I am updating my review on 1/28/23…read more 8.5/10 This place has become a go to for me. I have gotten the chicken sheek kabob and it's so good but make sure you get the onion chutney with it. You must get the chicken tikka. Some of the best I've had in all my adventures. I've been getting the paneer karahi and it's also very good. Can't really go wrong with the food here! Must try!!

The chicken tikka masala is nice and creamy and doesn't have a strong tomato taste like some places, which I appreciate. Everyone that works there is super nice. I think the portions seem a little smaller than full serve places but the size is still adequate and the prices are relative.

For what is essentially an enhanced food court experience, you get a pretty tasty meal here,…read moreeverything comes out quickly, and the owner takes very good care of you. The menu is pretty extensive for the seemingly small kitchen space you can see behind the counter. My vegetable samosas (2) were piping hot and had a decent amount of "not potato" in them, accompanied by 2 sauces. The Chicken Tikka Masala Bowl includes a generous amount of well-prepared rice. Normally I pass on rice except as a vehicle for sauce, but I finished this. The sauce had a reasonably deep red color and an enjoyable spicy flavor, maybe a little less tomato flavor than I've had elsewhere, but still quite good. Naan, wrapped in foil, is fresh and hot, but not necessarily crisp. Flavored naans will have the flavors as a stuffing. My mango lassi was excellent - I almost wanted to steal a larger milkshake cup from nearby Herbie's and ask for that to be filled up instead. All in all, if you are looking for an Indian meal while at Galleria 7, you will be very satisfied here.

This review is specifically for people with oil issue…read more Sorry to hear you didn't have a great experience. Let me just start by saying that Authentic Pakistani food is greasy, they do have oily puddle in their curry. That oily puddle deep or shallow is called "Taaree". If you ever visit Lahore, you gotta go to the andoronay Lahore, old Lahore basically and every small restaurant you will go to has some oily greasy side to it. All you gotta do it, pour it out or use paper towel to soak oil out of your dish. That's all. Pakistani/Indian dishes are not the healthiest kind but of course you can make any Desi (Pakistani/Indian/ Bangla) dish healthy if you make it at home, with very little or no oil. Or use coconut OR any other oil substitute. Ordering a take out is a treat for most of the population, so unless you are going to just settle with little bit oily dish then what's the point. Just grab a paper towel and get rid of the excess oil and still enjoy the Authentic Pakistani dish. I am just a customer at Spice and Beyond and I understand that they might not be perfect but they are doing a pretty good job of bringing part of Pakistan to New York. Have a wonderful day.

As I had read prior to arriving, this is definitely a take-out spot. I got Butter chicken and it was good, though I had been hoping for more flavor.... This was likely an error in my part and I should've ordered something else, but I will likely be going back to try something new!

I didn't mind because it was pleasant speaking to other customers. It's a small takeout place, but a customer told me that they have a bigger place with seating coming soon. Very good. I just had a type of kebab and naan, and they gave me chutney. They're famous for their nihari, a type of beef curry, and other dishes. A local told me that this is the most authentic Pakistani food in the area. Very good

It's fine. Just fine. It's not bad. It's not amazing. The food is made to order. I guess it's OK…read more The place is weirdly lit. There are semi-comfortable chairs around utilitarian tables. They're fine. I suppose you could take kids here. You order at the counter, pay first, and then go find a place to sit. In about 15-20 minutes they bring your food to the table. The drinks (Gatorade, iced tea) are in a cooler next to the register. They ask for the tip before they bring your food, and no one checks on you to see if you need anything or if you liked it. It's fine though. Just fine. You can leave your plate on the table when you leave. It's like a takeout place but they let you eat it inside if you're so inclined. The rice tasted and had the consistency of clumpy Uncle Ben's 90-second bag rice. It's fine. Just fine. The chicken in the butter chicken dinner was over cooked and dry, but not bad. The sauce was delicious but the rest of the dish..... meh. It's fine. Just fine. It's not expensive: $12-16 for a dish of food. Here's the deal: go here. You will not be amazed at the quality, the service, the ambience, the decor, the staff.... But DO try it. You might say "Turns out I kinda like Glens Falls' boring interpretation of Indian food". Don't go here for a first date or with picky kids. Don't go here with a large group. Just go with one or two other people to TRY it. You'll be fine. Just fine.

Now that we have tried it, we are happy to have this recently opened take out restaurant three miles from home. We definitely will order again soon! The family enjoys Indian/Pakistani food locally, especially at Karavalli, Spice Malabar, and Shalimar in Latham. We think this food was as good as we have had there. A few dishes were even better. Each of us was very pleased with our food choices. Our order included: Pakora as an app. The raita was outstanding! Best I have ever had. Chicken Tikka Masala -- flavorful and with very tender moist pieces of white chicken. Chicken Buryani -- excellent Tandoori Chicken Beef Kabob Goat entree Lamb with Creamed Spinach -- tender meat with delicious spinach Dal Tadka -- lentils Garlic Naan I am including a few photos.

I do hear that they only do takeaways and there's no tables or chairs.

The bathrooms were clean, one sink defunct but not a big deal. Its quite spacious and you can elect to eat outdoors or indoors. There's not much of a view however there's no bugs and you can watch a beautiful sky roll through with peace and calm. They didnt play any music while I was there on a monday evening at 630pm

They didn't hold back, as I requested. The vindaloo had great flavor, in addition to the spice, and the chicken was not dry at all. They also gave a nice helping of rice pilaf. The Roti was spot on and not too oily. The family was incredibly friendly and service was prompt. You order inside at the register and they bring your food to you. The only issue I had is that the place needs some serious maintenance. The bathrooms inside were not well cared for. That's the only reason I had to take off a star. Definitely worth visiting, as long as you don't need a bathroom. Remember to tip well.

Back after about seven years. $8.99 Lunch Buffet is now $16.99…read more Variety of food on buffet is typical of mid level Indian buffet places. Impressed that they received a 100% compliance score from Health Department. No violations. Bravo! One complaint: Buffet starts at 11:00, yet Naan was not put out until 11:50. However, the Plain Naan was warm and very good! I was selective about what I put on my plate. Again, Tandoori Chicken was overdone--dry and tough even the thigh piece I tried to eat. Not okay. Chili Chicken is good. It is similar to Chinese Sesame Chicken. Tikka Masala was very good with tender chicken. Spinach with chickpeas was good. The two rice choices were nice and hot. The Mulligatawny Soup was lukewarm and thin and spicy as expected. Cabbage is excellent! Nice flavor and cooked well. Dessert was their regular rice dish that I did not want to eat. No Goat dishes offered today. They are usually good.. Restaurant seating is booths and tables.

Oil that was used for few weeks. Service was a take out order. So good and fast. Some people were sitting for lunch buffet. Naans were dry and rubbery. Poori looked and tasted like white tortilla flat bread fried. I don't know what to get couple good authentic Pakistani dishes around. Sheesh kebab was okay, it was that $2 chicken kebab chopped with some onions n green peppers and lemon and they charged me $15 for it. $45 down the hole. Raita was too sweet and carroty. It's basically American version of Desi food. They just took the Desi out of it. Kashmiri naan was just the most unappetizing orange colored thing with coconut shreds in the folds. What happened to almond shreds and raisins on Kashmiri naan. Post Covid times, food is just super expensive and the quality is gone. I am done. I want to really post a great food review, that will make my taste buds sizzle with flavors.
