    Came here on a whim with a friend as we were doing a food crawl in Flatbush/Kensington. We didn't…read moreeven know this place existed, but after leaving the first spot, bumping into this one and seeing the review about the "biggest masala dosa", we had to try it. Spoiler, we never made it to any of the other locations because we were so full. Jalsa provide fare from all over India and makes paneer in house. They have plenty of seating and can take care of large catering parties. As is customary, they have a Sunday lunch buffet. We came on a rainy Saturday afternoons and there weren't many patrons dining. We went with the masala chai, mango lassi, lamb kati roll, and a ghee masala dosa with gun powder, upon recommendation. -The masala chai was perfectly blended, with sugar on the side to sweeten to one's liking. -The mango lassi was really good, but a bit thicker than I'd like; good tartness. -Lamb kati roll was really good, larger than expected. The flavours were well balanced and the paratha had a good flake to it. There was A LOT of lamb inside. -The ghee masala dosa was the shining star; it must have been 2.5, if not 3 feet long. The edges were super crispy like a chip, and the masala potato pilling was delicious If I could do it all over again, I'd only eat here and not eat ahead of time, since this was enough food to fill a party of two (maybe add in a samosa or two). I'll definitely be coming back to try more fare.

    The best samosas! Lots of really delicious vegan options. Portions could be bigger for what they…read morecharge, but great food. I hear they may be opening up a backyard option as well, which would be thrilling.

    Be prepared to feel like you've been transported back to Pakistan, because that's exactly what this…read moreplace delivers. The food is some of the most authentic Pakistani cuisine I've had anywhere in New York, from the naan to the saag. If you're missing home, this restaurant is truly an experience. Don't get me wrong--the food is rich, generously cooked with oil, and probably not the healthiest option, but that's part of what makes Pakistani food so comforting and authentic. There's plenty of seating, making it a great spot to visit with family. There's almost always a line, but that's a good sign and a testament to how great the food is. The service is solid--they make sure you get what you need. The ambience is simple and functional, especially for a packed restaurant, but the focus here is clearly on the food. If you're craving real Pakistani flavors, this place is worth the visit.

    This place was filthy, the service was terrible, and the staff appeared completely untrained and…read moreunprofessional. I dont know how they have rating of "A" posted . The bathrooms were extremely dirty, with visible mold, damaged fixtures, and even poop marks left on the toilet bowl. Nobody seated us when we arrived. We were left trying to figure out where to sit because every table seemed to have an issue. One table had a shopping bag on it, chairs at another table were disorganized, and another table had not been cleaned after the previous customers had eaten. The service was just as disappointing. The person who took our order asked us three times what we had ordered--even though she had written the order down. She would serve one thing and ask again what was left now . All the food was practivalled dumped. Flies were flying around and actually landing on my food. The food itself was unacceptable. The aloo tikki appeared spoiled--the potato was sticky and had an acidic taste. When I complained, the server simply responded, "Hmm," and did nothing to address the issue. Then we found a human hair fried directly into the fish fry. Again, the server seemed completely unbothered and did nothing to resolve the situation. At that point, we stopped eating and asked for the bill. Despite the poor experience, the server reminded us to leave a tip. We did leave one, but I explained that tipping is meant to reflect good service and that we were very unhappy with the service we received. Her response was simply, "Koi nahi." We were still charged the full price, along with the tip and an additional 3% credit-card fee. Overall, the combination of the extremely dirty conditions, poor service, spoiled food, a hair fried into the fish, flies landing on the food, and the complete lack of concern when we complained made this a very disappointing experience. An absolute Dumpster .. cant imagine how dirty the kitchen after seeing the bathtoom

We have always ordered take out but on a whim we decided to dine in and we were not let down at all! We ordered samosas, naan , chicken vindaloo with rice and magatalani soup and all of it was delicious and plentiful! I highly recommend eating here if you want authentic Indian cuisine!

    I am writing this review still fuming from an awful experience with two women working tonight…read more(10/25). In short, we ordered chicken tikka masala and garlic naan through Uber Eats but then received the entirely wrong order an hour later. We got the got the issue corrected with Uber Eats, and I called the restaurant to ask that they remake our order for which we would pick it up and pay for it in person. The main woman who was assisting asked me where the incorrect order was as she claimed it is a requirement that we bring the wrong order back to the restaurant to be issued a full refund (?). I said I was not made aware that we had to do this, and furthermore, I know that based on hygienic food practices, they should be trashing any food that goes to the wrong customers... especially since the food has now changed hands multiple times with a delivery driver and being in our home... She insisted that this was not true and that the food could be used to feed their employees, which may be the case, but again, this was not clear and I am skeptical of any restaurant who accepts back food that has been out of their sight for nearly 2 hours at that point. She and the other woman continued arguing with me on this - at one point insisting they will send their delivery driver back with me to pick up the food?! Absolutely not. I was feeling incredibly harassed at this point - and honestly between being hungry and pregnant, I communicated this and that this situation was stressful, but they were continuing to argue with me. The second woman started to dismiss me, even. I asked my husband to come in and take care of the bill because I had to remove myself from that situation, and I could see him through the window continuing to be berated by the main woman for her assumption that we would be trashing the food that was incorrectly delivered. (I never stated this, I did state that I am aware that restaurants have to throw this food out.) He confirmed that she was being just as argumentative with him. This is such a shame because Indian Spice was such a wonderful part of our experience when we last lived in Brooklyn, and based on this, I would never order from here again.
