One of my favorite Indian places in Boston. Very good chicken tikka and paneer. In my rotation for takeout.

The saag panner lunch special was soooo good, and it's only $9 (comes with Basmati rice, Indian tea, curry cabbage salad, and some other delicious appetizer)! The wait staff was responsive and welcoming. Be sure to ask them to give you the Indian sauce/condiments read more

India Quality Restaurant - $9 - India tea, curry cabbage salad, some other appetizer, Basmati rice, saag panner - Indian Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Although it contains many vegetables and was cooked in a coconut sauce, I found the korma to be lacking in any flavor except for hot spice. The mango juice also felt very watered-down. The samosas were very tasty, however, and the paneer naan was also good. I ordered delivery from this restaurant by Uber Eats, and my order was fulfilled very promptly. I may try other dishes from here again, but I would not order the korma again. read more

I came here to celebrate the end of the finals with three friends. We ordered Goat Curry, Goat Coconut, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Royal Naan. The goat curry was good, but it pales in comparison to the Goat Cocunut, which was AMAZING. the sauce was soooo flavourful. the Chicken Tikka Masala was better than the ones I've had at other places too.The cherry on top of this dining experience was definitely the Royal Naan. I didn't know regular ol' Naan could be transformed into such an amazing side dish/dessert. Definitely order that when you go. Prices are reasonable too. I like this restaurant better than India Samraat. Waaaaaaaaaaay better than India samraat. read more

Ordered delivery using DoorDash. Everything was ok but dal tadka had taste of chicken. I'm a vegetarian but know the smell. I don't expect this from any decent restaurant read more

A hidden gem in Kenmore Square, India Quality truly lives up to their namesake. When I worked nearby I frequently came for lunch and was always impressed. Some of the best Indian food in Metro Boston! read more

To my tastes this is the best take out in Coolidge Corner, a ray a sunshine on bleak Covid days. The lunch special includes generous portions of 3 delicious dishes (your choice from about 6 offerings) with rice and fantastic freshly made Naan. Don't miss the samosas. I was surprised by their soft and crispy texture and flavorful filling reminiscent of gourmet knishes. Maybe the inspiration for Eastern European cooking? read more

Two good things: Fast Delivery and Good Portions for the Price. Ordered: 1) Samosa chaat-Hardly could taste the Samosa only the Yoghurt and Chickpeas 2) Chicken Tikka Masala(CTM)- Well what do I say! I am so disappointed. I think this is one of the worst CTM's I have ever had. The gravy was undercooked. The pieces of Chicken were boiled and then coated with a dark orange food color and just maybe roasted like for 30 seconds or less. The gravy was not even close to being a CTM gravy. Feel sad I ordered it. If you a are running an Indian restaurant with North Indian dishes , you CANNOT get your CTM so wrong. It is the most common and most loved dishes of all and if your chef cannot get a CTM right time to hire a new one! read more

Last time I had this food was last year and it was good. Ordered takeout today and it was sub par Had the chicken tiki masala Garlic nan Lentil soup Chicken was tender but really lacked in flavor with the sauce Garlic naan tasted nothing like garlic was soft but was deff a bit burnt. First time having lentil soup here. Not sure if this is how it always taste but would not recommend it. Had an undesirable dish wash taste to it Not sure if the dine in experience would be the same but this particular moment they were off their game. read more

Case and point: food was delicious! I wanted a gluten free option so I went with the Chicken Tikka Masala with rice (pretty basic). The portion was spot on: just enough rice and chicken to make it all work. The chicken was fragrant and aromatic, spicy and absolutely delicious. As a nice touch, they include free coffee or tea with lunch. Having a whole lunch for under $9 for this quality was a real treat. Don't be fooled - the fact that this place is in a basement and hasn't been updated in 20 years doesn't mean they don't deliver some great Indian food! read more

I probably average 2 trips here every week, it is my favorite place hands down. Everything I have gotten from their menu has been absolutely amazing but I have settled into a rhythm of getting the vegetable masala and garlic or peshwari naan. Servers are very nice, restaurant is super cozy, takeout always somehow includes the perfect amount of rice. The only reason I can possibly think of not to come here would be if you are concerned you will become addicted to their food. would leave 6/5 stars if possible. Long live IQ. read more

I've been eating at this restaurant for over 20 years and never tire of it. The owner and wait staff are very hospitable and friendly. I have never had a dish here that I didn't like. The Spinach Poori is delicious. read more

I have been coming here for almost 20 years, this is the best india cuisine I ever had in Boston. The spices, food and services are very good. read more

The sauce was runny and tasteless, the meat was tough, and the naan tasted like damp paper. I'm only giving this 2 stars due to covid. My wife's korma was edible but my tikka was not. Not worth it. read more

Amazing restaraunt with great customer service that always delivers the goods. Easily my favorite Indian restaraunt in boston and would recommend to anyone. read more

Ordered delivery---butter chicken and tikka masala with naan basket. Delivery was on time and food was still hot! Both dishes were delicious! Overall, I feel like naan is hard to transport, but was decent. Will definitely be ordering again! read more

I LOVE the chicken tikka marsala from here. I accidentally discovered it when I received a wrong postmates order and ended up eating it because I was so hungry! They give a very decent sized portion to make you feel full. Got it delivered to me for the past two days! Am very obsessed. The chicken tastes extremely fresh and the mixture of the tomato cream with the chicken and the rice is excellent! Highly recommend :) read more

I had the goat meal masala and it was amazingly good! It was my first to see goat meal in a menu in USA ( I'm not a local) It came with bones, which was not my problem. The sources was a little bit hot with tomato favor. Anyway it tasted gorgeous. Me and my friends loved here and we definitely would come again. read more

What incredible food! The BEST Indian cuisine in Boston!!! Highly recommend the chicken tikka masala :)

Hard to believe this place has 4 stars ! To put it bluntly, the food was quite HORRIBLE.. right from the Daal makhni, butter chicken to the chicken biryani. Everything was bland and for some reason they added bell peppers to everything. After spending 25 years in Punjab, this was the first time I saw a Daal Makhni that was green in color. Worst of all we called to give them feedback and they didn't care( Negative marks for the manager's attitude). Save your money !! read more

I've been ordering from this restaurant for a while now and it has always been good if not excellent. Today I ordered for delivery my go to Indian dinner. The only change I made was I ordered it "mild". The chicken korma might as well Be your grandmas creamed chicken. Totally tasteless with none of the Korma spices. I called and complained and they delivered the korma again but with medium Spices. It was the same korma without any Indian spices that makes it so delicious only it was spicy. The same was true of the eggplant dish I also ordered. What happened to this restaurant? The naan tasted like it was cooked yesterday, the tamarin sauce was totally watery, the rice was fine. I will never order here again. I hope this review will make them look at what has changed.....for their sake read more

Came here for an early Sunday dinner. The restaurant was quiet and intimate and the service was very prompt and attentive. We started off with the samosa chat which is a must - you get all the samosas and all the sauces, samosas will never be the same! For dinner we split the chana paneer masala dinner special as well as the malai kofta. Both were rich and creamy without being too heavy. We also ordered the bread basket so we could have a sampler of the naan, paratha, and chapati. This was the only let down of the meal, the naan was out of this world whereas the paratha and chapati were pretty flavorless albeit great vessels to scoop up the curry sauce. However for our next visit we will probably just stick to the naan- I'm still drooling just thinking about it! We were so hungry and everything was so good, we didn't even think to take pictures but the presentation is just as good as the food itself. If you're craving Indian food in the city, I would highly recommend India Quality. read more

Food is ok. The mango lassi looks like carrot juice. It doesn't look like mango color. And the taste is ok. Not much mango flavor and a bit watery. The worst mango lassi I've ever had. The chicken tikka masala is ok. The flavor is not rich. The worst I've had as well. I mean, the "worst" here means the worst I've tried in all the Indian restaurants. If I don't know they are Indian food, the taste is ok, not horrible. The lamb rogan josh is good though. I like that they add chickpeas and raisin there to give it a bit of texture and the lambs are tender. read more

I ordered through Grubhub and it was delivered way too early. Don't know why but the delivery guy showed up 30 minutes earlier than I scheduled it. Food was tasty but too spicy considering I asked for mild. Would not order again. read more

This place is completely unassuming but totally amazing. We walked here for dinner from the Hynes Convention Center based on a local recommendation, and it was worth the walk. First of all, they have a good selection of Indian beer, which is a good accompaniment to wonderful food. Our group ordered a bunch of dishes to share at the table. I got the lamb vindaloo, which was super spicy and flavorful. My fellow adventurers ended up ordering a mixed grill, which is essentially a combination of all the kinds of meat that they prepare here. It was the highlight, and I immediately had major meal envy. But, we were sharing, so I had plenty of that. I might have had a few too many Old Monk beers that night because I don't remember exactly what my other companion ordered, other than it was amazing and not as spicy as my vindaloo. This place will knock your socks off. I would highly recommend checking this place our for lunch or dinner if you are nearby. read more

I'm VERY picky when it comes to Indian food and this is by far the best I've had in Boston. Been a regular customer for 5 years and always go for the lamb and/or paneer masala with garlic (or sometimes pashwari) naan. read more

GREAT chicken tikka masala and the sauce was phenomenal. Medium spice was the perfect temperature for me. I ordered the vegetable Jalfrezi which was okay but too spicy for me as I ordered it as "spicy". I'll try a new vegetable dish though next time, maybe in a creamier base or order the same dish in medium heat. I'll definitely order again. read more

Not bad, not amazing. There are definitely better and cheaper Indian restaurants available in Boston. Overall everything was fine but I probably won't go back knowing there are better options right around the corner. read more

I love India Quality and have been there dozens of times. The food is great and the servers are always very nice to us. If I am going out for a good dinner, it is one of the first places I think of. It is also family friendly. The interior might not be the most fancy, but the food makes up for this. Highly recommend read more

We had a dinner party here recently, and it was my first time at Maharaja. The food was delicious--and my lamb biriyani leftovers got better at home! Most importantly, the team at the restaurant was over the top welcoming, and made our special night feel extraordinary! read more

This is probably my fault for ordering something with mango in Boston in dead of winter, but the Mango Chicken was bland and smelled vaguely like baby food. The veggie fritters were OK, nothing special. Broccoli naan was nice. read more

The food was delicious and the service was attentive and nice! We had the Chicken Korma and it was absolute to die for. The servings were portioned really well I couldn't believe how much food we got for the price. We will be coming back any time we are craving Indian food! read more

LOVE THIS PLACE! The lamb is very tender, but not fatty. Definitely recommend. Also, the naan with fruit is amazing. On top of the great food, the service is excellent! I have eaten at the restaurant as well as ordered delivery and I have had great experiences with both. read more

This is our go to for Indian delivery. They tend to take a little longer on delivery but the food is delicious and worth the wait. These are large portions as well. I've had chicken tikka masala, mattar paneer, vegetable and chicken pakora, different naans, rice and the mango lassie. Everything is yummy and hits the spot! read more

I have been trying navratan Korma at other Indian restaurants and India quality restaurant continues to be the all time BEST navratan korma I have ever had. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough!!! read more

Best Indian in Boston! Chicken Tikka Masala is fantastic. Lamb curry is also good. Well priced lunch specials that come with entree, rice, as well as tomato and onion salad. read more

India Quality is just that. Its a good choice for quality indian food, with great service. My fiancé and I have been walking by for a long time and decided to give it a chance tonight. We're so thankful we did. My fiancé got the chicken vindaloo. The chicken was moist & tender, the potatoes were cooked to perfection, & the spices were spot on. I went with my usual go-to Aloo Gobhi. I feel like this is a dish that you can't go wrong with and the same goes for India Quality's take on it. Its cauliflower, potatoes, & peas in a light sauce with spices. It was mouth was mouth watering as always. We decided to split an order of Malai Kofta & it was amazing. Its cheese balls with vegetables, spices, and nuts in a delicious cream sauce. We couldn't get enough of the l sauce, we found ourselves dipping our naan in it, as to not waste any. If you're in the Kenmore area & in the market for some truly quality Indian food, I would highly recommend giving them a chance. read more

India Quality Restaurant - Indian Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Very good food! I'm Indian and I love restaurant style Indian food and this place is great! I always get the malai kofta. It's really yum! Chicken tikka and lamb saag is good too. The naan are only good if you dine in. For some reason the quality of the naan declines with take out, so I usually get trader Joe's garlic naan and warm it up at home when I order food from here. The samosa chaat is also really nice. read more

The food is mediocre, it lacks all spices. The restaurant seems very unhygienic (esp the washroom)

If you're looking for the best Indian food for your dollar it has to be this place. Their lunch special is incredible and the food tastes amazing too. If you've never had Indian food before or are indecisive the Chicken Tikka Masala is incredible. If you're looking for something that is maybe not what everyone always gets, I highly recommend the Lamb Pasanda. Their naans are great, the service is great. I have never had a bad experience here and I give it my highest recommendation! read more
