Mayuri Express — Restaurant in Houston

From the reviews I've read, this is supposed to be authentic Indian food so I wanted to give it a try. I ordered the Chicken Biryani combo and it came with a side of sauce and yogurt. It was delicious! Another surprise was that it was relatively inexpensive for the amount of food I got. The combo was a total of $8.65 and my styrofoam plate was FULL. Granted it was a lot of rice and a few chicken pieces, but I still couldn't finish my food so I had a little more than half to take home for dinner. The food was very flavorful and it was just the right amount of spiciness for me. I still managed to break a small sweat.

It's located in the tunnels and perfect if you work in the area. Otherwise it wasn't a bad drive for me from the medical center and and I paid $2 for an hour of metered parking on the street.

I'd give them one more star except for the fact that I do wish I had maybe a couple more pieces of chicken and a tad more sauce. I had plenty of rice but not enough chicken to distribute with the amount of rice they give you. I was even digging through my pile of rice hoping there was more chicken. And the Chicken Biryani combo didn't come with Naan so that needed to be ordered separately.

Can't wait to go back and try something else!

NOTE: Get there early (11-11:15) because the line gets long quick, but thankfully the line...

Food is good here. Also its inexpensive.

Its opens only from Monday to Fri and serves from 11 AM to 1 PM or runs out of food due to huge demand by mostly 1.15 PM.

Its very crowded between 12 to 1230 PM each afternoon primarily first half of week due to the office goers taking lunch here.

The food here is popular among both Indian and Americans.

The food is readily available here as its being served from a baneberry while the Naan is being prepared in a clayoven in the background. Service is pretty fast here. Even if there is a long queue, it must take just a few mins for your turn.

They have a descent menu but lacking dishes like malai kofta and chole bhature to name a few. Drinks like buttermilk and Indian deserts like Ras malai is also available here.

Samosas are also available which is a very popular snack around the world.

The price is really cheap and food is good. Although the size of the naan seems to be bit small to some and the quality of the rice may not be that good.

Its really popular for its Dosas and the butterchicken to name a few. This place is suitbale for office goers who want to take lunch in the downtown as it is located nearby most of the offices and is accessible thorugh the tunnel system.

I would recommend this place if you prefer Indian food.

This is the...

I went there with loads of expectations after I read reviews. Not sure how it worked out for non vegetarians, but it’s not really a place for South Indian vegetarian food. We tried veg briyani and masala dosa. Neither the dosa nor the veg briyani impressed me. The dosa masala wasn’t done. The potato was little uncooked and raw, dosa has a hint of sour taste, but matched as Sambar lacked tamrind. And sambar tasted like veggie rasam. The two stars are because of the ginger chutney. And nothing else. The same happened with briyani. The veggies were so raw and uncooked. I m sure that the dish would have been much better if they spend some more time in cooking the veggies and spice it up. Prices are nominal but they aren’t worth paying for uncooked veggies with the raw...
