A Solo Diner's Nightmare at Madras Masala and Grill

I visited Madras Masala and Grill in Kamloops on Friday, July 5, 2024, around 8:30 PM. Upon arrival, the beautiful girl at the cash till asked about the number of people dining in. When I mentioned it was just me, she instructed me to wait for 5 minutes. Thirty-five minutes later, still no table.

During my wait, I noticed a flurry of mobile orders being accepted. After 25 minutes, a party of six arrived and was seated promptly by another employee, who seemed unaware of my existence. He was preoccupied with attending calls and arranging deliveries. Despite available tables for four and six people, I was continually overlooked at Madras Masala and Grill.

Finally, I politely explained my situation to the busy employee and left Madras Masala and Grill. Starving and frustrated, I headed to The Coconut - Finest South Indian Cuisine nearby, where I was seated within 2 minutes despite their busyness. The food there—Badam milk, Veg Fried Rice, Cauliflower Manchurian, and Sambar Vada—was absolutely delicious.

I’m actually glad Madras Masala and Grill gave me the opportunity to discover The Coconut - Finest South Indian Cuisine. If you’re dining solo and enjoy being ignored, Madras Masala and Grill is the place for you. Otherwise, save yourself the hassle and head straight to The Coconut - Finest South Indian Cuisine.

PLEASE DO NOT SAY THAT SHE FORGOT ABOUT ME, OR DID NOT SEE ME WAITING !!!!!!!!!!

The first time when I went to Madras Masala as a new student here in Kamloops, I didn't have much expectation as I thought it would be like the usual Indian restaurant in a western country, but they proved it all wrong, and now it has become one of my favourite to go places in Kamloops whenever I miss India. The friendly and courteous staff who provides great services and will keenly listen to your food customisations, allergies, and levels of spiciness while taking the order. Above all, the main chefs there, who are also the people who own the restaurant, are very passionate about Indian food and cooking, and they do it with love and ensure to give a treat to our taste buds with their variety of dishes and spices that are authentic Indian style. Adding to it all, the ambience of the place is also very good, like the Indian song in the background, which makes you feel like you are in India. When it comes to food, each and every item that I have tried in Madras Masala and grill had never disappointed me and has proved to be worth every penny. I'm adding pictures from my last visit, when I had paneer kulcha, with it’s soft texture and ample amount of stuffing it is a must try. And don't forget to try their chefs special South Indian dishes (Briyani, Madurai style kothu parotta) which are served in adequate quantity as well. P.S thank me later for suggesting one of the best Indian...
