Had an amazing experience at Spice Mantra! The food was absolutely delicious with authentic flavors and beautifully presented dishes. Every bite was full of rich spices and tasted fresh. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for dinner with friends or family. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had a great dining experience. Definitely a place I would come back to again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great Indian food in New York! ️

I visited this restaurant today and absolutely loved the experience. The ambiance, seating area, and overall vibe were wonderful, and the staff was incredibly welcoming.
A special mention to Pratik at the front—he was extremely kind and guided us so well, which made our visit even more pleasant.
We ordered the Malai Kofta, which was rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The butter naan was perfectly soft and paired beautifully with the dish. To end the meal, we were served rice pudding (kheer), and oh my goodness—it was amazing!
I’m quite selective when it comes to food, and this place truly impressed me. I will definitely be visiting again

This is a take-out review (pick up from store). Definitely noted the take-out packaging was lined with aluminum to maximize warmth in travel!
Samosa (5/5): The pieces were jumbo, almost the size of my whole palm! The inside was super flavorful with the potato filling being elevated with the included sauces.
Butter Chicken (5/5): It was unlike other Indian butter chicken flavors so perhaps more authentic to its region. Regardless, it was phenomenal with tender shredded cuts of chicken immersed in a blend of unknown bits.
Lamb Rogan Josh (5/5): So much flavor with chunks of very tender lamb. The sauce had bursts of flavor.
Naan – very standard naan but still delicious compliment to the meal.
Lots of vegan and vegetarian options on the menu as well.
Would definitely recommend and loved all the flavors. Will definitely order from here again!

It’s not bad as there are not a lot of choices around this particular area. Appetizers were delicious no notes, but the main entree chicken tikka masala could be better (meat chunks were tiny and a little dry, and curry was supposed to be medium spicy but wasn’t spicy at all).

Impressive portion for lunch @ $14, included some roti which isn’t in my photo!
Overall the food was alright – dal was way over salted which made me not finish it but the saag paneer was not too heavy & rice and roti were well made!
I would go back, potentially ask for something other than the dal though bc I ended up not really being able to handle the saltiness

The food was simply amazing. The flavors, the spices, the presentation, and the variety of dishes make this place one of the best places to eat in town. The meal prices are simply excellent given the quality of the food. The staff is polite and attentive, the environment is inviting and friendly. This is hidden gem.

My girlfriend and I have been here so many times, it’s our spot. From the service to the amazing food, Spice Mantra is a 10/10 all throughout. We’ve always been treated with the upmost hospitality, and the quality of the food is always good everytime. The servers are amazing people, and we always leave satisfied.

Craving for Indian taste while in New york?
Here is the place- Spice Mantra. With right amount of spice in each dish, made it super delish. Everything tasted so good and fresh. Everyone was so welcoming and provided very good service. Their veggie hakka has taste nowhere to be found. Highly recommended.

We came to try out this place thanks to a recommendation. Bratik, our server, was above and beyond. His recommendations were top notch and he even treated us to some unexpected menu surprises. We had the tandoori salmon (amazing with some tikka sauce on it), butter chicken and keema naan. We sampled the Bhel Puri, a delicious, crunchy app with tamarind chutney. Must try if in NY!

A perfect example of an Indian restaurant and some of the best Indian food I’ve had so far. Everything came together so well: the ambience, the delicious food, and the fantastic service. Their pani puri was outstanding, along with their spicy chicken tikka masala and lamb vindaloo. The servers were very kind and even gave us free kheer/rice pudding. I would 100% come back!
