Best Restaurants in San Antonio | Eater Austin

"This Medical Center restaurant isn’t much to look at — the booths are drab, the tables are scratched, and the lighting is out of the Backrooms (for those of y’all familiar with the 4chan thread). But this strip mall mini-chain brings Southern Indian fare (at a shockingly inexpensive price) to the city, where Northern Indian food is generally more widely available. Lunchtime provides the biggest bargain with four choices of thali. Each banana leaf-lined offering includes an assortment of the restaurant’s most assertive tastes, all surrounding a heaping bowl of white rice. Although thalis are available for delivery, the biryanis and Madras curries travel particularly well." - Brandon Watson
