We stopped in for the lunch buffet. My wife and I have eaten at many Indian buffets throughout the country. Not being being a vegetarian, I enjoyed all the choices at this vegetarian buffet and did not miss the meat. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The made to order naan and dosas that were included in the buffet were absolutely to die for delicious! The cilantro chutney was also very excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant!

This is the real deal! Authentic in every scense of the word. A jewel tucked away in an unassuming place. Fantastic servive, best food I've had, large selection - buffet style. Definite place to put on my regular places to eat. One of my top ten. Very reasonable in price.

This is the best restaurant in the Dallas area for good vegetarian Indian food !! Good variety of food with live Dosa and Appam counters. Also kind of uncommon and interesting to be serving buffet for both lunch and dinner….

Very happy with the quality and freshness of food, taste of course! So glad to know that Malgudi is back to the originality!
A buffet that runs out of food and then a long wait for refills, long enough to make you lose patience. Very disappointed. People were scraping the bottom of pans to get what they could. 20$/person down the drain for us. Whatever we could eat was good.

I recently visited this restaurant and had a pleasant dining experience. The food was fresh and definitely not stale, which made a big difference in taste and overall enjoyment. Every dish was cooked well and had a balanced flavor profile — not too bland, and not overly spicy — just the right amount of seasoning to suit a normal to medium spice preference. The quality of ingredients was evident, and everything tasted freshly prepared. I’d happily return and recommend it to others looking for good, flavorful food.

I went here Sunday for lunch. They don't have buffet but instead, you get a generous spread (called a thali plate) of what would have been served at the buffet. They seated us apart from the next set of patrons. This was a lot of food and let's be real, it's two meals in one. Whatever you don't finish they allow you to take home. The portion size in the Thali platter was very generous. Those little cups (not that little as it looks) around the biryani was more than enough to satisfy! It also came with naan. What's not shown are extra little cups that contained 2 types of yogurts, two desserts, and a pickled something. Food was heavily seasoned but it did not give me that food coma, but be ready for gas! This is a great value in my opinion for $16. I was told that if I wanted more of something, they would try to accommodate. I didn't get a chance to test their word as it was too much food. If I had two recommendations for this business, it would be to use paper disposable menus and to go easy on the oil on the green beans.
Update: Question for business, what kind of oil do you use in your food?

Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. The food appeared stale and lacked freshness, which really affected the overall dining experience and spoiled our hunger, evening, time of whole family. Unprofessional and dismissive attitude of the manager —quite rude and unwilling to listen to feedback. On a positive note, the rest of the staff were friendly, provided good service. It's unfortunate that the management and food quality didn't reflect the hospitality needed.
