“Best tandoori chicken I have EVER had. The entire meal was cooked to perfection with spice levels just right..even the extra extra spicy ones!“

“We had such a wonderful dining experience, largely thanks to Milli! From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. She took the time to walk us through the menu, gave great recommendations based on what we were in the mood for, and checked in just the right amount - never too much, never too little. Even when the restaurant got busy, Milli stayed calm, kept a smile on her face, and made sure our drinks were always topped up and our food came out perfectly timed. She clearly cares about giving guests a great experience, and it showed in every interaction. Service like this is what turns a good meal into a memorable one. If you're dining here, ask for Milli - she'll take great care of you. Will definitely be back!“

“This restaurant was amazing! Not only was the food awesome but the staff was also incredible! We were sitting outside, and I was cold, so one of the hostesses gave me her jacket to wear for the enter meal and brought my sister and me chai tea to warm us up!! It was so incredibly kind of her. All the staff was amazing and the meal itself was so good. I would definitely come back!“

“Great ambience, delicious food, awesome service!! Definitely recommend to anyone who loves Indian food.“

“Me and my boyfriend came here to have indian food and absolutely loved it. It was my boyfriend’s first time trying dosa and dahi ke kebab and he absolutely loved it. We can’t wait to be back again. We will also bring our friends to this place because the food was absolutely delicious. Totally worth the drive.“

“We came here to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary, and it was amazing! We tried the samosa chaat, pani golgappa, lamb chops, butter chicken, and masala chai, everything was absolutely delicious. The flavors were on fire, and the service was great. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic and tasty Indian food. We’ll definitely be back! 🔥❤“

“Love their dosa and chole bhature !!!!“

“We just happened to end up right in front of this restaurant with our prepaid parking for the World Cup game and what a find! Spectacular food! The masala tea is to die for-we took some home! Just know everything is a little spicy to start if you’re a white American, who doesn’t eat spicy food. The service was also quick and accurate.“

“Namaste Boston was fantastic! The Chicken 65 was flavorful, and perfectly spiced, and the Aloo Tiki Chaat was delicious with the perfect balance of savory, tangy, and creamy flavors. The biryani was also excellent—fragrant, flavorful, and a generous portion.

Everything was fresh, flavorful, and came together for a great meal. Definitely a spot I’d come back to and highly recommend!“

“Nachlo is truly one of the best spots in Boston. The food is absolutely incredible, fresh, flavorful, and made with so much care. Every dish tastes homemade and full of character. The owners are amazing and genuinely kind, and the staff is just as warm and welcoming. You can really feel the passion behind this place. The atmosphere is lively, cozy, and just such a great vibe overall. I cannot recommend it enough!“

“I generally get Doordash delivery from this place for the last couple months. It's quick service. I think their parathas are very good but their naans are mediocre at best. One thing I'd like to point out is inconsistency -sometimes they'd send me yogurt with the paratha and sometimes they won't. I like that some of their chicken options are white meat chicken.“

“I have tried almost every Indian restaurant in Boston and this place has got me hooked. I have lived in India for 15 years and love Indian food and this place has the most authentic taste from what I have had in India. Highly recommend! 🤝💪“

“This is the second time in one week my friend and I have chosen this restaurant as our destination for food, drinks, and merriment and we were not disappointed.The staff is a delight, both times we were greeted with a warm smile and they were very knowledgeable recommending dishes and levels of spice. The naan bread is delicious and the appetizers and entrees we ordered were amazing as well bursting with so much flavor. The cocktails were crafted with precision and so much passion from the wonderful bartender. The live music is great! We definitely recommend Chulo restaurant and plan on returning again and again!“

“Food was delicious. We were delighted to find such well prepared food at 8.30 pm in a casual vibe Indian restaurant. Service was genuine and warm. Vaishnavi made us feel like we were visiting a friends home. From dosa to idli to uttapam each and every item was so good. The goat meat appetizer was tasty and plentiful. Thanks much …cannot wait to try the other delicacies.“

“The food here is delicious and the service beautiful. We loved it! The lunch specials are not to be missed. Great value!“

“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.“

“Seriously the BEST Indian food I’ve had since leaving Jamaica Plain the mango lassi is incredible everything Chicken tikka Marsala, garlic naan and the Rita yogurt sauce was So incredible awesome and amazing. I wish I could eat there every single day and they are the nicest people sometimes it’s a little hard to find but trust me you’ve got to have this food if you love Indian food it is so so good. You’ve got to get it from here.“

“Wooow!! Every bite was amazing… the lamb mushroom masala 🔥😤🔥 the noodle 😍 and everything else was just sensational!! My stomach, body and soul right now overall 😁 💯🏆🥇🏆“

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

“It is hard to find a good Indian restaurant in the Cambridge area. This one certainly stands out especially when it comes to offering a pretty decent variety of Vegan and Dairy-free items.

We ordered the Tofu saag, aloo gobhi, dairy-free tandoori roti and paratha.The vegetable pakodas were decent too.

Location is pretty good along with the ambience.“

“My husband and I absolutely LOVED our meals. Looking forward to many future orders! Highly recommend the chicken tikka masala, veggie samosas, veggie momo, and chicken curry! Can’t wait to try more items on the menu next time :)“

“Living nearby, Kantipur has become my go-to every week for quarantine takeout. I've tried all the chicken dishes about 3 times by now and I still can't decide which is the best! But my favorite menu item is the vegetable pakora appetizer. Dip it in the chutney sauce and you'll understand. 🎁🎊“

“Tried this place for the first time for lunch. Was getting tired of going to all the usual places. I’m very glad I did.

Food: this is one of the few places I’ve seen where you can order goat (and this place is in a mall food court!) so I had to try. I got the Goat curry (medium spice) and it was what I expected of goat and so much more! If you have never eaten goat, it can be a bit chewy and maybe more fatty compared to other meat, and this is served on the bone so be careful when you eat as bone chips can be around in the sauce. Medium spice was good for me, added zip without taking away from the flavor, but a softer palate might think it is too spicy. It came with a portion of long grain basmati rice. It was enough for me but the curry portion could probably cover two rice portions. So if you like a lot of rice, add an extra order. I very much enjoyed the food.

Service: gave them a 5 for service. It was easy to order online and my order was ready right on time. The staff that served me was kind and asked if I wanted utensils. When I said yes she asked if was eating in the food court and when I told her I was she added in a plate so I didn’t have to eat off the bag/out of the containers.

Atmosphere: atmosphere is three because it’s a mall food court - not much else to add.

Will absolutely be eating here again.“

“It’s been a while since I had a buffet they did not Disappoint me.“

“Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. I had Madras Chicken, and plain Naan. Both were great. The room is simple, modern with a friendly cozy feel. The staff were warm and helpful. This place is an instant favorite, and will be part of my regular rotation.“

“Good food we use them for catering events at our place and always perfect as we expect. 5 star“

“OMG, this is the absolute best Indian food! Take out because it's a workday, happy taste buds because the dishes are perfectly prepared and seasoned. Today we ordered Paneer Tikka Masala, Chicken Biryani and Peshawari Naan. If you have an opportunity to try them out, you will not be disappointed. Yum, Yum, YUM!!!“

“Food was good, service was nice“

“They have really good customer service and Food is really so good and delicious.I appreciate for your service.“

“Food here would have been excellent if the salt level on literally every dish and appetizer we ordered were not over salted. Our entire table of 4 thought so, so it was not a singular take. Please check the salt before plating - better to under salt and have a salt shaker then to leave not finishing even half of the meal due to sodium drowning.“

“We went there on a weekend night and tried the dosa with Kakarampodi and spicy potato. The dosa was good and probably the best thing we ordered. The idlis were also soft and fresh.
We also tried the pav bhaji, pani puri, and samosa chaat, but those were pretty average and nothing really stood out. Since they’re mainly known for their dosas, I’d say stick to those if you’re visiting. Overall, it was decent and I would go again for dosa and Karampodi.“

“Wow! I've walked past WOW TIKKA a million times and was always thrown off by their branding and logo. If that sounds silly, trust me, it really is. What a loss on my part. Perhaps not the most traditional style of Indian food (mix and match of starch, proteins, sauces), but, Oh Lord, did it hit the SPOT. Don't judge a book by its cover I would say. Try them out! Wonderful staff and delicious food for good prices.“

“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!“

“Good delicious food enjoyed“

“I love Indian food and Singh's Cafe has the best Indian food in the state. They had stopped their luncheon buffet, they have recently resumed the buffed. I can't tell you how happy I was.. Everything is great. The Tiki masala, lamb, vegetable dishes are incredible. The samosas are killer.. There isn't a bad dish there.. The atmosphere is warm and there has never been a wait. There is plenty of street parking right in front. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone, and the prices are quite reasonable, $15 for the all you can eat lunch buffet. I always get some to bring back to my wife, she also thinks it's the best Indian food.“

“The dosa tastes truly authentic, just like proper Indian food back home. Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for real flavors.

One small suggestion: it would be great to have authentic filter coffee on the menu to complete the experience.“

“One of best economical Indian food in Massachusetts and taste is consistent almost every time and 5 vegetarian options every day and their chappathi is the best and their pickle one of fresh ones . They also have 5 non veg options too and biryanis. Before combo costs around 14 dollar for two curries and Jeeva rice with 2 big chappathis or Naana and their Naan is the softesr I ever had and they also had papad

Best combo vegetarian restaurant with vegan options good job

Improvements : They bakado needs improvement since it oily in the last few months and they should not have only one or two daily items in veg options else it is tough for vegans“

“I love Ali Roti since the 1980’s. Fresh food good flavor and family owned. Delicious food to top my cravings.“

“We ordered through uber eats. The food was extremely good and quantity sufficient. Since we stayed in a hotel, we asked for plates and cutlery (there is an option to request for them). But there were no cutlery. Please remove the option to ask for cutlery if they cannot be provided by you.“
