Up until recently Chennai has had a serious dearth of affordable places that offered a decent beef burger. Yes, beef burgers not chicken! Of course there have always been the star hotels but unless you want a rip in your wallet it's better to stay away. It is only now with places like Double Roti that this has changed. But this quiet place in RA Puram has been faithfully churning out burgers and other comfort food for those in the locality for years now.
The menu
They have chicken and beef variants of most of the burgers on offer. Eatalica is well known for their very entertaining menu that is named after Hollywood celebrities. If you're a fan of garlic bread you'll order a "Bread Astaire" (Fred Astaire) or Stew Barrymore or Francis Ford Cupola if you're in the mood for soups! And in the burger section there's Harry Cowdini (BBQ burger), John Marlboro (smoky flavored patty burger) among others waiting for you. Kudos to them if this menu is an original creation.
Known for
As the name suggests, Eatalica offers some good Italian fare of which I have had only the lasagne and found it good. It comes in lamb, beef and chicken. I've had the Spicy chicken wings (Ethan Hawke) which was good but not great. Their pastas also are recommended although I haven't tried them. They even have sizzlers on the menu and I've seen many people order them when I've visited so they must be decent, at least. As for me I only order from here when I feel like having a good beef burger which is yummy and doesn't cost too much.
My favorite burger here is the beef Jennifer Showpez which is a Mexican burger topped with chilli flakes and Jalapeno topped with cheese. The beef patty is not too large like the one at Double Roti and the sauces are quite flavorful too mixed in with loads of mayo and some other sauces. You will bite into pieces of Jalapeno which goes very well with the beef. All in all a yummy burger which hasn't let me down most times. The cost comes to around 180 including tax. Some people find that it's too full of mayo so if you don 't like your burgers to get messy you can ask them to reduce it. It also comes with a small side of fries and ketchup packets. Friends love the items with bacon here but I am not a huge fan of bacon yet so maybe later.
Definitely a place to check out if you like burgers, sandwiches, lasagna and such comfort foods.
