    Wow, wow, wow! What…read morea fantastic place. Best Indian food in all of Orange County. Our server Biannca was super attentive and the other staff filled in without us asking for anything. My wife and I shared the goat cheese nan for an appetizer, lamb chops and chicken baryani for dinner and we were so pleased. I suggest you try this place before Chef Ali becomes a 5 star michellen Chef. Its been a long time since my pellet was this happy to eat food.The dishes were absolutely out of this world and The sauce was sweet and perfectly spicy. I couldn't get enough and nearly ate my fingers. I dont remeber the last time a restaurant had perfect timing between the dishes being served but I was pleasantly surprised how perfect it was. We are coming back and telling all of our friends about this place.

It was disappointing to note that the service was pathetic this time around as we were hosting guests from our of town. The server messed up our order despite our usual reservation and arriving on time. As a result the kids were cranky while the food took an hour to arrive in batches not catering to what was asked (kids first!) The food when it arrived was low on salt and flavor and very unlike our past experience. The restaurant wasn't busy when this happened so I can only imagine the chaos when it is packed (if it ever is with their service and food now). Perhaps the staff has moved to other flagship locations and this location is a poorly run unit now. Not going to recommend this location after the poor experience. I hope they are able to keep up the name at the other locations but for my time and money - the city has better places to offer.

Now you do have to order from the à la carte menu, and it is a little more, but it's fresh and comes with rice. Naan is extra! I ordered extra spicy chicken vindaloo with a side of garlic naan. The portion size was pretty large, the taste was medium spicy but sooooo delicious! I'll definitely be back. I want to try the goat curry. The portion was so large that be eating it for a couple of days! I placed the order with a lady who was pretty helpful. The food came quickly and as I mentioned was fresh, hot, and delicious.

It's not like I'm not into trying new and different dishes, but sometimes I really do want my personal list of hits, just done by a different artist. I guess that would make them covers as well as encores. I do that with steak frites. St. Louis ribs, trout, linguine with clams, and a good hash/skillet at breakfast. But also on that list is goat curry when I feel like Indian. There's something so comfortable and satisfying about it that I can't resist it when it's on the menu. From the first time I had goat with Breanne and her family at their big breakfast shindigs they have every few months, I've always thought goat is an underserved meat. And goat curry is the perfect vehicle for it to be served more. The goat curry at Indian Food Express is immaculate. I could eat that all day. It's subtle in the actual meat, but spicy enough in the sauce. It's chunky, but also broth-like in how well all that great juice and stew of flavors just mixes into your rice. It killed me how gold their version is despite being $5 or $6 cheaper than I being served at other Indian food joints. The service was awesome here too. They took my order fast, they got me my food fast, and checked on me just enough that everything was to my liking. The ambiance is okay here. It's a little small with only a few tables. I could see at a dinner rush or lunch rush it getting pretty cramped up in there. I also didn't like the no fountain drinks to order there. They only had the bottles and cans, which means I had to ration my soda and that I felt thirsty all meal. And that's something you don't want your customers to ever experience. All in all, I love the goat curry here and I know it'll be in my rotation from now on. I'll just have to get used to maybe asking for water to quench my thirst along with a soda. It's a small sacrifice in service of that holy bowl of goat goodness they have there.

This was my friends' first time trying the restaurant, and they really enjoyed it as well. The hospitality and customer service were excellent, and the staff made us feel very welcome from the moment we walked in. The menu has a great variety of food, drinks, and desserts. As a vegan, I was happy to have plenty of options to choose from. The food tasted fresh, was well balanced, and full of flavor. We ordered a variety of naan and breads, which turned out to be one of the best choices because everyone was able to share and enjoy them. My friends loved the biryani, shrimp tacos, and cheese naan, and we all agreed that the Desi Gobi Manchurian was a standout dish. The portions were generous, and four people were able to share comfortably. The drinks were amazing too. From the mango lassi to the margaritas, everything was well made and complemented the meal perfectly. The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was amazing. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back.

Spice Social in Fullerton delivered a refined and memorable dining experience from start to finish. The ambiance is elegant, inviting, and thoughtfully designed. It strikes a balance between modern sophistication and comfort, making it well suited for an intimate dinner, a relaxed evening with friends, or a polished casual outing. The food was excellent. Each dish was beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly prepared with care and attention to detail. What elevated the experience even further was the service. The hospitality was exceptional, and the owner personally took the time to come over, greet us, and ensure that everything was to our liking. That level of attentiveness added a gracious and personal touch that made the evening feel even more special. One of the standout qualities of Spice Social is its broad appeal. It is an excellent introduction for diners who may be less familiar with Indian cuisine, as the menu feels approachable while still offering depth and authenticity. There is a subtle contemporary influence in some of the flavors and presentation, which makes the experience especially appealing to those who appreciate familiar elements alongside traditional Indian delicacies. I would return without hesitation and highly recommend it at any time.

We purchased an extra large for three people and I think there were about 10 slices but they were huge. Each slice was foldable and comparable for two slices. The customer service when we came in was top notch. Since we were new. We were really just guided as to what we should get. And we thoroughly enjoyed what we ordered. We definitely look forward to go back and try some of their recommended items from the menu. It was hot summer night so people were coming ordering going and then coming back to pick up the pizza and take back with them. They're only two people in the restaurant eating restaurant food. Also, the decor was pretty awesome on the walls, heading over to the bathrooms because it was print out of a certain section or a certain paper from the 1800s. That was really cool!

Very unique, so when I saw this was nearby and had different options I was excited to try it. It also had good reviews so it sounded promising. I got the tandoori Pizza and six habanero wings. Unfortunately everything was just average. Pizza wasn't bad or the wings but just normal. Nothing to tell people you have to try this is a reason for me to order again from here. Plenty of indoor seating, some options by the slice but very limited when I went there at 6pm.. only two options meat lovers and plain. If you are hungry and really want pizza, you can try this, but unlike most reviews that are super impressed by this pizza, is day don't expect much and you won't be disappointed.

There is plenty of free parking all around. Inside we were seated on one of the booths. They have a lunch buffet for $20/person. Right off the bat, I was hoping they would have a chicken biryani, but they did not. Here is a listing of all that was available: Plain rice, Vegetable Samosa, Veg. Pakoras, Dal Makhni, Navaratan Korma, Chana Masala, Egg Fried Rice, Kadi Pakora, Aloo Baingan Mirch, Chicken Tikka Masala, Goat Curry, Chicken Tandoori, Chili Chicken, Gulab Jaman and Kheer for dessert. I tried a whole variety of items, but my biggest complaint would be all the food was cold. They had burners on the bottom, but it was not properly heated before transferring to the chafing dishes, so all of the food was not the right temperature. The quality of the food is highly affected because of this. I will rate the items based on taste. If they had been warm/hot, I believe they would have been rated higher. The only thing that was fresh was the naan. They brought this out to the table after you picked if you wanted garlic, chili, or plain. Dal Makhni - this was a good consistency and spice. I enjoyed it with the naan. Vegetable Samosa - the filling was okay, but a bit dry. I had to really use the chutneys to eat it. If this was more fresh/hot, I think it would be better. Chana Masala and Egg Fried rice were also average. There was a small kick to the rice, which was a good surprise. The chicken Tikka Masala was average. Again it was cold. The Chicken Tandoori was a little dry. I really liked the taste of the chili chicken, but it was cold so the outer layer became soggy. Overall we enjoyed a day out and not having to cook but I hope they can fix the problem with the food being cold. Not one item was hot. We might come back to try the dishes a la carte to get a better experience.
