love this place

Tiffin is extremely delicious and affordable! Amazing lunch buffet (I think about $7.50)
I love a bunch of Indian restaurants in that area, but after a while I found myself going to Madras Mahal for the yummy food and going to Chennai Garden for their much better badam halwa for desert. When I went to Tiffin Wallah for the first time I got to have amazing food+ amazing desert under one roof! No more having to go restaurant hopping to have the best Indian meal!
- Pros: Delicious all the time+ cheap+ great lunch Buffet
- Cons: the lassi's here are too sweet
