01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

With over a dozen curries to choose from, THE SPICE makes it easy to match a meal to any craving. The selection covers familiar chicken staples like chicken tikka masala and butter chicken, hearty options such as mutton masala, seafood choices like sag prawn, and an array of vegetable curries including paneer palak and chana masala. The base gravies are prepared with a mild, approachable sweetness, while condiment bottles of spicy sauce on the tables allow diners to dial in heat levels to their own preference.

Lunchtime sets are particularly popular, coming complete with salad, a beverage, and a house soup lightly perfumed with garlic. Meals pair with either chewy, fragrant freshly baked naan or vibrant saffron rice and plain white rice—both eligible for refills—and multi-curry sets provide an easy way to compare 2 varieties in one sitting.

A variety of snacks and meats roasted in the clay oven, including aromatic tandoori chicken and chicken tikka, round out the cooking. For evening gatherings, all-you-can-drink party courses pair unlimited curry, naan, and side dishes. The shopfront also sells affordable bento boxes of biryani for takeout, making the spot a convenient choice in Akasaka whether stopping by alone or dining with a group.
