Martsa On Elm - Somerville

I'll definitely be returning! The staff was friendly, the food was delicious and served hot, and I especially loved the spicy ginger chicken!

One of my favorite spots for a lunch buffet in the Boston area!

My favorite at Martsa is chili chicken.You got to try it...delish..mmmmm

My girlfriend and I really loved the food here. Pretty much everything was delicious and so flavorful. The ambience was also very nice quiet and peaceful but also busy as the night went on. The shrimp curry was absolutely amazing. The Bhale Tibetan bread was light and fluffy and so yummy. The soups were both delicious. The Tibetan tea was comforting and tasty but also strange if you hadn’t had it before. The momos (dumplings) were probably our least favorite dish as the dough wasn’t as light and flavorful as we’d have wished. We’d probably award this 4.5 stars if possible a half star deduction because the service wasn’t very good. They were a bit inattentive (we didn’t have our waters filled once without us asking) and they were a bit standoffish. But the speed of the food arriving and the quality of the food compensated well. In any case, we’ll definitely be back!!

We absolutely love Martsa on Elm and try to come weekly or biweekly. The food here is consistently incredible and we’ve tried a lot of the menu. Definitely get the pumpkin appetizer. All of their teas are delicious. My favorite dish right now is the spicy beef noodles. Make sure to order your food quickly because the kitchen isn’t speedy, but it is totally worth the wait.
