Reviews Taste Of Spice

It is a very small restaurant however along with the authentic building and actual number of dinners it doesn’t matter. The tasty was pretty good but I would prefer the rice to be a bit more boiled. The quality and quantity were a okay for the value of the money, it wasn’t something extra ordinary. But the service were extra special, friendly and fun. Enjoy 😉

Recommended by Chestnuts B&B If your didn't know the restaurant was upstairs you might miss it and that would be disastrous as this is most friendly, comfortable place we have been , all the food we had was absolutely delicious 😋 nothing but admiration for the chef, all authentically cooked fresh and presented with care . The service was excellent and Abdul is an absolute star 🌟

A bit of context: Last night I was an American tourist. I have also lived in the UK for 4 years 2011-2015. I like curries but American attempts are enough to make you think you may dislike this cuisine. This unassuming restaurant front leads to an intimate upstairs dining room. There, we were greeted by a friendly host who entertained and helped navigate this interesting menu. His cadence was excellent. The restaurant is BYOB. The menu contained numerous outstanding dishes. We tried Shatkora - a drier curry prepared with a citrus-y deep flavor. I learned this was a traditional Bengali dish and it was both excellent and unique. We had the vegetable version which was a mixture of cauliflower, potato, and peppers. We also got the Murgi Keema Buhna (a chicken buhna with ground lamb in the sauce.) Outstanding. The peshwari Naan was served with honey drizzled, a nice touch. The curry came with rice, which was aromatic and had been twice cooked (once steamed or boiled but then finished on a flat top grill.) All of this is excellent. Since we are in Bourton, you might think this place would cater to the high tourist volume. It *can*, I am sure, but this is truly an authentic curry house and definitely worth the visit if you are in Bourton for an evening. It really shines if you are sick of the usual pub food. Overall the food was great. The service was great. The price was very reasonable. I'll be back next time I am in Bourton.

Visited while on holiday with my 80 year old Indian mum. Delicious Food! Excellent chicken tikka and one of the tastiest tarka dahls I've had. Even my authentic Indian mum said it was tasty. The owner was very friendly and welcoming too. top bloke!. It's a shame we only decided to eat there on our last night otherwise we would be back for more.

I think only Indian take away in bourton. Only had take away..but upstairs testurant looked clean and peacefull with cotswold stone walls. Front of house most welcoming. Array of papers and magazines to read whilst waiting. If eat in can take own alcohol and beer and no corkage. Does Specialities and what you would expect. Prices ok and reflect area.

Oh my goodness what can I say! This was our first visit to this restaurant and it definitely won’t be our last. The Biryani I had is simply one of the best I have ever eaten and I have tried many. The host was so lovely, friendly and attentive which made our visit all the more enjoyable, and the young lady who brought our food to us was polite and friendly. The service couldn’t be faulted at all. It’s a takeaway downstairs but a small and tasteful restaurant upstairs.well worth a visit if you’re out that way. You won’t be disappointed.

This is a very small/intimate Indian restaurant The staff are super friendly and chatty, genuine down to earth people We had starters, mains, naan poppadoms and all was very nice and very tasty Nothing was too much trouble *** This restaurant is BYO alcoholic drinks as there is no licence *** If I could offer any feedback to this place it would be to add a little ambience by way of simple tea light candles on the tables. The difference this would make in somewhere as quaint as this would be noticeable. Just a thought.
