This is the worst meal I've had from here , I won't be back clearly something's changed here and not for the better, disgusting!, the korma was a weird colour and seemed like it had separated it did not taste nice at all straight in the bin , the peshwari nan well as you can see it's burnt one the outside raw on the inside and the filling is non existent, I'm so disappointed, this place used to be good , not anymore.

A 16-inch chicken chashni calzone, filled with what seemed like pre-cooked, reformed chicken cubes, sitting in watery, bright red food colouring. It was so flat it fit in a regular pizza box, and the fillings were colder than the air around it. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize this until I got home. I briefly considered microwaving it to avoid wasting ~£15, but decided against putting my stomach through that. If you order here, check your food before leaving.

The food was excellent and the timing for deliveries is always great! There has only been 1 mistake from them and it was just 1 missing curry. They fixed this quickly and even threw in an extra naan bread as an apology.

We ordered for delivery several times now! Each time it is a constant quality and quantity. The chips vary slightly but that’s to be expected! They have messed up our order slightly one time but it was nothing too bad and they fixed it quickly. In conclusion i recommend this place a lot due to the service, quality and good timings even with deliveries!

I would not recommend it to anyone as it was simply a waste of money and left me feeling uncomfortable until the following day due to the tough meat, unpleasant taste, and lack of enjoyable flavor in the spice.

Spice of Life in Glenrothes is hands down the best Indian takeaway we've ever experienced! 🍛✨ From the moment we placed our order, we knew we were in for a treat with their warm and friendly service setting the stage for an unforgettable meal at home. The naan bread is simply perfect, providing the ideal accompaniment for dipping into the rich and flavorful tikka masala and korma. 🥘🍞 Every dish we tried was bursting with authentic spices and cooked to perfection. The kids loved the mild and creamy flavors, making it a hit for the whole family. When I'm dining without the kids, I love to challenge myself with their hot curry. Sometimes it's so spicy that it brings tears to my eyes, but it's always worth it for the incredible flavor and experience! 🌶️🔥 The staff at Spice of Life are friendly and efficient, ensuring that our takeaway orders are always accurate and promptly prepared. If you're in Glenrothes and looking for an outstanding Indian dining experience to enjoy at home, this is the place to be. Highly recommended for both family dinners and adventurous solo meals! 👨👩👧👦🌟 #SpiceOfLife #GlenrothesEats #IndianCuisine #Takeaway #CurryLovers

Not gonna lie this was the best takeaway we’ve had in a very long time, me and my man got the piri piri chips to share they were proper good and so full of flavor, my cheeseburger was perfect just how you want it.

They delivered a pizza to us that had clearly been dropped, cheese on only one side of the pizza. When we phoned to complain they immediately said we must have dropped the pizza, which we did not. Shocking customer service and the chips were shocking too, stale and hard. Will never order again.

Utterly terrible. Only thing that is half decent is the guys have a wee bit of banter in amongst all the nonsense. Food passible. The most vile thing I’ve seen in a long time in any take away which would probably have them shut down was the state of the forks in a giant dish. They looked like the were covered in mould. When asked for a fresh fork. Didn’t have any. How on earth are you supposed to eat your food? Guy couldn’t give a single second thought about it. Used to use the place years ago and it genuinely was the place to order from. Don’t take card at all. Why? Also over charged. Will not be back. Overall 1/5. Would not recommend.

Used to order all the time but after last night never again. Ordered pizza and chips and was told they were busy so would be an hour. Happy to wait. Called 1.5 hours and told on its way.

I have been ordering from Spice of Life for a while and its just getting worse and worse. I ordered from Just Eat and they are usually late. There was one time I ordered my dinner and the person knocked at my door then left without even waiting till I answered. Tonight I ordered a set meal for 1 and I got my main course but I never got my poppadoms, the woman said she would come back with them. But I had to phone up and after an hour I had to phone again, they said that they were busy and it would be another 20 minutes. Phoned up after the 20 minutes and told them to not bother. Not happy at all with this place anymore. This place has really went down hill fast, I am not even sure if they care. I do not think I will be ordering anymore. Sick and tired of the service.

Incompetent. When a customer asks for no onions, that tends to mean that they do not want you put onions in their calzone. You'd think that when you are paying £8 for a meal that you'd get what you ask for, but I guess that's just me being naive. I sure hope you take better care in preparing your food in the future as I wouldn't want someone with allergies to have a bad reaction due to failure to follow instruction.

A large by the way, a few pieces of chicken and a few of lamb followed by what could only be described as something I wouldn't feed my bearded dragon spike. The chicken and lamb were probably fine as well... Didn't offer a replacement and merely said "what you want me to do?". Onions were swimming in grease. Cheers lads.

Sunday 5th August: Me and my girlfriend were excited all day for a takeaway as a treat. Ordered chips and curry sauce and a hogi wrap. Returned home to open the food up to see a disgusting pile of chips with dry orange curry sauce slapped on top. This tasted as bad as it looked. I opened up my hogi wrap which wasn’t even properly wrapped and all the contents of the wrap were everywhere. The donnar meat overwhelmed the 10 odd chips and no sign of cheese anywhere, that was the icing on the cake. I paid £14 for this plus a bottle of juice and I can gaurntee you I will never be back again. The place is disgusting and they don’t care one bit about the “food” they are selling to customers.
