Madurai Mes - Authentic Indian cuisine

The 22 Best San Antonio Restaurants

"The 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). Who cares? Concentrating on Southern Indian fare instead of the more widely available Northern, the San Antonio location of Madurai Mes saves all its sparkle for the plate. Though always shockingly inexpensive, lunchtime provides the biggest bargain with four choices of thali. The banana leaf-lined offering is an assortment of the restaurant’s most assertive tastes, all surrounding a heaping bowl of white rice. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are third-party deliveries (Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub); there are indoor dine-in services." - Brandon Watson
