Highland Village has two Indian restaurants and both deserve credit. Delhi6 Indian Kitchen has built real name recognition in the area with a bar program and a full-service sit-down dining experience that draws consistent return visits. Spice & Tonic at 3090 Justin Road brings a more contemporary Indian approach to the suburb.
What neither restaurant offers is Indian food delivered to Highland Village in 10 to 15 minutes with halal-certified proteins across every menu item, individually labeled boxes for dietary-diverse households, and the Indo-Californian fast-casual format that Akash Kapoor invented in 2009 on a California food truck.
Highland Village sits directly adjacent to Flower Mound. The drive from 2717 Cross Timbers Rd to the Justin Road and FM 2499 residential and commercial corridor is 10 to 15 minutes. For a weekday lunch that doesn't involve a sit-down restaurant, or a family dinner ordered through the app on the drive home along FM 407, Curry Up Now from Flower Mound fills a format gap that Delhi6 and Spice & Tonic were not built to address.
Delhi6 Indian Kitchen is the stronger brand for Highland Village Indian dining. Full-service restaurant, cocktail program, North Indian menu with genuine depth. The bar and atmosphere make it a real dinner destination. Reviews are consistent about the quality. For a Saturday evening or a celebration meal in Highland Village, Delhi6 is the right call.
Spice & Tonic on Justin Road at Suite 306 is the contemporary option. A more modern dining approach, updated menu presentation, and a format that works for a lunch or dinner where you want to sit without the full formal restaurant experience.
What both restaurants share: they're sit-down formats. Neither delivers directly. Neither publishes halal certification status prominently. Neither has a counter-service format where food is built to order in under two minutes and delivered to a Highland Village door in 10 to 15 minutes.
That's the gap. It's not about which restaurant makes better chicken tikka masala. It's about which format fits a Tuesday lunch break, a delivered family dinner, or a catering order for a mixed-diet household in Highland Village.
The Tikka Masala Burrito: Built to Order, Delivered Hot
The Tikka Masala Burrito is the founding dish of Curry Up Now, created by Akash Kapoor in April 2009 at the first food truck in Burlingame, California. Turmeric rice, tikka masala sauce with Kashmiri chili and garam masala, HI-Slaw made from coconut milk, mango, apple, and cabbage, foil-wrapped and labeled by protein build.
The dish is built at the counter in under two minutes and holds heat in the foil wrap for 45 minutes. That's the delivery window from Flower Mound to Highland Village covered cleanly. Order through the app before leaving your office on FM 2499 and the food arrives when you do.
Tikka masala has a well-documented history: most food historians trace it to Ali Ahmed Aslam at Shish Mahal restaurant in Glasgow in the 1970s, where the kitchen improvised a tomato-cream sauce after a customer complained his tandoori chicken was too dry. That dish became one of the most ordered Indian preparations in the English-speaking world. Inside a burrito with turmeric rice, it became the founding item of a 20-location national brand covered by Forbes, Bon Appétit, Eater, and Netflix.
Naughty Naan: The Dish No Highland Village Restaurant Serves
Naughty Naan is Akash Kapoor's second invention: naan flatbread used as an Indian pizza base. Caramelized onions, jalapeño, mozzarella, cotija cheese, and halal tandoori protein or pav bhaji on top. A shared plate designed for tables.
No restaurant in Highland Village makes this dish. For Highland Village families who make the 10 to 15-minute drive to 2717 Cross Timbers Rd, the Naughty Naan is consistently the reason they came back a second time. The visual when it arrives at the table is genuinely striking in a way that most Indian restaurant dishes aren't.
The Street Food Section: What Delhi6 and Spice & Tonic Don't Consistently Serve
Kachori Chaat is Rajasthani street food: deep-fried pastry filled with spiced lentils, topped with tamarind chutney, mint chutney, yogurt, sev, and cilantro. The layered sour-sweet-crunchy combination has been part of Indian street food culture for centuries. Pav Bhaji is Mumbai street food from the 1850s: spiced vegetable mash on a flat iron with butter, served with buttered rolls.
The Indian street food tradition at Curry Up Now spans the chaat category that sit-down Indian restaurants in Highland Village don't consistently stock. Both dishes are vegetarian throughout. Both deliver well. Both are the dishes that South Asian Highland Village residents recognize and order regularly.
Highland Village is part of the Flower Mound-Lewisville corridor with a substantial South Asian community. The halal question matters, and neither Delhi6 nor Spice & Tonic prominently documents halal certification status on their websites.
Curry Up Now's halal supply chain was built by Akash Kapoor in April 2009 as the brand's operational baseline. Every chicken and lamb protein across all 20 locations is halal-certified. For Highland Village Muslim families who want Indian food delivered to their home in 10 to 15 minutes from a kitchen with documented halal sourcing, Curry Up Now from Flower Mound is the clearest available answer.
For fully plant-based diners in Highland Village, the vegan Indian food guide for Flower Mound covers the Hella Vegan Burrito with chana garbanzo masala, a spiced chickpea preparation from Punjabi cooking designed as a standalone vegan dish.
Highland Village's affluent residential character generates consistent private event demand. Diwali celebrations at Lewisville Lake area homes. Graduation parties. Anniversary dinners. The Indian catering program for Flower Mound covers delivery catering to Highland Village for all these occasions, with individually labeled boxes sorting halal, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free from one order.
For Highland Village offices along FM 2499, the same individually labeled format covers every dietary profile on a mixed corporate team without a secondary order. The full north Dallas-Fort Worth catering cluster now covers Lewisville, Coppell, and Grapevine alongside Highland Village.
