If you meet the MasalaWala himself it would behoove you to be nice to him. He's as true and authentic as his restaurant's food. Highlights were the lamb ribs, chili cheese naan, and milk chai. 10/10
Had an amazing meal! Food was delicious! The staff was so nice too! The owner checked up on us several times to make sure we were doing good with all of our courses! Try the dahi puri and gobi app!!
Tried the palak paneer along with a chicken chettinad, both incredible ,and this is coming from 2 ppl who eat Indian atleast twice a week. We will be back to try the rest of the menu!Hopefully tmwr ;)
Food is good & portions are big. Owner & staff is warm & welcoming. I came with a Gilt City deal and thought the offering was really generous. Not sure I would feel the same if I had paid full price.
The whole experience was really satisfying. The place is small but packed most of the evenings. The service was excellent (owner was super courteous) and the food was absolutely delicious.Coming back!
good ass dal tadka, but got indian hot which was toooo spicy!!! owner hooked it up with a milder replacement for free! great tasting food with top of the notch service
new instant neighborhood fave! the food is delicious, best indian i've ever had in manhattan. so glad to finally have a fantastic indian restaurant on the les.
Amazing food, ESP the Manchurian cauliflower, mango lassi, shrimp dish, fish curry and many more. Friendly and attentive staff. Will definitely return!
The food is great. Very affordable lunch specials, include choice of course with rice and side soup/salad. Service was a little slow. Not exactly a place for a quick lunch
Best India food so far in Manhattan! Definitely ask the waiters for recommendations if you can't decide what to get. Chicken 65 is the one dish you can't miss!
It's places like this that reminds me why I wouldn't want to move out of NYC. The cheese chili naan (it's vegetarian) is so simple, I don't know how it's not more available. A must-try!
The MasalaWala is a chic South-Asian spot offering rare street-side delicacies like Chaat, Pani-Puri etc. while boasting traditional items like Tikka Masala, Jalfrezi, and Tandoor (Clay Oven) Specialties like Kebabs. Intimate setting with free Wi-Fi and voted "best Chai in the City"!
