Cardamon Spice in Moray

Just got a take away for two. It’s was fantastic. Very fresh and one of the tastiest curries I’ve ever had. Excellent!

Food was excellent. The Shajon was a new twist on a dish I've tried before and the Chicken Tikka Garlic was excellent. Pilau rice and garlic naan were well prepared and presented. Poppadoms were nice and crisp with a good selection of dips. We'll definitely be going back to Cardamom Spice.

The best Indian restaurant in town, never disappointed.

Been going here for years, and the food continues to be 5 Star! The staff are always friendly and welcoming. It's truly our favourite place to go for birthday and anniversary celebrations. ❤️

We had the most amazing takeaway from here, husband said restaurant looked really nice and the service he received was good. He had tikka and I had garlic chilli chicken and both were the best curry we have had in a long time! Will definitely be having one again and will visit the restraint!

Owner keeps all tips and employees don’t get raises.

Food was too oily and way overpriced. Very disappointing.

What have they done with their chicken pakora? It awful. Chewy and tastes more like battered fish.

It is a great place to go for a meal the customer service is amazing the food came out quick and easy the place was nicely decorated and I will be going back

Excellant food and service we are from the West midlands and know curry This was a great curry

So good we called in twice when we were staying in Brodie. Great food and service.

Really enjoyed the food. Very tasty. Service was good too. Would happily recommend.

Fantastic friendly great service and food

Vitiated tonight for a meal in the restaurant - normally have a takeaway. Everything about this meal was fantastic, food, service and atmosphere. The popadoms were very fresh and the source was seasoned perfectly, Starter - has two mixed kebabs: again perfectly seasoned and a pleasure to eat. The spices were not overpowering and the portion control was just right. Mains - had one chicken tikka baltic and chicken tiger khan. Ample amount of chicken and the source again was spiced just right and was very tasty. Do not have one complain with the food, just wish I could have eaten it all. Would definitely without doubt recommend this place, great for a takeaway, but much better as a restaurant.

Takeaway ordered online. Good food ready on time for collection. Staff friendly. .

Excellent service, the buffet was really really!

Me and my Husband had a lovely Buffet tonight .Everything really nice from starters to main to ice cream .And such a good Value. Highly recomend anyone to try it you won't be disappointed. Looking forward to next time .We'll done !

This is the second time we've eaten here and both times have been amazing. We came back for the Lamb Tikka Shajon but it turned out to be buffet night so instead took the opportunity to try some other curries. The chicken korma, lamb balti and naga morich especially were all really flavourful and the meat was perfectly tender. At £16 it was great value for poppadoms, starters, curries, rice, veg, naan, ice cream and tea or coffee. The staff are also all friendly and efficient. Would highly recommend.

Best curry I've tasted in a long time.

Excellent food and great service from friendly staff. Highly recommend eating here.

Great food, great service. Nothing more needed.

Very pleasant meal Visited last night, in summary this was a really enjoyable dining experience. Popadoms - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellently cooked, very crispy and perfectly seasoned, ordered 2 per person and wish I ordered more. The dips were tasty, fresh and plentiful. Starters - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Onion Bhajis were well cooked with a crispy exterior. Bhajis came with a squeeze of Lemmon and side salad. Mains - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chicken Chili-Garlic was excellent. Chicken Sher Tika - felt could have done with more spice, there was too much cream in the dish and this over powered it. Sides - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chips - as expected from chips Rice - cooked well and seasoned Cheese Nam - Amazing!!! Plenty of cheese and to die for!!! Restaurant - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Very clean and tidy, staff friendly and service quick. Value for Money - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ £55.00 for a meal for 2, including drinks. In summery - will definitely go back, but would chose a more spicy main dish with less cream next time.

Really nice curry. Party of 10, everyone was happy with their dish.

Had a fantastic meal for two at the Cardamom restaurant last week. Had poppadoms. Mixed meat starter. And chicken tika balti with garlic and spring onion and coriander nann. The whole meal was presented very well thanks to all. Would definitely go again if in the area would totally recommend eating here fantastic meal.

We've been before , nice cosy restaurant with low lighting and helpful staff. Your ordered food comes to the table with a hotplate in the centre of the table within 10 minutes , the warmed hand wipes at the end of your meal is a nice touch.

Ordered a take away on Christmas eve absolutely delicious...large portions very tasty...Best restaurant and take out in Forres

Good choice of food , attentive and friendly staff. Tried new dish but not to my liking on this occasion . Companions enjoyed their meal though. Place was busy so that's usually a good sign of good restaurant.

Great value Wednesday night buffet.

Good food, but I overheard the owner yelling at the staff about tips. Owner keeps all tips. Staff gets nothing.

Wonderful food beautifully cooked. Great flavours.

1st curry from here and 10/10 absolutely lovely, cannot fault and would highly recommend, great friendly service, great delivery time exceeding expectations will defo be re-ordering. Thank you

Had a family meal here tonight, the service was very good and the staff were very friendly. Lovely atmosphere and the food was excellent, large portions so we had a 'doggy' bag to take home. Will visit again soon..thank you

Always great service friendly staff good food

Great food, service and value for money

Excellent food and wonderful service!

Was on holiday in the area and fancied a Indian takeaway. So first of all half hour late. Chicken pakora, flavourless, you could squeeze the grease out of it. Chicken tikka flavourless, and 4 tiny bits of chicken. Onion Bhaji swimming in grease. Ordered the onion raita, literally some natural yoghurt with some rough chopped onions ran through it. Poppadoms were the only redeeming feature really, we threw 90% of what I ordered in the bin as it was so greasy and flavourless. Really not a good Indian takeaway…

One on the finest Indian meals I've ever eaten

We have ordered from here a few times and the meal has always been good, but we were sadly disappointed last night, after paying £4 for delivery, the curry sauce was missing, there was more onion than chicken tikka in the portion and the naan wasn't up to their usual standard, only positive thing I can say is the food arrived before th stated time

I enjoyed a truly delicious meal here. It was Friday night so the restaurant was bustling but the service was still wonderful. Great atmosphere, a lovely way to warm up after a cold day of exploring.

Really nice meal. I'm a Coeliac and they understood my requirements, food was lovely

Fantastic food, friendly staff, would definitely go again!

First time visiting here service and food excellent. Very attentive staff can't fault them. Will definitely be back very soon.

Great restaurant, friendly staff. And the food is lovely.

A flavour sensation. Enchanting aquatic displays, delightfully attentive staff and the spiciest Jalfrezi west of Kolkata.

Lamb methi...coconut rice..superb

Superb meal here last night. Delicious fresh ingredients. The chicken pakora starter was especially delicious as were the onion bhajis. All the mains (Mixed Meat Korai, Chicken Tikka Balti and Prawn Tiger Khan) tasted fantastic. Have to give top marks to the service too - both the hosts and the two girls serving were polite, attentive and very professional. Now I understand why Cardamon Spice has such great reviews. 5 stars all round.

Lovely food with fresh ingredients. Highly recommended.

Friendly, relaxed and delicious. The lamb in the curries was particularly tender. Highly recommended!

We ordered korma & tikka massala, chapathi, poppadom, onion bhaji & pilau rice to take away. £31 for two of us.I have to sy the meal was extremely bland - the sauces had no depth of flavour and their consitency was less than appetising.Avoid!

Beautiful food and great company, always the best service

Fabulous food and surroundings.

Tonight 's takeaway home delivery arrived as requested, courteous driver, excellent array of dishes, great value.

Really fancied a nice curry, and we were very disappointed. We have read previous reviews and been reccomend here. Very very grease, curry was swimming in oil, naan bread was burnt. Very disappointed, will not be ordering again

Fantastic food, cosy atmosphere, pleasant music & friendly service !

To be clear, this meal took place under CV19 restrictions. We entered and were shown immediately to our table and offered drinks. Service throughout was prompt and courteous. The starters were very enjoyable and the main courses were both very tasty and easy on the eye. The facilities were also of a high standard, both well done and immaculately clean. It was our first time using Cardamon, but we have already made plans to return.

My wife and I had one of the best Indian takeaways we have ever had last night. The menu was extensive featuring dishes with which we were not familiar as well as a large selection of the more popular meals. The service was pleasant and fast , the cartons were clearly labelled and the food excellent. My vegetable phall was the best (and hottest!) I have had in ages. Realistically priced food: this was a very good find

Just had a fantastic take away.

Booked a table at the Cardamom Spice while on holiday in Moray. We couldn't have asked for a nicer evening. The food was really excellent and very good value, with a large choice for vegetarians and vegans, and the service was excellent too. Social distancing measures made us feel very safe. Enjoyed it so much that we went back again a few days later.

Fantastic food, pity I live in Newcastle or I would be there every week ❤️

Food is excellent always a great atmosphere.

Really love the food and the service

We love this restaurant, the delivery service is also very good. The team actually let us in when they were about to shut one night and let us have a full meal, not very often that happens anywhere! The food is also really really nice

Lovely buffet, good service and a nice atmosphere.

My wife and I were in the area visiting family and went to this restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The food was really very good as was the service. We really enjoyed the background music which was a ‘fusion’ of classic UK hits and Indian sitar. Would definitely go again.

Excellent food, excellent service as always. Highly recommend

We went for the buffet night. Friendly, polite staff. A nice starter followed by a decent selection of curries. 5 of us in total (with a range of food preferences) and everyone left saying they enjoyed the meal.

A lovely evening with de-licous food - a perfect way to cheer up mid week January.

Popped in for a meal with work. Service was slow but then there was over 20 of us! Worth the wait though, food was delicious and I even got a free mint after! Will definitely go back soon.

Used to visit fairly frequently but believe that it has become a bit pricey for what it is. Service was very slow for drinks.

Good quality and quantity for the price. Nice atmosphere.

Outdated, and food was a little tasteless. Took a long time to arrive. Not terribly hygienic. Wouldn't go back.

Lovely food, good price, great service

A miserable Monday evening and early for a meeting I chanced upon this warm oasis. Very comfortable seating, attentive staff and a very extensive menu choice. I’m not too knowledgeable about Indian food, but the mixed pakora starter was nice but a little greasy. The tasty chicken biryani main course came with a large vegetarian curry side dish. Really generous portions and very good value. I would definitely come back and if I lived locally I would be a regular.

Went for a friends party food was excellent really enjoyed it. I will be back one of the best Indians about.

On a very rare occasion that family were able to babysit, we really enjoyed an evening walk and dropped in to Cardamom Spice for a meal. Great welcome, service and food was excellent. Thoroughly recommend it if you are in the area.

The restaurant was quiet when I arrived but both staff were very attentive and polite. Service was quick and efficient. The King Prawn Puri was beautiful and packed full of prawns so excellent value. It was fresh and very tasty. I had a mixed grill for main meal and it was superb. The lamb and chicken were both succulent and full of flavour. The kebab was very tasty. I'm not often round these parts but when I am I'll be straight back here.

Ordered a takeaway for 6 on a Saturday night around 8pm. The lady who took my order couldn’t have been more polite. The order took about half an hour (we only live a couple of miles away). The guy that delivered it looked like he worked in the restaurant and was really polite. The food was great, there wasn’t much left after we were finished, which is always a good sign. Will definitely order from them again!

Had a lovely meal with friends, staff are friendly and helpful. The portions are very good and selection on the menu is great.

Great food and good friendly staff.

Decided we both fancied a curry, so came here without prior booking, we where seated quickly.

Booked for a group of 6 . The restaurant was busy but service was very good. We all had different main courses and starters during to the excellent choice. All our food arrived together and there was a good interval between courses. All our group enjoyed the food . Cardamom Spice also provides an excellent take out menu and the food can be ordered online and delivered .

A good indian restaurant in Forres

For a small village it's lucky there's even an Indian takeaway at all - even better when it's tasty! Massive portions, well flavoured and pleasant staff. Can't complain at all.

We arrived when they had just opened, so we were the only customer. We ordered a starter and four mains. Despite this, the waiting time was frustratingly long. When the food arrived, it was very delicious. Improvement area is better and quicker service. If they would speed up this place could have potential.

Was in the area for a week and had a couple of takeaways over different nights Sunday and Wednesday and both were fantastic. We collected one and had the other delivered and both were as we ordered and the food high quality. We will be back when next in the area.

Service and ambiance great, food fantastic, nice to be able to enjoy a beer with the meal, for a change. Thanking you Agnes and Andy

I have been a regular local customer on and off for a couple of years, and I don't know what's gone wrong, but the last 2 take aways delivered to me (this week), are really disappointing.

Very good food on this visit the service was a bit slow but it was New Year’s Eve so it was very busy

We had a very nice meal at Cardamom spice the men had starters and enjoyed them and the girls only had main course . The food was fresh cooked and plenty of it and very tasty.

Nice clean restaurant. staff attentive. Food was standard Indian cuisine. Would use this restaurant again.

Our family ate here as a mid-week treat on our travels. The food was pleasant and the staff were very friendly. Worth stopping in if you're in the area.

Always a good service and great food

Excellent food, the only drawback is that you'll end up eating too much which says a lot about the food.

We were somewhat reticent about eating here as some work colleagues had not been there for ages. It was not a disappointment. The food was hot (spicy when asked for and temp) and beer nice and cold. The mixed tandoori platter and jalfrezi sauce are particularity tasty. Very pleasant evening!

Excellent all round as usual. If you have not been its really worth a try.

Been here so many times I've lost count! Food is amazing, I suggest you be adventurous as the menu will not disappoint.

Our last two meals here have been poor, food was cold as was the restaurant, hot plates were delivered to the table which were warm and I could place my hands on them, meal was served 10 mins later, more sauce than meat, poor value for money, no atmosphere, won't be returning.

Excellent range of dishes, all cooked perfectly.

Good food at a average price. Friendly staff

Fantastic Indian food, been here a few times for the buffet and it is superb, would highly recommend it. The staff are very friendly also. If you don't want to eat in they also provide takeaway.
