Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

The music and cozy vibe here was a delight. Obviously though you care about the food. My wife and I got a spread of appetizer, entrees, and bread. I personally elected to get a tandori malai chicken, and the chicken and vegetables came to the table audibly sizzling, and I had the best Indian vegetables I've ever had. These folks can make a mean plate of deliciously charred vegetables and succulent chicken. My wife has a butter chicken which was rich and perfect for dipping. And oh what delights there were for dipping. Easily the best naan I've ever had. We got the chili garlic topped naan, and it was smoky and has just a hint of heat. Our appetizer was amazing as well, but honest overshadowed by just how good the entrees were. Still, the aloo tikka chat was a flavorful blend of spices, tomatoes, chutney and potato that I would have happily eaten as a meal unto itself. Regardless, as someone with more than a few Indian restaurants under my belt, this was a delight on all accounts.

Spice Palace has officially become my go-to Indian restaurant, not just in town but across the entire region — and yes, that includes beating out Richmond. From the moment you walk in, the experience is consistently top-tier, and that’s thanks in large part to Joe who always provide the best service. They are welcoming, attentive, and genuinely care about making every visit memorable. The food is on another level. Every dish is packed with flavor, perfectly balanced, and clearly made with care and expertise. The quality and taste are unmatched anywhere nearby. My absolute favorite is the turmeric chicken tikka — it’s hands-down the best I’ve ever had. Tender, flavorful, and unforgettable and always comes out sizzling hot. If you’re looking for Indian food that sets the standard for the whole region, Spice Palace is it. Once you eat here, nothing else compares.
