“ Masala Express is hands down one of the best hidden gems in Sonoma County! I tried the Butter Chicken Sandwich, and wow – it blew me away. The flavors are absolutely incredible; the creamy, rich butter chicken combined with the perfectly toasted bun is a match made in heaven. I’ve tried butter chicken at many places, but this is by far the best I’ve had in the area. The restaurant has a laid-back vibe – nothing too fancy, but that’s part of the charm. The focus is clearly on the food, which is exactly where it should be. It’s clear that the owners and staff put a lot of heart into every dish they make. Honestly, I feel like people who don’t appreciate this place either don’t have a palate for authentic flavors or are just upset about something unrelated. The food is top-tier, and Masala Express deserves way more credit. If you’re a true foodie looking for amazing Indian fusion in a relaxed setting, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend – Masala Express is a winner in my book! ”
“ Absolutely delicious, I had the chicken saag for lunch and I’m still thinking about how good it was. I brought my dad an order of lamb vindaloo and he said it was very tender and he loves the warmth of spices. Friendly service, we love coming here! ”
“ This place is very good! The server was very kind and helped me pick out a dish and sides when I asked for recommendations. The butter chicken with “spicy” level spice and a side of cheesy garlic naan bread was delicious. Also got a mango smoothie which was very good. I went at lunch time and there was only one other family eating which is a shame because I feel like this place should be busier. Highly recommend if you even remotely like Indian food. ”
“ Great authentic Punjabi food. They have a cool mix of classics and new takes on dishes like masala wrap and butter chicken pizza. I haven't tried those, but the non-veg Thali was very very good. Came with lamb and chicken and they loaded it with meat. My favorite thing about this place is when they say spicy , it's ACTUALLY spicy. Great prices too for what you get. Very happy will be back. This place being amazing wasn't a fluke. my family and I have been back several times and it's consistently GREAT. Please try the Chole bhature - it's a super unique Punjabi dish that I have never seen at other restaurants in the States. Their chai is superior as well! ”
“ Incredible food! My Dad and I have been wanting a great place in the Airport community to swing by for lunch for years now. This place lived up to our expectations. The food is DELICIOUS. Great veggie options! Bonus it's Indian food, as there are very few places to choose from in Sonoma County. The family who runs it is super sweet. The waitress was super attentive, friendly and kind. It's open as early as 10am which is great for early-birds like us. They are freshly cooking the food at 8am and open with a smile. There is outdoor seating and spacious sitting inside. We are sooo excited to ... it will hopefully be a place we will enjoy for years to come! Thank you! ”
“ Absolutely incredible dining experience! The lamb and goat curry at Massala Express were beyond exceptional – tender, flavorful, and perfectly spiced to perfection. Paired with their creamy, refreshing mango lassi and the fluffiest, most aromatic garlic naan, it was a meal that truly transported me to the heart of India. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about their food. If you’re craving authentic Indian cuisine that hits every note, this place is an absolute must-visit. Can’t wait to come back for more! ”
“ Hubby and I decided to try Masala Express tonight and we were both NOT disappointed! My husband ordered the Daal Makhani which was very flavorful and delicious! I ordered the masala express thali and it was the perfect way to taste a variety of their dishes in small portions without getting too full. We also order garlic naan and my husband said it was some of the best naan he’s ever had. Excellent service and clean restaurant! Come try their food! ”
