Punjabi cuisine, vegan/GF options, supreme samosas, curry challenge



























"In Somerville’s Union Square (23 Union Sq.), I tried Masala Square Indian Kitchen, a family-run place focused on Punjabi cuisine with an emphasis on gluten-free and vegan options; the menu includes masala hummus, paneer wings, eggplant bhartha, channa masala, and brown curry, and they run a $10 lunch special (choice of vegan, vegetarian, or non-vegetarian entree plus an appetizer served with rice and naan) and offer free delivery." - Eater Staff

"Masala Square is serving Fluff naan for the festival. The restaurant is currently offering indoor dining, as well as takeout and delivery." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal

"Aam ka achaar, a spicy, tangy pickled condiment made from green mangoes, mustard oil, and assorted spices, is offered as a flavorful accompaniment to many North Indian dishes on the menu; it’s distinctly sharper and chunkier than sweeter, smoother chutneys and pairs particularly well with the restaurant’s savory items." - Eater

"A 2019 newcomer to Union Square, Masala Square serves Indian food, including hearty and affordable lunch combos that include three items and range from $10 to $13. The friendly restaurant also hosts samosa-making classes (Masala Square’s samosas are particularly good) and features a spicy curry challenge. —RLB" - Terrence Doyle


"Highlighted as a strong lunchtime option that adds to the neighborhood's growing variety of cuisines and is recommended for midday dining." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
