A hidden gem; good authentic Indian food. Chicken is nice and tender, no ‘nasty bits’. My wife and I shared a 2 entree combo, with Naan, rice and samosas. The vindaloo has a really nice kick, and my wife really enjoyed the tikka masala. She is pretty picky and thoroughly enjoyed her meal, so that is about as high a level of credit as you can offer 😅
Service could improve a little. The folks don’t communicate very well.. there’s a process to getting your food and having to wait for certain items, but they don’t exactly make it clear. But it doesn’t put us off. We’re grown ups and can work it out.
Obviously you’re eating in mall food court, so this isn’t haute cuisine; but for a quick and easy decent tasting authentic Indian meal at reasonable prices, this is not bad.

Food is incredible, some of the best Indian authentic tasting dishes you can find in the Boston area. Have been coming here for 20 plus years and the taste and quality of food has remained consistent. It is something my family and I crave often, I highly recommend.

We used to eat here while visiting the mall. We ate here two weekends back. My husband got sick right after eating food here. He had diarrhea and threw up so many times. Never again!!

India Gourmet is consistently excellent. The food is always delicious, portions are satisfying, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality.
The standout feature is the fresh bread baked in a traditional tandoor—warm, fluffy, and clearly made to order. It elevates the entire meal and is something you don’t find everywhere.
The menu strikes a great balance between classic staples like chicken tikka masala and more eclectic options, so there’s truly something for everyone, whether you’re a first-timer or very familiar with Indian cuisine.
And if you go on the weekend, don’t miss the chole bhature—absolutely to die for.
A reliable favorite and one of the better Indian food options in the area.

Surprisingly good food. I got the combo with Aloo Mutter and Chicken Curry. The Aloo Mutter was actually solid. Chicken curry was good (not the best just good). The cashier was courteous as well.
They have halal options too!
Overall a good place for Indian food.

I’ve been getting chicken vindaloo at this mall spot for literally 30 years. It had different levels of spiciness on different days, but it was always delicious. I’ve gone 3 times in the last month, and it has been absolutely awful. Not flavorful, not enough spice, not worth the money at all. I’ll try again in 6 months, but until then I’ll be getting my vindaloo elsewhere - SO disappointing, this was such an amazing place for so long.

It's our go to spot specially with kids. You can get authentic tea, not chai latte, with samosas or chole bhature, or can have full meal in the food court while kids can play well in the play area. Food is great and reasonably priced for being in a mall.

Is mallcore back? After wandering the Burlington Mall in a haze of overstimulation and deal-hunting, we found ourselves at Gourmet India—a true hidden gem that offered exactly the refresh we needed.
First, let’s talk about the food court setup. Tucked just out of sight from the bustle of the stores, it feels like a quiet reprieve, with a massive skylight above that brings in natural light and a touch of calmness. The stalls are neatly lined up, which makes browsing easy and ideal for dividing and conquering with friends.
Now, onto Gourmet India itself. There’s something charming about the humble presentation here: dishes served in paper and Styrofoam on those red plastic trays, nostalgic of classic mall food but with a twist. We went for the 3-item platter with rice, garlic naan (grilled to order!), a mango lassi, and two pieces of gulab jamun—all for around $25, which felt like an absolute steal.
The flavors didn’t disappoint. Every bite felt homemade and genuinely crafted. The chicken tikka masala was the star of the show—tender, fragrant, and utterly satisfying.
Gourmet India didn’t just serve us a meal; it gave us the perfect mid-shopping recharge, reminding us of the joys of a low-key mall food court, just with a little extra warmth and flavor.
We had Chana Bhatura and Dosa. Both were delicious (quality and quantity).

Great food for the price. Ate here twice and was very impressed by the food, especially for the price. Had chana masala and chicken vindaloo. It's so much better than any other food court meal I've had.
The chicken was cooked perfectly and portion sizes were awesome. This was my favorite restaurant on my work trip to Boston and I would come back any time.
the chicken tikka masala is just pieces of chicken soaked in trader joes tomato soup, not exactly chicken tikka masala. The pani puri is your average pani puri.

Gourmet India provided catering for my wedding. Their service was timely and professional. Mr. Sood provided helpful insights on the types of dishes that would suit the event schedule and our guests' needs, as well as the set-up. It was also helpful that Gourmet India already has a working relationship established with the venue, Boston Marriott Burlington, which eased communications and collaboration in the planning and execution stages. All the guests raved about the catering!
