Masala Is Opening in Somerville's Teele Square

An Indian and Nepali restaurant is planning to open in the Teele Square section of Somerville, moving into the space where a Thai restaurant used to be.

A check on the space over the weekend confirms that Masala is going to be opening on Broadway in the heart of the square, taking over the spot that was home to Tip Top Thai for about six years before it closed in the summer of 2010. Once it opens, Masala will join several other restaurants in the immediate area that feature at least some Nepali dishes, including House of Tibet in Teele Square, Yak and Yeti in Ball Square, Martsa on Elm in Davis Square, Kathmandu Spice in East Arlington, and Annapurna in North Cambridge.

Currently, there is no specific opening date for Masala; as soon as we get more information on when it might open, we will post an update here.

[September 2 update: According to a spotter of ours within the Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook page, Masala is now open in Teele Square.]

The address for this new restaurant in Teele Square is: Masala, 1127 Broadway, Somerville, MA, 02144.
