Restaurant Review - Coast II Coast, MG Road

I remember coming to Coast 2 Coast and eating the chicken ghee roast long ago. The thought of it still brings back good memories, but i didn't get a chance to come back here for last 3 years, until recently.
It was a fortunate co-incidence that only the hard core non vegetarians of our group happened to meet for dinner and we decided to devour sea food for the night.

Coast 2 coast has been in Shrungar complex between mg road and church street for quite some time now, and is quite popular among the regulars.
It's a decently laid out restaurant where you can relax, have a couple of drinks, watch a game on TV and have good food.
We had a few beers and ordered some starters to go along with it. They have chinese and north indian variants also apart from seafood.

We were in an experimental mood and ordered one dish from each, namely prawn chilly, chicken tikka and chicken sukka.
Prawn chilly was the worst dish of the evening without doubt. After finishing half the plate we realised it was our prawn dish and not chicken, cos it certainly didn't taste like prawn, too much masala in it.
The chicken sukka was very nice, good flavours and chicken was cooked just right. So we ended up ordering some neer dosa to have with the chicken.
The tandoori chicken was also a good choice with our beer.

We ordered fish curry for the main course and chose anjal from the fish varieties they had. It was a medium spiced curry and fish was fresh and tender. The chicken pulimanchu was our other dish, which had a different gravy than the fish and tasted good too. Appams and brown/white rice go along very well with these curries.

The service is fast and they even changed our appams within a minute when we felt they were not hot.
The options for vegetarians here are sparse, but the name should make it clear that it's not a paradise for the herbivores.
But it's a good dining option for the sea food and chicken lovers. Must recommend.

Rating - 4/5
