Spiceland

Visited 3/26/2023. Ordered chicken fried rice & two vegetarian options. Tasty. I like how the restaurant separate the food groups. Great customer service

Not a very good experience about the food. Staff were exceptionally polite and good. We ordered some food specially chicken biryani, masala dosa and some starters. My feedback about the dosa is good, crispy and delicious. However, when the biryani were served hot, no fork and knife were given for couple of minutes. Even after requesting for knife and fork to the owner (I guess), he gave us Spoons and Forks, no Knives. It was hard to cut chicken with fork and spoon, but gave a try. The chicken pieces in Biryani were with skin and bone. Generally people expect skinless and boneless chicken though. there were no salt and pepper on the table. My constructive feedback will be: 1) Replace your chicken with boneless chicken breast if possible 2) Ask your chef if he can review the salt in his recipe 3)Always place salt and pepper in the table 4) Salad option Thank you!

Very good homely food. Make sure to try the fresh rolls, kothu roti, chilli chicken, chicken 65. And mostly to finish your meal of with a freshly made masala tea! Friendly owners and staff very accomadating! Cheap prices, can't go wrong.

The place is well located, can be found easily on the main street. It's a corner building. The staff are really friendly and kind. Food is served quick and hot. Taste is good and the food is value for money. Ambience is average.. Would rate this restaurant as a quick breakfast /lunch /dinner restaurant rather than spending hours in it. OverAll good experience. If you're looking for South Indian and Srilankan food for a budget friendly price and good service. This is the place to go.

Very nice simple food and lovely service. Had the kottu and aubergine curry (and a very nice cup of masala tea)- great value and nice flavours

Good food …but took ages to cook ..because everything is cooked fresh so worth the wait

We loved visiting Spiceland, don't be put off by appearances the food is fantastic and if you don't know what anything is then just ask. Very popular locally their food is traditional (spicy!) But fantastic, you can leave feeling fuller than full for less than £25 for two including a wine each!!

Even though I'm a regular, I believe there's plenty of room for improvement. First, the food. Let me begin with coconut chutney. The chutney tastes of coconut oil, which makes it a bit bitter. On a couple of occasions, I was served with lukewarm chicken biriani that didn't taste well. Second, they sometimes leave cartons in the eating area, presenting not a great sight while eating. Otherwise, it's a good place. The people are super friendly and courteous.

Spice land a neighboring restaurant - sits right next to my neighboring door. Paid multiple visits to this casual dine in restaurant with friends. Here is my review about Spice land - that says they specialize in srilankan and Indian fare. Ambiance - 2.5/5 A small casual dine in place - with a huge lamp post at the entrance, which is never decorated though The moment you step in you will notice a small bar counter. And a staff with a warm smile The seating is very minimal and holds up to 30 odd seating capacity. Basic seating options nothing great nor is their ambiance. Food -3/5 (overall) Been here for dinner multiple times And here are the ones we tried Tandoori chicken - 2.5/5 The chicken is too dry and lacks spices, and to my surprise they add curry leaves on top of it. At times we see the chicken kept in display and they just reheat it and give it back to us, which is disappointing. At least dishes like tandoori chicken aint done this way Chicken tikka - 1/5 (sad - passable dish) Please just avoid ordering this dish. The chicken breast pieces used to cook chicken tikka are undoubtedly old or too dry, With no marination or seasoning to it. The meat is chewy again! In one word it is disaster The portions are too less. Ghee dosa - 3/5 (descent one to order) Surprisingly - the dosa is pretty decent but they hardly used any ghee in the dosa, and it was Ghee roast, and the dosa looks pale and not roasted too. The chutney is too bland with no taste, Sambar is better. Vegetable Biryani -3/5 The vegetable biryani has loads of spices, veggies cooked well It is on a spicier note. So make sure you handle spice well if you are ordering this dish. Chicken Biryani -2.5/5 To be honest the chicken biryani is good, the portion is descent and the biryani has loads of spices like cloves, dalchini and bay leaves. The chicken pieces are cooked well. Not the Hyderabad dum biryani though. But at times noticed when they do not have chicken pieces in biryani - they just add chicken from some dry chicken curry, starter and push it across. This is surprising and sad again. Mutton Biryani -2.5/5 The biryani rice is good and cooked with basmati rice, the mutton pieces are too small and looks as if it is kheema biryani than a mutton biryani, and some pieces are again chewy The main problem here is at times the food is descent, at times it's below par. They are not consistent in terms of taste. Service -3/5 The staff are good and they respond to things and are at least knowledgeable about their menu and what they offer. VFM 3/5 The reason I rate them 3 - the staff and prices are not too steep But when it comes to food - I'm not happy or convinced with their style of inconsistency in taste of food which is a major concern They need to work up the same Kinda skeptical to go back again till they improvise on things!

Spice land is in South London. This is a great place to get spicey savouries at great prices. It is a nice place to get mild, medium and highly spiced foods. It is all to the customers prefernce and that is important.
