Masala Corner in Rutland was exactly the kind of comforting Indian meal we needed after a long ski day. The interiors were traditional, restaurant was spacious. We ordered chaat papdi, paneer butter masala, garlic naan and rotis. The paneer was the star, clearly house-made and melt-in-the-mouth soft, rich without being heavy. Rotis came out fresh and hot, and everything tasted straight off the stove, warm, soulful, and deeply satisfying. Special shoutout to Uday for the exceptional service, attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming. A lovely little gem if you're craving honest, homestyle Indian food in the area. read more

Shoutout to the staff here because they worked so hard to provide a good experience to all their customers while short staffed. My friends and I were really hungry and looking for a place to sit 9 of us late in the night. I'm so glad we found this and waited for a table to open it. I had their garlic naan, chicken tikka masala, mango lassi and gulab jamun. I think their tikka masala and mango lassi were on the sweeter side to be honest but they weren't unpleasant. I loved the tenderness of the chicken and the sauce complimented it well. My favorite had to be the naan because I could just eat that non stop. I wish I had ordered more to take with me! The gulab jamun was so delicious and the perfect bite after the meal. Would definitely return if I'm ever in the area again! read more

Masala Corner - Didnt even have time to take a photo the food was so good - Indian Near Me - Rutland, Vermont

The food was amazing and instead of having us just try one item that was vegan they made us a whole sampler of their vegan items! All the staff was super friendly and made us feel as if we were family. Happily explained each dish and helped my son decide on what to get! We are visiting a cabin near by and were thankful to find some vegan food not far from where we were staying. Highly recommend the cabbage and potato that was definitely my favorite! read more

Excellent Indian dishes in Rutland. Good mix of spices in the curry. Flaky Samosas and stuffed aloo paratha. Ambience could be a bit more upscale and bathrooms could be cleaner. Reasonably priced and service was quick on a weekday lunch. read more

amazing food , service , great experience. if ya haven't dined there please do soon! the flavors and choices :: will so be back!

We have been enjoying the delicious food by Sunita and her family since they were operating takeout in the Weston convenience store/ gas station location. The selections and food are totally worth the 45 minute drive to their restaurant in Rutland. There are menu staples as well as new and celebratory dishes that match the season or cultural celebration. Family favorites are butter chicken, chicken vindaloo (mild), palak paneer and the samosas. So many naan and bread choices! There are many vegetarian and gluten free options and the menu is clearly marked. How amazing to get GF naan made to order! The family and service is friendly and we try something new each time we go. read more

We had a party of ten and the food was delicious. The meals were brought out promptly. The service was excellent. They were also mindful and accommodating, especially for one guest who has a nut allergic. The waiters were very attentive and the ambiance was very nice. All of us were very pleased. If you are interested in Indian food, I strongly recommend Masala Corner. read more

Stale food Very rude service and serving Dine in | Dinner | $50-100 I had a terrible dinner here, table was a mess when I first arrived. All of the dishes had black specks falling from the dirty ceiling. Do yourself a favor a look up next time you dine. That stuff is going in your food. Appetizers were cold in the middle, which tells me they were microwaved. Everything was salty and my glass of wine tasted like it was straight from the gas station, I left without taking a second sip. I went in looking for authentic Indian cuisine and genuinely disliked everything I ate. So no - I would not like a box for my left-overs. Food: 1/5 | Service: 1/5 | Atmosphere: 1/5 Noise level Very loud, hard to hear Parking space Difficult to find parking Parking options Paid street parking Kid-friendliness Not at all read more

Food was stale Services were not good and available!! We had to wait for a waiter for long time! Had to call 3-4 times. Ambiance Very old and broken tables and chairs. Floor is uneven! read more

The food at this restaurant was delicious and the service warm and friendly. We loved that it's a family run business serving authentic Indian food. We stumbled on this place on a dreary, rainy day and found that it was just what we needed to warm us inside and out! We will definitely be back. read more

The best Indian food I have had since I was in India... the waiter was a young, very bright and helpful guy who obviously is excited about his job. He said he loves to bring back sparkling clean plates because the chef gets so happy, she becomes giddy! The service was speedy and the food was UNBELIEVABLY delicious. I got the sag aloo, which was so spicy -- per my request -- and absolutely perfect. My husband got the chicken biryani that he vacuumed up and was finished before I was even halfway done! We got the gluten free roti, which was very yummy. The serving sizes are 'small' in American standards, but the flavors and the quality of the food fills you right up! We went earlier this evening on our way to Killington and we will 100% stop by any time we pass through Rutland. Come support this amazing establishment!!!!! read more

We had a delicious lunch here last week! Our service was great and he was very attentive. Will definitely go back!

i got to go from here on a saturday evening. the interior of the restaurant is very welcoming, with warm yellow lighting and nice decor, and the staff were equally as welcoming and friendly. i ordered the butter chicken, chicken korma, plain naan, and vegetable samosas all with medium spice. the flavors were deep and the spice was taste-able but not SPICY spicy. the service was very fast (15 min to complete the takeout order) and everything was delicious and fresh. read more

Masala Corner - butter chicken, plain naan - Indian Near Me - Rutland, Vermont

We finally got here to try their food. And the food was everything we hoped it would be! Very tasty, friendly service, and choices that satisfied the non-meat eater among us. We had butter, chicken, an eggplant dish, and palak paneer with garlic naan. So yummy! I urge you to try this restaurant so we can retain some more culinary diversity in our region! The owners checked to see if we were happy, which we were! My husband was given chalk to put his rating on the outside window. read more

Anyone who loves good Indian food, this is the place. Reasonably priced and very satisfying. I can't believe I'd never had Butter Chicken before and now I'm hooked. Also, best naan ever. The owners/servers were extra helpful and so kind. I highly recommend Masala Corner. read more

We came here on a friday night as a date night and were craving for Indian food. This place did not disappoint. There are two entrances - one for lunch and one for dinner. Both can lead to both areas. The dining area was beautiful with the decor. It was not very crowded when we went and the restaurant lets you take your time. My husband and I knew what we wanted and ordered a - saag paneer (more green that I am used to but doesn't impact the flavor; has a nice kick to it. - garlic naan (wow, I would have gotten 2 of these if i could) - chicken malai korma (they used dark meat which was a nice touch). While the flavors were slightly different from what we are used to (in NY), the taste was amazing on all dishes and we would come here again and will bring our kid with us next time. read more

Beautiful dining room, absolutely delicious Indian food all homemade with spices that come directly from India. Wonderful owners who are warm and make every diner feel special. A home run. read more

This place is great. I've eaten here a few times. You can taste the high quality ingredients. The dining room space is very attractive and the service is solid. It would be nice if they had some Indian beers, which they explained were difficult to obtain in Vermont. read more

The food is terrific. We are big fans of Indian cuisine, and the cooking here is on a par with the we've had in NYC and Vancouver. The atmosphere is utilitarian rather than fancy, but so are the prices. We're going to be regulars. Great variety, including many vegetarian options. read more

amazing saag with paneer and chicken - we eat a lot of Indian food and this was the best! really. try the garlic naan!

This is a great, authentic Indian restaurant. I went for lunch and they have a special of two entrees, rice, and naan for $15.99. I had chicken masala curry and palak paneer with garlic naan. The curry was delicious with just the right amount of spice. The service was very quick and friendly. I sat in the front of the restaurant with many windows that let in a lot of light. The portions were reasonable and I highly recommend this unique restaurant in Rutland. read more

I've had a lot of butter chickens and they always vary considerably, but this was the epitome of what it should taste like. Really fantastic! Went well with the garlic naan that was totally loaded with herbs, instead of just a little garlic like some places. The waiter was attentive and friendly, seemed to really care if we liked our food. Definitely recommend this place! read more

This restaurant has great food. My well-traveled son visiting from Boston said Marsala Corner has the best Indian food he has ever tasted! I agree! The service is not speedy only because it takes a little while to prepare the food just the way we like it. My husband is vegan and likes his extremely spicy and I like mine mild. The chefs are amazing and get it right every time. The waiters are attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is delightful with tasteful and culturally interesting decor in the dining rooms. The two giant chandeliers are beautiful! read more

New Indian restaurant in Rutland vermont. They are open for lunch from 11:00 to 2:00 then they close and they open again for the dinner hours. You enter the space on the corner where there is a take out counter and casual tables for eating. There's a buffet for $11.99, which includes a meat dish, a vegetable dish, rice, and bread, that includes nan, parata or samosa. We got there 5 minutes before 2:00, so we took our food as take out and walked up to the library to sit in the outdoor tables to eat it in the shade. Everything was very tasty. We sampled all for vegetarian dishes. He let us get two veg dishes instead of one veg one meat. While we were waiting for him to prepare our garlic naan we looked at the full serve dining room which they use for dinner and it's absolutely beautiful. The building used to be a bank and the safe is still there. Make sure you take a look at that safe door because it's amazing. We haven't been for dinner yet but we fully expect to go back. The lunch food was delicious. read more

We have eaten at Masala Corner, maybe a year or maybe two ago. we thought it was good food with some attention from the owners. So this year, today we decided to drive from killington to go there again. The service was excellent, but the food was all pre-made or frozen store food that was bought and re-heated. this explains why all the food is just semi-warm (many reviews state that). our best guess was that their entire afternoon menu is frozen food, heated and garnished with fresh stuff - like the chicken kabab skewers, or the naans, or the samosas... we arrived at 4:30 and they claimed their chef comes in at 5, and the sous chef may or may not be able to make something. So after 5pm we got good onion pakoras and they were freshly made but everything else was pre-heated frozen food that tasted awful. One cannot in good faith claim to have an indian restaurant if one does not make naans and serve frozen naans that are heated up. Even if it is for a small non-suspecting lunch crowd. That is awful form. read more

Looking for a local restaurant that could accommodate my particular Whole Food Plant Based (WFPB) eating habit, my daughter hit upon Masala Corner in the heart of downtown Rutland. It being a typical Rutland Saturday night, we had our choice of street parking and chose a convenient spot opposite the restaurant. Walking into the vacant establishment (it was 5pm and they had just opened), we were greeted cordially and shown to a high top in the dine-in section (see photo). After the waiter identified which dishes could be made WFPB and oil free, my daughter ordered the Fish Curry with a side of garlic naan bread, and I opted for the Broccoli Masala. Given that we were the only patrons present, the wait time seemed a bit long before the fish curry was brought out with a bowl of white basmati rice. The fish turned out to be a generous portion of salmon sunk in a pungent curry sauce, which my daughter said was delicious. I had to wait a bit longer for my veggie meal. Once it arrived, I spooned it enthusiastically onto an ample bed of basmati rice--luscious looking broccoli florets, potato cubes, and tomato chunks. The vegetables were fresh and neither over nor under-cooked. Once the initial wave of saltiness receded, a delicately flavorful seasoning bobbed to the surface to tickle my taste buds. We enjoyed our meal, the background music, and this welcoming slice of India on a downtown Rutland street corner. I look forward to a return visit to try the red lentil dish. read more

Food, service, and decor all great. Super friendly people and great suggestions! Will go again!

Excellent! I highly recommend Masala Corner. I ordered butter chicken, dal, and garlic Naan.

The lovely people at Masala Corner really do a great job. As a ex-pat British guy who misses a good curry, this is a joy. Their food is exceptional and they do good offers for those on a budget. There is a lunch cafe area and a more traditional restaurant. One thing I like is that you can order "off the menu" if you know what you like such as a meat or vegetarian Thali. For those unfamiliar with them - a thali is like a lunch option with multiple mini dishes including rice and naan. You get a mini starter and a dessert. A bit like a Japanese bento box. It's also a great way to try a few different dishes so you can get an introduction to Indian cuisine. They have service with a smile, please support this local business as they are great. read more

This is a very nice Indian restaurant, and in my opinion is the best that the region has to offer. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. They have a nice lunch special where you can order two choices of vegetable curries, or meat curries for those who aren't vegetarian. I'm a vegetarian, and I find the the vegetarian options tasty and fresh. Even the Basmati rice is fluffy and nicely cooked. One Wednesday's they even have a buffet. The seating in the front room is casual. One can also ask to sit in the more formal restaurant side, which is cozy, and even has an interesting glass roof towards the back. I frequent this restaurant, and I am very grateful is is here. I particularly enjoy the Palak Paneer (spinach and homemade cheese), the dal (spiced yellow lentil thick soup-like dish) and their breads. The food is flavorful and spicy, but not spicy-hot. read more

I was looking forward to a big dinner after a day of skiing. What a huge disappointment. The pitato dumpling while tasty had a laughable presentation. I am sure traditional Indians do not eat dumplings on an old hamburger roll with potato chips on the side. My chicken and rice was luke warm with one piece of dark chicken meat on the bottom. Finally, for dinner prices the portions were very small. I will not be coming back. read more
