Depth N Green
7 Broad Canal Way, Cambridge, MA
Crema's Take
“Depth N Green is a refreshingly thoughtful Indian spot in Kendall Square that prioritizes clean eating—think small-batch cooking with no artificial colors or seed oils, resulting in dishes that feel homemade and light rather than heavy. The straightforward menu might be modest, but each item is crafted with real care, and the staff's genuine warmth makes the experience feel personal, whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or settling in with your laptop for the afternoon. It's the kind of place that inspires fierce loyalty, where quality ingredients and honest cooking speak louder than flash.”

Not a lot of options, but a solid choice for a vegetarian Indian. Been here a few times for a quick lunch. Unlike most Indian restaurants around Cambridge that prioritize heavy meat and rice dishes, these guys flipped the script and focused more on vegetable entrées like palak paneer and aloo baingan (eggplant and potato curry). The meat options are limited to Butter chicken and Chicken curry, but both were good. Their signature thali (platter) comes with rice, chapati (flatbread), and a few dipping sauces, and the bread was especially enjoyable. One small but memorable detail was the beetroot salad that came with the Butter chicken. Lightly pickled, bright, and really effective at cutting through the curry richness. It’s technically a side dish, but if they sold it by the bucket, I’d be the first one in line to buy a gallon.
Food is made in small batches and it comes close to home made. So the food was fresh and light. No heavy oils. The restaurant is known for no artificial colors and no seed oil. The menu is simple and changes a bit everyday depending on the curry available. It's nice and spacious to sit and dine. The owner was very hospitable. He let us taste the curries before ordering. Appreciate it!
It’s located right next to Paddle Boston in Kendall Square, Depth 'N Green is a great spot for a fresh Indian meal. My butter chicken rice bowl was tasty and the chicken tikka Frankie was solid, though both my curry and my friend’s paneer thali were surprisingly salty. However, the potato fry was easily the best part of the thali, perfectly seasoned and a must-try. Despite the saltiness, the quality is clear and the location makes it a perfect stop after a day on the water. Definitely going to try the Empanosa’s (empanada + samosa) next time
If I had to pick one restaurant where I can have my food for the rest of my life, this would be it. Every dish is crafted to perfection, elevated to the level it has to be at and made from the finest ingredients you can get! Every dish is exquisite! The mango lassi is sublime (Bulgarian grass fed probiotic curd!!) and their home made Gussa brand hot sauce needs its own review!
I loved the friendly people working here. They patiently explained the food and were happy to help struggling people like myself. Located in a crowded but quiet street in Cambridge, it’s a perfect spot if you like Indian food and want to spend time with your family. Food: I am not expert, I liked it but I had better Indian food in East Coast.
