In the heart of Chennai, where every street corner is steeped in tradition and every home carries the fragrance of home-cooked meals, Sangeetha Desi Mane has quietly become a name synonymous with comfort, flavor, and belonging. As we proudly celebrate 40 glorious years, we aren’t just marking time—we’re honoring every smile, every shared thali, and every moment that made us who we are.
What began in 1985 as a modest vision has today blossomed into something much larger than a restaurant. It has become a part of Chennai’s collective memory—a space that feels like home. Back when the city was still called Madras, our journey began with one humble outlet, built on authenticity, love, and an uncompromising commitment to traditional vegetarian fare. Over the years, we’ve stood by Chennai through its many seasons—joyous festivals, uncertain monsoons, spirited protests, and peaceful family Sundays. Through it all, you stood with us. You embraced us. And with your love, we grew.
Today, with over 58+ outlets globally, we’re proud to say the essence remains the same. And at the center of it all is Sangeetha Desi Mane, a beloved vertical of the iconic Sangeetha Veg Restaurant—one that continues to deliver the best South Indian meal in Chennai with unmatched authenticity.

You brought us into your routines, your rituals, and your relationships. You made us your go-to spot for family outings and your quiet corner for solo meals. And in doing so, you made our story yours.
