Madras Mantra Decatur

"First things first: most of Ala Carte items ( Dosas, etc.) are BIG in size. You get 3 sambar vadas in one plate. So ask before you order so that you don't order too much. Review of Buffet: good number of items. Starters are typical fryums, vadas etc. Two or three curries, rice varieties. Mini puris and uthappams. One thing they have to improve is replenishment of items, few times we had to wait. You pay first and then go for Buffet. Weekdays you save few $ on price. Don't miss taking a vada and dipping in a sambar bowl and relishing it. It tastes so great. Non Buffet: service is quick. Taste is good. Twice I felt the Potato curry in Dosa is not upto the mark (it tasted and smelled bit older). Restrooms are clean. I recommend the Rasam - it's apt spicy. Quantity is also good - 2 to 3 people can gulp a little. But it should be bit more hotter on temperature."

"Exceptional food and service !! We ordered a multitude of different dishes and everything was flavored exceptionally and presented very well. Highly recommend this establishment for anyone looking for not only great vegetarian/ vegan options but very good Indian cuisine. Loved it and will definitely return whenever I’m back in town."

"Authentic South Indian food.... the best we have found in Atlanta during our various trips from India. All variations in Dosa were good ... .my wife specifically liked Rava Dosa. The size of dosa, as per Indian standards, is pretty large..... order accordingly. Would love to visit again"

"very very small variety of food for it to be called a buffet. I enjoyed having tastes of other cultures, but this is average or even below. the servers were respectful and gave us better drinks. the water is definitely fishy though. tastes odd.. for the lunch buffet, it was around $13 per person."
