Went to Takkt to celebrate my friend’s birthday, and they truly made it extra special with the tres leches cake and a warm birthday song. The entire vibe was perfect for a fun hangout, and the birthday girl was beyond happy. A big shoutout to Sasi Kumar for his exceptional service, as always! I’ve visited Takkt many times, and he consistently ensures a great experience. His recommendations, especially their signature dishes, have never disappointed. Thank you, Takkt Can’t wait to visit again soon

I have been here multiple times. Closer to my work place. Wonderful menu & all listed are super good. Coffee is so damn fine & everytime I visit, I try something new in coffee & this is Cardamon au lait.

We went there for having lunch. There were little crowd. Ambience was good. Having ample car parking. Menu is not so big nor so small. We had three dishes a chicken starter, pasta and paneer burgers. Paneer burger was very tender and good. Starter taste was good. Pasta was average. Overall taste was good. Only problem I felt was waiting time, they take long time to prepare and serve. Rest are fine.

Tucked inside the M Convention Centre, Vanagaram, Takkt Southern Café is a cozy little gem that pleasantly surprises. Perfect for a spontaneous date, work session, or casual hangout, the vibe is warm and inviting. Walked in with low expectations, but the food absolutely delivered—comforting pumpkin soup, fiery piri piri fries, a flavorful paneer sandwich, and a dreamy French toast that sealed the deal. Definitely a spot worth bookmarking!

The ambience, interiors, their cabana (Outdoors), menu and the service is great. This place has been on my 'go to list' for a long time, glad we could make it. Best part is the outdoor seating is pet friendly. We could have our pupper and dine in too. The food was great, dessert needs some work though. Their staff were extremely friendly. Can't wait to visit again and try the rest of the items on their menu.
