Indian Spice Tangier review: our verdict
Tikka masala and butter chicken: Indian Spice Tangier holds its own on the classics, where its cuisine feels most at home. The dishes arrive in generous portions, the service is attentive, and the street-side dining room on Rue Boutouri serves until 11:30 p.m. on weekdays and midnight on weekends, offering a comforting curry to end the day.
A solid starting point for those discovering Indian cuisine or seeking rounded flavors without hesitation, but connoisseurs may find themselves left wanting. Sauces tend to look alike from one dish to the next, a well-spiced phaal arrived bland, and the fried starters—samosas and pakoras—lack lightness. Given the prices, these inconsistencies stand out more, and the relationship between the bill and the plate does not always convince.
The dish to order: the tikka masala or the butter chicken, the most consistent items on the menu. The pitfall: asking for heat, as the kitchen remains cautious with spices. The insider tip: dine in rather than order for delivery, where an order arrived in December 2025 without rice and with cheese naans that lacked cheese.
