The Dhaba Story
Where Punjabi Tradition Meets Cambridge Soul
"Every dish we serve carries the warmth of a roadside dhaba - honest food, bold spices, and generous portions."
In India, a dhaba is more than a restaurant. It's a gathering place on the highway where travelers find comfort in simmering curries, freshly baked naan, and the unmistakable aroma of spices roasting in a tandoor. Singh's Dhaba brings that same spirit to Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge - a neighborhood kitchen where authentic Punjabi cooking meets the heart of the Greater Boston community.
Our chefs craft each dish using traditional techniques passed down through generations, from the slow-simmered tikka masala sauce with its perfect balance of tomato, cream, and aromatic spices, to the Palak Paneer prepared in true Punjabi style with fresh spinach, herbs, and garlic. Every entrée is served with fragrant basmati rice, and our tandoor-baked Garlic Naan is the perfect companion to scoop up every last drop of sauce.
Whether you're craving our signature Chicken Tikka Masala, the beloved Butter Chicken with its unique blend of nuts, raisins, and spices, or exploring our vegetarian offerings like Paneer Tikka Masala, Singh's Dhaba delivers the kind of food that makes you feel at home - no matter where home is.

Words from the Table
Loved by Cambridge
Food is excellent, and perfect amount for the prices! Great quality. Best Indian food I've had in Boston yet. No reason to go elsewhere. The owners and staff are great people. Friendly and care about the food they serve.
Best Indian food in the greater Boston area. My order is always fast and accurate. The Veg Tikka Masala is delightful and they always accept my spicy request. Their apps are great and you can never go wrong with Garlic Naan.
This might be one of my favorite local Indian restaurants. Their spice blends are truly unique and the flavors are way more intense that some other restaurants. I have had Korma Paneer and Chicken Tikka Masala and they were both exquisite. The service is great and they really are a notch above.
