"Best food we've had from IHOP in years. They have truly stepped their game up. The Breakfast Family Feast with Waffles was delicious. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the hash browns were crispy. "
"I ordered the split pancakes and french toast and two eggs and four sausages. the French toast was rubbery the eggs weren't even 2 eggs and they were Yogi, ordered hard eggs. then in the bag they gave me 24 packs of salt. I don't recommend this spot. I ordered this dish all the time I just didn't like the way it was made today."

"I generally like Wonder. I order from them pretty often. For the price, the food is a good quality, although the premium pricing would be more suited for a more premium offering. The potions are often lacking as well. Ordered their Indian menu tonight, and got a chicken tikka with 4 pieces of chicken and 7-8 pieces of potato. Not much sauce either. Same with the lamb vindaloo. Lots of potatoes. Not much lamb (although a bit more than the 4 pieces of chicken). Kind of disappointing. Almost feels like I got cheated. Flavors are ok. A bit more spice would go a long way, especially in Indian dishes. Overall not bad...Just do a little better Wonder."
"The chicken Tikka wasn't creamy and just tasted very tomato based - more like a stew and I wasn't a fan of the potatoes - the wings were spicy but didn't taste like an Indian rub and were fatty like frozen Tyson wings. The naan I got because of the deal, but it was really just pita bread- not real Indian naan. Overall- a disappointing experience. I wouldn't recommend."

"I ordered the chicken tikka masala and saag paneer lunch combos with a side of the buttered naan. Everything came packaged nicely and it was still hot after delivery. The chicken tikka masala was delicious. Generous chicken pieces unlike some other places. It was my first time trying saag paneer and it was really good! Large pieces of naan as well. Would definitely recommend this place."
"Amazing as always. Fresh, fair portions and packaged well enough that it's still piping hot after a 20 minute car ride. I've ordered from here a few times now. There are several Indian restaurants closer to me, but I always go with Inde Spice. They also offer some amazing deals."

"I'm disappointed with my order. The menu says the chicken korma is enough for two, but it arrived in an extra small container and had maybe 5 chunks of chicken (barely makes up a single chicken cutlet). I've ordered this dish from many other establishments and it's always much bigger than this, for the price I cannot justify ordering again. "

"Everything I've ever had here was incredible except the Mac and cheese. That was horrifyingly bad. Nothing in my life is holier than pasta and cheese. My roommates and I just kept coming back to it because the portion was massive but we couldn't even save it with doctoring. It was such a waste of food and money that I'm posting this like two months later because it still makes me sad. Some spices just don't belong in a cheese sauce - couldn't work out if it was cumin or a sad cinnamon or what. I've adored this place for years and will continue to but please please Taco Island, you guys have to stop disgracing pasta and cheese in this way."
