Tasty and fresh, medium spice is great. The presentation on some dishes is amazing. Service was very good, nice people:

Butter chicken (comes with rice dish in the back)
Katherine V.

Saanjh presents itself as a fine dining Indian restaurant -- white tablecloths, elegant plating, and a chic, modern atmosphere -- and in that sense, they definitely deliver. 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.

Lamb Shank Nihari
Komal R.

Saanjh is supposedly one of the better Indian fine dining restaurants in Boston. The ambiance didn't feel upscale and was like an average Indian restaurant. Seating was crammed and there is barely any space for high chairs. In general the food was good but there were some items that we had high expectations for like Jaipuri Laal Maas that didn't turn out to be good. The Laal maas is nothing like I have had in Rajasthan. We enjoyed the appetizers like Malai Tikka and Pesto Paneer tikka (even though there was barely any Pesto in it and it mostly tasted of coriander). I think the Lamb Shank Nihari was really delicious! The drinks were underwhelming - especially the Aampanna Illusion. I also felt the staff in general was not very accommodating because we asked them if one of the mocktails could be cockified and they said they will have to ask the Bartender. How difficult is it to add a liquor to a mocktail?! Another time, one of my friends asked if they could tone down the spice level for her spicy margarita and after some back and forth they sent a replacement which wasn't any better. The desserts, though aesthetically pleasing, left a lot to be desired taste wise.

Aloo Paratha

Mostly Needs reservation as it's gets full. Service was very friendly. The food was tasty and different too.

Kale and Sakarkandi Chaat

This is my second time dining at this place and everytime I go I am impressed with the food and service. One of the dishes I must highlight is the kale chaat, I've never had anything like it. It's crunchy and sweet. I look forward to visiting Boston again just to taste it again. Small things in this place like the rose shaped cloth napkins show the time that go into making guest feel comfortable. Wonderful place.

Pani poori
Aliya M.

Yum what a great addition to Brookline! Ssaanjh is the newest Indian restaurant in the area, located right on Beacon Street. There's lots of street parking and both indoor and outdoor seating for the summer! We ordered a bunch of drinks--their masala chai is lovely and mango lassi was a hit! For apps we LOVED all of the chaats--my favorite was the pani poori which comes in a beautiful tray with individual little cups to pour into your poori. We also tried the samosa chaat which was delicious, it comes with two samosas and lots of chickpeas/sauce. We shared two orders of the garlic naan which was perfectly fresh and garlicky (although each order is a little small--we def needed two orders for the four of us). We had the butter chicken and the paneer pasinda which were both tasty. Overall a really great meal with quite reasonable prices--our total even with drinks and more food than we needed came out to $28/person. Will definitely be back!

Great addition to the Greater Boston food scene! This general area does not have many Indian restaurants, especially ones that are slightly more upscale with a modern spin on their dishes. The interior is lovely, a great place to catch up with friends or coworkers. Dahi Puri was great! Crunchy, creamy, and refreshing at the same time, loved it! Also can't forget the Kale and Sakarkandi Chaat, which was a great combination of crispy, sweet (sweet potatoes) but also refreshing pop from the pomegranates. Mango lassi was mango lassi with a slight twist to it, unsure if it had some nutmeg or some other spice to it but was not specifically the biggest fan of this added spice to my mango lassi (that I get basically every time I visit an Indian restaurant). Palak paneer itself was a bit bland but still tasted pretty clean and simple as a dish, which I liked (didn't taste greasy). Though, the main reason this review gets 5 stars--is the Ssaanjh Special Butter Chicken entree. Which was honestly AMAZING. Best butter chicken I've had. The chicken was extremely tender (same with the lamb in our other entree too), and the blend of the chicken and butter chicken curry sauce just melts in your mouth. The sauce is super creamy, unlike what I've had before but in a good way. I just wish they gave more rice, but otherwise this dish was extremely memorable and I've had this dish at plenty other restaurants as well. I would go back just for this dish. What we ordered: -Dahi Puri -Kale and Sakarkandi Chaat -Ssaanjh Special Butter Chicken -Palak Paneer -(forget the name of the lamb curry entree) -Garlic Naan -Mango Lassi

Jackfruit steak

Yummy flavorful I like the consistency and it made me so full OHMY Sooo good !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Solid Indian fare! We got the Ssaanjh Special Butter Chicken, Palak Paneer, Hyderabadi Chicken Dum Biryani, and some Garlic Naan. Butter Chicken was tasty and definitely had some smoky notes, though was lukewarm... Biryani and Palak Paneer were both delicious and appropriately portioned. Garlic Naan was really good: texture and flavor on-point. Complementary rice was appreciated. All for an affordable price, will return!

Ssaanjh Special Butter Chicken Garlic Naan

Looks delicious right? WRONG. Presentation looks amazing but that was some watered down butter chicken if I've ever had any! The chicken was like eating boiled chicken. The naan was crispy and garlicky. It was great better eaten by itself. I feel like if you can't get butter chicken right which is the more simple of recipes In Indian food idk what else would be good.

Kirtana S.

This was absolutely delicious. Thankful to owner Mandeep for treating my family and I so nicely. He introduced himself to every table and helped everyone with their selections which is service I have not seen before. The meat was fantastic- I am still thinking of the Nihari! Please come here.

Dahi kebab
Chirag M.

Boston really needs a solid, upscale Indian gastropub, and I was hoping this was the answer. Unfortunately it fell a bit short. I would given 3.5 stars, but rounded that off to a 4 since it's a new restaurant. Cocktails were terrible. Food and service were decent. MVPs of the night were the kale chaat, shrimp curry and the beet root kofta. The chicken curry was disappointing, and the saag corn ricotta lacked flavor.

While we waited for our table, the host kindly accommodated us at the bar, where we tried a mango-flavored cocktail Mango Blaze, that tasted like a spiked Aam Panna--a fun and refreshing twist! We ordered a couple of appetizers, and they hit all the right notes, especially the Chilli Mushroom, which was a standout. For the mains, the Zafrani Kofta and Kadai Veg were flavorful, perfectly balanced on spice, and not overly oily. The rest of the group tried some non-vegetarian dishes and seemed equally pleased. The interiors felt fresh and inviting, and the staff was warm, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. I don't write reviews often, but this experience deserved one. It was wonderful to see a bustling Indian restaurant serving authentic, well-balanced flavors in such a prime location.

We loved the cute outdoor patio and had such a fun experience. I especially appreciated how clearly the menu labels vegan options and allergens, which made ordering really easy. They also have some fun martinis, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The food was soo good, and the samosas were a highlight for me. My mom thought they were a little spicy, but I thought they were great and loved the flavor. Service was excellent--friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Overall, a really enjoyable and unplanned stop that I'd definitely come back to, especially for the patio, drinks, and very vegan-friendly menu.

I knew I needed to try it because it has momo in the name and that is not something you will find at restaurants. We called to make a reservation (glad we did, it was packed when we got there!). We were seated promptly. The staff is super nice and friendly which added to the vibe of the place. It's a pretty simple restaurant, with amazing food. Chili veg momo- the only time I get momos is in India. I was ecstatic to see them on a menu. And these momos blew me away, they were SO good. I will be going back regularly just for momos. Note that the momos are huge, and there's a LOT of them. We had leftovers. Chicken 65- another delicious app. So saucy and delicious Chicken vindaloo...butter chicken...I could keep writing but the point is it's all amazing. I would feel confident ordering literally ordering anything off of the menu. Can't miss this spot!

All in all it would be a really cute date night spot too.

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. They did offer pizza which looked kinda unappetizing when seeing it. Between trying to incorporate Indian, Mediterranean, Pizza, ans Desserts, Boulangerie, and Fusion by inserting Halal into burritos - it's too much. Too much fusion, too American. Either be the dominant force of having it as a Indian American restaurant or go the dessert & pastry route way.

It's just not worth it. Nothing about the food stood out or makes me want to go back. I guess the…read moreonly redeeming quality is that they're open late and pretty cheap for the portion size, so if you're really craving indian/mediterranean food in a pinch, you can always go here. Otherwise, the service was incredibly slow and the restaurant had an oddly empty atmosphere with its wide amount of space. As for the food, it lacked authentic flavors of the cuisine, and felt bland/not cohesive. My favorite part of the meal were the fries and the veggie burger, but not any of their main offerings. I would skip it if I were you. There's way better Indian food in other parts of Boston.
