Absolutely loved the food here. Theres tons of indian cuisine available in this area and this was some of the best ive had. The Muttai Kothu Parotta was unreal, possibly a new favorite dish. The egg curry was fantastic as well. If youre looking for spicy south indian cuisine, this place is definitely worth checking out. The service was great too, very friendly.

Keema dosa and shrimp dosa were quite unique and had great flavor. Kerala crab cake is also highly recommended. Malabar parotta and chilli chicken were very good. We told them to make everything spicy so everything had a good authentic taste

Ordered delivery of the following items:

1. Chettinad Curry - the curry and naan was okay but parotta came with this order is not freshly made (they heat-up the frozen one)

2. Kerala Beef Dry Roast & Parotta - the dry beef was okay. Again the Parotta not good at all, will not order again.

3. Chicken Dhum Biriyani - the Biriyani was okay, it doesn’t appear dhum as mentioned in the menu though. Will not order again.

I recently used Southern Spice for catering for baptism/1st birthday 160 people and the food was amazing. Many of the guests mentioned how tasty the food was and that it was some of the best Indian food they tried in Long Island. If you are looking for excellent Indian food give Southern Spice a try.

We visited after the WC match. Its one of the closest Indian restaurant to the stadium. I guess they weren't expecting footfall and the service was very slow. The washrooms were also not that clean.
We tried paneer biryani, which was made of Sona masoori and was okay. My non veg friends said their food was good.

So next time if you're planning to visit after the match, expect some delay and plan accordingly

This is the worst restaurant I visit in my whole life.. i don’t want to give even 1 star for this. They didn’t treat well worst food i ordered biryani and one dosa we wait for more than 1 hour after that they bring the food. In menu it was 11$ one biryani and when they bring the check its charged 14$ for biryani… without informing us they took 11$ tip… they even didn’t bring water for us when we are eating… trust me its a review game business.. don’t be fool by seeing google review like me.

Please do not order from here, at least for delivery. I ordered the chicken tikka masala for ~$25. It was essentially a Trader Joes frozen meal with a bit more chicken and rice. The overall portion was tiny, and the actual meal was very watered down. You will get 2x the serving size and better quality food ordering from any number of other Indian restaurants in the area.
