The best and most authentic Indian curry I had in the town. We were a group of 4 and tried out different starters and mains. All were 10 out of 10. From my more than 30 years of experience with Indian cuisine, I can tell that the food Couldn't be better. The lamb chops starter and the monkfish dish was the star of the show according to my friends. They also have an extended menu for the vegetarian which I found quite helpful and unique as a vegetarian. I had the tawa sabzi which was a mix of maybe6-8 kinds of vegetables. Could taste freshness in every bite. The amount of oil was controlled to perfection as in my past experience found the curried of most of the places oily. From the waiter, I got to know that they don't use any Ghee or food colour in food which expresses their concern for healthy food. The spices used were fresh and not too much in amount which you can tell as you eat.The service was the best. Couldn't imagine this level of service at this price point. Was my first visit but can guarantee it won't be the last. Would recommend it to people who really know Indian curries.

Have been to many Indian restaurants but haven’t tasted something better than this. Will return soon for sure and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good Indian curry. Service was exceptional.

A great and authentic culinary experience with very friendly staff and southern style Indian food. Staff will guide you through the menu and the best experience. Wines however are a bit sub standard with a generous mark up, I would be happy to pay a little more and have a proper bottle - overalls great experience - best to book on en ends

The staff (one person) at the restaurant had a very idiotic attitude. After paying the bill I gave my feed back about the so called Veg Biryani which was nowhere near biryani flavor nor the ingredients. They had just put random veggies with no flavor at all (no salt nor spice and who adds ivy gourd in biryani). When told about, the one who is supposed to be the manager there, told we cannot satisfy everyone's taste buds and we change according to the locals. Then why the hell you call it an Indian restaurant if you cannot keep your authenticity. Throughout our dinner duration none came to check how everything was, whereas the same person went around where others were seated with all his teeth visible checking how everything was. Such a disgusting attitude which really spoiled our evening. Never going to visit back again nor suggest the place to anyone.As all other dishes we ordered were good I have given that rating for the food. Learn to treat people equally.25th NovThanks for your great response. You have mentioned respecting others and the main reason we gave this review was for the same. Not respecting people equally who visited your restaurant. We have visited multiple Indian restaurants in Glasgow and had Veg Biryani as well, but to my surprise never saw Ivy gourd in one. Maybe all other restaurants are yet to diversify.Also in recent conversations with known circles, we did get to understand that we were not the only ones to be treated with such disrespectful behavior at your restaurant and that says it all...

Lovely restaurant. We were on our way to another place to eat and it was cold and rainy and we stumbled across Madras Café and decided to take a chance. So glad we did! The staff were really friendly and helped with our choice of food, prices were reasonable and we had a great time.

Very warm and welcoming place. Great staff who were quick with service. Loved the way the menu was designed and ambience. Starters and street food was reasonably priced. Dosa felt £1-2 slightly expensive.Masala dosa was crispy, unique pink beetroot chutney. However, the sambhar lacked a certain flavour and didn’t quite feel satisfying.Paneer Frankie - Filling was spicy and tasty, however the outer covering should be a Paratha, but it tasted and felt like a spring roll that was deep fried.

One of most amazing Indian restaurant. Foods are halal, delicious and plated beautifully. The best battered prawn we had in Glasgow.
