Spice Circle food makes you feel like you’re back home in Pakistan. Every single thing we have tried here is amazing and the ambiance this restaurant has creates a different level of nostalgia. My family and I have visited multiple times to try their food and trust me - you have to get their haleem. I can’t describe it but it is the best haleem I’ve had in my life. Their handi is also delicious (family favorite) and any kabob you order will win your heart. My husband likes to order the lamb chops always and my siblings order their samosas and chai frequently. They bring you the chai in these madka/clay cups that elevate the taste and experience! Also if you get a chance, definitely try their breakfast specials. Their halwa puri is super delicious and fresh. Best of all, the restaurant provides catering and it is our favorite place to order from. Food is always fresh, plentiful and tasty. We can’t say enough of how amazing Nouman bhai and his team is. So happy they’re opening their Ashburn location now, we will be frequent customers!

Visited Spice Circle and had a great experience! The staff was friendly and welcoming. We ordered biryani and the anda shami burger. The biryani was decent, but I really liked the shami burger - which was different than what I expected in a good way and tasted pretty good. The portions are big too. Worth a try if you’re craving desi flavors!

5/5 stars I love Spice Circle Desi Tadka The Chicken Kahrai and Lacha Partha are so good. Everything is made fresh, which is amazing. The service is also great. Ali Bhai and the girl at the counter are very patient and helpful. If you want the best Halal food in the DMV area, go to Spice Circle! The Chat Papri is also delicious. Highly recommend ?

The chicken biryani I had was absolutely delicious spicy with a generous portion of tender chicken and flavorful basmati rice, and special thanks to Ali for his warm hospitality and the all other staff was very nice. Would definitely will be back for their special kharahi. Thank you spice circle for serving zabiha halal food its really hard to find these type of restaurant.

Here is the story: I had read a lot of good reviews, posts and social media shares about Spice Circle but didn’t get a chance to experience it myself. Today, I had the opportunity to be in the area and gave it a try. It was the best by far. The food was amazing. Ali, the owner, is a great person. He will do his best to make you feel special and find connection. Shafi Ahmad, one of the chef made the best and mouth watering Chapli Kabob. Overall, a very positive and welcoming wholesome experience. I highly recommend this place.

Food was amazingly delicious. I have tried white curry for the first time. Very authentic taste . No words for golgapi” always been my fav. Staff super friendly and serve you like a family member. Neatness was alright due to almost we reach 1 hrs before closing s no complain. They served us with smile and love. I can recommend anyone who love Pakistani authentic food. Give it a try. We might go back and. Try different dishes.
