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.

This is a small, quaint restaurant located on Main Street with a decent amount of seating space. The service was friendly & fairly quick. Overall, the food we ordered was quite good. We especially enjoyed the tea, coffee, & mango lassi.

If you're looking for something light with simple, satisfying flavors, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try. The portion sizes are generous, & the pricing is reasonable too.

This is absolutely delicious, authentic South Indian fare. The ambience leaves something to be desired, but the food makes the meal more than worth it. Highly recommend if you're in the Montreal area & seeking a dosa or other South Indian khana

We always choose this restaurant when we're in the downtown (near Guy-Concordia) area. It has a relaxed atmosphere, the food is tasty, & the prices are reasonable. The chicken curry is fantastic, & other South Indian dishes like dosa, idli-vada, & utthapam are delicious. However, I'm not a fan of the rotis here. Overall, we recommend it.

Ordered delivery several times from here as Taste is good of some items, they messed up the orders on 2-3 occasions with missing items or poor packaging causing leaks, also don't recommend Dine-In as our experience was terrible.

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.
