    Jhol Momo
    Apex S.

    Wow. Just wow. We ordered takeout and got two types of momos, one veggie and one chicken, in two different sauces, jhol and hariyali. First of all, just the fact that they have these different sauces for the momos like jhol, hariyali, and tandoori put them a notch above the rest. On top of that, the flavors were absolutely drool worthy. The momos were delicious by themselves but then you have the sauce and that elevated the dish to the next level. I'm glad we ordered takeout because we licked the bowls clean. The order was ready fast, arrived in basically no time, and was piping hot. Great flavor, and great value for money!

    Garlic Naan, Saag Paneer, and Chicken Kadhai Special

    My wife and I stumbled into Momo Masala on a summer Jamaica Plain evening, and it immediately felt like we'd found someone's cozy kitchen halfway around the world. The space has that "neighborhood gem" energy -- small, warm, and full of spice aromas that make you hungrier the longer you sit. We started with the Samosa Chaat, and honestly, it set the tone for the whole meal -- tangy, crunchy, and full of flavor layers that made it hard to stop eating. The Saag Paneer was rich and comforting, and the Chicken Kadhai had just the right balance of spice and savoriness. The Garlic Naan came out warm, buttery, and perfect for scooping everything up (and yes, we definitely fought over the last piece). What really stood out, though, was the staff. They were genuinely kind and attentive -- the kind of service that makes you feel like they actually care if you're enjoying your meal. And for all that food, the bill came to around $60 -- incredible value for how flavorful and filling everything was. If you're craving authentic Nepalese and Indian comfort food without the pretense, Momo Masala should be at the top of your list. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit.

    Ordered food for takeout. Everything was well packaged. The portions are very large for the price! Everything tasted really good. I would order from here again!

    Tandoori Momo

    I tried Tandoori veg Momo for the first time. It's interesting as it's similar to dumpling but different. I'm ok with the fillings but the sauce is good. But the sauce is very salty. The mango lassi is ok. The mango flavor is not that strong. I also tried the vegManchurian (Indo-Chinese) dish. It is my first time too. Even though it doesn't remind me of anything Chinese, but the taste is the best of the day. Even though it's very salty again. I'm not sure if they were designed to eat with bread/naan/rice. I ordered medium spiciness and it has the right kick (American level spicy). I gave 3 stars mainly for the saltiness of the food. The service is good. And parking is easy to find around the block. They have tables available on Friday night without a reservation.

    Hands down some of the best Indian food in Boston! We got takeout but the resteraunt itself seemed very busy with both diners and people getting takeout. The food was beyond flavorful and tasty. Very reasonably priced as well compared to the other Indian resteraunts in the city. Cannot recommend this place enough! Definitely a must when coming to Boston

    Garlic Naan

    Momo Masala remains our favorite go-to restaurant in JP. From the courteous and patient staff to the delicious food, we've thoroughly enjoyed every visit to Momo Masala. The chili momos are an absolutely staple in our orders and we would definitely recommend them. The lamb curry is delicious and we've ordered it several times, and it consistently delivers. Our cocktails were pretty run-of-the-mill, but we don't visit for the drinks.... It's all about the food here! We will be back for sure.

    Chicken Momo Masala
    Alejandra H.

    Came with a friend after a long walk at the park and the food definitely satisfied our hunger! It is a casual and friendly establishment serving delicious Nepali and Indian cuisine. We got the momo masala, chicken tikka masala, and garlic naan. It was my first time having momos and it was SO GOOD! I definitely would come back for these. The waiter didn't come and check in, but if we needed a refill of our water she would kindly and quickly did so after we asked.

    Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Momo Masala
    Elias G.

    This is the third time I've come and was very happy with it again. We got a couple different things, but the chicken momo masala was particularly noteworthy! Service was very friendly and courteous. It was also fairly calm inside. Highly recommend!

    2 Piece Vegetarian Samosa delicious and filled with yummy filling.
    Michael D.

    Ordered a takeout order food ready right on time. We were greeted with a smile and walked away with food ready to get back home. New restaurants have there challenges, but this one is running along nicely and the food is to die for. See photos for more.

    WOW! What a treat to welcome Himalayan food to JP. And such incredible food it is. Make sure you try not just the classic Indian dishes like tikka masala and palak paneer, but the momos from the end of the menu. I haven't had Himalayan food before and really enjoy the combination of spices. A+ for allergy safety, lots of options for people with nut or wheat allergies, and a big vegan menu! Momo does a lot of take out business and they're fast and reliable. Eating in is also very pleasant with a bright sunny space and extremely good waitstaff. I enjoyed the music and the ambiance in general. There aren't many tables, so on busier nights you might need a reservation. There is one big table in a separate area that would be nice for a group of 8-10. The best part of eating in was eating the food right out of the oven- the garlic naan smelled so good and tasted crispy and delicious. I love this restaurant and I'm so glad they opened!

    Rice that comes with Chicken Curry.

    Great to have a Momo place in the neighborhood. Ambiance: Decent, sitting, tables, decor, etc. However, place seems a bit small. That being said I got a table right away, went around 6:15 PM. Service: No complaints here, the staff are friendly, and they did allow me to do a half and half on the types of momo, which let me try two types. Food: I got medium level spice, so wasn't too spicy, but also intentional because wanted to see how flavors were. The flavors in the momo were great. I ordered Chicken Tandoori Momo and the Chicken Hariwali Momo Masala. I preferred the Hariwali. They give 10 in one order, took the rest home, so would recommend splitting the order if with someone. Laccha Paratha was good. GREAT chicken curry, the blend of spices, bell pepper, onion reminded me a a bit of Kanda Bateta Nu Shak. My next item to try will likely be the Eggplant Bhartha, there menu seems to have a lot of variety.

    Chicken tikka masala and vegetable pakora
    Ashley L.

    We picked up takeout from Momo Masala and were very impressed! The most noteworthy dish was definitely the veggie pakora. We ate the whole box in minutes! The pakora had the perfect mix of veggies and the sauces and chutneys it came with were INCREDIBLE. We also got the chicken tikka masala and garlic naan which were good, but not the best we've ever had - a hint too much coriander in the Masala for my liking. Regardless we would definitely order again and next time are getting TWO orders of veggie pakoras!

    Veg Momo Masala, Vegetable Biryani, 2 Piece Vegetarian Samosa, Poori, Chicken Vindaloo.
    Annie B.

    We have come in person twice with my toddler since they opened and have also gotten delivery once, which is saying a lot because they've only been open for a little over a month at this point. It's so nice to have a really good Indian/Nepali spot in JP finally! I was happy to see Gobi Manchurian on the menu, which was really tasty, although having gotten the veggie momo masala and veggie biryani tonight, I'd say those dishes are actually the winners for me now. I've only ever had steamed momos previously, but the momo masala momos here were bathed in an absolutely delicious spicy tomato based sauce. I literally said out loud-- "these are incredible!" I've never had anything like them before and they were so good! The veggie biryani was also really good. My partner has enjoyed both the chicken and lamb vindaloo-- he says he liked the lamb version the best. And, my picky toddler has scarfed samosas every time we have gone there (to the point that tonight he very excitedly greeted the waitress with his request for a samosa and apple juice, lol). Speaking of which, the waitstaff are incredibly friendly and helpful. They remembered my kiddo and his samosa enthusiasm, which warmed my heart. So pleased to have momo masala in the neighborhood! Also, the portions are very generous and the leftovers should last 3-4 meals.

The restaurant offers a beautiful ambiance and you're warmly greeted by their wonderful team as you walk in. The menu boasts unique speciality dishes that you won't find in most places. The owner, Manju, curated a blend of flavors for me to try that paired perfectly together. This truly elevated my experience. I enjoyed every dish here.

The space is clean, stylish, and thoughtfully decorated, blending a chic Indian vibe with subtle Italian-inspired décor. It's a lovely setting, especially for date night or a more upscale dinner. That said, the food itself was... fine, but not standout. We spent about $60 on one appetizer, one shared entrée, and two pieces of naan, which feels a bit steep for what we got. I also left hungry. Highlights: The dahi puri was the star of the meal -- super refreshing, flavorful, and a perfect bite between richer dishes. The naan was well-seasoned, crisp on the outside, fluffy inside, and genuinely delicious. The butter chicken had a nice kick of spice but was otherwise surprisingly bland and lacked depth of flavor. If you've had a lot of Indian food (especially in the Cambridge area), this may fall a bit short. There are several nearby spots that offer more memorable flavors. If you're staying in or near Boston proper, Shanti in Dorchester and Sher-a-Punjab in Quincy are both stronger options. That said, Saanjh is very convenient for its location, which gives it an edge. Service: Service was quick, efficient, and genuinely warm. We had the pleasure of speaking with Saj (?) who was an absolute highlight of the experience. He was friendly, engaging, and went above and beyond -- even staying about 15 minutes past his break just to chat with us. He clearly cares about the guest experience and deserves serious recognition (and probably a raise!). Overall: Come here for the ambiance, service, and convenience. If exceptional Indian food is your top priority, there are better options nearby. Still, a pleasant experience overall, especially thanks to the great service.

It's a big, clean, open environment, but there were no guests on the inside when walking in. We came in around 12:30 so there should've been at least some people there - which usually is a telling sign. My dad ordered chicken over rice, and I ordered lamb in a wrap. The wrap wasn't a wrap as it wasn't folded in on the sides, but rather left as a roll up. Rice wasn't bad, but it was just more on the plain side. Things just tasted plain and not that flavorful. I don't wanna sauce to do that, I would much rather have the food presented itself as flavorful. The meat wasn't all that great texture, wise or flavor wise. Also, the bread that the rollup was for broke apart, and the taste was slightly subpar. I could've marked it as a 3 Star place. But in reality. I know I wouldn't be coming back here again.
