    I'll split the review for this place based on the quality of food and quality of the service. First, the good. The food was flavorful and delicious. I had the Butter Chicken. It was spicy, though, even though asking for mild. But mixed with rice and some Naan, the food was enjoyable. And it came out nice and hot when I got my order. Now the bad. First, ordering in the store is like a fast food place, but the wait is like a sit-down restaurant. To order in store it took 30 minutes to get the food. Yet, they have a case like Panda Express with a bunch of items inside it. I'm not sure the purpose of that if it takes so long to receive the order. Calling ahead feels like a must as most people were walking in and picking up orders. The employees seem disorganized and sometimes are just standing around, even though clearing the trash and ensuring tables are clean could be done. Finally, the menu is way too large. They should really focus on refining this menu. Maybe have staples and then on certain days serve specials. If a special is ordered enough, move it to a permanent item. Overall, this restaurant needs refinement. They need to evaluate what they want to be, Indian fast food or a traditional sit-down place. But the taste of the food is good, so I hope they fix these issues.

    Pricy place butter chicken was under average. And this ball appetizer was no good as well. Won't come back again.

    Food was not fresh, not tasty. Would not recommend. You're not missing out on anything- find another place to eat.

    I'll start by saying this, I'm not casually into Indian food. I'm an Indian food aficionado. My…read morebusiness 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.

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:

Very smokey and less tomatoey than what we typically were used to. It was so delicious! The portion was a bit small though! The chicken dum biriyani was very flavorful and the chicken was so tender. We had plenty of food between the 2 of us. Whatever spice level the waiter chose for us was perfect! Not too spicy, but had a good kick to it! Service was good, but pretty slow. Nice big tables and booths!

Biggest mistake, never come here on weekends unless you want to be stepped on and have people cut in line ahead of you. Customers just crowd all over the cashiers register. By the time I got to the front, it was the cashiers/ servers discretion on whom he/she would serve first (can't blame them), by the time I got a guys attention he ignored me to chit chat with someone whom He knew, maybe a friend. Gotta say I love the food, but it' was too harrowing of an experience to ever wanna come back. And on my second visit I paid and picked up my food but the food was not packed properly, half the containers fell out onto the floor, no one offered to help, I picked up and left thankfully most of it remained in the plastic bag as it was somewhat tied up

The curry was creamy and flavorful without being too heavy, which is perfect when you still have the rest of the workday ahead of you. And the naan? Soft, warm, and fresh... the kind that just completes the meal. The portions are generous, so you get great value for lunch. It's definitely more satisfying than the typical quick-grab options around the area. And the dining area is clean, casual, and comfortable enough to actually enjoy your break instead of rushing through a meal. Plano has a lot of Desi food options, but for a weekday lunch that delivers real taste and isn't rushed or sloppy, O'Desi Aroma stands out.
