Vegetarian Indian restaurant opens second location in Marietta

Madras Mantra, 2179 Lawrenceville Highway, Decatur. “I’d say stick with the flavors as the kitchen suggests them. Order the chole bhatura and you’ll be delivered a large platter bearing two deep-fried bhaturas as fluffy and inflated with air as a pair of balloons. “ – Wyatt Williams
