Udipi Shri Krishna Boarding
South Indian, Udupi, Vegetarian · ₹ · Matunga East
A first-floor thali hall a minute from Matunga Central station, running for more than eighty years and serving satvik Udupi meals on a banana leaf, with a limited and an unlimited option and a token system at the entrance. This is not a dosa counter: it is a sit-down plate of rice, sambar, rasam, vegetables and payasam, refilled until you stop.

What diners say
Regulars describe the banana leaf meal in genuinely affectionate terms, praising its homely, lightly spiced cooking and the staff pressing second helpings. A substantial minority disagree sharply, reporting price rises without matching quantity, the best items rationed inside the unlimited thali, brusque management and poor washrooms. Expect a 30 to 45 minute wait at peak lunch.
