Would love to talk about one of the #oldest & my one of my favourite #SouthIndian restaurant in the city today - talking about #MadrasRestaurant on #CRAvenue which was founded way back in 1939 - a simple restaurant where one has nothing else to talk about but the delicious & authentic food on offer at an unbelievably economical pricing even today..
Walked in here after ages a couple of days ago for lunch with #mom who was reminescing her quick #lunchdates out here with #dad in the late eighties where the bill used to touch 5 to 7 rupees max for a Masala Dosa & Idli - can you believe that 😀
This place is currently owned by a South Indian family who also owns the Udupi outlet across the road - the original South Indian owners who founded the restaurant are no more a part of the management these days.. This place always hustles and bustles with office crowd but now they are struggling to make ends meet unfortunately because of this Covid situation - let's hope another iconic joint doesn't shut down.. Please walk in and enjoy a meal whenever you are around.. In today's job hopping world - it's so enriching to find most of their staff working for more than 35 years at this same restaurant..
We enjoyed #GheeIdli (freshly made - melt in the mouth idlis), #MeduVada (the best & crispy yet soft vadas that I have tasted till date in the city - reminded me of my Mumbai days where I use to get this taste more frequently even from roadside vendors), #MasalaDosa & my favourite #GheeButterOnionSadaDosa - the #coconutchutney served with these delicacies is truly mind-blowing to say the least..
As a footnote, let me also talk about my personal views about #AnandRestaurant (which is relevant out here because it's also a pretty well known South Indian restaurant just a couple of buildings away) as well - the more upmarket South Indian restaurant nearby - they were always grossly overpriced but atleast they offered quality food on the table but offlate in the past couple of years I have realised through 3 to 4 visits that their quality has deteriorated drastically yet they are still grossly overpriced - I would suggest everyone to opt for #Madras anyday if you are looking for good South Indian meal in that vicinity rather than just a great ambience)
My humble two cents: #MUSTTRY (if you haven't already) 🤝

Delicious place to have South Indian food at pocket friendly prices.
Happy fooding!
The restaurant is famous for its south indian dishes. I ordered masala dosa and crispy baby corn from here. It was well packaged with proper portions. Liked the timely delivery.
One thing I didn't like is the dosa is not appropriate for a non-spicy food lovers. The white chutney and dosa masala was spicy,being a non-spicy food lover i didnt like that.
Overall it was good,loved the crispy baby corn.
This is one of the Best South Indian foods Joints of Kolkata.
I Ordered Masala Dosa and Idly during lock down.
The taste was awesome. The amount of chutneys given along with dida Was quiet adequate.
Going there since childhood. Aankh band karke jaiye udhar aur khaiye..
Upma.
Cheese Onion Tomato Uttapam.
Upma tastes very simple. It's very light as well. The curry leaves had a strong flavour infused in it. The sambar and the coconut chutney accompanied it very well.
The Uttapam was very crispy. It looks like a South Indian version of a pizza. Moreover, all the ingredients seemed fresh to me.
Overall, a nice experience.
Located near Chandni chowk, this little place serves one of the best south Indian dishes. Small cozy place with different types of crowd. In frame : Chessy onion uttappam. Rate (5/5)
Been visiting here since childhood. The food here is tasty and the prices are also affordable and reasonable. The rawa masala dosa and the onion masala dosa are my favorite. Idli and vada are also worth the try. Do visit with family or order in if delivery to your house is available.
Dropped in here for two quick small meals. Ordered curd rice the first time I was there, and an idly-vada combination the second time round. The food was quickly and tasted wonderful. In particular, the day I ate the curd rice, instead of the standard lime or mango pickle, I got what appeared to be a pickle made from arhar/toor daal. When I complimented the server on the quality of the pickle, he very kindly served me a huge second helping free of charge. A small thing, but these matter.
The restaurant is a small one located near one of the exits of the Chandni Chowk Metro station. It has two rows of tables with seating for six or four per table depending on the size. It is fairly clean, and the service was quick (though I should keep in mind that I had ordered dishes that could be served almost immediately). I will certainly visit this place again.
Love mutton kima (muglai flavour). Though this place is not hygienic and located at very crowded place.. But one would not regret trying out their secret ingredient laced mutton kima.
Is there any youtube video covering their restaurent n recipe??
Excellent restaurant with exceptional food quality abd reasonable price.freshly prepared items.their biriyani,mutton keema,rumali roti are famous
They have less variety in the menu. But I loved the taste of their food. I ate mutton champ, mutton keema with Rumali roti.
The mutton is very tender and very juicy. The spice's in the mutton is perfect. The combination is best for mutton lover's. Must visit place if you are in Kolkata.
They also have biryani you can try that.
The food was very tasty. I ordered a chicken bharta and it was very good and yummy. The price is also very cheap . The mutton kima was also very tasty.
But the restaurant needs some cleaning.
Food Quality Good. Very Popular Restaurant. Should be more focused on hygienic
Though the restaurant situated in a densely populated open market area but the Moughlai dishes are finger liking delisous.All dishes are made on the clay oven that makes the dish taste so good
Located at Brabon Road, famous for Mutton Kima. Biryani, Rice Kima, Roti, are a few item you may like most
Small eatery . Maximum 20 persons can sit and take food onsite. Very reasonable Tariff . Good quality.
Food was good. Mutton keema test was very nice
Madras restaurant is very good Restaurant and special Moghlai item and there Mutton qima is very famoush
