• Best Veg Indian in Boston

I love Indian food (especially South Indian), am vegan and this is by far my favorite Indian restaurant in the Greater Boston area. Their Uttapam and Dosa options are their best dishes (with excellent coconut chutney and sambhar) and I've enjoyed the appetizers I've tried. Their entrees are good, but their soups (besides sambhar, which is not really a soup) are mediocre - I did not care for their mulligatawny (have had much better). They have vegan items marked on their menu - almost half of their menu is vegan. I'm not sure about their latest menu, but the first version of their menu had a few things mismarked, one "vegan" dish came with the green mint chutney (which is NOT vegan) and several of their breads are vegan, but were not marked vegan (roti & poori). I also heard them refer to their Indian pizza idea (don't think this has happened yet) as "100% pure vegetarian" by which they mean cow-cheese w/o rennet, not vegan as some might think. So I wouldn't say they're as vegan-friendly as they could be, but they are much more so than any omnivore Indian place (and more so than the Ashland and other MA veg Indian places I've been). Location is convenient if you live near Somerville or Cambridge - it's not very close to the subway (maybe 1.5 miles walk from Porter). They have a buffet on weekends which has a lot of vegan options (which are marked) - definitely worth trying. FYI, this place used to be "Dosa Temple" (was affiliated with another restaurant of the same name), but now is called "Dosa 'N Curry" (no longer affiliated).
