Tried Guras spice house yesterday for the first time and was actually very pleasantly surprised! My husband drives past here often for work so we decided to give it a try to see if it might be a good takeout place in the future. Ambiance 2/5: a little weird (game machines on the left of entryway when you come in, a "good vibes" neon sign with its lights off, doors a little run down) but the food is very delicious! And inexpensive (eg. a large serving of onion naan for ~$3)! The prices were so reasonable we ended up ordering way too much food. I would come back. It's its own building with a parking lot in front with plenty of spaces to park. Service: only one waitress who was manning both the register and serving all the tables. Service was a little slower since she was running everything but she was very friendly and working hard so we didn't mind. It seemed to be authentic as a lot of the other customers dining in were speaking Nepali! Food wise: My husband ordered the papadum (this is the dried lentil chips you sometimes see as appetizers at other restaurants--it it was served here with tamarind and I think mint chutney?). I'm not really a fan of papadum in general, but the sauces here were good. If you like it at other places you probably will like it here. I think this could probably be skipped (order something else as everything else we tried was quite good). House Muldani Soup: a delicious lentil soup. We were offered multiple spice options -- no, mild, medium, hot, or super hot. We picked mild which was a little too spicy for us bc it turns out we are still wimps to spice but still delicious. 4/5 Next we had the chicken biryani in mild spice level-- the chicken thigh meat was very tender and the rice well spiced. Large portions! It fed us both until we were stuffed and I'm eating it again today as leftovers -- still pretty good. It also came with cucumber raita (cucumbers in yogurt sauce) which was yummy as well and helped bring down the heat level and balance everything. 4/5 But the amazing standouts that really made Guras spice house a 5/5 overall was the incredible onion naan and malai kofta. They were DELICIOUS. This is the best naan I've ever had and it came in as a large flat bread cut into 4 quadrants -- with perfect texture and the onion flavor bursting forth. It tastes AMAZING when dipped into the malai kofta sauce -- which mind you was perfectly dreamy and creamy with a nice balance of tomato flavor. The homemade paneer dumplings were also so soft with a great texture, pairing perfectly with the sauce. Value: 5/5 - The total came out to be $42 or so for all this food and we were stuffed with plenty of leftovers. In summary, get the malai kofta and onion naan!! Also looking forward to trying the mango lassi in the future! (They also have rose water lassi which looked interesting as well) read more

This place was so good. If I lived in Harrisburg, I would definitely come here more often. We got the Nepali momos and Chicken Tikka Masala from this restaurant. At first, we were disappointed by the momos because the photos showed them as soup dumplings (similar in style to Chinese xiaolongbaos), so we were expecting them to be steamed and soupy inside, but it was actually just fried. However, it tasted really good with the sauce and spices they added! I would recommend it. The chicken tikka masala was also really rich in flavor and the curry was delicious. The interior had cool vibes and music videos playing and the service was great. read more

Their butter chicken was so delicious!!! The service was amazing and i loved the the lamb meat.

Working alone canvassing for the 2024 elections. Long day. I want a meal the bed. Yelp suggests Guras, and it's in the area where I am. I love Indian food, so I head out. Upon entering it's a bit off. Young men clustered around video games in one corner. Indian music videos with sound cranked up. Some super fun. I noticed today a big Nepalese community here, and Guras has both Indian and Nepalese food. I choose fish curry (hot slice level!), garlic naan, and a Taj Mahal beer. That turned out to be a large bottle which was great! I use the restroom upon entering, it's not that clean and there are no paper towels, and the urinals have the old fashioned flush twist handles. Not inspiring confidence. Sweet server, she suggested the fish curry. Attentive, efficient. The food turned out to be excellent! So tasty, challenging slice level which I like , clears out my sinuses! My scores: location 4, atmosphere 3, service 5, food 5, value 4, for an overall score of 4. read more

Honestly nothing special. Service was odd and food was ok. Could have used more flavor. Ordered the korma and chicken tikka. Samosas were the best thing we tried. read more

Very clean and well decorated. Full bar with $12 mixed drinks. Tried butter chicken, naan, chicken noodles and an appetizer called chicken Sakwa. The wait staff were friendly and attentive. read more

Go! I tried the mixed grill which was absolutely amazing. The flavors are out of this world and the meat is tender. It's a good mix of their tandoori and kababs. I also tried the chicken noodles which were great as well! So much flavor and the topping of cilantro, tiny onions, and lime gave it another level of freshness. I've had their butter chicken before with garlic and cheese naan and is also super tasty! Absolutely recommend!!! read more

Excellent service! Delicious food. I can't wait to do it again! No complaints, everything was wonderful. Nice ambiance. Great value.

Horrible service! Got seated and sat for 17minutes with not one person coming to take our order. We got up to leave and then someone starts yelling don't leave, we take your order now. Was actually ready to walk after 10 minutes but wanted to see how long it would be and after 17 minutes we had enough! read more

Very good food! Admittedly I've only ever gotten take out from Guras so I'm not sure on the dine-in experience, but it looks nice inside when I run in to grab my food! read more

The food here is so flavorful, they have many well-marked vegan options on the menu (thank you for that!!) and the service is very friendly. I also love that they are open later than most restaurants in the area because my wife and I work until late. My wife was unhappy before we got here and she left with a big smile on her face, and she has very high standards for food. We will definitely be back!! read more

Food is absolutely very delicious but table waiting is very very poor. Had to ask utensil, napkin, water at least 3 times. That's really disappointing for me esp, when you have spicy food. Loud music was unnecessary. Told them no ice on my drink but they still had it. The setup was nice and clean. Food is really good. Loved it. read more

This place rocks. I always get what they call Chicken Noodle, but it is really the Nepalese dish Chick Chow Mein. I asked for higher spice but it still came out as mild. It would also be nice if they served it with lime or lemon. The naan is great too. Make sure to get the chicken chili momo. read more
