Reviews for SPICE ROOT By Kohinoor Indian Pakistani Restaurant | Decatur in Decatur, GA

Quite high quality food. The seating area is very basic, but we got takeout. Perfectly seasoned, a bit of a bite to it but not... overly spicy, just complex, really interesting flavors. Recommended, good value for the money. Read more

I used to love this place, but service has declined. We ordered online and it said food would be ready in 20-30 minutes. It was... over an hour for the food to be ready and the restaurant wasn't busy at all. No explanation. Just a half hour of "it's almostready" and "we're packing it up". Food was good once we finally got it, but I won't be returning. Read more

This is a hidden gem hole-in-the-wall restaurant! It has been in this location for at least the last 8 years, and having now... (finally) eaten here it is obvious why they survived the initial covid-19 pandemic. The food here is excellent, and would bevery good as takeout or to go food as well as dine in. We wanted a break from being in the house and the restaurant itself wasrelatively empty, so we decided to eat in. Eating in is no frills, very casual dining, but the food itself is what you arepaying for here! I think their prices are comparable to other Indian restaurants in the area, and I felt like we got a goodamount of food for the amount we paid (about $40 for two of us after tip) We ordered one order of the onion naan, the KhadiChicken, and the Tandori Chicken Leg (which is a whole half chicken, two thighs and two drumsticks, served with the thigh anddrumstick still attached). It had some spice but wasn't so spicy that I couldn't enjoy the flavors as well. It was really avery nice experience -- they were available if we needed anything but also left us alone to enjoy our dinner. Water is selfserve from the water machine. I hope this restaurant continues to do well and stays around -- I'll be eating here again! Read more

I?ve been coming to Spice Root in Decatur for years, and they never disappoint. It?s honestly such a hidden gem and some of the... best Indian food I?ve ever had. The people who work there are also really nice. The lady at the front even helped me bring myfood to my car. Read more

The food was amazing! The owner's are a desi couple and it really felt like eating my mom's home cooked meal! The portions were... really large as well. Usually chicken 65 is a small appetizer that you have to order two servings of but she gave me such a bighelping! Also don't forget to try the desserts, the falooda was amazing! 12/10 Read more

This is my 4th time visiting this place within a month!! Love the food and the management is great! The food is obviously... delicious and that is the main reason why I am back now and then??????????? So far I have had Kadhai chicken, chicken biryani,veg biryani, lassi, falooda, butter chicken and lemme tell you all its the best! There are alot of hyped indian restaurantsnearby and those are nothing compared to this one they just more known I guess but this is the best food I have had after movingto the States ???????????? and the place is clean and open until 10 rest close at 9 so thats a plus!! I will be back again! Read more

This restaurant seems to be under new management. My first impression is that I see a sign with a reduced price buffet. That's a... red flag for me. They offered us buffet or menu, so naturally, we picked the menu. The waitress recommended the Chicken Tikkaand another lamb dish, as well as the naan and kabobs. Me and my friend settled on Chicken Samosas, Chicken Tikka, ChickenBiriyani, various naan breads and the Mango Lassi. Everything was wonderful, the service, the food, no dirty dishes. I reallyenjoyed everything. There are a few things to hit on. I wish my chicken tikka had more chicken, but the sauce was excellent. Iwish the Lassi was colder. Other than those little points it was a great dining experience. There are a lot of Indian options inthe area, and they have to deal with what I see to be a bad reputation by the old owner, but it is worth another try now. Verygood at reasonable prices. Read more

The food was delicious. We tried the chicken Tikka Marsala and the saag paneer and we loved it. The new management is amazing... and I will definitely be returning. Easily one of my new favorite spots. Read more
