Spice Jar

Spice Jar: A Tale of Two Worlds - Delicious Food, Bumpy Service My Spice Jar experience was a curious tale of two halves: foodie paradise on the plate, and a bit of convenience store chaos in the air.
Let's delve into the delicious first. The Food: Oh, the food! It was a vibrant tapestry of pungent spices and aromatic flavors.
The lamb vindaloo (7/10) wrestled with my taste buds, offering a great flavor profile but leaving me yearning for a more intense fire.
The chicken tikka masala (8/10), however, hit the spice sweet spot perfectly.
Rich tomato gravy hugged tender chicken cubes, each bite an explosion of comfort and warmth. The goat biryani (9/10) was a revelation.
Fluffy rice studded with succulent goat, aromatic spices, and caramelized onions – it was a symphony of textures and tastes.
And the samosas (10/10).
They were golden titans, crisp and flaky on the outside, bursting with spiced-potato goodness within.
A single bite transported me to bustling street markets, a testament to their authenticity. The chili garlic naan (10/10) deserves a standing ovation.
Fluffy, chewy, and infused with the perfect blend of chilies and garlic, it was the ideal dipping companion.
Every morsel begged to be scooped up in its warm embrace. The Service: Now, the service (6/10) was a bit of a bumpy ride.
Tucked away in the convenience store side with the main restaurant closed, things got a tad hectic.
Orders got mixed up, wait times stretched, and the overall ambiance lacked the charm I expected.
I give the staff credit for handling the unexpected rush with relative grace, but it took a bit of the shine off the dining experience. The Verdict: Despite the slight service hiccup, Spice Jar's food shines brightly.
The bold flavors, generous portions, and exquisite textures left me wanting more.
If you're chasing a spice adventure, and don't mind a touch of quirky ambience, Spice Jar is worth a visit.
Just be prepared for a potential convenience store detour!

Went on 2 separate occasions once the buffet was over.
Had chicken korma with chili garlic naan it was so good I finished the whole thing by myself.
Next I tried the buffet I should have gotten there earlier (I reached at 2:15 or so) everything I had was delicious and fresh.
The chicken was tender and well made.
I was pleasantly surprised by the buffet quality.
Buffet runs every day 11am-3 but get there at 1

The restaurant was empty when we went, everything was very clean and tidy.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.
All the food was freshly prepared and so very tasty.
For everything that we ordered the price was not bad and the portions were huge.
