I went to this place for a quick meal. The people at the counter were passive aggressive and rude to say the least. Anyways, I ignored it and ordered a fried rice dish. It was simply inedible and tasted ‘old’, with too much salt.When I mentioned this to person at the counter he smirked and ignored my comment.Needless to say, won’t return and recommend the same.

The mango lassi was unbearably sweet but had a good flavor to it. I had to dilute it with water. I’ll have to return to try the food.

The food was okay, not good. There are several better options in the area. Their wasn't much flavor in the dishes. Neither the Chaat, nor the Indo-Chinese dishes were spicy. The food was hot and freshly prepared, so that's good. A restaurant named Chutneys not having enough chutney for the vada pav is ironic!

horrible service, rude terrible workers, raw very doughy dumping wrappers that they said were "just cold", blamed us for raw food, do not go here...

We found this place as we were passing by Havard square after the tour and thought of having a light refreshments, ordered samosas and schezwan fried rice and both tasted so good, would recommend this place to anyone around this area

The chana masala was super hot, fresh, and nicely spiced. I don’t get why the giant side of rice was necessary. My daughter hypothesized that the large section of the plate used to be for the entrée but they decided to cheapen things up and use a smaller compartment for the item that didn’t cost next to nothing. What they call a salad is actually some expired lettuce. When you ask for a cup of water, the cup they give you is basically the size of a large thimble. It’s hard to say if I would go back as the entrée was great but the rest was a disappointment and the pricing is what you would’ve expected at a full-service restaurant. Oh, I should also mention that the garlic naan was good.

This chutney is better than the rest of the chain around Boston area. The chicken lollipop and veg manchurian is good.

The food was really bad. I would never go there again. They gave us raw momos. Even the pav bhaji tasted like ketchup(tomato sauce) and the noodles were gross. When I asked for plate or schezwan, or anything else they made a face. The food and service is horrible, and being a Indian, this is the last place I would go to have food.

Great indian food options, menu is great, not overwhelmingly large or overwhelmingly small. Perfect place for grabbing lunch. Located in the heart of Harvard Square, right under Breathe Cambridge/ next to Tasty Burger. The chaat, manchurian, chilli paneer, momos, everything is good. Also very reasonably priced. Restrooms are key operated so ask the them for the key at the cash counter.

Definitely a must try is indo Chinese dish.. really great
