The closure is permanent. I believe a new Indian restaurant is opening there soon, led by the guy who started Guru the Caterer in Somerville and Depth N Green.

Quick seating but the wait for the food can be long. However, you’re waiting will be rewarded with supremely delicious food.
We ordered multiple dishes, being able to sample from lamb, chicken, and kebabs. The food was amazing. Would wait again.

Buffet is priced reasonably at ~15$.

Good restaurant that I found on business trip. The portions are big and come with rice so if you order naan as well it’s a lot of food. The restaurant is small bit nice interior. The tikka masala was good both in taste and portion size.

It’s a beautifully thought out space for Indian cuisine right in the heart of Cambridge at Kendall. It’s walking distance from the Kendall/MIT stop on the MBTA Red line. The place is usually open till 10 PM. We reached around 8-55 so had an hour almost. We instantly got a table and didn’t have to wait. Going for the dahi vada and samosa was an obvious choice and the samosa turned out to be much better than the former. We then ordered the Paneer tikka which came with a side of either rice or naan. The paneer tasted okay. We wrapped it up with Rasmalai which was nice. They serve complimentary papad and three chutneys – onion, mint and tamarind. They also stock Taj Mahal beer which is imported from India. Overall a very satisfying experience.
P.S. – Last orders for food are to be given before 9-45 PM as that’s their cutoff time.

The best Indian lunch buffet (all you can eat) in the Cambridge/Boston area!
The main issue with Indian buffet places is that the food is often times constantly heated and loses all its freshness and flavors. However, at this restaurant it is served in limited (refillable) quantities in cute stackable containers or “tiffin boxes” directly at your table! The food is flavorful, nutritionally balanced (for both vegetarians as well as non vegetarians) and is served with a cup of masala chai and Parle-G!
Will definitely be adding this to my lunch rotation!

Enjoyed dinner 2 days in a row here. The quality and taste of the food really breast my expectations. Chicken was tender and the paneer gravy had the right texture and take.

Went there for lunch buffet. Solid place, clean, friendly staff, good choice of buffet at a reasonable price. Highlights were their tandoori chicken mix. Would go there again or recommend to a friend for a quick lunch in Cambridge.

The tastes are pretty decent but the menu can be pretty misleading.
I ordered a chicken do piaza and a peshawar naan. The do piaza was described to have an abundance of onions and bell peppers and have a sauce with a heavy flavor. I’m normally very sensitive to flavors and this dish did not have a heavy flavor at all. It was very light for an Indian dish, in fact. And there were hardly any vegetables in it. Instead, there were just giant chunks of chicken.
The peshawar naan was described to be stuffed with coconut, almonds, pistachios and rasins. I didn’t find or taste a single scrap of rasin in the entire order. Thanks to these two miscommunications, I didn’t enjoy the dinner as much as I could have, since I was expecting far more vegetables and flavor to balance with the rice.
So if you’re not familiar with Indian food like me, the menu descriptions might not be the most accurate refs for what to get.
