“Started with an appetizer platter and it comes with three dipping sauces. We also got hot chai and momo with masala. It was so rich and good! With a side of garlic cheese naan. Service was great. Definitely would recommend and will be returning soon!!“

“Fantastic food! The service was also fantastic.“

“One of the best place in denver for delicious Indian,Nepali and tibetian flavors.don’t miss this wow taste.“

“Wonderful server! Matthew was attentive, made great and helpful suggestions and added a great element to our dining experience. we ordered focaccia and roasted garlic for the table and the bread serving was really small, and the warm olives were great. Salad was excellent, as was the desserts, but we found the Carbonara pasta wasn't quite cheesy/eggy enough for our taste. Nevertheless we enjoyed dinner and appreciated the excellent service.“

“Just had lunch at Spice of India and highly recommend. The food was excellent and the manager, Sudip, gave us great service. Nice atmosphere, great food and service - we will be back.“

“Best Indian restaurants I never had before. The staff was so friendly ??“

“Lamb Korma was on another level! Service was great too! Highly recommend 👍“

“Variety like I have never seen before! Menu offers so many choices that I had to venture beyond my tried and true favorites. I usually have Palak or Saag Paneer. I tried a different paneer and the honey curry. Chef noted my desire to stay on the mild spice side. The tandoori chicken wings were among the tops of my wings experience. If you are there for happy hour (starts at 3 pm), you must try them! I ordered a large amount of food so I’d have leftovers to take home.“

“Extremely friendly staff, nice music, and open LATE. The lamb and saag are great, the dry chili tofu appetizer is hands down the best tofu dish I've had to date. Looking forward to exploring the burgers and Greco-Mediterranian parts of the menu in future visits. If you're there during bar hours, The mango chili cocktail is also great.“

“What a gift and a treat for Capital Hill. Fish Tail is a delightful and delicious taste of India and Nepal. The menu is large. We decided to buffet. We took small amounts of many dishes to taste the large variety of vegetable, and equally large number of meat dishes. I really like sweet potatoes and butter chicken; my friend really liked lamb curry, vegetarian samosa, and chili chicken . Everything was flavorful and delicious.

We were treated with friendly and courteous service. Our hostess and server gave joy fullness and pride as delightful and delicious as our dinner.

Buffet is every Friday, Saturday, Sunday.😋“

“Really nice, clean, and re-modeled place. The food is fresh and wonderful and reasonably priced. If you are looking for an Indian Food Buffet, all you can eat, this place is outstanding! Actually Indian Buffet's are hard to find now. When ever I am in Denver this is my go-to spot for their wide selection Buffet. I recently enjoyed the spicy Shrimp and several Vegetable dishes. The Chicken dishes were varied and delicious. I noticed they have $5 Draft Beer on tap. Nothing beats a cold beer and spicy Indian food. Highly recommend!“

“Absolutely delicious!!! Spice level just right/as ordered on the Saag paneer, appetizers super tasty!! Excellent, friendly customer service!!“

“Absolutely the best Indian food I have ever had in my life!! Sooo yummy - you have to try it!“

“The owner of the restaurant just called me a working class driver (in a tone that sounded like he was talking to his slave from a throne) for asking him about a wait time on a delivery order for uber. I don't think my son or I will be eating here for a 7th time, we will take our hard earned lower class money to Yak & Yetti for some better made food and company. People like him that are dismissive of another persons right to service based on financial class will come back as a snake...“

“This really is the BEST indian food in the Denver area!!!! My boyfriend and I fell in love with it and the employees are amazing!🧡“

“Best place for masala and burger“

“Very affordable lunch buffet. Great service. Super clean and the food was good. My favorites were the saag paneer and butter chicken. Sundays are free streetside parking and we found parking around the corner.“

“Indian fast food with a twist, very clean & hip with healthy options reasonably priced yet super tasty. Must try their heavenly Butter Naan. Marshall ,the owner/chef & host has stayed open through pandemic, he is a fighter and this is a true American success story.“

“Great food superbly done. Attentive staff. Food presented well and hot. If you're in the neighborhood, I recommend this restaurant.“

“Great traditional food!“

“Our favorite local food, and there is a lot of competition nearby! Their mixed grill plate has yet to disappoint anyone we’ve had try it, and I love all of the eggplant dishes. Great naan, great apps, everything’s great.“

“My date and I had such a wonderful time and experience. We felt as though we were so wanted. I asked for the server's recommendations and he did not fail us... just simply awesome! This is our date night spot. Chef Tony McCummings“

“Best service and Best food“

“i went for their all.day weekend buffet, and it was delicious! The sagg paneer, lamb curry, and vegetable pakora were my favorites as well as the selection of sauces and chutneys! the nann and raita were so cooling and refreshing for a hot day and help if you accidentally make your food too spicy, like I did!“

“Every time I order from this restaurant, they knock it out of the park. The sweet potato masala is the smoothest, creamiest, best tasting I've had. The garlic naan is always perfect. Honestly though, I have never had anything from Himchuli RINO that wasn't wonderful. The food and the service are equally terrific.“

“Had our second event at Durbar, with one more on the calendar later this month. Gotta give it to them, the newly renovated banquet hall is a game-changer. Suman Bhai and the management team really know how to deliver top-notch service – never a single complaint. And the food? Always on point. If you're looking for a spot to host your next event, Durbar's got my vote, no question.“

“Yum. I am not a picky eater, I am a particular eater. I like quality and flavor. Chai & Chai covered those. The flavor was wonderful and not too spicy (I do love spice). The ingredients are fresh and quality. The cafeteria style service makes for a quicker visit. Our group had the Chicken Shawarma on pita, Turkish Gyro on pita, and the Chicken Tikka Masala and a Samosa. They were all equally tasty, though I would choose rice next time just for convenience sake. The location is walkable if visiting someone at Anschutz Hospiral.“

“"Little India offers an authentic taste of Indian cuisine with vibrant flavors and a warm atmosphere. The dishes are expertly crafted and bursting with spices, making it a must-visit for anyone craving genuine Indian food. Excellent service and a cozy ambiance complete the experience. Highly recommended!"“

“Our food was phenomenal! The flavors were amazing and everything was cooked perfectly!“

“Very good and flavorful food! Hospitality was excellent and the place was very clean and inviting!“

“great food just love this place so much“

“This was one of my absolute favorite places to go until last night 2/28/2025. Sat down for dinner and seen a pregnant mouse come out from underneath the booth by the bathroom. Didn't believe what I had seen until it ran out in front of the waitress while she was bringing out our food🤢 We still had to pay for the food too after telling them we had just seen a mouse, they brought out rice pudding as if that would help the situation. Who would want to eat the food after seeing a mouse? I gladly paid for the meal just because I know that I will never dine here again sadly. Disgusted and saddened by this as I genuinely liked coming here.“

“The food was delicious, the portions were generous. Felt like a neighborhood. highly recommend.“

“Just tried this place and it was amazing! Definitely go if you are in the mood for delicious nepalese food:)“

“I had a chance to try this Indian restaurant and I loveeeeeeed it . Best food and service !!

Thanks to our server Micheal 👌👌… never too much, never too little—and made great recommendations from the menu. Everything ran smoothly, and this positive attitude really added to our dining experience. Highly recommend and would definitely come back again!

Xoxo“

“If you want authentic nepalese momos in Denver - look no further. Grabbed my momos and chai togo and these were fantastic. Ordered the chicken momos and veggie momos and both were fantastic flavorful and tasted delish with the nepalese chutney. The masala chai was fabulous as well. This place is inside Mango House. Everytime I am in Denver I will stop by. Highly recommend.“

“Great service, Great food and very friendly“

“I love Spice Trade. it's pretty far to travel for me to get there, but well.worth or every time. I bring everyone who comes to visit us in CO there, it's perfect for my Girls Nights Out, and perfect for lunch with family and friends as well. My fellow likes to go there for the brews, I love the foods (ok, and brews...meads...wines...and cocktails too 😉). Chris the GM is outstanding and he probably doesn't know it but he's offered me 3 tours of the brewery when I was there with my girls/fam/friends. I've taken him up on that every time. 😊 I also love the wait staff, they're personable and often times it's a family affair. I highly recommend this place!“
