3 Best Indian Restaurants in Honolulu, HI

I have been here several times over the years. They are pretty consistent. The mango lassi and lamb vindaloo are delicious. The tandoori mixed plate lamb was over cooked and hard to cut this evening. Overall a decent dining experience. They charge for certain takeout containers and a menu item didn't match my bill. They have parking in the back of the restaurant.

Birthday celebration called for a feast and feast we did. Dinner for 3 (mine was the Lamb Balta Rice) Tandoori Party Platter, Tandoori Chicken Platter. Idk what theirs were. The food was fantastic, tasted fresh, perfectly seasoned. It was a packed-house at 6:30pm but luckily we didn’t have to wait and most people were finishing up. Great paintings and atmosphere. Didn’t take too many pics of the landscape because of the rush. I recommend going on an empty stomach to not take leftovers unless you can refrigerate after. We took leftover for sure as we devoured our appetizers. Mango lassi was really great as well.

Normally when reviews say the portions are large I take it with a grain of salt. In this instance I was so very wrong. Ordered lamb biryani and the tandoori chicken and it was enough food to feed a family of 5…twice. And the food was delicious! Hands down best biryani I have had. Flavorful, tender lamb, and the chicken was just as good. Our only regret was not eating in. I have been utterly defeated by this meal. Definitely recommend!

Everything that we had at this restaurant was very tasty. Service was amazing. Don’t listen to other reviews. Definitely not American indian. Try for yourself. Veg Momos- top notch especially the chutney. Reminded me of the ones I had in India. You can’t beat the price. Mix veg curry- very rich in flavor and texture. Naan- 1 full naan for the price is like no where else.

My husband and I went here for dinner before catching a broadway (on tour) show at the Blaisdell. We got the palak paneer, chana masala, and plain naan—everything was so good!! Lots of vegetarian options (which I really appreciate), servers were kind and attentive, didn’t wait very long for our food, and we enjoyed the casual atmosphere of the restaurant. 10/10 would recommend

This is my second time dining at Spice Up. Both times were good experience. There's a lot of selection on the menu with descriptions on what the dishes are. I don't actually remember what we ordered the last time except that we really love the garlic Naan. This time I wanted to try the mulligatawny soup and I really enjoyed it with the papadum. We also ordered lamb curry, lamb boti kebab and garlic cheese Naan. The lamb curry was spicy but taste great, the spiciness made it more appetizing. The naan was really good again. Just a little bit disappointed with the kebab, there was hardly any taste but good thing they gave 2 different chutney and that made it better. Overall we were very full and satisfied. Definitely coming back again.
