My bf and I order a lot of Indian in SF and both agreed this was some of the best Indian wed had in a long time. The monkfish was the highlight for me and spicy lamb biryani was the other highlight. Would absolutely recommend if you're looking for great portions, well cooked authentic Indian.

I came here with my team the other night. The first hour of our experience was pretty horrendous,…read morewith our reservation being somehow completely useless as we waited for about 30 minutes for our table. Apparently some people had been sitting at our table for far too long and they could not get them to leave. We ended up being crammed into to a far-too-small table right next to them, and I could see why. They were absolutely hammered. One girl had a cackle so loud that after she left, no joke, a few of us could hear our ears ringing. It was so bad that when they did finally leave, an hour after we got there, the entire dining room (downstairs) applauded. A round of applause for a departure! I have never heard such a thing. It was funny as hell. The servers offered up some "free" starters and drinks, but then put them on the bill afterward. Nice. The only reason my review isn't one star at this point was because I had had a better experience the first time I came here, and the food, while nothing too original, is still decent. That said, if this place is busy, I would recommend you move on and go somewhere else. You will probably suffer through poor service and no accommodation for it.

The first impressions were good and the interior is well maintained and clean. The seating arrangement is also pleasant with two level seating whether you want to sit on level one or the ground floor. The service was also impeccable and we were shown to our table instantly. Everything was going on well Cons we ordered, the food arrived and we couldnt believe how small the portions were. We were all disappointed and although we didnt say anything we ate, paid and left still hungry and way out of pocket!!! The downside is that they are expensive and there portions are way too little. if you can afford it, thats not a problem but otherwise I think you can get better priced restaurants for a similar menu.

Stepping into Masala Zone is like entering the taste buds of India. The cuisine here is proper…read moreIndian, not that trendy stuff that Westerners usually buy into. I came to this place with two of my friends from Delhi and they were explaining the origin of the food before me: what region it came from, the cultural reasons behind the use of those particular ingredients. It was like an Indian food seminar. The waiters and waitresses were just as knowledgeable as my Indian dining companions. The whole experience was a festival of learning. Their food is delicious. They serve platters with all kinds of yoghurts, nans and house specialties. I got the smallest platter thinking that I could devour it whole in a matter of milliseconds, but surprisingly it was very filling. My other friends who got the larger platter couldn't finish their meal. The place is cheap as well (I spent £11 for my platter and a cold beer), so I would definitely suggest going if you have severe Indian food hankerings.

Masala Zone is one of my guilty pleasures and one of very few companies I ever use for Friday night…read moretakeaways ... they offer particularly good value when really hungry. However, my most recent visit to an actual branch proved that Masala Zone is not a good option if you just fancy a light meal. The streetfood starters seem like a good choice but I've actually tried most of them before and they tend to be on the greasy side. Having been lucky to get an outdoors table on the patio out front (overlooking traffic, but still ...) we decided to leave without ordering. Sushi across the road was the answer on this occasion. The upmarket chains (Wagamama, Dishoom, Busaba Ethai et al) all seem to employ the same interior designers, this branch of Masala Zone was dimly lit with dark tables - very pleasant but formulaic.

Sorry but I didn't think the food was very good. We went last Friday. The interior is quite nice,…read more quite dark and restful. It had a few diners. Service was attentive and friendly. However, the food I thought was mediocre. The prawn puri we had to start was not bad, but the chicken jarfrezi consisted of large slices of union, very little in the way of sauce and some chicken pieces that had come off a tandoor kebab stick (they had holes in the midle) rather than be cooked for the dish. It was pretty tastless as was the chicken tikka massala. There is much better to be had I'm afraid.
