Went here for our wedding anniversary. Fantastic food, friendly staff and also wonderful atmosphere. We were given complimentary drinks at the end of the meal, not because it was our anniversary, it’s something they just do here. We did however have an extra dessert with a candle in it to say than you for choosing them to celebrate our anniversary. Loved it, would definitely go back and highly recommend.

Rim Jhim Spice was recommended to us.. and boy we were not disappointed. We were greated very warmly, showed us to our table. Drinks and poppadoms ordered and received promptly. The service was attentive, but not intrusive. . Food was one of the best Indians we have had. It was so tasty. Great portion sizes. Not the cheapest but for great quality food you have to pay a justified price. Cannot wait to return in the very near future

We had a delightful experience at Rim Jhim Spice during our first visit with my vegetarian wife and two of our kids. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming ambiance.The menu had an extensive range of vegetarian options, which was perfect for my wife. She particularly loved the dish recommended by the owner which wasn't on the menu, which was bursting with rich flavors and perfectly cooked. My kids couldn't get enough of the buttery, soft Naan and the delicious lamb and chicken tikka, which had just the right amount of spice for their young palates.The service was impeccable; our server was attentive and knowledgeable, making excellent recommendations that catered to our dietary preferences. The food arrived promptly, and each dish was presented beautifully, making the meal a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds.The restaurant also provided a cozy, family-friendly environment. The staff went out of their way to ensure our kids were comfortable, offering kid-friendly menu. It was clear that they valued their younger guests as much as the adults.Overall, Rim Jhim restaurant, exceeded our expectations in every way. The combination of delicious vegetarian cuisine, exceptional service, and a warm atmosphere made it a memorable dining experience for our family. We look forward to returning soon!

the tikka masala was decent, but i bought rogan josh and chicken korai as my other two dishes and they were completely indistinguishable from each other, and also bland. they also forgot the naan, and even though it was delivered eventually i'd already eaten everything and there was no reimbursement. the naan was also bland, predictably. personally, i cannot understand the very high level of 5-star reviews. this tasted like very average buffet food to me. there are far, far better places out there

We went here 6 months ago shortly after they won an award and it was excellent. On return now it was completely different. I can only think the chef has left as the food was totally different to the point that previously it was one of best curry’s I’ve had to today where it was one of the worst. Really disappointing.

Came here on a Saturday early evening. Surprisingly plenty of tables available but had booked in advance. The food here is fantastic. Traditional Bengali cuisine and menu with very high standards. Service is quick and efficient if a little bit uniform as opposed to charming. Prices are ok. It’s rather unassuming from the outside but very typical inside. A place I think most people will revisit as it’s clearly maintaining quality of food.

A delightful and genuine Indian Restaurant experience from arrival to departure. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and attentive to details across all levels. The staff did everything possible to ensure our experience was spot on. The portions sizes were really generous for the price point and you could easily share a main dish between two persons, with side dishes to accompany them. A comprehensive drinks menu, with plenty of choice for those who like an alcoholic tipple and those who cant/don't. A nice touch after the meal was the traditional hot towels and something I've not experienced before, warm brandy for the Gents and a Baby Guinness for the Ladies, which was complimentary and not charged for. They accommodate large groups well, with all food arriving piping hot and fresh to order, even during a busy service. You must try this restaurant, you will not be disappointed.
