"Pretty good dosa. Hot and crispy. Gobi manchurian was flavorful. Just wish their masala chai had a bit more spice, I couldn't taste much cardamom or other spices. Overall it was good. Will come again to try other menu."
In the southern part of India, the word ‘Aachy’ fondly refers to ‘grandmothers’. At Chettinad Aachy’s, we draw inspiration from the timeless recipes and love that grandmothers infuse into every meal. Our mission is to bring the same warmth, taste, and tradition to every dish we serve.
Chettinad Aachy’s was born out of a deep passion for food—specifically South Indian tiffin delicacies. We specialize in vegetarian and non-vegetarian breakfast, lunch, evening snacks, and dinner. Our crispy dosas, soft idlis, and signature chutneys bring you the true essence of South India.
Today, Chettinad Aachy’s offers an intimate and authentic South Indian dining experience in Edmonton. With dishes cooked in a traditional tandoor oven and specialties like Jigarthanda, Lassi, and Falooda, we are committed to quality, flavor, and heartfelt service—just like Aachy would make.
Dive into the bold and aromatic flavors of Chettinad cuisine—known for its rich use of spices, coconut, and traditional cooking techniques passed down through generations of South Indian kitchens.
At Chettinad Aachy’s, every dish is prepared from scratch using handpicked ingredients. From freshly ground masalas to farm-fresh veggies, our food is packed with purity and flavor.
Inspired by the love of ‘Aachy’—our grandmothers—we serve each guest with heartfelt warmth. Expect more than a meal: expect comfort, tradition, and care in every bite.

"A friend recommended this place, and I’m so glad we went — it was totally worth it! We tried the Mysore Dosa, Rava Dosa, and Chicken Chettinad. Everything was tasty and super filling. The chicken was especially flavorful and well-cooked. We’re definitely planning to visit again to explore more dishes on their menu. If you’re looking for authentic South Indian food, this spot is a must-visit!"

"This is a must try spot for authentic south indian cuisine. We ordered 1 mutton kottu parotta, 1 idly and undu vada combo, a flavorful rasam , an extra undu vada with sambar, and a pop (sprite) to go with it all. Every dish was absolutely mouth watering , rich in flavor and perfectly spiced. The staff were warm and welcoming too. A good place for hot, flavourful south Indian foods."
