Indian Hot Breads | Madras Masala in Connecticut

"Must try for authentic Indian flavours! I have tried other Indian restaurants in CT, and by far this is the closest to Indian taste profile. Perfect balance of flavours, perfect amount of spices, apt quantity! The food is great! Tried their Podi Masala Dosa, Paneer fried rice and paneer puffs! I would love to cover the taste profile individually, but then it’ll be a long post! In short, if you are an Indian, do give this place a try! A non-Indian better be ready for the roller coaster of flavours Also, hospitality by the owner is something you will come back to! P.S. We went back to get more veg and paneer puffs later in the evening"

"Living in Hamden, we have visited Indian Hot Breads probably 5 times since they opened last year. We have always gotten takeout and the food has been accurate and delicious every time! We have been to other Indian restaurants and this one has a wider variety of food so we were able to try a few dishes for the first time. The cashier is always very helpful and friendly. We got married in a small elopement on Tuesday last week and after trying a few slices of different cakes decided to order a mango cake from them. It was so good and they were able to write a message that we wanted on the cake! We will definitely keep going back."

"If you’re craving authentic, crispy, and flavorful dosa, this is the place to go! The dosa was perfectly golden and crisp on the outside, soft inside, and served piping hot. The sambar was rich and flavorful, and the chutneys were fresh and well-balanced. The masala filling was deliciously spiced without being overpowering. Portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh. The service was quick and friendly, and the overall atmosphere was clean and welcoming. Definitely a must-visit for anyone who loves South Indian food. I’ll be coming back again for sure!"

"I met my friend here for lunch. The owner was very kind and attentive. He helped us with the menu; there are tons of delicious options to choose from! I settled on the goat vindaloo with garlic naan and a mango lasse. The food was cooked to perfection and just the right amount of spicy. I left very full and content with my meal, and the fantastic service. I will definitely visit again!"

"The food here has been amazing and it's right up there with the best indian restaraunts in CT. Great curry and dosa.
