"Even by Beverly Hills standards, Spice Affair is fancy. Its expansive La Cienega dining room has multiple water fountains, conversation-starting chandeliers swinging from the ceiling, and big circular booths for family dinners or intimidating work lunches with your company’s board of directors. It’s all a bit over-the-top—and expensive—but the food is good, and we’ll make a special trip for their lamb biryani. The basmati rice and meat have been cooked so well together, there’s an almost creamy texture to it. Sure, it’s $32 (welcome to Beverly Hills), but it’s important to note that it will easily feed two grown adults." - brant cox
