Punjabi Dhaba: what do users think?
Nanako Yano: Really unfortunate that quality has seriously deteriorated since I last ate here in 2018. We got take out and they missed one order and the tandoori chicken was tough and inedible (it used to be so tender and juicy). Not sure what happened but if you are expecting the quality from 5 years ago, you’ll be disappointed.
Clemente T. Sánchez Barja: Great food! I’ve eaten here multiple times, and it is also my go-to Indian place for takeout. Really tasty for a very good price! They don’t take credit cards at the register, which can be annoying, but if you buy through the app you can use your card!Recommended dishes Nan, Chicken Tikka Masala …More
Rahul Mukherjee: I generally order from here relatively frequently through Doordash and the food isn't bad. However, yesterday we found a dead fly in one of their dishes and that to me is totally unacceptable.
Deepika tanwar: hello sir need your help my father is in your city he is an indian chef need of work plzz if it's possible or vaccany for job plzz reply sirAtmosphere: 4/5 …More
M Marouan: I love the food, but don’t expect reasonable portions from the vegetarian menu. This is my 3rd time ordering. The containers are filled with nothing but gravy and very few vegetables at the bottom. There were about 3 pieces of potatoes in my aloo mattur and the chickpeas curry was only gravy with a few chickpeas at the bottom.Vegetarian options: Only gravy, hardly any vegetables. Not worth the price.
D. C.: This name of this place is misleading as neither the staff nor the food is actually Punjabi. We ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Kebobs. CTM was watery and bland, and and the Lamb Kebobs were stale and tasteless.The place is disorganized and unappealing now. It used to be amazing, but the management has changed hands and it shows. Will not be returning here.They do provide a decent quantity of food for the money, so it could be good for students.
Joseph Suizzo: Recommended dishes Mango Lassi, Nan, Chicken Biryani, Sweet LassiMore
Stacie Rihl: Best Indian food in Boston!
Evelyn Xing: I lived right next to it one summer, and great place to get a take-away curry and some crispy fried syrup coated desserts! The aroma hits you as soon as you walk into the door!

Caleb Huntington: Good food. The menu is order-by-number, 62 different items.
Daniel Rabetti: Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 4/5Recommended dishes Chicken Tikka MasalaMore
Raj Vinjamuri: When I ordered in the food was tasty and delicious. Some of the best Indian food in Camberville. Then when I ordered delivery, it was bland and plain and disappointing. You likely want to add notes to add extra masala or spice if you get delivery and cannot say so in person.
Sumeet Lubal: If you are indian.. Do not go here
Ekta E: Not worth the money. Food was below average. Stay away!!
Abhishek kaurav: Staff was nice, they even accommodated us at the last hour.However wouldn't recommend the place or food. Sitting area wasn't great either. Veg Biryani is nothing but fried rice with beans. Chhole was good though.Food: 2/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 3/5Recommended dishes Chole Bature …More

A B: Idk if it’s Punjabi food or not, but it’s tasty, and the only thing that hasn’t gotten more expensive since the start of the pandemic

Jay Satrola: Good place to eat some good north as well as South Indian dishes just go there and you gonna love it
Hollis Skeete: I am big fan of indian food and loved chicken dishes of desi dhaba and would recommend to all who want to taste soom good indian dishes.
e nethaji: Hi people . Me and my frnds went to Desi dhaba to have lunch and we ordered a platter and I am telling you guys forget about the food not cooked good but the food is not fresh I mean it taste like it’s been kept out open for days and they served straight to us and later we complained to the manager there and got out from thereI strongly recommend please please please don’t go there you will get disappointed
Rajesh Rajagopal: Great tasting food, but the goat jalfrezi had pieces of goat WITH bones so was annoying having to eat the goat pieces. Can’t you take the bones out BEFORE making the curry?
Milan Parikh: Honestly very overpriced for the portion sizes and not as flavorful as I'd expect. The naan was flat and crispy/crumbly rather than fluffy and soft, and the malai kofta portion was just 2 small kofta in a rather mild flavored sauce. There's other options in the area that are quite a bit better.
Michael Chunko: Food: 3/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 2/5More

The Maharaja: what do users think?
Rakesh Khandelwal: Big menu with many vegetarian and non-vegetarian choices, and decent decor. Ordinary wine selection. They have cocktail menu as well.While menu suggested authentic north Indian food, it tasted very ordinary, below average. Ordinary enough not worth trying again, especially at the menu price. We had vegetarian food only, don't know about taste for chicken, mutton and/or other non-vegetarian options.
Valeria Fasolo: The food was excellent, although the veg pakora came out cold and did not taste fresh. I had the Baingan Patiala Masala, it was my first time trying that dish and it's now one of my favorite indian foods; it was flavourful and nutty at the same time, and the eggplants were creamy, almost silky! My friend and I only had to wait 5 minutes to be seated without a reservation on a Saturday night, which was great as we were both extremely hungry. The service was excellent, the waiter was polite, and he didn't make us feel rushed. Would go back again.if craving Indian and in the area.Vegetarian options: There are plenty of tasty vegetarian optionsParking: Free street parking after 8 pm and on Sundays

Katrin Shikova: My favorite Indian restaurant. The food is always delicious no matter what you order.
Divyangana: The food was about average I would say (the naan was too doughy and the biryani was quite bland). The staff were very nice and friendly and the service was quite great overall.
Kyriakos Grammatikos: Food is a little greasy but overall good quality. I particularly love this restaurant for it's cozy atmosphere and friendly service. Very good cocktails as well! If you can, balance out your order with items that don't contain creamy sauces.Food: 4/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Maharaja Biryani, Chicken Biryani, Mango Lassi, Aloo Samosa Chaat, Naan …More
Noman ali: Recommended dishes Tandoori, Maharaja Biryani, Mango Lassi, Chicken Lollipop, NaanMore
zakeer hussain: Completely lost the credibility With this restaurant, it’s not so worthy and food is really average and they charge the tip without your consent which is really bad and I don’t know what’s wrong with their databases as well!!!!
Kyle: So delicious! The lamb biryani is not only plentiful but absolutely delicious. If it's the weekend, I may suggest reservations because it was busy! It is located upstairs, so don't be misled. It's worth the climb!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 4/5Recommended dishes Chicken Tikka Masala, Naan …More

Prashant Doshi: We were at this restaurant 9 years ago and the food was top notch - 5 stars - as good as the best Indian restaurants elsewhere in the country. It seems that the kitchen staff has changed for the worse.We will not be returning to this restaurant.Service is good and staff are nice - however, we didn't enjoy the food.1) Breads were not good - Chapati tasted like a tortilla [and was all white like it was made from white flour instead of wheat flour], shell on aloo paratha was tough.2) While we requested medium spice level, food was prepared mild and was not as flavorful as expected.Food was not bad, just ok - 3 out of 5 stars. However, due to the prices, I have reduced the rating to 2 stars.
prized treasure: Felt like I was in someone’s living room /dining room. Felt like home. Good service, great tasting food and beverages.
Sanjana Shetty: For being in the city, this place is probably not a bad choice for Indian food. They offer above average Indian food and good service. Their food does lack flavor sometimes and is more catered to American palette than Indian
Paula D: So delicious, with great service and a wicked cool view from the second-floor. An all-around lovely atmosphere.

India Pavilion: what do users think?
Tyler Petrochko: Awesome Indian food and great prices. Highly recommend the Samosa Chile Chaat.
Naresh Kumar: Kid-friendliness: Hhh
Arkopal Datta: The food was good but nothing special. If you're craving Indian food then it's a good spot, but nothing memorable.Vegetarian options: There were sufficient vegetarian options.
Lekha Akhuli: Food is good but it would have been better in taste if they improve the quality. But i must say it was reasonable ..
Connor L: I ordered the Goat Vindaloo for lunch, service and pickup was perfectly fine. I got to eating it and begin picking out more and more bones of varying sizes, ranging from pea-sized and egg-size. Very off-putting when you don’t expect it… flavor was amazing though. I’d recommend this restaurant, but stay away from the goat. A coworker shared a similar experience getting the same dish.
Dhriti Shankar Sinha: Vegetarian options: Nice tasteKid-friendliness: Enjoy
Atharva Aher: Good food, nice taste and quality
Subramanyam Krishnamurthy: Vegetarian options: We had gone for buffet today. The tandoori rotis were cold and food was not tasty. The rice pudding was cold .On the whole it was a bad first time experience.
Folorunso Olufemi Samuel: Cool and serene. Best ever!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Sean Effel: Great restaurant. I've been a customer for years and seen their many iterations and renovations in Central Square.Food: 4/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Pralhad Kulkarni: No thali!
Jeena G: We went for dinner and ordered samosas,masala tea for starters. And then, naan to share and individual main dish. I ordered chicken vindaloo. The samosas were decent. It wasn't oily at all. I was particularly disappointed with chicken vindaloo, which I ordered at medium spicy, but it was not spicy at all. Masala tea was alright, not the best I've had. Overall, I found the food to be alright, but nothing special. I don't think I'll be returning to this restaurant anytime soon.
Humaid Saleem: Awesome, good
An'Neshia: MUST EAT.. best food I’ve had in Massachusetts so far. I came while they were about to close and the service was still amazing!!!
Bereket Zelealem: Really good
Guy Zylberberg: Came here for the buffet lunch. It's a pretty good deal, but the food itself is just OK.Food: 3/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Ashwin Swaminathan: What a place! I can’t even imagine how its possible to concoct such inedible food. We were unfortunately greeted by a tasteless bowl of water that we were later told was actually supposed to be sambhar. We ordered the vegetarian thali with shahi paneer and malai kofta. Indian food is known worldwide for its spicy fragrant complexity, but this restaurant seems to have replaced all these spices with sugar. Every savory item was somehow oddly sweet, yet the iced masala chai, which should have been sweet, had no sugar in it whatsoever. Aside from this, the dosa was tiny, the rice was undercooked, and an hour after eating here our stomachs grumbled with sickness. The samosa chaat was decent. Overall do not recommend 0/10
Lydia Chew: I ordered a "surprise bag" of leftovers to reduce food waste, so I was hoping that the contents wouldn't have any meat - I figured I had a pretty decent shot since Indian cuisine is pretty vegetarian-friendly, and it was a good bet.My order came with naan, daal, and rice. It was listed as $5 for a $15 value. I wouldn't pay $15 for what you see in the picture, but the $5 price was more than decent. I was really excited for the daal in particular, and it was quite excellent. The naan was also really good, especially hot and fresh on a cold winter day!Vegetarian options: lots of vegetarian options
Saran360: Excellent food and service.Vegetarian options: Pretty good and tasty.
Jeff Klein: Best Indian buffets in Cambridge, and that's saying something around here! The buffet has four vegetarian options (usually a combination saag paneer, korma, aloo gobi, matar paneer, yellow dal), three chicken dishes, naan and pakora. There's also excellent chutneys, raita, and salad. The best part is the rice pudding, which is without question the best I've tasted.Vegetarian options: Always more veggie options than meat, and an excellent variety.
