How was this list made?
We looked at the Google Maps listings shown for searches for restaurants and cafés in Chengalpattu in October 2026. That covers most of them, but not necessarily every restaurant in the city.
Each restaurant is scored by its Google rating, weighted by its number of reviews, so a 5.0 from 12 reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from 600. The score is (reviews × rating + 50 × the Chengalpattu average) ÷ (reviews + 50).
To be listed, a restaurant needs a rating of 4.0 or more from at least 20 reviews. Averages count those with at least 5 reviews.
