Man price of the buffet was brutal!While selection was relatively good, but they seemed to be skimping on meat. For instance nihari and chicken tikka masala were all gravy and barely any meat. Bits of meat in nihari were of low quality.Actually I went right at the start of buffet when place was empty, there should have been a lot of meat for the price. I did not try chicken tikka, but nihari was thin gravy and no taste to it. Traditionally it is a very bold and flavorful dish.Custard dessert, the three chutneys and spring rolls were pretty good. Samosas were not fresh by the look of weary skin and pakoras while crunchy tasted oily.Simple salad was very hot, which should never be the case. The onion, tomato and lettuce salad is traditionally a tangy side but not firey hot.White rice was the broken type called tota and is fed to birds in indopak region. This was cheap.I liked the general freshness of food, which is not found in Indian restaurants.

Went for dinner had good experience but I don’t understand one thing why the lady at the counter saying this to everyone “ thank you visit again “ expect to us . We just had dinner and didn’t behave badly or rudely.

They were very careless. This was my second time. We took buffet the names were mismatching the dishes it said veg samosa but they were serving chicken samosa.Even after pointing out they just changed the name to veg/Chicken samosa in the same serving container which does not make any sense since you could not differtiate between them.Please be careful while eating here and don't trust what the dish name says specifically if you are vegetarian . Lastly Food was not fresh as well.

Masala Bae offers a delightful solution for Indian food lovers on a budget. Their all-you-can-eat option provides excellent value without compromising on quality or variety. With a diverse selection of curries, including both meat and vegan options, every palate is catered to. The rich, flavorful curries burst with aromatic spices, delivering an authentic culinary experience. Don't miss out on pairing your curry with their delectable garlic naan, a perfect complement to the meal. And for dessert, indulge in their heavenly mango creations, reminiscent of a refreshing mango smoothie combined with creamy mango goodness. Masala Bae truly elevates the dining experience with their affordable yet delicious offerings.

Love this place! I love Indian food but hadn’t found my go to spot until Masala Bae. I’ve come for dinner and recently tried the lunch buffet. I love how fresh all the dishes are and how many options are available for a pescatarian like me! The Dosas and the fresh Naan are to die for!

My GO TO for high-quality Indian food in my neck of the woods. This place is BUSY, and I mean that in a good way, but you may need to wait. As it offers plenty of Halal plates, it may get busy around certain Muslim holidays, as I experienced. The staff, as I did have to wait a moment for our food (Ramadan fast breaking crowd came in so there was a rush) was VERY kind and gave plenty of updates on my order. It was worth the wait, my mouth waters over their chef's special lamb and Tikka. Cant wait to go back!

Service is excellent, food is AMAZING. Great spices and flavor. I went three days in a row...I had to give them a break before they take all my money . Definitely worth it. I'll definitely be back!

This place is delish! We came on Valentine's Day during lunch and had their buffet. Every time I go to these types of buffets there's always a curry I don't like. I was really amazed that I liked ALL of them here. Of course I had my favorites but all of them were really good! It was also great that they have free unlimited mango lassi and hot chai! Who does that? That definitely scored extra points for me. Their desserts were also yummy. I couldn't get enough of them. The only problem is that I'm older now and can't eat as much as I used to hence my disappointment in not being able to pig out as much as I wanted. Everything was so delicious and I wanted so badly to eat more but my belly was telling me to stop. We'll be back!
