Best Indian restaurant in Denver metro, hands down! I can't believe I haven't written a review…read moreyet!! The Spice Room in the Highlands is the best one too, the others are great but this one is the best. A fantastic meal with good service at a great price- hard to come by in Denver! A few dedicated parking spots in front or otherwise on the surrounding streets.. whatever it is, don't let it deter you from coming bc they won't let you down. There's ~15 tables & everything is so fresh! You're served complimentary sauces with a thin roti-like cracker, and the sauces are all so good- my favorite is the cilantro one or the tamarind sweet one.. and they all go great on your dishes. The best appetizers are the samsosa chhole chaat- it's like a deconstructed samosa with crunchy bits & sauces on top, soooo good you won't want a regular samosa again! My other favorites are Chicken 65 & the veggie pakora (fried veg nests). Those 3 alone are enough for 2 people, but if you're super hungry, the entrees won't let you down either! Chicken makhani, biryani, tandoori chicken &/or the curries are where you'll never go wrong. All in all, I suggest you prioritize this Spice Room if you're even slightly an Indian food fan! Their variety of northern & southern Indian foods along with street food dishes are phenomenal.

I've ordered spice room delivery before but had never actually been to one of their locations, so I…read morefinally went to check out the Arvada spot with a group of five. This location has more of a South Indian menu than the others, which was a nice reason to pick it. We ordered a ton since there were five of us. Tandoori was my favorite, the chicken out of the clay oven was so good. We got three different naans, butter, garlic, and cheese, and the cheesy garlic one was the best of the bunch for me. Also tried the sev puri, pani puri, the appetizer platter, and the paneer dosa, all solid. This place is a classic in the Denver metro area and after finally sitting down here I get why. If you've only ever gotten it delivered like I used to, go sit down at one of the locations at least once. Already planning to go back and work through more of the menu since they have so many items.

(+) Chicken korma had good flavors although would have liked even more of the coconut to shine through. Dosa was excellent! Crispy shell with savory potatoes. Probably my fav dish. Chana masala solid, and spice levels were exactly as ordered. Service was fast Loved the retro vibe (-) The naan was a disappointment and was served cold and soggy. Maybe we just got a bad batch? Overall a B+ for me, I enjoyed it and would return it in the area.

It's not cheap, but we ate until we could burst and were really pleased with the food. Service was slow - empty plates and empty water glasses sat for a long time, and getting the check took a long time too. But for a self-service buffet, it's not the end of the world. Also - they need to start getting on their Instagram and Facebook page and replying to messages, people ask questions every time they make a post and they never reply! Do better here. These are your customers. Anyway, the food is fantastic, and we'll be back!

The delivery was quick, and the food hit the spot. The Punjabi samosas were spot-on and came with a great sauce for dipping. For the Chicken Tikka Masala, I asked for full heat, and they did not hold back. Absolute full-throttle spice packed with incredible flavor--flushed face, spice-induced endorphin rush, and zero complaints. If you're looking for fast, top-tier Indian delivery that actually honors a request for full spice, Coriander delivers.

Vegetable curry and butter chicken were ridiculously sweet, to the point where it was actually disgusting. The saag was so flavorless. Portions were meager, so value is poor, given that their curries were awful. No one else seems to be complaining about how sugary all the entrees are. Did they accidently spill a ton of sugar into only our food? I never had Indian food like this before, and I hope to never experience that curry again.

The lighting fixtures deserve a special mention! We came on a Monday evening so it wasn't too busy (mostly people picking up orders), so service was quick and efficient. We ordered only two dishes: baigan bartha and lamb korma, plus naan. The korma was fantastic and the bartha really good too. Since we only had water with dinner, our total bill (20% tip included) was $54. That was great! We will be back if we stay in Arvada again.

Mantra Cafe refers to having "Nepali Indian Fusion Food" and their menu reflects Himalayan items and classic Indian fare. It was a Tuesday evening and there were a handful of customers dining already - mostly couples I noticed. For our party of three, this is what we ordered: * Pani-Puri $8 * Garlic Cilantro Naan $5 * Rogani Lamb $22 * Village Curry Goat $22 * Basmati Rice (complimentary) Everything was very enjoyable with great flavors and we finished it all. I really appreciated that the basmati rice was complimentary. I was definitely curious about their various Mo-Mo items but we were very full with what we got. 4.5 stars

We came in during a rush--granted with 7 people. We were the second group seated during the rush…read more We were not provided menus even though the other parties were. We patiently waited while other tables that came after us ordered. Others had gotten their food already. We followed up, but they essentially blew us off. We waited over an hour for the food to come out. The food overall was good, but instead of getting the saag dish with lamb, we were given the saag paneer. I asked to pay, and they said got that fixed on the bill. They said they included a 5% discount for the wait, but they didn't say that a 20% tip would already be added. Despite having such POOR service, we still tipped $20.00, not knowing tip had already been included. I went to let them know that they could've have said something about the tip being added. They said it wasn't their intention. And I could've reviewed the receipt but they just put the machine to me and asked me to tap without giving the option to review the bill. Thing is, this is a state govt funded work function, and by state policy, we are not allowed to tip over 20% on meals. Either way, food was good, but service was POOR POOR POOR. Again I understand the circumstances, but you could communicate better and not be so dismissive.

First apologies for the delay in this well deserved review, Janakpur is the real deal. I ordered…read morethe goat vindaloo and asked for it actually hot, fully expecting the polite nod followed by medium-at-best that I usually get. Nope. They took me at my word and delivered. That vindaloo was legit spicy and absolutely incredible. As a pale dude who constantly has to fight for his right to real heat, I appreciate that more than I can say. The old fashioned was one of the best I've had anywhere, full stop. Not an easy thing to pull off and they nailed it. Service was outstanding. I had to step into a work call mid-meal and they were completely cool about it, no weird looks, no rush, just genuinely accommodating. That kind of hospitality is rare and it means a lot. I'll also be returning shortly to give back a napkin I accidentally walked out with, so consider that my excuse to come back soon. Highly recommend.

This is our go-to to-go Indian restaurant. I was looking at their menu tonight (even though I…read morealready knew my order) and it's surprisingly very extensive. We always get Chicken Tikka Masala or Butter Chicken, veggie korma, garlic naan and raita. Tonight we added something new and ordered the coconut tomato soup. I loved it, my 7yo said it had "too much flavor" although she loves everything else we get. We've probably ordered from here 10-15x now and unfortunately whenever we order they are out of seekh kebabs which I've been dying to try. They are one of my favorite Indian foods and I can't seem to order them anywhere. From now on I think we'll make a point to try something different each time we get takeout because they have so many options. After dinner tonight I wanted to hop onto yelp and let you know that this is THE Indian restaurant to go to when you're in the area.

All of that, some rice, nann bread and a bottle of wine made for an exceptional lunch before we headed out.
