What Gareth C doesn't like about Cafe Madras London:
25 mile journey to a closed restaurant. Neighboring business says that they have a new owner who is about to re open. He cannot even be bothered to leave a note on the window or even remove the old menu from the previous owners. The website is still active and indicates that they are open. I certainly won't bother to go there again, as they evidently cannot be bothered about inconveniencing customers. Message to new owner Get off your seat and do something about your website and shop window if you really want the business to take off. What bassltd likes about Cafe Madras London:
We had a lovely lunch at the restaurant but were quite upset when an `asian guy came and rudely asked the manager to use the toilet facilities .The manager politely told him that the facilities are for customers only.He threatened the lady that because he was not allowed to use the facilities the latter will report to the council that he saw a rat in the restaurant.We found this disgusting that someone will get that...

It was amazing. I felt like I was back in my hometown, Chennai. Definitely recommend for a second visit.

I went there because of the Tarob V review but regret immediately... poor food, poor hygiene, rude staff, poor atmosphere, not worth the money, waste of time......

Stale food. No Authenticity. A supermarket take-way taste far better than madras cafe's food. Unfriendly staff. I ordered pepper chicken, I can hardly taste pep...

The food was nothing near the taste of southern India, in fact it was rancid and serves burnt and smelled fatal. The manager reported on the burnt food and ever...

We tried the chicken tikka masala and found that it was essentially boiled diced chicken with uncooked sauce. We would not recommend it to anyone.

I only used Cafe Madras for takeout, and the food was delicious and freshly prepared. I highly recommend this restaurant.
