Food is amazing! Food comes quickly. It’s delicious and creative. Value is incredible! Servers are lovely and friendly, but seem overwhelmed. We sat outside and were overwhelmed by the flies. Inside is tiny, uncomfortable, cold, kind of depressing and VERY loud, which is why we opted for outside and had to deal with the flies.

I have never had a bad meat at Spice Kraft in Alexandria, not in the last three years. We eat there at least once a month. The food is always fresh. You can reMy fly on the consistency of the recipes and trust the accuracy of the spice levels-I always order "mild". My favorite dishes are the saag (either lamb or salmon), Spinach pakora chaat, and onion kulcha.

This is my favorite restaurant! The food is amazing, and everyone in the family enjoys dining here. We love the lamb briyani, anything with tikka masala sauce, saag paneer, and cauliflower lashooni. Get on their mailing list because Spicekraft often has special meals available for holidays, which is a really fun way to treat yourself and try new dishes. Also highly recommend their happy hour and drinks. Their mango lassi is a real treat, and has my children always asking to go out for Indian. I’ve learned to make a reservation when my heart is set on dining here because they can be very busy, but if there’s no seating, they have great carry out. Enjoy!

Outstanding food! We had the lamb chops, lamb with korma, lamb with chettinand sauce. Samosas to start and mango & hibiscus ice cream for dessert. Everything was top notch and this place will be our new go-to for Indian food.

This restaurant is AMAZING. My husband and I recently went for dinner and what an experience! We had samosas and pork cheek with pineapple as appetizers. Both were so tasty. The samosas came with 2 chutneys that were a perfect match. As entrees we had the lamb shank Josh and the Briyanni with chicken. We asked for spice and they delivered. However, the spice did not overtake the flavor. Instead, it was the perfect compliment. Dessert was a scrumptious concoction of warm pineapple cake sort of, with strawberries and whipped cream on top and a smear of something cherry on the plate. I mean…. We are already planning our next visit.

We love this place! I would have given all 10s except for the first time ever one of our party’s guests said their chicken was dry. The lamb chops never disappoints and the sea salt shrimp kabob was fantastic! We will be back again and again.
