Signage alert: Masala East Village on 1st Avenue

Coming-soon signage is up for Masala East Village at 85 First Ave. between Fifth Street and Sixth Street. (H/T Steven!)

The restaurant's website offers this description: "Bombay soul. New York spirit." And: "Big spices, warm hospitality, and the comfort food of India — served right here on First Avenue." 

No word yet on an opening date. 

Masala takes over the space from Fomo Momo, the Indian street-food spot specializing in momos that opened here in late 2024.
