Denver is not known for its Indian food, and yet there are several places I would return to over this. Restaurant itself seems nice and clean, it's off Colfax with minimal associated parking, may have to park some blocks away as the streets can get pretty full Staff were pleasant, however it's the food that was so lacking. Got a spinach paneer and lamb curry to go, both were really lacking in flavor. Their mango lassi was very watered down and served with ice, not great bang for buck. Perhaps it was an off day or they do better with other dishes but I'm not sure I would return here. read more

We always have a wonderful time here but we met Karma the bartender today and she is amazing. She answered all of the questions we had, made the most bomb ass spicy margarita for my mother. Her personal recipe. My mom can't walk very well and she made sure she was ok getting onto the Hightops, i mean just above and beyond!!!! We went on a Sunday so please look out for her! So much love. read more

I have ordered delivery from Spice Room countless times, and it's always been good. I finally dined in person, and was not disappointed. Everything was delicious and flavorful. There are lots of options on the menu, and I particularly appreciate the ability to make most dishes dairy-free. I love their lamb entrees (curry and Rogan Josh especially) and the Chicken 65, but everything is good. If you're going dairy-free, I will admit the chicken tikka masala isn't quite the same without the cream. The coconut flavor really comes through and it changes the dish. It's not bad though. The kormas come out really well dairy-free! Service was prompt and friendly. Clean interior and bathrooms. I was also able to find parking. read more

Spice Room - Sweet Dates Roti & Garlic Naan Chicken Tikka Masala Lamb Curry Channa Masala Saag Paneer - Indian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

It's not as good as other Indian places because of the flavor of the food. There were a lot of seeds and taste of black licorice/fennel in the samosa. I've had many samosas in my life and one never tasted like this, in a not preferred way. The samosa dough seemed under cooked, as well. The mutter paneer was oddly sweet. Never had that dish taste sweet before. The chicken tikka masala was good. The naan was ok, we got cheesy garlic. It was flat though and didn't have pockets of air like I'm used to seeing with naan. Def had the cheese in it but the garlic I didn't see or taste. The house white wine was nice and cheap! This place isn't better IMO than other spots. read more

I have been on an Indian food kick lately and this place was fantastic! I got it for carry out and everyone was so friendly with a very casual vibe. The chicken tikka was delicious and so was the garlic naan. However, the chicken vindaloo wings were OUTSTANDING! I enjoyed that dish so much and everyone needs to get it. read more

Spice Room - Indian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

What a disappointment. I had high hopes for the restaurant given the high ratings. But the food was so bland. There was a lack of flavor in the chicken tikka malasa and chicken biryani. Ordered medium spicy but not spicy at all. The basmati rice was very dry like it was overcooked. Had to drink a sip of water after every bite. The garlic naan was mediocre. It wasn't fluffy soft. It was flat. The samosa was decent. It has heavily filled inside. The service was also very poor. No one was at the host/hostess desk so had to wait to be seated and it wasn't even busy. We were the only table. No water refills. When trying to get the bill, had to ask several times. read more

Love love love spice room. It's a great place for allergies - everything is labeled and completely customized. I cannot speak to the in house experience but the service for take out is great! Vindaloo is my absolute favorite but out of town guests have loved the classic tikka masala and butter chicken. read more

Very good food. We order the masala onion bloom and it was 10/10 would order that again. The green beans and aloo was very good as well. Medium heat was good heat to flavor ratio. We also order the chicken madrass in medium heat which was great paired with cheesy garlic naan. Our service was great our glasses of water were never not full and they were very quick with everything. read more

The reviews and rating are on point. Came here to try a new flavors. The parking is limited for the size of the restaurant, but there's additional street parking. The service was very good and attentive even during busy dinner time. We even got a nice Yelp discount for this location only. We order the Cucumber Salad, which I thought would be in yogurt, which was not, but definitely delicious and a great start to our meal. We also ordered our go to dishes, Lamb Saag and Chicken Tikka Masala, both full of flavor. I ordered the Masala with medium spice, which was perfect for my palate, not too spicy and recommended for the most that don't like sweating while eating. Both were creamy as well. The interior decor is just fine, typical for an Indian restaurant. Overall a place I would strongly recommend. read more

Spice Room - Perfect chicken malabar and one of my fav chicken 555 - Indian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Food: Flavorful and good amounts too, there's so much on their menu we will definitely be back to try more. Between two people we shared the pakora, rogan josh and a garlic naan which was more than enough. Each entree also comes with a side of basmati rice. Parking: very small lot and was quite busy with lots of people stopping by to pick-up takeout orders. You are probably better off finding parking on a side street. Service: One star off because service was quite slow. We were seated shortly after 6 PM on a Friday night. We didn't get appetizer on the table until 6:50 PM and main course at 7:00 PM. read more

This is the best Indian food I've had in my life, located in the old Annies location. Their mango lassi was next level, and the shrimp korma was wonderful. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

Live this spot for authentic Indian food! Eating in person is a little chaotic because it's so busy but the food is always good and consistent with quality. There's always a line, which to me means they've figured something out. read more

We have been fans of Spice Room since their opening week in the Highlands and are so happy they are open near our Cap Hill house. Hands down the best Indian in town. Our two faves are butter chicken and tandoori tikka with a side of yummy naan. The owners are the nicest people and truly care to provide a great dining experience to their customers. I am so happy to see their business expanding! Perfect, cozy spot with parking and nice window seats. A true gem. Every single thing they prepare is terrific. read more

If you love authentic Indian food, this is your place. The menu is huge. They have everything from street food to every type of curry you could imagine to naan pizza and so much more! We came in during the dinner rush without a reservation (silly us). I highly recommend making a reservation. They sat us at the bar which isn't always my first choice if I'm on a date with my husband, but honestly it wasn't bad at all! The bartender was attentive but not overbearing and we had such a lovely time. We ordered the mo-mo's because, well, you have to. And we also ordered the Tandoori chicken (bone in) with a side of cheesy naan. The chicken was almost crispy on the outside (not fried) but tender and juicy on the inside. And the flavor was . The mo-mo were packed full of veggies and meat and then fried to perfection. And the naan? Fresh, hot, and the perfect scooping mechanism to get all of that goodness into my mouth. We love curry so we'll have to return to try it. I recommend getting a few dishes and sharing. The parking lot is rough (it's just very small) but there's street parking on St. Paul or even Colfax. I didn't get any photos because it was pretty dark in there, but the food was just as beautiful as it was delicious! read more

All you need to know about this restaurant is that once a year I fly to Denver from Florida (2000 miles) just to eat here. Apart from that I recommend the chicken malai kebab starter. But everything is outstanding. read more

Very cute spot on Colfax with delicious food & drinks. Lychee lime fizz is so good. Great service, too.

To go order food exactly as ordered. Food delicious as usual. Garlic naan, veg samosas, med chicken tandoori with bone. Everyone is very friendly. And professional. read more

Went there for dinner and we're able to get seats right away. You can smell all the spices right when u walk in. There's a lot of seating so I doubt there's ever. The service is really good with multiple waiters waiting on you and they're very attentive. I ordered the masala chai tea, which was very tasty, a little spicier than normal chai tea. We ordered parathas, samosa chaat and chicken shamenshah to share. They have a very expansive menu with traditional Indian dishes plus select chef specials that i don't usually see in Indian restaurants so we both wanted to try different dishes. The whole meal was very tasty and prices weren't bad. It's a great Indian restaurant to visit. read more

Oh no, I can't decide! Do I like this Spice Room more or the other one? They're both amazing and some of my favorite restaurants in Denver. I came here with a friend, ordered Biryani and the Mango Lassi cocktail. Everything was so high quality and flavorful. Normally I get the Rogan Josh but decided to try something new. The gamble totally paid off. Overall, the Colfax Spice Room has a more modern and swanky vibe. I can't wait to come here again in the near future... as in, I literally just texted my partner to see if he wants to go tomorrow. That's how easily I can crave Spice Room. Parking is typically busy on Colfax (there IS a small lot for the restaurant) but you'll always find a spot with some patience. read more

I eat Indian food quite often. I wanted to try this place for a while. I live downtown so I was excited to add a new fabulous restaurant to my list. parking lot was I just mew this was the place . However, it was so TERRIBLE!! . I had to send my food back, which that is something I don't do. I ordered the chicken tiki marsala chicken soup & garlic Naan ( dry & barely any Garlic) such a disappointed. . I let them know I would pay for my drinks They also told me I could take the food to give to a homeless person after I tipped very well because I thought that they were really kind when technically the tip should've been $4.00 for my glass of wine & beer I ordered to go with my dinner. After paying They snatched the food off the table & proceeded to be rude so therefore I will NEVER go back I considered going back at a later date, to try something else i'm bringing my husband and my other daughter this time this restaurant is off my list it's unfortunate my family & eat out 2-3 times a week. I'll make the drive to Southlands to go to MONSOON. read more

This is likely the best Indian food restaurant in Denver. We tried Spice room on a Friday evening and while it was reasonably busy we were seated right away with our party of 5 people. The service was wonderful and they gave recommendations to us as well as answering our questions regarding the menu. We had a few appetizers and while you might not associate chicken wings with Indian food their Tandoori wings are AMAZING. The main courses we ordered were all delicious as well and cater to your spice tolerance. Two drawbacks it was a tad expensive but not crazy expensive, but as a trade off you are paying for quality. The second it is in a busy part of town with a very small parking lot so parking near can be a challenge. TL:DR - Amazing Tandoori wings, everything else is very good too. read more

For NYE we decided to do takeout from Spice Room...and it was delicious. Pricey for sure but the quality is excellent.

Nice parking lot read more

Excellence. Great food. Terrific service. No rush at all. Best Indian restaurant I've found in Denver by far.

Okay, disclosure, Indian food is not my fav. It's an ethnic cuisine I never reach for or suggest. So it will be hard for me to give any Indian food restaurant five stars. So I'm probably not trustworthy haha. But we got take out from here for my bachelorette party, and it was decent! Really appreciated there was a tofu option for the birani. They also had some non traditional stuff - like jalepeno and cheese naan and a spicy edamame dish - that were fun additions to the menu. The edamame was pretty meh but nice to have a Vegan protein option, which I feel that Indian restaurants usually lack. We also got a Chana masala, a chicken masala, and a potato and cauliflower dish. I think people thought it was solid, not amazing but definitely still enjoyable. Can't comment on service or ambiance since we did take out. It was very busy on a Saturday night tho so order early if you can. Appreciated the fairly clear vegan and GF labeling (although I personally think it's easier for places to mark something as GF rather than marking all items that aren't GF with a wheat symbol, which is how this place does it.) read more

What a delicious delightful treat to have at lunchtime to be able to walk in the spice room and taste flavors like you've never before. I highly recommend this for somebody who does like spicier peppers because you will be in for a true unbelievable experience. Take my advice and try Colorado's best Indian food. read more

It pains me to write this review because we love spice Room so much and were excited to see this new location emerge on the east side of downtown. We waited a couple of weeks for the newness to calm and for them to get things lined out after just opening but alas, I think we should have waited two more weeks. We made a reservation, which I highly recommend as 6pm on Saturday was crowded and the parking lot was full! We were attended to pretty quickly and sat near a window in the main dining room area. I could see lots of pick up orders waiting on a table nearby as is typical of their main location and people were coming in to grab orders to go as we were waiting to be seated. We ordered drinks right away and then waited for them to arrive. After they came we ordered our meal and then waited...a long damn time...our 3 apps came out one at a time over the course of 20 minutes and then after an hour our food showed up, Wrong. Lol. The real dilemma here is the servers didn't know what they were bringing to our table. We had the same dishes prepared slightly differently with spice and meat and they couldn't figure out what was what. That added another 15 minutes of confusion and lead to recreating one main dish. There seemed to be plenty of kitchen staff and we watched another 20 people get sat while we were waiting. The food tasted fine. The service was lackluster and I really like the new location. The real issue here for me is that they prioritize take out over those who dine inside. Take out orders are pouring out the door while people sit at their tables patiently waiting or maybe just waiting. The staff is new and we had to beg to get dirty plates taken away to reduce clutter. They would benefit from a better system to identify food and it's unique preparation. We were there nearly 2 hrs for what would normally be a one hour experience. The downside for this location is table turnover and lackluster customer experience. They did comp our confused main dish and that was greatly appreciated. We spent $120 and left feeling disappointed. We will give it another shot in a month or two and see how things go then. read more

Spice Room is the best Indian food around Denver! They offer a ton of variety and my favorites are the aloo saag and paneer makhini! The naan isn't my favorite but otherwise they get everything right! This location has a small parking lot and I haven't had any issues with finding space when picking up an order. I've only gotten takeout from this location but their service is always wonderful! read more

This place checks off first on food, and then service but this should always be about the food/product. First the table gets papadum or some sort of crispy cracker? Really good sauces from a tamarind based, herb, yogurt, and spicy veggies. Then ordered Panipuri which was really crunchy, solid sour sauce, and the filling was on point. Vindaloo was the most disappointing as I was hoping for a big flavor bomb and balance on flavors. Aachari was really good, and love when they use dark meat. (Not dry, tender, and flavorful) read more

The finest quality and best tasting Indian food we have ever eaten. We have eaten at Indian restaurants in many different countries and this was by far the best. Highly recommend to anyone living here or in the Denver area. Our server Anil was 10/10 and delivered the highest quality service. read more

The spice room is such a fun Indian restaurant with delicious food and fabulous service. Things are definitely spicy so opt for mild and add spice as you go if possible. Our server was super friendly and brought a yogurt based sauce to cool things down when things got too spicy. We ordered some samosas and spicy cauliflower to start. Both were excellent. The cauliflower had a slight East Asian flavor profile which was a nice surprise and cuisine fusion. For the main meal we had rice, mash, chicken tikka and chicken tikka masala. Everything was good and decadent- I honestly couldn't eat very much because it was so decadent and rich, but that's a good thing! Plenty of leftovers. Service was also fantastic with us being checked on, especially with the spiciness of everything! read more

I thought I would miss Annie's more, but Spice Room has become one of my favorite and most frequented restaurants in Denver. The food NEVER disappoints and is always so worth the price. I used to go to the other popular Denver Indian place but Spice Room is on another level read more

Delicious Indian cuisine with a great variety, atmosphere, and staff! My partner is Indian and we recently moved to the neighborhood so we had to check this spot out. The interior is warm and inviting as is service. Complimentary papadum with a variety of dips like green chutney, savory yogurt, sweet tamarind, and spicy chili-onion chutney was great. We love that they offer a variety of chaats like pani puri, which is a very fun snack/appetizer food with lots of textures and flavors going on. I ordered a salty lassi, which is a savory yogurt drink and it was perfect. They also have mango, rose, and sweet lassi if you prefer. We split the Goan fish curry which I was pleasantly surprised comes with turmeric rice instead of plain white basmati. Since it was our first visit we ordered mild spice, the lowest just to gauge -it was definitely mild with no heat for people who like that; we added chili chutney and would order medium spice next time. The curry was very fresh and rich, and the fish was juicy and flaky, just perfect. You can tell a lot of love goes into the food here. We ended with my partners favorite dessert, the rasmalai. Make sure to grab a spoonful of mukhwas (fennel seed after-dinner candy) at the front desk! I'm really impressed with the variety here, and how approachable the menu is for people unfamiliar with Indian cuisine. They also have some really unique cocktails and a HH that we will be back soon for! read more
