A unique take on Indian street food has arrived in Royal Palm Beach, FL., with the recent opening of Masala Mantra, a family-owned restaurant on Southern Boulevard.
Masala Mantra features contemporary twists on traditional Indian flavors and dishes, as well the creative story behind its design, conceptualized by Hridaan Patel, the young son of founders Purnima and Krunalbhai Patel.
Using the video game Minecraft, Hridaan Patel helped create the restaurant’s ambiance, capturing the vibrancy of India’s streets with a playful, modern twist, and offering a dining experience that is as visually engaging as it is delicious.
Krunalbhai Patel describes Masala Mantra as more than a restaurant.
“This is an immersive journey into the essence of Indian street food, re-envisioned through a contemporary lens,” he said. “Each dish is crafted to narrate a story, blending tradition with innovation in a manner designed to surprise and delight our patrons and their palettes.”
Masala Mantra’s ambiance sets the stage for a one-of-a-kind gastronomic adventure. Hridaan Patel’s vision demonstrates how traditional elements can be creatively reinterpreted to blend with Krunalbhai and Purnima’s fresh and innovative perspective on Indian cuisine.
Dishes include entrée favorites such as Jini Dosa, Biryani, Chicken Lollipops, and Stuffed Mushrooms, and desserts like Chocolate Samosa. Crafted cocktails include the Marsala Martini and the Kalakhatta Mojito.
Restaurant hours are Sunday to Thursday, 11:30AM – 3PM, and 5PM to 10PM; Friday and Saturday, 11:30AM – 3PM, and 5PM to 10:30PM.
