Very delicious, nice staff!
My wife and I came to this restaurant and ordered one chicken and one shrimp. One dish was to eat with rice and the other with bread. After a while, the food and rice came out, and the bread came out later, the waiter said. But until we had finished all the food, the bread didn't come out. All we said was that even if we asked the waiter, it would come out soon. We had no choice but to pack up the leftovers and come back home. So it was a bad Jumal dinner. We will never visit this restaurant again.
Delicious food
My book club chose to meet here for dinner and since we were a larger group (11 of us) we made reservations beforehand. The food and the service were great. My paneer saag was probably the best I’ve ever had, I’ve also sampled some of the chicken dishes (butter chicken, tikka masala, curry chicken, chicken biryani which all did not disappoint…really flavorful!) The rice was perfectly cooked and the naan was amazing. I found free street parking nearby. The restaurant is on the smaller side, considering our group took up a lot of space. Really lovely spot that I want to return to!!
Great food, nice staff
So delicious and everyone here is so nice, I love this place :)
Channa saag, gobi paratha, and chicken tikka masala were all good.
Had a great time with my fam at Masala Box this evening. Everything was delicious, we devoured it all. We ordered the samosa chaat app, chicken korma, chicken tikka masala, shrimp masala, garlic naan, reg naan, poori, mango lassi and rasmali for dessert. Everything was cooked perfectly. Spice level was exactly as we requested. The naan tasted fresh and great texture. Rasmali is my favorite dessert and it was on point. Had a hint of rose water that balanced the flavors out so perfectly.
I’ve been eyeing this place for a while and I’m glad we finally came. Service was great, staff was friendly and our waitress/ server was so kind and warm. Great addition to bayside. Will def come again.

Just had dinner at Masala Box, it was amazing and the service was great. The owner Sumita thoroughly explained every dish and we were very satisfied with the experience. Highly recommend trying every dish, both vegetarian and meats. The mango lassi was nice and thick, yum! ??

My favorite restaurant on Bell Blvd! Their food is always fresh and so delicious and service is great overall. They were super accommodating tonight when I ordered delivery, a special order mind you, not long before their kitchen closing time. I was so appreciative and would recommend Masala Box to anyone!
