About this business

Way back in the 14th century, the Moghuls invaded Hindukush, "the land of milk, honey and other rich treasures". In return, they left behind a trail of destruction, and well, the kebab. The kebab was, at the time, just meat sprinkled with salt, which was then barbecued and gobbled up by this army on the move. But soon it caught the fancy of Indian chefs. And by their very capable hands, the kebab was perfected into a sublime art. They choose the finest meats, created an amazing array of marinades in which these meats were tr... read more

Despite its name, this place is more of an upscale Indian restaurant than a carry-out joint. – This restaurant sports an upscale feel and decor similar to those of its sister establishments. Diners look through the glass that separates the dining room from the kitchen and view sizzling skewers of kebabs. The signature Kundan Kaaliya dish (carved mutton on a bed of rich, saffron-flavored gravy with edible gold leaves) is quite a sight.

Very fresh and flavorful – Had avoided this place for some time because prices seemed a bit high but took a chance and was thoroughly pleased with dining experience. It doesn't look like much from outside but inside is pleasing and warm and food selection is far beyond the standard Indian fare. Dishes were all bursting with fresh flavors and we could hardly get enough. In the end portions are very large (one entree could be shared by two) so cost was not at all a dissapointment

Good Indian – The food here is really good and they have a number of great kebab dishes that you can get. Also try the naan sampler which lets you have one of each of their 4 different naans - the garlic naan is the best and has real chunks of garlic.

Great Kebab and more – Love this place. It's right across street from Dali in Somerville. On street parking is not that hard. It's not too big, but well decorated. The staffs are friendly, unlikely many other rude Indian servers at many Indian restaurants. We got a free apertizer before the meal, a bonus. Their kebab came in a bronze pot to keep it warm. I had the best lamb kebab ever, it's well marinated and spiced, for just $15. They also have many seafood dishes which are unusually for an Indian restaurant. You definitely... read more
