Spice Mahal never disappoint with their quality and extremely tasty curries. I have tried other restaurants in the Yate/ Sodbury/winterborne/ Rangewothry areas but prefer the slightly longer drive to Spice Mahal. King prawn dishes are always plentiful with the prawns unlike other restaurants. I really would not go to anywhere else. The curry flavours are amazing. Have dined in restaurant as well with friends and have had excellent service. SPICE MAHAL you are the best!

Disappointing! We’ve been going to this restaurant for 20 years, and I’m afraid it seems to have gone down hill. Previously it’s been good, but this time all 4 curries seem to be the same colour, only differing with the spice and meat. Bland! Service felt rushed even though the restaurant was near empty. Drinks very expensive. Sorry, but this was out last visit.

Staff were abrupt which made the evening awkward. With food still on our plates, we were asked several times if we had finished. The chicken was tough as though it had been warmed up a few times. Overall, rushed and unwelcoming, despite the restaurant being half full.

We have eaten at Spice Mahal before and had good food and service. However last night the service was almost worthy of a Basil Fawlty episode. The waiter was really rude when we dared to ask to reduce the amount of poppadoms from 10 to 8, making a huge deal about having to rip off the order from his note pad, storm away from the table, put it in a bin, come back and start the order again. He did this twice, it was so odd, his explanation being that if he didn't do this, the kitchen would get confused. He was so rude, I at first thought he was being ironic. It made us feel very uncomfortable. The food was ok, nothing special this time. The atmosphere was really quite odd, staff looked angry. I won't be back.

Very disappointed 😞 We have been eating here regularly for nearly 6 years, since we moved to the area, and the food has always been excellent. Tonight, our naan breads were both undercooked, with one being inedible, and one of our curries had incredibly dry chicken - as if it had been cooked twice. Unfortunately, as this was a takeaway (we alternate dine-in and take-out), it wasn't easy for us to give feedback directly or have the issues remedied.

Restaurant was empty and the staff couldn't wait to get us out the door. Everything was very rushed from taking our order to collecting plates as soon as we had put down the cutlery! Food wasn't great, naan bread undercooked, probably rushing to get it out. All in all, very unsatisfactory..

The chapatis are half cooked. The curry was really bad. It looks like they have just reheated it. The pulav was just yellow looking rice with zero taste. The rice was hard as if it were taken from the fridge and reheated. The service was awful. The waiter had no idea about the menu. The owner cared less.

It is probably one of the best curry houses in the North Bristol area. It is packed on a Friday and Saturday night with queues for take away. Abdul and the front of house team are brilliant. They will make recommendations if you just want something a bit different too. When I say it’s busy and popular I don’t know many places that have a car park attendant to direct you if you’re in the restaurant or picking up a take away! Well done to the chap too because I wouldn’t be standing there in the pouring rain!

Poor takeaway this time. Been to this Indian restaurant many times in the last 10 years but recently their standards have slipped. Ordered lamb but got chicken or meal does not taste like it should. Rogan lamb tasted like lamb in a strong gravy and chicken madras was very lacking in spices and heat apart from the overwhelming taste of coriander. I doubt we will be returning to this place again. With continued disappointments.

Well, food is average if one knows authentic dishes. Some of the dishes are not actually what they meant to be. For example, lamb Karahi is no where near to a proper lamb karahi. I think they need learn that onions and tomatoes needs to be chopped for Karahi rather than cutting into six pieces and throwing in. However, the portion is good, and so is the atmosphere.

If you like Indian food, this is the best place for miles! The restaurant is intimate and friendly, and they do a 10% discount on takeaway, which even on the busiest evenings takes around 40 minutes to prepare - recommend you, therefore, phone your order in advance. Garlic chicken Bhuna is my personal recommendation. Also, vegetable khorma is nice if you have somebody who prefers vegetarian options. Eating in is a relaxing pleasure, with dishes coming straight from the kitchen to the table in record time. The food is superbly cooked, and there is no sense of pressure to eat up and leave. The opposite is true. The staff are always welcoming and encourage you to take your time and savour the excellent food. Booking is advisable, but midweek, you can usually grab a table without doing so.

First time here and was not disappointed. Great variety of food and, despite the menu size, everything we ordered was top notch. It was nice to see a beer I hadn't encountered before, Bangla, which complemented the meal very well. I love that this place was fairly busy on a Monday when most restaurants, including mine, wouldn't dream of opening on such a quiet day. Spice Mahal truly represents the paradigm we should all aim for, with regular repeat customers driving consistent and new business alike.
