Sharjah, UAE
A Decade of Authentic Flavour
Established in 2011, Chettinadu Restaurant — also known as Wadi Al Madeena Restaurant — has spent over a decade perfecting the art of authentic South Indian cooking for the vibrant community of the UAE. Conveniently situated in Industrial Area 15, Sharjah, we stand as a welcoming landmark for food enthusiasts seeking genuine, flavour-packed culinary traditions, proudly serving both Vegetarian and Non-Vegetarian palates.
Our culinary philosophy revolves around absolute authenticity. The name "Chettinadu" carries a rich legacy of complex spice blends — freshly roasted star anise, stone flower, fennel, and whole red chilies, hand-ground daily. We bring these time-honoured techniques from the kitchens of Tamil Nadu straight to Sharjah, serving hearty traditional dishes alongside contemporary favourites in a warm, inviting atmosphere.
"Whether you stop by for a comforting meal served on a fresh banana leaf or gather with family for a multi-course feast — Chettinadu Restaurant promises generous hospitality and unmatched flavour."
