I found this place on my way home and BAM Found what I was looking for at O'Desi Aroma. Put my order in online and it was ready when I arrived. Got home and devoured! Got some chicken kabobs and biriyani which was exactly what I was looking for = happy me! The garlic naan was the best I've had in years and totally a surprise. I'll be adding this place to my list of local go to places for flavor and good eats. Btw - staff was super friendly and restaurant was clean and inviting. I'll be back

Southern Spice is a solid 4 star Indian restaurant in Las Colinas, which is full of similar…read moreoptions, due primarily to great value. I haven't had vada pav sliders before but the filling is kind of like fried samosa filling without the dough. It's good. The serving size of the biryani was very impressive. You can see from the photo that they fill the container and then add another mound of rice on top of that - basically 2 servings (we took one home). And they didn't skimp on the chicken either! The chicken is cooked perfectly, the sauces are a great complement and this is an excellent dish. The Lunch Thali gives you a lot of bang for your buck and mine included ~5 pieces of fish fry, about the same amount of veg pakora, yogurt dip, chicken curry with rice, 2 different soups, a naan/tortilla thing, and a carrot dessert (like a halwa). All had good flavor and the soups have a nice spicy kick to them. However, since all the dishes for the thali come off the lunch line (ie all premade), the tortilla, fish and pakoras had been sitting out for awhile and not too hot. Had they come out fresh from the fryer, I might have given this experience 5 stars. As it stands, I'll probably be back for lunch anyways - and the thali is available 7 days a week!

Very nice decor and clean restaurant! The menu is quite interesting! We came on a Thursday night…read morearound 930PM and it was empty. We thought it was because they were maybe closing soon! But they said they are open till 12! We sat down and ordered a veg avakai biriyani. The portion was huge! The flavours were great but it was so spicy! (And we like spicy food but it was a little too spicy for us!) the raita was certainly helpful but we couldn't finish it!

Stopped in for takeout late night, i was very glad that there was a restaurant open so that I could…read moreeat! We ordered pakora chicken, the prawns dish, goat curry and goat biryani. The prawns dish was the best dish we had! Incredible flavor! Service was straightforward with ordering at the counter. Then we waited for the food and checked out the space! The restaurant is huge and looks great for large groups. Would definitely return to try more items.

---- Critics Review ----- Go! Go! Go! Very good Indian…read morecuisine. Beautiful decor, lots of room and affordable. Staff is super friendly and patient with Americans who don't know the menu and can't pronounce the menu. I've had 4 visits in 1 week. They are very accommodating and "Uncle" is the chef. I've focused on the tandoori chicken (leg/thigh) and chicken tikka (breast meat). Perfect flavor - I mean really good!! When I go for lunch, the cook is perfect and the meat is very moist. However, during the dinner rush, the chicken tikka gets a bit over cooked and is on the dry side (but not cotton dry!). My suggestion is to order it with "no black areas from the grill". That will ensure it remains moist. While I know & cook Indian food at home, this dish I can't do and always got out for. Absolutely high quality and well made food! (Getting chicken tiki masala Monday! Can't wait!)

Great food! I ordered the lamb korma with naan. It was delicious but I wish they gave me more naan…read more I also tried the paneer with naan. This place is very casual and so is the service. The women who worked their were very friendly but they were laid back (I can't think of a better way to explain it). I took off a star bc the restroom was atrocious. I already knew it wasn't gonna be cute based on how the place looked but my toddler had to use the restroom so I was forced to enter the 1980s hell hole they labeled as the restroom. Also I don't like how you had to choose between rice or naan for the dishes. I chose naan and had so much sauce left over. My husband experienced the same thing and he ordered his dish with rice. My advice: order to-go, choose naan, and then cook plain rice at home :)

Delicious casual spot for South Indian parottas and rotis…read more Our group of 6 ordered family style, with one parotta each. The food arrived quickly, and we found everything delicious--can't speak to authenticity, though! \\ chicken 65 - the chicken was delightfully crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside - very flavorful and not too spicy \\ cauliflower manchurian - didn't know cauliflower could be this texture! also crispy and a little chewy on the outside, soft and juicy on the inside - the manchurian sauce was a little tangy, a little spicy \\ mutton biriyani - easily two servings and was plenty for our group with the other dishes, too - fragrant rice with punchy spices and warm lamb that wasn't too gamey \\ mutton curry with parotta - this was my favorite curry--a little spicy, very savory - the parotta were so fresh and crispy and soft! i could eat just parotta but it carried the curry so well too \\ butter chicken with parotta - a little sweet and pretty spicy - doesn't look like a big dish but a little goes a long way \\ mango lassi - sweet, creamy - the perfect counter to the spicy curries The menu says they don't accept tip, and the service was fantastic regardless. There's plenty of parking nearby. A little pricey but would love to visit again, maybe for the weekend thali!

As soon as we walked in though, the music switched up to Indian music and realized it was definitely a more Bollywood/Indian club. No biggie. We sat at the bar and the ambiance was amazing! Beautiful decor, lots of club lights, DJ was playing a bunch of great songs and had a whole crowd out on the dance floor. The bartender was amazing! Efficient and friendly. The manager who greeted us at the door was very pleasant, efficient and had no problem jumping in and assisting customers when their staff would get backed up. Stayed for one drink only but if we had more time, we would have definetly stayed longer. Will definitely visit again if im ever in the area again.
