Spice in Gedling

We haven’t ordered from here before but sadly won’t be back, we ordered the meal deal which would have been great value for money if we ate it. The onion salad that comes with the popadoms had a very odd smell and taste, almost like they were kept in stale water, the popadoms were ok, we had a mixed kebab starter which had a really nice onion barji, two small pieces of tandoori chicken which were tasty but a tad dry, and a lamb kofta which wasn’t nice, it wasn’t cooked enough and had a hair going through the middle. The main course was a chicken Balti, this was ok, but it wasn’t spicy at all, for a medium curry I would expect a little spice, there was 4 thin slices of chicken breast. The rice was fine, the side dish was Bombay potatoes, I have never had Bombay potatoes that were made from new potatoes, they tasted like they had tomato purée on them, a little weird. All in all I we was very disappointed and won’t be ordering again from here

Always good food and good service - even when you place an order and then have to phone up to add to it! Sorted easily and without fuss. Thank you

The restaurant was terrible. Never ordering again! I placed an order at 6pm. The estimated delivery time was 6:50pm. I called at 7.11pm, asking for an update on the delivery (I expected it to be late as every time we've ordered something from Spice its been late). I was told that it would be 10min before it would leave. It hadn't even left yet. I said ok and waited. At 7:40pm I called again. Asking for another update to my order. They said the exact same thing. It hadn't left yet and it would leave in the next 10min. They offered me a discount on my next order (which I turned down) and they offered to make my order priority, so it would go out asap. I took this and thanked the person I was speaking with. I said ok, more annoyed and hungry now, and waited. At 8:40pm I called a third time. I was met with a different person to the last 2 times. He was very blunt and dismissive. He said it had left 5-10min ago and would be here within 10 minutes. I said ok and waited. Finally at 9:06pm I called and I had a different man again answer the phone. He was now trying to get onto me, saying the driver was downstairs 5 min ago and called me 3 times. I have used deliveroo for years and never had someone say they called me and it not go through. Ontop of that I had ordered from Spice before and there was never an issue when calling me. I had my phone by me the entire night and I had 0 calls from a delivery driver. I told him he was lying. He continued to tell ME I WAS WRONG. The audacity. I hung up and cancelled my order.

This was a really mixed experience. Firstly, even though we ordered through Deliveroo they do the delivery themselves. Therefore the timings shown on Deliveroo are not correct and our food arrived 50 minutes later than indicated. We also have the feeling that they assume we are ignorant about Asian food. Firstly we ordered veg pakoras yet received samosas. Then lamb methi (fenugreek) didn't contain any of the vegetable, the sauce consisting mainly of peppers. There were some clearly home-made relishes with the poppadums - very enjoyable. The Peshwari naan was excellent and also notable that the main courses were in generous quantity, plenty left over for another dinner. The garlic chilli chicken was inedibly spicy - OK, fair enough, they did warn us! The lamb in the 'methi' was extremely tender. The tarka dhal was right up there with the best we ever ate. Would we order from Spice again? Yes we would....

Sorry to say but the food can only be described as bland. Not the slightest bit spicey. My daughter who finds pepper spicey said it was sweet…. Very disappointing as food used to be fantastic from here.

Amazing food with great service!

Amazing food! Highly suggested for anyone wanting to order! Brilliant customer service from the manager 🙌 🔝🐶

brilliant food with great costumer service can’t complain about anything i ordered and amazing management

Staff are friendly!!! Food is beautiful!!! Our favourite choice for a take away!!! Cheers Bash!!

Use to be good. Gone downhill massively this last 9 months!! Service terrible, quality not so good, delivery shocking!!

The food is always excellent and so is the service - Bash remembers his regulars and is always welcoming and keen to go the extra mile. Highly recommended

First time ordering/eating from spice, 5* all round amazing food, service & staff, highly recommend!

Absolutely love this place, order alot from here, the food always comes hot and it tastes just beautiful 😍 10/10 definitely recommend 👌

Excellent food, fantastic service especially Bash. Always a pleasure to deal with.

First time ordering, will defo be ordering again lovely food

Bash is very professional really recommend food is out of this world

Been using spice for may years now. Never once had a bad experience. Food is 2nd to none, staff are also very friendly. Number 1 choice for a Curry in the Nottingham area

Very disappointing, worse curry I have had and I have had a lot! Tasteless and not spicey at all. Rice very dry as if it was old and warmed up. Gone down hill over the last year. Please don't waste your money as its not cheap either. What a shame as it used to be good. Won't be going back again.

We had a delivery from you last night,(2nd Aug), and it was absolutely fantastic!! The best curry we have had in a long time. Thankyou so much.

Absolutely vile food wouldn't feed it to my dog ordered a korma couldn't believe it i can't even compare it to anything I've ever had other than gone off slop definitely wouldn't recommend don't waste your money tbf

Heard about this restaurant takeaway so had to try and it did not disappoint the staff was really friendly and the food when served up was 10/10 would recommend to any one looking for a tasty takeaway

Nice food with good portion sizes, timely delivery, friendly delivery driver (ZAB)

I never really write reviews, as when I have a bad experience I just brush it off and think it may have been a mistake. But I will never order from spice again as my partner and I never enjoy our meals. The curry’s are so plain and have no real taste. And for the price that you pay, you can’t even enjoy it thinking ‘you get what you pay for’ because you don’t, it so expensive making it more frustrating when it’s inedible. What a waste of £50🤦‍♂️

no apology about being late, wasn't the best experience

nicest curry I've had delivered in a long long time...highly recommend 👌 thank-you

I ordered at 18.11 my order didn't show up till 20.25 when ringing the restaurant for help they were not willing to help me at all. won't be ordering from here again

Over an hour late and item missed off order.

App indicates a completely false delivery time. Shows as delivered when food hasn’t even left restaurant yet. Very frustrating to ring and find order that is already late will be at least another half an hour. Think twice about ordering from here if you want your food delivering promptly! Not the first time order from here has been late.

Lovely like always! Bit pricey but wouldn’t use another curry house! A*****

the taste was amazing 100% number 1 curry house, always been my favourite, the portions are brilliant and the taste is beautiful

I am a regular customer at spice but my experience wasn’t great . My order was 45 minutes late and the madras( which I have every time) was made with way to much spice! I couldn’t even eat it unfortunately

Had an issue with my deliveroo order where I forgot to order rice. Called the restaurant and I spoke to Bash who told me it was no problem and they would send it out anyways. Incredible service and even more incredible food. Will definitely be ordering again.

Incorrect naan sent and food was lukewarm. Disappointing!

Late delivery, otherwise good quality as always.

Being a fussy eater can be a issue .... spices makes that easy .... food was spot on ... recommended

Ordered once Ordered twice .... and I'm definitely ordering again ..... being a fussy eater is not east.....

Late every time. And in the restaurant they must be selecting that your delivery has been delivered! , as it always says it’s been delivered but when you call they say it’s just leaving. And turns up 20 mins late. Great food but always late and longer than expected delivery time.

Always perfect, they did forget an item but re delivered in super quick time. The food is always piping hot and so tasty

nice food, poor service and communication, apparently the delivery folks also don't get access instructions. food turned up nearly an hour after due time and flagging as delivered on the app. One assumes a busy/bad night, as meal was its usualy good quality.

Dont use the time estimate on your app as a guide. They take roughly 85 minutes to deliver. Its one of those "we'll be hungry in 2 hours lets order it now" sorta places. If your hungry now try elsewhere

Been ordering from here for a good decade. Always has been my favourite takeaway, never misses 🤌

Unbeatable place, always read the comments and accommodate if you want hotter/milder curries, always perfect

Huge order as had the family round, everything there and everyone agreed great food

Really nice food. At full price it's expensive, but if you can get an offer it feels like great value.

Was literally on time… we had an offer so we treated ourselves and it was litrally10/10 was the best food we had in a very long time! Was red hot when came portion size was brilliant! Thanks guys. Very very happy customers 😃

Just incredible! Delicious! Wish I could eat the whole menu at a time!

Very very tasty& good portion. All the way from mapperly to wollaton and still hot. Very well packaged and presented, will defo order again. Thankyou

Despite the late delivery, food was absolutely delicious!!! As always!!

Food was lovely but took over two and a half hours to arrive.

Long time regulars of spice but tonight’s order was a joke. Showed as delivered at 9pm. Rang at 9:20pm to see where it was and told it would be 20mins. 30mins later phoned again to be told it hadn’t left yet. 10:25pm we gave up and ordered from elsewhere. Hopefully we’ll get a refund.

Sent chicken garlic chilli masala when ordered lamb, paid extra for it too!

average at best,extremely late....judging from reviews which I read after I ordered it seems to be a common occurrence. won't be ordering again I'm afraid.

Loved our food it tasted delicious!! 100% coming back again. Service is fantastic too all so kind and helpful!!

Order never turned up, asked for an update and they never got back to me. Still waiting now..

Excellent food and service thank you.

Late delivery & not helpful in the shop!!

Really not good. Delivery was approximately 45 mins and it was over 90 mins. Cold food and the sauce was just oil like it had been thinned out so much there was no taste left.

This place used to be ok, not sure what happened. Worst curry I’ve had in ages and not cheap!

It shouldn’t be cheaper to order from Uber eats than your website and £3.95 delivery when ordering direct with yourself seems excessive

PERFECT 👌 arrived hot and tasty ...ace service all round x

Been ordering from here for a while and food arrives hot, tasty and cooked brilliantly. Compliments all round from chefs drivers and managment .

Food was really good, just some dips missing and the salad

The best Indian in Nottingham I have got the whole family ordering from here now and we all refuse to order anywhere else! The food is perfection and the staff are amazing thanks again guys it’s always a treat ordering from here

Better than going out for food the quality and taste is just amazing

The best! you will never be disappointed staff and food are just amazing

The best in Nottingham! food is always hot and delicious

Food was still hot. Vindaloo was delicious and the rice was cooked to perfection. Poppadoms were a bit meh, but they were complementary.

Always great, can’t beat this place

Didn’t mean to leave a bad review previously, complete mistake- will always be my go to Indian takeaway :)

Absolutely amazing currie, best I've had in a long time, food was cooked perfectly, was hot, loads of flavour, lamb was the best, we really enjoyed it,

Waiting an hour and a half for delivery from the time the app said it was out for delivery. Food was stone cold. Usually good service and food but today was shocking. Put us off from ordering in the future!

Food is all cold having to reheat it all never had this problem with spice before

I am fussy with food but was very nice and staff went out way to make sure address was right .. chicken was very nicely cooked

We ordered on-line and received a message giving an estimated delivery time of an hour and a quarter to an hour and half. An hour and a quarter after we ordered we received a message that the food was out for delivery. (We live 10-15 minutes walk from the take-away.) The food actually turned up no less than 45 minutes after the message was sent. Good food, but the delivery service is not fit for purpose.

Order was ready on time, nice pleasant staff, food was nice hot & even by the time I got home. Naans nice and fresh 5*

we live 12 miles away & are never disappointed with the quality of food or service .. Food always arrives red hot too ... 5 stars ..

odered at 19.11 but food didn't leave the restaurant until 20.59. nearly 2 hours just to cook the food.

Beautiful food, quick delivery. Ordered a selection of curries lamb and chicken , would definitely order again soon!

From a stated 25-40 mins, then after 40 mins stated was on its way and arriving by 21:00, finally arrived 21:32. Food was ok, korma lacking a bit of flavour but passable. Requested cutlery as in hotel, asked driver and he confirmed it was in there... it wasn't.

Lovely food, arrived on time and hot. Really good value too.

It wasn’t as nice as usual. Disappointed sorry 😏

We order regularly from this restaurant and never have an issue. This time, however, our food was delivered an hour later than the latest approximated delivery time. We understand that delivery times might be longer on a weekend (which is when we ordered) but then the app should give a better estimation on delivery time! Please can Just Eat organise a refund. By the time we received our order we (and our children) were ready for bed and no longer hungry.

absolutely beautiful food,I really enjoyed

I’ve had Spice takeaway many times. Quite simply the best takeaway you will have.

Great food but delivery is shocking, can be 1.5-2 hours for delivery it’s ridiculous

Delicious food, delivered in a big box, all hot and freshly cooked! I forgot the naan with the order. Phoned to ask if it could be added to the order, it was not a problem, great customer service, thank you!

I ordered the chicken madras which is the only curry I have, but the madras tonight wasn’t nice at all it tasted different/weird than usual like powdery, bitter and salty. It tasted that bad we couldn’t even eat it but also the same thing with the pilau rice and it left us wondering if it was a different chef tonight. Very disappointing and we ended up cooking which was defeating the purpose.

excellent as always! thank you Spice!

Amazing food as always! Delivered on time and they even let me add on a couple of extra dishes last minute! What a lovely start to Ramadan! 🤲🏽

Amazing food. The best Indian takeaway in notts!!!

Excellent, as always love, the fact they still use tin foil trays, not plastic, high-quality very delicious, highly recommended ordered chicken Madras 👍👍👍

Always enjoy a curry from spice always tasty and arrives on time or early

We stopped ordering from here for this reason, but friends said it was better 2 hrs wait

Great food as always cannot recommend enough 🍻🍻🍻🍻

Always good tasty quality food, really courteous staff.

Food was good, service was a shambles. Rang up regarding a question, absolutely woeful attitude (which judging by other reviews, is a regular occurrence) Won’t be ordering again.
