    a bowl of rice and a plate of naan bread
    Jacinda X.

    Food: this is our go to Indian restaurant! We love the chicken biryani, shrimp chettinad, garlic naan, and chicken tikka masala. The flavors are right on! Medium spice is perfect for us. Service: friendly. Could be more attentive and refill waters as it was not a busy Tuesday night. Ambiance: Indian music playing and clean restaurant. The bathroom smelled pretty awful

    When I'm in the mood for Indian food, Spice N Rice is my go to spot. I used to get it delivered quite a bit in the winter. A nice chicken Curry with their fluffy Naan, basmati rice and a Mango Lassi is my usual order. Although, so many other items look fantastic as well. I keep telling myself that I'll something different next time. I've been getting it as take out more recently because the restaurant is conveniently located where I can do my other shopping nearby and pick up my order when I'm finished. I highly recommend Spice N Rice as one of my favorite Indian restaurants in the OP area.

    So delicious!! They kept the chai tea flowing the entire meal, plus a to-go cup, which helped with the few spicy dishes we got (like the spicy cauliflower appetizer!) I wanted to try the classic Chicken Biryani, which was truly delicious, but the boiled egg topping was definitely overdone and I was surprised to learn that the rice was colored with food coloring... who knew?? I figured it was done with spices. Naan = AMAZING!!! Sautéed fish - so good and super paleo/Keto friendly. I'd LOVE to try some more dishes and come back another time. The staff were very helpful in answering our questions (specifically, the folks that spoke enough English that is). And everyone was super friendly!

    GARLIC NAAN
    Ivani B.

    It was ok. Nice if you are looking for Indian food, but if you know good Indian food and looking for flavor it is not there. The location is nice, restaurant is spacious and clean and the staff is attentive. I ordered pretty basic with the chicken Marsala. I ordered the least spicy and it honestly tasted like tomato sauce with sour cream mixed in it. No flavor at all, very bland. My friend ordered something that was supposed to be very spicy and I tried his and it did have a kick, but lacked flavor. Even the garlic naan bread that I ordered was lacking flavor. Not sure if I'll be back. Theres many other Indian restaurants around town with better flavored food, but im glad I got to try.

    Curry chicken and Butter Chicken with rice pudding
    Tes H.

    I am so happy I stumbled into this place. I was right next door to Whole Foods (who had very little options for lunch) so I walked down the shopping center and there was this Indian place - I thought I might as well try it. Everything is extremely clean (came during COVID times). The staff was quiet, but so nice and attentive. They showed me the menu for lunch specials and offered to make it gluten free (this is important for any of you with food allergies!). I was impressed with that alone. The food was amazing. The special was butter chicken and curry chicken, two of my favorite Indian dishes. Both were exceptional. The rice pudding for dessert is my favorite, because I'm simple and I love dessert :). I highly recommend coming here, especially on a lunch break because they get you in and out quickly without being pushy at all. I love that.

    Chicken briyanni (bone in)
    Joe K.

    In supporting local, I ordered on the phone to grab dinner. I ordered Tikka masala and chicken briyanni. They give you the option if you want bone in or not which is nice. My order went through and I picked it up approx 25 min. Everything was a smooth transaction and they take COVID seriously as I saw them taking precautions and making sure customers were also following precautions. When I got home, they didn't get my naan order, but also didn't charge me for it and they accidentally gave me bone in vs no bone (which is what I asked for). I'll toss it up to maybe miscommunication? Either way, my food came out fresh and hot. It tasted great and fairly priced. I will definitely be ordering or coming again to eat.

All generously covered in butter with your preferred seasonings. A bib and gloves are provided. Be prepared to have a chin dripping with butter. Honestly I was happy this wasn't an upscale restaurant because I would have been embarrassed by my lack of etiquette as there's just no way to "properly" eat this meal. This is definitely a "dining experience" and Oh, so worth it!

The restaurant is really nice and upscale inside. It has super comfy chairs and booths and had a clean, modern aesthetic that suits the location really well. It's right next door to Aloft hotel in park place, and since my office is just across the street at Aspiria it was easy to find and the parking garage was super empty the night I went. My waiter was super helpful and had some really good recommendations as I have never been here before. There was a slight mixup in my order but I think it worked out for the better. So, all's well that ends well. The food was good. I didn't get what I ordered, but what I got was delicious. There was a special on the appetizer menu for fried oysters and French fries, but I got bbq oysters. The oysters were in the ballpark of chargrilled oysters you get in NOLA. Not exactly but similar enough, you know, butter, cheese, probably a little garlic and seasoning, very good. The oysters were tasty, although pretty expensive, and I only got 5. I don't know if this odd numbered food items is a KC thing or what but 6 please! I mean I can get a dozen in NOLA for just a couple dollars more. I know, I know, it's KC and we have to ship them in, but still. Since I didn't get the French fries I ordered the duck fat fries to go with my bbq oysters and they were good. You could really taste the duck fat, but it wasn't overpowering. The fries were crispy, but maybe a touch too much salt for my taste. All in all very good. I also splurged and got the waffle dumplings. They are veggie dumplings and were probably my favorite thing. Crispy and delicious. They are pressed and have the waffle pattern on them, hence the name. A lot of the menu is very Thai fusion, which makes sense, but be aware that it's not just a seafood place like the Bristol or Ocean Prime. Kinda pricey! My meal was $50 not including my drink, which was just a soda, so not the cheapest place in town, but I get it, this is the Midwest and seafood has to be shipped in to get it fresh and that ain't cheap. It was very good though, probably a 4.3 out of 5. A little less salt, one more oyster and I could definitely see this at a 4.8! Sorry no pics. I stupidly left my phone in the car, and I wasn't walking back to get it. Just imagine oysters and French fries in your head and you'll know what it looked like. Give it a try if you are in town, and get the waffle dumplings!

It is far better than the usual Tex Mex food. A few years ago, there was a Marisco (Spanish for seafood) restaurant in Lawrence, but unfortunately it closed. The seating is comfortable, the dining room attractive, the music enjoyable, the service excellent, and the food far better than the Mexican food we are accustomed to in Lawrence, although we are beginning to get Latin restaurants including South American food in Lawrence. The full bar options at Mariscos KC include an admirable list of nonalcoholic mocktails, but oddly no nonalcoholic beers, not even Corona NA beer. I got the iced tea which was provided with four slices of lime. I enjoyed it. We got the Ceviche Starter with both shrimp and fish. We enjoyed them, although either alone would have been fine. Next time we will probably get only the fish. We also got the Aguachiles Verdes (with green sauce), which was spicier than the Ceviche. We liked it a lot. Both the Ceviche and the Aguachiles come with crispy tostadas. You can spread the seafood on the tostadas or break up the tostadas and spread them on the seafood. We also got the Fish Filet with Shrimp, which were excellent. For dessert, I got the Churro Bites, which was provided in a surprisingly large serving. I had half of the dessert packed to go. Although the restaurant's specialties are Mexican seafood, there also are Italian and Cajun pasta options available. We will try them the next time we are there. If you arrive driving west from Kansas City on Shawnee Drive, continue passed the intersection with Interstate 35. You will then pass a main intersection with traffic light at Goddard Street. The next traffic light after Goddard is at Nieman Rd. Take a left onto Nieman Rd. heading south. The restaurant will be on the left (east) side of the street. We will be back --- for sure.
