I was in Bakersfield for a business meeting and stumbled upon this place in a little plaza. As soon as I entered the restaurant /grocery store I saw isles of cleanly stacked food items with the kitchen on one side. I ordered samosa for an appetizer and saag & baigan bhartha with garlic naan. Their samosas are out of this world and remind me of a famous sweet shop in Amritsar that I used to visit as a kid. The baigan bhartha was smoked to perfection and the naan were fresh. The saag however was made from authentic Punjabi recipe and lacked the flavors that go in making saag one of the best dishes of northern India. Overall experience was good and the staff was very courteous.

Found a maggot or a worm in our basmati rice after eating it at home! The only reason I didn't give it 1 star is because the Butter chicken was good & decent price. Tandoori chicken was super dry and not good at all. Owners, I'm not coming back here & you know I'm going to tell my friends & family you can thank the maggot or worm I found. Disgusting!

The food I ordered was very good: lamb curry and chicken tikka masala. A little spicy for me but they don't have different levels to choose.

The kitchen in the back makes excellent food at great prices. You don't have to pay the overhead of a typical restaurant.

We love Indian food and have tried literally every restaurant in town, along with having had fresh homemade Indian food from friends, and this beats them all! It is truly the best, most delicious, authentic Indian food around! We stumbled across this small grocery store and restaurant behind Sam's club on Gosford and harris several years ago, and have been ordering food regularly from them ever since. The staff are always friendly, and the food is high quality, hot and fresh, with good portions and prices. Some of our favorites are the chicken or paneer Tikka masala, butter chicken, curry chicken, vegetable or chicken biryani, samosas, garlic, cheese or butter naan, and the cakes and sweets from the bakery counter are all outstanding. You can call your order in and pick it up, or stop in and they will cook it fresh while you wait for around 15-20 min. We won't go anywhere else for Indian food and recommend it highly! Ps the pizza next door is delicious also!

First time trying their carryout and I am impressed. We sampled the goat curry, butter chicken, samosas, naan and aloo tikki. The combination of every dish together was pleasing to the palate. Thank you, Spiceland!

Food awesome! I've tried lots of dishes but my favorites are the samosas, methi matter melai, butter chicken and any naan or paratha. Very affordable too.Order at the register. Pick up at the register.Wait time is usually 20 mins for food order.It's inside a grocery store so it's for takeout only

Food is just okay. Cheese chili is not good. Every time the dishes tastes different. Doesn't matter what spice level you order. They do what pleases them. So, I don't understand what's the point of asking for spice level. And, it's pricey for the quality of food. Do not recommend.

Great place to get products from India. I was able to find the chai tea my wife likes here. The butter chicken was good. It had a good amount of spice and flavor. Though I wish there was a little more chicken meat. Garlic naan was great. It had good amount of garlic and was pretty cheap. I like how it was a little more doughy compared to other restaurants.

Five Stars for a great getaway store selling wonderful Indian Spices and excellent food to go! I bought Samosas, Curry and Butter-chicken with rice that could compete with any local Indian restaurants. The owner was nice, kind and helpful so I will be back.

This grocery store serves by far the BEST and MOST tastiest Indian food in all of Bakersfield and beyond. The style of cooking is very traditional and not so much white washed like most Indian restaurants try to be. The workers are also very attentive and nice. Especially the cooks in the back of the grocery where the restaurant is are very nice ppl. Literally everything here tastes good my personal faves are the butter chicken and the aloo tikis but just everything tastes good. I personally see myself eating here at least 2x/month and when I go I don't just eat myself. I eat with my entire family and with friends. So far everyone I recommended this place to also said good things about them. Just order your food by phone. Takes about 30-45 minutes for food to be completed and BOOOM ENJOY !!!!!

This place is truly glorious! The assortment of spices was wonderful and THE KITCHEN!!! I felt like I was a guest at a home cooked dinner. The butter chicken and fish were delish & the portions were huge! So glad I was able to enjoy this hidden gem. I will be back!

The real deal here nothing more to say, just order your will not regret it. And while your there pick up a jar of lime pickles to go with your food.
