Spice Mahal - South Gloucestershire

Disappointing! We’ve been going to this restaurant for 20 years, and I’m afraid it seems to have gone down hill. Previously it’s been good, but this time all 4 curries seem to be the same colour, only differing with the spice and meat. Bland! Service felt rushed even though the restaurant was near empty. Drinks very expensive. Sorry, but this was out last visit.

It is literally is the best Indian Cuisine EVER! I go there with my family and it's just amazing I have the spicy curry

Staff were abrupt which made the evening awkward. With food still on our plates, we were asked several times if we had finished. The chicken was tough as though it had been warmed up a few times. Overall, rushed and unwelcoming, despite the restaurant being half full.

First visit and will be last one , service was average , but the food when presented was barely warm , plates were cold so overall waste of money , as this was a family meal and I had expressed my disappointment then it would of ruined the evening.

We have eaten at Spice Mahal before and had good food and service. However last night the service was almost worthy of a Basil Fawlty episode. The waiter was really rude when we dared to ask to reduce the amount of poppadoms from 10 to 8, making a huge deal about having to rip off the order from his note pad, storm away from the table, put it in a bin, come back and start the order again. He did this twice, it was so odd, his explanation being that if he didn't do this, the kitchen would get confused. He was so rude, I at first thought he was being ironic. It made us feel very uncomfortable. The food was ok, nothing special this time. The atmosphere was really quite odd, staff looked angry. I won't be back.
