Wanting to satisfy my Indo-Chinese food craving, I returned to Spicy Symphony. The Times Square was new to me, but not the food. I made a beeline for the chicken Manchurian. however, Rakesh, the manager, recommended the Chili Chicken instead since I was already acquaintanced with Indo-Chinese. The chili chicken tasted like a Sichuan person needed to stir fry chicken on the go and grabbed Indian spices instead. I mean this in the most flattering of terms. The chicken had the familiar (to me) soy sauce taste, but also sharper and more herbal flavors of Indian spices. It's a flavor profile I would like every Chinese person to try out. The dessert flan was also delectable. The texture was quite delicate, and the additional coconut added an irresistible flavor. read more

Came here for a quick dinner before a show, and the location is very convenient to the Belasco Theatre. We had previously been to the 50th Street location and loved their Indian-Chinese dishes, so we were excited to try them again. The Chili Chicken appetizer was spot-on, as was the Manchow Soup. We also really enjoyed the Hakka Noodles and Shrimp Curry. Everything was flavorful, well prepared, and served promptly. Since it was our anniversary, we were delighted to receive a flan on the house--a very nice touch! Great food, friendly service, and a convenient location. We'll definitely be back! read more

Service 10/10 We were a group of 8 eight with severe nut and seafood allergies. Our server was so patient in taking our orders and keeping in mind all the allergies. Restaurant is cute and decent size. Highly recommend reservations it does get busy. All the food was flavorful. Goan fish had the perfect amount of tamarind, garlic and chilli naan were freshly made. Chicken kebabs were not dry. Paneer tikka was spicy and yet tasty.bhel puri was blend and so was the samosas but still good. Biryani was the perfect portion for our table and goat curry was spot on. I would go back here when in NY. read more

Tasty, authentic, good portion sizes. Understandable Manhattan prices. Would definitely visit again. The host who greeted me for pick up of take out was very kind. The glimpse I saw of the restaurant was very nice -- romantic , mood-lit vibes. read more

Reservations are probably required for busy times but we were able to walk in at about 530pm on a weekday and half the restaurant was empty Took us a while to get seated because the manager was busy on the phone which was annoying. We ordered their Triple Szechwan and at first it came out cold and extremely spicy. So we requested that they remake it and owner made sure it came out correctly spiced and hot second time around. The flavors were really good (albeit lacking salt sometimes) so we'll be back to try their other North Indian dishes as well. read more

Our go to Indo Chinese spot! This time around though, we tried their Punjabi cuisine. Ordered Prawn Koliwada, Chicken Malwani Curry, and some Rotis. Good food overall.

Delicious ! Came here for lunch. The minute we walked in, the aromatic smell of spices overtook our senses and I immediately wanted to order everything. So much so that we ordered 3 naans and the nice gentleman said he'll start us off with 2 and then if we wanted more, we can order ! read more

In a city full of Chinese restaurants and Indian restaurants, it's fun to find a rare place that does both. Love the take on Chinese food for Indian sensibilities. Anything paneer will win me over! Chinese Bhel: A unique take on those crispy Indian snacks, this time with Chinese noodles. The texture was a bit too shattering for my tastes, but I appreciated the uniqueness. Gobi Manchurian Dry: A big hit with the table. Kinda amazing that the lowly cauliflower could taste so good. Even better than chicken at some lesser Chinese joints. Paneer Schezwan: So I love Indo-Chinese paneer dishes and the taste here was really good. However, I probably should have gotten the dry version since it felt too soupy for my liking. Hakka Noodles w/ Chicken: Lots of noodles and chicken with some light Indian/Chinese fusion flavors. Solid, but kinda wish it had more spices in the mix. read more

This place is beautifully set up and has the warmest lighting. We came in about 13 minutes before closing and were fortunate enough to still get a seat and order we just had to be quick. But the food was so good! We didn't expect it to be family style but each dish was steaming hot. My personal favorite was the Naan, it was buttery and had the perfect almost crunch from the bottom. But we ordered the lollipop chicken (pictured), the chicken triple Szechwan noodles and rice (pictured), and the lamb Rogan Josh (not pictured). It was delicious and I will definitely be back. read more

We did not have a reservation for 3, entered 4:15 pm. Wanted a quick meal before a show. And golly we picked the best spot. We were seated immediately. The place quickly filled in after we were seated. A quiet little restaurant. Not a ton of seating. Families were in there with young children but it was not loud at all. The staff was VERY attentive, our waters were never empty. Multiple people came to check on us. The food was fantastic and came out very quickly. The drink options were very different from any we've ever had but were delicious! I would come here before every show from now on. read more

This place is wonderful! The staff were all friendly, and service was quick. We ordered samosas for an appetizer which were cooked to perfection. The sauces that come with them were so fresh! We ordered some mixed drinks and they were not light on the alcohol! I ordered shrimp moilee which is a coconut based curry with shrimp. I had never had it before, but it sounded really good. It had a light spiciness to it but blew my expectations out of the water! I highly recommend if you want great Indian cuisine near Times Square/Broadway. The only downside was the bathroom was not the cleanest... but it is NYC and it's possible management was unaware of whomever used the bathroom before I did. All in all, 5 stars and I highly recommend! read more

My god, we love this place! The Indian food is absolutely spectacular. We've had the chicken tikka masala, the malwani curry, the vegetable korma, the butter chicken, chicken korma, and the naan; all of them were superb. The service is amazingly fast, your water glass is always refilled, and the ambiance is lovely. But I have to tell you an amazing story. We first visited in April 2026. My wife ribbed me for always ordering chicken tikka masala, so I asked the head waiter, Rakesh, what he'd recommend as something more adventurous. He suggested the malwani curry. It was fantastic. So when we visited again in June, I ordered the same thing--and started telling Rakesh that it was because of his suggestion. But before I could finish, he said--"Yes. I remember. You always used to get tikka masala, so you asked me for a suggestion. You sat at that table right there. It was two months ago." HOW COULD HE POSSIBLY HAVE REMEMBERED? I was boggled. I asked him how he did that--he said he just remembers everyone!! Incredible. This place is fantastic, and it's right there in the Broadway district--the perfect place to go before a show. read more

My favorite Indian restaurant I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot. We've walked by this place for years and finally decided to try it and wow.... we'd been missing out! Service is speedy, food is excellent, favorites are the garlic naan and chicken tikka masala. There was even a time we asked for something not on the menu and they were able to accommodate. An excellent place to go if you ever find yourself near the cesspool of Times Square, would highly HIGHLY recommend! read more

Decided to try it. Both dishes tasteless. Lamb was chewy and the veg korma had no flavor whatsoever. I typically don't tell the waiter how bad the food is as your always taking risks when trying a new place. Well this was so small portion and so lacking in flavor that upon asking if it's good I kindly and accurately replied absolutely not. She didn't bother to address it as they know the place is trash. Restaurants on restaurant row are historically bad in midtown but as a person who wishes every business to succeed , I am not in favor of this success and the reviews are all fraudulent and paid that say otherwise. This can not be redeemed. read more

Was looking for a place to grab a drink a quick bite before heading over to Radio City Music Hall. As we were walking along we passed this place and wanted to try it. The interior was lovely, warm and welcoming and we decided to sit at the bar. We ordered drinks.. I got this amazing masala salt with vodka and citronberry juice (I'm sorry, I can't remember the name) and it was one of the most interesting, tasty drinks I've ever had. Monica provided us with mini breadsticks and a chutney for a quick bite before our appetizers came. My husband ordered the tandoori wings and I had the mushrooms. OMG what a burst of flavor. Typically, you get the same curry flavors with Indian food but this was elevated. I'm only sorry we couldn't stay longer and eat dinner but it is definitely on my list to go back to. read more

My boyfriend and I dined at Spice Symphony in Times Square and was thoroughly impressed with the experience. We started with the chicken lollipops, which were an absolute 10 out of 10. The exterior was perfectly crunchy, while the inside remained deliciously moist. The flavor burst when you start chewing, and the accompanying sauce elevated the dish even further. For drinks, I had the Taste of India, which was deliciously sweet and refreshing. My boyfriend tried the Konan Coast and found it to be on the sweeter side but well-balanced. However, he wasn't a fan of the black rock salt rim--definitely an acquired taste--but once he wiped it off, he really enjoyed the drink. For my entrée, I opted for the Lamb Rajeseani and Goat Laal Maas. Both dishes were fantastic. The goat, which had bone-in meat, had a deeper, more intense flavor profile, enhanced by a subtle grilled or charcoal taste. The lamb was also tender and flavorful, without any bones. The cheese naan was another highlight, though it had more cheese than I'm used to. It almost reminded me of a grilled cheese flatbread, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, Spice Symphony is a great spot for anyone looking to enjoy delicious Indian cuisine with a modern twist. The combination of flavors and textures in each dish makes it a memorable dining experience. they also mix in Chinese food as well. read more

Wow, this place was so good. I actually don't consider Indian food my favorite genre, but I have to rave about this place. To keep this brief - everything I ate was packed with delicious flavor. Shrimp for appetizer was incredibly delicious, the hot and sour soup to tackle the Chinese side of the menu was way better than expected, and the Sea Bass was plentiful and mouth-watering. And despite all the packed flavor and various strong spices, I did not have digestive problems afterwards. The ambiance was classy and service was great. I highly recommend this place if you're in Manhattan and in the mood for Indian/Chinese. I would definitely go back. read more

We were in NYC for a few days on our way to Europe. We stayed in midtown hotel. Spice symphony was down the street from our hotel and we decided to give it a try. Great bustling restaurant with warm and inviting ambiance. We got seated right away. We ordered a few entrees for 4 of us and shared all the entrees. Food was on spot with great taste and flavors. All was hot and sizzling fresh. Our server was also very good and patient with us. We will come back to this place again read more

Wandering in and out of Time Square restaurants without a reservation on a Saturday night. No luck . We were ready to get slices to go when we stepped into Spice Symphony. The manager, Rakesh, promised at least two seats at the bar, but after a 15 minute wait he arranged for us to sit a table. His hospitality and generosity continued with two appetizers on the house; a tower of Bombay Bhel Puri and chili chicken dry. The tower featured crispy puffed rice, cilantro, mint, onions and tamarind chutney. A balance of spice, sweetness, crisp and crunch, this homage to beachside street food is an overlooked favorite. The Indo-Chinese chili chicken had a moderate level of spice. Sautéed with onions and green peppers and a background of soy sauce, this dish was a perfect appetizer. My wife enjoyed the chicken tikka masala, tender and moist and accompanied by a bowl of warm basmati rice. Rakesh recommended I order the goat rajasthani lal Maas, a tasty and smoky stewed goat in a creamy sauce similar to curry but with every Indian spice from the cupboard. Sweet saffron and ginger garlic paste rounded out the complex flavors. A real winner on the menu! The choice of garlic naan was perfect for the dishes, but really any naan would be just right. The meal was an experience that was highlighted by the generosity and kindness of Rakesh and the professionalism of the staff. Spice Symphony has other locations in Manhattan. read more

We loved the drinks so much! Highly recommend the one with kaccha aam & kokam. It was extremely busy, so I think they forgot to give us our food & the server gave us one more round of drinks. No complaints ! For food we had gotten gobi Manchurian & eggplant dish with coconut & I've never had anything like that before. It was amazing! Just couldn't finish it because we were stuffed! read more

Visited here after a long day of walking around the city. It's a really cute little restaurant close to a bunch of tourist attractions. The chicken lollipop was delicious and the sauce that came with it was also really good. The chicken Manchurian and Chicken noodles were also great, but the portions were a little small for the price. The rice that came with the Manchurian was pretty dry. I strongly recommend the chicken lollipop though! read more

The place that I had initially wanted to try was not open until much later and Spice Symphony had been on my mind to try so I went there. I was seated immediately and water was brought to the table. It is a nice sized space, with a bar in the center of the room which had several patrons in deep conversation. The restroom, which I visited when I arrived was clean and orderly. I was given a menu but the restaurant is dark and there was not much overhead lighting. I had to get my phone out-votive candles on each table would help with this. After overcoming the lighting/menu problem, I decided on the chicken tikka masala and I got onion kulcha to go along with the meal. I began to occupy myself with my phone and before I knew it, my meal had arrived. The chicken tikka masala and the onion kulcha were steaming hot and this came along with a small vat of fluffy seasoned rice. The meal was excellent and there were multiple pieces of chicken-it was a substantial sized meal. It was very tasty and thoroughly filling. When asked about desert, I abstained since I usually do not do appetizers or deserts. The staff was pleasant, Rohit was my server. Pricewise, it is comprable to other restaurants in the area. I would recommend and return. read more

SERVICE We felt like they were in such a hurry for us to leave right from the get-go. Once we sat down, they barely gave us any time to read the menu. Then, once we took even one or two sips of water they come to refill. I understand and have experienced lots of great service, but great service doesn't consist of constant hovering and walking over every 2 minutes while the customers are having a meal. Even while we were finishing up the meal they were ready to take the plates away to bring the bill. Overall made us feel uncomfortable. FOOD Now the food (as someone who specializes in Indian food) is a 5/10. The gravy in our dishes were done wrong, barely few pieces of paneer, and tasted canned. If you've okay with subpar Indian food or don't have an acquired taste for it, you may be okay in this department. However, the place has a nice ambiance and is clean. Overall: I do not recommended, take your money elsewhere. read more

Amazing Indo-chinese food in NYC. I went with two families (8 people). We did not have reservations but they were able to accommodate us with 30min wait. Chicken Hakka Noodles, Chicken Manchurian (dry) and Chilli Chicken were very very authentic indo-chinese style. The Sea Bass was spicy but very creamy. Probably should not have ordered it. Overall very good place to grab Indian food in Times Square area. read more
