Delicious food and great service. We went for a takeaway and the service was excellent. One of our party is vegan and they understood well, and were honest about what they knew was vegan and what they couldn’t guarantee (some foods are bought in). The food was delicious, more than meeting expectations.

My husband and I have been dining here for many years now and despite having moved to Perthshire it’s still our favourite Indian restaurant and we meet friends for dinner here regularly. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the food is always good. I always try a little bit of everything at the table and as always it was all yummy. My choices were so tasty that I took home a doggy bag of everything I couldn’t finish on the night and had it for lunch the next day. Can’t wait to go back.

Ordered food online. Pakoras and Chicken Tikka main were 2 of the dishes on the orders despite it stating clearly salad was included with these no salad was provided. Peshwari nan ordered plain nan was in the order instead. I phoned to complain and the man who answered the phone would hardly let me explain the issue. I had asled to speak to a manager but the man decided he could "help" instead! It was a busy night was the excuse used several times. That is understandable but surely phoning the customer (I added a mobile number to the order) to inform them of things which were out of stock would have been a far nicer approach. Its not the first instance things have been missing from our order. I wonder if this place has changed owners as there is a dont care approach now of just give the customer what you want and not what they ordered. Dont forget customers pay your wages so treating them badly isnt such a great idea! I tried to send an email but for some reason it did not get there despite the email address being correct. If you dont have an email address dont advertise that you do on your website! Isnt it strange the order system works though? I will be telling my friends and family of my experiences and wont be back as the customer service here is very bad. There are many other takeaways/restaurants who do appreciate our custom and sadly this is not one. I had hoped this would be resolved and I wouldnt have to inform other potential diners on here. It is only fair now they are made aware before they waste their money aswell. Go elsewhere folks.

I’m embarrassed to say that this is my first visit to Spice House after almost 40 years of living in Penicuik. It won’t be my last. The food was superb and the service was friendly and attentive. The restaurant isn’t posh, but it’s light and cheery. I had the best Sag Paneer that I’ve ever had and my lady had a very fine prawn Pad Thai. He was also happy to let me have two veggie side dishes instead of a single main course. BYOB made it a very cost-effective evening out and we were home on a 37 bus in 15 mins. Highly recommended for an informal, high-quality Indian/Thai meal in a cosy, local setting.

This is our go to restaurant in the area. The welcome is always friendly and the staff are attentive and go out of their way to look after you, even making bespoke dishes specific to your taste. Yet again the food was excellent. Succulent, tasty lamb, yummy chicken, excellent fresh naan and the best pakora sauce I’ve had. I would say I cleared my plate but I couldn’t finish what I ordered so I have a wee ”doggie bag” in the fridge right now that I will enjoy for my lunch tomorrow. It’s well worth ordering extra sides and taking home what you don’t eat at the table. All four of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals tonight and will be back again soon.

After seeing so many positive reviews about this Indian restaurant we decided to order the set meal for 4 as a takeaway on Friday night. Bombay potato (x2), rice (x2), peshwari naan, two main courses, chicken pakora and chicken kebab, all for less than 30 quid! Very good value for money and all really tasty. Just as good as our local back home.If I had to criticise anything at all I'd say the chicken pakora could have done with being crisper, but all in all a great takeaway choice here!

As a ceoliac I often struggle to find takeaways that I can depend on not to make me I'll. Spice House is completely clued up on every aspect of the preparation of the food and assured me by explain ing the dishes I could and couldn't have due to cooking methods.We regularly order from here as the Chicken Tikka Bhuna is AMAZING. My wife is so fussy but raves about the Korma here with a Peshwari Naan Bread.We have gotten the meal deal here a few times to as the value for money is incredible. If you live in the area, trust me, pay this place a visit or get a delivery as you won't be disappointed.

We ordered a carry out last Saturday for the first time as it had been recommended to us. We expected to wait a while as it was Saturday but an hour and a half after ordering the meal arrived. It was cold so I had to heat both meals in the microwave. It was not very spicey and the veg bhuna was just full of potatoes with very little other veg.. We were also overcharged from the prices on the online menu by a few pounds. I tried to email the spicehouse via their own email address but it came back after a few days and was not accepted. Very disappointing and would not use again.

To date we have been here 3 times. Their main turnover is carry out meals. They also have a small nice and clean dining area. With being mainly a carry out business I reckon all their meals are based on 3 base curry sauces. The curries my friends and I have ordered are good but not exactly the correct flavour. For example: week 1 a Buna tasted of a deep smokie flavour which tasted pleasant enough but a Buna does not have this flavour characteristics. Week 3: I ordered a Celyon which was a different colour and taste from a Celyon I ordered the week before. This Celyon tasted like the Buna from week 1 but a little hotter. I could not detect the lemon and coconut flavour that a Celyon should have. The pakuras were excellent as were the side dishes. Portion sizes were good and the the service was friendly. I will return. After a few return visits (Jan 2019) my friends and myself have given up with the variation in quality of the food. We now go into town for something half decent.

Food excellent. Service excellent. Little bit cold inside. Byob. Off licence a few doors away. Some Thai options on menu. Better than the longer established local curry houses.

My husband and I have been to this fantastic wee Indian restaurant on many occasions over the past few months and we both love it. We've also taken friends and family who have also really enjoyed it. The food is excellent with so much choice and is great value for money. The BYOB is an added bonus. The staff are very friendly and the service is first class.

The food is great as is the staff and not overly priced. You can take your own wine and beer. Wouldn't go past it. Linda an Robert

I visit this restaurant with my wife frequently. The food is always of the highest standard and the service is always so friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant. It also has the advantage of being BYOB which means a good saving on wine with the meal and they don't charge corkage.

My husband visit regulary as we live locally. I think this is the best restaraunt in terms of value for money. I can't understand why it isn't always busy. You can take your own alchohol which makes a huge difference to your bill! Food is always good, freshly cooked and very good prices. We have brought many people here and none have been disappointed. Staff are friendly and not intrusive. If you don't want to t o travel far its a great place to eat.
