Masala is a fabulous Indian restaurant. It is easily the best in Dorchester. They were happy to prepare a dish not on their menu (Shashlick Phaal) for me and it was exceptional. The balance of spices and heat complimented the tender succulent chicken that I ordered. The Tarka Daal was a perfect accompaniment and the rice was perfect too. The staff are very good, friendly and efficient without being overbearing. They timed their visits to the table with perfection. Despite not living in the UK, I have been to this restaurant many times and have never been disappointed. Highly recommended.

We ordered online, a delivery for two. We live 2.4 miles away. It was on time. Sadly the temperature and the food were a let down. The food was barely warm. The vegetable samosas had little flavour, and a soft pale yellow texture. Onion bhajis a bit better but cold. Our naans we’re almost OK, fresh and nearer warm enough in their closed envelopes. But my vegetable curry had little taste and with the surprising exception of the potatoes the other vegetable were over cooked and the dish u invitingly cool. My partner struggled to find the enthusiasm to finish her chicken. We chose Cafe India because of some good meals eaten at the restaurant over the years but our using CI for a delivery was a bad decision.

Went in without booking on a Monday evening. It was really busy making a nice lively atmosphere, but we were seated quickly having waited for a few minutes in reception looking at the menu. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Service was quick. Food was really good. We had poppadums and pickles, followed by a biryiani and a tandoori mixed grill. Both were tasty and big helpings. You could probably share a dish with a naan each and it would be fine. Would recommend.
