1 year agoThe Samosa here had a crispy outer shell, and the filling was a curry mix of chicken and potatoes—same seasoning for both. It was a bit dry, though. The naan was warm and decent, but the middle was unbearably salty. 😅 The chicken dish had rice with a unique seasoning—definitely turmeric—but it was a flavor I wasn’t familiar with. Still, it was pretty good. The dessert, on the other hand, was so sweet it scared me a little. Trying out unfamiliar flavors was fun, but for the price, it wasn’t worth it. The place lacked service, and the to-go utensils were overpriced. The restaurant’s focus on Indian street food didn’t quite meet my expectations. The total bill for two, after tip, was $66…

3 months agoSamosa Mama is definitely the best Indian food I've had! Its a small shop which i love since it gives it a cozy feel. The food is nothing but amazing. The owners are always there and are the sweetest. Definitely try the Aloo samosa with the mint chutney and the mango lassi.

1 year agoThe restaurant is very clean but small. The customer service is great, with staff being very attentive and friendly. The samosa is decent, though nothing particularly special, and the dishes overall lack much spice and aren’t spicy at all. They offer great specials at decent prices, which is a plus. However, the food doesn’t feel very authentic. Their curry is the most disappointing item. Very watery and lack of flavor

2 years agoMy sis referred us to this new spot and I’m so happy to eat some authentic Indian food! Our meals definitely had a kick and was well made 😍 For me the rice was just a bit watery or maybe the sauce from my butter chicken made it feel that way texturally but it was still enjoyable. The mango chutney is DELICIOUS, definitely the star of the show and pairs well with the naan. Really good portions too 🍽️ also, I highly suggest getting the chicken samosas 😮💨 I’ll definitely try it out again on the weekend Note: my sis said it tasted even better for her on the weekend and I went on a weekday AND did it to go
