Salt 'n Spice in Camden

We were surprised when we entered the foyer and were directed through a traditional bar to the dining area, I guess previously where buffet breakfasts were served. All the staff very pleasant and helpful. Meal was good (we had a Groupon) although the samosa starter could have been hotter. Lamb Rogan and Butter Chicken very tasty. Poppadoms were strange, 1/2 a proper one then tiny crisp like ones. Rather strange tat they also did take away.

It's a take-away. The food is good, the prices lower than average, the reliability, in terms of things being ready when they said, has also been good. But the consistently unpleasant reception by the ...owner? got to be too much for me, and I will not return anytime soon.

Comí aquí el jueves 8 de noviembre por la noche. La comida era verdaderamente horrible. No sé qué había en el dhansak de pollo, pero sabía y olía realmente extraño y me hizo sentir mal al olerlo. El aloo gobi se veía y sabía que tenía una semana de antigüedad. Peor que todo eso, el camarero estaba paralíticamente borracho. Eructa sobre mi comida y constantemente choca contra cosas. No me quejé de la comida porque no estaba seguro de cómo reaccionaría. Tuve unos bocados y me fui.

Servicio horrible y comida por debajo de la media. Estuve allí en 1995 - 6 - 7 regularmente cuando tenían un menú de pre teatro. La comida era excelente, al igual que el servicio. Las visitas recientes nos decepcionan por completo. Camareros muy tristes y gruñones y la comida está mucho peor. El propietario debe tomar la iniciativa para arreglar las cosas y capacitar al personal. De lo contrario, este gran restaurante pronto será olvidado.

I ordered a portion of Chicken Tikka and I got mostly just fries. When I called to complain about it, I was told to order large portion next time.
