spice essence in Wigan

Food is not nice at all. Curry was greasy, the naan was flatter than a chapati and the dhall was just water with herbs floating in it. I will not order from there again.

We've been ordering from here for quite some time now and never been disappointed. Food was amazing, always lovely fresh garnish. Tandoori lamb chops were to die for.

Organised a family meal, each adult meal was different and each adult rated the food top class 10/10, ordered the food over the phone, everything was perfect, arrived on time and was hot, definitely use Spice essence again- well done !

Long blonde curly hair in my food! I have short black straight hair! Rang restaurant I got told everyone wears hair nets in the back.. I won’t be ordering from here again!

Ordered food collection was down as 6.45 I didn’t leave until 7.10 could hear them having a good old chin wag in the back. Got home half of the food is burnt and the poppadoms are dripping in oil. Hardly any meat in the curry. Rice over cooked I’d of excepted a long wait if the food was good This isn’t even okay it’s poor at best...... First and last meal here personally I’d avoid. A waste of £30 disappointed is an understatement. Posted some photos. AVOID AVOID

Food was bang on but didn't receive full order

Just had a delivery 3.4.20. Didn’t wait ages and it was hot and delicious

The samba was like soup. Didn't even get eaten. Waist of £15 Looking forward to a nice takeaway and it was just chucked in the bin. Wish I'd of cooked instead.

Food is always hot, fresh and tasty, staff are friendly, best Indian for miles

Misinformation it's only a takeaway and not a restaurant.

This restaurant never lets us down. The food is always tasty and well cooked and there is lots of choice. The staff are friendly and the ambiance is nice. We wouldn't go anywhere else for our Indian food! Superb food every visit great table service very attentive staff very welcoming all service is great even withtake away food. Well recommended!!!

Top food Top service Top place Would defo recommend checking out

I'd recommend anyone to go and eat here at anytime. Amazing service from the staff and the food is on point would recommend every to try the chief special along side the aroma and atmosphere inside the restaurant is on point and the staff will make you feel on welcomed.

Very lovely food. Best food place around town. They definitely won't disappoint.

Great food. Great service.. recommended

One of the best places I have ever been to I can say it’s great but you have to go and taste it to understand what I mean highly recommend!

Amazing food and service. Worth the 2 hour drive

Great expamle of customer service. Food fresh and tasty. Would travel 50 miles again for this place..

Not a good start. Paid for onions and chutney and not received them

Had a takeaway from here for the first time last night ......bloody marvellous 😋 can’t wait for them to open fully in July

Very delicious food and fast service ! We are very satisfied ! Thanks !

Just ordered for 1st time from here for 4 people. Got big portions had some left over because we were full. Really nice food and would order again.

Terrible. Disgusting. Joke. We ordered a delivery sunday night at 7.30pm ish. While we were eating our cold, watery, tasteless curry I found a long thick black hair wrapped around a piece of chicken. My partner rang to complain and the person we spoke to acused us of putting the hair in the curry. I have long blonde hair! He said that if we could bring it back ourselves her would cook us a new curry. Why would we want another hairy curry? Disgusting service. Disgusting food!

Was gorgeous! Hot and tasty. Looking forward to going regularly when move to new estate just down the road.

We ordered food to collect, the staff seem very friendly, but the food itself was very ordinary. Glad we tried it, so that we know not to order from there again.

La comida era muy sabrosa, personal amable y encantador dueño. Lo recomiendo altamente. Nos lo pasamos de maravilla y volveremos de nuevo.

Waiter very friendly polite and welcoming. Good was taseless horrible rubbish. Onion Bahji starter looked like it had been bought from Tesco and thrown in a fryer. Next..the main. Prawn Rogan Josh..the sauce tasted of nothing..Guessing it did appear that someone had raked a few prawns out of the freezer..mixed them with a jar of supermarket sauce until the prawns where defrosted and heated. That would have watered down the sauce to the equivalant of a cheap soup. To accompany the dish was rice and French fries..straight from the freezer of course..some cooked..some not ! We where the only customers in their. We didn't eat our meal. We drove home and cooked us something. But we did pay the bill. We also told the poor waiter the reasons why we would never be back. Horrible horrible yuk.

Friendly service & tasty food!! A fantastic local Indian with a really friendly team who are very willing to please. I have been in a couple of times and they remembered our order - and it wasn't even on the menu. They made it up fresh & special. Great!!

Really nice food and good friendly service.highly recommend.

Beautiful food - fantastic!! :)

I have tried and tested various Indian eateries around the local vicinity and by far this is the best. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and even tailor your curry to how you like it. I usually go for the mixed starter followed by the chicken mekhani which is done with cheese in the sauce which is absolutely delicious. I've never actually made it to pudding as i've always been full up from the appetisers and main. The price is excellent for the portion size. This really is a little gem and more people need to know about it - they also offer takeaway and delivery and are on the usual just eat apps etc so share the word!

Nicely laid out restaurant with very welcoming staff but dire horrible dishes that are non authentic.Upon arrival of the menu , I spotted that the Dansak had cream in it, so I asked the waiter if it could be prepared without cream [ Its a Persian dish by origin and contains no cream ] , he said it could. I ordered it , absolutely terrible , the worse I have ever tasted and I have eaten curries since 1974! More garlic than a bolognaise , the garlic over powered the whole dish and of course it came with the Wigan trademark , the obnoxious canned pineapple ring. Nobody in this region uses fresh pineapple or bothers to dice the rings.Whilst my son liked the tikka masala , zombies wouldn't drive me back here. Absolute rubbish!

We have been here a number of times since it opened. It's the nicest Indian restaurant around, food is lovely - generous portions, service is fantastic. Would not go anywhere else! Highly recommended

Absolutely amazing food and great customer service - staff know their curries and are really friendly - will definitely be going again :-)

Been twice now, top class food and good service. You can see your food being cooked if you want! I like vindaloo's, l didn't realise you can have the food made as hot as you can handle. If you like Indian food you'll not beat this restaurant.

We got 2 chicken tikka korma with naan bread plenty for a family of 4 we all enjoyed it lovely creamy korma would recommend

Food was awful. Samiwool the waiter was rude and had a stutter. He spoke bad English and sometimes spat in my drink. Robbywool also couldn't speak English so I had to use Google translate when speaking to him when ordering my food. Food wasnt cooked and the drinked had greeny's in it. The restaurant itself was really untidy.I advise not going to this restaurant. Go at the risk of getting ill.

First time here but we will be back. Excellent food. Staff very friendly and helpful with recommendations and tailored our curries to our requests. Great value for money. Recommended.

staff extremely unhygienic and have a terrible smell. very poor English spoken Last time I went I was threatened with a AK-47. Not fun.J. Whiteleg xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxxoxoxoxox

We had the set meal deal which is available Monday to Thursday 4.30pm - 11pm which is £9.95 per person. To say this was a meal deal the food portions were generous food was tasty & nans were nicely made. Disappointed that they do not do lassi would have complemented the meal

visited on new years eve with family, we had never been here before and it had been recommended to us. Unfortunately the restaurant was busy, and there didn't seem enough staff on. However in saying this they absolutely couldn't do enough for us, we even got a bottle of Moet free, as we did complain about the amount of time we were waiting. The food was really good, and the staff very friendly and efficient. The long wait for the meals definitely wont stop me from going again, as the food and service made u for it.

Food was excellent and the staff were very friendly, would Definitely recommend it for brilliant local meal

Beautiful food and staff where so helpful and made us feel very welcome, shall defiantly be eating here again!!

Have eaten here a few times and have always found the food to be a high standard and the staff are great

Lovely food, the staff were very polite and couldn't do enough for us just thought it was a little bit to pricey for both food and drinks..... Would recommends along as you've plenty money

The food here is amazing best food in Wigan by far it's a lovely restaurant and wonderful staff the guy with previous review saying rude must have been drunk. Overall this place is amazing a good place to eat, they have a excellent offer on. SUPERB RESTAURANT
