    Quite an unexpected menu but the food was dynamite. Portion sizes are comfortable, spice levels are just enough to be tasteful without melting your socks, and the menu is fully gluten free. Pre-theatre menu was a steal for value. Will definitely be back

    Food ok, not as much choice as I would have expected. As with anywhere price of cheap supermarket wine was way too high. Service was pleasant and professional.

    I had a great experience at Madurai Glasgow. Booking a table online was easy, and the service was excellent. The Classic Masala Dosa I ordered was fantastic – perfectly crispy with flavorful chutneys and sambar. Overall, the food and atmosphere were excellent. Highly recommend for authentic South Indian cuisine!

    I am from Madurai, Tamilnadu and the food taste is definitely not anywhere close to food from Tamilnadu. The only place where you need to buy sambar and chutney separately when you buy dosa. Tomato chutney was not even close to a chutney and coconut chutney had the aftertaste which you get when coconut is not fresh. Cold dosa and onion fried rice was called Biryani. Overall super disappointed.
