    Highly recommend Spice Symphony. We thoroughly enjoyed the dishes we ordered, indo-chinese, palak chaat, paneer makhani etc. What elevated our experience was outstanding service, from Manager Nisar, who ensured everything ran smoothly and made us feel incredibly welcome. Beyond the good food, the ambiance was great, and we felt it was good value for money!

    Spice Symphony has been on my list to try since reading a NYT article from October 2022, "The 25 Essential Dishes to Eat in New York City". #11 on the list is the Chili Chicken at SS (the dry version). My wife and I were in town, from Chicago, for a wedding last weekend. We got to the restaurant just as the kitchen was closing for lunch service but the GM, Nasir, was kind enough to accommodate us. He stood by our table to answer any questions and to help us quickly place our order. We had the Chili Chicken and the Lamb Vindaloo. Both were exceptional. You can read about the chicken dish in the NYT article. The Vindaloo had an extra dimension of flavor from the chilies which are soaked in cider vinegar and ground with garlic and cumin before being cooked with loads of generously-sized chunks of lamb. We can't wait to get back to try more dishes from a restaurant serving a unique blend of Chinese and Indian cuisines.

    The food here was fantastic. It was literally a symphony of flavors. The place is low key and casual. We had the salt and pepper shrimp and lamb chops. The spices and sauces were superb and just lingered in you mouth. Nasir was our waiter and he was delightful and his recommendations were perfect. We will go again for sure.

    Went for a business lunch. Was not sure I was going to enjoy it. Not a big fan of Indian cuisine but I like the concept of Indo-Chinese. Rey happy I found it and took the risk! Enjoyed the food,music was pleasant could be a smidge lower in volume but not at all uncomfortable in volume. Still able to have a business conversation without feeling like everyone in the restaurant is listening in. Would go again!
