I tried this based on a recommendation for their chicken tikka pizza and I was blown away! It's like having your naan preloaded with chicken masala. I'll be back!

This place is the real deal. Every year on Valentine’s Day we treat ourselves to the pizza and momos. The pizzas are so fun with flavors like chili chicken, saag paneer, and chicken tikka. Try the momos with the Jhol sauce. High on my list of recommended meals.

A seriously wonderful restaurant. The food was so good- the staff even accommodated a request I made for a curry. Garlic naan was great. We had the lasuni gobi, The curry (chicken), vegetable pakoras, and tikka masala. The owner served us (can’t remember his name) and he was so friendly. Quiet place- really enjoyed the quietness. Some restaurants play music too loud- this isn’t one of them :) Can’t wait to return!

Excellent service! Firstly the food was authentic and very well spiced. Thoroughly enjoyed each and every aspect of the meal. We got the newari samay bhaji and the kali mirch ke tikke. Beautiful presentation and flavors. At every point the people who served us were attentive and friendly. Lovely atmosphere and cozy interiors. 10/10 would come back!!

I usually do not write negative reviews, but as a Nepali visiting a local Nepali restaurant in Boston, this experience was truly disappointing.

We are from New York, and while we can handle rude behavior, racism is something we cannot accept. Experiencing this from people within our own community is especially disheartening.

We were simply waiting to dine in and politely asked if we could use the restroom. Instead of a respectful response, an employee asked us to step outside and said they would let us know when it was available. From that moment, it was clear we were being treated differently. The dismissive looks made us uncomfortable, and we noticed that other walk-in customers were seated immediately while we were left waiting without explanation.

If customers are made to feel unwelcome, they will not spend their money there. A lack of basic customer service and common decency will never help a business succeed.

Rarely am I so eager to go to a place as this one… I’ve been here three times and every time it was a joyful experience. Might I say this is my favorite spot for food in Somerville!!!

Wow absolutely delicious. I got the Newari Samay Baji with chicken curry and chuira. Chyoila was quite spicy, about at the upper limit of enjoyability (I have a low/medium spice tolerance), still very flavorful though. Bara pancake was awesome. I didn’t look up what Chuira was before hand. I really liked the crunch combo with the rice (ty for giving me some on the house). Overall super filling as well.
