    Garlic Naan
    Faith R.

    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.

    Garlic Naan

    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.

    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!

    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!

    Saag Paneer and Chicken Karahi
    Leena S.

    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.

    Goat and lamb vindaloo...
    Kyel R.

    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...

    Bone chunk
    John M.

    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

    Garlic naan (2)

    They are so sweet and friendly and the food is delicious! My favorite was the garlic naan. They play lovely music in the restaurant so I recommend eating in the restaurant not just ordering take out!

    Lamb Curry+ Tandoori Chicken with Naans bread
    Glenn J D.

    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.

    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!

    Mango Lassi
    Stephanie L.

    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.

    I am so glad Masala moved to Warwick! It's such a great deal- $10 for a quick, healthy lunch buffet- you can't beat it!

    Does the warwick location still have the lunch buffet?

    Not anymore

    Is this a second larger location to Masala in north providence-the menu looks the same?

    No. She used to own the one in North Providence but is no longer affiliated with them.

    Curious about the lunch buffet. What days and at what time are they active? Thanks! Solved.

    Lunch buffet is tuesday to friday 11:30 to 2:39 Sat and sun 12:00 to 3:00 Monday closed

    We ordered several appetizers and entrees for our first time eating here and were delighted by all…read moreof them! The waitstaff was very helpful and gave great recommendations about what to try. The location is also convenient with parking. We'll definitely be coming back more than once to try new dishes!

    As someone who loves Indian food, I'm always excited to try a new place. I ordered from Kun Kabob…read moreand Curry through Uber Eats and was looking forward to giving them a try. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. I ordered a veggie naan roll and an order of aloo tikki. The aloo tikki was unlike any I've had before, and not in a good way. Instead of being crispy and flavorful, it reminded me of something you would find in the frozen food section of a supermarket. The patties were small, dense, and lacked the texture and seasoning I expect from restaurant-quality aloo tikki. I can't really comment on the veggie naan roll because I was sent a falafel naan roll instead. The roll itself was quite large and came with a side of French fries. Unfortunately, the fries tasted as though they had been fried in the same oil as fish, which made them unappetizing. The falafel roll was also very dry. I ended up pouring the sauces that came with the aloo tikki onto the roll just to make it palatable. While the portions were generous, the food quality and order accuracy left a lot to be desired. As much as I love Indian cuisine, there are far better options in the surrounding area. Sadly, this was a one-time visit for me, and I will not be ordering again.
