Best KPortal Reviews

Amazing experience!!! Excelent food. We had appetizers, main and desserts and all was extraordinary. Our server David went above and beyond, we felt pampered at all times. Would recommend and definitely go back to dine at Madras.
Front of house were lovely and accommodating, as were the chefs. Food was very tasty and well presented, could tell care had gone into it. Good location and very close to bus stops and subway - would highly recommend!
Really great food, beautifully cooked and presented.
Staff were polite and attentive also great customer service. I ordered a dish which I didn't realise had coconut in it, which is not flavour I like, I spoke to waiter and this was changed to an alternative in minutes and no charge for original selection, also provided free rice as an apology.
Will definitely go back.
Heard a lot about this place, and this is why decided to try this restaurant for an early dinner. I have lived in south India for 6 years and IMHO this is not an authentic South Indian restaurant. £16 for 2 pcs idli (most densed idli I have ever seen) and 2 pcs vada with that sambar (?) and coconut chutney which lacked seasoning like everything else. sambar tasted a bit like potato curry, not at all like sambar. I wouldn’t mind paying this much for a starter if it’s tastes good. The only good thing was handi chicken, which is why two stars and don’t get me started on that so called Masala chai. Overall absolutely disappointing experience, not worth it and won’t recommend it to anyone.
Amazing food. Great service. Came here with my family, we had a wonderful evening. Thank you to the whole team for giving us a great experience.
The staff (one person) at the restaurant had a very idiotic attitude. After paying the bill I gave my feed back about the so called Veg Biryani which was nowhere near biryani flavor nor the ingredients. They had just put random veggies with no flavor at all (no salt nor spice and who adds ivy gourd in biryani). When told about, the one who is supposed to be the manager there, told we cannot satisfy everyone's taste buds and we change according to the locals. Then why the hell you call it an Indian restaurant if you cannot keep your authenticity. Throughout our dinner duration none came to check how everything was, whereas the same person went around where others were seated with all his teeth visible checking how everything was. Such a disgusting attitude which really spoiled our evening. Never going to visit back again nor suggest the place to anyone.
As all other dishes we ordered were good I have given that rating for the food. Learn to treat people equally.

Thanks for your great response. You have mentioned respecting others and the main reason we gave this review was for the same. Not respecting people equally who visited your restaurant. We have visited multiple Indian restaurants in Glasgow and had Veg Biryani as well, but to my surprise never saw Ivy gourd in one. Maybe all other restaurants are yet to diversify.
Also in recent conversations with known circles, we did get to understand that we were not the only ones to be treated with such disrespectful behavior at your restaurant and that says it all...
This is the Best chicken tikka masala i ever had, full of flavours and aroma. The pre theatre menu was of great value. Had chicken sixty-five, chicken tikka masala and a bread at 16.95. The server was very helpful and kept my request of putting some fried onion on top of my curry.
Don’t miss this place if you’re near the central station.
I can only rate food as I ordered to go. The food was not correct. I ordered a chicken dish but received a sweet cheese plate, it was more dessert vs dinner. Half my food was missing and the packing was done so poorly my incorrect food spilled and ruined the correct food in the sweet sauce and a mango sauce. Very disappointed since this was a highly recommended place for the food quality and it’s ability for takeaway.
