Mayuri Express, a downtown Houston gem nestled in the Underground, offers a taste of homemade goodness with fresh-baked naan bread and flavorful dishes. Despite the long lines during lunch, the tender and juicy goat and chicken dishes, including the popular goat curry, butter chicken, and crispy dosas, are worth the wait. The quick service ensures customers are in and out without missing a delicious meal.
The butter chicken is creamy and not too spicy, with meat that tears apart easily, paired with perfectly crispy naan. The dhaba chicken, chicken 65, and biryani are also excellent, impressing even the skeptics. Light and crispy dosas come with amazing chutneys, while the goat curry remains a standout. The restaurant gets busy by 11:30 AM, but the efficient service makes it an ideal option for those with short lunch breaks.
Customers praise the restaurant's simple yet satisfying food, with mild spices and great value. The biryani and chicken combo are particularly popular. Suggestions include offering chicken 65 as an appetizer or in a biryani version, as well as improving the goat curry by reducing the number of bones. Despite the limited menu due to the restaurant's short operating hours, the quality and affordability of the dishes make Mayuri Express a favorite among local diners.
