It's time for our annual trip to Spokane for my wife's immersion and if you follow my reviews at all, you know that my job on vacation is to coordinate the food. After a recommendation from one of my wife's classmates, I took myself on a lunch date to Indicana, and I'm honestly convinced that Spokane is a foodie dream after this meal. I have been wanting to try Indicana for lunch all week, but they only serve lunch on specific days. I did a walk-in at lunch and did not need a reservation (however I cannot say the same for dinner, we went back this evening so that my wife could try the mango lassi and people were piling in). The restaurant is stunning with warm hues of earth tones and deep, rich dark blue that pulls it all together. The music is loud enough that you can hear it, but light enough that you can still hear yourself talk, which I appreciated. Every member of staff I encountered was incredibly kind and I think I ended up sitting next to the owner or a manager who was at the bar near my table - she was so sweet and had no problem jumping in to help when needed. The lunch menu and dinner menu differ, so it's important to note if you're interested in trying anything from my review. I ordered the Pork Vindaloo tacos with naan, tandoori slaw with a side of jeera rice and dal along with a Mango lassi. Everything, and I do mean everything was delicious.   Pork Vindaloo Tacos on Naan - 10/10 every single bite was flavorful. The naan had a crispy yet softness to it, the pork vindaloo created a juice that brought together all of the flavors and then I followed it up with a bite of tandoor slaw, and it was so good. The cheese did not overpower the meal and really sealed it all together. Jeera Rice and Dal - 8/10 I wanted a bit more flavor in the Dal, but with this being my first experience with Dal, I'm not sure how flavorful it should have been. Overall, it was still delicious and fresh. I found myself taking bites of it and the jeera rice between bites of the tacos. The entire meal was very filling, but not in an overly full kind of way. Mango Lassi - 11/10 and I mean it! You should know I mean it because I my wife and I came back later in the evening (as I mentioned above) to get more. It is velvety smooth with a hint of warmth after each sip. The taste is absolutely delicious and so refreshing. I can understand why Indicana is so busy, and the reservations are needed. This will definitely be added to our Spokane list of places to visit and recommend. read more

My husband and I recently went here for our 23 year anniversary. This was our first time here and we were excited to try their fusion. To start we booked a reservation so we could arrive during a time that worked for us. When we arrived at our reservation time we were instantly greeted by Jacob. He was friendly, warm, and really helpful with explaining the menu. The restaurant inside was intimate, but they shared they also had a patio. We had researched the menu before our reservation so we knew exactly what we wanted. We ordered the Pollo Asado, the Mango Chicken Enchiladas, and the Curry Rip and Dip for appetizer. To start, the Curry Rip and Dip was OUTSTANDING!!! The curry was rich, creamy, and had a hint of sweetness. The flaky flatbread parathas were were light, buttery, and paired well with the curry dip. I wish there was a dish that was bathed in this curry sauce. So good. The Pollo Asado was freshly grilled and came with a fresh corn salad and a bright cilantro sauce. The rice was fluffy and the lime brought everything to life! The Mango Enchiladas were saucy and filled with chicken. The cabbage slaw provides freshness and crunch, and the plate came with a generous helping. This was such a great experience overal. We cant wait to come back and try other items, but we will be sure to always order the Curry Rip and Dip! read more

Service: amazing! We tried out sitting on the patio tonight and enjoyed. From our host to our food runners to our waitress, the staff was kind and provided great service ! Cocktails: Great! Very strong, fairly unique menu Food: Mango enchiladas: I tried some of my friend's and I really enjoyed, I think if I went back I would order that! Pollo Asado: the rice was perfect, I wanted the chicken to maybe have a little more seasoning or a dash of salt but it was really really good! Cooked well. Corn was good. Curry rip and dip: dare I say just okay? I wanted to love, and I do love the concept but something didn't work for me personally. I think I was envisioning a much more smoother curry, and it's more chunkier. I ate it all but probably wouldn't order again. I loved the paratha! Three amigos: the queso stole the show! I especially enjoyed the pico and the guac personally and found the guac to be exactly what I was expecting and the pico to be a tasty twist on a favorite of mine. Overall: great! Really cool restaurant menu concept, some of the dishes I really loved and I left full and very pleased with my experience read more

Food and ambiance great for a date night. They could expand the menu, but what they do is excellent.

Indicana, voted Best New Restaurant by the Inlander for 2025, is a thoughtful Indian-Mexican fusion spot that manages to highlight both cuisines without letting one overpower the other. This teeters between a 4 and 5 for me, but didn't get to try enough to truly decide. We stopped in for happy hour while eating our way through Spokane and ordered three dishes: the Three Amigos, crispy cauliflower, and potato taquitos. The taquitos were our favorite -- crispy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned -- though the cauliflower was a close second. The tamarind pico from the Three Amigos added such a nice sweet-tart twist. The guac was my least favorite, a bit one-note compared to the punchy flavors elsewhere, but still fresh. I love that everything is clearly labeled for dietary restrictions, and though I skipped cocktails this visit (a bit alcoholed out!), the rotating margarita flavors definitely caught my eye... I'll be back for one. read more

The mango chicken enchiladas were delicious, and the El Corazon margarita was sublime! (I recommend with mezcal). Cute intimate place on the hip S Perry St. And, bartender Julie was totally cool, very sweet, and an absolute pro. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

This review was written by a 8 year old.My honest opinion was it was DELICIOUS!!!!The service was great.Some things that I got that were amazing are the kids potatoes,the chorizo tacos,and the trio of dips.Love this place it is amazing we will definitely come back cause it was our first time and we loved it.I would recommend going outside when it feels good,the ambiance is so natural and cute.The server we had was Fabian and he was kind.And he sat down with my family and talked us through the menu and recommended things.We liked everything but the chicken tiki masala nachos (see cheese pull picture).My dad even liked his spicy beet cocktail.I can't speak to that if it was good because I'm a kid. read more

It's easy to see why Indicana was voted top new restaurant this year: welcoming service , great drink options , interesting , delicious and different menu items. We had the curry "rip and dip " starter, with our excellent cocktails . I chose the Viceroy Old Fashioned served with one giant ice cube and my husband had a classic margarita without salt. The appetizer was spicy and complex which set us up for our entree of Salmon Rojo ( 8 oz portion) which we split. Enough for us but next time we will save room for the Tres Leches dessert which was recommended. I liked everything about the place - attentive servers , decent prices, nice patio , quiet music ---even gorgeous wallpaper in the restroom! read more

It's fun and different. The quality of the food is good. Preparation and presentation are solid. I developed a preference for a dish after 1 visit and then it was gone when I returned. I was a little disappointed. I don't have such strong remembrances of my last meal there but the ambiance and cocktails were very nice. It's not just Indian or Mexican. Definitely a fusion so I'd you like both cuisines but you're a little bored and looking for something different try Indicana read more

So delicious!! Came in for lunch and ordered the cauliflower burrito with curry sauce on top and it was very satisfying and tasty. Genius to blend Indian flavors with Mexican presentation, I WILL be using naan as taco shells in the future. Such friendly service as well. Highly recommend people to check out this new Spokane gem. read more

Food was absolutely amazing! I can see why they were so busy. If you plan on trying this place out I highly recommend you make a reservation or you will be waiting for a while to get in.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Great to have in Spokane. Wonderful food, service, and ambience. The only reason it's not a 5 star is that Spokane really needs local and ethically sourced food in restaurants. I'd happily argument my review if this changes read more

HUGE fan!!! I have now been to Indicana twice since they have opened and it has been great both times. The queso dip is by far my favorite thing on the menu. The steak is absolutely delicious and the chefs did such a wonderful job at creating such a unique and flavorful menu. The servers have been nothing but wonderful and the the vibe inside the restaurant is super fun. Great date night spot and they have so many fun drinks to try as well! read more

We've been wanting to try this newer place in the Perry District. The ambiance is chic, warm and inviting. We were lucky to find a nice table inside on a hot afternoon during the Thursday market, as it seems reservations are, at the very least, encouraged. Our server was pleasant. We enjoyed the food and found the flavor combinations unique and flavorful. Hope to return and check out the patio. read more

We arrived around 4:00 PM for an early dinner. Seated immediately, displacing a small staff meeting which they were gracious about. Split 3 small plates and 3 dinners between 4, just the right amount. The food was excellent and interesting. Will definitely return! read more

Absolutely incredible experience! This is my favorite restaurant I've been to in CDA and Spokane. Super fun flavors cooked perfectly in a beautifully decorated restaurant. I can't be more impressed really. Counting the days till I can come back. Thank y'all so much, keep up the excellent work!! read more

Delicious! Save room for the to-die-for tres leches cake. Unlike the traditional version, this one is not overly sweet, not overly milky and is perfectly chai spiced. read more

We were in Spokane for the weekend and after reviewing their menu, we had to stop by. The decor and artwork is stunning and they have a nice, shaded area outside to sit which was perfect for us after a long drive. We had a hard time deciding because everything looked so good. We shared the taquitos and it was amazing. I had the cauliflower bowel and my husband had one of their burritos. Both lunch portions were huge and wonderful. We had great service and we highly recommend going to this unique restaurant. read more

Excited to try this Mexican-Indian fusion. The Viceroy Old Fashion was incredibly small for the price, but delicious. The Jarritos Especial was a yummy drink as well. The Three Amigos appetizer was so fun! The queso and guacamole were especially tasty. I've never enjoyed guacamole as much as this...so fresh tasting with unusual spice! The mango enchiladas were delicious also. Two of us ordered the steak and batatas. The steak was overcooked and just ok. Only thing we didn't enjoy. Overall though very enjoyable evening. read more

Nice place. Great menu. We went for my birthday. They were very nice with good service and servers. Prices were what one would expect.

What a great place. The food is unique and so delicious! They have the best chai I have had in a long time. We had the three amigos and loved all of them. we also had the crispy cauliflower, which could've been crispier. But the flavor was amazing. We had the butternut squash soup, which is a - amazing! A flavor was Crable. After all of that we were full, but we had already ordered a main dish so we topped off the night with steak and batatas. The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned! This was a fantastic experience. I would recommend getting reservations before you go. Try ordering outside the box it's fun outside the box. read more

Really fun spot with a unique India-meets-Mexico concept. You can taste distinct elements from both cuisines without one overpowering the other. The food was tasty across the board, and the lassi yogurt was an absolutely delicious way to finish the meal. read more

Love the decors! Great cocktails! The foods were ok, not a lot of notes mostly hot peppers and salty! The service is ok. She have great sense of urgency but no attempt to make any connection with customers, hard to justify why we would go the extra miles to leave more then 18% tips. read more

Totally awesome. My partner and I both had salads, hers a wedge salad, mine a spring salad. We both appreciated how unique the salad dressings contributed to the overall experience. They've been open a year and have already been selected as best new restaurant in Spokane. Try it, you'll really like it read more

It's pretty good. Actually, if you change your expectations, it's really good. But as for a "New Mexican Cuisine/Indian" fusion kind of restaurant, it falls sadly short. We ordered the Pollo Asado and the Steak. The chicken was well cooked but rather bland for a restaurant that should be delivering food that is full of great spice and should be somewhat spicy. The chicken's side was a potato/spinach blend that had some earthy tones but otherwise underwhelming. The steak was really well cooked. They nailed it. The potatoes, like most things that came out, were underwhelming. They had so much potential. The story continued with the beans. They were good. Not great. When you think of Mexican or Indian food you think about flavor! We left wanting more. So it's good. The vibe is solid. My favorite part - and be prepared - the food comes out slowly but the servers were awesome. So like with the food, go in having realistic expectations about the timeline. You'll be here a while. Plan on ordering an app, having some good conversation, and some food that you won't complain about...it just might not have you coming back a second time. read more

HIGHLY highly recommend Indicana in Perry District. Its is a Mexican Indian fusion restaurant and everything was amazing. Sorry I didn't take pictures because I dont usually take pictures of food, but it was just that amazing that I needed to share my review. I went with a friend and we ordered the taquitos de papa chaat, the achiote marinated pollo asado, and the mango chicken enchiladas. Then there was a mess up in the kitchen so we ended up getting another order of the taquitos. Ok. The taquitos.... FULL DISCLOSURE. I cant get it out of my head. Its fried tortilla shell, the perfectly seasoned potatoes inside. The fresh tomatoes for a perfect combination between cooked and uncooked. Im full on addicted and im going back tonight to get another order bc Im addicted. (I hope the kitchen messes up again so I can get another order!! Jk!) For drinks I ordered the mango mojito and lychee martini. Both were great, but the lychee martini was absolutely refreshing. Then we fell for it even though we were stuffed and couldn't eat anymore-- we ordered dessert. We had the Lassi Panni Cotti and it was this curd dessert with peanuts... girrrrrrlllllll SOO GOOD. Spokane, dont skip this spot. This place needs to stay!!! Its perfect for a night out, catching up with friends, or date night. You can make reservations or sit at the bar, where it sits approximately 5 people. Cheers! read more

Since indicana is a restaurant of two spice filled cultures I expected a lot of heat. I was sadly disappointed, however the food was good. My daughter and I didn't have a reservation, but they sat us at the bar. We share an appetizer and a meal, the food was delicious and could have used more heat. read more

Very very delicious! All around great experience, great service and we got to meet one of the owners who was in eatting with his family. 10/10 would recommend read more

Delicious new restaurant in South Perry and the perfect addition to the neighborhood! I brought my mom here for lunch on a Saturday after some shopping and we were seated immediately. It smelled so good in the restaurant and the decor was bright and colorful. The fusion menu combining Indian and Mexican was genius and a great flavor combo. We started with the guacamole and chips and crispy cauliflower. Both were a must order (especially the chips which were 10/10). Then I had the Chana Masala bowl and my mom had the Chicken Tikka bowl - both were large portions and packed with flavor. The only thing I didn't love love was the margarita. It was okay but next time I will probably order something else. Will definitely be back soon! read more

What a wonderful place to enjoy a delicious meal. The outdoor seating is perfect for a relaxing evening. The food is excellent and so are the cocktails. The service was excellent as well. I cannot recommend this place more. read more

Well that was ridiculously good! Dropped in for Friday happy hour after hearing about indicana from a friend and was it was all-around great! Mashing up two cuisines/cultures from literally opposite sides of the globe... and it works so well! Of note tonight: the curry rip & dip, the three amigos (each component was just wow- smooth lime-y guacamole, sweet tamarind pico de gallo, gorgeous queso), the dishes, the space, the fantastic service crew. Heading back asap to work through more of the menu! read more

I ate there last week, had the pork vindaloo tacos , chips and guacamole and salsa. Delicious! Fresh ingredients, perfect temperature and seasoning was perfect! Wanted to go back to try the chicken tikka tacos but did not have time, I'll be back. The house made naan is divine The chef came to our table to greet us , what a treat! Clean, beautiful outdoor space and indoors is cozy as well. read more

Started off with the nachos and they were great. However, we got the naan tacos and paid $4 extra for lentils and rice. The tacos were ok. Would have been good if the naan bread was made fresh and the chicken wasn't so dry. The naan bread tasted like store bought and broke in half when I folded it in half. The lentils and rice had zero flavor. Thankfully the waitress removed the extra cost of them since we did not eat them. Staff was great, food was just ok. I was hoping for more. read more

We made a reservation a week prior and were very excited to check out this restaurant. We arrived on time for our reservation and were seated right by the door (it was 35 degrees and rainy and the door was being held open by people coming in). I asked our host to accommodate a seat change as there were a couple other 2 tops open as well as the entire bar top. The host agreed that it was cold where we were seated but declined request to change our table. The host continued to seat people that arrived after us in the empty tables, while the bar remained unoccupied. I approached the host again asking for a seat anywhere else and they did not want to accommodate. We opted to leave the restaurant and enjoyed a meal somewhere we were able to take our coats off. The tables are by the door are all 2 tops, so I would recommend coming with at least 4 people. read more
