Just wow! I have never had this type of fusion before and I thought I’d give it a try. Completely exceeded my expectations! I would recommend the honey masala melt, it was delicious! I loved that it wasn’t too spicy. If you’re in town make sure to stop by!

Was visiting my hometown of Ellenville - finally stopped into Ellenville Spice Fusion (next to Dominicks Pizzaria). Got a 9 piece for $14.99. Brought it home and was so pleased - hot, crispy, SEASONED! Meat was juicy and flavorful and the skin was crackling and pleasantly spiced, with a tiny kick. Can’t beat the price, either. So glad to have an affordable and delicious chicken place in that town, it definitely deserves it. Everyone should check it out! I also can’t wait to try out their other offerings, like the chicken sandwiches and rice bowls. Will definitely come back again - plus the gentleman working the counter was pleasant! 10/10!

Got a tikka boti kabab over rice and I was so amazed by all the different spices! I’ve never had anything like that before. I’ll definitely be bringing my friends and family next time I come back. The staff members were all friendly and helped me with their recommendations and made me feel very welcomed. Will be back very soon!

My best friend and I went hiking at Minnewaska today and afterwards went for some delicious food from Ellenville Spice Fusion. We had never been here before, but found them online while searching for places to eat. The food was so good! We both ordered the Cluckin 845 chicken Waffle Sandwich. She had non-spicy (just right for her), and I had spicy (a nice heat which cleared my sinuses). The waffle was warm, buttery and soft, the chicken tenders had a crisp crunchy breading on the outside and tender juicy chicken on the inside, there was a nice heat to the seasonings and the chipotle aoili was full of flavor. There was a cool crisp crunch to the slaw and some tang from the crisp pickle. A perfect blend of textures and flavors! I ordered the Honey Masala Melt to-go for later consumption. We had the mango lassi to drink and it was so smooth and delicious! The gentleman who took our order and made our food was very nice. We will definitely be back! No wait for a table, but only the one gentleman working, so we did wait a bit for our food. Wait time was not more than any usual restaurant.

The butter chicken was runny, tasted watery, definitely needs a lot of work, needed salt and proper texture. But the overall taste was okay. My husband liked the lamb over rice. I am really hoping they will work on their food a little bit more because I would love to go back. Mango lassi was 10/10. Definitely going back for that.
