Bengal Spice in Belfast

Waited over 2hrs 20mins still no delivery showed lied to no idea where driver or food was. Run by clowns best avoided at all costs

Ordered a takeaway to be delivered, Arrived on time, well packaged.One suggestion would be to write in the lids of the mains 😊 Good was well cooked full of flavour, best veg biryani I've ever had! Thank you

Don't think I have ever written a bad review but this was awful, cold unedible rubbish, worried for the incoming sickness

Came to this restaurant at 7pm, waited an hour and had to ask to Order as they forgot about us which is absolutely ridiculous service then had to get told to move tables as they had overbooked themselves which caused disruption to our experience, by the time we got our meal it was half 8 and the food was nice but we ordered 3 portions of chips which came served in one bowl apparently being 3 portions but i wouldn’t even say we got a full handful each but we couldn’t be bothered ordering another portion cause we know we’d be waiting about a half hour on it to arrive, after eating we asked for the bill. Sat for over a half an hour waiting on it and it never came so we had to go up and ask for it again because by that time it was 9:15pm and we were tired of being there. Overall I will most certainly not be back was an outrageous experience.

ordered a takeaway a few times and the quality of the food is very good but the service is beyond belief .I'm surprised this place is still doing business .The cash machine appears to be broken most of the time and I was told the order would be ready in 30 mins yet almost 2 hours later and still waiting as were numerous other customers .People were returning to say part of their order was missing everyone was complaining but the owner just continued to take more phone orders ,unbelievable

Service very poor. Waited 90 minutes to be served. Bottle of Shiraz added to bill which we didn’t have

Went last Saturday night first thing to greet us was a hand written sign cash only. I wonder would this be the same on the lisburn rd. Food was tasteless my friends hadn't finished there meal and the waitress was trying to clear there plates. We ask for coffee to be told the machine was broken. We had a 10% loyalty card which stated they took and they said they didn't. My friend ask to take her food home with her to which they appeared with a tub asking her to tub it up herself. We had no drink only two soft drinks poppadoms which we where forced to take three mains 80 quid. We try to support local but that experience was rubbish won't be back and would not recommend it.

Called in yesterday on the off chance not having a booking. The server was very welcoming and so helpful throughout our stay. I ordered Mixed Grill from tbe Tandor and my wife ordered Chicken Tikka Masala, both meals were excellant. This resaurant is a real gem in times of falling standards in food. Definately will return.

We have been here for dinner a few times. On our most recent visit we enjoyed our food but we did encounter some problems. Items we never ordered appeared on the bill, which we queried and which was eventually rectified. The staff are lovely, are quick to take orders, but they visit the table too often to ask if everything is ok, and because no particular server is assigned to your table, there is a steady stream of different people coming over. It often feels like they are just bored. It’s unnecessary and annoying. Most irritatingly, they couldn’t get their hands on our glasses and plates to take them away fast enough, even before we’d finished our drinks and food. It’s not as if there were other customers waiting to take our table. Usually there is a long wait between getting the bill and actually being able to pay. All of these issues with poor customer service point to a lack of good staff training and restaurant management.

Food was fantastic, staff member mark was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed, helped us pick an order as we were unsure what to get, would recommend and go again for sure

Food was amazing. No complaints from a table of four and Mark was an incredible server. 10/10 ❤️ - Will be back. Mark made our night with his service. Very welcoming and great at what he does. We tipped.

This is our local Indian Restaurant and the food is good, however, the standard of customer service has dropped considerably. On our last visit after booking a table, we arrived on time and although we counted 6 staff members, nobody came to meet or greet us, instead, they were chatting to a friend who came in to collect a takeaway. After several minutes of being ignored, we left disappointed as we were looking forward to a nice meal after a busy week. This lack of customer service needs addressed otherwise customers will go elsewhere and we all know what that leads to, come on management, sort it out?

Food just OK abrupt service from staff worse than that the table top was loose whilst having the meal lifted drink that were unfinished took orders and never came with them definitely will never be back

Just ordered a meal and after waiting 1hr 20mins the order arrived. At best the meal was lukewarm and greasy. I've used this restaurant quite a few times but I don't think I would be recommending it again. It's definitely gone downhill

Just had a lovely meal in Bengal Spice tonight and the food was really good. Service was very attentive & Mark ensured we had a wonderful evening. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

A large group of us went here. Everyone was impressed with their food. Food is fresh and full of flavour. Service was attentive. Can bring your own wine which also made it very reasonably priced.

Local restaurant for me. Have been several times and sat in for a family meal and also had takeaway - I really like the vegetarian madras. (bit odd that they add brussel sprouts, so I ask for these to be left out). Nice ambience and...
