It was my friends birthday and he loves Indian food. I never really had Indian food and I don’t like spicy, so I figured I wouldn’t like Indian food. My friends loved the Indian food! I thought it was ok and doable, found some dishes that weren’t spicy and they were good. But for my friends that loved Indian- they definitely were happy! I loved the service. Our server was soo nice and he recommended things for me to have that weren’t spicy. He really took care to make sure we were happy with each item. I think he was actually the manager or owner because he didn’t seem like a server. But he took great care of us and I appreciated it! Thank you!

Not only is this place beautiful, but it was the best Indian food I have had in L.A. Spices were perfectly balanced, they ask for your heat preference and everything is not over cooked with ghee. The wait staff was helpful and kind. Highly recommend, off street parking too, always a plus here 😊

The food is terribly overpriced for what it is. The wait staff was not at all attentive and it took them forever to take our order, serve the food, and even bring the check and the restaurant was practically empty, For some reason they even took the menu after our initial order, we couldn't even order more food if we wanted to..They never bothered to check in on us to see if we needed anything, ask us to order dessert, or anything remotely worth mentioning. Throughout the evening they kept dissapointing us. Masala fries just ended up being a tiny mediocre portion of French fries with salt. An order of Butter Nan was substituted with regular Naan until we asked them to fix it. The food was in dire need to more salt. And the portions were absolutely tiny compared to the price. I will note that the ambiance was pretty great. I understand that we are somewhat paying for the ambiance and location but the other stuff was pretty hard to get over.

Went to Spice Affair for our Valentine’s Day dinner. Let me preface this by saying I am not one to leave a bad review like this, I am typically very forgiving and tolerant of restaurants I did not like very much. I am not exaggerating when I say this was the worst restaurant experience I have ever had. The food took HOURS to come out, was flavorless and completely disappointing considering the fact that their fixed menu cost over $200 for two people. The service was an absolute mess. It was not the fault of the waiters, rather it was the pitiful management that organized the horrible experience. The whole operation was so disorganized, they could not even give us our drink order after asking 3 times. Our orders ended up being wrong, but it was impossible to correct so we just had to live with it. The ambience was not good, it was outside by the street with no effort put into decoration. Just horrible experience. Awful service, awful tasting menu, awful food. They wasted three hours of our Valentine’s Day on a meal that I should not have been charged for. I contacted them to get reimbursed for my terrible experience and they didn’t even respond. Please reconsider if you are thinking about going here for any sort of special occasion or date night. You can do so much better. Not worth it at all.

The weather was spectacular even for Los Angeles and we chose to sit outside. The maitre d Satish Kumar was extremely attentive. All put, a magical evening in Beverly Hills!!

This place gives a very unjust view of Indian food and hospitality. It was poor on all levels. The service was atrocious, the food was poor..basic Indian food for an expensive amount. $29 for a chicken curry which was avg and small portion The appetizers were small, tasteless and bland..what happened to the spices..non existent. Naan bread was only saving grace. Our waiter offered to clear our table & cheque and we hadn't even received our main course. We also had to go to the bar to order a 2nd round of drinks as the full focus was on a table of 20 from the restaurant. Every other customer didn't recieve the same service as the table of 20. This place is over priced, over hyped and bad overall. Save the money and experience and go visit a better run, better representation of Indian food and food cooked the Indian way to a 'proper' Indian restaurant on Pioneer Blvd in OC. Will not be visiting this place again.

While we went on a particularly busy day apparently, we got our mains after over an hour and forty five minutes and we had no prior knowledge that that particular day was going to be so busy. The starters (paneer tikka) which also took about 20 minutes to come were cold and the last round of chai we got was also cold. Once we received the mains and voiced our concerns over the wait time, the server never returned to our table so we didn’t all have cutlery. While the head server apologized for this delay and explained the circumstances, the 1 hr 45 min wait (despite having a prior reservation too) should’ve been information we received before we were seated and ready to order. I would not go back here again which is a shame considering the actual food was actually good (especially the bhindi - would definitely recommend).
