Worst place to visit.The bouncer named John unnecessarily argued with us and refused to give Zomato discount. Did not allow us to talk to the restaurant manager. Please do not visit this place, do not treat guests with respects

While entering into the restaurant we were not told about booking options and unfairly charged cover charges. Later we were denied of the option to pay through Zomato. Mr. John who claimed that he was the restaurant manager was extremely rude and unwilling to hear and forced us to pay extra money

So we friends wants to visit some cool. Place during Halloween weekend so we decided to go purple chameleon. We don’t drink but we like great atmosphere and food. We had booked a table for three through Zomato app since they had discount going on. Purple Chameleon stands out in Chennai’s bustling bar-dining scene with its stylish atmosphere, diverse menu, and energetic vibe. Perched on the 2nd/4th floor of Phoenix Market City, its modern decor—accented by moody purple lighting and chic seating—creates a cool, upscale lounge feel . The menu spans a wide spectrum, blending fast-food favorites, North Indian classics, Chinese staples, and Asian-fusion plates, catering well to varied tastes . Highlights include Karepak Era Prawns in Mangalorean masala and crisp Japanese-style fried chicken topped with sesame-coated onion rings—perfect for sharing . Thai green curry and rum‑soaked gulab jamun are satisfying main-course and dessert picks . Swiggy and Dineout feature popular dishes like paneer tikka, pulled beef tacos, and fish & chips . Service is polished and attentive; many diners praise the staff’s friendliness, though one reviewer noted occasional lapses in hygiene—spotting a mouse near the bar—which reportedly earned a nonchalant staff response . The bar is a serious draw: craft cocktails elicit high praise (“deadly”) and the alcohol menu includes a solid pint selection. The ambience thrives on lively beats; it’s ideal for groups or nights out, though quieter conversations may be tough due to the upbeat music . With ample seating, live-sports viewing, and pre-book offers like 25–35% discounts. Purple Chameleon is a vibrant, stylish destination for cocktails and sharable plates. Its menu is diverse, drinks are top-notch, and the vibe is energetic—perfect for parties and lively dinners. Just double-check during peak hours on hygiene and noise.
