Masala Cafe Indian And Sri Lankan Food Bar&wings in North York

Really small portion. Not worth with the price. And late delivery.

The worst Kothu roti ever, please save your money and go elsewhere only had three pieces of meat.

I tried masala dosa was very good And staff was very nice Recommended dishes

Best restaurant amazing food

Worst service ever

A must visit spot, the taste and the quantity is excellent. We tried biriyani, chicken fried rice and chicken noodles everything was freshly made and the owner was very kind. Only issue is no customers please do come visit.

Best kothu in town all the hundreds of Scarborough kothu spots cant compare to this one hidden gem in the heart of north York!!!

Great to mjngle and a few beers never ate there yet

Highly recommend For Srilankan FRIED RICE and MUTTON KOTTU. If you want to dine in or take-out better you call and let him know because Waiting Time is So long he s only one guy working ( cook and server and cashier). Food is grate, worth it for if you have wait.

chicken fried rice is a must try!!

Great food. Authentic taste. Can work on improving the hygiene.

Even though you pre book the food you want , they will make you to wait more than you expect. Bought chicken noodles and kothuroti , noodles was really terrible, soggy and meat smells stinks ( don t know it s spoiled or not washed properly). At last, the noodles which I bought went to the garbage. Pleasure ensure the food quality before you serve.

Over priced menu. The menu that they have here is 10 years old as they claimed. Don t accept credit and there s a charge on debit for 25 cents. Food quality is okay but the kitchen looks unhygienic.

I m typing this review while I m standing infront of this store . I drove an hour away to come to this location and I get here only to find out that the store is closed from days so and so. Could the owners not update on google or on their website? Beyond disappointed. I don t even think I d give a this place second chance.

Be careful when you order, you will have to wait nearly 1 and half hour even if you order before going. Just want the money just like typical Sri Lankan restaurant. At least place your order when the restaurant open, they shows a busyness where their is none.

Worst place to go i waste my time going there because its saying open on google but they are not it happened with me the other day too I tried to call them to but nobody never answer the call.

Their mixed fried rice is the best! Call ahead and go pick up to give them time to cook.

Good quite bar

Gross quality of food. Owner/cashier is always drunk while working. Tried for the first time and was very disappointed!!

My favorite place. Close to my apartment. Always great service. Best owner. Great music. Recommend for all parties and sports events.

Great food. Definitely call ahead make sure theyre open before visiting if youre trying to get food at off hours

Good food, great taste and awesome service.

Amazing south indian food!! Loved it

Restaurant is closed

Great Sri Lankan food

Food is amazing. Wait time is TERRIBLE!!! I waited for 1 hour to get my food!!! 1 star due to wait time.

Wrong menu prices on the google maps. Always call in and check the for the price before you decided to order or dine in

I ve been looking for a Biryani and finally found this store. I did not hesitate to purchase Chicken Biryani as I think they are expert in making Indian and Sri Lankan cuisine. I was absolutely right! The Chef was amazingly friendly, the food was delicious and the rice that comes with the chicken was a good quality. Can highly recommend this store.

Excellent portions and tastes flavorsome!

Their food is fresh and delicious. They also have a variety of items available. Huge portion size! You might have to wait a bit too long once you order the food but its totally worth waiting.

For being in the predicament in life we are all in...covid...this is one place that will bring a smile to your face when you see and eat the food! Thank you for delicious food and good customer service. this is a must goto destination!! Always my food on time i Oder before I get there it s easy Delicious good portioned food well worth the stop.,..dont pass by! Take care all and be safe

Is ok!

Closed when says open, owner didn t pick up any calls for orders. Quite disappointed to have driven here for 45 mins

Tasty food and good portion size

Spicy food

I have been going here for year... That being said lately the meat portion size is low. Food doesnt taste as good as it used to. Despite that somehow price has gone up LOL look if you want Sri Lankan food and dont want to drive to Scarborough this works other wise go somewhere else for high protein meal.

Foods good, Please, its winter at least turn the heat on, its freezing inside the store.

Noise, Sometimes people fight.

This place is closed at 2pm when I went there yet they say they open at 12:30pm and I called them nobody responded to my call.horrible experience

Good food and they offer takeout

It used to be alot better. It is now cookie cutter, nothing special.

Food is really nice here. It s very flavorful and there s a lot of variety!

Horrible food, Very long waiting time, will not recommend this to anyone.

Cheap food, friendly person, took them 40 mins to get the order ready, half of the menu is sold out and Its super hot inside

We ate dinner recently..such a horrible food ever had.chicken was decayed with full oil soaked kothu roti.this place must be investigated by public health

I ordered Kothu roti and dosa from this place a while back and that was the first and last time i got food from here. I love Indian (esp. South Indian) food and would love to try out from different restaurants around Toronto, this place is pretty close to where I live and wanted to avoid the hassle of going to Scarborough. The food they prepared was not upto the mark, it was too oily filled with extreme amount of masalas (Spices) to my taste. If you dont want to travel to Scarborough or Brampton for a south indian food experience then its okay, but i wouldnt recommend. But the people were nice and welcoming, the restaurant was pretty decent.

Excellent service, and tasty food I really enjoyed the cheese and onion dosa and soup. The owner is very personable, and tries to make his customers happy. Definitely recommend checking Masala out!

Price is affordable...food quality is good...as a conclusion quality is ok for the price paid.

Average food, taking too long to prepare.

Just takes too long to prepare order. After delivering the order, there are missing items

I ordered from here, the order was completely wrong but the food was still pretty good. Hopefully, next time, Ill get what I ordered and itll be even better (:

Food was good, biriyani was not a authentic one. Kothu roti was delicious. Place is small and average. Wash rooms are not maintained that well.

The food is really good

Good service

The chicken was so not fresh. I got stomach flu after eating here. The FOOD IS NOT FRESH .

Ordered through skip the dishes, took 1 hour 32 mins for the food to be delivered. I had Skip call me twice as the restaurant was sold out on ordered items. I had hungry kids and these guys literally tested my patience. I even called the restaurant to check if the pick up times were less that Skip but they hung up on me before I could even talk. The food arrives after 1 hour 32 mins and it s literally the worst food I had in my life. No taste or flavour and it was a waste of $50. Will never order from these guys. Bad prep time, worse customer service and the worst food.

Really good food and great service.. Nice ambiance.

Best srilankan food... anna is very friendly but beware of the wait times !!

Excellent

Great prices - samosas are always good

The roti was great

Food took legit 1 hour to to cook. I ordered Biriyani. Literally had such little meat I wanted to go back to the restaurant and refund it :( I threw away half of the food after eating half because I ran out of meat and eating extra spicy rice without meat is not my kind of thing. Went to sleep hungry The receptionist was nice though. She had good customer service skills and kept going to the kitchen to tell them to hurry up.

Worst kothu roti of the world

Best kothu roti I had in Toronto! Very reasonable prices too

Place was great ... Amazing food

Good place to visit,,,,, thank you

A long time customer! Honestly Decent Ambience. But best taste and Mid Night Hunger Killer ! Chicken #KothuRoti recommended - SPICY

Ambience is. Nothing but food is authentic south indian/sri lankan

You will wait for an hour to get your food. Poor service.

small place but fantastic!

This place was closed the last time I was there during business hours. And they dont answer the phone when you call .

I tried dosa, it was not that good to deserve 4 stars. Reason for this rating is customer service. ..........................................

Good Food, tasty and fast.

We used to visit this place regularly before, missing the delicious Kottu roti

Cozy place and met great peoplw

Customer service at its worst..DON T WASTE YOUR TIME GOING HERE..

The customer service is not good at all dont waste your time going there their so disrespectful.

Every time I have gone here, I have had amazing food, great drinks and wonderful conversations. It s a small place, with a community feel. Unlike larger businesses, the positive to this is that you get personal customer service. I will definitely continue to attend to this location.

Great food, prepared how you want it. Huge portion sizes too! Local hidden gem that I am in love with!

Great food and great prices. Next to laundry, grocery, and so much more. Great place to relax in between errands. Hard to find though, right next to laundry mat

This place serves the best mutton patties. Don t even try their noodles or fried rice it s god damn greasy and just dunked in soy sauce. Their idly and dosa aren t bad but there are occasions where they were extremely salty.

Do yourself a favour and do not come to this place. They dont even serve water to the customers, neither asked for a glass of water. The food was pathetic and burnt... the quantity and quality is not even worth a penny. Nothing about this place is good... highly recommend not to visit this place! Waste of time and super waste of money

Lovely

Its a South Asian restaurant, not an Asian one. That aside this is my go-to place for good south Indian food. I especially love their dosa and kootu paratha. Their noodles are also pretty good - very south indian/Sri Lankan in flavour. The flavours all hit home. They also serve alcohol that attracts seedy crowd. An old couldnt keep his gaze off my friend who was the age of his grand daughter. The service is decent but slow, sometimes too slow to the point that I had leave midway after asking my friend to get the food home. the bartender girl is sweet. they also charge 25-50 cents for debit card transactions and dont accept credit cards.

I ordered delivery of chicken biryani, mutton biryani, chicken kotha, mutton kotha. They made them all spicy for me :) (I highly recommend getting them spicy if you enjoy heat!!) Massive portion sizes, amazingly tasty food, awesome prices! Excellent service as well! My new favourite local restaurant! Thanks!

Mutton rolls are amazing. Wait times can be high especially on nights the restaurant turns into a pseudo night club. One cook works super hard trying to keep up with online orders and restaurant demands

Great place! Food is amazing and their dine in area is well built. Less one star because one time I went,I had to wait 45mins for my food after I ordered. Another time, it came in 10 mins.

Seems oil is being used several time. I got stomach problem. No water provided as theyre selling water in bottles. Very slow in taking order and service.

The place is terrible. a) It is not authentic cuisine and the oil used is of very poor quality. b) Service is bad - the waitress doesnt know the menu items (says I dont know, you are asking the wrong person for some Qs - what!?) and (c) the order waiting time is too long even when they had to serve just one table. After a long wait, they got the order for one person in the table. More wait for others. Sorry - there are better south indian/srilankan places in the city and this is a definite no-go.

The portions here are insanely large. Theres enough food for me to have dinner and lunch the next day. And all of it is for around $10! On top of all that, it tastes pretty good too I usually go when its not busy, so service is pretty quick. Their various samosas are also tasty.

Typical asian bar. Spicy food

Great food at a great price. Try something new that is great

Great food great place great management !

Affordable prices, clean place and better people available .... but experienced greater delay to get the food that we ordered. Dont know wheather they wanted us to order an extra drink...lol

I ordered 1 mutton, 1 chicken biryani and one mutton curry however I received 2 chicken biryani with 1 bone curry. Very unfortunately when I called the manager to share the feedback I asked for his name and he said his name is Mr. Masala and refused to own up to the nonsense mutton curry what they have served and had the audacity to say what ever we have served is awesome and in case we have to share any feedback go ahead and do that with skip the dishes. This is one nonsense restaurant and please do not order from them in case if you value your money. Forget customer service if you have to order from this nonsense Masala cafe.

Too long of a wait for the food and got really sick after. I dont recommend this place.

I love this place. The food is fresh and delicious!!!

I never complain about anything in the service industry, even if it s reasonable to. But half of the time the food shows up not just cooled off, but full-on cold, or some of the ingredients are blatantly no good anymore but they re used anyways. Plus the waiting time seems to be very long compared to other Indian restaurants I have gone to, but who knows what s going on in their kitchen, it s hard to manage that sometimes. I m still giving 4 stars because the amount of food you get for the price is amazing, and when the food DOES come out how it s supposed to, it s delicious.

Worst timings....

Well,good taste but extremely long waiting time.

The portion is plenty. The service is great. And they are nice. The fried rice is one of the best ive tasted. I highly recommend this place. The have a nice bar too.

Ok.

Amazing people, the bartender is AWESOME. Very good interpersonal and customer skills. The cook is also a good guy, good food and amazing atmosphere to be in. I would give this place a 10 star, if it were possible.

Literally one of the best hidden gems in North York, hope you have a giant appetite cus the portions are enormous!

This is the worst restaurant I have ever been to. I have ordered for a plate of Idly and they were like stones. The chutney given was very very cold. Sambar was literally tasteless. The restaurant has charged me CAD $ 8.25 for a single plate of Idly. I strongly dont recommend this place at all.

Really bad food. The chicken curry was basically inedible because of how many little bones were in it. The veg curry was very watery, and the onion dosa had a very strange flavor.

Good food at a very low price. open till late night.

EXCELLENT FOOD. HAVE BEEN ORDERING FOR 3 MONTHS NOW. NO COMPLAINTS.!!

Worst experience. Very slow process took more than an hour for serving the food.(note: last time even take out order took about 45 minutes).

Slow service... But food is good so i dont mind.

Slow service and not a great dine in place but makes decent chicken masala dosa.

Cheap and great Indian food

Not worthy...!! Very slow in processing the order. Wont even give 1 star. Worst part is they dont even give water to drink when u dine there.

A dining in should have drinking water facility but this dining doesnt provide it and cant give a good experience of food

Avoid this place if you can. Ordered food through skip the dishes and it literally took 2 hrs for the food to show up. What was delivered was horribly prepared and was extremely spicy and as an Indian guy when I say extremely spicy, it is quite spicy. Worst of all for a south indian place, they did not have any sambhar left at 8:0pm. Skip the dishes had to to call me back and refund the money for that one dish.

Awsome place

Below average place, Dont even try for south Indian food. Sambhar was not that much good plus they charge almost half price of the Dosa for that Sambhar without taste. I will not recommend this place.

Great Food and Great Prices ! Just missing beer

Really good place for the price. Authentic south Indian snacks and bites for the dosa idli cravings. The sambar is nice and spicy and the dosas are fresh. Great quantity for the price. They need improvement in their seating area, but great place for delivery.

Very slow service .....

Used to be excellent in the past. Now the prices have gone up but the quantity has gone down. Very disappointing.

Be careful and check the bill as they might cheat you with stupid charges you might have not even heard of

Like the dosa , idliyam and chicken biryani (its not the usual biryani as u will find in India but tastes good)

It is pretty hard to find the location, it is hidden at the back of the complex. Food is good, cheap prices and seating area can be made much more brighter but overall for faster service, you can go here.. But idlies are always cold as they make and keep at the beginning I believe so myself and my husband did not feel eating at in backhome in chennai, India and sambar as well as chutney doesnt take in backhome whereas my husband loved egg kothu roti/parotta from here.And I believe this place will be more authentic for Srilankans. .
