Grand Cholan is a welcome addition to Loughton High Street, bringing South Indian flavors to the area. The restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere, and service is generally good, though it could be more focused, organized, and attentive, especially during busy weekends.
The food is delicious, showcasing authentic flavors, but there is still room for refinement. Some of the alcoholic drinks were unavailable during the visit, which was a slight disappointment, though hopefully, this will be resolved soon. The coffee was too milky and could be improved for a better finish to the meal.
Overall, it was a good dining experience that met expectations, and I would definitely visit again. With a few improvements in service and consistency, Grand Cholan has great potential to become a standout spot in Loughton.
