I'll start by saying this, I'm not casually into Indian food. I'm an Indian food aficionado. My business partner is Indian, and we are constantly trying new Indian restaurants. If you really know Indian food, you know there are levels to this. Most places serve what I lovingly call Campbell's Soup Tikka Masala. Super sweet, neon red, one note, wrong color, wrong consistency. Basically tomato soup with sugar and turmeric pretending to be a masala. It fills you up, but it doesn't make you pause and savor anything. Spice Grove Indian Cuisine is not that place. This is the real deal. The flavors are layered, balanced, and clearly cooked with intention. Not overly sweet, not dumbed down, just full of garlic, spice, depth, and that unmistakable "this was done right" feeling you get when Indian food is executed properly. We ordered a spread, saag, tikka masala, butter chicken, korma, vindaloo, garlic naan, and honestly there wasn't a weak dish on the table. Everything had the right color, the right texture, and the right punch of flavor. This is food you slow down for. I won't say this is the single best Indian food I've ever had, I reserve that for a few heavy hitters like Dishoom and Brigadiers in London and Chola in New York City. But if those are 10s, this is a very solid 8.5, and that is high praise. They're busy for a reason. You cannot go wrong here. If you love Indian food, or want to understand why people love Indian food, just go. You'll leave happy and probably already planning your next visit. read more

This place was really good. We went passed this place and saw it was so busy and we came in. The ambiance inside was cozy like a little bee hive. We got seated but no one was there to seat us but we were able to seat ourself. The food was so delicious and filled with flavors. The butter chicken with the garlic naan was so good and had a little kick to it. We also got their chicken biriyani which was good and spicy, you can see the masala within the rice. On the side we got their pani puri which was good and perfect for sharing and as an appetizer. The last dish we got was their szheuan noodles with chicken and it was spicy if you can handle the level of spice but filled with so much flavors or Indian and Chinese flavors. Definitely will be back to try more thing son the menu: read more

The food here was amazing. I ordered the 65 biryani chicken which is extremely spicy. My husband ordered the traditional biryani chicken, which was very delicious as well. Both dishes were amazing not to mention the garlic naan was so good. Taste homemade. I ordered takeout, when picking up my food, the people were super friendly! I love good customer service! Will be back again. read more

Great food! If you're not used to spice, beware. Don't show up here expecting to have mild toned down Indian food. This is very flavorful and there is heat in nearly every bite. Personally, I loved the Pani Puri and the masala dosa! My wife isn't much of a spice fan and even though they tried several times, we're not able to find a dish for her without spice. The staff was very kind and attentive. read more

Wow!!! I just recently moved to the area and am always looking for a good Indian restaurant, specifically Southern Indian and this is it! The ambiance is nice and feels modern, honestly doesn't feel like a typical Indian restaurant. We went on a Sunday and they have unlimited veg and non veg thali then so we tried the non veg one. We didn't even manage to go for seconds because there are so many dishes and it's all so good! Some of the standout dishes were the shrimp curry and bone in chicken. It came with a chicken appetizer as well, pictured below. The Vada was nice and fresh. The spice levels were perfect and honestly I'm glad they didn't tame it down (at least for the thali). So it's an authentic place with a great menu. We will definitely be back!!! read more

The food was very flavorful and came out fairly quickly. We both enjoyed our meals overall. The goat had a few tough pieces and was a little fatty, but good. It was a nice family atmosphere, although a little cold inside when we visited, so we opted to sit on the patio where there was a nice breeze. Our only hesitation was the pitcher water. I would definitely opt for bottled water next time. It did not taste good & upon further inspection we noticed particles floating in the water. After receiving our food, the service for the patio area dropped a bit and we ended up having to go ask for to go containers as no one came back out to check on us. read more

Holy moly this was THEEEEE BESTTTT Indian food I have ever had! And I've had alot in the past. But they're just not on the same level. We ordered their Chicken 65 biriyani and masala dosa and finished with the coconut gulab jamun. Everything we ordered was spiced to perfection! Not to mention the service was warm and welcoming! Needless to say I'll be going back and do whatever I have to do to keep them in business! 12/12 recommend! read more

Spice Grove Indian Cuisine - Chicken 65 Biryani - Indian Near Me - The Colony, Texas

Friendly welcome. While waiting for a friend- a young lady came by to bring menus. I asked about the chaat night that was featured for Friday. She notified me that was available- that was a bit sad. I also asked for water a couple of times and it took some time before it arrived. I know they are new and still working on a few things. Food was tasty but it would have been nice to adjust the spice level. Some of the flavors needed a little more pizzazz, the chicken tikka didn't have that tomato base taste and the chicken curry needed a little more coconut cream to blend the spices. Good start but needs some elevation. We have a good time. They were so friendly and helpful. Clean, and lovely restaurant. Overall nice. read more

The dishes here have that aura that someone's grandma or a family is making each of them. The unbelievable amount of flavors in each dish is an experience in itself. The serving sizes are nothing to scoff at, they are so large. The biryani was huge, just so flavorful and you could tell care was put into the dish. I believe the appetizer was Gobi, but, my memory may have failed me. It was very good and enough for two to share. A dessert of gulab jamun was exquisite, If I had any room left I'd have ordered more as one order isn't enough to share imo. The menu must have been four maybe five pages, there's just no way someone couldn't find something here. My only star removal is that the staff was able to explain or answer many questions. If you are knew to these dishes, the menu may be overwhelming and asking questions was difficult. If you're game to wing it where needed, give it a go! read more

The service was incredibly slow . We had to ask for water multiple times before it was brought to the table, which was frustrating and a bit surprising. Food is spicy. We had kids at our table. We really needed that water. They're definitely understaffed. While the food itself was decent - flavorful and well-prepared - the service definitely detracted from the overall experience. It's disappointing when good food is overshadowed by a lack of attention to customer needs. I hope they can address these service issues in the future, as the potential is there. read more

This is some of the best Indian food in the area! I always get the chicken 65 biryani and garlic/chili naan The masala dosa is also incredible here read more

My son and I stopped by this place for lunch. They are still in their soft opening period so everything wasn't totally set up, however, the dining area was clean. We decided to eat on the patio since the weather was very mild. The patio is large and can accommodate a large group, but it is a bit noisy due to the traffic on 121. I believe once it is fully set up, it will be a very beautiful patio. My favorite feature of the dining room is the handwashing sink. I love restaurants that have handwashing sinks outside of the bathroom, it's so practical! Seeing as though when I eat at an Indian restaurant I eat with my hands. On to the food, we ordered the 2 plain dosas, poori with chana masala, carrot halwa, vegetable biryani and chicken biryani, masala chai and a mango lassi. The dosas were delicious, a little on the softer side for me, but definitely delicious. The poori's were large and perfectly fried to a crispy texture and paired well with the chana masala, which was the best chana masala that I've had at any Indian restaurant. The carrot halwa was very tasty, not too sweet, not too oily, but just right. The masala chai is served piping hot and unsweetened. Overall we had a wonderful experience and will definitely return. I can wait to see how things are once they are fully up and running. read more

Curry and shrimp pakoda are my favorite from this restaurant. Generous portion and excellent service. Can't wait to try more from the menu. read more

Really delicious and flavorful food. Some of the foods that we tried included the masala dosa, Chana masala, tandori chicken. The shrimp byriani was my least favorite. All others were outstanding. I would def come back if im in the area. Service was ok, ambiance was better than most indian restaurants. read more

earlier today I posted a 5 star review. We went there about a month ago and LOVED it. Today's lunch was a disaster. 3 of us. Ordered around 12:30 I specifically said I wanted a dish with White Meat Chicken Breast. Waiter tells me what to get. My son - got food at 12:45. Ok, not great. by 1:00 no other food. Ask. 1:10 I get served. It's chicken drumsticks. I refuse it. It sits there. 1:20 after agitating and begging for the bill, someone else comes over and insists on making it right. My husband gets served. He likes the food but we are too upset to eat. Ask for the bill and to go containers. Nope. They refuse. They will bring me a meal. They insist 1:30 I get served. Tasted great but too angry to enjoy. By 1:45 we have asked for to go boxes and the check. Nope. They bring us complimentary dessert and some white creamy liquid. Didn't want. Finally - left the food on the table because clearly to go boxes aren't coming and just went to the cash register and begged to pay. Honestly expected to be comped the meal. Nope. So we paid. You lost a customer today. read more

If you're looking for authentic Indian cuisine, this is the location to visit. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was prompt and accurate. Overall, this spot is a great place for a family looking for a nice Indian dinner. Many options to choose from just know that Indian food is spicy even when they say it's mild, other than that, this is a winner and I will be back. read more

The restaurant was clean and casual. Our waitress was attentive. The food was incredible! My husband and I tried the plain naan, chicken tikka masala, and the paneer cashew butter curry. The tikka masala was the best I've had. The paneer cashew curry was delicious. Our friends enjoyed their food as well. Prices averaged around $15 per curry and $2 for plain naan. I am knocking 1 star off for shady tipping practices. They automatically added the tip to our bills without telling us. We had a party of 5. We only know about it because one of our friends received an email receipt immediately. Had the waitress told us about it, we would've been fine with it. It looks like they're trying to get double tipped. read more

Good appetizers , they cracked the mirchi bajji. Chestnut masala is also good . Some chicken pulav ( not remember the name ) is also good .

We had tikka masala and chicken vindaloo. Portions are very generous, to the point two could share. Garlic naan was very good. The samosa appetizer was good but could have used a little more time in the fryer. read more

Clean and open ambience inside the restaurant. Understaffed so service may be a bit slow, but all are very kind! Food was okay (coming from someone who has tried homemade Indian cuisine), chili chicken was a bit drier than expected and overcooked. Biryani quantity was worth the price for sure!!! They gave so much. It's not bad food overall. read more

Chicken Tikka tasted boarder-line sweet, had some veggies in it that don't really belong in Chicken tikka masala like bell peppers....thats a no! Saag paneer also tasted on the sweet side. My masala dosa was missing the potato filling... they only packaged the dosa crape + sauces My order was to go but the restaurant seemed nice and clean. But beyond that fairly disappointing experience given all the other reviews are mostly 5star, didn't add-up. read more

The food was made very quickly. The people who greeted me when I came to pick up my food were nice. The food was amazing!

I highly recommend all of these. We also got the gulab jamun for dessert, which was also excellent. read more
