" This was my first visit to Vaanga and I was impressed by the variety of dishes available. I ordered the Chicken Kothu Paratha and it was bursting with flavor! The coconut chutney was the cherry on top. Service was attentive, and the place had a casual atmosphere that I loved. I would recommend this place to anyone craving some good Indian food when in Boston! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food at Vaanga was decent, it felt more like fast food and lacked a fine dining experience. The ambiance was vibrant, but I felt the dosas needed more preparation time for that authentic taste. I didn’t feel satisfied since the portion size was small. Good for a quick bite, but not for a full meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Vaanga has been one of my favorites for Indian food! Their Aloo Tikki Burger is simply delicious, paired with crispy idli fries. The atmosphere makes you feel at home with its vibrant decor. My only issue was the wait time during lunch hours, but that's expected in a good restaurant. Would I come back? Definitely! " (*Curated Review*)

" Vaanga never fails me! Each time I’m in Boston, I ensure I drop by for their signature Masala Dosa. It’s always so crispy and full of flavors! Today I also tried their Chaat and it was just as good! I enjoy the cozy vibe of the restaurant, perfect for a casual meal. Quick service is an added bonus! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really excited to try Vaanga after hearing friends rave about their Dosa. I opted for the Superstar Dosa and it was delicious! Also had the Paneer Kathi Roll which was flavorful. However, I had a pretty long wait for my food, which was disappointing. This could use a bit of improvement since I just wanted to enjoy my meal in peace without the long wait. Still, the food definitely makes it worth a return visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn’t impressed with my experience at Vaanga. My Kothu Paratha was greasy and I felt I wasted my money. They could have offered something new. I was disappointed with my experience overall and doubt if I'd recommend it to anyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a blast! Vaanga serves great food, and their Dosa is amazing! I tried a bunch of things off the menu and was pleased with everything—other highlights include the Paneer Tikka and Lamb Burgers! The atmosphere is friendly, and the service, though a bit slow, was courteous. I’ll definitely come back on my next visit to Boston! " (*Curated Review*)
