Had a weekend in Durham and looked for an Indian prior to our visit, it didn’t disappoint, loved the visit, all four of us enjoyed an excellent meal, had great service from the whole team in a lovely place built into some ancient walls. Highly recommend!

Best Indian food I’ve had in ages. Tikka liver starter, which was cooked just right not too chewy not too rare. The wife had a chef’s special kebab but I ate most of that. Chicken was very tender. Finished off the lamb kebab of my friend which was also full of flavour and not too dry. Main course I had a lamb tikka bhuna which is the benchmark of any good Indian in my opinion. I asked for it to be made slightly spicier and they did that no problem. Again the lamb was very tender, the flavour of the curry was very nice. Best I’ve had and I have had a LOT of lamb bhunas. I didn’t eat too much rice as it’s just a waste of belly space in my opinion. I had a garlic keema naan to go with the curry. Again very tasty. Nice chunks of meat in the bread and it had a nice sweet kick to it. I will definitely go back here.

My wife and I had a great meal experience in the Spice Lounge. We hadn't booked and were lucky to get a table. We notice how clean the restaurant was (including the menus) and the waiting staff were incredibly knowledgeable of their menu. The food quantity and quality was excellent, beautifully presented and well prepared. There are plenty of Indian restaurants in the area, but this has to be the best we have visited. Will definitely go again and highly recommend it.

A bit disappointed with the food to be honest!! Always spoke highly from previous visits but wasn’t up to standard this time!! Asked for ours of 2 different choices to be spiced up but both very different dishes came out looking exactly the same!! Ridiculous amounts of red food colouring used!! Even in the poppadoms & pickles had to ask what the red pickle was?!! ‘Mango chutney’!! 😳 apart from that the service at atmosphere was amazing!

Please do not expect good desi food here. The staff and owners are very nice so it pains me to have to write the rest of this review, please accept my apologies in advance. From purely a managerial sense you seem to run an amazing restaurant. Let me preface this by saying my standards are not high, and I assure you I am quite happy eating those tescos indian microwave meals. I have been to spice lounge around 12-13 times for various socials and events and I must say very few dishes here are even remotely passable. Expect bland, over sweetened, and often very strange flavours. I keep going here again and again after reading the reviews and assuming something is wrong with me. Why cant I enjoy these dishes? The service is very nice, attentive, and honestly I have no complaints, the wait staff employed here at the moment are very good. the restaurant and ambience are also quite frankly better than a few few places in durham and the location is excellent. I just cannot recommend the food. Here are a list of items I have ordered over the years which I have had multiple times and would steer clear of: - Starters: Onion Bhaji ,Samosa, Paneer Tikka Starter, Hariali Chicken Tikka. Chicken Tikka Starter - Mains : Makhani, Madras, Dupiaza, Pasanda, Bhuna, Rogan Josh (In chicken, chicken tikka, lamb, lamb tikka) Biryanis : Chicken and Chicken Tikka Biryani Grills: All. Dishes you should/can order: - Naan (the naans are not bad, they are a little thick, I wouldnt go just for naan but its no worse than other places)

We decided to return to Spice lounge after not been there in ages. Friday night 18.15pm We were given a table straight away. The waiter gave us time to choose drinks and food Husband ordered 2 cobras Then Poppadom followed by Seekh kebab and I had Onion bhaji We had mains of Masala Chicken and Masala Chilli chicken With Mushroom Pilau and 1 naan bread Food was really lovely to taste and very filling In my bowl there was too much sauce My husband said the same which is a waste for the chef We paid the bill and went to leave the man sitting behind me had his chair close to mine. So I was unable to move my chair to leave table. I slid along the chair to stand up. On doing so I twisted my left knee and was unable to walk. The waiters were standing next to exit and not one asked if I was alright. As it has turned out I am on my 4th day laid up with walking problems. After a lovely meal out with my husband this has put a damper on our experience

Visited three times this week while working in Durham. It’s not a big place and parties are advised to book but they did their best to accommodate a solo diner which was good. I had a couple of lamb based special dishes which come complete with a potato side and rice. The lamb chop version was particularly good but prepare to get in a mess. Well worth it. Tandoori cookery is precise and my chicken tikka starter was moist as it should be and spot on for spicing. I’ve enjoyed Alishaan in the past but this is much better value and my go to place next time in Durham.

Arrived at 21.00 having allowed plenty of time before their closing time (hours) to be told they had switched off all their kitchen equipment as it was quiet, this is midweek in Cathedral City in the UK. It was far from quiet, struggled to book any hotels or taxis! Having eaten here previously this used to be a very well run Indian with excellent customer service, things have very clearly changed. I suggest you steer well clear when in Durham.

Cosy, hidden away curry house that serves classic great curries with good service. Flavours were good, environment is more traditional than modern minimalist which I like. It was clean, well looked after and not a bit tired. This would be a classic curry haunt for bigger groups and would be a regular haunt if it was our local. There aren’t that many tables so probably advisable to book to ensure you get in. On a Sunday night before 7pm it was over half full and the tables were refilling soon after they emptied which for me is a sign of a great place.

Came here because it was recommended by work colleagues and had won an award. We had chicken biryani and malai kofta. The latter was passable but nothing about the biryani was biryani. My friend with me thought I ordered sweet and sour fried rice, complete with a flat egg on top. Not too terrible if you called it something else but it didn't taste Indian by any standard of the word, more East Asian. I don't know how it's the best Indian restaurant in the north east if it isn't even the best in town. The service was excellent though, they kept making sure we were comfortable.

Wonderful introduction to Indian food. Chaz/chad was super helpful and made lovely recommendations for us. We had lamb Rogan and chicken korma. Next time we’re in Barnard castle we will definitely come again.

I dined recently at this restaurant with a large group. Sadly we waited over 2 hours for a table after booking ahead. The staff could not have been more unhelpful and disinterested with no standard of customer service ! We won’t be going back to this restaurant!
