Mainly Malay dishes, chefs should be guaranteed on the basis of authentic materials, do some processing to make the taste more suitable for Chinese people, more refined.

Daya,the owner of Masala prides himself on making guests feel welcome and well looked-after. After dining here just a couple of times, he started to call me by name. While i always orders the same combination dinner because i can't resist the value for money (120 yuan for a starter,a choice from two main dishes, a mixed vegetable side dish, rice and dessert ), I can't resist trying something new each time, as the dishes never disappoint.

Meals always start with plenty of chips and chutney, delivered almost as soon as you're seated with papadum. I opt for the dal soup, with just enough tangy lemon to cut the density of yellow lentils. Lately I've been stuck on the palak paneer (40 yuan) as my main course, a dish of melt-in-your-mouth home made cottage cheese mixed with the spicy, creamy spinach the Indians do so well. Past favorites have been chicken dish, Tikka Masala and, of course, the Rogan Josh with lamb (ask for it extra spicy!). And who can enjoy an Indian meal without naan? Not me, and mine is always garlic (10 yuan).

I've always loved Indian food, but I'm often put off by restaurants that cover up mediocre ingredients with loads of oily ghee (the clarified butter used in Indian cooking). While the food at Masala is rich with flavor, the dishes don't come drowned in the shiny stuff. I'm no expert, though, and some more seasoned diners might call this restaurant pretty basic (the interior certainly is). But for me, the basic formula of delicious food at very reasonable prices, served by someone who treats me like a guest in his home...well, it works.

Definitely the best Indian food I have ever had. The Lamb Rogan Josh is awesome. The restaurant itself is very nice inside. Service is great. The food is quick and inexpensive. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good night out with partner or friends.

ITS SITUATED AT FIRST EMBASSY AREA IN BEIJING,CALLED YA BAO LU OR JIAN GUA MEN WAI.GO TO GUAN HUA LU TOWARDS RITAN PARK NORTH GATE.MASALA IS JUST BEHIND OF MUSIC BOX KTV AND MUSIC BOX IS JUST IN FRONT OF THE GATE OF RITAN PARK NORTH.

The setting is very classy and romantic if you are there with your better half... but it is also a nice place to go with friends or business dinner/lunch.

Most the waiting staff spoke good English and the food was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. The atmosphere was relaxing. The menu boasted an extensive array of sushi, in varying different forms.Although their selection is very creamy, mayo-y, and cheesy, it is the best sushi you'll find in Beijing, hands down. 

If you go to Sanlitun un Beijing, you do have to try this restaurant !

 Siji Minfu, which literally means people (min) are in happiness (fu) all year round (siji, four seasons of the year), provides the best Beijing Duck with reasonable costs (CNY198 for the whole duck).  The duck, was superb. The skin was crispy and the meat was tender. With the various sauces and accompanying ingredients the overall effect was fun, varied, and tasty. That said, there are some other really delicious things on the menu that are worth checking out. Nice ambience with a largely Chinese crowd. Shrimp was lovely but the star was the duck, and particularly the skin.
