Madras Cafe — Restaurant in Calgary

In an ever changing world it’s refreshing to see somethings still remain consistent. Decided to go with a friend who has never really had curries or Indian food to any great degree before, and wanted them to experience a variety at a decent price. The menu is not overly extensive and the pictures certainly help one to make a decision about the food. Not surprised they have got rid of the buffet. Have to say the staff was good at making a recommendation or two for them and we ordered a variety including Chilli Paneer (they thought it was tofu) Masala Vada, Chicken Mughlai (aromatic and sweet), Mutton Madras curry (spicy deliciousness) and Egg Masala Rava (to eat with hands). The Paratha was golden light and fluffy, lightly seasoned and soon vanished. Am sure we had a couple more things too… The service was a little hit and miss as we did not get the yoghurt that we ordered, but it was quickly removed from the bill without any fuss. Happy to see they are opening a 2nd location soon and look forward to going to try that out… Question? To return….absolutely this time before another 2 years have passed…Lots of food...

Visited for a diner with family. Two adults and two 6 year olds. Gave my phone number and Waited outside for 20 mins for his call till a table cleared.

Went in and ordered Combo2 and Mysore Masala. After finishing it we ordered Veg Chettinad Cury with two parathas. Kids were hungy still so my wife called the waiter/owner/cleaner/cashier to ordee a Ghee roast paper dosa. The guy probably mentally  instable started blasting at my wife that we should order food at once, eat and vacate table. He blamed us for he loosing three tables. We were in there for about 45 mins and  racked up a $50 tab.

This guys frustrated with current situations taking it out his customers. Such a petty guy that he thinks that he could earn more money by kicking  customers out. He most likely discriminated us as he knew that we are from Edmonton from my phone. When I told him in polite tone thats not the way you talk to customer and I am not happy he said exact word "I do not care. I lost three tables. I dont need your bussiness."

So if you want to get treated like shit after paying for food. There no place like...
