I cannot explain how much I love this restaurant! I regularly go for many Indian meals but this is one place I just cannot get enough of. Upon serving you poppadoms, they give you the most incredible pickle tray (I've never seen so much variety for dips), and all of their food is beautiful. If you ask them to tailor it to your liking, they always nail it. The waiting time is very fair and the staff are incredible. Abdul and his family have made this restaurant a warm and welcoming space. If you are a curry lover and you haven't been here yet, you're missing out! There's loads of parking around the area too!

Our second visit…on both occasions my wife had to take the day off work the next day. They always try and up sell dish’s which are not on the menu, and won’t give a price…hence a meat sizzler starter for two with two medium yellow prawns, three shish kebabs, and two pieces of chicken with a ton of onions for £29!!. They had a rowdy table come in on a Wednesday early evening who ruined the ambiance…credit to staff who after a while moved them upstairs ( by this time a few customers had already gone upstairs to move away from the noise!!) and to top it off…they charged for the containers and bag for us to take the leftovers away!!! .we as a party of four heard so much good reviews about this place, hence the visits….never again!!! And the food wasn’t great either…Aldi ready meal at best

I've been dining here for many years, it's ALWAYS top notch. There's a pickle tray that's rivalled by none, the very best there is. Fancy something not on the menu? Ask...they're always happy to devise and create around you particular taste. I came here on Friday 25/4/25...tried for the first time Lamb Hirayali...flipping gorgeous! If you like alot of flavour with a good deal of spice...try this, or the Naga, if you're a fan of heat with a finish of flavour. You could of course, go the Adam Richman route, and have the Chicken/Lamb Joypur..🥵

We went to Spice Bazaar tonight for a last minute date night as we'd never tired it before and we'll definitely be back again. The staff were amazing and helped us pick out dishes based on what we like. The food was delicious - I tried the king prawn tawa and we got loads of sides, so safe to say we had plenty of leftovers to take home, which I'm looking forward to devouring.

One year ago. Probably one of the best curries I've had. We were really looking to be going again. Now we've had a second visit. Food and service, good. Unfortunately it was spoiled as we were charged £2.50 for 3 takeaway foil tubs, for our leftovers, which was slipped on to the bill between the rice and the bread. Bazaar! As if we wouldn't notice. £2.50. We've never been charged for foil tubs anywhere, ever before. If they charge this for takeaway orders it must cost a fortune. We weren't even asked/told there would be a charge. We paid, of course, as we didn't have much choice. We also noticed we were about to be overcharged for one of the starters. Caught that one. Such a shame. 😔

De principio a fin, el servicio fue impecable, y la comida superó todas las expectativas. Cada uno de nosotros estuvo de acuerdo, ¡fue el mejor curry que hemos probado!

I had really high hopes for this restaurant But turned out to be really disappointing. We had a table of 9 and squeezed us on a table then moved us to a bigger table. The waiter was polite but also trying to order our starters for us, if not it certainly seemed that way!! The food was nice . We all felt as though we were being rushed towards the end of our meal. When we did finish there was about 4 members of staff staring at us and made us feel really uncomfortable. We spent £350 which was quite high and when we worked it out they had overcharged us but we couldn’t be bothered to argue. We didn’t get any mints or even a complimentary drink which most curry houses do. I can’t believe this place has won awards because there are far better restaurants than this. Overall very disappointed and will not be coming back!!

It’s not so much the food, quality of service or atmosphere that lets this restaurant down. It’s the speed at which they generally try to get you through the dining.experience. You feel rushed and hassled, with no ultimate finesse like mints or ‘reading the table’ it’s just ‘bush bash bosh’ !

I like the review written by spark dialogue, he or she really know their stuff and I am guessing that they are Bangladeshi or Indian or possibly Pakistani because they speak with authority it is very well written and sums up what's wrong with the place very well. The so-called award winning lamb Jaipur which they spell wrongly I have had only the once because it was so lacking in spices. It tastes slightly of red chili powder slightly garlicky but tastes absolutely nothing like an authentic traditional lamb curry. This place is not an Indian restaurant and they shouldn't be advertising themselves as an authentic Indian restaurant. The food is Anglo Bangladeshi and a very bad example of it to boot . I don't think there's a single dish on the menu that is actually authentic Indian or authentic Bangladeshi or authentic Pakistani. I started eating Indian food in 1965 and I've been cooking it on and off since 1970 so I do have a few years experience. I am trying to state what's wrong with the food, basically the chefs have no idea how to cook properly. Or if they do know how to cook they are not doing it There is no blending of spices and ingredients where The end product is a kind of Flavour explosion and is far greater than the sum of all the individual parts or components or ingredients. Do the chefs ever eat their own food and if so what do they think of it compared with say how their wives or sisters or aunties etc cook at home. There is no subtlety or blending if you want it spicy but you end up with a dish full of red chili powder. I will never visit the place again, there are so many better places in Leicester. How did they win any awards. That really puzzles me did they employ another chef especially for the competition or did they get their wifes' to do the cooking, beats me a complete enigma. There's a restaurant next door to them that vastly better I cannot say how much better it is. It would be like comparing a skateboard with the Rolls-Royce Or MacDonald's with a top Parisienne restaurant. Avoid avoid avoid at all costs you have been warned you have been advised

Los chefs no parecen ser capaces de cocinar correctamente. La comida es casi completamente sosa e insípida o si lo quieres picante solo se tiran en polvo de chile rojo, no hay evidencia de mezcla sutil hábil de especias para dar ese estallido encantador de sabor en la boca que la auténtica comida del sureste asiático da. El estilo de cocina es Anglo Bangladesh porque fue inventado en Inglaterra y generalmente es cocinado por Bangladesh, en realidad no tiene nada que ver con la cocina de Bangladesh. Es difícil decir realmente lo que está mal con la comida porque como todo está mal con ella no hay nada bueno con ella. Nada de eso se parecía a la auténtica comida del sudeste asiático ni en lo más mínimo. Los kebabs tienden a estar demasiado secos tienen esta salsa roja gunge Tandoori por todas las cebollas que estropea todo es solo Crudo y áspero y listo dale palmaditas en tu plato, es simplemente horrible. No hay habilidad ni finura ni chef magistral detrás de esto. Es la versión de café de transporte de comida india. En realidad eso es ser demasiado amable que probablemente estaría bastante bien, pero la comida aquí no, es poco apetitosa y o sosa o llena de chile rojo en polvo y algunos platos están cargados de azúcar. Horrible absolutamente horrible. Pero hay muchos lugares mejores en Leicester así que evita este lugar no pierdas tu dinero ve al lado hay un súper restaurante al lado que sirve auténtica comida india donde saben cómo mezclar especias adecuadamente para dar una amplia gama de sabores maravillosos que explotan en la boca, la comida es deliciosa maravillosa. Un ejemplo de lo que me refiero es a su cordero Jaipur que escriben mal en el menú. Este es uno de sus platos galardonados, pero Dios sabe cómo ganó cualquier premio, es bastante soso, sabe un poco a chile en polvo y un poco a ajo y eso es todo, no hay gran sabor de la mezcla de muchas especias. ¿Cómo ganaron algún premio con él? ¿Hicieron que otro chef viniera especialmente para la competencia? Me gana porque la comida que probé allí nada ganaría ninguna competencia excepto el premio Booby. Por último, sugiero que los chefs de Spice bizarre vayan al restaurante de al lado para algunas clases de cocina.

This little gem of a restaurant never fails to delight us. The whole experience of enjoying a family meal together is something that this restaurant excels at. From the moment you walk through the door you are treated like old friends. The food though, is something else! I have had many of the dishes and none of them fail to disappoint. Always hot , flavoursome and beautifully presented. Theres nothing not to like. Infact as the choice before you is so vast, its a good excuse to make plans for another visit! We agree wholeheartedly that this place is the best Indian restaurant in Leicester hands down. Already thinking of the next celebration...

The food was too salty to my taste and I didn’t expect the chicken tikka to be salty. This was the first time I had Indian food that was salty. One of the dipping sauces in the hors d’œuvres was super salty too. And by « salty » I mean « not balanced » and « not good for health ». I might have ordered a wrong dish. They might have nailed other dishes but apparently there’re some dishes they need to work on how to control the level of saltiness. The service was great by the way.

The food was good, as usual. But when I went to pay at the counter I saw the word "Jewish" had been crossed out from their religious holidays calendar. Just that word, nothing else. This casual anti-Semitism has left a bitter taste in my mouth. Response: I was looking around for a list of take away prices for information. On the counter, upright by the wall, I saw a book (probably a diary of some sort) with the first page showing a list of religious holidays. I didn't mention it to the staff then because I was too disturbed by it. I assume you somehow didn't know about it since you're condemning it. Now that you know where it is I hope you'll do something about it.

Today, I had the unfortunate experience of dining at Spice Bazaar in Leicester, and it was nothing short of disappointing. Despite its accolades, the restaurant failed to deliver on multiple fronts, from the quality of the food to its authenticity. We ordered the Chicken Rezalla, expecting a rich and flavorful dish. Instead, what we received was a far cry from any Rezalla (see the images of red colour shredded chicken masala)we had ever tasted. The dish lacked the depth and complexity that one would expect from a well-prepared Indian curry. Furthermore, the Jaipur Chicken, misspelled as “Joypur” on the menu, added to the overall feeling of inauthenticity. This typographical error might seem minor, but it speaks volumes about the restaurant’s attention to detail and commitment to authentic cuisine. What was even more disappointing was the realization that Spice Bazaar, despite being an award-winning establishment, does not serve authentic Indian cuisine. Instead, it is run by a Bangladeshi team, and while Bangladeshi cuisine can be delightful, it is not what one expects when seeking authentic Indian flavours. Leicester, known for its diverse and high-quality culinary scene, deserves better. The experience was a stark reminder that awards can often be subjective and do not always reflect the true quality of a restaurant. Spice Bazaar’s recognition in the market seems to be more about marketing than genuine culinary excellence. This is a prime example of how a market economy can sometimes fail to prioritise the customer’s true dining experience. In conclusion, Spice Bazaar was a major letdown. For those seeking authentic and high-quality Indian food in Leicester, I would recommend looking elsewhere. The combination of poor food quality and the lack of authenticity makes this a restaurant I cannot endorse. Response Thank you for your response to my review. I would like to address some points you mentioned, as there are some inaccuracies that I believe need clarification. Firstly, while we did encounter a friendly staff member at the beginning of our meal, another staff member later displayed a rough attitude, which detracted from our overall experience. I did not mention this in my initial review as I hoped the restaurant would reflect on their service without specific prompts. Secondly, at no point during our meal were we asked for our feedback on the food. The claim that we commended the food and service throughout our dining experience is misleading, as there was no such discussion. The only interaction beyond standard service was when someone asked us where we were from, specifically if we were from Bangladesh, which we found unprofessional. I appreciate that the Joypur (Jaipur) dish is a popular choice and has been enjoyed by many, including notable figures. However, food preferences are subjective, and while it may suit many tastes, it did not meet our expectations. I am open to providing more detailed feedback directly if it would be helpful. It's evident that your chefs have significant experience, and I believe that with some adjustments, your dishes could appeal to a broader range of diners. Thank you again for your attention. I hope to see improvements and look forward to dining with you again in the future.

For a general night out ,it's okay, I wouldn't recommend a romantic meal there .It's too small and dependent on the clientele, may be too loud . They do very well with takeaways and some friends and family have recommended that. It's a personal choice but I wouldn't go there again. My family enjoyed their meals ,though I have tasted better elsewhere. Sorry, Spice Bazaar, just not my curry favourite.

After watching adam richmans show i had to dine in and try the chicken joypur. WOW the curry was the best ive ever had. We also got recommended the king prawn tawa with lemon rice. I can now see why this is the best curry house in leicester. If you are looking for a curry to try SPICE BAZZAR is the place to be. Service was excellent.

If you want an amazing curry then this is the place to go. Having recently moved to Leicester we have tried several places and were almost giving up on finding a good curry. Then we visited spice bazaar. Totally delicious. Can’t wait to revisit.

Arrived Sunday for the first time on recommendation. No warm greeting, small restaurant and tables too crammed next to each other even though floor upstairs was empty full of tables and unoccupied -Drink spilt on my husband, table and floor, which I might add I cleaned the floor myself, table cloth changed almost immediately manager I think looked more embarrassed than apologetic, said thats okay mistakes happen.Really ! Not good enough.. We were not offered to move! Popperdoms offered I thought was complimentary was not advised was chargeable when the bill came nothing was taken off the price or even offered complimentary It was almost like we were not wanted there and was catered vastly for the non ethnic Pictures on the walls (the manager posing with so many of his guests no ethnicity) suggested a communal experience but far from it. Very disappointed indeed. **********RESPONSE BELOW FROM OWNER******** Foul and offensive? Do you know the meaning of that when you have accused my son of the incident rather than excepting your waiter made a mistake hence your blatant comment….I am absolutely livid of your response- Might I add I have a couple who was a witness willing to defend my comment your waiter approaching us with the tray had not even placed the tray on the table and the bottle collapsed !!??- You know the truth and now I know and everyone knows you will say anything to restore your reputation even at the cost of your customer- definitely not for us your establishment we paid u my hard earned money of £76 for a baseless comment from you, as for asking about the meal it was not asking us about our experience which was equally important and as for complimentary your far from Understanding or respecting consumers feedback and experience…. Shame on you!!! Spice Bazzar (owner) 24 minutes ago Thank you for the review Firstly we cater for all we find the word catering for the English very offensive and foul Secondly it was your son whom was at fault for dropping the drink from the waiters service tray Thirdly we do not offer complimentary at our restaurant and never have During your dining we always asked between courses how was the email and the response was very good This review in question has flabbergasted us and not only that we find this very offensive

Incredibly tasty food - we had sizzler starters and a range of mains, all absolutely amazing and probably the best curry I've had for a long time. Would definitely return!

Best lamb chops in town, hands down! Nice thick sized chops, food and service was banging too! The green spicy chutney is the 1 with the different meats! Ma sha Allah! Allahumma barik! Best chops I've ate in ages! The owners/staff seem down to earth and humble too, good family vibe! Would definitely scope this spot out! 👌

I love this place, I was introduced to it just over a year ago and I am slowly working my way through the menu. I can’t believe how good it is, never had a bad meal even when they are super busy

Visited the place for first time after going through a lot of good reviews, well the atmosphere and service is not bad at all but the food was not up to the mark. The level of spices were completely imbalance and ended up no taste of food but a spices to try.

Ordered online went to pick it up was told order was never received showed them a snapshot of the order confirmation, and the payment made on my bank statement . they need to improve their website and get orders right as when we got home the curries we order weren't what we got.

Ordered butter chicken and chicken Jalfresi. Sadly butter chicken was like a korma it had coconut in it. Butter chicken should not have coconut in it. The Jalfresi was better but certainly not the spice (chilli) level I would have expected. I have eaten in at this restaurant and the owner and staff are really nice people its a shame the food let's them down. Price is also reasonable.
