Really great flavor, but not consistent. I will order the same thing and it always tastes a little different. Also the portions are small for the pricing. We do like the flavor and quality, as well as the friendly staff. read more

This is our first time trying Mayuri and it exceed our expectation. Their serves is fast, they wrap your Togo very neatly and secure, and they're very friendly. We usually go to kebab corner but the food here is way better. Their chicken biryani is so tasty, lotssssss of meat in the portion. Their pricing is also very reasonable cheaper than kebab corner. We order an entree of goat and chicken that come with 4 naan and rice (large enough portion for 2-3), one order of chicken biryani with lots of chicken in it, one order of garlic ban that come with yogurt dipping and curry dipping alll this for for 21 bucks!!! So cheap and lots of food. We will surely be your new reg from now on. read more

The food here is excellent! Best Indian takeout I've had in a long time. If you enjoy spicy foods then this is the place. You can tell them the level of spiciness you prefer and they will accommodate you. It's best to order takeout in advance vs dining in as there is a constant stream of customers and delivery drivers while you wait. read more

Surprisingly delicious love the veggie samosas (we ordered these twice, lol) and the chicken tikka masala. The rice (ordered extra as well) is divine. Will definitely be back! read more

If you're looking for great tasting Indian food that you can grab and go, Mayuri is the spot. They have a wide assortment of favorites and really quick service. Be sure to confirm their hours because they are closed for a period of time between lunch and dinner. The prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly. Definitely worth the trip read more

See pic below so I don't have to rewrite. Great food but terrible to go service. The same exact terrible to go service twice now. read more

Located between KFC & Subway the food is amazing. Get up and go try it. Incredible. Try the curd rice mixed with tikka masala sauce. Chicken saag with plain rice and butter chicken straight up. The chicken manchurian will burn you're tongue into submission, buy it, consume it and try to not share your experience...you can't. read more

Terrible food! I will never eat there again. Their food is very very salty. I do not recommend this restaurant at all.

Good authentic Indian food, but consistency could be improved. Something that tastes great on a day turned out to be just about okay on another day (happened couple times) That said, it's better than any other Indian restaurants in the area. read more

Amazing food. For Indian Food the pricing is relatively low. It has a very small "mom and pop" and "no frills" feel to it. So there's that, but great food is what I came her for and great food is what I got. It definitely exceeded my expectations. Never judge a book by its cover! read more

Simple dine in place that has delicious menu. Prices are great while portions are good for two. read more

The food is always incredibly delicious and fresh, this is one of our favorite spots! We swear by the Dhaba Chicken.

***Disclaimer*** I came for lunch and did not know what to expect as far as the options were concerned. Food: So during lunch there really is no freedom in what you can order. I thought that since this wasn't a buffet, there would be no hot lamps in sight. Wrong! They basically serve lunch cafeteria style. The kicker is that they may or may not have some of the most popular Indian dishes on the menu. I really just wanted Malai Kofta, but of course that was not on the list of available veggie options. Without malai kofta, then I just want the classic Chicken Tikka Masala... Of course this was not an option. I ended with the Butter Chicken(3/5): ehh not at all spicy but the chicken was nice and tender. I also had the curried eggplant (not sure of the actual name) but this was an interesting first try. Probably my last try... but iteresting nonetheless. The eggplant was a bit mushy for my taste. The curry on this was really delicious though. Ambience: Also not a feat by any means. The guy working the counter just stared through my soul until I made a decision on the limited items they had available. Another man in the kitchen also stared through my soul... from the kitchen! If I return to this spot it will definitely be for dinner when I can choose exactly what I want and have it made to order. The lunch price is cheap but not necessarily worth the lackluster flavor. read more

Want to eat some good Indian food and do not fancy for a fancy place, this is for you. The food is value for money. There is no table waiting here. So, decide what you want to eat, grab it, find a spot to sit and enjoy your food. Their chicken biryani is quite good of the ones in this region of town. The vegetable noodles is very nice. read more

Found a small cockroach in the rice today. Called and told them. They argued for some reason. Really disgusting.

The worst customer service. They trying to cheat tax, so they don't want to give your receipt. They charge 50% for using debit or credit. I would never recommend this. read more

Ordered food online. The food tasted very bad. Ordered Navrathan Kurma, veg pulav, naan and goat biryani. Except biryani and naan everything tasted terrible. read more

5 stars for this place! The interior decor and ambiance are minimal, but who cares! The food is amazing! The prices are very low for what you get. I guess since they didn't spend a bunch of money on the restaurants decorations they can pass the savings on. I usually order to go and get the naan bread and tiki masala or butter chicken. Amazing! read more

I am very white, but I love Indian food! My mom and,i stopped in for lunch, and we were blown away. The restaurant is very casual, it's a great place to stop for lunch. The staff were so friendly and very helpful to a newbie like me at explaining the menu. I had a lunch combo with butter chicken with jeera rice and the spinach lentil curry. My mom had the dumka chicken. It was so good. You can tell this food was made with love. Also, heed their spicy warnings. Some of their food will kick your butt. Will be back. read more

Pretty good indian in NW Houston with decent prices too. I havent been to the original to say which location is better but for a 2nd location, I'd say it was pretty good. One of my only complaints is that the atmosphere is fairly uninviting to sit and have a nice meal. I dined in, but saw many people come and order take out or pick up. Also, the menu for a meat eater is pretty limited. You have mostly all chicken dishes and 1 goat dish. I ordered the goat curry and butter chicken and preferred the goat, even if it was a little chewy. The butter chicken was great too though. read more

Since i did not plan for dinner AND i was craving Indian food so here i went Hmm how can i explain this A. Full of indians. Great sign B. Smelled great So got my to go and went In my kitchen i started eating the flavor was incredible As a matter of fact there is about twenty minutes of time i cannot account for But what i can tell u is it was not alien abduction I saw visions of indian hindu god Someone told me to go back This is the best indian food I've ever had read more

I've always loved Mayuri at Westheimer, but now I've got the Express version right by me!! The food is great and well proportioned, the Resturant is neat, and the staff is very nice! They have daily specials and the idly was delicious! It is all Hyderabadi food! Haven't tried the dosas (crepes) yet, but am looking forward to it! Oh, and do try the Carrot Halwa (sweet)! Look out North side! We've got more South Indian food!! read more

What a horrible Indian Food. This is my first restaurant review. I generally keep quiet if I don't like the food. But today after taking the carry out I can't help myself in keeping my frustration and anger. One word, horrible food. you feel sorry for yourself you ate all that empty/tasteless calories read more

A terrible place for Indian food.. Don't bother reading the menu because they will only serve what's on the counter trays. Unhygienic and poor customer service won't help either. The taste was poor my first time and i wanted to give it a second shot when the roaches on the food counter drove me out to a nearby subway read more

Authentic Indian food flavors, wish the quality of food and customer service improved. Mostly a quick eat and go place. I have tried this place more than a couple of times and every time they lacked in food quality and/or customer service. Chicken 65 was average tasting, I seriously doubt if it was made fresh though. Apollo Fish was bland, even the fried batter didn't give it any taste! Chicken Biryani was extra spicy and the salan that comes with the biryani was bland. And stay away from Sezchuan vegetables!! They gave us a stomach ache! Their idli and sambhar with chutneys used to be better tasting, unfortunately that has worsened as well. Their customer service needs a lot of improvement too. On one instance, the lady at the counter was extremely rude to us. She was ready to take the order of the person behind us without offering to talk to us or explain why. There are better places to experience good quality Indian food. read more

Delicious! It has a very humble feel, with a kind of cafeteria style where you can pick one or two things, and get rice, and four pieces of Naan. Food was delicious and spicier than the typical bland Indian buffets. Update It's been a little while since I went last and boy howdy this place is even better. they expanded the menu and hours and now I want to eat here all the time. Everything is delicious. read more

Great flavors and great spice! We did takeout via Grubhub and no issues at all. Ordered the chicken tikka masala, lamb vindaloo and palak paneer - all extra spicy! The garlic naan was delish. It was all so good, we ordered again for a large group. Added in the chicken biryani, chole, samosas and chicken kadai. Best Indian takeout in the area for sure! read more

Oh so yummy! I have been very pleased with everything we have gotten from here. I do wish the descriptions of what is in the dish was listed on the menus . The employee was gracious enough to help pick something all the same. I truly can't wait to visit again for my Indian surprise dinner or lunch. Wow! So NOT suggesting anyone that is not familiar with the menus to EVER go in the evening. It had been a bit since I last came and I normally go earlier. The evening staff IS NOT HELPFUL . I asked for the dish with chickpeas , I got tofu . There are no dish descriptions anywhere ! Do not go !!!! read more

Delicious food, ready quickly. Chicken Tikka Masala was especially great. Lucky fine, and surprised that other Indian restaurants that I've tried have higher ratings. This is the best Indian food I've had in a long time read more

Food: Good Everything else: Disgusting Their food is okay. Not the best that I have had but what ticks me the most is how much waste and trash this restaurant is producing. Instead of using reusable plates they are serving food in Styrofoam plates with plastic cutlery. I care really deeply about our planet and this is terrible practice. Plus, on top of that, their soda machine is disgusting. The drinks started dispenses is either hot or mixed with water. We tried to get out some Fanta and instead we got some terrible version of Fanta which looked like it has been there forever. The naan that they gave me was rock hard and felt like papad. fortunately, the staff was friendly enough to take it back and give us some better version of it. But overall, just looking at how they have managed the place, I don't think that I am going back there. PS. Please clean your floors, they make that wierd sticky noise when you walk. read more

Really wanted good Indian food nearby... ordered takeout and food was cold and runny. Not horrible, but not great. Place is dirty inside so I'd avoid eating in. read more

Good food, naan is great (garlic) and samosas also good. Carry out was wonderful. Been there once or twice and will go back again for more.

My favorite place, great food and reasonable priced. I come here for the food; naan, buttered chicken, Biryani, etc...

Excellent Food. Prepared to perfection! I was forced to come in here by my sister & niece. I do not like Indian food. The only type of food I don't usually care for. My sister ordered for me & she ordered like 5 different dishes. They were all great! We decided to go back once a month the 3 of us!!! read more

A month ago, I was in a nearby motel craving for Indian food and nearly getting the jitters from hunger (Had to work all morning and afternoon nonstop.) Seeing this place was convenient and with one of the better reviews, I decided to order takeout. I went through their online menu and was disappointed descriptions of food items are not included; they are nice to have for those exposed to but not comfortably acquainted with Indian cuisine. So, I used the web for the tedious task of telling me what two-thirds of the items on the menu is. Ultimately, I ordered the kadai paneer, with request for it prepared "extra spicy", and plain naan. Boy, did they deliver on the "extra spicy" part - and I say that with delight. Being Thai, I know a thing or two about spicy food. It always disappoints me when I go to other restaurants where the definition of "extra spicy" is child's play. The food was piping hot (regardless, I microwaved the food when I got back to the motel), the flavors were fantastically savory, and everything was securely and nicely wrapped for takeout. This is true: I couldn't stop thinking about the place for an entire month after my first visit. Though what I say has been good so far, there were some disappointments: (1) The food was salty. I forgive them as the rice reduced the saltiness some, and, again, aside from the saltiness, the flavors were delectable. (2) Utensils and napkins were not packed with my takeout. (My motel had not a cafeteria for me steal eating utensils; so, I used a plastic fork I found in my glove compartment and some toilet paper with my meal.) I suppose it was my fault for not checking and asking for some. I've been too spoiled with takeout orders from other restaurants, I guess. (3) When the door to the kitchen opened, I saw a person in the back unmasked and without gloves and preparing food. This is not the first restaurant I've seen with people in the kitchen lacking proper PPE's. I take extra precaution when I order food from such places - I'd go home and reheat my takeout. I care not if people think I'm overreacting, but I'm willing to do whatever I can to keep my family and I safe. I was in the area recently and indulged in a second visit to Mayuri. I told myself the saltiness from my last visit was likely atypical of the place, and that everything else would be perfect (except, maybe, the people in the kitchen not wearing PPE's - that can't be helped sometimes). Once more, I ordered the kadai paneer - extra spicy - and naan. The food had just the right amount of salt; and the flavor was good, though not as savory as the last. The "extra spicy" part was a disappointingly missed. It wasn't even close to eating something as "spicy" as Hot Cheetos. I requested for utensils but received none. I cannot say I won't ever visit this place again, but I'm certainly not missing Mayuri right now. I do believe this restaurant has good days when all goes perfect, but it hasn't worked out for me, yet. read more

My wife and I have been ordering from here for a year now and have tried 80% of the menu and we plan to try everything, we didn't know what to get the first time so we ordered chicken 65 and picked two more random dishes and we loved all of them so much we decided to try more the next time. So far we not had anything we wouldn't order again. Their biryanis are great, their drums of heaven are heavenly, their goat vindaloo is delicious and their andhra chicken was amazing. We can't wait to try the rest. Their food is always well packed we haven't had a spill yet. Looking forward to trying the rest. read more

Wedding catering review: We catered from them for our 3 day Indian wedding. First off, communication - most vendors (especially for Indian catering) weren't the most responsive when we reached out and did the tastings or with follow-ups after. Mayuri was always prompt, made time to meet us at our convenience and overall they were very professional. We had to add in an additional day of catering a couple of weeks before as well, and they jumped on it to help us out in a time crunch. Secondly, the food - one month later and our guests are still raving about the food. The variety and flavor of each dish was unparalleled. They even had a live tandoor at our reception for fresh naan and chicken tikka. As a side note, if one of the items needs some doctoring in your opinion, they make notes and tailor it accordingly too! Thirdly, the service - they met with us multiple times, visited the venue to ensure they had an appropriate idea of the amenities available, gave us suggestions on dishes to select, and were personally there to supervise the service. The managers Charanjit and Chenna Reddy did a great job and we are so grateful for their service. By far, the best vendor at our wedding! Lastly, the pricing - very reasonable as weddings can get expensive and for the service received, I would highly recommend them for any catering events! Thank you Mayuri and Charanjit/Chenna Reddy read more

Doesn't fell like a restaurant, environment atmosphere is like a fast food store, people serving from behind the counter, & doesn't look clean, well shaped nor does it look like they prepare the food hygienicaly. Some of the dishes even had meat material in the vegetarian dishes. Saw a employee who didn't have his nails cut, not his hands washed. Don't really understand which part of India they represent, & the worst part is that they can't even communicate properly with their customers. I'd recommend Pizza Hut/Wendy's rather than this. Absolutely disappointed... read more
