Reviews for Madras dhaba in Austin, TX
The best thing about Austin is the abundance of food trucks; they usually cater audience with fantastic food sans the decor that... is usually associated with a sit down restaurant. The prices, for the most part, are relatively cheap and the quantity isplentiful. Madras Dhaba delivers on all these aspects. Madras Dhaba, located on the 6th street, occupies a spot among manyother food trucks in a rectangular parking structure-esque area. The menu is front and center and it?s quiet interesting. Forstarters, it has Indian Tacos, which I guess is very popular here. Unfortunately, we didn?t try those (I think this was a bigmiss from my side) instead, we opted for the tried and tested, chicken 65 and paneer tikka masala along with Paratha and Garlicnaan. We got the food to-go, although they have tables there for you to enjoy the food right there. The paratha was a delightand the quantity was abundant. The paneer tikka masala though was on the sweeter side which was a bummer. Everything was pipinghot and fresh and we enjoyed the food. They do food delivery via all the regular delivery services which is a plus for anyonewho wants to enjoy food at their own comfort. MadrasDhaba is an Indian food truck with a variety of options to choose from. Ithas both Vegetarian and meat options along with the usual drinks and deserts that you?d find in a typical Indian establishment.The twist about this place is the availability of Indian styled Tacos which is popular among the folks. This place is worth atry if you?re in the area. Read more
Not that great for the hype. Veg biryani was horrible. Panner Tikka Masala was ok.
Best Indian food in Austin. Anyone giving one star reviews doesn?t have a clue. Owner is super nice, food is perfect every time.... Price is fair and value is there? food is filled to the top of the tub, large portion of rice. Unlike all the other so calledIndian restaurants around town who charge $18 for a dish half full and a spoonful of rice. Won?t name those places. Do yourselfa favor and go here instead you won?t be disappointed. Owner is actually from India so the food is actually authentic. Have toappreciate that in Austin with so many places trying to achieve the flavors this place does so easily. Read more
I'm not one to leave negative reviews but this was a rather underwhelming experience unfortunately - $15 for a lamb curry and... all i received was a container with the curry soup which contained maybe 4, 5 small chunks of lamb (3 oz at most, nothing tosatiate) and a box full of rice. Left hungry still. Too expensive for the small amount of protein I received. Read more
Tried the Channa Masala Tacos and it blew my mind how good it was. The flavor, spice level, and paratha was a great combination... together. Read more

I was not expecting this food to be this good from a food truck. Shows how much I know about Austin. I stopped by this spot... before heading back to El Paso with a group of friends. I ordered the somosa's, chicken tikka masala, and garlic naan. Thesomosa's were the regular potato filled kind and was 2nd only to some I had in Singapore. The chicken tikka masala and basmatirice had a nice spice and incredibly tasty. Some of the best I've had in years. The garlic naan was probably the item that couldhave had the most improvement as it seemed like it wasn't made fresh but it still allowed for good taste. Would definitelyrecommend this spot!
