Had an amazing experience at The Spice Room – Authentic Indian! The service was warm and attentive from the moment we arrived. But the real star? The Lamb Chops. Juicy, tender, and packed with bold, rich flavor easily some of the best I have ever had. You can really taste the authenticity in every bite. Highly recommend for anyone who loves flavorful Indian cuisine!
