24 Best Indian Restaurants near Braintree

“This is some of the best Indian food if not some of the best food in general I've ever had. Tikli masala flavor was beautiful. I mean realllllyyyyy spot on. Also got the spicy goat. Perfect amount of spice. Only thing I will say is there was a lot of small pebble sized bones I was biting into and it was a bit concerning. Other than that this was truly something special. I would eat here everyday if it could. So good👍“

“I was in Quincy for a few days visiting family and stumbled upon Tiranga while out for a walk. They serve since of the best Indian food I've ever had. . I'll definitely return next time in in Quincy.“

“stopped by when in town for work. Spice levels were just right, service was fine, and food was great. I can't wait to visit again!“

“i love their food and so is family i highly recommend them“

“We were at your Plymouth location last night and to say it was amazing is an understatement!!! The food was so fresh and flavorful! The dumplings were very light, we ate all 10 of them! The paneer was perfect and the naan was light yet crispy. Pravin was so knowledgeable and the best company. If we are ever in town again, we will definitely be visiting! 10 out of 10!!“

“Sher-A-Punjab is a great spot for authentic Indian food in Boston. The flavors are rich and well balanced and the service is friendly. I especially enjoyed their butter chicken and naan. Definitely a place I'd go back to!“

“We made a quick reservation this evening and showed up early. We were seated quickly and had sufficient time to order. Our server took about 10 minutes to greet us and took our entire order at that time.

The service wasn't anything to write home about, and our food was out before we received the bottle of wine we ordered. However, the food was excellent! We ordered the butter chicken, chicken vindaloo, onion naan, and vegetable pakodas. Everything was flavorful and came to our table hot. Probably the best of these dishes we've had.

Give this place a shot, you will be happy you did.“

“We had the absolute best experience here tonight celebrating my dad’s 76th birthday. The food was outstanding but the best part of the night was the experience with the staff and owner. They chose menu items for us when we were overwhelmed, bringing out dish after dish of amazing food, and then the owner played with our 8 month old while we ate. She was amazing. They brought a complementary appetizer and dessert with a candle and organized a family photo for us. They didn’t blink an eye at our chaos and provided outstanding service, facilitating a really beautiful evening for our family. We’re so grateful!“

“An excellent spot in JP for some of the best Indian food in the city. This is my 6th time visiting the restaurant and the first time the lighting in the restaurant was nice enough to take some pictures.

This place isn't afraid to make authentic Indian food. Just be sure to tell your server you would like an authentic level of spice and your mouth (and guts) will burn. For most, a mild or mid level of spice would suffice. I love their Special Briyani, which is a combination of fish, shrimp and chicken.

Now, the service was hit or miss. Today, the service was weak. They had 4 servers in the restaurant who were happy to stand and watch things go by rather than be attentive or helpful. They were also eager to get you OUT of the restaurant by placing the check on your table as quickly as they can even though it was quiet and there were plenty of space. Thankfully, the quality of the food saved the day.“

“Highly recommended for vegetarians in the area craving authentic Indian flavors!
We tried the Samosa Chaat and Vada Pav, and both dishes were absolutely top-notch. The Vada Pav packs a bit of heat—so if you’re sensitive to spice, just a heads-up—but I personally loved the kick. Totally worth it for anyone looking to indulge in bold, flavorful Indian street food.“

“Vaisakhi is the breath of fresh air that the restaurant scene in this little corner of Brighton and all of Cleveland Circle needs. Finally a sit down, casual Indian place that's reasonably priced and doesn't require half an hour each way on the T to get to! Even on their first day open, their food is better than several of the Indian restaurants in the Boston area that I've eaten at. Tucked away across from the Sutherland Road T stop, you can follow your nose to the doorstep of the restaurant. The interior tastefully restrained, bright colors and some simple paintings above the booths. The space is small, but not cramped and the booth seating at least was very comfortable. The three gentlemen who own/run the front of the house are eager to please. We were seated right away and given water and menus. The menu is comprehensive without being too large and confusing. The vegetarian, and meat sections are both equally sized, so there's plenty of options for both vegetarians and meat eaters alike. My wife and I started out with the vegetable pakoras. These little fritters of batter and veggies were served hot, with a little bit of salty spice powder and dipping sauces. The crunchy shell pairs nicely with the soft veggies inside and tastes amazing when you put a bit of the red onion chutney on it. For our main course we ordered the saag paneer and the dal makhani, two of our favorite vegetarian dishes in Indian cuisine. The dal makhani was subtle, not overly spiced and not overly rich like many I've had. The lentils weren't rock hard or cooked into mush. The star of the show was definitely the saag paneer though. The saag was so wonderfully rich and smooth and spiced perfectly, and the paneer was the perfect texture, not too soft and mushy and now dry and crumbly. We decided to leave room for some desert and tried both the gulab jamun and the kheer. The kheer was a bit under seasoned for my taste, not enough rose water or cardamom and a bit on this thin side, but it served as a nice palate cleanser. The gulab jamun was excellent, the syrup not too sweet or floral and the balls had a nice subtle flavor to them as well. I'm lucky enough to live right around the corner from Vaisakhi, but I would gladly travel a lot further for this food.“

“Best lunch buffet. I especially like the Palak Paneer (cottage cheese and spinach).“

“The service is friendly and the prices are very affordable. The food is really delicious and authentic South Indian cuisine. All the dishes were done perfectly and the staff was very kind. One of the best South Indian meals I have ever had.“

“I could eat the Curry Goat every single day. You have to get it hot! The Garlic Naan or the Papadam with a glass of wine while I wait is the way to go! 5 out 5“

“Best Indian food in the grester Boston area! It's like eating in Punjab, India.“

“Visiting Boston with my wife for a few days and we dined at Shanti. What a great find, cosy atmosphere, good menu, excellent food and first class service. Strongly recommend to all!“

“Really enjoyed my experience at Mela. The food was tasty and the fresh, the service was welcoming. A great place if you're looking for quality Indian cuisine in Boston.“

“The food was excellent. There was a fair amount of heat and spice, but it was balanced nicely with well-developed flavors. Even on a 95 ° f day, outside dining was comfortable because of the strong cross breeze and shade.“

“Arrived at hospital an hour and a half early with plenty of time for lunch! This wonderful and authentic Indian restaurant was just the solution I needed! I asked for medium heat on my chicken curry and it was quite spicy! 🌶️ very delicious! This is more of a takeaway place but they have a few tables. Super nice staff! Curry 🍛 was great! Trays and plastic cutlery. My only complaint is I needed more napkins. Super happy with my impromptu luncheon!“

“Excellent REAL Indian food💗spicey and tasteeeee“
