Rangoli
(Restaurants - Indian)
129 Brighton Ave, Allston  02134 • 617-562-0200
Distance: ~2.84 mi *
        Description: BRIGHTON. Rangoli features Southern Indian cuisine that's top notch. The menu has a large selection of appetizers as well as tasty curries and vegetarian dishes. Locals love the more innovative dishes such as bhel samosa (a deep-fried turnover stuffed with a curried potatoes and green peas), but the old standbys remain as well, like chaat and tandoori dishes. The decor isn't much to speak of, but the well-prepared entrees more than make up for what it lacks.
