Spice Trader offers a culinary journey through Indian and Bengali flavors, presented in a setting that seems to be either warmly accommodating or occasionally fraught with inconsistent service experiences. Patrons can anticipate generous portions, a rarity in many urban dining locales, which feature dishes such as a uniquely interpreted kurma referenced to resemble butter chicken. The kitchen takes pride in offering food less greasy than typical, using the right blend of spices for an authentic homemade taste. Indeed, their mango ice cream manages to evoke nostalgia, suggesting a dessert course worth saving room for.
While some guests report delightful interactions with seemingly attentive staff, others have recounted unfortunate misunderstandings, highlighting the variability in customer service encounters. Nonetheless, the charm of the restaurant lies in its commitment to delivering a true taste of India, with hot plates that keep customers returning over the years.
