We were very disappointed in our visit to Spice Street Saturday night, January 11. We'd been there many times before and thought it was great. But this time, on a very cold night, even with reservations, they seated us at, what our waiter later admitted, was the worst table. It was so cold in that section that even with 3 layers on, we still had to wear our down coats and scarves. The food took an hour to arrive and we then had to eat in a hurry because we already had tickets to a movie. When I complained to our waiter, he said we will give you a free dessert next time. We are not ever coming back so there will be no next time. The time to make things right was immediately, not later when I am no longer interested in coming back to sit for an hour in an ice cold section of the restaurant. read more

Spice Street - Indian Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

The memorable part of my experience here was the great service. Our waiter was very attentive and checking in to see if we needed anything. It is a nice clean restaurant inside with plenty of seating. I enjoyed starting off the meal with pani puri and Palak chaat. For our entrees, we feasted on their delicious garlic naan and chicken tikka masala. We ended our experience with falooda, which is one of my favorite Indian desserts. I highly recommend you order it if you have never tried it! read more

Some of the best Indian food I've had in the DC area. The chats are to die for, and the other appetizers and entrees are stellar.

I was super excited to go here just by looking at their menu. Pani Puri and Pav Bhaji attracted me but I was thoroughly disappointed. My main reason for the two star is as below. - Pani Puri was stale and had no crisp to it. The potato chana filling was overly salty, and very very cold along with the cold puri. The two flavored waters were decent. Overall this started it on a bad note because we picked this place just to get some pani puri; wife was craving it. - Pav bhaji just tasted weird. Not sure if they used canned tomato/paste or just missing critical spices, but it was not a true representation of a classic Bombay Pav Bhaji. Then the pav themselves were old and hard as a rock. You would want pav to be buttered and warmed with the inside and outside crisped but still fully soft. Our Pav were totally hard as a brick and we couldn't even feed it to my toddler. - Brussel Sprouts Chaat was the only highlight of the meal for me as they were crispy and freshly fried with balanced chaat flavors and chutneys. - Paneer Tikka appetizer was good with one exception, only three cubes of paneer. For that price I expected to have five pieces at least. But this was an overall theme. - Shahi Paneer was extremely mild, bland, and little more watery gravy than I would like. Mixing it with rice, felt slightly like mixing spiced water with rice. - Garlic cheese naan was good except not that much cheese. In fact, I couldn't tell if it was just regular garlic naan. But at least the flavor and softness was on point. - Drinks were good. Kuchumbar cooler was refreshing, Virgin Mohito wasn't overly citrusy, and Mango Lassi was good on portion size. - Customer service was good. No complaints there. I had a reservation and had asked for a high chair and they accommodated as expected. There was May be one more table during my visit so there was enough time for the kitchen to perfect my dinner but with the lack of overall flavors, stale food, and small portions, I have to give this two stars. Two stars are earned from the good drinks that I tasted and the great server we had. read more

We were very excited to have an Indian restaurant near us. Went there and tried a few different appetizers and a couple of drinks. The food wasn't as good as we expected. The Bombay Sandwich was a favorite, but was too oily for us. Weren't huge fans of chole bhature or the cauliflower as they were just okay tasting. The wings were flavorful, but again too oily. Their service was great - the lady helping us with our order was so nice! Their drinks were also good - highly recommend trying them! read more

We had a big party tucked in a very comfortable nook. Everything was delicious - outstanding service with Veer from the moment we walked in the door to our last bite. Can't wait for our next visit. See you soon. read more

Dinner was amazing! Our server Veer was so nice and helpful, would love to come back!!

We came for dinner on a Monday night, and it wasn't busy at all. We were seated at a booth, and the ambiance was so beautiful -- the dimmed lights and candle makes the place perfect for a date night. We ordered the chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, and lamb biryani. Everything was so delicious, and it was very filling for our table of two. I loved the white sauce that came with the lamb biryani! The server was also very kind. When we weren't sure of what to order and had questions about the menu, he was very patient and knowledgeable. Overall, solid Indian food! read more

The COVID guidelines and service were all top notch! The venue is decorated really nicely- it's got a modern feel with an Indian twist. That same vibe with the decor continues throughout the menu with the food options!!! Yumm, yumm, yumm!!! The food was delicious... With some traditional dishes and some fusion. I will definitely be back to sample more from the menu. read more

Wonderful new addition to the neighborhood and friendly staff. We even got free naan. I'm giving four stars (almost five) because I have high hopes for this spot in downtown Silver Spring. I like the swanky and industrial interior - this makes me hopeful for the post COVID world where I can bring visitors here for a large meal or light snack. There are plenty of options for all diets and preferences. Opening night was a bit rough - it seemed like all of Silver Spring was waiting inside Spice Street for their take out order. They were super busy (which is both good and bad). The staff was patient and tried their best to please everyone. We ended up waiting over an hour, however in all fairness they tried to call me around the time my order would have been ready for pick up. I was already walking over and should have anticipated a wait but did not hear the call. Perhaps there can be some sort of text update added for when the food is ready for pick up. The food was good, but there's always room for improvement. We got the eggplant chat, mushroom malai, paneer kati roll, kalimirch tikka, and manchurian. The egglpant chaat and kalimirch tikka (chicken cubes with black peppers) were good, but not our favorite. I was expecting the eggplant chat to be a bit crispier, like other chaat I've had before. The food was a bit oily, but I still enjoyed the manchurian, kati roll and mushroom curry. I recommend it and I'd get it again. Looking forward to next time when I can try the pani puri and pav bhajji. Just a note on the menu - the "v" is for vegan, but there are other dishes that are vegetarian if you eat cheese that I enjoyed such as the paneer kati roll. read more

I came here for a birthday celebration and our group was all very impressed. Beautiful decor, beautiful music, friendly and prompt service, and really delicious high quality food. Favorite appetizers were the PALAK AUR KHAJOOR KI CHAT and the LASOONI GOBI. The entrees were all delicious, I sampled some of everyone's dishes. They brought us a complementary dessert for the birthday person, I think it was the GULAB JAMUN--it was delicious. Parking was easy, there is a public lot just past the restaurant and to the right. read more

Had a lovely Father's Day dinner here. Recommendations were excellent. Service was welcoming and attentive in a relaxing atmosphere. Thanks Veer!! read more

Great spot for date night and girls night! Great prices for bottles of wine and even better food! Tikka masala was great and lamb curry looked good as well! Naan was soooo freshhhh and amazing. The kheer was great topped with pistachios and the cardamom was great (I would ask for it a little warmed it will be even better! We Will be back! read more

Best Indian food I've had in the DMV area. We got the Bhathi Wali wings to start. I got the lamb vindaloo and my wife got the butter chicken, with sides of garlic naan of course. Everything was fantastic, the meat was tender and the lamb was not game-y at all. Everything was spiced very well and not overly greasy or oily as it can be at other restaurants. I would highly recommend Spice Street to anyone craving Indian food. I think it beat out all the other spots I've been to in Gaithersburg/Rockville by a mile. read more

Always delicious, spicy enough without overwhelming the senses. Portion sizes are good, too.

Lamb biryani was kind of dry, not much spice and no yogurt sauce was given. I wanted to smell the strong spices when I removed the lid from my food;but it didn't happen. read more

Excellent. I feel a little guilty writing a review on take out but I'm in town visiting in laws and going to the restaurant wasn't in the cards. Everything was delivered piping hot and absolutely delicious. I won't into boring details here on everything, however we ordered several starters / appetizers and entrees and everything was spot on perfect and among the best I've had anywhere. All the reviews (which is how I found this place) are right. Amazing spot in Silver Spring and probably the best food I've had here in my many visits. Will definitely come back next time. read more

As someone with high standards for Indian and Punjabi food I very much appreciated Spice Street! Food - the food was excellent. We ordered the eggplant chat which was perfectly crispy and the sauce didn't make it soggy, the lasooni gobi which was wonderfully seasoned both the cauliflower filling and the sauce wasn't too overwhelmingly garlicky, the chole bhatura, shahi paneer, garlic naan and lacha paratha. The chole bhatura and shahi paneer we ordered as medium spicy and it lived it. It was the perfect level of spice. Both were very flavorful. The bhatura was fried perfectly. The only comment I will make is that one piece of the garlic naan was a little undercooked and they weren't able to accommodate adjustments including making a chili naan. We ordered rose Falooda for dessert which was wonderful; the ice cream base was like kulfi with nuts and was delicious. We had enough for 2 meals worth leftovers so ample serving size too. Well worth the price. Staff - the staff was very attentive and refilled our water without being asked, they answered questions about the dishes and gave recommendations since it was our first time here. Ambience - very cute, well kept, seating near the window is a plus! Overall - would definitely come back! Perfect after a late day of work or cold day! read more

This place was mediocre at best. We got a few things to go and we were so disappointed by the portion sizes!! They were so small for how much we paid, incredibly overpriced. The samosa chaat was so bland - normally, samosa chaat is supposed to have a few different toppings (yogurt, tamarind/mint chutney, red onions, cilantro etc.)....it barely had any of the toppings. It was just a mashed up samosa with some chickpeas. We also got the pani puris, which was very bland. The puris were so stale and not crunchy at all. The liquids were lacking flavor. The tandoori wings were okay..but again, 4 small wings for $8! Mango lassi was decent - but it's hard to mess up mango lassi. Pretty disappointed :( read more

We really enjoy ordering takeout from here and occasionally dine in as well. The food is consistently good and it's always ready quickly.

I have ordered delivery from Spice Street twice and eaten in once. For a business named Spice Street I find most dishes lacking in flavor. Both times I ordered delivery the portions were small, cold, and late. My delivery today included Palak Aur Kajoor Ki Chat, naan, and Gulab Jamun along with a Lamb Korma entree - for an entree at $18, the rice only filled the container 2/3 of the way and the entree was in the same size container! What a rip off. I also received more cutlery than I did food... My in person experience I had a Thali which included several tastings of entrees and a dessert. I agree with my previous statement that the meal was sub-par. The flavors are reminiscent of that of a food court. Overall I'm disappointed and will not order from Spice Street again. read more

Being stuck at Holy Cross Hospital for awhile, we were over the hospital food. I wanted something delicious and decent to eat. Spice Street saved the day! I've tried a few Indian spots and this one is definitely one of my new favorites! The naan and garlic naan is probably some of the best naan I've had. Very soft and well flavored. I also tried the palak tofu and palak chickpea dish (I might have the names wrong). Both were delicious. Definitely will keep this place in mind next time I'm in Silver Spring. read more

Amazing Indian food! We came in Easter Sunday for lunch. Ended up eating the lunch special. We all chose the chicken curry, lamb korma and either channa, spinach or mushroom with garlic Naan and rice. Woooo! Everything was SOOO FLAVORFUL!! The lamb was really soft and moist and seasoned perfectly. The chicken curry was perfect and tender as well. And the Garlic Naan was the best I've had in the DMV area!! Mann this place is good. My husband had the mango lassi and it was perfectly balanced between the mango and yogurt. The gulab jamun was great as well. Ambiance and service were on point. We'll be coming back for dinner! read more

Delicious food, lovely restaurant, and friendly waitstaff. Highly recommend for Indian food and dining ambiance.

My husband and I have enjoyed Spice Street for several dinner 'date nights!' We always receive impeccable service, and the food is authentic. My husband's favorite is the Vindaloo, and he says it's the best Vindaloo he's ever had! The portions are big, and we're happy to bring home leftovers. I usually order off the appetizer menu, and I still have leftovers! One of my favorite things, among others, is the green sauce that they provide with the naan. I've been trying to recreate it and I just haven't matched theirs yet. The ambiance is nice; they have really interesting art and objects d'Art that add to the ambiance. Every time we've been for dinner, it's busy, but never had to wait; they have a second level so they can accommodate more customers than it initially appears. Definitely check out Spice Street in downtown Silver Spring!! read more

Found a new favorite Indian Restaurant! Everything was so tasty. Got the salmon and shrimp in the tandoori oven and salmon was so tender. The chicken vindaloo was spicy as advertised boy not crazy spicy. But ... the green sauce on the side that came with the salmon was hot enough to make you sweat. I thought the Brussel sprouts were yummy as well as the garlic naan. We will be back. read more

We've visited this place twice and it impressed both times. They'll definitely see me again for lunch, the thali plate was everything I needed. The service was fast and friendly, you'll be greeted with a smile at all times . Highly recommend you give this place a try. read more

Spice Street - Chicken Curry Lamb Korma Mushroom Mattar - Lunch Thali - Indian Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Actual rating is about a 3.5 but rounding up for nice "date night" ambience and really good palak chaat. We're quickly finding out that as a whole, people in MD have no spice tolerance and the restaurants are catering to that. Almost every Indian and Thai restaurant we've been to has had no detectable heat to any of their dishes (even when labeled "medium spicy"), and Spice Street was no exception to this trend. I'm not exactly one of those "I will suck down this bottle of hot sauce to prove my manliness types" especially given total absence of Y chromosomes, but I've found that you have to have SOME heat to your curry for it to have full flavor. A former chef explained it by saying most places pre-mix the spices for each dish, so if you say you want less heat - you get less of ALL the spices and ergo less flavor. Well, here, they didn't ask how spicy we wanted it, and boy was it not spicy. We ordered the chicken korma (usually not super spicy anyway) and lamb methiwala. The chicken korma was very sweet and creamy, but not spicy. The lamb methiwala had so much potential in its flavor profile but just not enough intensity. I was hoping that by taking home the leftovers and letting them marry, they'd build up a bit - but the next day they tasted roughly the same. I had them along side a homemade lamb & goat curry that had so much more "oomph" to it....sigh. For drinks, I had a rose lassi. I am a *sucker* for rose. The lassi was pink, but I could barely taste the rose. I think the yogurt just overwhelmed it. Hubby had a cocktail, I forgot which one, and he really liked it. Overall, the palak chaat was the winner - it wasn't spicy either, but didn't need to be with the dates and the tamarind paste giving it flavor and the flash-fried spinach giving it crunch. If we come back, I'm going to ask for the curries to be spicier and see if that helps. Both of them had potential but just seemed a little washed out compared to what they could have been. Subtle is good for innuendo but I like my curries strong, like my coffee and my personality! read more

My fiancé live in the other Solaire building at 1150 Ripley and we're excited to see a new restaurant at the new building. We were hoping it would be open around election night to honor Biden/Harris but it was not open yet. However, it did open just in time for inauguration and we got their delicious food then. We ordered another time since and then went in person about a week ago when my dad was in town. To drink my fiancé and I had a mango lassi. To eat we shared curry naan, an apple mango chat, a salmon dish, and a lamb dish. I don't remember the exact ones and the menu is different online but everything we've had here is amazing! I'd certainly recommend eating, doing carry out, or delivery from here. We look forward to returning and trying other menu items. read more

Spice Street - Lamb and salmon dishes - Indian Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

I'm so glad to have found this spot in silver spring! My thali was delicious and I will be making my way back on different days of the week to try their variations. Each dish was flavorful and fresh, I was especially pleasantly surprised by the mushroom matar. The mushrooms were cooked to perfection! I also really enjoyed my lachha paratha. It's the first one I've had since returning from Lucknow and it didn't disappoint! It was perfectly flaky (not greasy) and savory. The service was also excellent. The waiters were kind and attentive and the restaurant has a comfortable, evening atmosphere...plush booths and dimmed lighting, would be good for those looking for a date night spot. I'll happily make the track from NW DC to enjoy this meal close to the Silver Spring station! read more

I was super excited to try this place and had been eagerly awaiting the opening since they had the sign up. Overall thought the food was super tasty. The bread was a bit hard to tell apart. I don't know if I had ever had Kulcha before and was having a hard time figuring out which was which. Also unsure of the sauces, but they were tasty! Wait time was long though. We put our order in online and they gave us a window of time to come pick it up at. Went during that window and had to wait an additional almost 40 minutes. Seems like they were pretty backed up on orders. The menu was so big - I'm sure we'll be back to try more! Parking at night for pick up is a bit of a pain. There are only two spots in front, most people seem to just double park with their flashers on...but if you have to wait super long that's not the best option. The paint store parking lot is closed at night, BUT! There are two spots right in front of the paint store doors on the street off Georgia. Not sure if it's okay to park there, but for pick up it seemed to be okay. read more

Had carry out from Spice Street several times. The food was generally good until we got the Salmon and Shrimp Tandoori($28). My friend said the salmon was good but the shrimp was so salty, it was inedible. I agreed. It was caked in seasoning. It was washed fed to the dog. I informed them via email, no reply. We should have at least received an apology. read more

Great chicken wings, rice and naan. The Tumeric drink was great as well. The other Indian dishes tasted less authentic and not as flavorful but tat could be because the chef is newer and from South America not Indian. He still makes great tandoori so don't let that stop you from going in. Nice kids serving who were helpful and attentive. read more

I'm not sure if it's because I'm not from this area but this was bad. I got Ali Samosa and Tandoori chicken for carry out. The sauce around the samosa ruins the samosa itself. I've have had Tandoori chicken from multiple Indian / Lebanese spots. This the first place that their Tandoori chicken is not memorable. Then to top it off the carry out portion sizes were extremely small. Even for a regular portion size the price does not match their quality. The only decent thing is their service. It may have been an off day but I'm not recommending this spot to anyone. read more
