IMI'S Spice Kitchen in Southend-on-Sea

Ordered this with the family, my mums partner Craig recommended this while I’m back from university for the Christmas break and I would honestly say this was one of the best Indian takeaways I’ve had, great flavour, arrived on time and great service overall.

Best Indian food I’ve tasted in a long time, Friendly staff, prompt service & reasonably priced, there are lots of Indian Takeaways in the area, but this stands out by far Well done

Great food, made it more mild as asked and great customer service

Food is always piping hot and very tasteful best Indian around

Was very nice would definitely recommend

Ordered with my mother in law tonight. And she agreed it’s the best Indian she has had! Thank you

Had a takeaway delivered from here this evening 1-12-24 Everything I expected and more. -Good portion size -High quality meat cooked well -Vibrant flavours -Fresh, clean and not too greasy You will become my new local Indian take out. Thank you very much.

Absolutely fantastic food. Great taste, great quality thank you

Lovely food, the dhansak is a bit spicier than other places 🥵🤣

Always a top tier experience, thanks guys!

Really lovely dishes! First time ordering from here and it did not disappoint. Everything was hot, portion sizes were great and everything was so flavourful. Would order again from here. Thank you!

Lovely food. First time trying IMI's and will definitely be going bacj for more!

As ever, perfect. The food is always superb.

Last Saturday I ordered a meal for 6 adults, for two special birthdays. I can honestly say it was the best Indian food I have ever had, everythink was absolutely perfectly cooked and extremely tasty. It is shame I don't live in this area if did I would be down every week, but be assured that myself and family will continue to support your restaurant. Thank you Dave Brewer

This has to be the best Indian in town…we have tried quite a few!! Always fresh hot food, I always ask for chilli and garlic to be added to the keema naan and they always read the comments and we get what we asked for! We have tried quite a few different curries and we haven’t been disappointed, as they are always full of flavour. Would highly recommend, portion sizes are always good too! Food always arrives on time or early…it’s never late! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely food and will always use this as our new take away ! Food was perfect ! Thanks Sam and the team !

My 5th takeaway from here and each one has been exceptional. My go to Indian takeout. Flawless everytime. Highly recommend the jalfrezi and the dansak. Absolutely delicious

Lovely meal. Will definitely be ordering from here again.

First time ordering and I think I’ve found a new regular. Everything was perfect. Just a comment on portion size to say they were big/ good size. I see a previous review saying the portions were small and almost put me off ordering. So just incase anyone else is thinking the same just to reassure they are good size portions.

Quantity was too small, lamb was too chewy

Thanks for another lovely meal, and it was great to meet you. The chicken shashlik and lamb batting dansak were really flavourful. See you again soon!

our fav indian always delicious 😋 thank u!

Not impressed this time I’m afraid standards have slipped. I spent almost £80 here to receive only small portion sizes. Chicken in curries was quite firm. Onion barges small and not fresh. Overall disappointing

From Kevin and james best foot in Southend lovely owners food is fresh tasty give it ago

Lovely food with generous portions. Thank you for the warm welcome upon collection too. See you all again soon.

Accidentally sent your driver to the wrong post code and he still delivered it. Legend. Wouldn’t let me tip him on the app

Omg ordered first time and this was absolutely delicious !!! Perfect portions price is good and tasty we will be ordering again and recommend to our friends and family!

Delicious as always. Thanks guys!

Had a great meal really well cooked that we all enjoyed. Collected from the shop and everyone is so friendly.Thanks

Lovely food, Brilliant vegetarian options !

Curry was split inside. Driver went to a different side of the city and was extremely late

Fantastic food best in the area

Very tasty once more would recommend to others many thanks.

The taste was not bad but the potions for the price are crazy! First time and last time for me unfortunately.

Fantastic food. Packed full of flavour and a nice kick to the Madras which is often missing in lots of other restaurants dishes. Definitely recommend 👌

We order from Imi's on a regular basis. Best Indian food in Southend, hands down.

was very nice will differently order from them again 🙂

Food is always very good from here. Struggles to find a find a decent Indian when we moved. This is be far the best around.

Great food best Indian we have tasted! Great service over the phone and delivery was quick and delivery service was great! 10/10 role on the next order

Best Indian restaurant in Southend.

Best Indian take out in Southend. Definitely recommend, order direct on their website.

Excellent food, delivered piping hot. Will be using again definitely.

Second time ordering and just as fantastic as before. Great value for money and the taste absolutely fabulous.

This place has quickly become our go to place for a lovely curry. The Saag Paneer is beautiful, and it goes on every order we place! Cannot recommend enough 👌🏻👌🏻

We always eat from here and always enjoy our meal. but tonight main meal missing, had to reheat rest of food once item arrived, child’s meal was not good nuggets& chips were hard. Will still continue to order from yous as love your food.

First time trying IMI’S Spice Kitchen and WOW! What a beautiful meal! Everything had so much flavour, everything was piping hot and it was probably the best Indian takeaway I’ve ever had! This will definitely be our new regular! Thank you so much 😍⭐

The food is always delicious, hot and in generous proportions - often enough to fridge part for snack the next day.

Yet another fantastic meal best in Southend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

1st time having a takeaway from here, would definitely have it again. Thanks Michael and hannah

Quality of food is brilliant and so tasty. The best Indian takeaway in the area.

A little late but great customer service, they called me to inform me of the late issue - which wasn't even necessary as they were only a little late from the predicted time. Food was fantastic, great quailty and tasted great!

Tried this over our normal India due to really good reviews but left disappointed. £14 for prawn tandoori to only receive four prawns...onions bajis are tiny, naan on small side and chicken bhuna lacks flavour.... Will probably not be ordering again unfortunately.

Always very good, best Indian we’ve found in Southend.

Naz and Will are so very kind and helpful. The menu is full of variety and the food is delicious. I highly recommend IMI's. X 💜🌸💜💜💜

Lovely food, delivered piping hot. As always. Thank you!

We have just had a takeaway from here. My wife is a coeliac and we called the restaurant. They were knowledgeable and very helpful. The food was amazing, the best I've had in ages. We have a new favourite curry house 😄😘

Once again the food was AMAZING! Never fails to disappoint! S&N thank you so much for the collection experience once again 👌🏻

This is easily the best Indian we have had. The flavours are amazing, the portion size fantastic. Delivered well within to estimated time. Looking forward to trying a few more dishes from Imi's spice in the future.

We've ordered from Imi's quite a few times now and it's been fantastic every time - all really tasty, at an amazing price, and delivered hot. The dansak and tarka dall are our favourites! Their website ordering system is really easy to use, and the team are all very friendly.

Delivery arrived on time, and the food tasted amazing, I would definitely order again! 10/10 my only complaint would be the naan was slightly cold! But bread gets cold so quick so can’t really blame them! So overall a success! Would defo order again

Food is always very tasty and delivered hot

Beautiful food, always hot and delivered on time.

Excellent food, fresh chicken cooked right lots of sauce thanks!

THE BEST Indian Takeaway in Southend. Never a bad word to say about the food - it’s amazing and fresh! The Owners are lovely and always great service. Thank you Naz and Sam!

Amazing food, amazing front of house staff and the owners are just so lovely. The food never disappoints. Definitely the best Indian food in Southend

Tried the Korma tonight. Lovely and flavourful, red hot when delivered & the lamb in it was melt in the mouth. 😋😋. My drink was missing. The delivery driver told them when he got back to the shop & they called to sort it out. Great customer service. 🌟

The order came quickly and the food was really nice

amazing food, always piping hot and tasts so fresh, the lamb was melt in the mouth tender. and the service just as great as the food. thank you.

amazing food our new favourite 😍

Always great food,,lovely delivery staff. We wouldn't order from anywhere else. 5 star

My favourite Indian! Thank you for dealing with my pregnancy cravings! Simply the best x

Amazing food as always. Delicious. We both had biryani's this time. Very tasty and very substantial portions. Excellent service from the lovely friendly owners .We 100% recommend Imi's .

Simply exquisite dishes with an authentic flavour , always happy with service and ordered many times

Fifth time ordering and food has been absolutely incredible every time. Always on time and piping hot on arrival. definitely found my new favourite Indian in Southend! fantastic all round.

Order a delivery today as been cooking all day. The food is amazing but I would not rate the delivery driver was very rude and left my food in the shop below me

My favourite Indian Takeaway😊, food is delicious 😋

food was great, would eat here again. food was delivered piping hot and early

Fantastic food, as always! Delivered piping hot and on time. Thank you!

First time ordering from here as my original place had closed down. I’m really quite fussy when it comes to food and this was absolutely stunning! Not only was the food glorious, but was hand delivered by the owner who was extremely friendly and helpful. Looking forward to my next order.

Came up to southend for a night to spend with my wife and though trying out this indian cusine and it was unbelievable foods taste was 10/10 if your up this side you must try and trust me you wont regret its a family run business the owner him self is a very humble man much respect to him keep it up brother

I never leave a review. ordered on people's reviews and wasn't disappointed. very nice and wasn't overpriced.

Ordered for the first time and I was not disappointed. Delicious food, lovely staff and the food was prepared quickly. Would order again 😋

Since finding this place we have never looked back. Really nice people and food is great! 10/10 as always.

Only had take aways, but every time it’s been absolutely lovely.

Brilliant food ! Lovely and hot ! Will definitely order again. 100%

Special care is taken with my allergys. I have ordered a number of times they will check and will adapt dishes for me. Food is great, not greasy and full of flavour. My go to takeaway.

Great food, as always. Friendly and polite service.

really delicious, nothing was oily, just very flavoursome

3rd time we’ve had take out from them. Food is always super tasty, hot and on time! Definitely best curry house in the area! Lady that delivers is super friendly as well! All in all lovely experience!! ❤️❤️

These folks do some great dishes, and at a pretty good price too. Definitely recommend.

Third time ordering from here and each time has been lovely. Great service when ordering and on delivery too. Food is really nice, I would definitely recommend.

Unfortunately the meat in each dish was very dry and tough which took away our enjoyment of the food.

First time ordering from here all I can say is NOM NOM. Owners are lovely and polite. We only ordered picky bits but was lovely. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. we will definitely be ordering again. Thanks

Amazing food and fast delivery

Amazing as always! Loved the Bombay Aloo 😋

Got a collection tonight again the food tasted great was lovely and hot, full of spice in the balti jalfrazi special. A lot of places don’t add to much spice but this is spot on. Really enjoyed again. 10/10

always excellent ... nice touch when the owner delivers 👍

Haven’t had a bad delivery experience from here. Lovely food, great service. Tonight I had poppadums, lamb samosas,garlic naan and lamb dupiaza and mint sauce which I love, so refreshing, not thick and claggy like others Would recommend.

Phoned to make sure they could repeat a meal I’d had recently as I’m lactose intolerant. Delivered on time by a lovely lady. The food was piping hot, flavourful and plenty of it. Patrick

Great value for money. I ordered the meal for one and it was fantastic. Arrived hot, earlier than expected and was very filling. I would absolutely recommend and definitely will order again.
