The Spice Garden offers amazing authentic Indo-Chinese Cuisine food. Upon entering you get hit with a strong pleasant aromatic immediately knowing the food will be flavorful. The food was presented well and colored with seasoning. Highly recommend the Mongolian Beef and Cumin Lamb. Ambiance is spacious, modern, and set at low light to have a comfortable, friendly, and intimidate experience. The service was present, quick, and nice. Provided answers to questions and necessities quickly. Must try at least once! read more

Myself and my hungry group of friends came to this establishment on Eid so it was absolutely packed! We were hungry and ordered a little bit of everything family style. We were able to satisfy our hunger! At some point everything started to taste the same and it was hard to appreciate individual flavors of the food. The cheese naan was absolutely amazing and that was first to go. Service was on the slower side and waiter did not come to check up on us and if we needed water. read more

Tried it on the recommendation of our friends, and it turned out to be really great! Ambiance was good . Not crowded on a weekday lunchtime, and our server Nawal was awesome. She checked in with us time to time , and made sure that our order was perfect! Just a feedback that we couldn't taste any diff between the Manchurian and Hakka chilli chicken entree sauces. Overall it's a nice Indo Chinese food place in the area! read more

Ever since I moved to the US, finding an authentic street-style Indo-Chinese has been hot or a miss. It was easy to find one in the Bay area or NYC but in Austin I was always left with disappointment until I got recommended to The Spice Garden. Arrived here on a Saturday night and I should say the exteriors and the interior and the ambiance were really worked into. It wasn't your regular Indian restaurant. It reminded me of entering a large PF Changs. There wasn't a wait time when we arrived but got really crowded post 8pm. Got our seats and service was prompt and quick. Such an easy to handle and elaborate menu. My order: Veggie dumpling Chinese bhel Chilli garlic noodles Gobi Manchurian Veggie dumpling was amazing. Well steam and filling was well cooked but the side was so spicy but still tasty. Wish they served more than just 3 pieces. The Chinese bhel was such a disappointment. It wasn't fresh and it smelled bad. The taste was towards the sweeter end. Would never recommend it. The Chilli garlic noodle and Gobi Manchurian stole the show. They were just perfect including the texture, taste and spice level. I could just eat the Manchurian directly as a main dish. The quantity is so large and the price is on the expensive side. This restaurant can be a frequent destination. read more

This restaurant serves some delicious noodles and softest naan I had by far in ATX. The Indian entrees have unique taste than your usual palak paneer, dal and butter paneer. Ample parking in front of the restaurant. We went here twice in a week bcoz our kid devours their veg hakka noodles. Really enjoyed their corn soup. Between both orders we got palak paneer, hakka noodles, sweet corn soup, butter paneer and garlic naan. read more

First time eating here was Easter 2026. I was pretty anxious about the food because I don't eat spicy food, but I was able to find some things to enjoy! We started with chicken lollipops and cheese naan; so delicious. The chicken is well seasoned and the naan was so cheesy and soft. My boyfriend ordered general tso chicken and I ordered mixed Lomein. Everything was hot and fresh, and seasoned so well!! The restaurant itself is incredibly clean and the decor is nice. Very open and spacious. Staff was decently friendly. read more

Gobhi Manchurian Soggy and the flavor is mid. Server asked me if I wanted it dry or sauced so I asked if I could have a cup of sauce on the side... he said no that's not possible bc it's already tossed in sauce lol Like... what?! Mmk. Anywho, they done have bullet naan. We got garlic instead and it was soft but bland. We ordered this and tandoori chicken with a side of Raita and a mango lassi. $60 Needless to say never coming back :( read more

How have I not found this place before now? Friends suggested we eat there for lunch. The experience was wonderful. The ambiance was inviting, and the servers were friendly. Food came out quickly, and it was delicious. I had the Mongolian Beef, chicken fried rice, and hot-n-sour soup. The soup was rich and had a kick to it. Portions were large. I ate half of mine and have the rest for lunch tomorrow. Next time I look forward to trying one of the Indian dishes. I consider this place a hidden gem. read more

I ordered from this location via the Yelp app on July 19th and 'yikes' is the only word that only way to explain what I received. Shrimp Tom Yum- For those who are living under a rock, Tom yum is a type of Thai hot and sour soup where the iconic flavors come from 3 herbs: lemongrass, galangal, and makrut (kaffir) lime leaves. This soup had an extra ingredient in it (a human hair), so in the trash it went. In addition, the small shrimp in this dish weren't deveined. While it's safe to eat shrimp that aren't deveined, some people prefer (like me) it be removed because it can be gritty in certain preparations and can also contain some grit from the shrimp's bottom-feeding habits. Chicken Lollipop A chicken lollipop is a fried chicken appetizer popular in India, often served at Indo-Chinese restaurants. The dish features trimmed, marinated chicken wings that get deep-fried and coated in a spicy Szechuan sauce. The name "chicken lollipop" is a nod to how the chicken wings look after trimming. While this is normally an appetizer I enjoy, this time around I did not. Why? The chicken for this dish was hard and dried out. Mongolian Beef- The beef for this dish was gamie (not in a good way). Gaminess isn't necessarily a bad thing. When eating exotic or wild meats, gamie can potentially mean a higher quality of meat, not filled with antibiotics or genetically-modified grains. The meat was gamey in the way that seems like it ready to turn. Chinese Bhel Chinese bhel is made out of crispy fried noodles tossed in an Indo Chinese sauce along with fresh crunchy veggies and herbs like scallions and cilantro. This was the only slavagable thing I ordered. I guess thats because its impossible to fumble a punt. This was $102.84 blown! read more

Stopped by for dinner to check this place out. The price on the menu is pretty pricy and portion is quite big. We ordered paneer pakora and chilli chicken as I have liked chilli chicken and wanted to see if anyone could beat one of the place we love to go. Here chilli chicken comes in different style so we tried it and it was ok. Not impressing or anything. The fried paneer was good. We asked the server to have our food comes out all at the same time but what came out first was veggie pakora and we didn't except it. However someone stepped up and said they would fixed it and we again made sure that we want it all at the same time. At time of pay, our server was giving us the check and mentioned that he repeated the order twice ... which kinda put us in an at fault for not listening and correcting him? To me it was kind of rude. That kinda put my whole experience down to 1-2 stars. But because the other server or manager step up and try to make it right, I leave it at 3. The decor was nice. More up scale. I would say I wont be coming back. Not the type I like. read more

This is a great option to sit down and eat or takeout! The inside is well decorated and clean and the service is kind.

I love that they have so many vegetarian options!! I ordered my food to go. First was the veggie dumplings. I got one order steamed and the other Szechwan. - both of them I give a 10/10 on flavor . The rider of 3 is $8 and the dumplings are the size of a golf ball. I think maybe a 4th dumpling would be appropriate but I would order again forsure! I got the garlic Naan which was very flavorful and perfect texture. Last I had the Gobhi Manchurian which was fried cauliflower in a brown chili type sauce. This is why I took one star off. The cauliflower was not seasoned whatsoever ever and quite greasy. The sauce however was delicious- I ordered it medium and I probably could have gone for the next level up as far as spice goes. The sauce was great to dip the naan. read more

Nut allergy friendly: Let your server know but there were no nuts in anything we tried. Order - to - Entree: 15-20 Minutes I placed a reservation for 7 on a Wednesday evening at 7:45 PM, which didn't seem needed because the restaurant was pretty empty. Dishes I tried: Kasmiri Lamb Rogan Josh (4/5): Effectively a slightly sweeter Lamb Curry with saffron flavors. I liked it better than the regular lamb Curry. Lamb Curry (3.5/5): Nothing special, not too spicy. Nice that it came with rice. Chicken 65 Fried Rice (1.5/5): Barely any chicken for what it is. Wouldn't recommend. Mongolian Beef (4/5): Solid, not spicy. Garlic Naan: Only came with two pieces for order, which is very little for the price in my opinion. Portions were decent. I'd say one dish can be lightly shared with 2-4 people, or comfortably filling for one person. They do have a buy one get one discount entree at certain hours. read more

Where has this place been? I often shy away from fushion places mostly because it's hard to find one that does both cuisines justice. However, I think I found one that wasn't only tasty, but the staff is top notch, and to boot, all the meat is Halal if that is a concern. Atmosphere: clean contemporary and minimalistic. Extremely good Feng Shui of the tables. Good spacing and nice placement of items in room. The Staff: super concerned with your experience and if you are enjoying your time and food. The Food: oh my, try the following 1.) Paneer Pakoda - perfectly breaded cheese bites without the guilt of a Mozzarella cheese stick. the Dipping sauce is addictive( yogurt based chutney-like the new Tartar-special sauce) 2.) Fried Fish- simply clean and health season just right. Again the sauce! 3.) Samosa- I am very picky about my Samosas- This one is very good and not too much ginger like most people due. 4.) The Singapore Noodles- So I am mixed- it tasted good, but not enough of the yummy curry oil was you seek. The ingredients are there. But as a Szechuan lover this one was the most underwhelming. However it does carry the taste of traditional noodles. Good job with the wok flavoring too. You can taste it. 5.) Butter Chicken- Yea order this. 6.) Mongolian Beef- This may be a contender for one of the best flavored Mongolian Beef's in Austin. read more

A 3-Year-Old's Plea: Dear Spicy Garden, Please Don't Count Me as an Adult Hi... I'm just 3 years old. I can barely finish my kids meal... I hold crayons more than cutlery... and I still need help climbing into my chair. Today I went to Spicy Garden in Austin with my family -- 4 adults and me. My parents are regular customers there. They've taken me many times, and I've always sat quietly, doing my toddler things. Their menu says: "Gratuity applied for parties of 5 and above." Okay... but I didn't know I was the "fifth." I didn't know being a baby means I suddenly became an adult on the bill. But that's what happened. They counted me, a little 3-year-old, as an adult just so they could charge 18% gratuity. I'm tiny. I don't order a full meal. I don't take up server time. I barely know how to hold a spoon properly. Why did they count me? But here's what I heard the grown-ups say: In Austin, gratuity is usually for 6 adults Sometimes for 5 adults But never--ever--little kids like me That's how restaurants normally work. They don't make toddlers "adults" just to add extra money. When my parents politely asked why, the owner said: "We've been in business 10 years. It is my wish." His wish? To count me -- a baby -- as a grown-up? To charge my parents more... because of me? That felt very mean. I'm just learning how to talk. I'm still learning my ABCs. I didn't think I had to learn about unfair restaurant bills at age 3. Please understand: Counting toddlers as adults is not fair Families don't deserve rude answers And little kids shouldn't be used to force extra gratuity I may be small. But this felt big. Big enough that even I understood it wasn't right. All I ask is... Please show mercy to little kids like me. Don't count us as adults. Be fair. Be kind. That's all a 3-year-old wants. read more

The Spice Garden offers fusion Indian and Chinese food that has big menu. All of your favorite Chinese and Indian from butter chicken to Mongolia beef. A relaxed vibe to the place where we were able to get seated right away on a Thursday night. There is a nice mix of veggie and non veggie options on the menu. I got an order of the chicken dumplings and lamb curry. Both were really delicious. The lamb curry had very delicious spices to the dish. My one complaint was the food was a little pricey for the amount that you got. Overall I really did enjoy this spot and hope to go back again to try some other dishes. read more

Always a little nervous when an "Asian" restaurant offers multiple types of Asian cuisines so I wasn't sure about the Thai curries, but Indo-Chinese food is a very real thing and it can be very, very good! In this case though I was craving a spicy biryani and this place delivered. It was honestly delicious- the rice was fluffy, lamb was tender, spice level perfect, served with lime, purple onions, raita and a boiled egg. Will be trying more dishes for sure. read more

My valentine wanted Chinese food for lunch today so I asked Google for the highest rated Chinese restaurant in the Round Rock area and it came back with the Spice Garden. The Spice Garden is listed as an Indo-Chinese restaurant so it offers both Indian and Chinese entrées. It opens at 11:30 and we were the first customers of the day. It's a very nice restaurant but very dark so bring a flashlight if you want to read the menu. They have lunch specials in both Chinese and Indian food. We ordered the Manchurian chicken and the Mongolian beef, both with egg drop soup, egg rolls, and basmati rice. Egg drop soup was the best I've ever had as were the eggrolls. The egg rolls were not served with any condiments such as sweet-and-sour sauce or hot mustard, which was a little bit disappointing. The Mongolian beef was very chewy and a bit light on the sauce. The flavor was good. The Manchurian chicken tasted more like Indian food than Chinese. Both entrées were pricey at $18 and $19 for the lunch portions. The service was good. If you're looking for traditional Chinese food or Indian food, I would recommend Bayleaf in Round Rock Indian but for Chinese, nothing stands out in Round Rock. read more

I've been wanting to try out The Spice Garden for quite some a while now and finally had the time to sit and enjoy a meal. The vibes are wonderful there. Very cozy but elegant. We enjoyed the service, the servers are knowledgeable with their menus and served us our food fairly quickly. We ordered three mini tacos for apps and our main courses were Mongolian chicken, and butter chicken with naan. The food was fairly tasty. The only thing I would say is the restaurant does run on the pricier side. For a party of 3 we ended up paying 100$. Overall: Food: 5/10 Service: 8/10 Price: 2/10 read more

Good spot for indo Chinese food. We ordered the cumin chicken and veg lettuce cup. The cumin chicken was really well cooked and seasoned perfectly, with not much spice or oil which is the way we like it . The lettuce cups were okay, the filling was a bit oily for us but still tasted great. Ambiance is welcoming, service was a bit rushed although we ordered half hour before closing, but still was okay.

Santoshi was extremely helpful in our meal selection decisions and a really super sweet person. She checked up on us regularly and ensure we were enjoying our dining experience. The food was just AMAZING. We purposely ordered extra dishes so we could get to taste different dishes. We really can't wait to go and eat here again. read more

Great food and great service. We catered from them last week and it was delicious. The butter chicken was amazing.

Great food and even better service! The buttered nan was great and the chicken masala was delicious!

I'm shocked this place has such high ratings. First time and last time tonight. The appetizers were good but very small portions for price. The hot tea had no flavor even after asking for more tea bags. Additionally, the soup and vegetable stir fry in "garlic" sauce had no absolutely no flavor. I love garlic and not even a hint of it. Maybe the Indian food should have been our choice. I think they should pick one cuisine and concentrate on it vs. trying to have a large menu. The waitress was nice but not very helpful being new to the place. We were so disappointed wanting to take our mom out for a nice dinner. read more

Extremely bland Indo-Chinese cuisine. Was much tastier under previous management and when they were part of the Inchin franchise. We ordered so many dishes and everything was saltless and flavorless. What a letdown. read more

The Spice Garden offers exceptional Indo-Chinese fare with a nicely decorated, upscale ambiance. I'd argue that this restaurant is the only one offering quality indo-Chinese food in the Austin area. Our go to items to order here: 1. Hakka style chili chicken. This dish is so tasty! The chicken is cooked perfectly and the gravy it comes in is to die for. 2. Burnt garlic fried rice. We always order this without fail. This goes so well with the chili chicken! 3. Lat Mai paneer. Fantastic appetizer! My husband says this is the best chili paneer he's had since moving to the states from India 10+ years ago. We often order delivery as well, and find that the food remains warm and fresh. One thing that could be improved is the price. This place is expensive! Each dish can run us roughly $18-$20, which I think is a bit overpriced. I really think the owners could benefit from offering full service catering and investing in a larger restaurant space with a banquet hall. This is one of the only high quality Indian restaurants in Austin. Highly recommend! read more
