The small and cozy Masala Restaurant greets you with a warm hello and excellent customer service; servers are ready for questions. The food was very, very good. My son tried the Chicken 65; he loved the chicken, which wasn't very spicy. Great food and service. read more

First time eating Indian food so I thought I'd try this place. I went in for takeout. I ordered the buttered chicken which came with rice. The gentleman that works there asked me if I wanted naan bread which I've never heard of but said sure The ambience is real nice , super clean too read more

I am blessed that I live within a thrown stones distance!!!! I love everything about this restaurant. The young woman Sahara that works up from is so kind and friendly, she's very helpful and will make sure you have a great meal. All of the dishes I have tried are incredible. From the Vegetable Vindalo, to the garlic naan, to the vegetable samosa, you will not be disappointed. But be SURE to order the Mango Sticky Rice for dessert!!!! It is INCREDIBLE! I always get some to take home too :) read more

My new quest is to find the best naan near me... Got 3 kinds of naan: garlic, onion, and chili. The garlic was pretty good, but definitely need to dip it in something, and also probably wouldn't order that one again. The chili was alright, very spicy (obviously), again needs to be dipped in something, wouldn't order again. The onion was the best one out of the bunch. It was actually an onion kulcha (naan stuffed with onion). This was the only one that didn't need any dipping sauce. I will say, the actual products don't look anything like the pictures on their ordering website :( Also ordered the Tamarind chutney- pretty good but more sweet than spicy. This specific chutney didn't pair well with the naan we ordered either. The service was great though. Very friendly and very very quick service. FYI- they have a sign on the outside of the building that says lunch buffet but once inside there is a smaller sign that says the buffet has been discontinued. I don't know what their other food is like which is why I would maybe recommend this place. read more

My favorite place to order Indian food. I try to get one new dish to try with my favorite Butter Chicken. This time I went for two new dishes, Aloo Saag and Baingan Bharta. Roti instead of naan. I honestly could not choose which of the two new dishes that I liked more. But whichever one it is, they both knocked the Butter Chicken down the list. The vegetable samosas are always a hit. Staff is always so friendly. read more

First timer, will be back. Portions for the price point were good. Loveeedddd the butter chicken and vegetarian samosa. Can't wait to go and try some more options. Fairly decent sized menu. When you walk in, you can smell the warm spices, but not to where it's overpowering. Our waiter was very attentive, friendly, and courteous. Would go back just to talk to him! Chairs are size friendly, mostly accessible as well. Traditional music playing softly in the back ground was nice. read more

I've come in several times over the last couple of years and the food has always been very good. I usually come for lunch and it's usually not too busy. My typical dishes are the veg korma or saag paneer. Always very flavorful. read more

Really wonderful place. Friendly service and the owner came out a few times to check in and make sure we were happy. It's a little cheaper than a lot of the other Indian spots around and is just so delicious. My wife's favorite tikka masala in the area and really up there for me too. These guys deserve to be so busy! read more

I come here often, the owner is always so kind and the food is consistently amazing! We are on a first name basis that's how often I eat here read more

Really friendly service here, the waitress was helpful and prompt. There was a bit of a strong paint smell when we first came in, but the smell of the food quickly took over. The food was hot when it all came out. It all had good flavor, a nice kick of heat. The chicken was really tender on both dishes with chicken. I wouldn't say any one item was stand out. Solidly good and very happy with it all, I'd come back if I were in the area again. The Mango Lassi was so yummy! read more

WOW. This place is nothing short of spectacular. First, the place looks pretty and is very clean inside, and smells fantastic! Secondly, the food is amazing. The menu is HUGE and for a vegetarian, there was so much to choose from that I had trouble picking one, and I plan on going back to try everything. If you get something with Korma sauce, get the garlic naan to dip in it! The combination is to die for. It's also not expensive, for three people who each got meals, naan and specialty drinks (lassis) it was around $70. The staff was also amazing, going above and beyond. Our waiter was so nice, and she recommended food that she thought each of us would like for the next time. Overall, fantastic experience, fantastic food. I will definitely be coming back here! read more

Love their Korma, it's the only place I'll go in Rhode Island for Indian food. Great people too!

The atmosphere is meh but the food is good. Service was attentive. Saag paneer, tandoori chicken, samosas were all excellent. Worth trying especially if you live in central Rhode Island. read more

Great authentic clean food. Very cute and clean interior. Waiter was incredibly kind and attentive and was able to accommodate our group of 8 with ease. Food came out very fast and was very delicious. Would definitely recommend! read more

I recently ordered on Uber eats from masala. Normally for a protein I order chicken. Unfortunately this time around, I went with goat. The order was about 80% bone disguised as meat chunks. I'm pretty mad about it as usually these guys are quality. I shouldn't be constantly picking bone shards out of every bite. Maybe they have a new chef, but extremely lazy or a dirty thing to do to a returning customer. I made a complaint on Uber eats so not sure it went though. If you decide to order goat, make sure you check your order if you can. As you can see by my photos it's very large bones as well as shards of bones in each bite. That's a food safety issue in my opinion. On top of me not getting my value in what I paid for since most of my meal was bones and cartilage. 1/10 for this order read more

Great food and service at Masala! While visiting the area, I consulted Yelp and stumbled upon this little restaurant. It wasn't crowded for a Saturday night. The inside is very basic and they happen to be playing classic hindi songs. We ordered the saag paneer, chicken karahi, and an onion naan. Everything was delicious. The saag paneer and the naan were the standouts. The chicken was a bit chewy, but the overall flavor was good. The Naan was baked with spring onions and very tasty. Our server, was very friendly and efficiently worked all 3 occupied tables, while hustling to assist all the take-out orders. And, there was certainly a revolving door of pick-up orders while were there. Masala appears to be a popular Indian restaurant in the area. read more

Cute & clean place. They have a nice menu and the foos was really good. Service is also top notch! Will definitely eat here again.

After reading past reviews on Masala Restaurant, I was very encouraged to visit the place. The restaurant was empty but the hostess/waitress was a very engaging young lady that seated me at the window table. After reviewing the menu I ordered a mixed green house salad, tandoori chicken served with basmati white rice, naan garlic bread. I also ordered the curry lamb. Once the food was ready it was served all at once. Everything was served hot and was favorable. I was very pleased. This restaurant has a very diverse client based that was coming into the restaurant to pickup take out orders. The service was wonderful. I'm happy that I found a non pretentious mom and pop local restaurant serving the West Warwick Rhode Island neighborhood. I will definitely return when I'm in town. read more

I'm a vindaloo guy... I've peeped this place for a minute and popped up on them fifteen minutes early for atogo order... Very hospitable, took my order, and it was ready before their opening time... So, usually i go to places and they give you slightly less rice then you want, not them. I asked for a very spicy vindaloo, and the flavor was good and it was spicy. This is my area Indian spot now. And they have a lunch buffet... Recommend a visit definitely... And they have quite a bit of protein... I'm 6'1" 240, athletic build and I tend to eat quite a bit. I have have more than half left over... read more

Amazing food! I've been looking for a Indian place that does Samosa Chaat since I moved to the area and they did not disappoint. Slightly different than what I'm used to but none the less, flavorful and delicious. The Lamb tikka masala was also great. The Lamb was super tender and the sauce was delicious. The mango lassi was smooth and thick and had a great mango flavor. There's a parking lot and plenty of parking . A little weird though because the most of the lot is at incline but had no issues finding a spot. read more

My daughter and I had a wonderful lunch at Masala. We both wanted to try the butter chicken and we agree with other reviews that it is delicious! The host / waiter / owner(?) was super nice and friendly and provided wonderful service. I enjoyed the Indian music as it added nicely to the ambiance. Will definitely go back to explore the menu some more... read more

Okay so took an overnight trip to Warwick/ providence area and wanted some Indian food. Go to Masala. This was was incredible. The staff, 10/10. The food 10/10. Best decision we made on our trip was trying Masala. The apps were delicious. The side sauces were refreshing. The main dishes were perfectly seasoned and the naan to die for. Do yourself a favor and check out Masala if you are in Rhode Island. We will definitely come back next time we are in RI! read more

I love Indian food, and I'd never been here before. I've read about it and found the reviews positive. I have ordered delivery twice now and both times, the food was delicious. We have tried both the chicken and lamb Korma and they was delicious, way better than what we are used to here in East Greenwich. The garlic naan was a perfect thing to help us with the chicken dishes. We also tried the chicken samosas and they were tasty and done just right. We plan on going there in person and trying a lot of dishes. I highly recommend Massala and would give it 10 stars!! read more

I looked forward to my dine in experience because I had two good delivery experiences. Dine in was disappointing... the ambiance was depressing... the restaurant decor is dark and aged. The restroom is aged. The food was ok. Service was meh. Now that I've dine in I'm probably going to pass on delivery going forward. read more

Another great meal at Masala. Located near to all your favorite shopping centers in Bald Hill road tucked in there West Warwick, RI and worth the drive from distance. The food is exceptional and freshly prepared if eating in like we did or with take out. The aroma and spice is wonderfully combined into both Indian and Pakistan traditional dishes that are worth the trip, like we did from North Providence! The service was personable and so very attentive and I know that Sahara will take good care of you too! Don't miss out on this local gem! read more

Excellent Indian Cuisine. Butter chicken was superbly tender. The food was all delicious. The server was kind and answered helpfully all our questions about the dishes. We also had Mango Chicken, Honey Ginger Naan, and Vegetable Samosas. All very good. I prefer this food to all other Indian Cuisine I've tried in the area. Would recommend. read more

Wow. We have been wanting to try this spot for a few months and finally got ourselves there for lunch. There were music videos from Nepal playing on the TV when we arrived which fit perfectly with the decor. We were greeted as soon as we entered and offered any table we preferred to be seated. We checked out the lunch buffet immediately, and with the food limitations I have I was sadly not able to try it. Some of the offerings I remember on the buffet include a garden salad, paneer, lentils, a fresh green bean and potato dish, a couple of chicken dishes, rice pudding for dessert, spicy sauces to add to your dish, basmati rice and more. They've got most appetites covered. If you want naan with your buffet, the waitress will bring you some fresh from the oven. When we arrived there were a few tables occupied and more arrived after us keeping the waitress moving. Although not a full dining room, there was a respectable showing for a meal at 2:30 in the afternoon. We ordered off the menu starting with the vegetable samosas. This is a dish I make myself because I like it so much. Compared to other locations I have sampled this item, Masala did it best. The crust is light and flaky, the interior has just enough spice to be tasty without offending the tongue and two spicy side sauces are provided if you want an extra 'umph'. I am completely happy with this dish. My dining companion ordered Vindaloo, which is a favorite. This one is very nice. Hot and spicy, but again, without being offensive. If you like spice this one should satisfy. If you need more, ask for some hot sauce, they will be happy to oblige. The rice arrives in a separate dish and was light and fluffy. My lamb kabob is served with a side salad and wedge of lemon. There is hearty portion on that plate. The kabob is well seasoned. Spicy while not at all 'hot'; a very nice dish. The sauce provided on the side is also spicy, but again, not hot and a nice complement to the lamb. I gave the salad a squeeze of lemon and a little salt and was a nice compliment to the meal. One order of naan was also on the menu and was used to sample the vindaloo (for me) besides enjoying it with my lamb. This is a very nice naan. Very light while still having that naan texture. I find this one to be ever so slightly sweet which makes it a perfect accompaniment for hot and spicy food. The waitress was a young woman who was constantly on the move during our visit. She was very polite and professional and answered all our questions. The chef also came out of the kitchen during our visit to make sure we were happy with our meals, which we assured him we were. We brought more than half our meals home and I had a bit more of the naan and lamb before putting it in the fridge for later. Still delicious. You really should give this place a try. read more

We order delivery from here all the time. The food is soooo good and flavorful. This place was my first time trying Indian food and yet somehow it is like a comfort food whenever we order it. It just gives that home cooked feel. I am a vegetarian also and there are so many options. My favorite items are the vegetable samosas, rice, and honey ginger naan. read more

We ordered during covid-19. The Shrimp Masala, Lamb Saag, Chicken Karahi, Vegetable Pakora, and Naan were all delicious and super flavorful. We got mild spice for everything but I still found it a little spicier than expected. However, I have a low spice threshold. The food was good so I kept pushing and was able to eat a good amount before I had to stop. Also excellent the day after. The portion was smaller than I expected for the price. You get a pint for each curry. We plan to come back again. read more

I love Indian food, and I'd never been here before. I was looking for Indian takeout in the area, found this and gave it a try. As soon as I stepped through the door, I knew I made a great choice. The restaurant smells incredible! Spices interweave through the air inside, the staff is so kind and friendly, and the set up is cozy and adorable! My husband ordered lamb tikka masala, I got chicken tikka masala, and we split garlic naan. The food was absolutely delectable! Would definitely return to this restaurant when we return to the Warwick area, and I'd 100% recommend it to anyone I know. Thanks, Masala! read more

Your delicious sauces, delightful naan, and delectable lamb tikka marsala left me swooning. If you had only served wine, I very possibly would have proposed marriage. My stomach was so in love that I ordered another meal from Masala through Grubhub the very next day. It did not disappoint.
