Review Summary

Madras Curry House is described as the best Indian restaurant in the greater Montreal area and a much welcomed South Indian option on the south shore. The flavors are said to taste like real Indian cuisine, with idlis and uttapams that are hard to find in Canada and praised for their quality. Dosas with sambar and chutneys, along with dishes like mutton kothu roti and chicken curry, are cited for rich flavors and perfect spice balance. Across visits, the consistency and authentic South Indian style stand out, with many noting comforting, nostalgic, homey flavors that feel like a warm hug. Service is typically friendly and welcoming, though some reviews mention longer waits due to a small kitchen and chef-owner operation. Values are favorable with generous portions and reasonable prices, and beverages such as tea, coffee, and mango lassi receive compliments. Overall, Madras Curry House is seen as a hidden gem worth returning to for dosa, curries and seafood options.

We had the chili cheese masala dosa & onion rava masala dosa, the sambar & 2 chutneys were so rich in flavuors. I can say that most restaurants cannot match this quality.

Must try!! From a person who's lived in Southern India for 6 years. 😄😄

I had Idli Vada combo. Quantity less & Quality more seems to be the idea here. Vada has less oil, sambar & chutnies are thick, not watery. But the sizes of idli & Vada are not that big in comparison to other South Indian Restaurants, you wont feel full & will order more.

The food quality & quantity are good. If you are looking for a home cooked meal without much of commercial cooking, this is a place to go!

I like this place a lot, because of its taste & quality. Today, I ordered kothu & mango Lassi. Mango lassi cost me 6cad + tax +tip, & I received a tiny cup of it, I would say little more than an espresso shot. I am not sure what to say here, either inflation is too high or I had false expectations.

We were a group of 5 on a busy Saturday night. Service was excellent & prompt. The owner/ cook surpassed himself on the quality & freshness of the food. We ordered Chicken 65, mixed South Indian appetizers, dosas. The dosas were extremely crisp. Our takeout orders were also amazing. I highly recommend all the food especially the dosas & Chicken 65.
