    I ordered a giant lunch on Uber eats and was extremely happy. Very fast delivery. Asked for everything to be extra spicy and they delivered and it tasted authentic. Has a lot of Indian food in the city, and this is one of the best. Also great for cost compared to other options since they have a giant menu and much better prices compared to others. I ordered veg momos, samosas, chili paneer, Gobi 65, Laso Gobi, and samosa chaat. Gobi 65 was my favorite since it was fried perfectly with the kick from the extra hot red chilis. Really enjoyed every thing else too so highly recommend. Laso Gobi tasted good, samosa chaat was a bit different take than typical restaurants and also had a bhel puri esque topping. That was a welcome surprise. Samosa is standard, and I got the veg memos as making it different compared to other Indian restaurants. They come with two dipping sauces that are different form typical Indian dips. I thought the chili paneer was a bit oily but still good overall.

    I had a huge craving for curry when I was in Boston this past weekend. I was staying in the Somerville area and decided to check out Curry Express based on their raving reviews! I walked in and first thing I noticed was how clean the establishment is. I ordered the curry goat with roti, while I was waiting for my food the cashier offered me a free cup of masala, which was so, so good! The curry goat was a perfect spicy and the was super tender! The flavors were so authentic. To my surprise they included what I believe was rice pudding, which was a great palate taster. I highly recommend this place if you are craving some authentic Indian Food!

    I have been a weekly takeout customer for years - quality of food is consistently excellent, and delivery is always prompt. By far my favorite Indian place in the area - you can’t beat their pakoras! I can honestly say my quality of life would not be what it is without Curry Express in my weekend.

    Curry Express has become our favorite take out indian restaurant in Somerville. We've been eating here weekly for several years now. They have a minimal dine-in seating, but excellent take out. Orders are usually ready in 20 minutes and rarely delayed. The food is tasty and consistent week to week, we're especially fans of their Chicken Tikka Masala and Saag Paneer.

    Best Nepali and Indian food in town. Very delicious food with reasonable price. They care about their customers and the quality of food they serve was top level. Spices are so aromatic and flavorful. Friendly and attentive staff too! ❤️❤️❤️

    Very delicious food. I am a regular customer, n I have tried almost everything in menu. I love dumplings, korma, samosa, chart, curry n naan from here. I have never been disappointed once. Excellent service n food is freshly made n authentic Indian/Nepalese taste.

    I ordered a paneer tikka roll, it’s actually a big portion for a roll, very tasty and spiced right with fresh veggies. I would recommend the package a bit better, as it’s curried, the bread would eventually go soggy and just the aluminum foil won’t be able to hold it. Luckily I had access to utensils and opened it to a plate. Might have not easy otherwise.

    I stumbled across this amazing little restaurant today! I've never been a fan of Indian food until today! I requested to pay for a sample before ordering and they graciously accommodated me. OMG! Truly delicious Goat Curry & Goat Biryani. Nepali food is so good! I'm such a fan now! Be sure to stop by soon.

    I didn’t understand why mutton curry was made in pure tomato purée. Probably the same stock that is used for all curry despite of the dish. The momo was far far better. Even the chutney was very authentic. Service was excellent

    Great little restaurant right at highland avenue in Somerville. They have a great range of choices and everyone must try their chicken korma and aloo paratha. The staff are friendly and the food is always great

    Curry Express is awesome! I mostly order the chicken curry and chicken tiki masala and both are incredible. Naan is good as well. Would highly recommend!

    Been coming to this place for quite some time and has never been disappointed. Very friendly people and the food is much better than most of the places I been. I believe no one is perfect and to strive towards is the best motto. Happy to see that these guys do so. Reasonable prices as well.

    Five star for this authentic Indian restaurant. I thinks it is one of the best Indian Restaurants in Somerville. We went with other family everyone enjoyed the food, our favourite was the Chicken Madras and Methi chicken, what a tasty dish! All the food is cooked fresh, service is great as well the staff were so kind and accommodating. I highly recommend this place to anyone who really want Indian style flavors.

    The food was fairly good. My only problem is that their med spicy level is actually very spicy. The service is good and the good is fresh.

    Not a great place for dine-in. Take-outs work good. You will not be served as you expect to dine out in a restaurant. That red tray and carry out box is how I was served soup..

    I have ordered chicken 65 and aloo chat through postmates. Quantity is very less firstly and they put burnt mustard seeds on chicken 65 which made the whole taste as worst. Aloo chat such a bizarre taste and didnt even mix the ingredients. And it is so cold so its not even freshly made.
