Excellent vegan menu - Edit
Really good variety on their separate vegan . The separate menu made it very easy to select our choices rather than having to search through the menu. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Great Indian restaurant - Edit
Fantastic variety. The main menu is labelled but you can see it all on a dedicated vegan menu. The house specialities great and different from the typical dishes.

Great restaurant with large vegan menu - Edit
Went to Chennai Express for the first time recently and was really happy with the meal. There was a huge list of vegan options on their vegan menu.
Read moreI would recommend the trio of drinks (portion size was much better than I expected), which was a really nice way to try all three options on the menu.
Both the starters and the main were delicious, and the waiting staff were great. One of the waiters (potentially also an owner/manager?) was very curious to see if we were enjoying the meal and the tofu was cooked well.
The atmosphere was really nice and was a visually nice place to spend a meal, and having an open kitchen is always a nice reassurance.
Overall, I'd really recommend Chennai Express and will definitely be returning soon.
Pros: Range of options, Delicious Food, Drink Trio

FANTASTIC! Do not miss this Gem! - Edit
Do not miss this fantastic South Indian Street Food Restaurant!
Read moreWe have been frequenting Chennai for a few years now, and were absolutely delighted when they opened a new branch in Fleet. They have a full extensive Vegan menu, and my biggest problem is that I never know what to choose!
The Bhaji basket is to die for, with different tasty morsels of South Indian street food, such as onion bhajis, fried potatoes, a whole fried chilli, aubergines, cauliflower, served with dipping sauces. The poppadom basket is also awesome, as there are different types of poppadoms, not just the standard ones.
The Dosas are perfect, crispy, golden and the filling delicious, always!
Last time we visited I tried the Tofu Polichattu, which is cooked in banana leaves and it was the most delicious tofu I have ever tasted, served with lemon rice and salad. A must try.
I am yet to taste something I don't like at Chennai!
The setting is vibrant and colourful, with lots of Indian decor, the service is top notch, always very attentive and pleasant, and nothing seems a bother. The guys always have time to chat to you and recommend food. Cleanliness is also top notch.
Whenever we've taken family or friends to Chennai, they've been impressed.
10 stars out of 5 from us!
PS: Chennai Fleet have also started doing take-away service :)
Pros: Vegan Menu, Lots of choice, Very friendly service & Clean
Cons: Never know what to choose, I want to eat the menu

Amazing vegan options! - Edit
There was a whole vegan menu which included drinks, starters, mains and ice cream. We got the vegetable dumplings as a starter to share between two which was unbelievably tasty! We both had tofu mains, which were also great. We would definitely recommend for vegans and will return soon!
