It is very much near the railway station but certainly not the best. Nearby sabarish restaurent is the best in the area and is always crowded. Apart from anna meenakshi there are umpteen choices nearby if you walk around town hall road and bus stand area. Aarthi, vasantham, ashok bhawan, k.p.s restaurent, punjabi dhaba in town hall road, roof top... More

A typical south Indian meals and tiffin joint but with a long menu outside 'meals' time. The staff are friendly and helpful and used to dealing with foreigners. I never ate their 'meals', a shame really as I love the combination of flavours in their rice plate. But the tiffin was good though their north Indian dishes are over spicy.... More

This restaurant is good for vegetarians, though it servers only south indian dishes, but it is very clean, simple, sober and economical restaurant in madurai. You can have Idli, samber, dosa, tea, coffee here in very reasonable rates. Hotel remains open till 11:30 PM in night. More

We had read the reviews here so were a bit shocked at the local dominated clientele, but gave it a try. Our first trip was at lunch time so the dosas were not available, but the 2 dishes we did have were delicious. We also had a dinner there and I had the special ghee masala dosa.....simply gorgeous!! Take along... More

We ate here twice during our very short stay in Madurai. The staff were very helpful and friendly, explaining every item in our meal/thali and how to eat it! The banana leaf thali was excellent, especially enjoyed the vada which came with - best I've had in India. Not a bad price either - 45 rupees each. We also ordered... More

Madurai doesn't have a lot of great places for tourists to eat. This is an exception, and has a great selection of local foods, and appears clean with freshly prepared meals. When we arrived at 12:10 after visiting the temple in the morning, we were the only people there... until 12:30, when the place got packed with what looked like... More
