“ Food was fantastic! I got the buttered chicken and chicken tikki masala (super white of me I know ) and the garlic naan which was made fresh to order. Really good quick eat and budget friendly! ”
“ We stopped here for a quick lunch in the AC. The butter chicken and basmati rice was cery authentic and tasty! We finished the meal off with a refreshing mango lassi. Definitely give this place a go! Some of the best Indian food I've had in DC. ”
“ We were visiting from NC and staying at the Hilton nearby, we were hungry so entered the L’ Enfant Plaza in search of food. I had already looked at a few places inside and ultimately decided on SpiceX. Got the butter chicken and chicken tikka masala bowls. Both were delicious. One thing I did note, was that my masala was just warm. I would’ve liked if it was hotter (temperature wise). I added the chickpeas and tomato/cucumber salad on top. Overall, enjoyed our bowls. Flavors were delicious. I would definitely eat here again. The location was clean and quiet/relaxed. Priced decently too! ”
“ Great food, quick service! $15 for 2-entree plate with Masala rice topped with Chickpeas, Cucumbers, Tomato (maybe fresh onion). Flavorful vegetarian options. $3 Garlic or regular Naan bread seems expensive, but it is fresh, toasty, soft, delicious! Butter Chicken has great tomato vegetable flavor. Chickpea entree has cinnamon kick. Goat seems authentic with bones. Lamb and goat are $2 extra. When Lenfant gets overrun with high school tourists, this place is hidden so it is still quick! ”
“ Very yummy Indian food from a food court, and lots of gluten free options. I enjoyed the buttered chicken plate, samosas, garlic naan and mango lassi! Food is fresh and of good quality (not the usual “cheap stuff”). Highly recommend. ”
“ If you are visiting the spy museum at Washington DC, and craving for an Indian food, look no further. It’s a hidden gem near to the metro station next to the spy museum. They’re new, but they are affordable, give huge portions of food and above all, they are really tasty. ”
“ SpiceX is a must-try spot for Indian food, especially if you're near the Spy Museum. It's a quick-service place with fresh, delicious naan and generous portions. Their naan is amazing and 10/ 10. Plenty of vegetarian options too. We had the paneer saag bowl and a platter with dal makhni and veg curry. Everything was flavorful and satisfying. Perfect for a quick, tasty Indian meal! ”
