Spice Tree Indian Cuisine - Kitchener

I tried this place out based on good reviews on Google, tripadvisor, etc.. Big mistake. They are very friendly there but the food was just awful. It is by far the worst indian food I have ever had - I have had better curries come out of a jar. The meat is low-quality with too much fat and skin, the sauces are essentially flavourless, and the samosas are **** terrible. Add to that the exorbitant prices and I will NEVER go there again.If you are looking for real indian food, leave KW. Guelph has Spice Roots and Diwa, Hamilton and Ancaster have India Village (two locations run by a really knowledgeable husband and wife from India), and there are dozens of fantastic restaurants in Toronto. Just look elsewhere. There really aren't any great places around but Empress and Masala Bay are at least passable if you really must have Indian. Even Kismet at the University plaza is much better.

Just happened to walk by this restaurant and so glad we did! The server/owner was a super guy who went above and beyond. He was attentive to our needs and paid special attention to our little girl which was very sweet. The food was delicious! We'll be back again!

As soon as we entered we were greeted with a warm welcome. the lunch buffet had good variety and excellent flavor. we will definitely be visiting again

My parents are both from south asia but being brought up here, I never really got into spicy food. The best thing about Spice Tree is that their food is flavourful even when ordered mild. The butter chicken/tikka masala is the best I've had, and everyone I have brought to Spice Tree agrees. For lunch they have a 10$ buffet which always has appetizers, vegetarian, chicken, and beef options. If you are in a rush, you can do the "buffet to go" for which they basically give you a big takeout container and tell you that you can fill it up. This also only costs 10$!

My wife and i went out on a very quiet Wednesday night meal. We ordered Mini Samosas, Pappadams , Mullugtwanny and Sambar Soup, Crispy Masala Dosa , Lamb Ala Goa and Aloo Gobi. With 2 lassis the bill came to $73. The mini samosas were just ok (couldnt really taste the filling), the pappadams were very good, both soups were excellent. The main items were terrible. Overall too way too expensive for what we got. Not surprising we were the only customers we seen the entire time we were there.
