The Spice Palette Indian Cuisine - Indian restaurant in New London - 929 Bank St, USA

Damn this was good. In our never ending search for wonder Indian food here in CT, we tried Spice Palette and it was awesome. Big portions, excellent flavor, perfect service, clean restaurant. It was so good we couldn't stop eating! We'll be back!

I've only been to the spice palette a few times, and every single time, it has been absolutely amazing. The food tastes astounding, and it's flavored and spiced perfectly. The portions are very generous for the price, you will not leave hungry or disappointed. The food also looks so appetizing when brought out, it is abundantly clear that the owner(s) and the kitchen staff care deeply for their craft and want to serve the best food they can. If you are looking for an absolutely amazing restaurant in New London, you have to come to the Spice Palette!

I loved our experience at the Spice Palette. They were getting ready to close but served us a wonderful dinner, quickly but perfectly. Another diner was celebrating a birthday, but the staff must have heard me tell her it was my birthday too, and they came out with a piece of ice cream cake for me, I was very surprised. Our food was the best Indian food I’ve had in the area, and we’ve tried all the local places. We hadn’t planned on visiting tonight and it was impromptu, but so glad we stopped for a late dinner. We will definitely be back.

Stupidly good Indian food. I personally got the Murgh Vindaloo with Garlic Naan, and finished with Gulab Jamun. Shared a Lassoni Gobi (also spelled Lasooni/Lasuni from what I've seen? But that's just the spelling on the menu) dish with the other person in my party. The Vindaloo is spicy no doubt, but it adds to the blend used in the sauce perfectly as it's deeply flavorful, hitting very savory and distinct somewhat-sweet notes, the only real reservation I have here being the chicken's texture as it was a little tough for me. Besides, and for those unaware, the rice is meant to help with the heat! Naan or any other starches can too, assuming you ordered some. The service really shined when I was able to ask for the Garlic Naan without cilantro (as I'm one of the few with the "soap gene"), and our server was more than happy to accommodate. The Gobi appetizer had was a stellar start, the sauce was smooth, mild, definitively garlic-y and the texture was neither too crunchy nor too soft. I've been wanting to try some Aloo Gobi and I think this is a great introduction to more Indian cauliflower dishes. Now I just need to try Paneer... The dessert menu arguably startled me as someone who's more used to a western palette, but again the service really showed its best as the staff were patient with me and allowed me time, to change my mind after the check came, and were flexible when they recommended the dessert I chose by itself since I wanted to do it take-out. I do NOT regret changing my mind about Gulab Jamun, I'm almost a little upset I only got two balls because it's that ridiculously good. Moist, VERY sweet, smells otherworldly despite its simplicity, and pairs well with ice cream (albeit I added my own after I got home, I can't speak on the location's ice cream). Absolutely thrilled I was recommended this place by a confidant of mine. I'm not exactly used to "fancy" Indian as the restaurant closest to me is more akin to a "fast-food" Indian place, and while the atmosphere didn't hit all MY personal notes, it's certainly stunning and might really impress you. I will say the pine tree shaped napkins with utensils as the trunk for December were adorable, and the water you can self-serve from a bottle is unique! TL;DR: food so good I was sent to God, the bathroom next morning, and their Google page to write this essay-long review. worth it all 10/10 would highly recommend

My First-time here. I'm whole food plant based. I went there because they had so many Vegan Options. But My Friends and Date Had Non Vegan. They Loved Everything and So did I . Portion were Great. Staff was Friendly. I got a Vegan Desert that tasted like Rice Pudding. It's a Must Eat Place. I Will Be Returning Many Times in the Future. Peace

Found this amazing spot by accident. Being an Indian very much moved with their high standards from the service to the food presentation. Please do visit for an amazing dining experience to explore the taste of Indian cuisine. The prices are very reasonable and good portions served.

Superb. I've had a lot of Indian food across the US and the food, service, and atmosphere of this place is beyond anything I've had. I had the tamarind eggplant and the tandoori palette. The eggplant appetizer felt like a full meal and the flavor was outstanding for a meager $7. Very generous portions, and beautifully presented. I'm in danger, this place is an easy walk from my work and now that I know how amazing this is I may be coming in often. If you love Indian food, just go. There's no way to be disappointed.

Festival of flavors served in generous portions. Expert dish presentation. The prawns sultani sauce was out of this world. My partner had lamb pepper fry- exquisite. What a jewel in New London. Lots vegetarian options also.
