I got tikka masala, both the lamb and vegetable samosa, and naan. The masala is so flavorful and something I would absolutely get again. Out of the vegetable and lamb samosa, the lamb was my favorite. Try them both without the sauces first! Their flavors are amazing. Service 5/5: was delivered on time and came hot. Overall I loved this place! The flavors are well balanced and so savory!

One of the better experiences I've had at an Indian restaurant in Minneapolis. Comfortable…read moreambiance, attentive service, and tasty food, nicely presented. Dined here with a couple of colleagues and ordered a variety of appetizers and mains. Standouts for me were the dahi vada and chicken tikka, thought the latter was a bit unusual in that it was a little saucier that I'm used to and came with random bits of vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, etc). A couple things I wouldn't reorder were the lamb rogan josh, which was too creamy for my taste, and the makki ki roti, which was smeared with a little too much ghee. The menu is extensive, and I'd be happy to return to try some of the other items.

The best Indian food I have personally had in Minneapolis (or anywhere, for that matter). I have a love for spice, and am usually disappointed in the spice level offered by places that claim to be spicy! Mdikbal (the owner) delivers on that front without sacrificing flavor of his dishes. His hospitality is commendable, I've been in plenty of times where he will casually drop an appetizer on the house for people to try. The service is always amazing. The ambience is welcoming, although I am always sad to see when it is empty inside. This place is too good for them to be empty!! Located right on lake street, this place deserves to be booming with people. I bid you if you've read this far to give India Kutir a try. You will not be disappointed.

The server accidentally gave us dessert before we got our food, and the owner told them to take it back so we can be served fresh. We got some combo meals that come with side dishes.

Thankfully, my companions were all willing to split dishes, so I could try more than one. We started out with the lentil green onion pancakes. They were don't earth than I had expected. I thought they would be more of a super crispy flat dish, but they have the substance of a real pancake, with savory flavors. Really wonderful. We ordered three entrées, including the jackfruit and the eggplant. The jackfruit was my absolute favorite, but that was not universal. I think it was very well well prepared, but not everyone likes jackfruit and not everyone loves those spices. But it made me so happy. The eggplant dish was pretty good, but the potato two eggplant ratio could be improved. A few too many potatoes and not enough eggplant. Otherwise excellent. The service was fine. The owner did come over and say hello to us afterwards and he was delightful. Another excellent immigrant owned business to support in Minneapolis.

Spice & Tonic located in an unassuming historic building downtown. Its decor isn't anything…read morespecial, but the space itself is cozy and rustic. They were understaffed on a Tuesday weeknight, with one server doing the hosting and all of the serving--there were only a couple of young bussers/runners to help him out. The poor server seemed quite stressed, but he managed to provide STELLAR customer service to every table. He anticipated every need and even offered to give us extra rice to-go. I wish I had gotten his name, because I was so impressed by how well he managed all these duties and directed the younger, less experienced employees. The food was excellent and reasonably priced! Spice & Tonic should be on anyone's list for Indian food in the area.

The young host was running around looking very flustered, which made the vibe feel way more chaotic. Thankfully, it looked like the owner noticed and helped take over organizing the staff and getting guests arranged at tables. We noticed they have a really fun cafe setup called The Corner Café with its own window in the corner. It was closed when we were there, but it turns out they actually operate as a full-service artisan coffee shop during the morning and afternoon, serving Spyhouse coffee and pastries before shifting entirely to fine dining at night! For dinner, my husband ordered the sticky cauliflower as an appetizer and declared it "the best cauliflower 'chicken' bites he's ever had"--he also absolutely loved the white sauce it came with. He also got the mango yuzu drink which was super refreshing. For entrees, we ordered the coconut curry, which had a great flavor and wasn't overly sweet (which can sometimes happen when a kitchen overdoes the coconut milk). I ordered the Delhi butter chicken. The waiter mentioned that their spice scale is a "Minnesota spice" scale, so I felt safe upgrading to medium since I usually order mild. Flavor-wise, it had a bit too much tomato flavor for my personal preference, but it was still well prepared and the pieces of chicken had a lovely, smoky flavor.
