I really enjoy the butter chicken and naan bread. I honestly get takeout here once a week to kick off the weekend .

We found this great little place just a short walk from the Hampton Inn Boston/Cambridge. They had a great selection of vegetarian dishes, and we chose the vegetable pakora, Paneer Kadai, garlic naan, and chai. All was very good. They appear to be family owned and operated. They advertise a daily lunch buffet for $9.95 which I would definitely try if in this area again.

Before the pandemic, I came here once for their lunch buffet which is a great deal ($10 only!). I came back to order takeout last weekend and was able to use my restaurant.com certificate. Make sure you have cash if you're making a smaller order, they don't take card for anything less than $20. When I was there there were a few other people waiting or eating; there didn't seem to be any extra COVID precautions compared to the last time I came prior to the pandemic but generally people were appropriately spaced. For my order, I got the dal tadka, pista coconut naan, and a mango lassi. When asked, I picked a medium spice level for the dal tadka which felt appropriately spicy. It was more watery than I expected, but got more solid in the fridge for leftovers afterward. The pista coconut naan was a sweet change from the normal or garlic naan I usually get, but I didn't get much of the pistachio flavor. Mango lassi was yummy, as they always are :)
