Delicious! Lots of variety and some dishes I’d never tried before. Lamb was perfect, melt in the mouth.
Huge kudos to them for being the only place serving food until late - a real saviour at the end of a long day.
As others have pointed out, they only take cash.
I’d also suggest that they get some jugs for tap water for the table - having to ask for a glass of tap water every few minutes felt a bit embarrassing (turns out I can’t handle my spice as well as I thought haha!). But otherwise great!
Nice local curry house, service isnt the best and forgot to bring us our drinks order at the start. Food was nice 😊 This place is cash only meaning that if you have no money and the only cash point in Helmsley is down which is across the road you're buggered.
Great guys, ordered the night before closing and popped over the road for a dink whilst waiting for my take away.
Turned up after their official closing time which was my fault and the restaurant and kitchen was closed which I knew was my fault not being there in time if I read the opening hours etc. correctly.
Made a phone call the following night and the establishment honoured my previous order considering it was was my mistake. Thank you
To confirm I had the rogan josh with a plain rice and it was fantastic, real lamb, not like the "mutten dressed as lamb" from other establishments visted previously.
Thank you, will be looking to dine in the restaurant in the future from the takeaway experience.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you

Great food. One of the best Indian restaurants I've had the pleasure of dining in. Great choice of food to satisfy everyone spicy pallet.Service was really good without being too imposing. All four of us had something different and all said how fresh the food was and how you could taste the spices rather than the usual overbearing of heat. Will definitely be back when next in the area.
Ignore the olde worlde decor, and enjoy the food. The service is very gracious and helpful. The naan breads were freshly made and outstanding. The main courses were superb and very plentiful - go when you are hungry, or ask for a takeout of what you can't eat, which is what we did.
On the downside, it does take a while to prepare the food but, if that means it is freshly made, it is worth the wait.
Great service and lovely food. First time in a long time I have seated rather than takeaway.
Not their fault but not a fan of fan heaters
We thoroughly enjoyed our meal as the service was great and the food was delicious. The portions are very large so don’t order too many side dishes - you will struggle to finish it. Chef’s special sauce is a welcome addition to the pickle tray.
Great tasting food and staff are friendly, CASH ONLY.
Great little Indian
Wide choice of different dishes
They appear all freshly cooked with big portions
Service is a bit slow, but that’s coz they were busy
Well worth going to
We just walked in but we took one of the last tables, so booking may be advised
Beware- cash only. It nearly caught us out!
Really nice food, they did miss something from the order bit quickly rectified. Had the tandoori mixed grill with naan bread. Will be going back again
I am very picky with Indian food but the meal I had at Helmsley Spice was absolutely gorgeous from the pickle tray to the main.
I had the pickle tray, then the Onion Bahji and finished with Butterchicken and Special Fried Rice, cannot knock anything at all, everything was so so tasty, and service was excellent, polite and did not pester. Thank you to all for a lovely meal and evening. Will definitely be back.
Food is consistently great, I did collect an order on this particular evening early on, so I can't comment on atmosphere. On this visit the colleague working seemed to wake past my daughter and a few times to talk to what looked like another colleague eating on a break??? Anyway, awesome curry
Ordered takeaway food tonight from this little gem, absolutely mind blown, food was 1000% on point! staff friendly and very courteous..... I'm a foody and have travelled the UK... and been just about everywhere, and this Indian by far beats any of the rest I've been to hands down! I suggest you ignore the pompus rats leaving any less than 5 star reviews and also those little rats moaning about cash only...I support any business that takes cash... as for the ones moaning and also the tax man, stop being jealous NON$ES!
There is nothing worse than a rat supporting a cashless society!
Spot on food, we both loved every bite, and next time I'm down this way, I'm going for round 2!
Thank you 👍👍
Faultless.
Thank you Helmsley Spice.
We ordered a huge order for a works function and Helmsley Spice were more than equipped to fulfill it. I collected the order and the gents were super helpful loading my car, they were more worried about Spillages than I was (not my car!)
The food was all tasty & the meat was very good quality (no grizzly bits). I tend to find rice quite boring but this was wonderfully flavoursome. Around 150 people all gave praise to the food and many said they would now use Helmsley Spice as their take away at home.
We ordered a Takeaway as been recomended. Phoned in and we collected 30 mins later. Subllime Vegatable Rice big chunks of Potato, Onion, Green Beans. Chicken Tikka Rogan Josh tender & huge portion. Mustard Chicken again lots of Chicken & lots of mustard other half loved his dish
One of the best Indian meals we have ever had!
Very attentive service and lovely traditional interior.
We can’t wait to go back. Thanks guys 😊
The food was beautiful here.
So filling!
We got a table straight away and we're served quickly.
My meal were spot on!
The food here is wonderful and there are a long list of vegetarian options as well. The service is very relaxed and the restaurant always popular. I wish there was a branch in Malton!
