" Spice Roots left me in awe! I visited on a Friday night with some friends, and we ordered a variety of dishes: chicken tikka masala, vegetable biryani, and a platter of appetizers. Each dish was bursting with flavors and showcased the authentic essence of Indian cuisine. The only downside was the slight delay in service due to the busy night, but the staff were courteous and apologetic, which made the experience bearable. All in all, an unforgettable evening filled with delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Spice Roots is a regular stop for my family. Every time we go, we’re excited about another excellent meal. I personally adore their thali which gives you a variety of flavors to enjoy in one plate. Perfect for sharing! The staff is always accommodating to dietary preferences, and the ambiance suits family gatherings. Highly recommend it for both newcomers and regulars alike! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very mixed experience at Spice Roots. On one hand, the food was delicious; the paneer tikka and dal makhani were heavenly and tasted almost like what I tried back in India. However, I felt that the service was a bit slow since it took a while to get our orders taken, and there were moments when we had to flag down our server. The restaurant was busy, but it could be managed better. Overall, I would say it was just okay, but the food definitely deserves a high praise! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an unhappy dining experience at Spice Roots, which was surprising given its reputation. My order was incorrect when it arrived, and the only response I got was a quick fix that didn’t resolve my issue. The food itself tasted decent yet not as vibrant or fresh as expected. It had potential but fell short on execution. I hope this serves as useful feedback; they can definitely improve! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Spice Roots was enchanting, adorned with beautiful traditional Indian decor. We tried several dishes, and though my chicken biryani was delightful, my friend's dish was overcooked. A bit disappointing. Overall, the flavors were still bright and inviting, making it a memorable experience. The staff were charming, but the kitchen could pay more attention to cooking times. I'd return, hoping for more consistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an exceptional spot for Indian food! I can't get enough of their butter chicken. It’s creamy, robust, and the spice levels are just right. I also loved their mango lassi—super refreshing! The only downside was the wait time was a little longer than anticipated, but trust me, it is worth every minute. Spice Roots really knows how to make every customer feel special! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Spice Roots was a highlight of my week! The staff made sure my friend and I were comfortable, always checking in to see if we needed anything. As for the food, we tried a selection of appetizers, including the samosas and pakoras, which were crispy and flavorful. Our mains were equally impressive, especially the lamb rogan josh, which was tender and full of taste! I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Indian cuisine with friendly service. " (*Curated Review*)
