I came to this Watertown location only because we keep passing this in a car ride. Food is what I remembered from the Jamaican playing location, but this takeout was basically self-service kiosk and not even sure if they took cash which worked fine for me and once you place it you get your food. It's a little impersonal honestly, but it's such a tiny space to sit down like two tables and they have this whole back section which seems to be the kitchen I think, it was quite blocked off. Nice to know of this location I think this is just a good place to just take out.

Can't wait to try more from here but my first go was: Spicy Chicken Karahi. It was super good, definitely has a kick so make sure you have a spice tolerance! Love the chicken and rice used.

Individuals' experiences have been inconsistent. Tonight was my second order, and like with the first, my expectations were both fulfilled and exceeded. This time, the delivery was much quicker and just as pleasant as usual. The food was delicious. Would suggest Taste Boom-Watertown

I am so glad Flavor Boom Boom opened up a second location in Watertown! They have a small parking lot of the side. I got the shrimp curry and it was pretty good. You get a good amount of shrimp and rice. I wish there was some sauce on the side but overall, amazing!

I was so pleasantly surprised to find this hidden gem! The food is outstanding, the place is spotless and bright, and the service was welcoming and cheerful!Natalie suggested I get boomin beef rendang- and boy was that the best suggestion I've had all day. The beef was melting in my mouth, the spices were never like I've had before- so aromatic and melding incredibly well with the braised beef, potatoes, and rice. And to top it off this dish is both gluten free and dairy free! I'm bringing my son back tonight to get dinner! The prices are more than ok, and Natalie was so helpful and sweet, and on point, that I feel like I made a friend as well! Awesome stuff Flavor-Boom!!!!Go see this place! It's right on Arsenal st halfway to Target!

Excellent food! We had the Boomin' Beef Rendang and it was delicious! The woman serving was very nice and friendly and let us sample a few things before deciding since it all sounded so good. We sampled the Burgundy Braised Beef and the Spicy Chicken Karahi which were both delicious too! The restaurant is small with only 2 or 3 tables. Highly recommend!
