Good food, but don't push your luck.

If you’re craving Indian food that doesn’t just roll out the same boring dishes, Masala Ministry is your spot. The rabbit and mussel starters are a real flex, apparently the sort of stuff that makes you reconsider why you ever thought about ordering a curry from a takeaway menu. Shoutout to Niloi for giving it a touch of finesse and making sure your experience is more than just a plate of food - it’s a culinary affair. But, let’s be real. The highs are high, but there’s a couple of duds in the mix, like when one reviewer couldn’t even recognize their dish. Is it a ‘blip’ or a ‘trend’? Only one way to find out, and it’s probably worth the risk. Just hope you don’t end up with a cold plate on your table.

Overall, it’s definitely a solid choice for Indian cuisine, but just keep in mind that the experience can be hit or miss, especially during busy nights. If you're lucky, you might be singing its praises like Devin, but bring your patience just in case.
