Got the name from an Indian friend and tried it one weekend for lunch buffet. For 11 dollars, you have the choice of salad, several chicken dishes, vegetarian curry dish, a on-the-spot dosa station, and a dessert. You are also served with fresh made warm nann. The chicken was very tender and flavorful. The dosa is really good and it comes in a small size so it doesn't fill you up totally. The vermicelli dessert I had was very delicious although my husband find it a little bit too sweet for his taste. Overall, very good Indian food and I'll definitely go back there again. read more

Rated only on weekday lunch buffet for $11.95. The place is a bit noisy, hectic, cold and did not have a relaxing or enjoyable atmosphere. I have been here twice. I will not return because there is a much better lunch buffet down the road at https://www.yelp.com/biz/tandoori-flames-parsippany for the same price that makes this buffet look pathetic and sad. I feel bad for the customers who settle for this lunch buffet. Service was OK the waiter brings the Naan out to the table, refills your water and removes your empty plates. The whole buffet table area was a bit messy and unclean. There was very few choices of cold salads not properly refilled even thou I asked two/three times to different staff members. There was also sauces, relishes, fried items, hot dishes and one dessert on the buffet. The hot buffet selection had three fried items, three rice variations, three chicken dishes like chicken Tikka Masala which was good, five vegetarian dishes and the one dessert. At least four of the choices were good enough that you want to get seconds. This place has a few memorable dishes with good spice but you don't get good value here. Btw it's BYOB. read more

We have ordered Veg Manchurian in main course and all we got is tasteless diluted liquid veg balls. I think they have invented a new dish with the left over food. Never ever gonna have food from this place. read more

I have eaten here about four or five times and each time, I've had shrimp dishes. Each one has been superb. Spicy means "spicy" so don't say it if you don't mean it. Although located in one of Northern New Jersey's many strip malls, these guys manage to offer a nice decor and a warm ambiance. The waitstaff is friendly and professional, always greeting me and my family warmly. The waiter who served us tonight remembered my favorite dish even though it had been more than a month since we had been here. I like this place and I think you will too. read more

This has been one of the only Indochinese restaurants that actually get the chinese taste right. The entrees are large enough to be shared by two people (I couldn't finish the food even with a friend). The mango lassi wasn't all too good, but you definitely can't leave this place without trying the lollipop chicken! read more

The lunch buffet is great here. Plenty of quality food choices. My favorite is the Chicken Masala. The rice pudding dessert is also my favorite. Service is good. Plenty of parking spaces. read more

Gaamthi - Lunch Buffet - Indian Near Me - Parsippany, New Jersey

Horrible food. I had come here in the past a few years back and had a good experience so tried for take out today. It was horrible, the quality has deteriorated a lot. We ordered indo Chinese items like fried rice, noodle, chicken manchurian etc and my daughter almost threw it out. It was full waste of money and I will not come back ever again. read more

Oh my... I've been here a few times and can frankly say it's one of the best Indian restaurants I've been to. I've frequented Tamarind in NYC along with other places and Spice Grill beats them in terms of taste and price! Their chicken tikka masala is on a whole other level... The spice the flavor... It's the best chicken tikka masala I've ever had! The service is immaculate- and the overall ambiance of the restaurant is classy and clean. I've also had their buffet which is delicious and has an assortment of foods for a good price. Can't wait to come back! read more

Food is delicious. Seating is not so crowded that one cannot walk from our table to the buffet. There is a large buffet selection. And it is not all sauce. Korma are delicious. Tandoori chicken was my favorite. The rice pudding takes great but it is very gluey w lots of starch. Bathroom is unisex. I generally get very turned off by that. The chairs feel sticky. Must be all that pudding. read more

Gaamthi - Sagg w naan. Lunch buffet - Indian Near Me - Parsippany, New Jersey

As a regular consumer of Indian food, this was sub-par. We ordered out the palak paneer (saag paneer) and malai kofta with "medium" spice. Both were very bland. The malai kofta was watery. As someone else said here, there was no complexity in taste. There are much better options in the area for good Indian food. Try somewhere else for better taste. The prices were comparable to nearby places but the taste was inferior. Most places give papad, some different chutneys, chopped onions, and/or a lemon with your order. This place only gave onions and the standard rice. Also, the prices on the website are NOT up to date as of 10/26/13. I would not go there again. read more

Yum! Love their mixed grill and samosa chatt! I've been here numerous times and I'm pretty sure we order the mixed grill every time - it has lamb, chicken, sausage cooked different ways served on a hot plate! I wouldn't recommend this dish for take out, it's still good but much better served fresh. The restaurant is relatively big compared to others in the same shopping center and the wait staff are all pretty attentive. I would've given it 5 stars if restaurant was in a better location. Either way, can't wait to go back! read more

Came here for the first time with family friends during lunch- graduation celebration lunch! The food was good - in the buffet, they had malai mushrooms, dal makhani, palak paneer i believe, aloo gobi or was it mixed veggies (not sure), raita, eggplant sabji, rice and other non-veg dishes! Ooh they also had veg friend rice which i simply loved with the raita! The raita was a bit sweet but so delicious. It gel-ed with the fried rice perfectly well! I also liked the malai mushroom sabji with buttered naan! We ordered the garlic naan but it lacked flavor in my opinion. I have had good garlic naan before. The dal makhani was a bit too salty in my opinion if you're sipping on it by itself. The sirka onions were my favorite as well. Overall, my experience was nice! I definitely would like to try other things as well. read more

Excellent Ghobi Manchurian, as well as everything else on the menu!!! Best Indian food in Parsippany as far as I'm concerned.

The food here is amazing and the service with a smile. I order take out all the time and I love the dal tadka. Super authentic and tasty and really nice people. Go there! read more

Never been to the restaurant physically, so please make your own call. I have had their food for over three years now, but catered and provided at the company I work, for what ever reason, the Indian food is always ordered and catered from Spice Grill for all our events, in our office or for off site activities. The food is always average and tasteless, it has mixed tastes or just looks of the food not the taste. I say mixed, as it is hard to pin point if this is having south Indian touch or north Indian flavor or what. Recently had Vindaloo as Spice Grill catered our outdoor event, regardless to say, very disappointed and even the daal and paneer were average, I am forced to write this review hoping that owners read it and make some adjustments, Vindaloo and paneer tasted same, and why on earth it has to taste sweet. At the least, call a Goan and ask how to prepare it, if at all, adjust the heat for non- India palate, but not the spices, please. Go easy on tomato paste or keep your hands away from sugar. The mutton was not as tender as one would like, the curry's smell sits on your fingers for hours, and I did not feel the satisfaction of eating healthy and satisfying food. I could have only one half piece of naan and grudgingly went to the Tex-Mex fare that was the other option, needless to say, it was far better to have tacos even when Indian food was available. I feel guilty for writing this review, I have reconfirmed that food was from Spice Grill, I have never visited the outlet or paid for the food. I would not go, but if average fare is good enough for you, go for it. read more

We have been here many times and enjoyed the food and service. . The service was awful tonight, portions small, seemed like they were rationing . Did it change ownership. Will not be going back ever again. read more

It was great to finally to return to my favorite Indian eatery in Parsippany. The food and service was excellent.

The food quality has gone down tremendously! Not sure if they got a new chef or under new ownership. I've been going here for years and used to love it, but the past 2 times it was awful. The staff is very rude too! read more

I'm not from this area but was craving Indian and this place got pretty good reviews. We ordered Chicken tikka masala, chicken palak, navartan korma and garlic naan. Obviously my favorite was the chicken masala. Chicken palak was a bit too spicy and navartan had too much dairy flavor in it. But it was interesting how all three dishes were very different. Their garlic naan....!!!! You can never have enough garlic naan- amazing. Definitely worth trying this place. read more

Meh, I don't see the attraction to this place with so many other Indian restaurants in the area. Chicken Tikka Masala had an odd sauce - almost like there was cheese in it. And it was kind of sweet. My jal frozi was fine but not great. Lots of spice. Lots of carrots which I feel is a filler vegetable. Portions are small for the price. We will try another place next time. read more

Lately, we've been going to this Indian restaurant often. It's small, but the Decour is really nice, worth sitting in rather than take out. The food is excellent. Everyone in my family is vegetarian and the owner and cook will come out and talk about the dishes to give us peace of mind. The owner passed away recently who we miss dearly but his wife is doing a great job running the business. I recommend this to anyone snd I'm ready to go here almost every night. read more

I always have a good time going to spice grill, the food is always excellent. The tofu and chicken are my top picks!

Came here with a buddy of mine for lunch today. The selection was not huge for a buffet but all the food was excellent. Tandoori chicken was perfect, the chicken with Chile's was great as was the chili eggplant and chicken tikka Masala. The naan was a bit oily which turned me off of it but everything else was excellent. read more

I stopped through to try the buffet and I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious, comfortable, and convenient the entire lunch was. I was expecting a tasty meal after reading the reviews but the flavor, quality, and service surpassed my expectations, and certainly surpassed the super-cheap $10 price tag. The food was hot, fresh, tasty, and full of flavor and aromas. There were roughly 8 entrees, two types of rice, a few appetizers, and a dessert as well as various condiments & chutneys to accompany the complimentary - and fresh & fluffy - naan. The chicken was tender and juicy, not dried out and salty as buffet chicken can sometimes be. I definitely loved the Chicken Tikka Masala most, but everything I ate was enjoyable. The restaurant was clean and comfortable and the service speedy and polite. What a find - I'll definitely be back. read more

Great food! Excellent service will accommodate the level of spice. Always fresh and very authentic

The lunch buffet was absolutely delicious. The food was fresh and seasoned perfectly. The service was extremely attentive for a buffet. Worth the price, only thing missing was dessert. read more

My friends and I have eaten at Spice Grill many times since our first visit and have never been let down! The food quality is always top notch and the cost is so reasonable. Of all the different restaurants this group of "foodie" friends have gone to, Spice Grill is the one we have returned to time and time again. read more

Been going here for many years. Food delicious as usual. However, learned the wonderful owner we used to see all the time passed away 2 weeks ago. His wife and family are managing the business. My thoughts go out to his family. read more

Mainly we order chicken biriyani & mutton biriyani when we go there.There biriyani is best in the parsippany area

Some of the BEST curry I've ever had. The staff was very nice, restaurant was clean, the food was amazing and on point. The garlic naan was perfectly cooked and Curry had a good spice and amazing flavor. read more

Eh.. I had high hopes from the reviews I read but was disappointed. First of all the buffet price is outrageous for the quality and quantity of the buffet. It's tiny. Limited choices. The food I tried was decent but here is another huge turn off about this place. It's dirty. Like the walls next to our table had splatters all over them. The floors were disgusting. You can see the grime built up in the corners. Yuck! Total turn off and I won't be back. read more

So my wife and I came to Spice Grill on accident.. Well, not on accident, but we went to a different restaurant and they didn't have anything on the menu that I really wanted, so we walked out.. Classy, huh? Anyways, We showed up for the lunch buffet, not knowing whether we were going to pay $10 or $90 per person because it was our first time there. The staff was immediately attentive and sat us right away. There wasn't a large crowd when we showed up, but just one table with a lot of people. The vegetarian selection was vast. Since my wife and I have become vegetarian, we have not really eaten out at an exclusive vegetarian restaurant. We have eaten at several Indian restaurants and have never seen such a large amount of Vegetarian dishes at the buffet. Everything was good, literally everything. Dare I say, this was the best Indian restaurant I have been to. As I am writing this, my mouth is watering, just thinking of how rich the sauces of each dish were. The owner even came up to us and asked us like the dosa he prepared for us. I am more than pleased and honestly can't wait to return.By the way, lunch was only $12.95, which is a steal compared to Mantra in Paramus, and the food was significantly better. read more

Best Indian food by far. Always on point. Quality taste and reliable. CTM is and Biryani is also really good

Spice Grill is a store front Indian restaurant in Parsippany, NJ. Unassuming on the outside with tasteful and understated décor on the inside. The service is friendly and patient. The kitchen is slow but I will attribute this to the time taken to properly prepare a meal. My wife and I have now been here nine times, three times for their Sunday dinner buffet, the remainder during the week to order from the menu. As "almost" vegetarians, we really enjoy the large selection of vegetarian entrées common to Indian cuisine. The large number of vegetarian appetizers is also appreciated. Our favorite appetizer is the samosa. Wonderful fried pockets of potato and peas with delicious seasonings. Served with Cilantro and Tamarind Chutneys. Truly delicious. The Naan is freshly baked and exactly as it should be: warm and chewy with just a hint of seasonings. We have found the food to be delicious. A favorite dish for me is Kadir Paneer. Homemade cheese with a tomato, onion and green peppers in a tomato based sauce. When I ask for it "extremely spicy" they believe me and I get the heat level I desire! The owners, a husband and wife, are friendly and ready to answer any question. The wife spent several minutes with us explaining how they make their spice mixtures and maintain the full depth of flavor in the dishes even while making it hot enough to satisfy this chili head. Missus does not care for her food to be as hot as I like mine and she asks for it at a medium heat and tells me that it always hits just the right level for her. It is 18 miles each way for us to go to the Spice Grill and we make the trip about once every other week. Though we have tried several other Indian restaurants in the same area, this is the one that we keep coming back to. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. First let me preface by saying we used to frequent here weekly. Then after years of eating there, I came across raw chicken after part of it. I quietly went to one of the owners and whispered to him that there was raw chicken on the buffet and that I had eaten some. He never said sorry, or anything for that matter, just turned away and went to the kitchen. He never came to the table to clear the raw chicken either or check up on us. In fact, he avoided us for the rest of the meal. Odd because we have been long time loyal customers who were friendly with the staff. He then tossed us a full price bill and muttered under his breath "sorry about that." Uhhhh did you just charge me full price for raw chicken after years of coming to you? I said "well I just hope I don't get sick." Boy did I get sick. I lived in the bathroom for 8 days. Lost 5 pounds. And spice grill keeps trying to erase this review so nobody sees. Amazing. We will never ever ever be getting back together..(or going back lol ) It's not that you had a bad day and made a mistake (a BIG one) it's the way you handled it with a long term customer. Lucky for us though, this gave us the opportunity to try other Indian restaurants in the area that turns out to be WAY BETTER and cheaper. To name a few......... Chand Palace Cinnamon Go elsewhere if you want to eat safely and be assured if there's a problem that it will be handled correctly. I was so so sick. I prayed I wouldn't get sick, but I did. Shame on you spice grill for treating a long term, loyal customer like this. But thank you for the opportunity to try other better, cheaper places in the area. read more

Below average food. Terrible Service. My wife and I went there on a Sat morning at 11.15 for the buffet. The website says the place opens at 11. So we knocked at the door since we weren't sure if they were opening later or just closed for the day for whatever reason. A guy (head waiter) came to the door, scowled at my wife that the restaurant opens at 11.30 and slammed the door in her face...all within 5 seconds. We still waited for the restaurant to open at 11.30 since we figured this may be a one-off thing. We were received with the same attitude after opening. We decided not to eat here after all this experience. On my way out, I called the owner (his bus card was at the front desk) leaving a very polite message about the bad service we received. Mind you, not one rude word in that message. Just saying we were disappointed. It's been a week and the owner never even called to speak with me. There's plenty of good Indian restaurants in the area. Try Cinnamon in Morris Plains. read more

Food was excellent, but priced a little higher than expected. Also, no rice, bread or accompaniment was provided with the entree. Good food overall. read more

Disappointing... I had been to this place years ago and happened to be in Parsippany and was really craving some indian food so I stopped in here and ordered some take out. I ordered the paneer makani, rice, naan, and some raita. When I got home I was soooo hungry that I probably would have ate anything but was highly disappointed by what I had in front of me. The rice was perfect and fluffy, the raita was spiced well and the naan was done well. However the centerpiece of my meal...the paneer....seemed to be in a tomato sauce that resembled tomato bisque. It just was not what I think of when I eat indian food. I would go back here again...everyone deserves a second chance but I def will order something different. read more
