Amazing - Edit
The best veg Indian food in Orlando hands down. I find myself craving Madras every now and then, I am never ever disappointed when i visit. The staff is accommodating and vegan options are clearly marked.

Top Indian food - Edit
Fully veggie menu with so many vegan options. Whilst gluten free wasn't labelled, the staff were very clued up on this and were able to identify which items could be gluten free (and it was a fair few!). Portions were very decent and incredibly filling. And staff were really lovely. Great restaurant.

Very tasty food! - Edit
We went late at night around 9 and it took a while until we could sit down but that’s because it was very packed. It was well worth the wait because all of the food was delicious. Almost every dish can be made vegan. I’m pretty sure all of the curries are gf by default (double check) or can be made gf and there are other dishes that are gf.
Read morePros: Tasty food, Wide selection , Several gf options
Cons: Long wait time for dinner

Amazing Vegan Meals! The best Indian I've had! - Edit
By far the best Indian I've ever had! Full of flavor and well prepared. Fernandez took excellent care of us. He was attentive and offered great suggestions for us being vagan. Every table was full and I understand why. The food was delicious. We had the Sambar and Rasam soups, plus Assorted Appetizers to start. For meals, we enjoyed the Kadai Paneer, which was rich and savory. The Palak Paneer was also delicious. I would absolutely recommend Madras Cafe and will return on our next visit to Orlando. Bonus for offering vegan options! Great meal. Great restaurant.

Great food - Edit
I love this pace, the Gobi Manchurian is amazing, the Aloo Gobi is amazing, the Chana Masala is amazing. I love the Dosa, I love the Naan. Sometimes I just sit back and think about how good this food is.

Vegan food everywhere! - Edit
Fantastic restaurant with a huge variety of vegan food. Staff were lovely and menu was extensive with most dishes able to be vegan. Hot and sour soup was phenomenal! Will be back.
Read moreWent back 3 days later for buffet lunch $17 and was amazing. Loads of small tapas dishes brought to you with 2 rice and breads. Great selection and more bread brought out when needed. Tell them your vegan and it’s all made fresh. Huge tray and food was amazing!

FANTASTIC!!!! - Edit
Everything we had was delicious. Reagan was our server and he tended to us very well. There were a plethora of options. Everything we ordered was vegan. We ordered Vegetable Samosas, Garlic Naan, Mysore Masala Dosai, Malai Kofta and Vegetable Korma. The flavors were deeply delicious. We particularly loved the Malai Kofta. The Korma has a subtle, mild flavor. The Masala Dosai with chutney was fabulous. This review may sound over the top but it is seriously that good. The atmosphere is really pleasant. Across the board, a 5-star experience!

Overrated - Ruined Vegan Meal - Long Wait - Edit
Online ordering wouldn't allow us to order, we called, on hold for 15 minutes, so we drove there and ordered in person. Told it would be 45-60minutes, I was ok with that. I tipped $5 on my to go order in advance. We went to Barnes and Noble to kill some time. I came back and waited at the bar for my order. And waited, and waited. People who were dining in who were just being seated when I ordered were already leaving. I asked how much longer for my food. One person said "not much longer" but never went in the kitchen to check. Another person asked me what I was waiting for, he went and told the first guy and came back and told me the same thing. Again, no one checked in the kitchen. After more waiting the first guy goes in the kitchen and comes back with my food over 1.5 hours after I ordered it! Said they were busy, but come back tomorrow and it will be better. No utensils in bag. We decide to all have a piece of naan before leaving, it's all cold!!!!!!! My food must have been sitting there the entire time. When we get back to our hotel room they barely gave us enough rice for my 2 kids let alone for the 4 meals I ordered. The food was eh.... And wait for it.... The meal that was supposed to be TOFU had CHEESE in it!!!!!! Not Vegan as ordered.
Read moreI'd give it 1 star but Happy Cow won't let me.
Pros: Vegan options are labeled - supposedly, It is at least a vegetarian place, No meat
Cons: Expensive , LONG WAITS, more than double what they tell you, Put cheese in a vegan meal

They served me paneer when I ordered tofu - Edit
I ordered a tofu curry and they gave me a paneer curry. I was really disappointed in this place because the menu and the reviews were amazing. I also ordered the pakora and it was not good. It was undercooked and not crispy.

Pure Veg Indian Restaurant - Edit
We showed up and there was a large crowd outside, so it was a good sign ! Beware on maps it says Vegan but it is a vegetarian restaurant. Just be sure to tell the server to prepare all items vegan. We ordered the garlic Naan, tofu Manchurian, and tofu chili. They say dry but it just means it's not as gravy like as a dal or curry. I would say the best was the tofu Manchurian. The garlic Naan made us feel very bloated but it was good. I'd go back!
Read morePros: Lots of marked vegan options, Staff is knowledgeable about veganism
Cons: Long wait , Floated feeling after eating Naan
