Indian Masala - Newton

Excellent food, lovely service. Food is served family style; each dish easily shareable for 2 or more diners. They customize the spice/heat levels to your request. BYOB.

Delicious food ! We ordered take out, everything was nicely packed and ready when I arrived. Generous portions, we spent $130 for 6 people and had plenty of leftovers. Excellent flavors, good level of spice we will be back again for sure !

Great Indian food in Newton.Never regret going there.

Love this place!! Food is fresh and delicious! Never a bad meal when we go! Worth the 40 min ride for us?

My fiancé and I were in the area and wanted a good meal. We saw that India Masala had a high rating and decided to give it a try. In a quiet street in a small town, tucked into the bottom floor of a home/apartments is India Masala.The dining area is small, about 10 tables, and welcoming. Decor is slightly mismatched (faux brick walls, pictures of spices, Victorian girl painting) but comfortable.The service was warm and friendly. We were checked on several times but did not feel like anyone was hovering around us.For appetizers we ordered the Gobi Manchurian and Papad. The Gobi was crispy and spicy, very tasty! The papad was generic and served with tamarind, mint and mango chutney. They were all very flavorful!We ordered garlic naan to share which was very garlicky and maintained its garlic goodness even when paired with the well spiced main dishes. My fiancé ordered Lamb Rogan Josh with a high heat level. He was impressed by the quality of meat noting it was tender yet lean and flavorful. Heat level was accurate to what he asked for. I ordered the Paneer Achari which came out on a sizzling pan with a side of sauce. The sauce seemed to be something similar to tikka masala sauce or at least that’s what it reminded me of! It was tasty and spicy. A good balance for someone like me who enjoys spice and heat but isn’t a Pepper Head like my fiancé.At the end of our meal a kind server brought out Kulfi/ice cream which was on the house. It was a pistachio-cardamom treat which was a perfect way to end our meal.The only real disappointment here is that it is 2 hours away from where we live!Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian and vegan options available.
