The idli is well made and soft. Recommend the podi idli and chicken chettinad. Very good chicken biriyani too. The filter coffee and tea are machine made and very good. Recently Vaanga has had a $2 increase on all food items and it has self service so you pick up food to take to your table and clear out once you are done

It is a nice Indian restaurant in the Downtown of Boston. Service is good. Food is delicious. Need to to change internal ambiance. Busy every time. Coconut Bondam (Thai) are also available. I recommend the Mirchi Bajji.

The food was very good and tasty. Had ordered rice with kadai paneer and it was well made and tasty. The restaurant was bustling with people, so guess it speaks for that. The prices were very reasonable.

Got the masala dosa and kaara dosa. Masala dosa was huge, accompanied with coconut chutney and sambhar. Chutneys with sambhar and masala dosa tasted well, kaara dosa very spicy, recommended for spicy food lovers ONLY.

I have been to Vaanga twice now and have decided that it my favorite Indian restaurant yet. My go-to here is the chicken tikka masala, and it is quite good. I have had this dish from several different restaurants and theirs is by far my favorite. It is an explosion of sweet and tangy flavors, with chicken cooked to perfection and tastefully added peppers and onions atop perfectly cooked rice. I liked that they had Thums Up and Limea to add Indian flavors to even the beverage options. I got the mango lassi after I was done eating and it was very good. Mango lassi is rarely bad, but theirs was particularly good. The dining room was very cute and they had a great selection of music. One song that stood out to me was “Jimikki Ponnu” by Anirudh Ravichander. It was fun to hear Anirudh playing at a restaurant considering he is one of my favorite artists. Overall I highly recommend Vaanga!

Ordered food from this place for the first time. Firstly, got to say I loved their menu. Great names for the dishes and nice creativity. We ordered biryani, noodles, malabar poratta and mango lassi. The food was very spicy but good food. I mean good food in the sense it taste like a nice Indian food but not authentic. The paratha was like a freezer one and not hand made, biryani taste was amazing but it’s not masthan bai biryani. I expected local Indian food taste based on the menu names but it wasn’t. Overall, great Indian restaurant food, tasty food, lot of dish varieties, but comes with extra cholesterol (I mean over oily and salty)

Decent Indian restaurant with variety of street food. We had ordered the vegetarian noodles and lamb burger and loved it. However their vada pav can be better. Don’t expect much for ambiance.

I have only ordered takeout from this place. I ordered biryani 3 times and I thought it was average at least 2 times. I cannot unfortunately comment about the atmosphere and the service itself. However, I have been reading reviews and the reply of management on reviews and I think those were some of THE WORST replies I have read. It looks like management doesn’t care about the customers and is extremely rude. I wouldn’t want to visit this place or even order takeout from now on if this is the kind of attitude the management thinks they can get away with.

We came looking for tasty Indian food. Found it. It was spicy, even medium is hot so be warned. The place doesn’t look like much, and in all honesty it is pretty lowbrow from an ambiance standpoint. The clientele aren’t doing their residencies at MGH, Boston University or Tufts. They are more likely to have come straight from India on a J1 work visa for some IT company. But you’re not coming here for the latest Todd English atmosphere, you’re coming for hot and yummy. Be prepared to wait a bit, and you won’t be wrong to order it as takeout to avoid the time issue. But you will scratch that itch for good Indian food-at least on a busy Sat night!
