About this business

Madras Mahal is the first Indian Restaurant on the Lexington Avenue. It is also the uniquely first one to promote KOSHER Indian Vegetarian food. For almost 20 years it has maintained its quality of food for better taste and has provided a delightful experience of dinning at an Indian Restaurant. NY Press has awarded us for our Excellency in making "Dosai" in 1996. We understand that saying is not enough unless you experience it by your self. We would like to welcome you at Madras Mahal to enjoy the variety of food from North... read more

Just love thier DOSA – so couple of my friends after long day at work were looking to have south indian food, so one of our friend recommended Madras Mahal. So we made reservation for 4 people, we got there and staff was very welcoming and smiley very rare in indian restaurants. So then we ordered like 5 different dosa since we were all longing for dosas. And wow food came right on time, dosas were looking just great. We all had great time, and also service wise this place is A+. I think so far Madras Mahal has the best dosa... read more

Simply Delicious – Incredible crispy dosa with perfect blend of spices. We had great time at Madras Mahal, with fantastic(simple yet Elegant) decor. indeed this one is far more better than any other south indian restaurant in NYC. I just cannot wait to go back and order rava Masala dosa is simply delicious

Best Food Best Price Best Service – Granted I haven't been to many other restaurants that serve this genre of food but there might be a reason why... This place is great. The food is addicting, the wait staff is really nice, the atmosphere is so inviting, and you can't beat their Masala chai & Badam Halva (YUMMI). However, if you want a place where you never see another living soul for the duration of your meal this isn't the place for you. The wait staff is always bustling about refilling your drink, clearing away unwanted ... read more

Nothing about this restaurant was pleasant. This is coming from someone who is relatively easy to please. The food was bland and the service was horrendous. At one point, I spilled my water glass--when I informed the waiter of this he said he would clean it up--he never got around to it. We ended up cleaning the water up ourselves. My boyfriend and I couldn't figure out how this place could stay in business. It was, by far, the worst dining experience ever!!! We would have had a better time at home, eating a microwaved veggi... read more

Bland Taste – Was not impressed with this place for various reasons, the dinner was a bit pricey, the buffet was extremely limited and the service was nice but apathetic at the same time. Its a vegan's dream here, but a meat lover's nightmare.

Great South Indian food We go here on the weekends quite a bit. They are a good option for vegetarian South Indian food. I especially like their pau bhaji and chole batura. The price is not bad and the service is usually fine, sometimes a little slow. They also have good Madras-style coffee and tasty desserts.

Great food, great price, and it's koshser! – For the money, you can't beat this please. The dishes are well presented; prepared with a little flare. Often, I find that Indian restaruants tend to over-cook their food, but not Madras Mahal. The portions were generous, and while the prices were very reasonable, the decor was not no-frills in the least. The added bonus is Madras Mahal adheres to strick kosher guidelines, something they accomplish without compromising their menu since it's a vegetarian restaurant. Yet, on the eve... read more
