The Chef & Spices in Cambridge

As this is local, I tried them out and thought it was the best curry I've had in Cambridge for a while, and that includes some well known curry places. The portions were good and looked like it had been properly cooked (not meat dumped in a sauce), the bombay potato and lamb dishes were excellent. I suggest giving them a try.

Very nice authentic flavour with yummy tender alfaham chicken and mandi along with it…… The staffs were very nice and friendly. Would definitely recommend my friends to try their Alfaham Chicken Mandi. Will come back to try new foods from their menu.

Thought this takeaway although very tasty was also very expensive. We had chicken tika with pilau rice and king prawn with pilau rice, a portion of bombay potatoes. 4 poppadoms which came as 1 and a half poppadoms in 4 bags. We were charged £12. for these and they were rubbery. The whole meal came to £45. It would have been £50 but we collected it so saved £5. We have paid less to eat in an Indian restaurant. Would we order a takeaway from there again? NO.

We have ordered Kerala chicken biriyani , which was really really tasty . Very flavourful and exactly how Kerala biriyani should be . Thank you for the yummy biriyani . Best ever Kerala biriyani in Cambridge .

I ordered some Malabar chicken curry and lamb dhansak and poratas to go with it. They were all excellent. Would definitely recommend this place to all my family and friends for some very authentic Indian food. I will be back soon for more.

Tried the chicken madi . it was really tasty and so flavourful , tasted exactly like the one your get from india , the sause was out of the world. staffs were really helpfull and kind . All all my british buds out there trust me its worth the try.

Got some surprise guests at home late in the evening and we decided to give this new Indian spot nearby a try. Was very pleased with how everything tasted. The Meen Pollichathu was very tasty and would recommend this place.

The food was amazing, was surprised by the authenticity and freshness, as there aren't many Indian takeaways that sell good food like this. the service was pretty fast and the staff was lovely. I ordered a lamb biryani with samosa, and they were delightful, definitely recommend them, especially with pappadams. I bought a pack of banana chips as well and they were very good, it was my first time trying them and it might be one of my favourite Indian snacks. I wanted to show appreciation thus writing this review, thank you.

New Indian takeaway so I decided to give it a try. I had the mutton korma, garlic naan and some onion bhajees. Everything was very delicious, especially the naan. Reasonable price as well. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and gave me a 10% discount on my food. Definitely will be coming back to try some other things on the menu.
