" Disappointed would be an understatement. I've been looking forward to trying authentic Indian food at Masala Bay Grill, but my experience left much to be desired. The chicken tikka masala felt bland and lacked the depth I expected. Moreover, after waiting a long time to get our food, I felt unsatisfied with the portion sizes. The only saving grace was the lovely view; the location is definitely a big plus. I hope they can improve their food quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Although we enjoyed the view, I couldn't shake the disappointment I felt post-meal. The portions felt quite small for the price we paid. While the samosas were enjoyable, I found the chicken curry unremarkable at best. I expected a wonderful experience based on previous reviews, so needless to say, I likely won't return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the most delightful dining experience at Masala Bay Grill! The staff was incredibly friendly, and the ambiance was delightful with a beautiful waterfront view. I started with the Bhel Puri which was spot on! For my main course, I had the Butter Chicken, which was creamy and delicious, perfect alongside the garlic naan. I ended with the Chocolate Mosaic cake, a must-try! I can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Everything about Masala Bay Grill was wonderful! The staff was accommodating, and we were seated by the water, which made for a perfect evening. The chicken curry was heavenly, and the garlic naan was some of the best I've had. I highly recommend the chocolate dessert as well—super rich! I am already looking forward to my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely delightful! Every aspect of my meal exceeded my expectations at Masala Bay Grill. The butter chicken was creamy, perfectly seasoned, and the naan was fresh out of the oven, which made the entire experience lovely. The serene waterfront environment only added to the ambiance. You can bet I’ll be back for more soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family dined here last week and it was a pleasant experience overall. The outdoor seating with the view of the bay was beautiful. We ordered several dishes, including butter chicken and samosas. While the butter chicken was creamy and delicious, the samosas were just okay and could use a bit more spice. Service was friendly but a bit on the slower side. Overall, nice place for a family meal and we plan to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Masala Bay Grill is the perfect spot for a casual dinner with a view! I was amazed by how friendly the staff were—even during a busy night. The spicy chicken curry was satisfying and packed with flavor. Although I felt that the portions could be a bit more generous, it didn't take away from the experience. If you're seated on the patio when the sun sets, you'll be in for a treat! I will definitely return to try more items on their menu. " (*Curated Review*)
