Spice Island Restaurant & Takeaway

Meal with friends was lovely food excellent service very attentive and a nice vibe to a super restaurant Parking: There's parking outside or if no spaces in the pub next door, but we've never had a parking issue.

Come here tonight with a few friends - couldn't recommend the place enough. Food was top notch and the service was extremely personable.

Can’t rate atmosphere as we had a takeaway. The food arrived tepid and almost an hour later too. When it arrived, my family member found an unknown specimen in their rice. Unsure as to what it is but the picture will show. It could be edible, but we didn’t want to risk it. It’s a shame, I’ve heard good things about this place. EDIT: We also ordered two pieces of naan bread, which didn’t arrive at all.

Had a delightful meal here tonight (Mar 2024). My starter, sweet ‘n’ spicy chilli chicken was sublime. Never had anything like it before. Crisp batter & moist chicken, gorgeous flavour, topped with sesame seeds. Beautiful garlic naan, rice & chicken tikka masala. Met with owner who was lovely. It’s changed hands & menu has some real gems plus traditional dishes. Thoroughly recommend them & thanks to the lovely staff who were so attentive. 5 stars all round.

We basically tried as many dishes as we could possibly eat and I can confirm everything tasted incredible! All of our starters were were delicious, the Sheek Kebab and the wrap were super tasty but for us the Chicken Chaat and the sweet and spicy chilli chicken was our favourite. Both dishes were so rich in flavor! We loved all of the curries we tried, on the milder spectrum the Mango Korma was lush and the butter chicken was lovely and creamy but both dishes had flavor most importantly. On a spicier note the Chicken Nargis and the Rajasthani Lamb Curry were both insane, both dishes were ridiculously good! The lamb curry just topped it, the lamb was so tender, honestly it was cooked perfectly. This is an absolute must visit!

We've always had positive experiences when dining here. The food is top quality, all cooked really fresh. The staff are lovely and very attentive. The restaurant is quieter in the week but has a lovely, bustling feel on the weekend. The prices reflect the quality of the food.

Excellent sit down meal, food was great , arrived very hot , service was second to none, definitely worth a visit.
