Kuddos for WORST service ever!!! 5/1/2010

In my 20+ years of eating at restaurants regularly, I can truly say that the worst service I have ever received is at Kashmir's... This is the first review I have ever written ever but I thought such poor service merits a comment... Pros: Outside seating and hookas in summer Cons: Mediocre food accompanied by pathetic service more

Great ambience. 2/27/2009

The food here was exellent. The service was very fast. We went on a Friday evening and the restaurant was busy yet very little wait on seating or our meal. Superb lighting and over all fun feel to the place. We often dine out at Indian restaurants in Florida and none can compare to Kashmir. If you enjoy Indian cuisine you will love this place. Pros: Great atmosphere, food , location, price, waiter with pony tail Cons: close seating,small table, limited wine list more

Worst Service Ever 10/21/2008

Decor 5, Food 5, Service 0. My friend had visited us from Florida and Kashmir was recommended to us by a friend. We had a great day out in Boston and at Newbury Street. We initially decided to drive back home, but instead went to Kashmir, again b/c of recommendations from a trustworthy friend. No matter how the food tastes and the restaurant is decked up, if you don't have a service to compliment, then the experience is ruined. This is exactly what happened to us. It ruined our day!!! Pros: Ambience, Decor Cons: Service, Service and Service... more

DISGUSTING! 9/15/2008

I took my boyfriend here for his birthday. We have been to every area Indian restaurant except for Kashmir and we will never go again. It was Sunday afternoon; the order was delivered in about 5 minutes so it was not fresh, just reheated. The shrimp masala had 2 pieces of shrimp floating in tomato soup but at least looked like food. The Lamb Kabob was the most disgusting looking, smelling, and tasting dish I have ever encountered. Without exaggeration, it smelled like diesel fuel. You couldn?t even tell what it was. The 2 brown rolls looked like excrement on a bed of rice. I couldn?t even look at it. My boyfriend tried a small piece and gagged. We could not believe that anyone would serve something like this and then charge $50 for giving us nausea. There are many good Indian restaurants, this is not one of them. Pros: Prompt Seating Cons: The Food more

Do not go! 8/27/2008

So my husband wanted to, and I already hated the food here, but I said can't hurt to try to buffet. The worst indian food i've ever had is an understatement. Their milk based desert had actually gone bad, and they continued to serve it even after we told the waiters that it was bad. Since I'm Indian I knew the difference of the tastes, but they didn't care. Really bad food, go to Bindi Bazaar on Mass Ave which is much better if you are looking for decent Indian Food. Pros: Outdoor seating & newbury st location Cons: Bad Food more

Great food, attentive wait staff 1/22/2008

We were promptly seated at a romantic corner table. The waiter was very attentive even though his American was limited. Our drink order was promptly taken and quickly filled. We each had Mulligatawny stew with hot paan. It was delicious, the complex spices were perfect, spicy not too hot. Our meals Pros: romantic ambience, fresh Ingredients Cons: parking more

Lost opportunity 5/10/2007

Kashmir is a disappointment. It's in such a prominent location, it should be great, but it's just okay. I've never had a horrible experience there, and only go because it is close and the buffet makes it easy to get in and out quickly. But the food is unadventurous and bland--always a little disappointing, like they are afraid to give us ignorant Americans the real thing. To the owners, I say this: Spice it up! Live a little! We can take it! Don't be ashamed of real Indian food. The Indian cuisines are some of the best in the world, but what you're giving us here isn't a fair representation. Pros: Buffet makes it a relatively quick experience Cons: Food is boring. more

One of my favorites on Newbury Street, Great Outdoor Seating on a warm day 4/27/2007

This is one of my favorite Newbury street establishments as well as one of my favorite upscale Indian restaurants. Everything I have ordered here has been really excellent, although not as spicy as completely authentic Indian food. The soups are particularly delicious. They also have a really great lunch buffet - generally buffet food is not that great, but at Kashmir it is an extensive spread and the quality is still maintained. The ambiance is modern with traditional Indian touches - it is absolutely beautiful and a cozy romantic spot for a date. I love the outdoor seating as well - it's a great place to people watch! The service inside is excellent - friendly, attentive, and efficient. It is a little slower outside. Pros: Beautiful ambiance, friendly service, delicious food Cons: Parking is hard, service outside a little slow more
