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

“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!“

“Came with my wife who has strict food restrictions due to allergies. Normally she would just get an appetizer for safety’s sake. The owner took the time to fix her up and have a full meal. The food itself? Spectacular. Will be back many many times.“

“my friends and I had dinner here, tried the chicken tikka masala, palak paneer, and dal makhni with garlic naan. very rich, balanced flavors. my friend (who is from india) enjoyed the authenticity of the dishes and the quality of the palak paneer. staff were very attentive and kind. decoration is beautifully done and the bathroom + space is very clean. they also gave us complimentary elaneer payasam at the end of the meal. interested in coming back here for their $15 lunch special (curry + 2 appetizers) one day

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

“Tried the buffet on the weekend. The cost vs food is amazing! They had a good spread of food, that they would refill quickly. Fresh naan for the table is also really great. The place was clean and comfortable. I would recommend going 15-20 minutes early on weekends cause there could be a short wait. Overall, worth the cost and the trip to kenmore.“

“very very Nice food Namaste Spice Arlington MA“

“I love this place! First came access them at the farmers market where they were giving samples and was very impressed. Their food is so delicious, fresh and authentic! I felt like I was back in Delhi! They are also incredibly kind. You can sense the passion that they have for their food and the connections that they’re making with customers.“

“india Pizza in Lexington, MA - A Hidden Gem. I recently visited India Pizza in Lexington, MA, for the first time and wasn't sure what to order. I decided on fried chicken and fried vegetable rice, which turned out to be an awesome choice. The rice came out first, and it was fantastic. The chicken was perfectly crisp, just the way I like it, even though I didn't request it that way. The customer service was top-notch—very professional. I only interacted with one staff member, but the service was fast, and I didn't have to wait long for anything. I highly recommend you try their food. I'll definitely be coming back. Excellent service all around! I'm not a person who try different culture foods. The reviews sold me. The Service I received again was top notch 👌 👍“

“Food was really good and quick delivery“

“Best Indian food in Massachusetts!!“

“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! 🤝💪“

“wah ji wah , desi feel was awaken , best food bhaji , guys come here and taste real indian food“

“The restaurant is nice and cozy. The service is great, they are attentive, quick, and very courteous. The food was prepared quickly and brought out promptly. The food was good but not superb otherwise it would have been worth another star. If you are close it is a good meal at a decent price. I had the chicken curry with garlic naan.“

“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!“

“Such a great place! I haven’t had goat since I was in India and it tasted just like I was back there! Great mango lassi and chicken tiki masala too!“

“I love this place! Delivery is always fast and high quality, there are always great deals going on. I ordered pick-up from here for the first time and the staff were so kind and friendly! Definitely an Allston staple for takeout and delivery.“

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

“Amazing restaurant! one of the best Malai kofta's i have ever had. Recommend onion pakora as well. They were super crispy. Amazing value as well. If I had to pick only a small bone it's that the green chutney was quite bland. Other than that, everything was great.“

“We had a full buffet lunch today available only on weekends. The menu included Rajasthani Mirchi pakodas, vegetarian sandwich, Pani purees, Pav Bhajee, Mango juice and Chaas as Appetisers followed by main course with 4 veg curries, Uttapams, Nan, Paneer Parothas, purees, Pineapple biryanee, basmati rice, daal, papadams and 3 types of sweets. Such a grand menu... We tasted small portions but guys.. Everything was yummy 😋.. Please do visit next time on Saturdays...“

“The Maharaja offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with attentive and courteous staff. The restaurant is clean, well-maintained, and the service is prompt. I ordered a chicken dish, and it was flavorful, well-seasoned, and served fresh. The naan was soft, the rice was perfectly cooked, and the portions were satisfying. I also appreciated the variety of vegetarian options on the menu. Overall, it was an enjoyable dining experience with excellent food and customer service. I would gladly recommend The Maharaja to anyone looking for quality Indian cuisine near Harvard Yard.“

“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).“

“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.“

“Incredible food. Recently moved here and this will be my go to spot. Definitely the best meal that I’ve had in the area so far <3

We had the samosas, lamb curry, and naan, definitely recommend to anyone looking for delicious Indian food!!“

“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.“

“Amazon food every time. Buffet is fresh and hot and always changes“

“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 :)“

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

“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. 🎁🎊“

“Food was good, service was nice“

“Madras Dosa Company, or “MDC” as we lovingly call it, is a comfort spot I would go to every day if I could. I’ve been going here for years now, bringing many different friends and family, with the utmost confidence that it will hit the spot each and every single time. The paneer canteen sandwich is my personal favorite (the chips and sauce accompany the sandwich so perfectly 👌🏾), but I’ve loved everything I’ve gotten including the potato sandwich, all of the chaats, dosas, vadas (the rasam is so flavorful and reminds me of home), and of course the many and salt lassis. I cannot say enough positive things about the lovely people who work here, who always greet me and my others warmly and welcomingly, and they even recognize me and my orders now (and that’s not just because I’m a frequent customer)! The atmosphere is also so warm, with Bollywood and Hollywood classics playing in the background and cool interior decoration. It’s also such a plus that MDC is open late so it satisfies that late night craving while being insanely yummy. The fact that I still bring close and new friends here these many years later shows how much confidence I have in the quality and warmth of MDC, and I hope this can continue for many years to come!!“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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!!!“

“Yummy food with nice atmosphere . Have so many little corners that you would love to click with .“

“The food was fresh and delicious. They had an excellent vegan choice menu. They also had good meat dishes. My partner had an amazing goat curry. I had a Bindi masala. The service was friendly and prompt. It was a snowy evening, so it was not very busy.“

“Always tasty food at a reasonable price 😊“

“Dosa was very fresh and waiters very kind. The wait staff help you to select flavors and keep your water glass filled.“

“Good delicious food enjoyed“

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

“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.“

“Excellent buffet, along with excellent customer service and courteous demeanpr“
