Went for weekend brunch today; great experience. Every dish we tasted was flavorful and good quality. Only thing is that they were not prepared with so many people coming on the first weekend of opening, so dishes were running out and they were working hard to make them fast.
In the buffet we sampled, chickpea salad, cut fresh veggies, green salad, pakodas (they were getting over fast, so I stole from my hubby's plate), baby corn, some other stir fried veggies (didn't care much for those), Chilli chicken, greek chicken, chicken tikka masala, paneer palak, rice, peshavari dal, rice kheer, masala chai and some gulabjamun. Gulab Jamun was too sweet for me, somehow could eat only 1/4th of it. Preferred kheer over it. My tandoori chicken I couldn't eat, was done in hurry I felt. They should reduce the size of gulabjamun since most were eating only half. But over all great experience.
I visited Urban Spice on its opening day on Wednesday 07/25/2018. It was wonderfully decorated. Food made by this group (Same folks that own Biryani Bowl) has always been my favorite. I liked how spacious it is. I think it can hold up to 300 people for banquets! Loved the cocktails made by the bartender! All in all, a high five to a gem of a place tucked away in the middle of Newark!
Had been here for evening drinks and snacks which was good. Came back for buffet. Food selection is decent, not much different from any other bay area Indian buffet at this price point. 4 stars because some of the food items were not warm even though we arrived by noon.
Updates from 10/08/2019: changed the rating to 5 star. Visited this place again for evening drinks and family dinner. Great food (I would let pictures do the justice) and enjoyed the service. Will definitely come again for this experience. It does seem like evening menu based food/service is different (much better) than other forms like lunch buffet.
We have been here a couple of times. Once for a private party and other times had dinner in the restaurant.
Menu has some interesting choices like Beet Cutlet, Goan Shrimp currry, Fish curry in addition to some delicious Chicken dishes. Overall the dishes are tasty and the ambience is good too.
They can improce on their service. The waitinf staff are too eager to clear the table even before we are done.
Prices are slightly on the higher side when compared to similar restaurants.
One more aspect that I wanted to add is that their bar tender is horrible. He is just a kid who has no clue about the basics. Suggest not to order any cocktails
Highly recommend the Tandoori Mixed Grill (which is not on the menu) and the garlic naan. I would give this place 5 stars, however, their curries are lacking flavor and spices.
Ask for Alex when you arrive. He is friendly and always has some great recommendations on what to try.
Sunday noon buffet $13.95. Decent place. Multiple chicken dishes... Tandiori, butter and with cilantro and chilli pepper chicken ... wish there was some variety like fish pakora 🤔
Chai was good but cups were sized like medical specimens and tiny
Great ambience. Good selection of items during lunch buffet such as biryani, fruit, chai, butter chicken, idli, pakoras. If you're a fan of chutney their tomato and mint is very thick and flavorful.
This place is quintessential Fremont - and I love it! Wife and I had dinner and drinks at the bar, which offered the full dinner menu. The bartender knows how to mix a mean cocktail. If you're a fan of the negroni, he won't disappoint.
Came for lunch with a large group, and everyone enjoyed the food at the lunch buffet. Good selection of vegetable dishes and meat plus salads. All the typical dishes: paneer, daal, tandoori chicken and tikka masala. Plus others I don't recall but very good. Fresh naan delivered to the table. They are good at bringing more water since some dishes are spicy. None are incredibly spicy but there's many sauces you can add. They had two desserts: shredded carrot cake and cafe mousse. After Yelp check in it was only around $10 per person before taxes and tip! Great deal and good quality. Not too crowded.
Definitely recommending and coming back!
Really good... Perfect food try artichokes tandoori see picture
