My daughter and I stopped in for lunch yesterday. We were seated quickly as the restaurant was not very busy. The gentleman who seated us greeted us warmly and gave us a comfortable booth. The menu had a lot of great choices and we ordered our favorites, mango curry and chicken tikka masala, with sides of vegetable pakoras, vegetable samosas, and buttered naan. We enjoyed everything! The service was very nice, and they packed the leftovers for us nicely. They checked on how we were doing and if we liked our food. All in all, a very enjoyable meal. We left satisfied and happy.

Rare find. Tasty. Good service. Nice ambiance with either new interior or recently refurbished.
To top it of, live music on Fridays.
We’ll be back.

I recently stopped by Indian Spice Bistro for a late lunch. The host warmly welcomed us and let us pick any seat, so we chose a cozy spot by the window. It was the perfect place to enjoy our meal and watch the rain outside.
We ordered Chicken Methi, Thate Idly with ghee, Garlic Naan, Chicken Nuggets from the kids’ menu, a Mango Lassi, and a Chikoo Shake. Service was excellent, with most dishes arriving within 8-10 minutes, though the Chicken Methi was delayed. The Thate Idly was a highlight—soft, flavorful, and paired beautifully with the Coconut Chutney, Sambhar and tomato chutney. The sambhar, while flavorful, was a bit salty. Unfortunately, the Chicken Methi, which I usually enjoy, was disappointing; it was saltier than expected and overly creamy, which took away from the flavor balance.
One downside was the quantity of the curries, which felt smaller compared to similar restaurants at this price. The Mango Lassi and Chikoo Shake were refreshing and nicely complemented the meal. Ample parking is available behind the restaurant, making it convenient. I’d consider returning for the Idly, but I hope they adjust the saltiness and portion sizes for a better experience.

Wonderful service and food! I went here for my 30th Birthday yesterday night and they were very kind - even making my mom's Biryani less spicy (even though neither of us complained or asked!) Portions were generous and delicious (neither of us can eat too much at once, so I have been enjoying leftovers of my Chicken Tikka Masala with Aloo Paratha all day today) Vegetable Samosas as well. The Mango Lassi and my Rasmalai were wonderful sweet additions as well (neither of us eat many sweets but rest assured we loved them!)
Thank you for having us!

Not a single Seattle Indian restaurant rivals this place. This is hands down the best Indian restaurant within 20 mins of Seattle. Love the Spicy Andhra Masala Dosa, Filter coffee, Malai Kofta, Chilli chicken, and Dal Makhni. Everything is great - from North Indian to South Indian food! Would be our go-to for Indian food hereon.

The cost and quality are totally off.

One star place all day long. They cheaped out on the quantity, big time. The serving bowls do not have any sort of depth and they're barely put any food on the plate. We had to order multiple dishes after getting frustrated with no quantity at all. Two people CAN NOT eat one main dish with naan. Servers were disoriented and didn't know what comes along with the dish. Food took forever to come to our table even when we were the only ones there. They really should walk around and see what other restaurants are serving because this is the easiest way to kill your repeat business. Place is super expensive in comparison to similar Indian restaurants. Never going back.

The Bisibele Bath here is incredibly aromatic—it’s like being transported straight to Bangalore. The atmosphere is calm, and the host is very friendly, making you feel right at home. Don’t miss out on the masala dosa, it’s an absolute must-try
