Nisar, the manager, is truly the sweetest! He always greets us with a big smile and even offers complimentary desserts, which makes the experience feel extra special. The food is amazing every single time definitely a 10/10 for the butter chicken and the chicken tikka masala. This is my third time coming, and the customer service just keeps getting better. The staff is attentive, friendly, and really makes you feel welcomed. Honestly, one of the best dining experiences I’ve had!

Nisar the manager is so kind! He always greets us with a big smile and offers complimentary desserts. The food is amazing, 10/10 for the chicken lollipops. This is the best of the 3 locations by far, we always come back to this one!

Warning: check your receipt very carefully before paying.
This restaurant automatically adds a mandatory 20% tip to the bill and includes it in the total. After that, the payment screen still asks for an additional tip, which can easily cause customers to tip twice without realizing it.
The situation is made worse by the extremely dim lighting — we were practically eating in the dark — making it very difficult to clearly read the receipt before paying.
This practice feels misleading and deceptive. Customers deserve transparency, not pressure or confusion at checkout.
For clarity, I have already uploaded the receipt with my review, and it clearly shows the issue.
As shown on the bill:
• Subtotal: $64.00
• A mandatory 20% tip ($12.80) was added before calculating the total
• Tax: $5.68
• Total charged: $82.48
However, after this total, the payment screen then prompted for an additional tip with suggested percentages (2%, 3%, 5%, 7%), which are calculated on top of a bill that already includes a mandatory tip.
This creates a very real risk of customers tipping twice, especially given the extremely dim lighting in the restaurant, which made it difficult to carefully review the receipt before paying.
Regardless of intent, this setup is objectively misleading:
• A mandatory gratuity is already included in the total
• Yet the system still prompts for extra tipping without a clear warning
• The lighting conditions further prevent transparency at checkout
Customers deserve clear, unambiguous billing practices — not confusion or pressure at the point of payment.
I appreciate you investigating this matter and hope appropriate steps will be taken to ensure this does not happen to other customers.

My roommate and I went here for dinner after a long week and it was the perfect place to end our Friday night with. The food was amazing, the service was even better. The owner made sure to talk to us on our way out and all the staff was excellent. Nisar specifically made sure that our entire time was well spent, he recommended dishes to us and it did not disappoint. I would highly recommend this place. It almost felt like we were in India and experiencing their hospitality forgot this is nyc for a second.

I regularly order takeout from Spice Symphony but this was my first time sitting down in the restaurant.
The food has always been excellent! The food is so flavorful and they have massive portions.
The service was also incredible. It was my birthday and Roland made it such a special experience. We were given a complimentary cake and appetizer and a card wishing me a happy birthday!
Such a great experience! We will definitely be coming back!

Creative dishes served with pride in a hospitable atmosphere at a reasonable price. Way more than I could eat in one sitting. I wanted to try everything. Will return to try the hakka noodles next. Reheated General Tso almost even better for lunch the next day. I felt most welcome there.

Underwhelming Indian food. We just ordered starters and left as it was too chewy and the Vada they gave was stale
The chicken lollipop were okay and Manchurian was not tasty at all

The staff were courteous and attentive. We visited earlier in the evening, before the rush hour, and had the place almost to ourselves. The food was mostly delicious, with the chili paneer standing out. However, the Palak Paneer was a bit dry, the Veg Manchurian was chewy, and the garlic naan could have been fresher and softer. Despite the restaurant being relatively empty, the food arrived quickly, but unfortunately, the quality didn’t quite match our expectations. Overall, a pleasant experience with room for improvement.
