After being in Boston for 5 years, this was hands down the worst dining experience I've ever had…read more The service was awful. My family and I waited over 50 minutes for our food. We watched over 20 online orders get sent out of the kitchen, and the waiters never came to our table to check on us. When complaining to the owner/manager, he expressed his apologies and mentioned that they were understaffed. This is no excuse for shitty service. If you are understaffed, why are you still taking so many online orders? Focus on your dine-in tables for the night! When the food did come, it was SO SO average -- something I didn't need to come all the way to Union Square for. Definitely not worth the wait. TL;DR - I will never be returning here, and will never, ever recommend.

The saag paneer (spinach and cheese) was nicely spiced, with an opportunity to taste out the flavors of the spinach. The cheese was nicely flavored as well. The chicken tikka masala was creamy, with a nice set of spices and something a bit extra in the flavoring that made it a bit unique. I would have liked to see a greater volume of chicken pieces, but the pieces that I did get were tender and cooked nicely. The okra (Bhindi Bhuna) was really nicely flavored. But the okra itself was too stringy, with a mix of hard bits and tough bits. The okra needs to be significantly more tender. All in all a nice meal! Excellent service also.

That was our introduction to the delicious dishes we were about to have. The menu keeps it simple with several varieties of Nepalese dishes with different meats, vegetable, and tofu.

You do get to pick your spice level for the Chili plate. We got 3 out of 10. Chili and Tarkari came with plenty of sauce to cover the white rice they came with. I loved that everything was mixed with different vegetables, which helped make the dishes colorful and healthier! Service was very quick, from ordering to getting the check.

All the flavors were good, and being that it was our first time there I might have ordered too much food to try - Eyes bigger than stomach mentality! The Curry Shrimp was insane delicious, the Tikka Masala was good, Medium spice is slightly spicy for those that dont love it, just a heads up! I can deal most often times but this night my mouth was doing its own thing & my lips were on fire, LOL But still ate the whole thing because the flavor was spot on and I was just unable to stop shoveling it into my mouth. Ordered 2 pieces of Naan and wish I got 100, Its such a simple item but OMG I could eat it all night, its like potato chips, LOL I went deep fried momo and might want to try steamed next time, we will see...

We got there mid afternoon and the place was not busy. We greeted and seated almost immediately. It was a super pleasure to have Sandesh as a server and what a super nice and helpful man. Not only did he treat us well but also explained a lot about Nepali food and culture as we asked. He checked on us often as his way to make sure that everything was going well and if we had any questions. I learned that water buffalo(buff) is one of the favorite proteins in Nepal. We were informed that they get the meat from a farm in NY and that they like to keep to authentic flavors. For an appetizer we went for the buff pan fried momos. We had both spicy and non-spicy dipping sauces since I prefer non-spicy. I found the sauce delicious and the buff to be an interesting protein that I would try again. For my main course I went for the chicken thali after learning that it is one of their traditional meals. You get a little bit of everything including dessert - a delicious greek yogurt mixed with green cardamom and coconut. Our server mentioned that if we wanted anything extra (except for the protein) that they would be happy to bring it. We had tons of leftovers because we tried several dishes and asked if we could have more rice and they provided a complimentary container when our food was packed. Place is super clean and has beautiful Nepali decorations. Even your bill is brought in a wooden box with Nepali carvings. There was soft music playing in the background. We were curious about the hot pot tables but were informed that they were left by the previous restaurant but that they don't offer hot pot. The women's bathroom is cleverly decorated with Nepali scenes and has a beautiful authentic faucet. Our server informed us that on Wednesdays and Thursdays they offer what he described as Nepali street food. Selected dishes are $5 except for a a whole fried fish that is $10. We might have to check them out one of these days. An overall great and unique find!

The restaurant was comfy; there was an electric fireplace on the wall which made the room feel homey. We got fried pork momos, which were delicious and juicy. I was interested in trying the C-style, but we had a non-spice eater at the table. I got the pork chili from the appetizer menu and garlic naan for my meal, and my companions got the chow mein and sekuwa. The chow mein looked standard and sekewa was grilled chicken served with puffed rice (looked like rice krispies). Everyone was happy with their meals, but I especially loved mine. There were slices of pork belly in a flavorful sauce with tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers. Note that the pork belly still has the skin on it (which I personally love). My only complaint was at medium, the food seemed mild, but I'll be clearer of my spice preferences next time. I would definitely come back specifically for the pork chili!

First time trying Nepalese food. This story tells us why some cuisines aren't popular (in China)…read more.. Papad: A complimentary crispy snack served before the meal. A combination of the texture of Mexican tortilla chips and the flavor of Indonesian shrimp chips. As someone whose ancestors migrated to Indonesia (half Hakka), I've eaten shrimp chips since childhood, so it felt instantly familiar. The condiments were tamarind sauce and pickled onions. The former was rich, thick, and refreshingly sweet and sour, strangely reminiscent of Cantonese roast goose with plum sauce, a perfect match for the crispy snack; the latter also had a predominantly sweet and sour tomato flavor, but the subsequent strange taste and spiciness of the paprika was too much for a Cantonese person like me. Mango Lassi: Absolutely delicious!!! Lassi is Nepalese yogurt, with a very smooth and delicate texture; the sweetness of the mango was naturally rich and not overpowering, not masking the rich sourness of the yogurt itself. Writing this review, I finally understood why I loved it--it's basically a yogurt version of Hongkongese mango pomelo sago... Mo:mo (Steamed) - Pork: Nepalese version of xiaolongbao小籠包 (soup dumplings). The filling had a moderate concentration of spices, allowing you to taste the meat's natural flavor; however, the skin near the bottom had cracks, so there were no soup. The dipping sauce, Achar, was interesting, with the sweet and sour taste of tomatoes, the spiciness of garlic and ginger, and a hint of nuts, making it overall refreshing. However, what might be hard for Chinese people to understand is that steamed buns are supposed to be eaten fresh out of the pot, so why was the dipping sauce cold? Reheating it at home with the sauce made it much more palatable. Nepali Thaali - Goat: The standard vegetarian option included lentil soup (Dal), curried potato and cauliflower (Tarkari), stir-fried vegetables (Saag), pickled radish cubes (Achaar), long-grain rice (Bhat), ghee, and a slice each of white radish, carrot, and cucumber, plus an extra serving of goat curry. In short, it was a bunch of spice paste with rice. I won't judge whether it was good or bad; I just really didn't like it. The spices were extremely complex and intense; towards the end, I even felt dizzy and questioned my existence, completely disoriented by what I was eating--it felt so strange, like something that shouldn't exist on Earth... The Dal seemed to use more mung beans than lentils, with a slightly burnt and bitter aftertaste; both vegetables in the Tarkari were overcooked, but the curry itself was rather weak and bland; the Saag seemed to use mustard greens, similar to stir-fried greens in Chinese cuisine but on the oilier side, with dried chilies that only added aroma, not spiciness. The curried goat meat, however, was quite good, savory and rich, the meat's flavor finally making it taste less like herbs. Muttering to myself: Each has its own beauty, let's all appreciate beauty together...

This is due partly to another party ahead of us not leaving promptly, but I think the restaurant could have been ready ahead of us as well. I will admit that I enjoyed the ambiance - it had nice low lighting with contemporary decor which made a nice dinner spot. The service in terms of both the waiters and kitchen did not feel timely either. It took a while for drinks to arrive and there were barely any water refills in general. We ordered four different dishes on our side of the table and they were somewhat bland. The vegetable momos definitely need some kind of sauce since they were lacking in flavor. We also got a curry chicken thigh, beef noodles, and butter tofu. I think only the beef noodles had a good enough flavor profile and kick to them. I was also surprised that the portion sizes weren't close to what you would expect for the price. I think with so many good south Asian spots in the area, it's hard to recommend Martsa. I might consider coming back if I learn that there is a particular dish that I am missing out on.

I went with the chicken momos tandoori style medium (fastest type) and it was beautifully seasoned, the spicy sauce added a nice kick, but not overwhelming. The mulligatawny soup was excellent appetizer, filled with curried spices and easy to drink. This could even be a main dish if you add rice. If you like daal, and are looking for something different, I recommend this lentil soup! There's a lot of sunlight and multiple tables of 4 at the restaurant for dine in. I'm not ready to crown this place as the best Indian food in Cambridge, but I will definitely be back to make that determination!

I felt like the recipe also changed a little, maybe just less onion & cilantro inside, too. Idk, they were still good. I'll go back soon and try again--maybe I'll even request the topping myself. The soup was the highlight this time. I could tell the thukpa recipe was modified and it was BETTER and DEEPER. Piping hot as always, more veggies, plenty of chicken was grilled and added on top, broth filled to the brim, noodles still had bounce, flavor galore. They even asked what spice level I wanted this time, and I said very spicy; it wasn't that spicy though, so if you like spice, consider saying 'extra spicy' lol. It was mostly soothing--a warm, HEARTY bowl of chicken soup; didn't leave my mouth tingling at all. Just a warning, the way the chicken is grilled makes it a little more hard/crunchy. It's not soft/pull-apart for those of you wondering; it's a different type of style of cooking. I actually really enjoy the crunch and there has never been any questionable or chewy bits. I can't wait for my next bowl.
