New Madras Tiffin - South Indian restaurant in Kolkata - Kolkata, India

Visited for lunch today...They have varieties of South Indian Dishes..A very good place for South Indian lovers...keep visiting their place because of their authenticity of the recipe and the taste of their dosa and other South Indian dishes.. We only tried with their : Plain Paper Dosa Butter Masala Dosa (so delicious ,fresh & full of Butter) Rose Lassi Kulfi South Indian lovers must visit here...must visit

No real complaints. Popular so cramped at even 16:00. You do not want to be paying while someone is trying to get in or out. Clean and has wall fans. Not the most comfortable seating. Four small tables, five medium. Dhaniya (coriander leaf) special masala dosa huge and tasty. But I found two ingredients in the stuffing odd. Well, new to me. One was a crunchy white vegetable. Turnip? And the green peas were also not 100% cooked. Is that possi le? A nice change for India actually. Soybeans also? Coconut chutney had insufficient black mustard seeds for me. Most sunk to the bottom which I also found odd. And it was thinner than I expected, by about 20%. I made a mistake apparently. I thought I was ordering those crispy deep-fried lentil vadas but got the standard soft ones. I must learn the correct name. Good service. Minimum 300 to use card (posted). Waiter was a bit clingy when it came time to pay (hanging around - clearly waiting for a tip - but he offered the shared tray of mouth-refreshing seeds without a spoon and anyway several persons served me). The manager seemed to be very slightly grumpy that I wanted to pay by card but he did not refuse me. It did take a very long time to process, like two minutes instead of two seconds. 'Slow server' was the excuse. So, all the people are more or less pleasant, the atmosphere is OK, but the food is so-so (acceptable). Best was the sambar (soup). Lots of vegetables in it! INR320 w/ taxes for a South Indian light meal and a snack

I tried the Butter Masala Dosa and dahi vada. The masala dosa was medium sized and the we had asked for a good amount of the aloo masala because they give very little masala otherwise. The dosa was extremely thin and crispy almost like paper. The price of masala dosa was around 140 bucks. The dahi vada was great, 2 big sized vadas with lots of imli chutney. Dahi vada tasted really good. The price of the vadas were 110-120 per plate. Everything about the hotel reminded of a traditional South Indian restaurant. The small seating areas, seats placed close to each other. Very selective menu, the people from south and the taste. It's nice to see a typical South Indian restaurant in the city.

I have tried idli and dhosa, idli was good but special masala dhosa was not that great I will suggest you to have normal masala dhosa.

Don't go there if are looking for a fine dinner. But if you are up for some lip smacking South Indian Veg dishes, then this definitely should be in your bucket list. The service is real quick. This is a very old place. But it is great to see that they are living upto the quality through decades.

New Madras Tiffin is a proper South Indian food shop. I love dhosa in South Indian cuisine and so go here whenever I want to eat good dhosa. The space of this restaurant is very small but no comments about their service. According to the price, the quantity and quality of the food is perfect. Many types of dosa, Dahi bada, Utthapam, Idli, Sambar bada, Upma, Poha, Lassi, Keshar kulfi, Coffee and many more good dishes are available here.

If anyone want to have a good south Indian meal then this is the place. Have been visiting the restaurant for ages now from childhood to adult, and never got disappointed ever.

I visited this restaurant many many times since my childhood. I order butter onion masala dosa, big size dosa stuffed with masala of mash poteto,onion, tasted peanuts, pea and coconut. Taste is awesome as usual.
