Southern Spice 1635 Hillside Avenue, New Hyde Park, NY 11040

"This being a South Indian restaurant, I ordered Veg Kuthu Porotta and didn’t depend my decision. I reached there just before afternoon break and yet they were welcoming. The food was served quick and the porotta tatsed awesome with the raita. The portion was Really good and filled me up easily. The spiciness level was accurate and the food seemed authentic. Give it a shot if you would want to explore South Indian cuisine."

"Simply delicious If you just want good food simple good Southern Indian food this is the place."

"A decent place for Indian! I'd say it is above average, but not absolutely amazing. The mango lassi had a nice consistency, but it had too much of the yogurt flavor and not enough of the mango. The Chettinad curry was flavorful and spicy, but the sauce was a little watery in my opinion. The meat and veggies inside were okay. The cheese naan was a nice side. Overall, it was an enjoyable meal, but there was something that left me not completely satisfied and I'm not sure what it was. I'm not sure how prices are in other Indian spots lately, but everything pictured costs $30."

"One of the worst South Indian restaurants far by quality and taste.This was a good 30 mins ride from home to this place and the expectations hit ground level when we tasted it for the first time.The Chettinad chicken was so watery and very salty.The Chicken 65 was a horrendous small portion of dry chicken just tossed in some weird spices.And the Malabar Parrotta could never be eaten even by a Sabre tooth!! It was so hard and rubbery.Worst experience doing take out here.Don't recommend this place ever and never going back again."

"This is a very special place for true Southern Indian cuisine! You will not see any typical Indian art or statues, no paintings of gods either. This place is actually Indian owner and run! Let the colorful walls and the sound of classic jazz keep you company as you await some of the best Indian food in the entire area, if not the entire country. Made to order, dairy free and vegan available. Great personalized service!!"
