These guys are AWESOME and the food is AMAZINGGG!…read more Ok, now on to the details. We are in the area, trying to figure out where to eat that would be quick & tasty. Bombay pops up, is highly rated, and is just about a mile and a half away from where we were. We pull up, go in, and it's clean, cozy & bright. The servers are really kind. My friend's young daughter is trying to do vegan, and my friend has a tree nut allergy AND eats gluten-free, and they can accommodate ALL OF THAT! Yay! This is one of the best menus I've seen in the United States for Desi food, and true to Orlando style, they also have some "asian" dishes / cool combos of Chinese & Indian on the menu. I have never seen so many restaurants with two/hybrid/fusion menus as I have in Orlando! We got Hakka Noodles, Pani Puri, Masala Dosa, Palak Paneer & Chai. Pani Puri came assembled already and in a cute little wagon. Everything tasted amazing!! Tasted fresh-made with fresh ground spices & tasty ingredients. It was very reasonably priced, and the food came out fast. We didn't finish it all & they were prompt with the to go containers. Definitely going back. Thanks you guys!

We were greeted quickly and our server was friendly and attentive. The food is an experience....full of vibrant color, fresh ingredients and tons of flavors.

My parents and I went again for the lunch buffet. We got so lucky to find a seat near the buffet…read morearea immediately upon arriving. Grabbed some chaat and vegetable pakora for appetizer. The pakora was fried perfectly and had the right amount of spices, making it so flavorful and addicting that my mom enjoyed it so much. The meat area had Chicken Tikka Masala, Cashew Chicken, Goat Biryani, and Tandoori Chicken. All were wonderful. The biryani had nice pieces of goat, but most of them had bones. The the goat was tender and flavorful from being with the bones. The cashew chicken was good, but also had bones. The chicken tikka was boneless and the chicken was soft. The sauces were flavorful and medium spiced. The tandoori chicken was cooked nicely, but you did need a knife and fork to cut it. For the vegetarian dishes, the okra and potato were both enjoyable. The paneer dish was a bit too sweet for me, and the vegetable biryani seemed to have golden raisins, which I didn't enjoy. For dessert, I just took the fruit custard, which was mostly just fruit in a mango milk/sauce. It was still delicious! We all agreed that the food was great here for the buffet! The service is good, but can be busy. While our plates got cleared for the first rounds, it did pile up during the second round and dessert. It didn't get cleared until we left. It was ok because we had enough space to eat anyways. I also noticed that relaxing piano music was in the background, so it does help calm the atmosphere in a tourist area. The price increased to about 20 dollars per person, but this is still a great deal. With various types of food to enjoy and unlimited portions til your stuffed, it's an excellent value. It's our preferred restaurant for Indian lunch buffet in the I-Drive area. Overall: A-

We were seated right away, and the staff was very friendly, which made for a welcoming start. They…read morehave a clear vegetarian section, and vegan and gluten-free menus are available upon request. The naan was fresh and fluffy. The cheese naan is unlike any paneer naan we have tried before--almost like a cheesy quesadilla. They didn't have Aloo Choley listed, but when we asked, the kitchen put together a version with chickpeas and potatoes that turned out delicious. We ordered the Dal Maharani, and while our waitress asked about spice level, it felt like she made the decision for us. We enjoy spice, but even the first bite was hotter than we expected, and we barely ate any of it despite it being otherwise flavorful. Toward the end, our waitress asked us to leave a review... and then stood there waiting. When my husband said we were still chatting, she kept circling back to check, which felt pretty pushy. Later, when we requested to-go boxes, she said "there is no rush" and then disappeared. We had to ask again. Overall, the food is good and the staff is mostly friendly, but the unexpectedly fiery dal and the slightly overzealous service kept this from being a 5-star experience.

Dining at Madras Cafe is truly a comforting dive into authentic South Indian flavors, especially if…read moreyou're in the mood for a proper, satisfying meal. We went for the Thali, and it arrived like a feast--beautifully presented with a wide variety of dishes that felt both generous and thoughtfully prepared. The portions are no joke here; it's the kind of meal that keeps you going back for "just one more bite." What's even better is that they're happy to offer additional servings if you're still hungry, which makes the experience feel warm and hospitable rather than transactional. Flavor-wise, the food really shines. Each component of the Thali carries its own personality--rich, aromatic, and rooted in tradition. You can tell the kitchen isn't cutting corners when it comes to spices and authenticity. That said, a few items leaned a bit on the salty side for my taste. It didn't take away from the overall enjoyment, but it was noticeable enough to stand out among otherwise well-balanced dishes. All in all, it's a place that delivers on both quantity and authenticity. If you're craving a hearty South Indian meal that feels close to home-style cooking, Madras Cafe is definitely worth the visit. Come hungry--you'll need the appetite.

It's so delicious I forgot to take photos of my meal, which was the Szechuan Dosa, very tasty! I did remember to get a pic of the second order of garlic naan. We found this place a few years ago and always make it a point to come back. We enjoy trying different things, and so far it is all a great experience.

5 stars is NOT enough for this Indian Restaurant!!!…read more In business for 38 years, I can honestly say I've never had a better serving of Tikka Masala in my entire life. Absolutely delicious and anytime I plan on being back in Orlando on International Drive I'm going to plan on returning here. Fun fact: many Indian restaurants shut down from 2:30 - 5pm daily. New Punjab does NOT do this, and is why I even stopped in here. Nicely done New Punjab!

What each option was. There is also a variety of Thai Indian and Chinese food at the restaurant. We stuck to Indiana because that's what we wanted to try and I can't confidently say I will be going back. Everything was fresh and extremely flavorful and if you are not into super spicy food, this is a perfect place to try and get food. Popular sauces are mango chutney, and tamarind. The mango lassi was perfect... all in all I can't wait to go back.

The entrance door is surrounded by black granite.The dining room is very bright with white granite walls, dark wood floors and white terrazzo table tops. Our server was Ayu. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They have a full bar and nice wine list. The restrooms are located just outside the restaurant in the hotel lobby. Restrooms are also brightly lit with white marble look tiles. We started simply with a garlic naan and a rosemary naan. I ordered Lamb Seekh kebabs. Light and flavorful basmati rice with peas. The lamb is minced and grilled. Served on a sizzling platter (fajita style). with Minced Lamb Seasoned with Fresh Mint, Cilantro, Ginger, Green Chili and Onions There is a generous portion of lamb. A togo box was needed. One opportunity for improvement was having to ask for a refill of my lemonade. There is a weekday lunch special available as well as well as a weekend Thali Menu (served on a platter). It also looks like Tabla is participating in 2026 Orlando Magical Dining.
