What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Spice Kitchen offers a vast global buffet with an elegant ambiance, especially praised for its Sunday brunch and extensive dessert options. However, some diners find the food bland, service inconsistent, and portions small for the price, with specific complaints about uncooked or overly salty dishes. For those seeking variety and atmosphere, it can be a good choice, but quality can be hit or miss.
"One of the best places to visit for Sunday brunch. Dessert options are endless. Service is impeccable. There is live music. Loved different options in meat in various cuisines"

"Went there for a team lunch. Ambience and atmosphere was five star.
As usual there were a lot of food options starting from salads , to starters to main course to desserts. I tried little bit of everything.
Started with salads which were mostly cold , the edamame hummus with soft pita were the highlights for me. Continued with pudina shorba and lemon coriander soup which were very flavourful.
Tried some baked and grilled starters like prawns, fish and lamb there was nothing special in them in terms of taste everything was bland.
In terms if main course tried daal makhni, methi chi bhaji, bakharwadi , methi chi bhaji was tasty and creamy as well. Bakharwadi was very soft. I tried various types of rice as well , jasmine rice had a very good fragrance.
Concluded with desserts like moong dal halwa, chocolate pudding, various ice-creams and cakes. Nothing special there.
Overall i find this place very overrated. The food tasted bland, the service was a let down, many items which we ordered on our table like pizza , grilled items were served very late. Not to mention there were flies as well .
This is not expected from a restaurant inside J W Marriott."

"We went there on a Tuesday for lunch buffet. The price is 1800 plus taxes per person on Weekdays. So for 2 people the total bill was around 4300 INR. You can call them and book table or enquire.
So this was my first time. The food was not so great to be honest. It looked good but tasted bland. I just had to try it once. The dumplings did not taste good, noodles was too salty, it was as if the chef dropped a bottle of salt in it, the paneer was not good, lamb was just too bland, I usually love prawns but it tasted so bad here. I ate a lot just to get my money’s worth.
The seating area is not spacious and very cramped up.
All in all, it was average. I wouldn't pay so much to eat here again."
