About Indian Food in I-70 Ski Traffic

I-70 ski traffic is a Colorado institution — hundreds of thousands of skiers and snowboarders travel this corridor every winter weekend, creating one of America's most iconic traffic jams. SPICE ROOM Arvada offers a delicious alternative to sitting in tunnel traffic: exit at Wadsworth, enjoy authentic Indian dinner, and let the worst of the backup clear.

Our warming lamb korma, spicy vindaloo, and fresh garlic naan are the perfect après-ski meal. Many ski groups now build a SPICE ROOM dinner stop into their mountain day — it's become a ritual that's as anticipated as first chair.

We've catered ski club parties, mountain house dinners, and corporate ski trip celebrations. For Colorado's ski community, SPICE ROOM has earned a permanent spot on the mountain day itinerary — just as essential as goggles and sunscreen.
