16th November 2025 - I wanted to grab a quick lunch after my swim session and something vegetarian. So having been to kaylir a handful of times and i love the vibe of this place, i decided to have my lunch here. Valet parking was smooth, i was immediately allocated a table as soon as i arrived though it was crowded. Was informed it was a special lunch menu today, i happily agreed. Here comes the show downer’s, the service was poor. Basically the place was filled with ppl on a sunday afternoon and the place is poorly staffed or either they aren’t trained to handle crowd. The staff are regular staff’s of kaylir and not volunteers they use to have in initial days. I literally had to ask the service person multiple times just to serve my first serving of rice. I asked paruppu podi and ghee, they said they have only sambar, rasam and kara kozhumbu. Later gave me ghee but they were serving podi to other tables. Was served a cup of payasam, vazhapoo vada, sweet bonda type, a green poori, 4 types of poriyal, sambar,rasam, kara kozhambu, papads. All this items i had to ask the staff multiple times to serve. There were curd rice, puliogarai ( if i m right) on the menu, my next table folks were asking for yam fry repeatedly before it was served to them. This items were never served to me. I asked for butter milk at the end, they promptly told me it’s chargeable and i obliged. When i came out to pay the bill, i was charged 520 for the lunch and 66 for butter milk. When i checked their menu, some of the items never made it to my table. Felt like a daylight robbery. I had respect for this place and the people who come here. So i just informed my concern to the guy in the billing counter which went into deaf ears. 520 for a meal is too much priced, jus because you run a place in CIT colony and i’m ok to pay more than for a meal provide i’m served whats been listed in the menu with basic service etiquette and i don’t require to request multiple times for a first serving of rice. Kaylir you had a vibe and i think you last it today.
