Spice Lounge: Reviews & Ratings
We love this place..! the style and the plants was awesome. the food had such a great taste with the sauces which will make your mind blow away.. everyone has to eat in order to open mind
Delightfully flavorful, well organized menu, gluten free options, and plenty of rice!!! I wish I could eat here every day ...
The server was very helpful and great. The food is tasty however the food is very pricey for the portion size. The atmosphere looks nice, and there is outdoor eating space, however there are only a few seats available.
We do like to try out curry whenever we travel. We both agreed our choices were fantastic. We will come back here. Im hoping we went at a quiet time. It deserved to be busier.
Very cozy atmosphere located very close to the pacific beach ! My favorite spot for chaats better than many other famous Indian restaurants. The food is awesome! ...
Delicious food in a bright and airy atmosphere. The live plants are a nice touch. Service was very good and food was really really good. The Tika and the lamb biryani were amazing. Definitely one of the best Indian food restaurants in San Diego.
I ordered the vindaloo with rice and garlic naan, and it came out amazing. Heads up it is spicy. Id say out of one to 10 it caught me at like 8.6 And spicy level. I did not specify, so just make sure if youre in for spice to choose this ...
The service here was exceptional. The server somehow managed a full restaurant, the kitchen orders, banter, recommendations, and order checking. The kitchen got the food out quickly. The restaurant was clean. ...
