Spice & Shakes in Portsmouth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Best in town food on point friendly service 10/10

Fantastic never disappointed. Its hard to find good indian takeaway these days. Good service. I would highly recommend this takeaway 👌 Mr B

Let's begin with one thing: You need to try the Wild Mango Tropicana. It is, by a country mile, the best curry you can get in Portsmouth if you like something sweet and lacking "heat". Okay, so you might be looking at this and going "Wait, this isn't Spice and Shakes, what's happening?" Well I have no idea if it's transferred management, rebranding, or what, but the damn good curries are still there at least. The Tropicana Chicken the missus gets continues to be to die for, the "kebabs" this place now offers (Tandoori meat in a chapati and/or naan) is fab, and the vegetable paratha is brilliant. If nothing has changed since the Spice and Shakes days (Which it doesn't seem to have, mostly), I can vouch for most things this place offers; It's the only curry place we use now, it's that good. I just miss the milkshakes, they went oddly well with a curry!

Brilliant food, absolutely delicious!

Had a delivery tonight, lovely food, boiling hot & a lovely delivery driver. Always good, but tonight was exceptional!

Wow. Quality ingredients and taste. Love the food from this place. Friendly staff who are always happy to make menu recommendations/chat. Quick service too. A+++

We order via on-line app so didn't have service interaction and can't rate the atmosphere. However food is absolutly amazing.

Ordered a take away from here on Sunday and it was amazing. Lamb tikka starter was perfect and the staff are so polite and kind! The best curry house in Portsmouth. :)

Regularly get takeaways they are always great, with fantastic service would recommend to anyone

I have ordered from wild mango via a delivery app for a long time so already know how tasty their food is, but today I collected my order in person, the ordering process on their site was very smooth and the staff are lovely and welcoming in person, I'll be ordering again before too long!

Fantastic service and very good quality food. Food was served hot and was delicious. Highly recommend. They go above and beyond, will definitely use this Indian takeaway again thankyou.

Incredible staff, very helpful very friendly always smile on their faces. The food sensational, delicious memorable flavours

Been eating from here last few years. Really enjoyed the food and excellent service.

Best curry I’ve had. Proper food, and amazing service. Would recommend 10/10. Thank you!

Well worth a visit have a good time with happy customers see you again soon thanks

A weird combination curry take away and milkshake. After ordering food they couldn't supply any eating utensils to eat the food. Not good when you don't live in the area, or city for that matter.

Absolutely amazing service! The staff was incredibly friendly and warm-hearted. We asked for hot Tarka Dal, Bhindi, Palak Paneer, with rice and roti, and it was exactly what we hoped for. Even without us mentioning it, the staff knew we preferred desi-style sugar-free food, and that's precisely what we received. Every dish was exceptionally delicious, especially the Tarka Dal, which I usually judge takeaways by. Their Tarka Dal was just perfect - medium to hot, sugar-free, bursting with Indian kitchen flavors, and cooked to perfection, not too bland or grainy. Highly recommend this place and I'm definitely returning for more during my two-night stay in the area.

Decided to order from here as was coming back from King's Theatre and thought it would make a change! The order: Onion bhajee- tbh was abit to crispy for my liking, but far from bad Brinjal bhajee - fantastic, and as an aubergine lover it's staggering how many get this wrong Red chilli bhuna (lamb) - as a bhuna fanatic it's always nice to have some variation. This was Definately hot but not at the expense of flavour. It was terrific Manchurian (lamb) - deffo spicy but again not at the expense of flavour!! Special rice: well cooked Keema Naan again well cooked and not soggy!!! All in all I was very impressed, as the food was tasty, interesting, spicy and flavoursome which is what I look for in a curry!! 20% off £25 and over was also a great bonus!! If you want a more varied menu and aren't afraid to try new things, Definately give this place a try

Average Indian takeaway. Probably one of the best in Portsmouth but anyway from a city with a good Indian population won't be impressed.

New customers tried here food was great, only reason for the 3 stars was missing rice from my order would of come back again as the food was nice may have to think again

Simpmy put, the best Chicken Jalfrezi I've ever had 👌 Sagg Paneer was a taste explosion, Friendly and very customer centric staff and experience, Will 💯 be using again.... and again 👌😎

Curries are too sweet. Chicken cooked perfectly though.

It saddens me to write this review because the food itself is delicious, but to be charged £1 for an onion salad that barely fills a teaspoon is disgraceful. I know we are in a cost of living crisis, but seriously? I wouldn't have paid more than 10p for the smallest onion salad I have ever seen served in a grotty bag. I have a photo, but Google won't let me attach it to this review

Very nice food is very friendly people highly recommend to everyone who love Indian food 🥘 they are the best in Portsmouth

Great food and good guys. Recently added proper milkshakes as well which go well with the food.

The man at the front is just the loveliest. Great food always. Just recently tried their new shakes which are loads better than I expected.

Always a great curry from Wild Mango, we’ve been using them for years and never had a bad one. Always friendly and professional on the phone, the food arrives on time and piping hot. Thanks for a great service and keep it up. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We find this the best takeaway in town, and we’ve tried a few!

Amazing food, ordered yesterday and going to order again today. Top food 😋

Really great food and excellent fast service

Friendly staff and very tasty food

Really nice food and the staff are incredibly helpful

Local curry house! Get some take out 👍 Good food. Nice staff/owners. They deliver too. Original review was six years old! Here in 2022… The food is still superbly cooked. The portion sizes will leave you feeling competely stuffed and the guys are nice, and friendly. Highly recommended.

Really good food, good value for money. friendly and polite service and fast delivery. This will be my new local

Food was mouthwatering fantastic flavours recommend to anyone that visit Portsmouth

Excellent meal always,staff helpful and food arrived pronto.

Beautiful food, loved it! Everything we've had from Wild Mango has been lovely, and the guys working there are friendly and cheerful. Great Indian food, I'd highly recommend it!

best takeaway currys i had in pompey always cooked exactly how i want it. would definately reccomend

1 of the best takeaway in Portsmouth

Very enjoyable food. Friendly staff and warm welcome when going to collect.

Honestly so good. Normally you get an Indian covered in grease, but this was grease-free and tasted very fresh. 10/10 not going anywhere else from now 👍👍

Absolutely the nicest curry I have had for ages. Quick delivery too! Totally recommend.

Thank you so much for making me feel less awkward, having a coconut allergy is the worse nightmare for most but you made the most amazing food without any worry and it tasted so good! We will be back!

Delicious meals and fabulous service. Always super friendly and courteous

Best Indian food in Portsmouth by far

First time I've ordered from wild mango and I couldn't fault it at all so for that reason not only will I tell my friends and family but I don't think I will order from anyone else but wild mango thanks to the chiefs as well as the staff that take the orders 100 % satisfied 👍

Food never disappoints, well done

Even though the food quality is always amazing, every order I have made with wild mango has always been late even though I always pre order hours in advance. yesterday I ordered at 5pm for delivery at 8pm however it didn’t arrive until 9pm! I tried calling them constantly however the line was engaged all evening. I mentioned it to the delivery driver when the food finally arrived and he didn’t even apologise or acknowledge what I was saying.

usually great takeout but tonight waited over an hour and received one crushed popadom....will be reviewing this before ordering again (shame!) #disappointed :(

My curry was nice but my partners not great. Also the veg rice wasnt good-veg tasted old and gave the rice a weird taste. The poppdoms were also stale.

Tried wild mango after being recommended by a friend and what a good shout! Quick friendly delivery food was fresh and hot. Best chicken tikka dansak I've ever tasted.... Beautiful flavours can't wait to try all the other dishes will definitely be ordering again soon and recommend to anybody who loves Indian cuisine

Very tasty curry and great service.

Not impressed at all, second time wild mango has disappointed me. First time was over 2 hours late for my order and now they got some of my order wrong and food wasn’t even warm. I feel like they are loosing their touch!

The food was so beautiful, would highly recommend to all.

Great food for a great price and 30 minutes earlier than expected

Upset 3 of the 6 peoples belly the next day

Brilliant service excellent food really enjoyed the meal

total waste of money, king prawns like bullets and chicken well over cooked, sauce from a jar?? il never order from here again

Was ok food. Didn't have a fresh cooked feel. The chips and chicken balls were definitely heated up again. Otherwise though it was fine.

best korma I’ve had in a long time! thank you!!!

Initially happy that it was early, but the chips were cold and the rice had obviously been sat round a while. Curry had no flavor to it, extremely disappointed.

brilliant food early time order again

Food was lovely and good quality. Only criticism is portion sizes are smaller than other local takeaways and you have to pay extra for popodoms. Curry tasted amazing though!

excellent quality, not the biggest quantity but that suits us very well. Not the cheapest but you can tell the difference.

fab food! always order from here.. best Indian around

We ordered food for a certain time but it was a Saturday night so it was obviously busy, and they called us to make us aware of the delay. The food was, as usual, amazing. We ate until we were full and then carried on eating cos it was just so nice. Best Indian takeaway in Portsmouth, hands down!

Good curry, not greasy! Needed warming up when arrived. Would use again!

Quick delivery but the food was luke warm and the jalfrezi lacked any real flavour or punch.

Came 25 minutes early which was bit too early as I was in shower and just came out when it arrived, missed calls for 5 minutes then picked up to a rude delivery man. rice had brown blobs in it no idea what from looked like mashed meat. korma was super good!

Fantastic food, best takeaway we've had in a long time, maybe ever!

Food was super delicious and delivery guy was lovely 10/10!

WOW !! After trying different curry houses last few weeks I was recommended Wild Mango and I’ve struck gold. probably the best curry I’ve had. look no further !! everything was delicious and fresh. thank you !

First time used and they were fantastic

By far best Indian I’ve ordered. Will 100% order again, chicken was cooked perfectly and it all tasted so fresh. Lovely

The food was good and filling and the collection time was spot on. I liked ordering this food and would recommed.

Lovely food nicest food we've ever had

Amazing food and service highly recommend 10/10

quick delivery, polite driver, tasty fresh food. can’t fault it!

Excellent food, best Indian I’ve had since being in Portsmouth.

Pre order was 20 mins late food was missing curry was awlful. Very sweet for a tikka masala it was sickly. Onion bhaji had two lots one were over cooked and hard and one was dripping with fat. My nana was missing. Overall this is the worst curry we have had in a long time it has giving me and my husband bad belly. Wish we hasn't decided to try a new curry house

Nice fresh hot food enjoyed would order again if in the area again

First time ordering from here. And will definitely be using here in the future.

fantastic food & multiple orders from here and not been let down once. highly recommended

Amazing food. One of the best Curry' s we've had. We will defnitley be ordering again

Nice food would sertenly order again 👍

Top quality meal. I ordered spicy food and got spicy food. very nice.

Hands down the best Indian takeaway around! The food is always delicious, hot and correct. Delivery is usually earlier than expected too. Always happy with our food from here! Can't wait to order again!

Chicken tikka balti was nice, The meat Samosa’s are not that great tho and you get 2 small ones.

ordered 4 popadoms and I was charged for them when the food arrived they had only given us 2, although it’s not a lot of money however if they do this it would soon add up, without providing customers with what they have paid for, this has put me off ordering from here again when we called they just brushed it off

said it was delivered on time but are still waiting now 20 minutes late

All good apart from Naan bread cold and hard.

Arrived during time slot, piping hot yummy and Morisot.

Food was delicious only fault was they forgot the onion bahji we ordered

Lovely food. Best Indian we have had. Was delicious. Thank you

Perfect lovely vegetable curry’s!

Amazing food, will definitely be ordering again soon!

First and last time I order from here. The rice and madras were lukewarm so once I dished it up it was cold within minutes. Also a lot of water came out of the rice, so the meal was just sat in a puddle on the plate. The madras had a horrible strong zesty lime taste to it for some reason. It was over powering and tasted awful. The madras sauce was not thick as described on the menu, but runny and inedible. The chips were also inedible. They were stone cold & rock hard. The mint sauce was a bright orange colour for some reason and the consistency of water. I didn't bother to phone and complain, because if the restaurant can let food like this go out the door to its customers, then they obviously have no clue. I would not recommend this place as it's a big waste of money. This form makes you give a minimum of 3 stars. My true rating is only 1 star for the free poppadom they gave me

food was nice was bit disappointed no salad or mint sauce with chicken tikka

Superb food. This was my first time ordering and it was on time, really tasty and hot.. delivery driver was polite too. will definitely be ordering again.
