I travel the globe for work and always try the Indian in whatever city I'm in and I have yet to find an Indian restaurant that tops Mayuri in Beaverton, specifically their biryani and dosa offerings. I first started going with colleagues for lunch at Mayuri's buffet, which I found above average (relative to their competition). Over the years they've actually improved their buffet by expanding their offering, such as adding biryani in the rice section and typically a lamb dish along with the chicken masala and tandoori chicken. I noticed other commentaries noting the buffet being out of dishes, which I've experienced at times too, but I should note that the line is always full and people help themselves to "ample" portions, depleting food far faster than reasonable service can replenish. For example, I was recently in line with approximately 5-6 people in front of me when a full pan of naan [which is excellent] was brought out. By the time I got to the naan none was left. Buffet aside, I've found the dinner options even more impressive relative to their competition. The dosas are excellent, specifically the meat dosas, and the biryani is top notch. I've even found the staff amiable to adjusting the spiciness of the food. And regarding the wait staff, I've found them kind and courteous, although at times on the slow side when customer traffic is high. I read other comments that found the service cold or curt, that certainly has not been my experience. Perhaps a bit more cultural sensitivity - something I would have expected naturally from Portlanders - is needed. Otherwise, I recommend they try TGI Fridays or Applebees for smiling faces and pleasant chit-chat with their hosts.

Pros: Phenominal food, very reasonable prices, curteous staff

Cons: Buffet popularity sometimes leads to long lines

Worst Indian restaurant in Oregon. I went there 3 times with the expectation that this time it will be better but looks like it gets worse than last time. First time when I went there I did not like the way they were treating people. Very unfriendly. If you like chicken and eating it little bit more than others then owner will look at you in such a way as if you have made a crime by eating more chicken. I went there with non-indian friends and they hated the customer service. Last time when I went there I had a terrible experience. I saw that they were making cornish game hen and selling that as chicken. This people are super cheap. Their buffet items are empty most of the time. If you ask them to get something, they will get stuff only in bits and pieces.They served chicken which was only 25% cooked. It was completely raw inside. There was only one person, an Indian lady, who was cleaning and was also serving the food. When I talked to her about the uncooked chicken, she said that I should check it before eating. I was shocked and reliazed that there is no point discussing this with a lady who is so stupid. I have decided to report it to health agency and let them handle this.
