They made me feel genuinely welcomed and went above and beyond to tailor the meal to my preferences.

Rava Masala Dhosai & Masala Dhosai: Crispy, flavorful, and served with a variety of chutneys and sambar that were simply addictive. Fish Curry: Rich, aromatic, and deeply satisfying. The balance of spices and the freshness of the fish were spot-on. What truly set this place apart was the customized attention and care from the chef, who ensured every dish matched our taste preferences. It's rare to see such dedication and pride in delivering a top-notch dining experience.

“A pleasant surprise in Ann Arbor. Madras Masala offers authentic South Indian and Indian cuisine in a clean, comfortable, and welcoming setting.

The staff were courteous and the service was prompt.The food was flavorful, freshly prepared, and reasonably priced for the portion sizes.

A great option for anyone looking for authentic Indian food, especially South Indian specialties, in the Ann Arbor area.“

“We are frequent visitors of the Packard location, even before, when it was at Menyard st, downtown. We love you guys!
However: when ordering takeout: When we order the mild it lacks the flavor punch. But when we order medium it’s on the border of what we can handle heat-spice wise. When ordering takeout there is no other option. And putting it in the comments is hit-or-miss. Would be good if medium actually worked for flavor and a nice bit of heat, that is not on the uncomfortable edge.“

“Definitely my favorite restaurant!“

“JUST EXCELLENT!! Will definitely come again.“

“Absolutely delicious. We are hooked! Find ourselves ordering twice a week. I can't get enough of the tikki masala and garlic naan. Mmmmmmmmm“

“Very tasty“

“The food was absolutely , I could genuinely feel the authentic taste and richness of the dishes. The butter chicken was incredibly flavorful—perfectly cooked with a creamy, well-balanced gravy that had just the right blend of spices. It truly tasted like traditional, homemade butter chicken.
The chicken biryani was equally impressive. The rice was perfectly cooked, aromatic, and infused with spices, while the chicken was tender and juicy. Every bite was full of flavor and felt like a true representation of authentic biryani“

“Such a welcoming environment and amazing food! The cheesecake is a must! Also, the host, I believe his name was Hector, was incredibly charming and funny. I highly recommend!“

“I LOVE this place, I order off of lunch menu almost weekly. Check it out if you are in the area. Poutine and AA roles are both on lunch menu and will change your world.“

“Was craving Indian food today but realized taste of suvai was closed only for today . So I got food another local Indian restaurant.
And it just made me miss taste of suvai
I think the best Indian food in walkable distance from campus.
Fire. Fire. Fire. It’s so good
missing it rn tbh“

“I've never been treated so rude. 1 of the 2 men working COMPLETELY ignored me and took the white guy's order behind me. Only after seating him did he barely acknowledge me and ask if I was Doordash or what I ordered. Mine was online, I drove 20 min out to get there and it still took another 20 min to get my food. I will never spend money here or any other Indian restaurant again. They've ruined it for me. You're just as brown as me and treated me so poorly. Shame on Namaste. I wish I could give it a 0.“

“Great takeout Indian pizzas! We had the Vita and the Forge with paneer on crispy crust. Two 10” pizzas would easily feed 3-4 people. Excellent flavors on both with the right amount of spice. We ordered onsite and the wait was short. The owner and staff were very kind.“
