    Great food! Delivery(Door Dash) was fast and efficient. Garlic naan was excellent! The Butter Chicken was great - a bit smaller than I remember, though. Sign of the times, I guess Chicken Tandori and Veggie Korma were very good. More broccoli than remembered and missing potatoes and carrots from the Korma.

    Saag Paneer lunch special
    Tina S.

    I visited Spice Indian very recently and was wowed by the food, service, and presentation. Additionally, I was SO delighted to see dosas on the specials menu. I noticed that, while I was eating in, two other decent tables to me ordered dosas also. I must say those patrons have great taste and I am very thankful dosas were available :) I ordered a mysore masala dosa and it was very delectable. The spice level was great, the potato filling was just right and the sambar and chutney accompaniments were excellent. My dining companion ordered a palak paneer lunch special, as we dined during the lunch hour. Despite being moderately busy, the service from Libin was on point, accommodating, and efficient. Our water glasses were never empty and our food was delivered hot. I also had hot green tea which was served in an individual porcelain pot that is placed at the table so you have more than a single serving. It was my first time trying dessert beyond the very tasty rice pudding that is included with the lunch special and I was not disappointed. The cardamom date cake had awesome texture and wasn't sickeningly sweet even with the poured edition of the accompanying toffee sauce. It was really excellent and I look forward to having again. This resturant is clean and charming, located within a strip mall and there is plentiful parking adjacent. If I could make a suggestion it would be to have dosa on the regular menu all the time! I understand that it's not the most uncomplicated food item to make however they are made so deliciously at Spice Indian Cuisine and currently the only restaurant in the area that serves them! Thank you, Spice Indian! I will definitely return again and again!

    Goat vindaloo

    Indian food done right !! It was a long day at the beach and your boy was feeling Indian, fortunately spices was right around the corner. Let's talk Vindaloo goat - Medium spice is actually accurate , some places don't put enough spice. Extremely aromatic and the goat was done very well. Garlic naan - phenomenal, the garlic pungency was at its peak , just as it should be. Mixed chicken platter - perfectly cooked chicken breast, and the tikka sauce that came with it was for dunking the chicken. It was superb and I was very satisfied. Overall experience was awesome, would come again

    I stopped by to see if they offered a buffet but was told they have a combo option during their lunch times. No problem. I love Indian food and sometimes if a place offers a buffet you can really try different things to see what you can order for take out or dine in. The staff seemed nice and I spoke to a couple leaving and they really enjoyed their meal. Indian food and be a hit or miss, but this place seems like it will be a winner. I will definitely be back to give them a try for lunch.

    It's real. This is AUTHENTIC curries (Indian food) and you can get as light (saag) or as spicy (tikka masala) as you like. And yes the naan is good! The staff were very helpful in recommendations for my American husband. The prices are a little steep for Indian food, but this is Sarasota, so they've got to cover rent, LOL. For my Brit expats, it's better than Brick Lane.

    February 28, 2025 - Two for dinner before FST show. No reservations which sometimes makes us nervous. We had a backup plan in case overcrowded. Looking for Thai or Indian food near downtown Sarasota for the theater. Found Spice Indian Cuisine. WHO KNEW it was related to Tikki Indian in Venice??? When we recognized TWO of the waiters here at Spice Indian - well than WE DID? Got the cauliflower app - Gobi Manchuria and my wife got the Tandoori chicken. I went with the Aloo Gobi. These were all awesome dishes and all cooked and presented wonderfully. Welcomin and service were impecable and friendly. A Great experience.

    I have to say if you like Indian food this would be the restaurant for you. I did a vacay in Mumbai India and I compare this food to that which they are not cooking for the American palate the cooking for the palate for people who love Indian food. I asked for Indian hot and I got it oh boy did I get it but the thing is you could not taste the heat you could just feel it and all the exotic flavors of Indian food were not Disturbed. The service was impeccable I have to say they don't just serve a section but they serve every table we had four people come and check on us through the night. Yeah I'm Beyonce was great I thought it didn't pack the place full of chairs and tables to try and get as many people in there as they could at one time so you do have space to walk and move your chair and know that you're not going to bump somebody if you move your chair back. For me this is a go-to place for Indian food lovers I'm going to give this six stars out of five they greeted us on the way in they greeted us on the way out and in between that they did take care of us and they're very nice people not that I thought that they wouldn't be but they are just nice good to see and have in this day and age. Stop being a cowboy get your ass out there and get yourself some Indian food it's healthy it's tasty it's beautiful presentation of the food and the colors are just vibrant and beautiful it's like art and it does leave you satisfied taste buds are tantalized your mind's blown and your lips taste better than it did before you walked in there. We will definitely go back there and try to complete the entire menu and it's not cuz we're greedy it's because the food is actually really slap you momma or somebody's momma damn good so put your eyebrows down. If you haven't noticed I do recommend this place

    Came here for dinner on a Saturday night, and had a really pleasant time. The service was great and friendly. For the two of us, we ordered samosas, and a cauliflower appetizer dish, as well as a curry dish. We were really pleasantly surprised by the portion sizes; I had never been to an Indian restaurant that served so much rice before! The restaurant is fairly spacious inside, and there's a mixture of booths as well as regular tables. It was pretty busy when we came, but thankfully, we did not have a wait for a table for the two of us. This was my first time trying Indian food in Sarasota, and it did not disappoint.

    Outstanding experience! From outside right away I noticed the restaurant is well lit, full of people and inviting. Massive bar area not being used as a bar and staff stands behind it. Confusing but quickly solved when warmly greeted and seated. Servers work as a team, friendly and respectful. Menu has plenty of options and each dish is clearly explained. Loved this for I ventured and tried dishes I have never seen at other Indian restaurants. Server even explained and made suggestions, which I totally followed. Important to note: You are asked how you want your dish, Mild, Medium, or Hot Spices! They actually listen and we throughly enjoyed this meal. There is a beer and wine menu. The desserts, like the dishes and sauces are all home made too. Take out is steady which was surprising since they have only been open a couple of weeks. Plenty of parking in this plaza. Tables and booth allow for small and big groups. Highly recommend!

    Sarasota finally has an excellent Indian restaurant! Enter and you will find attentive service. Dine and you will enjoy the wonderful combination of flavors so beautifully presented. Finally you will be amazed at the value for a 5* meal. Can't wait to try their other restaurants.

    Great beer

    Super nice people here! The style of Indian food here is a little different than im used to eating but it was great nonetheless! Somosas and naan and curry with a big beer. Cant go wrong!

But if anyone wanna have the food just ask the staff what the stuff in the pictures are and they are able to point you in the right direction. The meals we got Butter chicken which was pretty amazing Lamb korma which is my favorite of all time and it hit the spot as expected. Our friend had this large potatoes pancake that It was ok. I could go without it but it was massive and super cool for the Fran pics They also had a lamb kebab that was our least favorite dish. We had everything family style and they kept the rice coming, and we appreciated that. When the dessert came we ordered this carrot thing and it was BAD! It was warm and salty and had some ice cream on top but the ice cream was not good either. Our waiter was so gracious and took it out of the bill and replaced it with better choices. Shout out to ASHWIN he is a great waiter and we will look for him when we go back. Cause we loved the spot and will go back for sure. The food was great, the atmosphere was impeccable and overall the vibes were great. This spot is our new go to when we want to get some Indian cuisine with an elevated feel. Super recommended!!

I swear they're adding something addictive in their food because I always plan my next trip to Roti WHILE eating my current meal. The restaurant is cute. They've done a great job renovating the place. It's quite cozy with a combination of booths and tables. They have a buffet for lunch, so I plan to make that my next visit. I was shocked how busy it was. Their to-go orders are non-stop. Even though there were few patrons dining in, the rotation of online order pick ups was unbelievable. This is why the kitchen was fully staffed and the servers were widdled down to one. Don't go in there and expect stellar service. The waiter answers phones, runs food, and takes orders. He's a real life Superman, but he has split focus. Because the kitchen is so fast, you don't have time to feel neglected. Overall, I'm still a super fan. I'll probably stick to takeout, but it's my go-to spot while in Riverview. Highly recommend you give it a go.

The waiter was getting antsy standing near us. It completely ruined our dining experience. When we did leave a short time later there were a few open tables available and nobody waiting so there was no need to rush us out. Seems to me this waiter was overly eager to seat more customers in his own station to make more tip money for himself. Really not a hospitable thing to do to your customers. Was very rude of him and left really bad taste after our pleasant meal. Meanwhile the bathroom needed a clean up and the trash can was overflowing so maybe more attention is needed in that department instead of harassing paying guests.
