Reviews
Owned by Gurminder Kaur and family, Rice and Curry is located in the heart of Downtown Renton, across the street from the Piazza.
As small as it, the place is surprisingly busy. Traffic is particularly high on weekends where many from fans of Indian culinary delights come to converge for a nice meal.
Most of the favorites are here, butter chicken, tikka masala, pakoras – fresh na’an. It’s there.
As for me, I started with an appetizer of fresh samosa and chutney. I also ordered the traditional chicken curry with garlic na’an. My friend ordered the buttered chicken with a side of basmati rice. Let’s not forget some tasty mango lassi to make the meal complete.
Come on down to Rice and Curry, as you are. The food will be hot fresh and tasty, and have that Indian flair that will have coming back for another serving!

Rice n Curry is absolutely charming in their ambience- bright, cheery, and offers that perfect balance of being cozy and yet not at all claustrophobic like most Indian eateries are. The location is perfect, with ample parking, patio seating optional, and offered huge windows to gaze out for the short time our order took to arrive.
We ordered Chukandar Chicken Tikka for starters, and enjoyed every bit of the perfectly-cooked succulent morsels, seasoned perfectly. For main course, we had Garlic naan and Bhuna ghosht (reduced lamb curry). Naans were hot, perfectly crispy-edged and soft. The bhuna ghosht was different from the other versions I had tried at different Indian restaurants, but in a good way. Usually they are more onion heavy, but the Rice-n – curry version had it more in a tomato rich gravy, savory and perfectly cooked, and made the perfect pairing with the naan. Host RJ and Rinky were warm and friendly and stopped by to chat, and were wonderful. The portions were generous, and perfect for two hungry people, who wanted a simple protein heavy meal. We didn’t order desserts, as we were full from the meal. Pricing was perfectly reasonable, and service was excellent.
Greatly recommend to anyone who wants to go and have a great experience in homely Indian dining.
Me and two of my friends recently visited Rice and Curry in Renton. I’m sure the owners and staff might feel a little disappointed reading this, but please take it as kind and constructive feedback — not criticism.
First off, the service was excellent! The staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely curious to know how we found the place. We were simply in the area, hungry, and looking for some good Indian food. The setup was very clean and welcoming, and we truly appreciated the hospitality.
Now, coming to the food — I asked very honestly if the samosas were made in-house, and the gentleman confidently said “yes.” Unfortunately, that wasn’t true. They seemed to be frozen samosas, and at $8.99 for two pieces, that was disappointing — especially after being told they were freshly made. I wouldn’t have minded the price if it matched the quality or honesty. (For context — I’m a bit of a samosa influencer myself, so I can tell the difference right away ).
As for the main dishes, both the Butter Chicken and Dal Makhani were lacking in flavor and spice. They didn’t have that rich, authentic taste you’d expect from these classics. The naans also felt pre-made or microwaved rather than freshly cooked, which affected the texture.
We ordered 3 entrées, 1 samosa plate, and 3 mango lassis, which came to $108 before tip, and $124 after. Some might wonder why I still left a tip — it’s because I truly appreciate good service and effort, having worked in the food industry myself.
Overall, this is not meant as an insult, but as honest feedback that I hope helps the restaurant improve. With their great service and nice atmosphere, a bit more focus on authentic flavor and food freshness could easily take this place to the next level.
However, considering the service I received while
Ordering and waiting, I do believe that had I been able to bring it back or ate it in restaurant, they would have fixed it in an instant
We ordered Butter Chicken and Bhuna Gosht with naan and rice — everything was delicious! The butter chicken was super creamy, and the gosht had amazing depth of flavor. Naan was soft and fresh, perfect for scooping the curry.
The staff (especially the owner lady) were so kind and welcoming. Really cozy, homey atmosphere.
Highly recommend if you’re craving great curry and warm hospitality!
It’s a rare woman-run Indian restaurant, and the owner is a gem—accommodating, passionate, and eager to share her story. Many of the recipes are inspired by her mother, infusing the food with a personal touch. They serve Zabiha Halal exclusively.
Sliders
The sliders were a visual and culinary delight, offering three distinct options:
• Mango-Infused Grilled Chicken: A burst of flavor with a sweet kick from mango, perfectly balanced.
• Beet Mayo-Infused Grilled Chicken: Rich and buttery with a subtle sweetness.
• Lamb Kebab: Packed with spices and tender goodness.
The grilled chicken sliders stole the show with its vibrant flavors and creative twist.
Murgh Masala
This unique dish is a true standout. The curry is luxuriously creamy, rich, and aromatic, with just the right balance of spices. The chicken chunks are melt-in-your-mouth tender. It pairs beautifully with naan and is an absolute must-try.
Broast Chicken
An unexpected find at an Indian restaurant, Crispy, thinly coated chicken legs and thighs are shallow-fried to perfection. Bone-in halal chicken fries like these are rare in Seattle, making this a treat. While I’d love a bit more seasoning on the chicken itself, the accompanying spicy and sweet sauces made it indulgently delicious.
Butter Chicken
I’m tough on butter chicken— skipping it because most places take it for granted and serve a version that doesn’t qualify as butter chicken. Rice n Curry nailed it, just how i prefer it. The sauce is rich, buttery, and perfectly spiced, with just the right hint of sweetness and tomato flavor. The chicken chunks were tender and flavorful, making this a delightful surprise.
Biryani
Biryani sparks debate even among Indians because of its many regional variations. This place follows a particular North Indian style: lightly spiced, well cooked long-grain rice and a good portion of chicken. I prefer a spicier kick of aromatic biryani and this version isn’t particularly my favorite, but it may appeal to whom enjoy milder biryani.
Chicken Sheekh Kabab
I also tried their Chicken Sheekh Kabab, it was decent, nothing extra-ordinary.
Naan was delicious. Chutney’s were very innovative
Location & Parking
Nestled in downtown Renton, Rice and Curry offers some dedicated parking, with plenty of street parking available nearby.
✨ Final Thoughts
Rice and Curry combines heartfelt cooking, elegant presentation, and a cozy atmosphere. The broast chicken, sliders, and murgh masala were standouts, and I can’t wait to return.
