About Indian Food in Gateway

Gateway is Denver's far-northeast neighborhood along the DIA corridor, with Tower Road, Pena Boulevard, and the cluster of DIA-area hotels defining the daily landscape. The neighborhood is dominated by airline crews, hotel guests, DIA-area office workers, and families in the new developments along Green Valley Ranch's eastern edge.

SPICE ROOM Bluebird is a 22-minute drive south on Pena Boulevard. Catering for DIA-area hotels, airline crews, and Tower Road offices has become one of our strongest connections to the neighborhood — corporate lunch platters and crew meals for teams of 15 to 200 ship out regularly. Masala chai, chicken tikka masala, lamb biryani, hand-folded Himalayan momos, and garlic naan are the most-ordered items. We offer halal meat, vegetarian, and gluten-free options to match the diverse needs of airline crews and international hotel guests.
