" I took some family visiting from out of town to Madras Cafe, hoping to impress them with amazing South Indian food. Thankfully, the dosas and coffee lived up to the expectations! However, the service fell short. The staff seemed a bit overwhelmed during rush hour, leading to long waits. I’ll be back because the food is just so good! " (*Curated Review*)

" The authenticity of the dishes stands out at Madras Cafe! I particularly enjoyed the banana leaf thali—every item was delicious and reminiscent of home. The supportive staff made this visit even better, although the seating arrangement could use some refinement for comfort. I am definitely returning to try more dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to try this place based on recommendations. The food was good, but there were some issues with cleanliness and the wait time. The dosas had great flavor, but my favorite was the vada. I'd recommend it if you're in the area; just be prepared to wait a little " (*Curated Review*)

" Ordered the live dosa at the buffet, and they were fantastic. The chefs here really know how to prepare dosas to perfection. Though the place could improve on cleanliness, the food alone makes it worth it. I left feeling not just satisfied but full, a rarity in most restaurants! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every visit to Madras Cafe feels like a journey back to Tamil Nadu. I love their special thali which always has a lot of variety and taste. However, I did notice that it can be hit or miss with other dishes, so be sure to ask the staff for good recommendations on what to order. I think it's a brighter gem compared to other ethnic restaurants nearby. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a long-awaited dinner at Madras Cafe! We tried the thali and enjoyed a good variety of flavors, though some dishes could be more consistent. Overall, a solid place for South Indian food with a friendly atmosphere. I will be back to try more from their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe how lucky I got to find Madras Cafe! After sampling the thali, I was blown away by the flavors. Each component felt homemade and not overly spicy, just like my mom's cooking. The chutneys were a delight as well! The only downside was that the place can get quite crowded, which made for a loud meal. Nevertheless, I'll keep coming back for more. " (*Curated Review*)
