While on the topic of substantial - both my Chicken Tikka Masala and my friend's Lamb Vindaloo provided us with leftovers that went well beyond the day of our visit. The naan was fantastic - served warm, soft, and perfectly chewy, wrapped in foil. Our food arrived quickly, and a buzzer made it easy to find seating wherever we wanted, without having to hover to know when the order was ready The location is terrific - there's outdoor seating and a spacious indoor area with a bar, a coffee shop, and lots of tables in a robbery themed repurposing of the building.

Simply amazing food! Everything is made from scratch. The flavors are incredible.

With how good the food at Masala Lab was, I knew this place was not to be missed. Finally made it there a few days ago. Spoiler alert: they did not disappoint. My partner and I decided to get two dishes so that we could share two different flavors. We ordered the Masala Pulled Pork and the Butter Chicken 2.0. We got them as a plate, with the pickled veggies and salad. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, and the dressing on the salad was an unexpected yummy bonus. SO GOOD! I will definitely be back for more.

The curry was fresh, well seasoned with a good balance of flavors, and served over perfectly-cooked rice. Service was fast and friendly. I would absolutely come back to try other options.

There's not a lot of Indian food trucks so we were very excited to try this new food truck on their menu. They have a variety of options from chicken tikka Rapp to vegetable korma and many other cuisines from India. The two gentleman that waited on us are the owner operators. They were extremely hospitable, and willing to share with us all and answer our questions that we had about the restaurant. We ordered the Lamb Rogan Josh and the Butter chicken and vegetable samosa with garlic naan. The Lamb Rogan was so tender and a literal spice explosion in your mouth . Wow!!!! The heat level was perfect. You can let them know how hot you want it. The Naan came in garlic or cheese. We chose the garlic. Can you say garlicky? It was yummy. If you love naan and you love garlic you'll love this. The butter chicken was smooth, tender and mildly spiced. It was exactly what you would like in the butter chicken. The samosa was very flavorful and packed with vegetables and spices. Honestly, this place trumps all the Indian places we've tried so far. They serve nice size portions they are shareable and the prices are very competitive. This place is a MUST GO EAT spot. If you can go today and tell them I said hello and keep up the good work. Can't wait to go back and try a few other dishes.

The potato pakora is just straight up fried dough. I thought the first time it was a mistake with my vegetable pakora that they messed up the cook, but these are just as bad. Neither time I ordered pakora was it ACTUALLY pakora. It doesn't even resemble anything I've EVER had anywhere else in 20 years. When I say this is bad, this is baaaaad. The vegetable samosas are MUSH with undercooked dough. Never have I ever had vegetable samosas that are basically fried mashed potatoes. This is SO disgusting I can't eat it. It's so hard to screw up samosas and yet they somehow managed to do so. No whole peas. Nothing even resembling a piece of potato. Just...MUSH. The rice was massively overcooked, dry, and crunchy. I'm so embarrassed for them. You all should be ashamed to sell this mess.

I liked the mint sauce but I enjoyed them without any sauce as well. It's pretty mild if you're not good with spice (my partner thought it was spicy but he doesn't eat any spicy food lol)
