Jarret Sample
Fantastic Indian cuisine! Every dish we tasted was bursting with flavor. The wait staff is attentive and friendly. Pro tip: the happy hour menu is a great way to sample many different small dishes. The mixed drinks were also well done.

We visited for Sunday lunch hoping to make it different with Indian burgers… it was nice when we entered and ordered. Hot tea was good and kids enjoyed Mango lassi.. the one unprofessional thing was while “we were still eating” I was given check (as they were closing, and it’s ok)… but then the server came back in like 2 minutes asking me to pay NOW. I was like what?.. clearly they don’t care about customer service or satisfaction but “payment”.. paying of-course need to be done but for gods sake let the family eat peacefully first…

The food tasted great. We went early hours so not much customers there. They had happy hours from opens to 6. Some drinks and starters. There was an order mistake of dessert in the end. The waitress noticed and gave us the correct one for to go which is nice service

So so good! Checked out Spice Kraft for Happy Hour and the food and vibe was excellent!! They have tons of great options for $5. For my drink, I got the Whiskey Sour! The Whiskey Sour was really good! Then I decided to try all the food options. The first picture is the Bhel Puri, the puffed rice dish. It was very refreshing and perfect for a summer dish. Next, you will find the Naan Flight. I really enjoyed this and all of the dipping sauce options. Next, the Chicken Tikka Taco which was bigger than I expected and was very filling. Last, the Spicy Chicken was excellent and had a nice kick! I was very surprised with the portions for $5. I walked out happy and full and the wait staff were all helpful and friendly!

While visiting Spice Kraft in the Clarendon area, my experience was amazing. From the moment I have walked in I felt welcomed. The whole vibe of the venue was amazing, our server, Yash was amazing, and the restaurant settings of the scene made the experience a lot more enjoyable.

Good Indian food in Arlington. The inside sitting is limited but should not be a problem during summer as outside sitting opens up. Curries we’re tasty. Tandoori chicken wings are must try. Highly recommended.

Jacob Blandford
Very very good Indian food. Arlington doesn’t have many Indian options but we are lucky to have Spice Kraft. The food is delicious and the service was great. The staff really took care of us. Also one of the best happy hour specials in town. Super underrated. I look forward to going back and will need to get to lunch there also.
