There was 1 raitha for 3 portions of biryani which was a complete letdown. No salan was provided. The curry dishes were better but nothing to rave about. The pricing did not do justice to the quality and flavors of the food. Not a great option and don't think I'll be ordering from this restaurant again.

Southern Spice is a solid 4 star Indian restaurant in Las Colinas, which is full of similar…read moreoptions, due primarily to great value. I haven't had vada pav sliders before but the filling is kind of like fried samosa filling without the dough. It's good. The serving size of the biryani was very impressive. You can see from the photo that they fill the container and then add another mound of rice on top of that - basically 2 servings (we took one home). And they didn't skimp on the chicken either! The chicken is cooked perfectly, the sauces are a great complement and this is an excellent dish. The Lunch Thali gives you a lot of bang for your buck and mine included ~5 pieces of fish fry, about the same amount of veg pakora, yogurt dip, chicken curry with rice, 2 different soups, a naan/tortilla thing, and a carrot dessert (like a halwa). All had good flavor and the soups have a nice spicy kick to them. However, since all the dishes for the thali come off the lunch line (ie all premade), the tortilla, fish and pakoras had been sitting out for awhile and not too hot. Had they come out fresh from the fryer, I might have given this experience 5 stars. As it stands, I'll probably be back for lunch anyways - and the thali is available 7 days a week!

The restaurant itself is nice, the vibe is good and it is clean…read moreI only review chicken tikka masalas and butter chicken, and this restaurant is NOT the place to go for either. The flavor is off, as they seem to use coconut milk or something sweet which makes the gravy be as thin as water with a sweet flavor profile, which is just not for me. I would rate the Chicken Tikka Masala I had as a 2.5/10, which would be vastly improved by a thicker gravy.

Delicious casual spot for South Indian parottas and rotis…read more Our group of 6 ordered family style, with one parotta each. The food arrived quickly, and we found everything delicious--can't speak to authenticity, though! \\ chicken 65 - the chicken was delightfully crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside - very flavorful and not too spicy \\ cauliflower manchurian - didn't know cauliflower could be this texture! also crispy and a little chewy on the outside, soft and juicy on the inside - the manchurian sauce was a little tangy, a little spicy \\ mutton biriyani - easily two servings and was plenty for our group with the other dishes, too - fragrant rice with punchy spices and warm lamb that wasn't too gamey \\ mutton curry with parotta - this was my favorite curry--a little spicy, very savory - the parotta were so fresh and crispy and soft! i could eat just parotta but it carried the curry so well too \\ butter chicken with parotta - a little sweet and pretty spicy - doesn't look like a big dish but a little goes a long way \\ mango lassi - sweet, creamy - the perfect counter to the spicy curries The menu says they don't accept tip, and the service was fantastic regardless. There's plenty of parking nearby. A little pricey but would love to visit again, maybe for the weekend thali!

However, the depth of flavor is a bit lacking due to the chicken cubes not having that signature char or tandoori flavor (in my opinion).

If you're looking for an Indian spot or even something to go, I recommend this place!

The food was decent, the restaurant was old and really needs to be renovated. The staff were…read morepleasant, but this appears to be more of a takeout type restaurant. I wouldn't recommend eating inside just because it's not a really nicely decorated restaurant. It's old nevertheless the food was decent and I really enjoyed the vegetable rice. However, we asked for a cup of ice to drink with our soda and they say that they did not have any ice. The price of the food is decent for a family of three we spent 60 bucks which is about $20 a person.

Whilst in town for work I find myself rotating Indian restaurants in the area, there are plenty to…read morepick from folks, and Pista House has become an enjoyable addition to the rotation. Counter service(ish) walk in and order at the counter. You'll receive a number/table tent, grab your needed plates/cutlery/et al and you can go have a seat. When your item(s) are ready they will bring them over to you. Whilst they have an pretty expansive menu, I find myself going to the same thing time and time again: Palak Paneer, Naan (of some kind), and samosas. The wait time is typically rather short and the food comes out H O T! Like numerous times I've burned my tongue diving in so patience will take you far in overall enjoyment of your meal and overall I've had consistency on quality and serving portions I've received. Now when it comes to service, don't expect much-no frills, short interaction with minimal service. This is not a complaint, just an observation to help temper your expectations. But if you're looking for a tasty Indian dinner you can rely on, look no further that Pista House.
