Hello - well let me start by saying i never really leave reviews and i never want to be the person who comes across negative- food business is tough - but hold on because here it comes we arrived late in the beautiful Chipping Norton and looking for a place to sit and eat five hungry people after travelling for hours - Spice Of India 🇮🇳 was open three other people in there - lets take a chance after choosing our food the owner who certainly kept popping out from nowhere ( undermining a very nervous staff member) tried to force a starter on one off us with the line “ its very cheap” the staff were extremely erratic/ nervous - my partner asked for a drink sorry dont have those okay just a sparkling water out came the bottle place on the table no sparkling just this still 🙃 really its an indian Faulty Towers everyone of us could not believe no matter what the curry was we choose tasted like a bowl of sugar so so so sweet - my family member also mentioned the Coke had a greasy film on it ? - the worse curry weve all ever eaten ( and i have been to some very off track interesting places around the world) - now the final piece i found very odd/ and funny the boss reappears when its time to pay we will spilt the bill in half so £40 each he then says so £45 £45 almost shouting no £40 as the bill reads - then gives my nephew a piece of paper with write a review 🙃 So should be renamed The NOSPICE OF INDIA and i am seriously thinking of writting a comedy series based on this anyone want to join in … If you love LED RED LIGHTS - CANDY FLOSS CURRIES - and very erratic service and then told to tip this has your name all over it …

We ordered a takeaway from here. Got it home and it was the most blandest curry I've ever had, it was supposed to be a Chicken Madras, we also had a Prawn Madras, both had no soice or heat to them at all, quite disappointed to be honest. Will not use again sorry

The food was so delicious. We came in for a late night dinner/ take away after a long day of travelling it was just what we needed. They do delivery within 3 miles and 10% off for online pick up which is great. The food was so flavourful, well prepared and generous portions! We had the vindaloo, biriyani, mixed platter for two and some sides. Thankyou to Nas and Shipul for looking after us. Wouldn’t miss it if you’re looking for delicious Indian food in the area. - Danielle and Rikard

Food was ok (Beer was actually very nice) The chef came out after about 2 mins of us eating asking us to leave a review which was strange. The waiter was also too busy on his phone to take our order which was annoying. Average at best

7 of us visited as we were staying locally for the Cheltenham Festival. We had booked but probably wasn't necessary. Pickle tray/starters/mains/2 or 3 drinks worked out at £33.00 each with a tip. Thought this was reasonable as I would expect to pay this at home (further north). The food was great for most of us. Maybe a couple of niggles around personal preferences but normally great. More than one of our party had previous issues with other indian restaurants on the Cheltenham trips, and their reviews/experiences have become iconic tales for the rest of us. Just a quick note on the service. It was a little disjointed with the mains, and I would hope they could address this in the future. Give this place a try!
