    Hakka noodles with vegetables
    Cami C.

    Stopped by here before going to a concert at the BSO and it was a great place to grab dinner. We were seated within 5 min after getting there. They have tables for 1-2 people and a decent amount of space that can accommodate larger parties by combining tables together. When I went, it seemed the restaurant was a bit short-staffed, but we still had great service! We were able to place our order pretty quickly and while the food took a bit longer to come out than normal, the server was so kind in coming up to give us updates and re-fill our water. The ambiance is also great, so I didn't mind a bit of a wait with the beautiful decor and warm atmosphere! We tried the hakka noodles with vegetables and then had Tikka Masala with lamb. Both were fantastic and add in the potato naan and it was *chef's kiss.* Servings were sharable and we felt there was plenty of food for 2 people!

    Mango lassi
    Emily Y.

    Great little restaurant right with both indoor and covered patio seating. They're running a promo right now for a free mango lassi if you show student ID. The chicken tikka masala and shrimp curry were both delicious and can be made not spicy. The vegetable samosas were crispy and came with 3 dipping sauces. The food takes a while to come out but the wait is worth it

    Been here a few times now sometimes with the hubs and sometimes in a bigger group of friends. Good experience every time! Ambiance is nice and they even have a cute outdoor seating in summer and even today when it's a balmy 50 degrees in December! Service is always friendly. I've ordered the pav bhaji multiple times and did so today. I've also had the chicken biryani which the hubs ordered today - it comes with a side of raita. We also ordered the tandoori chicken lollipops. Now these were amazing!!! Omg they were crispy on the outside perfectly juicy and tender on the inside. Really really great! The hubs and I just ate these one after the other and polished them off the plate in no time! Get these if you go for sure!!! They have a number of Indo-Chinese dishes have yet try those although the hubs tried the Hakka noodles before. I wish they'd have South Indian dishes like masala dosa, idli and vada sambar- hint hint restaurant!! Great location right near Symphony- we can walk here usually after gym at the Huntington Y across the street. Go here if you haven't already :)

    Shahi Korma

    Was not too busy when we went on a Saturday night so we got seated immediately! And the waitresses were all really patient and friendly The food took awhile to come but maybe it was just because I was really hungry Presentation of the food was very cool! Little metal pots which look small but are quite filling. And they keep your food warmer for longer :) I got the chicken korma and it was nice warm and savory, and very tender large chunks of chicken! The garlic naan though that we got I wish had been a bit more buttery, less dry, and more garlicky Overall solid meal though and left waaaay too full

    Chicken Dry 65
    Gagan G.

    We ordered chole bhature, chicken 65 dry, Hakka noodles, dhai poori chaat, and paneer biryani. The first four dishes were absolutely incredible. They were so flavorful and delicious. They had the perfect amount of spices and were amazing. Our only big issue was biryani. It was disgusting and sour for some reason. Was a lot more like pulao than biryani. The server was really nice about this though and offered to switch our dish for the dhai puri. Amazing service and handled the situation nicely. There was no one else in the restaurant.

    The food seems overpriced for the portion sizes, however they were not bad in taste. We ordered a variety of sauces to dip our naan into, but it didn't seem like anything we couldn't get at the grocery store. The restaurant space itself was mid-sized, and the staff were kind to us!

    Super friendly and yummy food! Chicken tikka masala isn't too spicy, very flavorful. Garlic naan was very fluffy. Would visit again!

    Schezwan potatoes (?)
    Apex S.

    I'm torn between a 3 or 4 star review, but I'll give them the benefit of doubt and go with the higher one. We were really looking forward to some indo-chinese food and that's how we came across Mumbai Spice. They deliver via Uber Eats. Mumbai Spice was still open (around 7 pm). It took over an hour for the food to be delivered, but that's alright. We got the veggie fried rice, the vegetable manchurian gravy, and schezwan potatoes. When we opened the containers, we were very surprised by the potato dish. As you see in the image, it included curry leaves! I'm quite certain they sent us something like potato 65 (which is not even on their menu!) instead of schezwan. However, there was no note with the order that they substituted our dish, which was even more strange. Anyway, the dish lacked salt, so all you could taste was the chili powder, so we didn't really enjoy it. But the fried rice and the gravy from the vegetable manchurian really hit the spot, it was very similar to the tastes back home and what we were expecting. The veggie ball in the manchurian could have been better, but that's a small factor. Overall, I'd try them again when I'm wanting some indo-chinese cuisine. I wouldn't order the potatoes but maybe go for a different dish like chili paneer!

    Chicken Samosa (2)
    Ivy T.

    Mumbai Spice is a new favorite for me! I've been here twice now, the first time I got chicken biryani and the second time I got chicken tikka masala, butter naan, and samosas. The biryani was slightly had a lot of spices; the yogurt sauce helped cut through that taste and was a good combination. The bowl looked small at first but I had plenty of leftovers to last me another a meal. The tikka masala was even better. It wasn't spicy at all but had a nice creamy flavor, and was amazing with rice and warm butter naan. The samosas were so delicious! I'm craving them right now just remembering them. I also had leftovers from this meal too. My only complaints are that the meat is a little sparse in these dishes, and the restaurant charges an automatic gratuity on tables of 2 and above. These aren't dealbreakers though and I will definitely return to try more menu items.

    Recommended by my friend, this pan-fried bun生煎 place isn't far from MFA Boston. The little place is…read moreincredibly popular and well-known among Boston's Chinese student community. Shanghai Classic Pork Pan-Fried Buns上海生煎饅頭: I was instantly hooked! It's hard to imagine finding such good pan-fried buns in the US. Almost every table ordered them, so they were all freshly made, piping hot. The bun was made with unleavened dough, making it chewy and refreshing, with a light, crispy bottom--not oily or hard. The meat filling was substantial and tender, with plenty of broth (see picture). It was sweeter than salty, incredibly umami. The chili oil was also very fragrant, and dipping it in Zhenjiang vinegar enhanced the flavor and cut through the greasiness. Shredded Pork & Preserved Vegetable Noodle Soup雪菜肉絲麵: The noodles were thin and round, with a soft, mushy texture. While the noodles were clearly machine-made, this isn't a problem in the Yangtze River Delta region; the issue was likely overcooking. The shredded pork were well-stirred, with tender meat, but the noodles lacked flavor. They had to be eaten with the pickled mustard greens雪菜 to be slightly salty, and the umami flavor was severely diluted. The tableware is all disposable, and tipping is not mandatory. It's quite affordable.

    Walking to the St. Mary's St station to wait for the train, I looked up and saw Li Yin Rice Roll…read moreacross the street! I instantly teleported to the shop to show my support. Both Cantonese and Mandarin were seamlessly spoken. Shrimp Rice Roll / Egg: It looked very appealing. However, the soy sauce was ridiculously sweet, much sweeter than in China, completely exceeding the standard "umami and sweet" of the authentic Cantonese cheung fun腸粉 (rice roll) soy sauce. The cheung fun skin was somehow overcooked, so some parts without egg at the bottom were soggy from soaking in the soy sauce, making the whole roll quite greasy. I have to admire my culinary acumen: I managed to preserve most of the skin's basic texture with the extra egg. Fortunately, the shrimp were fresh enough, six in a serving, with a crispy texture. Oh well, since I'm in America, it's tolerable. I must say, I would never have come here specifically for this, never in my life. Spending $10+ on a plate of cheung fun after traveling so far, will make me feel more like a sucker than ever before!

    Great Hong Kong dining experience!…read more Located in Brookline on Beacon Street with abundant street parking, Liyin is a great walk-in option for breakfast lunch or dinner. They specialize in rice rolls with different fillings as well as porridge with a variety of toppings. We tried multiple items and I especially enjoyed the Shrimp Rice Roll!

I don't usually like fried rice or pineapple but I really loved this dish--highly recommend. My friends also loved the Soybean Milk which comes out piping hot and sweet. Overall would definitely come back for a quick and yummy meal.

Limited street parking out front, but there are more street metered parking on the side street (next to the green line). The restaurant is much smaller than the Weymouth location, and the menu selection is also different. The server asked me to scan the QR code on the table for the menu, so I'm not sure if they have a paper menu. You can place the order directly via the QR code. I requested one dish to be non-spicy, and they were able to accommodate that. The only thing was that both dishes were a little bit too salty than my liking. I came here during a weekday lunch, and it wasn't super busy. I would return again.
