Pricey but excellent Indian food in the north Boston suburbs. Stopped by last week with a dear cousin who lives and works in the area. We were welcomed warmly and seated, then ordered Nimbu soda ($9 each) while we caught up on life. We decided to share a vegetarian meal family style (she is my cousin, after all!) and ordered roomali roti ($9), dal makhani ($15), and a fusion dish called paneer da anda masala ($25), which was strongly recommended by our server. Food arrived quickly and was a feast to both our eyes and palate! We polished it off - especially enjoying the unusual paneer entrée. I was in the mood for dessert as we were chatting happily and I wanted to linger a bit longer. The server steered us right again - towards Rajastani ghevar ($11) - a honeycomb disc with ghee, Rabdi, and pistachio. It was divine! Total bill after tax and tip was $111. Happy to return. read more

If you're looking for a standout, modern Indian restaurant experience, Tashan is absolutely worth a visit. The ambiance sets the tone as soon as you walk in, vibrant decor with a stylish bar. The service is consistently excellent. The menu is where Tashan really shines. They take familiar Indian flavors and elevate them with a creative twist. The Punjabi staples like chole, chicken tikka, and daal makhni are done exceptionally well, striking that perfect balance between authenticity and refinement. The cocktail menu deserves a special mention. The aam mojito was refreshing and vibrant with mango and mint; the sharabi samundar was tropical and fun. For dessert, the Rajasthani Ghevar was a highlight; it was honeycomb-textured, and perfectly paired with a rich rabdi and pistachios. Tashan delivers a polished, yet approachable, take on modern Indian cuisine. Highly recommend! read more

I came here for the lunch buffet, so I can't speak for their dinners, but I won't be returning. The buffet options were quite limited, and surprisingly bland for an Indian restaurant. There wasn't a hint of spice in anything. There wasn't any chai ($5 for a glass) and for dessert all they had was "strawberry mouse" which tasted basically like flavored cool-whip, instead of any actual Indian desserts, like gulab jamun, which most India buffets have. On top of this, it was more expensive than many Indian buffets. If you want a good Indian buffet, go a couple exits up 128 to Godavari in Woburn instead. It'll be worth the detour. read more

Our first time here was for valentine 's day - they did a valentine's dinner buffet with lots of different appetizers, vegetarian options, and curries, naan, biryani, chutney, raita, and desserts like halwa, jalebi, and strawberry mousse! The buffet was $65 per person which was a great deal considering the options. We weren't told it was a buffet when we first arrived, so we were a little confused at first, especially since it took a while for someone to take our drink orders (and also did not tell us to go ahead to the buffet). The service was a bit off because of that, and at the end we weren't sure who to ask for the check since it didn't feel like we had a consistent server. When we left, we were given a small box of gulab jamun as a parting gift, which was really a touch! We will definitely return for dinner or lunch buffet. It's a lovely space for a date night. read more

Beautiful restaurant with fantastic food and service. Our server Shashi was very helpful with the menu and attentive during our meal. We started with Crispy Sesame Gobhi and Samosa rolls. So good!! Entrees were Halibut Moilee and Chicken Khada Marsala. The spice level was just right and everything was full of flavor. No room for dessert unfortunately . Highly recommend Tashan! read more

Came here on a Friday night at 6:15 with a dinner reservation. We were seated promptly by the wait staff and they took our drink orders shortly thereafter. Everybody was very nice and the interior looked like that of a traditional Indian restaurant. For appetizers, we got the desi bao bun (we ordered chicken, but they brought paneer) and the gol guppa. Both tasted excellent! For entrees, we ordered the baingan bharta (eggplant), masaladar bhindi (fried okra), along with an order of the latcha paratha and the daal makhani. The daal never came out, but everything else was incredibly flavorful. For dessert, we had the halwa chole (sweet carrot dessert) which was a lovely ending to the meal. Aside from the missteps on the wrong bao filling and our daal not coming out, it was an enjoyable meal! Worth trying it out if you're in the area, but service needs a little polishing up. read more

"Pricing for the Mother's Day buffet was clearly communicated during enquiry, so there was no confusion. However, charging $35 for very young children (2-3 years) feels excessive and not reasonable given how little they eat. While I understand business policies, this approach feels more focused on revenue than family-friendly dining, especially on a special occasion. Very disappointing overall." read more

Amazing Indian food in Burlington! Service here was great! They made sure we had everything and were satisfied. Inside is very lively. It is not a quiet place so not a great place if you're going for a quiet intimate setting. The chicken parda biryani was my favorite of all the things we tried. The chicken is as so tender and the biryani was not overly seasoned but just perfect! read more

We've been here for lunch with groups from work, and also for dinner as a couple. Every time we come to Tashan the food is outstanding, unique, and delicious. The service is consistently attentive, gracious, and knowledgeable. We also love their selection of cocktails which are creative, complex (if you want), and absolutely the highest quality. We are really happy to have discovered Tashan, and we'll be back again often. read more

My new favorite Indian restaurant. I realized it was my third time going here in the less than three months. And Tashan doesn't disappoint. Each time I have tried different dishes and they have produced quality and tasty meals. Service is impeccable. I had the opportunity to meet and talk with Harshita, the owner of Tashan. I explained to her that I was looking for dishes without a certain ingredient and she took meticulous care to ensure the kitchen produced my meal without it. She took time to chat with me and also ensured we liked what was served to us. Many kudos to your attention and warmth. The decor is very classy and elegant. I come back with a very satisfying experience always. Keep up the good work. read more

We had a birthday dinner at Tashan, while the food was good, the service left a lot to be desired. We had to ask about missing items on our order multiple times. Missing appetizers, incomplete dessert order. When removing dishes from the table, the server spilled half a glass of water and neither apologized, nor cleaned it up. As much as we enjoyed the food, we will be going to a different place for our next celebration. read more

Very good. I really like Indian food have tried places in Maine and NH. The server was excellent he gave great recommendations and asked all the right questions. I normally order the same thing but he figured out what I would like and nailed it. Appetizers, main meal drink naan all great and well priced. The atmosphere was great too it had a put together feel with well maintained seating and locations. If I'm in the area I'm coming here again. No pictures because I cleaned my plate. read more

We decided to celebrate our friend's birthday at this restaurant last week, when we were visiting Boston. The menu had many creative appetizers that we loved. And the high ratings definitely made us want to try it out. First of all, the service was just impeccable. Our server was so friendly and attentive. He joked with us, made sure the kids were taken care of first, kept checking on us constantly, and was just amazing. I wish I remembered his name. Even the owner kept checking on us. She brought the chef out to meet us. Overall, loved the attentive and friendly service. We ordered a lot of food to share: - Chatpatta Katori Chaat - incredible. Absolutely loved it. It was perfectly spiced and seasoned. - Kurkure Aam Palak Chaat - so so good. Loved the way they fried the spinach in the chaat. - Aloo Potli - this was almost like a samosa. I found this a bit bland for my tasting. - Vada Paav - this was good. Wish it was not as bland, but my friends loved it. A bit more seasoning in the potato stuffing would have been great. - Maska Paneer - my son loved it. And I loved the gravy. So flavorful. - Paneer Da Anda Masala - this is a very interesting dish. They use cheese to create an egg shape on the gravy. But it's made of chickpea and lentils. It's sooo good. - Daal Makhani - delicious. I'm a Daal Makhani snob. And when I get a good Daal Makhani, that's brownie points for the restaurant. The bread assortment was delicious too. We definitely stuffed ourselves with appetizers, which we loved. We had no space for dessert. Overall, highly recommend this place for great food, great ambiance, and some great service. Definitely check it out for some amazing Indian food. read more

I'd like to come back to this establishment for dinner, because it's not all that fair to rate it solely on the lunch buffet. But let's just say that for $23, I found the midweek lunch buffet to be very underwhelming. read more

Loved this place. They have kept it simple. Menu is just 1 page and its very simple. We ordered nin veg starter, bhuna gosht and chola kulcha for main course. Everything tasted well. Chola kulcha caught my eye and liked the presentation. One unique part was salad they served with bhuna gosht, which i really liked. Service was great and ambience is something adding to overall experience. I will definitely come back here and try rest of the menu. read more

This is absolutely one of the best places I have ever gone to for dinner. The atmosphere is inviting and sophisticated, the dishes are a perfect blend of traditional and creativity, the staff have smiles all around. It is difficult to find authentic South Asian restaurants in the area and also ones that are friendly and affordable, and this place truly checks off every single box. This easily wins a spot in my top ten favorite restaurants in the greater Boston area. Please visit and support businesses like this hat truly embody the culinary perfection and hospitality that defines the South Asian culture. read more

The space is gorgeous - big, clean, bright, modern. The food was delicious. Probably the most tender meat I've had at a restaurant in recent memory. The waitress was not accommodating at all. She said they couldn't even adjust the spiciness of a dish to mild. That struck me as a bit odd. She also immediately said no to other questions. The manager came out and checked on us and made sure said dish wasn't too spicy. Even offered yogurt to cool it down. Aside from that, they forgot about our drinks until we asked. The menu is a bit pricey, so it's not a place I'd go regularly. All in all, definitely worth a try for the quality of food. Plenty of parking in the lot. They suggested making a reservation for a Fri night but there were only 2 other parties there. The reservation wasn't necessary. And it does require a credit card. read more

Tashan - Indian Near Me - Bedford, Massachusetts

This week I took my parents to Tashan located on 213 Burlington Rd, Bedford, MA. This restaurant is an elevated dining experience featuring fantastic indian dishes. For cocktails we had the Lychee-tini which had tito's vodka, dry vermouth and lime. My favorite part of this drink were the delicious lychee boba pearls 9/10. We also had the copra mojio which had malibu white rum, coconut syrup, lime, simple syrup, and copra. If you love coconut this drink is for you as it also had entire pieces of coconut 9/10. The dhundari madira drink which was quite the presentation! This is a smokey bourbon drink with angostura, orange bitter and lime 9/10. All these drinks not only tasted great but were actually a great deal (cocktails were around $13-$15). For appetizers we had the chatpatta katori chatt which is a form of a classic indian street food. It was in a flour cup and contained chickpeas potatoes, lentil dumplings, yogurt, pomegranates and sev. This is served cold and tasted just as beautifully as it looked 8/10. We also had the subz-e-kabob which was made of assorted vegetables, ginger, garlic, breadcrumbs, and corn flour. The best way to describe these were that they reminded me of small fried vegetable patties 7/10. The lahsooni prawns were soaked in a curd marinade, it had mustard tempering, kashmiri chili, and cucumber-cabbage relish. These were spicy so if you can handle spice then this is a must have as it was the favorite appetizer of the evening 10/10. Finally, we had the malvani fish pakora. These pakoras were made with cod, besan, rice flour, kohlapuri masala, and green spicy mayo. The fish was so fresh and was definitely worth a try if you like fish 8/10. For main dishes we had the harra murgh tangdi which were chicken drumsticks containing fresh mint, yogurt, sour cream and tashan spices 8/10. We had the malai fish curry which had cod, dry roasted spices, bechamel sauce, lemon and kashmiri chili oil 10/10. The curry sauce was spicy and wasn't overpowering in fish flavor. We had the chuninda bhagare baigan which had baby eggplant, peanut sesame curry and copra paste. If you are looking for a vegetable curry dish this one is perfect to try 9/10. We had the lamb biiryani which contained extra lean lamb, and had aromatic spices, desi ghee and raita. This was probably the favorite main dish of the entire evening 10/10. The lamb was simply cooked perfectly. The garlic naan was also soooo good and a must get but also be sure to try the kulcha trio. Kulcha are Indian flatbreads similar to naan, but the key difference between them is that they are made using maida or a refined white flour whereas naan tends to be made with a wheat flour. If you havent had it before it is worth a try (plus they stuff theirs with potatoes) For dessert we had the nawabi tukda which was a malai cake (a soft & spongy cake soaked in sweetened milk) and rose petals. This was a light dessert and a perfect way to end the amazing evening. I don't give out 10/10s often but this was an easy 10/10 for food for me. The ambiance was 9/10 and the affordability 7/10. Check out this spot if you frequent the Burlington Mall or if you are looking for an amazing indian dining experience. read more

Our dinners were delicious, and we especially appreciated that the menu offered choices you don't typically find at other Indian restaurants in the area. I'd never heard of the fish pomfret, & loved it & its presentation. The service was efficient, though a bit abrupt. For a restaurant positioning itself a notch above others-- with prices to match -- the noise level was annoyingly high. read more

Tashan - GOAT CHEESE KOFTA - Indian Near Me - Bedford, Massachusetts

Had dinner here with our cousins a few weeks back. Overall the experience was pretty good, specially in comparison with other Indian restaurants in the area. A lot of authentic tasting dishes, without over-seasoning or greasy taste. The decor is tasteful and atmosphere is really nice. For appetizers we tried- Murg Angara Kabab, Crispy Sesame Gobhi and Aloo Potli. For mains we had- Masaladar Bhindi, Goat Cheese Kofta and Chicken Biryani as well as all the breads on the menu - Naan/Roti, Latchha Parantha, Kulcha and Garlic Naan. All the dishes were tasty and well presented. Our favs were Aloo Potli, Goat Cheese Kofta and Kulcha. The biryani was just meh. My only complaint is that even though the service was nice and courteous, the servers kept coming every few minutes to clear up the dishes. We made a reservation for dinner, the restaurant was not even that busy and all we wanted to do was spend some time chatting and eating good food with our cousins. But we were literally interrupted every few minutes- either to ask if we were done with the food, or if we were ready to order the next course or some other question. It genuinely felt like we were being rushed. For an upscale restaurant with upscale prices/quantities, I expect the service to be a little more considerate. Other than that, I think it is a great place for some good Indian food. read more

(I went for the buffet. If I could give 3.5/5 stars I would) The buffet is a bit expensive but worth it if you're super hungry ($30 pp I believe). Most of the food was ok but nothing worth noting. Some of the dishes were very unappealing and I'm not very picky. But the lamb chunks were amazing and the saving grace.. I'd go back just for that again!. They were perfectly cooked, super tender and not fatty at all, some of the best meat I've had. The dessert section was good too. The annoying part is you have a "waiter" even tho it's a buffet just to refill your water or to bring a drink. I'm typically a generous tipper but I'm not tipping close to 20% if I'm getting my own food and someone refills my water a few times. (I've only been to the buffet so I can't comment on the overall quality of food during the regular restaurant hours as I'd assume the quality may be a bit better then?) read more

We had Thanksgiving dinner at Tashan. Wow... The buffet dinner style was amazing. This review is for their Thanksgiving buffet, not their regular buffet. The number of options was at least 25-30 options including 4-5 different desserts. I tried probabably 15+ different bites of different dishes. Vast majority was delicious. My favorites were the beet salad with fresh goat cheese, lentil daal, silky fried Eggplants in tomatos sauce, the mushrooms in tomato sauce, butter chicken, a mutton dish (although the mutton was a bit chewy), spicy fried chicken with tomato sauce, lamb meatball, veggie biryani and chicken biryani and a few others. Most tasted delicious, except for the naan, grilled chicken kabob and the spinach kofte. Those did not taste right to me. For desserts, I had the espresso mousse and the warm bread pudding. Not too sweet. Yummy. Their Thanksgiving Buffet dinner was $45pp, which is higher than typical weekday/weekend buffets, but I thought that it was worth it and reasonably priced. read more

Buffet was nice. Nice selection of foods. $7 for garlic naan is outrageous. Attentive wait staff. Pleasant dining room

Been looking for a good upscale Indian restaurant with great food, and Tashan came close to it. The vada pav and the the Chicken curry (Murg Rajwadi) were delicious. The goat cheese kofta was tasty but very heavy with all the cream and cheese. The galouti kabab wasn't bad, and it's one of the few places that actually serves it. Shahi Tukda and Rasmalai desserts hit the spot. read more

I was excited to try this resturaunt. We were able to book reservation ahead. They have high top tables and low traditional seating. The atmosphere is unique, comfortable and pleasing. Great lighting. Great menu. I love that they offer some interesting Appetizer options. We had a really yummy fried crispy cup filled with lentils, chickpeas, chutney, it was really well seasoned. My husband got a goat dish, rice and naan. He absolutely loved it. Generous portion and great depth of flavor. I chose the vegetable biryani. It was fantastic. Great seasoning, good inclusion of vegetables. It came in a crock covered in dough, baked in the oven. The Raita was absolutely amazing! If I got this again I would also choose a saucy side to go with it. Perhaps the Daal. Service was not fantastic but they were aware. It may have been unexpectedly busy the night that we visited. We received our food before our drinks. Our second drink took a really really long time. A manager that was circulating was very kind to apologize and recognize the problems. Overall everyone was very pleasant and friendly. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

We ate here for lunch one weekday and we both ordered the lunch special. My wife got the vegetarian paneer one and I ordered the chicken one. Although the taste was good and there was a lot of food, neither dish 'wowed' us. My chicken dish was slightly better than the paneer according to both of us. We look forward to coming back to this restaurant to order lunch off the menu. That should be better since more of that meal is prepared at the time it is ordered. On the plus side the service and general appearance of the restaurant was clearly five star. The restaurant itself is very new and modern with large murals of Indian women on the walls. It was also very clean. The service matched the five-star decor. We plan to return. read more

The worst thing about this place, for an outsider is the lack of signage and the hard turn into the lot... That said the ambiance of this place more than makes up for the difficult entry! Quite a mix of laid back and semi-formal presence make the place quite homey Staff is attentive and quick to respond, menu is reasonable for a wannabe Indian place with an imposing name. The Jenny Vyas murals are a nice touch to go with seemingly eclectic sculptures and ornaments. The sports bar addition in front seems a bit out of place but I suppose it's a local watering hole for events Their specials a la happy hour seem quite substantial, offering not the usual bar fare but selections from their menu at a discount The clientele is quite diverse with a fair representation of Desi's, who by and large seem to be having a good time, along with the regular Bedford locals. The place was hopping by 7pm with over 75% of tables occupied on a Tuesday night. The food arrived reasonably quickly and was definitely up to snuff The lamb ghost was Devine, perhaps a trifle mild but tasteful and tender Naan was quite fresh and soft and the rice met expectations of a very fastidious eater (yours truly) Quantity was substantial and served in a generous dish, the table settings seemed to be coordinated and acceptable for an institution of this quality So all in all a good visit, recommend the place to any out of towners visiting the Bedford area read more
