About

Thanjai Cholas is highly regarded for its authentic Tamil Nadu flavors, with many customers feeling like they are back home. The biryani and parotta varieties are standout items.

Tastes just like home in Tamil Nadu.

The mutton kothu parotta is a must-try.

Great food, but the place is quite small.
