Spice Of India in Oxford

Great food great service great value, highly recommend

Really delicious food. Very tasty and not greasy. Good quality at a reasonable price.

I'm genuinely shocked by the poor reviews for Spice of India! I've lived in Oxford for years and rely heavily on apps like Deliveroo and Just Eat. I've tried every Indian, Chinese, and other restaurants around, and I can confidently say, as a local guide, that this is the very best Indian take away in town. The food here is absolutely amazing and so authentic. I've experienced Indian food in the past that was flooded with oil and where all the curries seemed to use the same base ingredients, just with different names. But at Spice of India, every dish is cooked and made to order — it's so fresh, so tasty, and so moreish! The prices are unbelievable for the quality you receive. I'm thrilled with my experience. The food arrived on time, with extra care in the packaging, making for a fantastic experience from start to finish. My friend and I were initially a bit worried due to the reviews, but I genuinely believe these negative comments must be from competitors trying to tarnish their name because this was a phenomenal Indian meal. In fact, I was so impressed that I went back within days. The quality is consistently excellent, the portions are generous, and everything is freshly made. Unlike other places where the food often comes soaked in oil, at Spice of India, everything is fresh and flavorful. The peshwari naan is delightful, the saag aloo is incredibly fresh, and I simply cannot recommend this place enough. Do yourself a favor and try it — you won't be disappointed!

probably the first time i've ordered takeaway and only had minor complaints, good job

Very tasty, fresh and hot!!! 😋 thank you!

Food was cold Meat was rock solid Not enough sauce Hardly any keema in the naan Mixed starter was dry I want a full refund

Phone number on Just Eat incorrect. Food excellent, but was late. No notifications via Just Eat.

Good food but spicier than anticipated. Arrived over an hour late, but not cold.

The Rogan lamb was missing meat and naan were smaller than other restaurants . Paneer saag was sweet

Food was quite good, but took over 2 hours to arrive, no response when trying to get an update, no answer on the phone. Will not be using this restaurant again.

Never again! Taste less food which was late by an hour. Angry because Justeat will not do anything about this. Why is the customer not refunded for the pathetic food and service.

Delivered late, driver explained, but asked for money back on one item as is wasn't delivered and they refused on the grounds it wasn't late? Biryianni came but without the veggie curry, tried ringing several times but no answer, so probably wont use this place again even thought the food was good

Spot on flavours,freebie always appreciated and friendly delivery guy..👍

Food isn’t too great. Lacked proper seasoning. Too oily: ordered Chicken biryanis (6/10) and Chicken Makhani (2/10)

Fish and chips £2 from the feezer. But the indian food banging and full of flavour. Overall will defo try again.

Due time was at 18.28 but did not come till The good was okay but a bits cold and when I call them they didn't pick up the phone and for the delivery man telling me he doesn't have any money on him

Food arrived over an hour late! it was cold and tasteless, quality of food really poor. Telephone not answered when called to enquire about food. No apology or explanation for lateness.

Amazing food! Definitely recommend! Only downside is I didn’t get the free Bombay aloo for spending over £15 but the food was delicious! Thankyou

Excellent service. However, driver got lost. Food quality good, very tasty.

Excellent food, very tasty. Good delivery time. Driver very courteous. Highly recommended restaurant.

Don't bother with this place. Didn't send food. Don't answer phone. No help. Rubbish.

The meat chunks were to large in the chicken as was the onion. Other than both dishes were very tasteful. I woukld recommend to any existing or future customer.

Amazing food, very fresh and delivered quickly. Have ordered from here 3 times and never been disappointed. Definitely recommend

One of the best curries I’ve eaten in oxford for a very long time.

Had a part of my order missing, and one part wrong item

I would like to get food from here again and the delivery was good, well done.

The tarka dhal I ordered was so watery with hardly any grains of lentils. Looked like they had watered it down to fill the 2 containers I had ordered. There was no flavour to it at all. The boiled rice didn’t taste nice either. The only good thing was the veg samosas. We used to order from them regularly but we will not order from them again.

Ordered at 5:15 came at 7:45pm. I tried to call but no answer food arrived no sorry it’s late and the food was cold. So disappointed.

First time using Just Eat and Spice Of India, Oxford. Impressed with both.

No food delivered....waited for 45 min ,No one answered the call too. Very bad......

Didn’t even deliver left me waiting ?

We always order our meal from here as never had a problem before and the food is always amazing, but last night we had a dish missing from our order , tried ringing the restaurant on numerous times and no one answered? even tried doing on line chat but no joy? Not happy 😒

Food fantastic, always hot when arrives, delivery and delivery driver always on time and very polite

10/10 recommend!! Lush food and really reasonable delivery time!

Our takeaway was great, me and my children love curry but my eldest wanted something else. Love you can get more than a curry here. Food was great will definitely order from here again. Thank you

The food was cold and stale. Would not recommend.

Great food delivered early. But the delivery guy didn't seem to understand that I wanted him to put the food down outside the door and back away to social distance as we are vulnerable.

Great food, delivery was late but not massively so. Would order from here again!

Food was piping hot and delicious. Great service and food was perfect

Food was amazing! Will definitely order again. The only reason I'm not giving it full stars is because it had a deal if you spend over a certain amount you get free Bombay aloo and we never got ours.

The food wasnt nice it was very hot tasted like it was reheated and was nearly an hour late

The food was great but I am unsure why we were given a menu for a different takeaway when the food was delivered. Did it actually come from the place we ordered if from?

Fantastic!! Everything was delivered 20 minutes earlier than stated time, food was piping hot and really tasty. Will definitely order again!

Usually amazing , but lastnight wasnt very good , was dissapointed .

chips with a tiny bit of cheese felt like cardboard and tasted just as good, the rest was Luke warm driver lightly tapped on the door and didn’t apologise for being 20 mins late

Always amazing best curry in oxford 👌👌

Always fresh hot and tastes fantastic ,

Food was amazing and very tasty even the kebab was so much nicer then half of these kebab shops

Our meal arrived by the specified time. The drink we ordered wasn't delivered with the meal, however the restaurant contacted the delivery driver who came back with it.

Good food, lots of. I may switch to this place rather than my usual, check out other menu items. So far, no complaints.

Come on time, piping hot and delicious! Would 100% order again

Chutneys and salads were delivered even though I left a note asking them not to be delivered. The chicken biryani was terrible, plus contained cucumbers and peppers which no proper biryani should contain. The chicken did not taste like it was marinated as it should have been in a proper biryani. It tasted like it had been cooked separately earlier and then reheated and mixed with the rice. Flavourless and terrible. Normally Spice of India are good but perhaps this time their regular chef was not on duty.

Wonderful food delicious thank you

Food was good and everything was there but it was 45 minutes late.

Food was good but delivery was late. Not everything turned up. Asked Just Eat about it but they never replied so ended up being overcharged.

Our order was delayed by 25 minutes , my kebab was almost entirely salad, forgot the naan and when I called they said they'd give me naan "Next time". No offer to do anything about it today. The food quality isn't good enough for me to get taken for almost three pounds .

Delivered on time but did take 1 hour . Still worth the wait

As a vegetarian I don't expect to find chicken in my paneer tikka masala. This is the second time it has happened and I will not be chancing it again!

Arrived on time steaming hot and lovely

Brilliantly made and delivered with a smile as usual! love this place :)

Food arrived 2 hours after it was ordered then driver had no change on him, can of drink at the bottom of food so was hot, soggy cold naan bread, hot salad, curry mainly onions not much sauce and lamb kebabs were co-op lamb burgers!.. will never return NOT RECOMMENDED!

Food arrived 30 minutes late, with a number of the cartons bashed and some of the contents spilled inside the bag. Disappointing.

Forgot main order which was the chicken korma rang and told them its been an hour so far and stil waitin... not good when your starvin not impressed 😡

Very good food. The delivery was a whole hour earlier than quoted brilliant for a busy Friday night! -

Was lush. Very tasty very fresh and hot. Cheers

Very pleased - lovely food delivered promptly.

Really disappointing. Food arrived late after 30 minutes was added to the ETA, it arrived cold and with wet soggy lettuce all over the meal, cold chips, basically un-edible and waste of money. I contacted just-eat who spoke to the restaurant, who declined to resolve the issue, no refund given. I threw the meal away in the end and really would advise against ordering from here.

Ordered a takeaway through just eat, restaurant added an extra 30 mins on to delivery time and then marked it as delivered even though we hadn't received it. When we called up to enquire we were told there was lots of traffic, we live less than a mile away. Oh and still waiting now 25 minutes after it was supposedly delivered!

Had to wait an additional 45 minutes for delivery even though the restaurant had already adjusted the time by 30 mins. When we called to enquire we were told there was lots of traffic on Bodley road!!! Food was average so won't be using them again as 2 hours from order to delivery wasn't worth it.

Delicious food, delivered early!

Chips were reheated, but gutted to be honest, burger was good though

Lovely food but free bombay allo advertised was missing

I thought I would order from somewhere different and choose this place very nice food delivery on time food not greasey worth the 5star great food :)

Delicious food delivered bang on time.

Delivery driver polite and food always good quality. Never buy anywhere else

Food was so nice and there was so much food could feed a whole army not just the 2 of us

Took nearly two hours to arrive, and was cold on arrival. I called the restaurant, and each person I spoke to said they couldn't do anything. No apology, nothing. Awful service.

Sadly my order was wrong, the food was decent but ruined because it was not what I asked for!

Delicious food, but delivered later than promised.

Absolutely gorgeous food. Very tasty indeed. Thanks very much.

Fantastic, delicious food delivered incredibly promptly.

Great food, delivered early, highly recommended

Amazing lovely dishes hot and tasty

Great food, especially the chicken wings which were absolutely crispy. Vindaloo was flavourful and really hot. Delivery came 20mins late and didn't receive the chips I've paid for, but when i called the restaurant, the staff was really helpful and offered to give me free large chips the next time I order.

I never received my order that I had placed at 9.30pm and they had updated my delivery time from 11pm to 11.10pm incurring the fact that they close at 11pm and that it had been delivered at 11pm, not happy

Delicious food delivered exactly on time. Highly recommended.

My chicken tikka masala was lovely and hot when it arrived, however a bit spicy compared to a regular one - fine for me as I like a bit of spice, however, not for you if you don't like a bit of a kick. My naan and breaded mushrooms however were a bit luke warm when they arrived. Your delivery man was quite good looking too 😍 Very polite and courteous.

Very tasty food delivered five minutes early. Delighted!

Food was delicious and looking forward to ordering again

Delighted with the food and the speed of delivery. Very highly recommended.

25 minutes late delivering.Food delicious.

Got a mixed kebab and a chicken tikka masala and was bob on - perfect!

Definitely order from there again. The food arrived hot and was so tasty.

While the food was quite good, it arrived late and we found a few hairs in the food

Great food! Portions were bigger than expected, definitely will order some time soon.

Really pleased - quick delivery, lovely delivery man and even got a free extra popadom! Thank you

The quality and taste of the food was subpar and disappointing. Had to throw the Korma out, couldn't eat it.

Very good curry, very good service. Highly recommended.

Top meal! Asked for a specially cooked meal (mild madras) and it was perfect

Very nice but i could have had a couple of free Poppadoms but never mind.
