    Great food, excellent service. Very friendly staff who would go extra mile to provide great service. Quite place, a great venue for family gathering. All in all tasty food with brilliant experience.

    We visited Indie Spice Grill for dinner accompanied by friends. A small enough group of 5. One of the few places we could get a last minute reservation that evening. First, the good stuff, the interior decor and ambience is quite nice, there is a water feature at the entrance which adds a nice touch. The options for vegetarians are severely limited which was a surprise. Normally an Indian restaurant is an easy choice when looking for a range of options for a vegetarian meal. There was also no flexibility to modify some of the non vegetarian dishes. The wait staff were clearly either inexperienced or just indifferent. Several small incidents throughout the evening made us feel like a burden to them rather than welcome guests. They came across quite rude on more than one occasion. At the end of the evening, we ordered dessert and that too arrived missing a key ingredient. It took several questions back to the kitchen for them to admit they had run out of it. What should have happened in that situation is we should have been told before-hand and given the choice to proceed or order something else. Instead of presenting us with an incomplete dish. We did give these bits of feedback to the manager on the evening and he was receptive, so hopefully the front of house experience will improve.

    By far the BEST Indian I have ever enjoyed. The service was fast and friendly, the food beyond exquisite and the overall experience outstanding. Will definitely visit here again the next occasion I am in Dublin. (Thank you Zubair for an excellent night!)

    Food was tasty and the whole place looks presentable... Will give the service at the rate of 9 out 10... Price wise - it's okay (it's not expensive but not cheap either) The last time we visited this place it was a bit noisy, maybe because were sitting next to the long table with 10 to 15 woman in it and talking all together at the same time... lol... All in all, the restaurant itself, the food and the service was great... Will definitely go back during the week when there's not much people around... I like to eat in a quiet and nice place where I can enjoy my food and me and my partner won't be shouting just to hear each other 😊

    Service, food was really poor! Extremely disappointing. We booked and brought our family for dinner and ordered starters, maim courses. It isn’t cheap. The quality, taste of the food was no where close to be authentic (that’s what they claim) and very bland curries. We had to ask for salt and pepper!! It’s Indian food and this is the basic ingredient. Than, the order was delivered wrong, we had the curries but wrong breads, which they brought 1 by 1. We ordered 6 breads and we got 1 between 5 of us, imagine waiting 4-5 minutes after each bite. Drinks ordered was not delivered and had to ask twice. The waitress asked how was everything and we said it was very disappointing. She just apologised. Even we said half the good is not eaten, asked her to pack the left over that we can add proper Indian spices at home and then eat. No apologies than. Asked for the bill and was surprised to see 15% service charge added. Felt like saying we don’t want to pay for the service charge but didn’t bother and paid the €200 bill and left. Never will I step foot in the restaurant or will recommend to anyone. Everest down the road is much better and service is better there!

    Rang to book a takeaway and got all the way through for delivery. After payment got a text to say ready for collection only. Obviously does not suit on a Sat night after having a drink waiting for dinner. Trying to cancel and left waiting. Terrible service for loyal customers. Still on hold trying to resolve. Not good enough. Still on hold waiting for help! Terrible service and waste of 56 euro OK nice mangers in Skerries and Swords sorted. Food arrived but cold and now in oven to warm up. Feels like the original order was left for an hour and shipped out. Refund being applied according to manager. Mediocre experience this time. Surprised we were still being expected to pay after such appalling service. Expected more based on previous positive experiences. Need to sort out online experience for customers which was known issue to staff. Order through Indie at Home if you want.

    It was first time testing Indian food, we liked all of them. It is 4 starts as we do not know if it is the best one. We ate lamb biryani, lamb korma and prawn plate i can't recall the name. They all were in different taste, did not burn our stomachs, not heavy, enough portion. Rashberry coctails were delicious. As a dessert we choose dessert plate, only mango ice cream was delicious for me but the rest also is interesting. It is recommended. Only one comment that it is a bit pricy but does not kill. Overall it was nice experience. The restaurant is big and nicely decorated. One small comment: side rice portion would be a little bit more, in my opinion it is not enough.

    Visited Swords city for work purpose and were craving for Indian food. Tried their chicken Briyani and lamb Briyani and fully satisfied with the portion and taste. Their mild spicy is too hot for us though, but manageable spiciness. I would highly recommend to try their Briyani.

    The best Indian food I've had to date. Amazing quality food, it's hard to choose which dish to get. I love how the kitchen is in open view and see the talented chefs at work. Great options on the menu and fairly priced especially for the quality of ingredients used. As well as the food the location is very handy with loads of parking and the place itself it very relaxing and spotless clean. Wide range of drinks options from delicious cocktails to ice cold Cobra on draught. Finally the staff are so friendly and welcoming. The take-away menu also a great option if you want to enjoy at home. Looking forward to my next visit

    Have had the pleasure of visiting this restaurant many times. The staff are very friendly here. The food here is always top notch and they will always try make what you order even if its not on the menu. I will miss the old pad pad tasting from the old menu. You need to get the mango lassi here it's to die for and maybe a king kobra too. Fav dishes are butter chicken, curry fish, lamb bhuna and a garlic and cheese nann.

    I often get indie at home for a takeaway and decided to finally check out the restaurant, which was the right idea. While the takeaway menu is more varied the menu in the restaurant is still superb. They had a great selection of food and many veggie options. I really love a place that focuses on the food instead of having more dishes as it allows them to perfect them, which they did. I got the Chana Masala and it was fantastic and perfect for my spice tolerance. The service was great as they were highly attentive and accommodating. A booking isn’t necessary but I would recommend one. I went when it was quieter but the atmosphere was still great. Also the restaurant itself was very well decorated and extremely clean. The only downfall is that the restaurant isn’t wheelchair accessible. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a place to go in swords!!

    Food and service was amazing, more on the expensive side but definitely worth the extra for quality food and service. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is very nice and clean but can be a little bit loud at times. Overall would recommend and definitely would go back.

    You know when someone says thay something is a hidden gem? I've lived near Swords for years and only been here the other day and regret not finding it sooner. Staff are great but the food is unreal. One of the best Indian restaurants I've ever been to. Anywhere. Doesn't fill the menu with too many options, what's on it is phenomenal. The best restaurant in North County Dublin

    Took my team there for a meal and wasn't disappointed. Variations on classic themes and good choice for all. Highly recommend their chops and all the starters excellent. Service good too, very patient with such a large group.

    Lovely food, just a bit disappointed that it was a set menu at 40 euro a head for mother's day. Also think staff hygiene could be improved, the last thing you need is someone serving you smelling of BO. But would recommend this restaurant the food and wine list is great 👍🏼

    We love Indian food and try out restaurants all the time. This is probably the best experience we have had in Ireland. Absolutely fantastic in every way. Well worth a visit. Couldn't recommend it more.

  • 5/5 R. R. 1 year ago on Google
    We visited tonight, we're from the Netherlands and don't have any good Indian close by so we really looked forward to going there. It exceeded our expectations! The staff was so kind and helpful, the place itself was beautifully furnished and clean and the food... it was unreal! Fantastic! When we come back to Ireland, we will definitely be back! Thanks for a lovely evening!

    Food is good but far too overpriced. Service very slow when I was there. They really should have more floor staff particularly with the prices they are charging. Menu does not offer much options.

    Absolutely amazing food. Stunning complex flavours. Staff were lovely, very friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back.

  • 2/5 Siobhan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered a takeaway including starters, tikka masala and sides from Indie Spice this evening for collection at 6.30. Got there early and food was sitting on the counter. We had to reheat everything even though we only live 5 minutes away. The chicken was cubed and looked like it was processed. It was tough and the sauce was spicy but without taste. It's a long time since we ate here but its really gone downhill and it's not exactly cheap. I won't be back.

    Price gouging at its finest! Used to like this place but after the cheek of the prices they have charged today for mothers day 'special menu ' as the staff called it I'll never set foot in it again. 40 euro per person for a 3 course limited menu, not even tea or coffee included. I even had to pay extra for naan bread. I asked is it possible to only have 2 courses as there was little on the starters we liked (all courses didn't have the standard traditional Indian dishes you would normally see) and we were told no it was 40 euro no matter what. We had 2 children with us and had to ask for the children's menu they were originally given the 40 euro one. I suspect it was because the traditional Sunday lunch menu was on the back of it and at 25 euro for 2 courses it was much better value. We were not allowed to order off this menu. All courses were fairly small, I counted only 5 pieces of lamb in my curry. The food and service were good but it is unforgivable to hike prices to this extent just because it is mothers day. 226 euro for lunch for 4 adults and 2 children is criminal.
