Best Indian food in the greater Boston area, the rice is seasoned so well and if that’s not an indicator as to how good the food is, I don’t know what to tell you. Great for casual occasions and great for dinner with your partner and their parents. Please do yourself a favor and eat here.

Great local family run Indian place. Always fairly empty so don’t have to wait at all for seating or very long for food. Extremely friendly owner/staff, answered any questions I had about the menu. I also noticed due to being not busy, they prepare the lunch buffet fresh when you walk in and just ask that you give them 5-10 minutes to set it up. Huge plus.
The buffet is limited but still good. Has about 6 dishes; Chicken curry, beef curry, vegetable curry, rice, some side dishes and etc. Nice if you just want many portions of well made staple Indian food.
Normal menu is expansive, but the ~10 items we’ve had from multiple trips all have been good. Going as a group of three and ordering 3 plates and 2 naan leave plenty for everyone to try if you’re into that type of meal.

maybe the worst Indian food I've ever had. Pakora was a solid chunk of dough, samosa potato filling was gummy and tasteless, Biryani was stodgy, no spices and tasted like it was made days ago are reheated. Never again.

This was my first time here. The food was awful. I ordered Aloo tikki and chicken biryani, Aloo tikki was burnt and did not look fresh. The chicken in chicken biryani was not even cooked properly. The food was not fresh at all. It was a bad experience.

Great experience like always!! Best food around!
Really small portions
Ordered takeout the other night. The Joti Dinner for 2 and some appetizers. FOOD was not great. It reminded me of too old leftovers warmed up past their good time. That was confirmed when I woke up in the middle of the night throwing up out of BOTH ends. I’ve eaten food that’s made me feel not so great before but this was another level. Think…. Bridesmaids after they eat at that restaurant trying on dresses. That’s Jotti Palace. I’m sorry to the business but I just have never felt so sick that I wouldn’t wish that upon my worst sworn enemy.

Not authentic Indian food at all. Please save your money and time!

I love this place! I’ve only ever ordered takeout, but can confirm that the interior is quite nice as well.
The food is fresh, flavorful, and I’m so excited to try more from the menu. The naan is the best I’ve ever had. Garlic naan has garlic and cilantro inside, not just brushed on at the end of cooking — and I really appreciate little touches like that. Chicken tikka masala (medium spice) is 10/10. Fish pakora was cooked perfectly, extremely flaky inside and crisp outside. Yesterday was my second time ordering from Joti Palace and I can already tell I’m going to be a regular.
The food is tasty and seasoned well. Things labeled spicy are actually spicy. The lamb vindaloo is my go to order.
Absolutely amazing! I go twice a month and they never disappoint. If you’re a vegetarian this is the place for you by all means. If you’re not a vegetarian, this is still the place for you.
Not sure what some of these bad reviews are. We’ve gotten take-out multiple times from here, and we ate in the other night. The food has always been good, but the dine-in experience was particularly great! The food was delicious, and the service was also really great. Really enjoyed our experience here!
Went for an early lunch. Stale food. Dirty tables.
