it is definitely worth the try. Thank you Varun for helping us with the best❤️
We decided to give this place a try. And we are glad we did that. The food was excellent. Service by Mr. Samy was perfect. The music was a tad too loud for having conversations with our friends but on request they reduced the volume too
Had dinner in this place with my loved one for the first time, the food was great freshly cooked, very tasty and well presented, the waiters were attentive and service was good, the restaurant was well decorative and ambience so good, overall a good meal and a great value, we will certainly hang out another time.
This place is awesome , ambience is so good , spent a lot of time with my family , since my family is new to Chennai , they like this place bcoz of the service they provided .starters are so tasty and served pleasant, I always suggest the mutton based dishes.I assure u surely u gonna like this place , value for money too......nice work , keep doing.......
Hi everyone, i went with my team and service was very good and starters are very nice. We had a good time. Strongly suggest for u guys.. Go and enjoy
Food was awesome.. Prawns and fish were best ! Deserts were simply superb .Nice ambience. Served well by bishal. Main course was also good .
For all you vegetarians, this place is heaven.. I personally felt the vegetarian food was much better.. We had two cottage cheese dishes and they were amazing !! ❤️❤️ Please do visit this place if you haven't already !!
Wanted to give 4 stars only, because of the ambience - poor lighting, a bit cramped seats. But decided to give it all 5 stars.
Soup and starters are excellent. Some are a bit spicy, so you need to tell them upfront.
The main course items are very well balanced.
The desserts are absolute delights.
Service is very quick, and the staff are courteous.
Quality of the food and environment is good. Awesome Customer service. Had great time and great food with my family.I will recommend this restaurant to all my friends.
One big reason to choose this restaurant would be the wide spread of starters that they offer. I was surprised that vegetarians like me also had a lot of options. Something that I have not seen in any other restaurants till now. The service was brilliant as well. The biggest drawback would be the extremely poor lighting and the desserts. Except the chocolate mousse everything else was forgettable. Definitely a place worth checking out if you are a person who places a lot of emphasis on starters.
Amazing place and amazing food!
Perfect place for a dinner
Pleasant music with staff
Superb service provided especially by Mr.Varun Swamy!Kudos✌🏼
n starters Starters, we had Burnt Garlic mushroom, which was way too brilliant than I would have expected. The Harissa grilled vegetables was very nice and spicy. Equally good were the pesto chicken skewer and grilled chicken Jamaican sauce. The Spicy prawns tikka too is on my hot favourite list. Spicy AF and so tasty.
The honey chilly potatoes was nice too, just that I feel the is misleading.
One of the peaceful restaurant by its location. The restaurant staffs are failing to manage the crowd. It’s a very small place and if it is crowded the management is asking for bill instead of what you need. Food is really good here and the 4 Stars are only for food and zero for the staffs working there. Both Al carte and Buffet menus looks perfect and balancing. It’s budget friendly as well. Can suggest for the friends in group of 5 or 6 not more than that because they will find difficult to accommodate.
Great food, wonderful service. Great recommendations by our waiter Varun. He came up with the right suggestions and was extending patient and attentive. 😊
Good food, good portions and good taste. We had the Phuket Fish, Dragon Paneer and Egg Noodles. And rounded the meal off with brownies and ice cream. Very satisfying meal.
And reasonably good service too.
Amazing food and amazing hospitality by Samy and his team, the started with the starters which was amazing and mouth watering and mains was on the par with the starters. Over all an amazing experience.
We opted Ala carte and the ambience was great.
Right from soup to starters and the main course, everything was good.
*Cream of mushroom soup (chicken) was really yummy.
*Crispy chicken cheese tenders, chicken lollipop, Cleo's grilled paneer. All 3 tasted delicious.
*Three cheese pasta was definitely mouth watering.
* Hot fudge brownie with ice cream, was not upto my expectation. It tasted more like a cake than a brownie.
The price was decent. Along with the above listed we also had two more soups and the bill costed around 2.5k.
But overall it was a great experience and everyone must give it a try.
The service was awesome'..most of the food tasted good.. it's a great place to chill and relax. Mr.Varun served us and I have to say that he did a wonderful job.
Very tasty and appetizing food.customer behaviourial is expectional( Saamy).

Good food, good ambience and good service from Varun, Samy and team! The buffet menu was long and repeats were plenty! The dessert was on point too!
The place is nice with a sweet low light ambience. Food is good. Service was also very nice.r. varun and sami were also very cooperative. Loved overall.
Been wanting to visit this place for a really long time! Tried the chicken with lemon grass and the spicy steak, both of them were amazing! Excellent portion sizes!

Cleo’s has an excellent spread of buffet . It has a lot of variety to offer in veg .
In starters I liked the soup very much and the Paneer Tikka , Veg seekh kebab and the Cajun potatoes .
The chicken wings were also good
The main course was pretty decent.
The breads , the gravies and I loved their Biriyani 👌🏻
The minus one star is clearly for the desserts.
It was a complete let down . Even the Vannila ice cream was having a spoilt taste . No variety in desserts . They have some 2-3 mousse all of which don’t taste great .
The ambience was nice .
If you’re visiting on a crowded day you will have to wait longer .
But definitely worth the money if the desserts are improved.
It's an amazing place. Delicious food and cool ambience. Their dinner buffet is worth the money. Samy was our waiter for the day and he did a great job!
Superb.... buffet dishes at just 650 rupees only and Mr.varun served with peacfully and smiling face.
Cheap and best restaurants in Chennai adyar. Area.
What a nice experience. Unbelievable place. Special thanks to varun. The food tastes so wonderful. It will be really a unforgettable experience
Nice ambience. Good service and Samy is well behaved, kind and polite towards us... One of the best restaurants we have visited in a long time... The dishes were pretty good and they had many varirties as well for both veg and non-veg. Best thing is orders were on time. Thanks to Samy again for his kind service.
This place is great. Lucky to meet Varun bro. He services is beyond expressions , good one best to meet nice one dish and everything need,,,,,
My first visit to this place. Its a good place with lovely food. The ambience was ok.the service was good though. We went for the buffet and the food was really good and worth the money. Both veg and non-veg was good. The one thing different about this buffet is that they serve everything on the table and they bring it and keep it on your table in bulks. Deserts were also good.

Cleo's has always been on the list and somehow never got the chance to visit it. Finally after the visit, we were so satisfied with the food, ambience and the service. Mushroom and Cottage cheese steak was my favorite. It wasn't too heavy yet filled the tummy. Honey chilli potatoes were amazing.
Will I go to this place again? Yes

Hype Demystified at Cleo”s Grill
The Cleo was chosen for lunch owe to rating and proximity to Bessy! The experience was not so GrT when compared with the ratings on Google. The waiters are clueless of what’s on cards. Usually, the guys at restaurants offer tips to choose the menu, describe items, ask for preference etc. This was totally off the road at Cleo.
The Broccoli soup Veg was messy, the soup was creamy white sauce made of all purpose flour and broccoli flavour was not their at all, only hard stem of broccoli was present.
The prawn was charred and dry. The chicken skewers were moist but chewy.
The curry served were almost the same for Rogan gosh, chicken butter masala or chicken tikka masala:-(.
May be if you go without any expectations, you may like it.
Happy eating.
Different buffet experience!! Not the usual barbeque type starters, they serve everything in our table. Food quality was good. Starters were crispy and tasty. Main course was good too. Desserts were disappointing, total let down. If you don't have sweet tooth you can very well choose this restaurant for buffet.
Awesome ambience!!
Easy to find , management is good to serve people.
Food variety is different with nice taste from starters to main course specially the unlimited juice's taste is pretty different from usual once !!!
Overall a good place for lunch and dinner with friends and family!
So, we went to Cleo's for team dinner for a group of 6 colleagues.
We selected the place as it was a stone's throw from the Ramanujan IT City Park at Taramani which is 10mins away. Also, the reviews were good for the buffet rate of INR 680 per person including tax. Only one of us was a vegetarian! So obviously good value for money.
The one thing we liked about Cleo's was the variety. Oh goodness gracious, we felt overwhelmed by the variety in both veg and non veg which the starters and the main course.
The ambience is more suited for couples than for team dinners though the place is bit quiet and not large or roomy.
Great service overall but I knocked off 1 star as I felt that the non veg starters had a lot more masala and spice than it should have. Something felt missing in the Peri Peri chicken starter.
Point is you won't regret having a meal here as the place scores on value for money even if the taste isn't the best out there.
The 4+ rating on zomato was the only motivation I had to go to this place and I must say, I wasn't disappointed. The food was tasty and appetizing but I also felt that it could use a little more finesse. Although the steak was juicy but it wasn't the proper cut for the dish. The only reason for a 4 star rating on this review is that somehow the ambiance, food and the service binded together to give me a pleasant experience.
I might not try the steak again but I'd love to try the other dishes from the menu.
Good food. Great ambience. The way the light is kept you can easily get some Instagram worthy photos. Food wise too the starters were tasty. Loved the chilly baby corn and dragon chicken. Main course wise it was okayish. The chicken tikka gravy was sub par. The dal fry was just dal with some salt. Panneer tikka was good though. The biryani was also nothing worth writing about. But the desserts was amazingly good. Especially the butterscotch ice cream was heavenly.
Decent food, great quantity for the price. One time visit. But not a must go, may be can visit for a change. Not to crowed usually, can go if all the restaurants are packed on holidays.
Great food and excellent service. A cozy place for a realaxed lunch or dinner.
Fully packed during weekends. Dishes are worth the price and quantity.
I went there for a lunch buffet. I had the vegetarian buffet option and the food was good. I was served baby corn, chopsuey, vegetable soup, veg sizzler and a welcome drink for starters. I would say the sizzler was nice and the baby corn was amazing. Also the welcome drink is really nice and refreshing. Then for lunch i wad served naan and tandoori roti along with paneer tikka masala, veg manchurian, daal fry, veg noodles, veg biriyani. The biriyani as well as the noodles were amazing. For desserts we were served phirni and carrot halwa along with vanilla and butterscotch ice cream. The phirni was really good. We were hosted by vishal who was very courteous and the service was prompt.
Taken non veg buffet food was good they have 5 Starters in which 3 chicken starters, one fish starter and mutton starter coming to the main course they had butter naan Roti, chicken noodles , chicken biryani, chicken tikka masala coming to desserts they give ice creams
Must try roti with chicken tikka masala totally loved that combo.
For one person it is 692/- with all taxes.
