My roommate and I went here for dinner after a long week and it was the perfect place to end our Friday night with. The food was amazing, the service was even better. The owner made sure to talk to us on our way out and all the staff was excellent. Nisar specifically made sure that our entire time was well spent, he recommended dishes to us and it did not disappoint. I would highly recommend this place. It almost felt like we were in India and experiencing their hospitality forgot this is nyc for a second.

Food is great! Service is great. We ordered Indian chinese - paneer chilli and paneer manchurian and chicken lollipop were great. Nisar was the manager who made sure we enjoyed our food and the occasion.

We had the malai paneer tikka, hakka noodles and paneer schezwan , batata wada and gulab jamun.. each of the dishes had an authentic flavor and great taste

Tonight I dined at the Spice Symphony on E 50th St for the first time, and it was a great experience. The manager, Nisar, was our server, and he was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us choose items from the menu. The staff was very attentive, constantly refilling our water and checking in. The food was all very good. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice as well! Highly recommend!

The staff were courteous and attentive. We visited earlier in the evening, before the rush hour, and had the place almost to ourselves. The food was mostly delicious, with the chili paneer standing out. However, the Palak Paneer was a bit dry, the Veg Manchurian was chewy, and the garlic naan could have been fresher and softer. Despite the restaurant being relatively empty, the food arrived quickly, but unfortunately, the quality didn't quite match our expectations. Overall, a pleasant experience with room for improvement.

Underwhelming Indian food. We just ordered starters and left as it was too chewy and the Vada they gave was stale The chicken 🍗 lollipop were okay and Manchurian was not tasty at all

This was ok restaurant, nothing outstanding. We ordered Delhi chat, Palak chat and mushroom starter out of that Delhi chat was not good, other two were pretty good. For main course we ordered Delhi chicken tikka, kofta(too sweet) , makhana curry, bhindi. Everything was ok. I loved the Chinese Hakka noodles. Mango and rose kulfi was two sweet. Malai kulfi was good. Masala soda was very good. Overall ok experience. Did not stand out jackfruit biryani for me. Food is very expensive as compared to taste.

Warning: check your receipt very carefully before paying. This restaurant automatically adds a mandatory 20% tip to the bill and includes it in the total. After that, the payment screen still asks for an additional tip, which can easily cause customers to tip twice without realizing it. The situation is made worse by the extremely dim lighting — we were practically eating in the dark — making it very difficult to clearly read the receipt before paying. This practice feels misleading and deceptive. Customers deserve transparency, not pressure or confusion at checkout. For clarity, I have already uploaded the receipt with my review, and it clearly shows the issue. As shown on the bill: • Subtotal: $64.00 • A mandatory 20% tip ($12.80) was added before calculating the total • Tax: $5.68 • Total charged: $82.48 However, after this total, the payment screen then prompted for an additional tip with suggested percentages (2%, 3%, 5%, 7%), which are calculated on top of a bill that already includes a mandatory tip. This creates a very real risk of customers tipping twice, especially given the extremely dim lighting in the restaurant, which made it difficult to carefully review the receipt before paying. Regardless of intent, this setup is objectively misleading: • A mandatory gratuity is already included in the total • Yet the system still prompts for extra tipping without a clear warning • The lighting conditions further prevent transparency at checkout Customers deserve clear, unambiguous billing practices — not confusion or pressure at the point of payment. I appreciate you investigating this matter and hope appropriate steps will be taken to ensure this does not happen to other customers.
