Of all the indian restaurants I've tried in Chiang Mai, Le Spice is my favourite. This place identifies as an indian, thai, and seafood restaurant. My suggestion: go indian.
The sets start at 99 baht and generally include two curries, a dahl, raita, papadum and rice. If you're with a group of people, it's always fun to order a number of dishes a la carte and share. Just think, the more people you're with, the more dishes you can try.
The menu is extensive. To aid the selection process, decide what kind of curry you're in the mood for [vindaloo, masala, saag, etc.] and then choose the meat/vegetable [chicken, mutton, beef, fish, paneer, etc].
To get there, drive down the night bazaar road and about midway you'll see the Kalare complex on your left. There is a Doi Chaang Coffee at the end of the complex. Turn immediately left down the soi and you'll see the brightly-lit Le Spice sign on the right.

Le Spice is a fabulous place and is a standard and no secret with us locals. Note: The Doi Chang Coffee shop is no longer at the end of the soi... Instead, look for the red Siam Commercial Bank which is also on the corner and turn left. This soi is called Charoenpratet Lane 6 and is flush with the tail end of the Le Meridien Hotel building on the opposite side of Changklan Road. There is also a very huge "Le Spice" sign up high on the building of the restaurant, once you're heading down the lane. Enjoy!
