Reviews Summary
Spice World offers a diverse range of Asian cuisine with some standout Indian dishes and a pleasant harbor view, often praised for good value and service. However, experiences can vary, with some diners finding the food average or issues with portion control and staff attentiveness during busy periods.
"Food was delicious. We had chicken tikka and chicken madras. It was really tasty and didn't need to wait for that long.
They also do a bit of Thai and Chinese food as well."

"The service of this place was great.
The atmosphere was great.
The food was just average. We tried butter chicken, biryani, mixed grill, etc.
Chutney was good and naan was excellent only."
Ahmad Aamir
"Had a very bad experience at the restaurant. We went there expecting nice and spicy Indian food but the food was very disappointing. We ordered chicken tikka and chicken korma which said tastes mild on the menu but both the dishes were really sweet and tasted entirely different from what we were expecting. Not only that the restaurant staff’s were rude as well they gave us lunch menu and hided the main menu so that we will only order from the given lunch menu which was only selected items. As we weren’t satisfied with the food ( small portions) we thought to get a bread/ naan but when we asked they didn’t take our order saying they will be closing soon. Moreover the serving staff kept on walking around our table to take out the plates while we were eating which I personally felt very uncomfortable. Not worth it! Never recommend."
