Everyone knows that Irving is the Indian food capital of DFW. So what is this little shack doing here, in my neck of the woods? I am thankful for it, though. So thankful. I went there yesterday at yelp's suggestion. It was boppin' as all hell. The parking lot and the gas things were all completely filled. The little dining room was completely filled. This was at around 1:00. I ordered two potato samosas, naan, and chicken biryani, all for around $8. So far, so good. Then it took like, thirty minutes to get my goddamn order. Not good. And then, they almost gave me the wrong one. So on the way home, I was thinking that this better be some of the best damn food I ever had. And you know what? It pretty much was. The samosas were great. Good texture, amazing flavor. Could've done without the peas in it. I think Namaste's is just a little bit better. The biryani though? Holy shit. Huge amount, just the right amount of spice, and stupid, stupid good. Every grain of rice is wrapped in all this moist, complex flavor. On weekdays, there's a deal going on where you can get all that for $2.99 between 11 AM - 3 PM. Even if you don't go within that allotted time, it's like, $4.59. I'm eating the leftovers now and you know what? They're just as good. The naan is wonderful. It is all so good. I will go back and I will gladly wait as long as I must. read more

Being an Indian myself, I'd like to think that I am a pretty good judge of Indian food. Mom's Spice is a really good lunch place and good for take-outs. The food always tastes fresh. It is located inside a gas station in Hurst and has the best Chicken Biryani. I really like their Chicken curry with naan. Prices are amaaaaazzziing, compared to some of the other Indian places. I highly recommend paying this awesome gem a visit for lunch. read more

I just...there's nothing I can add to the Star-Telegram's review. It's an Indian restaurant in a gas station. Sold. The biryani was AMAZING. Not at all dry, super flavorful, with tons of spice. The dal was the exact sort of simple, warm, comfy food I imagine I would miss most if I were pining for a taste of home. The kebabs were some of the best I've had. Uh-mazingly cheap, too. I'm a big guy, and for $3 I could get a large styro take-out container so stuffed with biryani I couldn't finish it on a bet. Two meals for $3! Did I mention that it's an Indian restaurant in a gas station? ^_^ read more

I've been going to Moms for the past few months after discovering it accidently. The food is phenomenal, the prices extremely reasonable. What has captured my attention and palate the most is the freshness of the food. It may not be a fancy place, but they make up for it in the quality and absolute deliciousness of the foo, in fact I'd go far as to say this is the best Indian food I have eaten anywhere in the Ft Worth area. Chicken Biriyani is phenomenal, tandoori chicken is authentic, you will not be disappointed. The customer service is also very good. "Keep it up Moms", I'll definitely be back!!! read more

Mom's Spice - Most amazing chicken biriyani. - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

See all

Every Sub-continental food serving restaurants in DFW excels at least in one item. However , almost all of them fail in one particular dish -- chicken biriani. If you still think that the chicken birianis you have tasted was ok , i must say - u actually don't know what chicken birianis should taste like. But Moms Spice seems to be at least near to perfection in Chicken Biriani. read more

First of all, this is my favorite spot for authentic Indian food. It's the bee's knees. Also, the people are friendly. That's why I'm throwing down five stars. However, my recent visit was a bit disappointing. I went in after 7pm. The buffet, which ends at 3, was covered in crumbs and not wiped down. Every table was either messy or had not been wiped clean. Chairs weren't even pushed in. It was chaotic. The television looked like someone sprayed it with soda. All of that being said, I will return. read more

Awesome biriyani! Great prices also. Don't be deceived by the location. We called in our food for 3 people and picked it up. One biriyani was enough for three of us and we had all ordered different things. Definitely worth trying! read more

Mom's Spice - Just leftovers from Mom's Spice - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

Worst Indian food I have ever had...ordered chicken tikka masala, said she was out. Only had chicken curry. No problem, I like chicken curry so I ordered one to go, along with some naan. Got it home, no rice. Worse, it had full pieces of chicken with the bone in, and was a grey color. Worst tasting than it looked. So bad I ended up having to go to mcdonalds to eat. The naan? Chewy. Steer clear if you want decent indian food. read more

Mom's Spice - Chicken curry, with bones. - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

It is NOT fast food!!!! Most dishes take 45 minutes to make. Your best bet is to call your order in about a half an hour before u go, that way you don't have to wait so long!! Amazing food, great prices...& we are really friendly! Come on down & try our Chicken Biryani...it is the biggest seller. On Tuesdays chk b is only 2.99! read more

Yes, you can pay for your gas at the same time as you dine. Yes, the setting is small and simple. And yes, you could probably pass by this small restaurant without even noticing it. However, you would be doing yourself a disservice. Admittedly, I did not dine in, so I cannot say what that experience would be like, but I did take away a remarkably delicious meal for a very very reasonable price. Unfortunately, I was out of luck since their chicken biriyani had sold out. While I had to settle for the mutton biriyani, it was still quite delicious, filled with large pieces of mutton. Their vegetable samosas were crisp and authentic, although the naan (while good), was not quite amazing. If you get a chance, the chicken curry is also quite flavorful! Go for it! read more

This place is delicious. I come here weekly for their lunch buffet and they have the best tandoori chicken ever. Small little gem hidden inside a gas station. Highly recommend. read more

Great food. No doubt about it. But customer service is a big part of any business. One of the two Hispanic ladies that work there (the bigger one) is very rude and condescending. Rolls eyes and gets an attitude whenever asked a question. The other lady skinny one is the exact opposite, very pleasant and helpful. Please get rid of her. read more

It's really a but of a struggle to find a good Indian restaurant, but I hit the jackpot with Mom's! My girlfriend and I brought her mom, who had never had Indian food before, and Mom's really impressed her. If you like Indian food--and even if you don't--this place truly warrants a visit. read more

Best of everything !! I love goat biryani the most!! It's not an ideal place for dining, since it's a part of gas station. Prices are very reasonable. And their catering options are great. I got a biryani tray for a party and everyone loved it. read more

Great food!! First time and I was impressed! Interior might fool you, not much on atmosphere, but I spoke with the owner and manager about his food. He only has Kosher chicken shipped in from New York, and gets his beef from Weatherford. All natural no hormones or antibiotics. Every thing is fresh and tasty. A little spicy just the way I like it, but not too much, I'll be back. I've eaten many times in London where the Indian food is famous. So this place may not be London, but it sure satisfied my craving for great Indian food! Tim read more

Man I LOVE this little place! Simple hole in the wall with authentic Indian food. I absolutely love the spice so they do live up to their name. Had a mango lassi for the first time here and now I can't go without it every time I come back. Owner is a very nice man who appreciates my business. Always a treat for me when I visit. I only come for the lunch buffet. I'm grateful to my friend who introduced me to this place and now I enjoy taking people here. I've been to many other huge Indian buffets that simply can't compete with this spice and authenticity. Not to mention for the price you pay. At least give it a try, you can be the judge. read more

We ate here on a Saturday afternoon so no buffet. Our food was made to order and boy was there a bunch of it! I ordered Chicken Biryani and my friend had chicken curry. My Biryani was enough food for 4 grown men and it was chock full of chicken and delicious crispy fried onions and rice. They asked how spicy we preferred and it came exactly as requested. Both dishes had great flavor. We spoke for a while with the owner (?) and he was a very nice gentleman who was curious as to how we had heard of his place and if our meal was ok. I must say this was the most pleasant experience I've had in one of these "in a gas station" Indian food establishments. We will return again as I really do want to try the buffet! read more

I love their biriyani. They provide a lot of food for a really good price. I wish they provided more meat. read more

Mom's Spice - Biriyani is so delicious! - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

In terms of food quality and taste, this place is amazing. Don't be fooled by the location or the proximity to a gas station. Call it a gas station Indian food place if you want to, but I'll still go there again and again Tried the buffet, it's on weekdays for 8.25 with tax and worth every penny. The fish is really good, and the mutton curry.. Mmm.. Amazing. Give it a shot! read more

The food is just amazing. I really can't say anymore. I've only tried two dishes so far but they are so on point. Whatever you decide to get here it's gonna be one of the best meals you've ever had. read more

Mom's Spice - Lunch buffet - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

I can't believe I didn't try this place sooner! Don't be put off by the gas station location. The food is fresh, delicious and massive portions! Everything I've tried is on the spicy side, so if you're not sure what to choose ask the wonderful and helpful owner who is always there on what he would recommend for your spice level preference. My favorite is the goat curry...I've literally been and picked up an order 3 times in 10 days! read more

Mom's Spice - Half of my goat curry and naan! - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

I went here because of all the great reviews. I travel all over the US and I have had the pleasure of dining in some great Indian eateries. This was not one of them. I am totally cool with the hole in the wall ambiance. The food was a major disappointment. Chicken Tikki Masala was an abomination. The Coconut Chicken Curry was no better. The Nan freshly made was stiff and bland. The Mango Lassi was one of the best. The owner is pleasant and loves what he does, but the food was a major disappointment. I do not recommend Mom's Spice. read more

Tried out this place today, the food was totally good! I went in for the buffet, food was hot and yummy, they even offer you complimentary naan! I just wish the environment was a bit nicer, that's all read more

This is by far the best Indian food in fort worth, i have been to a lot of different places and i keep going back to mom's because the food is so great. i highly recommend you try this out! read more

Despite its location, they serve delicious food. I like their biryani's more than other foods. Their service can be better. read more

Best Indian food I have had in tx and a 8 buck buffet .plus burgers, gyros, fajitas , etc read more

Mom's Spice - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

Great Biryani and Gyros! They also deliver on DoorDash so that's an extra. It's you're typical great "gas station" food although it's actually in a separate building from the gas station. Great customer service! read more

If you are a Tandoori Chicken Lover. It's a must visit for you. There is no place with as reasonable price as Mom's spice for Buffet. Yayyy Spice Lovers !! Let's celebrate read more

Let's be honest, you come to Mom's Spice for Authentic Indian food, not a fine dining experience. Located inside a gas station, this little hole in the wall has become a lunch favorite of mine in the Hurst area. If you've never been here, I suggest that you try their lunch buffet so that you get acquainted with the food (again, served in disposable plates and plastic silverware, this is not a fancy food joint). Their naan is made to order and brought out to your table. Dessert selection is sparse but overall food is amazing. Tip: If you are eating from their regular menu, CALL AHEAD and give them about 25min to make your food. Note: Authentic India food means that it is deliciously Spicy! Must try. read more

If you are looking for mom & pop Indian/Pakistani food, this is an excellent option in the metroplex. We went for the lunch buffet. The dine in area was clean, however this is a place you go for food and not atmosphere, as it is connected to a gas station. The buffet options were fresh, the food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The prices were also very reasonable. This is now my go-to Indian food buffet, cannot wait to take my wife to try it! read more

I am eating Mom's Spice Chicken Biriyani right now for dinner, while writing this review. Got one, an hour back. Ate half of it there itself, with thick yummy yogurt and brought the other half to the hotel. BTW, this is my 16th biriyani from Mom's Spice in 2 months. It is not me, who discovered Mom's Spice. But my fellow American colleagues. And they found it based on the reviews given by this restaurant lovers. We went out for lunch to this place for the first time, in March. The place despise the mind of People, but once you visit the restaurant, you will be a regular customer. Like I do. Love the buffet too ($6.99 - that's a good deal). Dal + Chicken Kebab + Chicken Tikka Masala + Chicken Curry + Beef Curry + Two veg curries + Salad + Gulab Jamun + Tandoori Chicken + Bread + Spickey Juicy Fish Fry, Mom's Spice buffet is a real treat for Indian food lovers. read more

I went here today and it was very yummy but a little spicy! I was not fond of the atmosphere because it is in a gas station and was kept very dirty. I kicked a cricket under the sofa machine because I was so grossed out it was there. It wasn't alive. Flys swarmed all around us and kept landing on our food. We won't be back because of that but the customer service was great. Oh but there bread is amazing. read more

Mom's Spice - Indian Near Me - Hurst, Texas

The best Indian food near me!!! The small restaurant is in a convenience store. Its not super clean but the food has always been good.

Been here maybe 4 times. The food has a lot of spice and is a little on the hot side. Buffet is a must try. I'm not much for buffets (I cant each much so its a rip off for me), but I might try it again since you get a lot of different flavors. Chicken curry, fish, daal, biryani, tandoori chicken are all taste enough to recommend. Its affordable food (check out their specials for extra value). Only thing I didnt care for was the chicken tikka masala. I dont taste ANY cream in there, its all a heavy yogurt taste. My son loves it, but I dont like how the yogurt curdles in the sauce (YUCK!) 3/7/2017 Make sure you call ahead and preorder your food. Otherwise, they'll 'be out' and try to upsell you the more expensive food items (especially if want you wanted was a special, but I've noticed it on other items as well). Gonna have to start shopping around for another 'go-to' indian place. read more

Oh man. You guys.. this place is GOOD. It's a hidden gem! Best biryani and butter chicken of my life. It's located in a gas station but that gives it a really cool hole in the wall feel - like you've discovered something really special. Owner is a super nice guy, always has a smile on his face. The lines can get kind of long so plan accordingly. The prices are ridiculously low. Check this place out. I'd even say drive from afar just to get a taste. read more

What a great find when we simply stopped for gas. Inside the gas station is a very simple, clean Indian food cafe. I am engaged to a Punjabi man who often complains that most Indian food restaurants have watered their food down for American taste buds. Not the case here! It's spicy and flavorful. I took a menu and a sample to my fiance and he agreed it tasted great, he was impressed they use a clay oven, and will be happy to wait the extra time for the tandoori chicken because he knew it will be fresh. The station also has a selection of spices and products from India. We'll definitely be sure to stop in again! read more

I am not a big fan of biryani but I was told by one of my friend to try it.I ordered it for pickup without any big expectations bit after I opened up the togo tray I saw there wwas huge portion of biryani with ample size of meat pieces diving in aroma and spices in there. when I dug the spoon and raised it up to mouth the aroma and flavor went through my nostrils and signals reached my tummy saying I was going to have a badass biryani of my whole life. after the spoon landed my mouth and the pile of meat and rice fell off on my tongue I could feel the zitter on my tongue due to those authentic spices which included cardamon, cinnamon barks, fried onion and u name it. it was a awsomest biryaani. my friend I will tell u try once and u will see. it can be little spicy for normal american so ask for mild....I havenot tried any other items from menu but definitely gonna try kudos to owner of this small eatery read more

Hhhhmm I mean can you really expect a 5 star dinner at a place that's inside a gas station? So I never really had that high hope for this place but I will say that Moms spice is a hit or miss for me. I have eaten here twice and well the first time i gave my dish 4 star, I had the chicken tikka masala dinner and it was good and didn't give me food poisoning but the second time i wish I could say otherwise, I had the chicken samosa( PLEASE DONT GET THIS) ,veg samosa, and mango lassi and those didn't sit well in my stomach so beware of this place, and if you have a sensitive stomach.. AVOID read more

Yummy, plenty & very reasonable price I don't know about the lunch buffet. This is not your 3 or 5 star restaurant, just a gas station hole in the wall read more
