About this place
If cheese naan is what you’re after, you can order it as part of a set with a curry of your choice or make the naan the star of the meal. Masala Station’s cheese naan is stuffed with cheese, and diners have remarked on its generous size and filling quantity of cheese. One person who ordered the lunch cheese naan set with keema curry recalled that both the naan and curry were substantial. Another diner said they were able to take home the naan they couldn’t finish. It’s an option for a hearty meal, though the reported portion size may be worth bearing in mind if you have a smaller appetite.
Curries range from saag prawn, with spinach and shrimp, to spicy fish tikka masala made with oven-grilled marlin. There’s also mild butter chicken simmered with tomato and butter, as well as chicken pepper masala seasoned with black pepper. Choose a naan to match: options include plain naan, a flaky, pie-like version made by folding butter into the dough, garlic naan and sakura naan topped with plenty of sakura shrimp. You can pick a curry to go with your naan or choose one of the more distinctive breads to enjoy on its own.
For something beyond curry, try the restaurant’s bento featuring keema curry prepared in a gapao-inspired style. A diner who ordered the gapao for lunch described its heat as moderate and said it went well with rice and a fried egg. The menu also lists a gapao bento served with half a cheese naan, a tempting choice if you want both rice and naan. For a drink after your meal, or alongside it, there’s iced caramel chai, described as having a fragrant caramel aroma, and iced coconut chai with its rich coconut-and-milk fragrance. Both are listed on the menu at 450 yen. A sweetly scented chai could make a pleasant contrast to a spice-forward curry.
The restaurant is open for 24 hours from Monday to Saturday, and on Sunday from 12:00 to 22:30. Its late-night and early-morning hours are a particular feature; diners have also noted that it is convenient to find it open late at night. Payment is by cash only, so check that you have cash before you go.
