Masala House is located in the alleys of the Gongguan shopping district in Daan District, Taipei City. The nearest MRT station is at Taipower Building Station, Exit 2, about a 5-minute walk away. The interior decoration has a strong Indian flair, with red patterned wallpaper accented by many hangings, as well as famous Indian architecture and movie stills. The lighting is quite dim, there are many seats, but the tables are rather small.

Upon entering the restaurant, the staff hands you the menu, and you place your order verbally. After dining, you pay the bill. Both cash and credit cards are accepted, and there is no service charge.

Today is a weekend noon visit for a meal; four people ordered four dishes and five types of naan:
🔸 Spinach Curry Lamb $300
The curry has a strong spice flavor, rich and mildly spicy. The lamb is in large pieces and soft, but still carries a bit of a gamey taste, making this dish unsuitable for children.
🔸 Butter Chicken $300
Compared to the previous dish, this one is milder. The chicken is marinated, complemented by a rich creamy flavor, making it smooth to eat.
🔸 Sautéed Potatoes and Cauliflower $200
This includes chunks of potatoes, cauliflower, and tomatoes, cooked very soft and easy to eat. The portion was surprisingly generous.
🔸 Indian-style Fried Egg $120
Made with green chili (not spicy), onion, and tomato chopped finely and fried with the egg; it is quite special but a bit oily.
🔸 Naan $40~80
The first three dishes came with fragrant rice, but we chose to swap it for naan by paying the price difference and ordered five different flavors. There was no special introduction to the flavors of the naan when served, but they all had a slight chewiness and different seasonings, all of which were quite fragrant. They were cut into four pieces for easy sharing, though one downside was that some edges were a bit burnt.

Both the staff and chefs are Indian, and the flavors can be considered quite authentic. Although the presentation of the dishes isn't great, they all tasted good. The main complaint is that the tables really are not enough (or maybe we just ordered too much...? Self-reflection 🤔). We felt quite full after eating, and the prices were within an acceptable range.

The naan is super delicious. The naan from this restaurant is definitely the best Indian naan I have ever tasted🫓 It is super elastic, has a Q-flavor, and is very chewy. It is perfect when dipped in curry; we ordered cream and garlic flavors The scones, each with its own characteristics, are delicious~

As for their curry, although it is not the best Indian curry I have ever tasted, the quality is still above average; we ordered the signature mutton curry and spinach mutton curry. The stewed mutton was not very soft (it is true that it was a bit hard). , but the curry sauce is not bad, it tastes like mutton! And the sauces are abundant and generous. The spinach and mutton curry is different from what I have eaten elsewhere. The spinach is not chopped very fine, and it is very spicy. I prefer the signature mutton curry, which feels more mild in taste!

The spiced milk tea is quite unique, with a bit of cinnamon and cardamom flavor, but not too strong. I think it is quite delicious.

There is a very orange dish called Yogurt Grilled Chicken, which is relatively weak and I don’t recommend it very much (the meat is dry and has no yogurt flavor).

The overall price is actually not expensive, the taste should be considered very authentic, and many Indians come to eat it! The night we ate, we saw three groups of Indians come to dine. However, I won’t go out to the public house to eat at this restaurant, but if I happen to be nearby, I will want to visit again🙏
