Spice Of Life in Aberdeenshire

Our first time at the Spice of Life and it will certainly not be the last. The food was excellent and the portions were most generous. Service was also excellent, attentive without being intrusive. It also has the benefit of their own parking to the rear of the restaurant.

Excellent food and service, nice helpful staff.

Cannot overstate how delicious the food is!!! Every single dish was bursting with flavor and presentation is beautiful. The service is amazing and prices very reasonable especially for how ridiculously tasty everything is. If I didn’t live 100 miles away, I would be here once a week.

Fantastic meal, service excellent. Best Indian restaurant in Inverurie

Great meal - if you haven’t then you better get in here

No words needed, excellent food 👏👌

The best Indian restaurant in Scotland

Brilliant. Best Indian food in the area.

Just lovely food and lovely people

First time eating here, the best Indian in Inverurie

Food was very good reasonably priced had an enjoyable meal

Wonderful food fresh excellent quality so much choice ordering Thali . My friends and i so enjoyed the experience and first class service.

We don’t even live in Inverurie and have an Indian takeaway in our closest town but I’d rather go here than anywhere else, even Aberdeen. The food is authentic and the flavours are out of this world. They do a coconut rabbit stir fry which I adore. Try these guys you will not be disappointed.

Staff efficient & extremely helpful & friendly. Food always very good. Very reasonably priced .

Great tasting food love by my family! Meat was so moist and tender. The honey chicken starter went down great. The Joypuri curry was the best I have had in a long time. Peshwari nan’s were perfect! Will be back!

Excellent cuisine, impeccable service, professional and extremely welcoming. A real pleasure to eat Indian in this restaurant.

First time here yestarday and wow the food was amazin what a portion size u got i loved the popadoms with al the nice wee dips .... service was good but music was very basic ans chilled place was lovley and clean nan was a bit dry and i had a birianyi which i was a bit sad about as i asked for it very mild and it was quite spicey ... as i dont eat spice i only managed haf of it but cant wait to come and try a korma guy that took payment from me was lovley defo be back x

Excellent food as always. Bit of a wait due to an extremely busy day but they treated us well.

Really nice place. The staff were engaging, the food was excellent & very good value for money and there was a very good buzz in the room. Best curry I've had in a long time 😀.

Excellent,service,amazing food etc 👌 😋

Really good meal, and not rushed, have eaten here a few times and would recommend.

My wife and I use Spice of Life fairly regularly and are never disappointed. Food is very well presented, great taste and attentive service. My wife especially likes the Labradab Chicken while I either have the Lamb chops or the Lamb Bhuna. I also recommend the garlic naan. It's light, slightly crispy and well seasoned. Last Saturday it was the perfect pick-me-up after a disappointing football result.

This place is a gem. I've had indian cuisine all over the UK and this restaurant, hands down is the best food I've ever tasted. People of inverurie, do you know how lucky you are ?

Great food, exactly what I needed. Fantastic as always.

What an absolutely fabulous restaurant! Food, presentation, staff and premises - exceptional. Well worth a 90 mile return trip. Thank you

We were struggling to find anywhere for our intended lunch of soup and a sandwich and spotted the thali menu. Place ticked all of the boxes. Parking behind the restaurant, elegant decor, lovely waiter and seriously tasty food. Menu was way out of the ordinary. Can't rate the atmosphere as, surprisingly, we were the only people there. I hope that Inverurie appreciates what it has

Pretty disappointing Would say microwave Nan bread And highly doubt that it was lamb in the Buna, more like beef

Had a meal here this evening with my family. Great food, great service....what else can you ask for? Best Indian food ever!

It's a lot of years since we last visited but now that we have moved back to the area, this is certain to be a more regular restaurant to visit. Food was excellent, service couldn't be faulted and the whole experience was 2nd to none. Great value, great choice, we will be back soon.

We had a great experience and meal. Maverick was our waiter, and thank you for a potted history of the business & chefs. The poppadoms and sauces were very nice. Loved the spicy onions. The Gobi Manturian starter was the best I have had in years.👏 Our mains were so tasty and lots of meat & sauce Staff are friendly & helpful. Great service and atmosphere Definitely will return and try a takeaway in the future.

Was pleasantly surprised to find this authentic Indian restaurant of all the places in Inverurie and the food taste, prices and authenticity to my surprise was much better than a lot of Indian restaurants in London. To top it up their service is extremely good, personalised treatment, especially to match Indian taste - spicy etc, chef is Indian and staff is extremely efficient, they offer catering services for big events like birthdays etc, reasonably priced. Pre book during weekends, can be busy at times.

Really enjoyed this place, good service and grub was spot on

Best Indian restaurant I've ever been too. Everything was perfect!

Best in Inverurie. Keep the good work and consistency (key) up all.

Brilliant food and service. A favourite with us and our friends. Maverick and chefs go all out to make it a memorable meal for you.

Fantastic food and service, will be back

Staff are amazing here! Lovely people, none of the 6 of us could finish our food, so they packed everything up individually and labelled it all individually what was way more then a normal restaurant would bother with. Would 100% go again!

We visited the restaurant yesterday. The vibes were really great!!! The food served was piping hot and fresh. We also liked the platings of dishes and ambience are lovely. They serve variety of veg and non veg options along with delicious salad and desserts. Overall the service is great and would love to visit again. Kudos to one of the telugu owner and chef.

Absolutely delicious food with a warm atmosphere. Curries were unique and flavourful with plenty of options. Service was exceptional and each meal was top-notch—I highly recommend!

Delicious food , very near to fine dining, not regular Indian cooking, normally indian restaurant make big pot of sauce whenever we order curry, they pour that sauce then mix the masala but this restaurant look different. All the naan bread are crispy and tasty. Garlic rice is exceptional, Recommend, worth for your money . ✅ please serve more salad for the customers.

presentation 10/10 service 7/10 food 6/10 price 1/10 atmosphere 5/10 cleaness 10/10 The food was well overpriced, they came over said would u like poppadoms... yes please. .. 5 ? yes please. then on reciept been charged £5 . and charged £1.80 for chutneys.... I wasn't asked do you want to order poppadoms.. I wasn't meantioned cutneys .... cokes were £3.10 each . and were cans opened at the till . Hooe not multi pack. felt robbed butter chicken and tikkas were 12.95 each . about 5 bite size chicken bites and far to much sauce to make it look more. rice is an extra 4.95 also , so £18 nearly for just a curry and rice . add one poppadom £19, and add 1 coke that's £22 for 1 person!! service on entering wasn't much special . compared to the local Chinese restaurant. when in the Chinese returant we were greated with smiles and appreciation. the actual service at table was quiet and to be honest not that friendly . the bill for 5 of us, mum and dad and 3 teens just shy of £150 !! biggest bill we have ever had :( 😞 I guess check 2023 menu .... not old ones ... Worked out £29.69 each Not coming back thanks .. no way

Had a great meal with friends food and service was 10/10

My husband and I had a delightful meal at Spice of Life on Monday, the best Indian food we've had in years, from the crispiest popadoms to the most flavoursome curry. Everything was impeccable. Now I plan to go back for the lunchtime thali.

Appetisers and starters were nice. The main curries we had were too sweet for our tastes. But it was a nice restaurant with good service.

Good curry, attentive service, very pleasant evening.

Haven't experienced a curry meal of this quality in a long time. I will definitely revisit when I'm back in this neck of the woods. Vegetable Samosa's, Chicken Tikka Byriani with Keema naan and Pistachio Kufti I can highly recommend.

Working in the area today and just called in for dinner. Fantastic food. I consider myself a bit of a curry connoisseur - living in Leicestershire and spoilt for choice in fine Indian cuisine but this is up there with the best and probably the finest curry I have had for over ten years. Very well balanced - spice, sweetness, texture all to perfection.

We were on a holiday trip to Scotland We found out one of the best place to dine in INDIAN RESTAURANT ( SPICE OF LIFE ) very recommended must try every dish we ordered we enjoyed a lot. Proper INDIAN FRIED RICE. With a very peaceful environment. Very nice staff. Welcoming overwhelming. Thanks to the chef. See you soon. Will definitely come again.

The food was lovely and so was the staff. Will be definitely back. There is also an option to order online and collect from the restaurant.

Excellent food, service and prices. Will be back

Amazing meal at Spice of Life in Inverurie, food was spot on and the staff were all lovely and attentive, 100% recommend 👌

Had a carry out phoned at midday then pick up at 5pm (evening opening time) was looked after very well food ready 10min was excellent really tasty all the dishes were spot on lovely will be back next time visiting our friends.

Really one of the best Indian restaurants here. The taste and presentations are top notch. Would definitely go back

This is the best Indian cuisine I have ever had, with no exception. I hope I'm up visiting this area soon. Thank you.

Really excellent food, tastes genuinely Indian. Portion sizes are generous. Fast and polite service Can’t fault it, will be back again!

Been numerous times and always have an excellent meal, highly recommended.

Outstanding every single time. Food cooked perfectly, full of flavour, portion sizes you cannot complain about at all. Complimentary large bottle of juice or wine also if you have a bit carry out order. Highly recommended.

Very good food and good service

First class meal and service Best Indian food

Quality restaurant from start to finish. Nice ambience, clean linen, professional staff, oh and the food is fantastic. Loads of creative and expertly spiced dishes for us vegetarians. We have been a couple of times in the past month and enjoyed some great dishes, especially a paneer makhani, a vegetable madras and a vegetable dhansak. Naan bread generous and lots of rice choices. Good wine selection, plus cobra beer and even a non-alcoholic beer if needed. Top marks.

Probably one of the best places I've eaten Indian food. Generous portions. So delicious. Friendly & fast service. It's on my favorite's list.

Probably the best Indian meal we’ve had. The quality of the food was first class, the service impeccable and spotlessly clean (even the washrooms). Jane and Geoff Derbyshire

Absolutely first class food and service. It’s up there as one of the best Indians I’ve had. Highly recommend this restaurant and I’ll definitely be back.

We had an awesome mixed starter to share and then our main dishes were as delicious. Super place that catered for us at a walk in on a Saturday night. Loads of friendly staff that were very welcoming and very attentive. The Malbec was delicious also. Highly recommend this place if close to Inverurie. Phone in advance for booking though as we just missed the rush and were very lucky to be fed. 👍👌😋

Fantastic food excellent service highly recommend

Excellent food, fantastic service.

Popped in during the evening while exploring Inverurie and was blown away by the quality and speed of the food. We were well taken care of and both of us stuff ourselves until we had to roll out the door. Very affordable and quality was excellent, will be back!

Amazing flavours and great service.

Fantastic Indian food and great service. Went in with a party of 6 and were very well taken care of. The staff was attentive and mindful of when the food was coming out to make sure we could eat together, and accommodating for our party. Not to mention, everyone’s food was delicious! A gem in Inverurie!

Great service and fantastic food. 👏

Hello, I am writing a review to say that I give this place a 5 star ⭐️ because they have amazing food, set up and workers! The workers are amazing and so friendly and very helpful! 😊 I would highly recommend this place! 🍛 They have amazing foods, drinks, starters and desserts! 😋 They are sooooo amazing! 👍 That’s all from me! 🫶

Really fresh tasty food and great service.

We are so lucky to have such a high calibre Indian restaurant in Inverurie. The SoL certainly hits the high spots with excellent attentive service, and a terrific selection on the menu. There were three of us, and none of us disappointed. Can’t praise this place enough. Well done!

Really nice restraunt great staff and good food

New ownership and menu. Have to say one of the best Indian meals I have had. Great service with polite knowledgeable staff. Thank you.

We popped in for a meal the night before attending a wedding. We wish we were staying longer and were able to return to this fabulous restaurant. Best Indian meal we've ever had. Staff were brilliant very friendly & professional. Would highly recommend.

Still the best place for Indian food in Aberdeen/Aberdeenshire. Currys and Naaans out of this world and all the staff are incredibly friendly.

Fantastic. Beautifully presented meals. Different and classic menu. Very attentive & friendly service. Won't be long until were back.

Great good and wonderful service. Definitely recommended.

Excellent food and lovely people. Great place for a meal with friends or family. Thanks guys we will be back soon 😊

Cannot reccomend enough. Service was amazing and the staff were incredibly polite and professional. The food was also amazing. We were in a party of 6 and all had very different things and everyone was impressed and really enjoyed their meals. We will definitely be back soon! Thank you again for such a lovely evening!

Lovely meal. Excellent service.

Excellent. Fine dining Indian cuisine. Highly recommended 👌

We qere a big party but they managed to look after us well

Was Bagpiping in Inverurie and looking for a place to eat.. I am absolutely delighted that I stumbled upon Spice Of Life. Do not go anywhere else!

Nice atmosphere, staff are very friendly and good was well presented and tasted great.

The best Indian meal we've had in Inverurie in a long time , food was incredibly tasty and beautifully presented and the service was fantastic , professional and discrete when required but always available , Have been told the staff from the Shahi Darbar at the Port are now the owners of the Spice and if so thats a huge plus for us as we loved the Darbar when it was open. Will definitely eat here again

First time visiting this restaurant, the experience was excellent. Furnishings and fitted were of a high standard, staff were friendly, accommodating and professional. Food was excellent best Indian meal we have had in a long time will definitely eat here again if we return to this area. However, North Wales is a long way to travel for an Indian meal. Thank you.

The food is amazing here. Every dish I have ordered, either takeaway or dine in was excellent. I have chosen this as my main place to go for Indian cuisine. The prices are a little above average but not too expensive. But I suppose this is reflected in the quality of the food. Hence why the business is so busy.

A very warm welcome when we entered and shown to our table. One of the best Indian meals we have ever had, we will definitely be going back if we are up here again.

Mix up with my take away very apologetic and a free pint while i waited top food and service

Yes yes friendly caring staff, food Presentation was spot on , and first class food will be going back 😋

Pleasant friendly staff, lovely decor & food delicious. Left with happy tummies Thank you😊

thali was a lovely lunch idea. friendly staff. would recommend

Best Indian restaurant I have ever been to. Amazing food and great staff

Had an amazing experience, food tasted delicious and staff professional and very friendly. Don’t miss out on this place!!!

Always been one of our favourite Indian Restuarants. First time back since pandemic. Usual high standards of food , friendliness and immaculate cleanliness. The young student waiter was an excellent host.

Food was superb. Will be going back soon. Did takeaway. Staff were fast and friendly.

Fantastic food and service tonight. The place was very busy with diners and takeaway, but the standard was still extremely high. Will definitely return soon. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
