" I usually order take-out from Masala, and every time I'm blown away! The Chicken Tikka Masala is my favorite—so comforting and delicious. They always seem to get my spice level just right! One detail I appreciate is the quality of their ingredients; everything tastes fresh. I did, however, notice that prices have crept up lately, but the quality makes it worth it to me. I keep returning for their fantastic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a delightful dining experience at Masala Indian Cuisine recently! The momos were absolutely divine, bursting with flavor, and the butter chicken was meltingly tender. I appreciated the friendly service; my waiter was attentive without being intrusive. The ambiance was cozy, perfect for a family dinner. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone craving authentic Indian and Nepalese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Masala! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. The staff is so friendly. I ordered the Momo and the Dal Makhani, and wow, the Momo was on point! So flavorful and filling. The Dal Makhani was creamy and rich, and the garlic naan perfectly complemented it. The place has this cozy vibe that makes it feel like home, which is why I keep coming back. If you want to try Nepalese dishes, this is the place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family loves coming here for the Wednesday night buffet. There is a decent selection, and I find the flavors and authenticity to be excellent. The naan is usually fresh and hot, straight from the oven. However, they could improve the dessert options. Everything else we ordered was spot on. Would recommend this place for a nice family outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic dining experience! The garlic naan was soft and the butter chicken was creamy with just the right spice level. Service was on point, too; the waiter was friendly and recommended the perfect pairings. The ambiance was comfortable and casual, making it a great spot for a family dinner. Would definitely recommend it and will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Masala Indian Cuisine is a hidden gem! The flavors are vibrant, and the dishes come out beautifully presented. I loved their Kashmiri Rogan Josh; it had a depth of flavor that left me wanting more. I was also impressed with the friendly service—everyone seemed genuinely happy to be there. The only drawback was that it was a bit busy that evening, which made for a slightly longer wait for food, but definitely worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Masala last night and enjoyed the experience, although I felt the food was a bit too mild for my palate. The ambiance was cozy, but I would have loved a little more spice in my dishes. The Momo and dal were good, but they could have taken more risks with the seasoning. Service was friendly and attentive, though, which is always appreciated! " (*Curated Review*)
