Spice Corner in Rhondda Cynon Taf

What could have been a good meal was spoiled by a combination of poor service and tough meat in my wife's lamb curry, it had not been a lamb for at least a couple of years. Head waiter's behaviour was downright weird and his understudy was overworked and abrupt. Very slow to take your order, and takeaway meals appear to get priority over diners. Maybe picked a bad night when they had staff issues because the place seems popular enough and they did knock a fiver off the bill for the poor lamb but would have to improve massively to tempt us back.

Went with my partner and her mam. Food was delicious, great service. Very cosy little restaurant.

Food was lovely! It is cash only which is slightly inconvenient. The lack of baby changing facilities was disappointing, there's plenty of room to put a baby changing table in both male and female toilets. Having to change a 5 month old on top of a toilet seat isn't the best situation to be in

Order takeaway 3 portion onion bargees mint sauce 2 pompom. Could believe what I open bag, 6 flat small bargees. Enough for 1 person, 3 people eating. All this for £19.95. Never again

Ist time having take away for a long time. Easy to use menu to order from. Food piping hot a flavoursome. Delivery quick and polite. Will use again.

Ok. Food fairly bland. Clean and tidy. Staff nice

Lovely food,very attentive staff and a nice relaxed atmosphere. Looking forward to our next visit

Take away….way too long a wait and disappointing meals. Usually our go to restaurant and take away, but not been for a few months. Has the chef changed?

Really nice food about £30 each for lots. Super clean and they did a thorough job on each table as it was vacated. There were a lot of people so it was hard to talk to my companion without shouting but that's showbusiness baby. No card payments, BYOB

6 of us went food and service was excellent but they didn't have a liquor license and is cash only which is strange in this age but would definitely recommend this place

Been a regular customer of Spice Corner for many years. Sadly last night’s takeaway was not to the usual standard . Ordered South Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken. I think the Chef had an off day . Lacked flavour and heat .

Absolutely disgusting onion bargie flat burnt tasteless curry £25 down the drain never go there appauling

Best Indian I had in a while taste everything nice and fresh food Deffo be going there again

Absolutely spot on, what a great evening we had. Extremely well looked after and fantastic food.

The food last night was absalutly stunning

Lovely food. Takaway is very nice. Spotlessly clean. Would recommend.

Absolutely lovely Indian food, korma was delicious but mild, keema naan had a lovely amount of perfectly spiced meat in it, and the pilau rice was a delight too! Sevice took about 20 minutes take-away, which is not bad considering how small the restaurant is. Atmosphere-wise, it is clean, with nice lighting and good sized chairs and tables, the only issue I had were the drunk patrons (but that's no fault of the restaurant) Closest parking is on the street.

Food excellent prices are great bring your own alcohol

Had a birthday meal here a couple of weeks ago. Having lived in Aberdare for nearly 40 years I've never been in for food. Well I can say no need to travel anywhere for a good Indian anymore. On a plus you take your own alcohol.

Almost is reugular and accepting the Emmy tea and tuffan and effectively access the verify and apply to overal good

Fantastic food and great staff. A wide variety of dishes on the menu and a really good selection of vegetarian dishes. The premises is licenced for customers to bring their own alcohol if required and the venue provides glasses etc. There were 17 people in our group and everybody was served at the same time and the food was piping hot when it arrived. All in all a great restaurant and takeaway.

Very rude staff! We (group of 6 people) reached around 7pm for dinner as walk-ins and were told that we need to finish before 8:30pm - the restaurant was almost empty! Even when we finished food the resto was still empty!! During the ordering as well as serving we found them very rude, not sure what was the problem. The food was average. Some items such as chicken main dishes were probably 3 out 5 in terms of taste/quantity.

Ordered tarla daal and vegetables- but tandoori roti was the best of all! Friendly staff 💕

Fantastic restaurant, very friendly staff and excellent service. A really relaxed atmosphere and extensive menu. The food was brilliant!. Would highly recommend and will definitely be going there again

Some lovely food served. A couple of pieces of chicken were tough and the portions were not large, so glad I put in a side order too, but the curry gravies were tasty and we enjoyed the meal overall. They do need to look around for customers to catch their eye. If only 2-3 tables are occupied this is a little careless. It's a BYO, great if you realise!

Good food served here each time we've been here.

Fabulous food..warm and friendly staff..Will definitely be back xx

Nice place, young girl on the till taking my takeaway order, but didn't seem to be able to answer my question about the sauces, still one of the staff helped and I tried something new which was quite nice

Very quiet on the night we visited. More takeaways going out than sit down. Food was prompts and of decent quality. No license so bring your own booze. No complaints at all.

A great traditional Indian, great take out meals cooked fresh to order,

Lovely atmosphere friendly staff

Been here a few times now, food is always pretty good, it's a busy noisy place at rush times, but that's to be expected.

Very good but we had a meal for2 it was all chicken based, vegetarian or prawn would have been nice

Yep nice food ordered to much as usual good service good price will return if you want alcohol take your own no corkage 👍🙏

Great little place. Good service with the added bonus of bring your own drinks.

Stunning food service very good highly recommended

Best indian restaurant ever....soo delicious n staff are wonderful..cant do enough for you

Food was good, but little portions. Service was not the best even though our party was the only ones eating for the most part - we had to ask a couple of times for things we ordered.

As a Bangladeshi, I'll recommend this restaurant... 100% halal food and the behaviour of the staff is very friendly and helpful...❤

Please save your money and I mean save your money... like everyone else these extortionate price rasing people are jumping on the price hike bandwagon.... it is a rop off take away.... don't pay it

Excellent small restaurant with good friendly service. Take your own beer.

I've always had good food and a nice experience here and I will be going here again very soon. I really enjoy the Shatkora and trying some of the lesser known meals on the menu!

Great service, lovely meal. Really really enjoyed. Will def go again. Recommend highly.

Good ambience staff were good even though we ordered the take away at the last moment the staff delivered the food with a beautiful smile . Thank you team . Hopefully will try to dine in 👍🏻

Always delicious hot food huge selection to choose from, ive never had any problems with an order. Definitely recommended

Run of the mill Indian food. It's decent but nothing special.

Superb customer service. Food is excellent, tasty and good portions. I will be a returning customer.

Absolutely delicious food, lovely atmosphere and great staff.

Fantastic food and great service

This is the place to enjoy a delicious I Indian meal, served by friendly, helpful staff. Every dish tasted delicious. The restaurant itself is light, bright and spotlessly clean throughout. The toilets are the cleanest I've ever been in, even the walls were spotless. Our first visit, it won't be our last! 5 stars is just not enough!

Take away chicken jalfresi with lemon rice, very nice

Best Indian around, red hot special is highly recommended. They do not serve alcohol but do allow you the option to buy your own and bring with you if you ask before hand

Food really good cannot fault the menu but when you come to pay the bill and they tell you the card machine does not work and they try to walk you to the cash point and treat you as a criminal. Very disappointing attitude after a lovely meal

Food was good but beware when the bill comes they announced card machine does not work then try to walk you to cash point demanding they come with you absolutely disgusting attitude!!!

Wow, Chicken Tikka Byrirani this time. Amazing flavours, great service and atmosphere. Bring your own booze makes it cheaper and more choice.

Solid cuisine. Decent app. Full on Wednesday's.

Great food, really good service.

Visited several weeks ago, food was OK, limited choice.

Shameful prices including the food... keep away..... If your under the influence then anything will do.... this portion of chips was £3.20.. Never again..

Fabulous meal with great company will be coming back

Went with friends all had different meals and they were all delicious definitely one of the best

Very tasty food. No issues accomodating us vegans either. We had the biryani and bhuna which were lovely! Will be coming back again.

We were visiting Brecon Beacons and Aberdare on holiday, when we stumbled upon this restaurant on Google by chance; and we are so glad we did! Everything from the cleanliness, service and food is absolutely amazing. You can really taste the flavours in the curries. They also offer a takeaway service. Highly recommend.

Good cuisine,friendly staff excellent service and competitive price.

As always really lovely meal. Great service. Only reason I gave 3* was sheek kebab was cold inside. Naan bread seemed to of shrunk to half the original size. And there was no heat to the Madras.

Lovely food, staff very accommodating!

Good food 😋 service was very prompt safe dining.

Ordered tonight and it never came. Phoned multiple times but no answer. Appalling service.

Just orderd take very tasty one of the best I had in a long time... highly recommend .

Nice food and a fair price for delivery will definitely be ordering again 👍

Good service, very clean &food nice and hot .

BYOB, which makes it more affordable and you have more choice that way, Gareth Rees is only a few doors down so not a problem if you accidentally forget! The food though, out of this world!! So so good! The staff are always super helpful and remember you, always have a smile on their faces. It's also a great place to go after a night out as they're open late. Always got a great atmosphere. Can't fault it and I've been going here all my life!!

Nice food and a friendly and safe environment

Fine indian dining.highly Recommended.

Everything went perfect until the lamb dansak had way too much salt used when it's supposed to have a kick , and kemma nan had no meat in it what so ever

Just had a takeaway and I've got to say this was the best indian we have had for years. Food arrived quickly and piping hot. Everything was stunning. Will definitely be returning. Fantastic x

First time and not the last time! Very nice Indian food and fresh!

Excellent service and Food. Will call again.

Placed an order for delivery via, one less dish than confirmed arrived and one completely wrong dish- called to explain, got talked back to by "the manager". Lovely food, not what we ordered, and don't ask for a refund! Not going to order again.

Great food. Reasonable price. I'll definitely go again.

Decided to visit the Spice Corner for a meal with friends tonight, booked in for 6.30pm although we didn't need to book really, lovely friendly greeting from the cheerful staff, superb choice of meals on the main menu and a really good set meal Tuesday and Wednesday offer of three courses for £10.95. Went for the main menu as we had not been before and it looked very interesting. Well, the food was superb, from the super warm crisp popodums, the onion bahji starter and the special curry (for me) it was superb, so tasty and piping hot and fresh and..as a bonus huge portions lol. Well done guys we will be back quite soon, I can recommend the Spice Corner whole heartedly.

Good food at good prices, but no alcohol😥

Thoroughly enjoyed the food, staff were friendly which is a bonus. They had a special on, 3 coarse meal for £10.95 great value for money. Will definitely be coming back.

Tengan cuidado al ir de compra a este local en particular " Cuando pagamos con la tarjeta Visa, la pasaron 2 veces y dijieron que no se habia efectuado el cobro y que pagaramos de otra forma, confiamos pague con otra y al llegar al hotel reviso y 😱 Sorpresa Si se habia " Cobrado " y "2" veces mas lo que pagamos aparte. Sinverguenza y después nos llevo a que su pariente "" Nos vendiera Alfombras ( cuando nunca le pedimos comprar alfombras ) pero por qué me preguntaba yo y lógico, si ya nos habian robado en nuestra cara 2 veces eramos los estupidos faciles que alomejor los podian seguir estafando. Consejo Nunca mas vuelvo a comprar con tarjeta en Istambul y Nunca mas despues de este viaje Vuelvo al Pais de Ladrones . !!

Food was lush! Would recommend!

Don't go expecting tablecloths, fancy décor and soft lighting, this is a 'you get what you see restaurant', although it is nicely presented. If you want to drink alcohol then bring your own, or, there is also a small supermarket across the road to purchase some if you want. The restaurant will happily provide glasses for you. Very pleasant experience with a warm welcome, efficient and non-intrusive staff, relaxing background music and delicious food. One of the few places I've almost cleared my plate of a meal that you just want to go on eating because of the flavours. Plenty of time to eat and there is no pushing you out the door. Will look forward to our next visit.

Chicken tikka masala and chicken makhani very sugary sweet and watery so lacking in true indian flavours. Very disappointed. Naan bread also undercooked and overly sweet. Chefs palate not to my liking as obviously has a very sweet tooth

So for a change we decided to eat here after an evening out. Surprised by his early the restaurant closes (11pm). We booked ahead and it was very quiet for a Saturday night. The restaurant was clean and tidy. Good food and quick service.

Best curry house in the town. Staff are very friendly and nothing is a problem for them.

Had a nice chicken tikka kebab friendly staff

All the Staff are lovely. Food excellent.

Wonderful little restaurant, the staff are so warm and friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I had the Tawa (spelling?) Lamb and it came sizzling to the table, packed with big chunks of meat, peppers and onion. Generous portion too. The decor is not particularly fancy but don't let that deter you. Wonderful little gem.

This was easily the worst meal ive ever had .we ordered 4 separate meals . The tandoori food is microwaved . The food was not genuine indian food . I can guarantee that this food is not authentic indian food .the curries had sugar in them ans the actual staff and owners are not even indian ..they apppeared to be sri lankan . Stay clear of this place especially if you know your Indian food

Modern styling. Good food. Reasonable price. I'll definitely go again

No alcohol. Food is bland and not at all hot. Would not personally return. Forgetable experience.

Going down market used to be good back in the days

Great food and service, pleasant staff all in all a really nice evening would recommend it to anyone.👍👍👍

Great curry and really nice staff recommended

Spice Corner is an old favourite of ours for family meals, birthdays and the like. A clean establishment, with polite and helpful staff and good food at reasonable prices. The lack of alcohol licence is not an issue, as they do not charge corkage for BYOB. Overall a pleasant meal in a nice environment, best suited to parties of 4-10

Very nice place, very professional would recommend to any1
