The Taste

(COVID 2021) I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough. I went for the first time last weekend and was thrilled by both the food and the congenital service I received. The Chicken Tandoori Momos are wonderful - a heavenly combination of dumpling and Indian Tandoori. The only caution I'd give is to watch out for the spice! Medium doesn't play around and will leave you wanting some of their Raita! Update 2022: Momos and all the Nepalese food is fantastic, and while they do serve pizza and subs there are other great places in Cambridge to get those, stick with the specialties!

Decent Nepali and Indian food but ordering process and service painfully slow. Ordered chicken Tikka masala, tandoori chicken, chicken momo, and lamb biryani via their online website. The estimated pickup time was 30 min, but it wasn't ready for almost an hour. The food was alright with the chicken momo being my favorite, but definitely not worth the extra wait.

We tried Kantipur Cafe for the first time this weekend and it was great!! We ordered the vegetable samosa, chicken momo, chicken korma, and chicken kadhai. Everything was delicious!! Each dish had great flavor. You can also customize your spice level for the entrees. Great portions and value. The vegetable samosa order came with 2 large samosas. The chicken momo came with 8 pieces. We also received a nice variety of dipping sauces with our order. The entrees come with basmati rice. We ordered online and picked up. Service was fast, efficient and friendly. The restaurant still had their 15% off the entire menu promotion- not sure how long it will last. I can’t wait to order again!

I am glad that there's a restaurant in Cambridge that brings some freshness to the Menu and Taste. They serve one of the best Momos in Boston/Cambridge Area. I tried Tandoori Momos and they were really flavourful. I highly recommend the paneer Tikka as well fyi these tikkas really giant cubes of fresh And soft paneer. They have good number of vegetarian options, and the serving size is good as well. For the restaurant owner, I would have liked to have Mint coriander chutney instead of rice along with Paneer Tikka, since its an appetizer.

I live around the corner. Been coming here since they opened. I can only guess that they are the victim of their own success - but their service has been slipping to a point where it is now absolutely awful. I had a house full of guests visiting from out of town. Despite having had issues with delayed orders in the past, I decided to give them another try. After completing our order we were informed it would take 20 minutes. We dispatched a couple of people to collect the order at the communicated time... and they waited there for another ***40 minutes***. For this they gave us nothing - no discount, no free desert, nothing but a very perfunctory apology. It seems there was a large order before ours. I'm sorry, but I worked in food service for over a decade. I would have been fired if I ever did that to a customer. If you have a large order that you know is going to slow the next order - maybe don't tell them it's going to take only 20 minutes. If you fail to do that, and take 40 minutes out of someone's evening, maybe try and make it right? Won't be coming here again and would urge you stay away. Awful service is becoming it's own epidemic and shouldn't be allowed to spread.
