The food was amazing and the varieties of chutneys are really mind blowing . The show stopper is the ghee POdI idly but quite expensive but definitely a must try. POdI ghee dosa was also yum
Tried ghee podi idli and rava dosai. Podi masala is made in such an authentic style. Ghee float added so much flavour. Idli was so soft sponge like. The way this dish was served it made me feel hungry for me. Rava dosai was crispy and it had such a good net formation in it. Mind blowing south indian food. I wish I could have such food everyday.
Had a full meals for a hundred bucks. Worth the money. Please note that their meal does not include chapati/puri. Items were javarsi payasam (sabudana?), Masal vada, appalam, rice, kootu, fried poriyal, one sabji, buttermilk, rasam, karakozambu, sambar and dal. Quite clean ambience with AC and good servers.
For dinner, I had idly with podi (costs extra), 4 types of chutney, sambar, sambar vada, ghee dosa and coffee. All were nice. Coffee had slightly more chicory than my preference.
Best idlies and dosa's in town, nothing can beat the breakfast that you get here and best part is that the quality is maintained all across. Only thing I think they need to work on is to ensure they keep the place also up to date.
The best place in Chennai for Idly. Love the taste of the side dishes. Jigirthanda is another highlight in the restaurant. Staffs are polite and do the best service.
The sweet pongal was too yummy and tasty!!!
The podi idili was out of the world !! Paniyaram was also great, every dish that you order is very rich in quality
Watching out for some mouth watering South Indian delicacies, the one stop destination.
The service is quick and serve sizzling hot food, the Podi Idly, Onion Uttapam and Ghee Sweet pongal is a must try here. The the Jigarthanda is a total finisher that keeps your hunger totally satisfied.
If you haven’t visited this place I’d recommend you to step into one of them.
Overall 5⭐️ for the quality of food they’ve been maintaining from the past years.
Tasty idlies and dosas with very tasty chutneys. I would say this is the one beat place wher you get good breakfast and dinners. I love to eat their idlies with their sidedishes.
The Murugan shop idlis are worth checking out as they serve one of the idlis in town. It would advice anyone visiting Chennai to try out the same.
The place provided awesome food with different varieties of side dishes and The sambhar and the idlis we're served hot and the service is fast
Must visit place when in Chennai. Lovely idlis and dosa.
The presentation is good. Quality is good and the service is quick. Loved the podi dosa and idli. People should definitely give it a try.
They provide awesome food with different varieties of side dishes i like the way they serve and i like the puli chutni which is was really fabulous
Nice Food.. delivered on time by Zomota

I love the piping hot idlis with different varieties of chutney . Podi idlis are awesome as well. Pudina chutney (Green chutney ) goes very well with the plain hot idlis .
Ghee podi onion uthapam is a must try here .
Jigharthanda is also good
Must try :
Hot idlis with chutney
Ghee podi onion uthapam
nice and tasty food only the quantity of sambar was less
Be hygienic and neat. Afternoon meal is ver tasty especially payasam and pulikozhambu. And the sweet pongal is highlight of the lunch. #chennai_food
Name is idli shop but what I loved are their tastiest butter masala dosa, butter uthappam than their butter podi idli... Lots of chutneys to choose from which is an advantage since their coconut chutney is full of water ... Tasty sambar tasty food best prices
Quantity of Sambhar should have been more
I recommend all to try Jigarthanda. This is one of the place where you can taste best jigarthanda on earth. They serve hot medhu vada even after 9pm.
Jigarthanda - 5/5
Service was good.
Best place for people who love idly and dosa.

Murugan idli shop’s major highlight is their sambar and chutneys. I can satisfy my appetite only by having them 😬.
All tiffins items are note worthy especially their ghee roast and ghee podi idli. They were fantastic. Vadai was puffy and big enough.
It won’t be good idea to have Pongal at this place other than morning, when I had it for lunch it was very warm.
One thing to give a try is definitely their veg meals. It’s under rated but it’s really nice. Actually I would prefer veg meals if it’s available than tiffin items.
At last, meal doesn’t get over at this hotel without having Jigarthanda. It was mouth watery and probably they are the first one to bring it to Chennai.
Ambience was good and parking can be a headache.

quantity of chutney and sambar very less
very good on time delivery
Idly idly and its all about idlies here ! There are so many outlets in different parts of chennai and it maintains a consistent taste. There are many other things on menu but idlies here are the hot fav !
FOOD: Fluffy Idly's, amazing lip smacking chutneys, thick sambar and authentic South Indian food. That's what you get here. Just try anything without a doubt. Idly's are available round the clock. But you should eat them there. During parcel Idly's get little hard. But it's yummy when eaten in restaurant.
AMBIENCE: Basic interiors.
SERVICE: Service is good at any part of day.
Must try for ppl who love South Indian.

Great place for having South Indian food. Offers a variety of dishes to choose from. One of the must trys is the variety of chutneys. The ghee onion rava dosa is great.
Decent south indian restaurant. Their speciality is the variety of chutneys that they serve. Have tried idli, dosa, uttappam. Overall the food taste also is good. Ordinary ambience though. Everything is served on a banana leaf kept on a plastic plate.
Great food and quick service.
Soooo good and tastyyyy mouthwatering food❤️😋😋
Suggestions - Do try Muruku sandwich
Thattu idli, Dosa #ghee #podi ... Tastes so yummy
And especially the sidish
Murugan Idli to me is like water to fish. Can't resist their food. Easily one of the best South Indian restaurants in Chennai. Their idlys melt like butter and their Dosa and Vadas are as well killer. A definite recommendation.
excellent app and service thank u
Good south indian breakfast and snack items. Comfortable interiors. Service was also prompt. Prices are higher than other such establishments, but it's worth the extra for the cleanliness & comfort.
Well this place was recommended by a few locals for pure vegetarian Chennai food. The ambience is just like any typical south Indian Udupi restos in mumbai. We ordered ghee podi idli, wada, paniyaram, ghee podi masala dosa and onion uthappam. The food here is absolutely great. The choices of chutneys is superb, the sambar is good and the podi is just awesome. For desserts we ordered the sweet pongal which was loaded with dry fruits and ghee. It was heavenly. And finally the showstopper was the Jigarthanda, If you haven't tasted it before then you must. Similar to a falooda but so different. This was a fun experience and will definitely recommend to visit.
Ambiance has taken a beating in the last few years. Service is satisfactory. The size of the idlis and dosas has been reduced. Quality is good.
Good South Indian family restaurant. Price is not bad either. Quality is good.
However, I now go to this place only to have their JIGARTHANDAAAA!!! 🤤🤤🤤
Just the thought of it makes me drool!
I'm not kidding you guys! You have to try it! It's AMAZING!! And don't order the special jigarthanda. They add Baasundhi or something, and it's not all that wow.
Go for the normal one. The plain old Jigarthandaaaaa!! 5⭐️ for it😸😸
Orders were..
Ghee podi idli..
Onion uthapam..

Most of the people like dosa in south cuisine so do I and it is a place were you get varieties of dosa. Paneer butter dosa,sweet Pongal are must try one. The service is quick and the shop is spacious 😊
Great place to have south Indian breakfast..parking availability is less in this outlet.
Very quick service..chutneys are good, so is the sambar.! U can't afford to miss their jigarthandha, simply amazing, must try..!!!
Reasonable cost for the quantity and quality..!
Amazingly tasty 😋😋
1. Podi idly
2. Plain idly
3. Onion podi uttam
4. Coffee
Thank me later , after tasting only.
The food was nothing short of amazing. It was piping hot and served with minimal wait time. The service was excellent. The quantity could have been a little more for the amount listed (especially Pongal). Yet another plus was that there were 4 different chutneys and sambar served with the food I ordered and each of them had a distinct and amazing taste.
loved the food, loved the service. they even suggested us what we can try. very politely and with love they served us the food. Pls make a note... they serve food on banana leaf.. very authenticate. they do have JAIN menu to. To all my JAIN friends a must try.
You should rename this shop as murugan sakkarai Pongal shop.
One of the best sakkarai Pongal in Tamilnadu.
Need to improve the way staff service quality and information about the dishes and prices
2 & 4 wheeler parking available.
South Indian special food. Good quality food and reasonable
We came here for our brunch. Whenever we are in Chennai we do come here to eat idli for sure. This time one of the chutney was spoiled so one star less. But rest all was very tasty.
This branch lacks the "standard" atmosphere of MIS group. However it is ok to Dine in, if you are in a hurry and want to have a quick bite.
If you are ordering uthappam or Adai, instruct the waiter to cook / roast it well. I got half-cooked Adai during my last visit.
Parking space is limited to the road-side and hence during peak hours it is a bit difficult to find parking space for cars.
Maintenance is poor. Service is little slow and not that much enticing.
Good taste
What idlis bvouy! Nice fluffy. The best ive had over India. Masala wada, Medu wada, podi dosa, filter coffee. All superb. This place may be a bit difficult to spot as is a bit on inside. Cheers to good taste!
Best plt for dosa and varieties of chutney in Chennai. My go to place always
Great food. Good place to satisfy your light cravings breakfast or dinner.
Most authentic South Indian food... especially podi Idli, sweet Pongal and Jigarthanda
Went to Murugan Idli Shop after ages and the place didn't disappoint. The place just opened back after the suspension of their license but the food tasted yummy. Ordered Idli, Medu Vada, their special - Ghee Podi Onion Uthappam and all the food was yummy. The filter coffee could have been better. Overall, pocket friendly nice place.
