One of the most memorable dishes we had was a special that our server highly recommended--and it was truly a showstopper. I wish I had gotten the exact name because I can't find it on their online menu, but visually and flavor-wise it was stunning. It came wrapped and cooked in a banana leaf, layered with rich, velvety saag, what tasted like thin dosa or chapati layers, egg, aromatic spices, tender chunks of meat, and curry, all melded together into this beautifully perfumed, steamy package. It was served with a cooling yogurt sauce and a chili sauce that balanced the heat perfectly. The presentation alone was gorgeous, and the flavors were deep, earthy, and incredibly comforting. We also ordered the curry goat, which was delicately spiced with a wonderful, slow-building heat. The meat was tender, the gravy rich without being heavy, and it paired perfectly with the simple white rice that let the complex spices shine. The tandoori goat chops were the family favorite by far. Everyone loved the smoky char and bold marinade. Personally, I found them a bit softer than I prefer, but the flavor was outstanding--robust, well-seasoned, and unmistakably tandoori. Finally, we ordered the Tandoori Pomfret to go, and I had it later with rice porridge. It was absolutely scrumptious. The fish was fragrant, beautifully spiced, and still juicy, making it the perfect comfort meal with the warm, soothing porridge. Overall, Subham Chettinad Grill delivers authentic, soulful Indian cooking with layers of spice, heat, and aroma that feel both traditional and thoughtfully prepared. If you're looking for real South Indian and Chettinad-style flavors in Austin, this place is a must-try.

I love a good dosa and Sangam Chettinad provided this! I came here with a few people. I can tell…read morethat this place can get busy quickly so I was glad to have come early. I ordered their masala dosa and it was everything I was looking for. The dosa was light and crispy and paired well with the complementary sauces. My favorite sauce was the minty one; its so refreshing. If you don't have a high tolerance for spicy, be cautious of which dish you order because some of them are packed with some heat. My husband ordered their egg biryani and it ended up being way too spicy for him to eat. Don't underestimate the spice level. We didnt ask but I wonder if we could have adjusted the spice level so that it wasnt too spicy. The staff was very attentive and friendly. They answered all my questions. Tuesday is Dosa night which means unlimited dosa. I would love to go back to enjoy dosa night!

We came through right before the freezing temps. It wasn't too crowded but I was surprised at the…read moreamount of folks coming through still. We were seated immediately. We like Indian food but aren't the most familiar, so we had to ask them to help explain the menu and for recommendations. We ordered 3 dishes which were super generous. The dosa was deceivingly large, the spicy pepper chicken was spicier than we thought, and then with the butter chicken we definitely had leftovers. Everything was great though, so I was happy to try it. We'll be returning! I really wanted to try the sampler I saw on Google, but it was lunch only. Next time!

We ordered a variety of dishes to share, all of which had generous portions: - Aloo tikki chaat - prepared and served fresh, this street food delicacy was a delight to try and a great start to our meal. - Spinach pakoras were crunchy, hot and tasty. Our party of 4 devoured this appetizer. - Hariyali Chicken Kebab - this was not what I expected. It was served with a gravy like a curry, when I'd expected a dry kebab dish from the grill. It was not my favorite. - Malai Kofta - yum! Not oily, just perfect. - Aloo Naan - very good, though I would've preferred paratha and was surprised that parathas weren't on the menu in a Punjabi restaurant. Ambiance is nothing to write home about. If you are craving a good, authentic north Indian meal with warm service, Bayleaf is a must visit.

They've recently renovated the space, and it now feels more upscale while still being comfortable and welcoming. Today I ordered a chicken tandoori-style dish, along with the butter chicken and garlic naan, and everything was absolutely delicious.

One of my favorite little touches is the adorable robot that sometimes delivers your food--it always makes the experience even more fun.

Great Indian food! This place was packed on a Saturday lunch hour. They have a huuuge menu, so…read moremaybe keep in mind roughly what you're interested in, otherwise you'll be looking at the menu all day. Even though it's pretty basic amongst so many other dishes they had, I got the Chicken Tikka Masala, medium spice. The portion size is pretty good, and the dish had a generous amount of chicken in it. It also came with a side of rice. I enjoyed the flavor! I'd say for medium spice it wasn't that spicy - felt more like a mild to me. Honestly, I'm pretty surprised to have found good Indian food in Round Rock. Despite the good food, I'm knocking off a star due to the fairly slow service. We were sitting outside so I'm not sure if at times they forgot about us, but I ended up having to walk in the store to ask someone to take our order because no one had come in a while. Our food also came out at different times; the first few dishes came, and then it felt like there was a solid ~5-8 minutes before the rest of the dishes came.

We made the mistake of trusting…read morea few (probably paid) influencer videos on social media absolutely raving about this restaurant and decided to give it a try. There were barely any people on a Saturday night which made us feel a little apprehensive after stepping in. The restaurant was dimly lit and restrooms were dirty. We were a group of 4 people, two of whom are Maharashtrian and know what the food tastes like. Comments for individual dishes: Vada pav - Not served with Mumbai pav but slider buns which is as unauthentic as can be. Sabudana vada - Crispy, tasted good, served with sweet yogurt. Pithla bhari - The worst I have ever had. Pithla was too runny, bhakri was downright stale/unedible. Pomfret fry - Fish skin was burnt, but taste was better than some of the other dishes. Puran poli - It was super thin, barely any puran filling and seemed to have been served after quick heating rather than fresh, the edges were unedible. Saoji chicken curry - Too much garam masala Triple Schezwan fried rice - This was the best dish among all those we ordered. It was served with manchurian gravy. A humble request to the restaurant management - please serve edible, authentic Maharashtrian dishes or remove them from the menu rather than misleading people.

I tried the Ulavacharu soup--absolutely delicious. It's main ingredient is horse gram, which apparently is in the legume family. It wasn't like any soup I've had before, so description is a bit tough. It was fairly spicy to start with, but less so as I kept eating it. The only things I could identify was ground up horse gram, some sweet onions, and some thinly shaved ginger, but it had a lot of complexity. Highly recommend that and the rose milk (especially if you need some relief from the spiciness when you start out.) I had a little bit of my friend's butter chicken sauce, and that was excellent too. More heavily tomato-based than I'm used to, but a lot of depth of flavor. I'd happily order that in the future. I can't wait to come back and try their buffet when my diet restrictions are over :) Service was great. I asked if a few of the menu items have coconut in them since I'm allergic, and our server double checked with the kitchen for me and was very nice about it. Really pretty dining room as well. The location isn't as central as I'd like, but that does make it easy to find parking in the lot. Definitely recommend!

I was a little unsure. The place was completely empty when we walked in, and the TV menu screens were off, so we had to rely on the paper takeout menus by the register. Luckily, we already knew what we wanted to try: the gyro wrap combo with fries and a drink. The soda fountain was also down, so they offered canned sodas instead. Not ideal, but thankfully the ice machine was working. To be fair, this was around 12:30 on a random Tuesday and they had only been open about an hour, so I'm giving a little grace there. Now for the important part... the food. The food came out quick, hot, and fresh. The portions were solid, and honestly, these were some of the best plain fries I've had since moving to Texas. Crispy, seasoned just right, and actually fresh. The gyro wrap was loaded and flavorful too. What really stood out was the service. The guy at the counter was super attentive and checked on us multiple times while we were eating. What initially felt like a sketchy little spot honestly turned out to be a hidden gem. Definitely one of those "don't judge a book by its cover" type places.
