    We decided to visit the Spiced Mango after hearing lots of good things about it. The restaurant is nicely decorated and spotless. After a short wait we were shown to a table towards the back. Thats when it all went downhill. A long wait for drinks and food orders then nearly an hour waiting for underwhelming food. The Bengal Lamb was bland and just tasted of tomato. Never cooked in strong spices as the menu says. No heat, no spice just tomato. Partner had the firecracker chicken which was hot but dry with large chunks of onion like it had been hacked by a blind woodsman. A small garlic and cheese nan with no garlic or cheese, so a plain nan. There seems to be a priority on the Just Eat deliveries given the number of times the delivery driver came and went over seated clients After asking for the bill numerous times and 2 hours later we finally escaped this ordeal. Never, ever again!!

    Stood at the bar for atleast 15 minutes before being seared altho we booked a table. 10 minutes to get even a menu, 45 minutes for starter's to appear. Finally got mains 1hr 45 minutes after arriving. 15 minutes later they wanted to take our plates....twice !! i hadn't even finished eating. Very poor service and the food didnt get any better. onion bhajis as dry as a bone, tastered supermarket bought. Mains were a cold , tasteless slop. Staff unhelpful and rude. Never again !!

    We've eaten in here and had takeaways numerous times and they're consistently good. The first impression made by them when you visit is how friendly they are. The food is excellent. Yesterday we had food delivered and it didn't dissapoint. Arrived within the time they said and was piping hot. Great job guys.

    The decor makes it a nice place to be. When we ate there the service and the food were excellent. Taking into account rising prices, it was very good value. I enjoyed the whole experience.

    We visited on a Monday night, expecting it to be quiet, yet there were plenty of people in. Which I'm guessing why this place has favourable reviews. I had the Spicy Tandoori Lamb Chops to start, followed by the Spiced Cinnamon Duck. The chops were ever so slightly dry (I prefer them nice and juicy), but the flavour was great. The main course however was a revelation! I must admit, it doesn't look amazing in the photo, but it tasted fabulous. If a little pricey at £19.95. The service was great and the staff were friendly. The place looked clean and done up like you'd expect a lot of Indian restaurants to be. I'll definitely be visiting again.

    Always enjoy the food here. Friendly staff. If you like a hot curry tell the waiter as it can be a bit on the mild side but they will adjust to your taste.

    If you want to enjoy this food I suggest you order a takeaway. Or don't go at the weekend. Possibly JustEat takes priority over customers who have booked tables? Saw many deliveries in thermal bags leaving the kitchen rather than full plates for hungry punters. Waited far too long for our food and were just about to walk out when the starters arrived. An hour and a half hours from arrival to eating. Food was good. But then again we were so hungry we would have eaten the tablecloth!

    Lovely food, grilled fish starter was gorgeous, their version of tikka masala was spot on. Great restaurant.

    Hands down the worst take away I've had in years. We ordered a Jalfrezi, the onions were literally raw, the potatoes were far too big, again under done in a bland tomato sauce, little to no actual flavour. We got a Biryani, which was actually not half bad but not enough to make up for the rest. That came with a free sauce which honestly we could've rather not had, it was vile. We got a Tandoori Roti, it was sweaty, cold and completely tasteless. We got chips but they were just standard bag chips, meh. The Onion Bhajis cold out the box and onions were raw. The best things about it were honestly the pop padoms :') We've eaten here loads before, in house, and it's been fantastic, but avoid the takeaways at all cost. We drove out of our way and paid £30 for a tasteless mush.

    Top place, a traditional curry house but with 1st class cuisine. Parking is limited, great local pub across the road. Staff very attentive, will be back.

    Enjoyed our second meal here approx 1yr. apart. Both were fantastic. Made a great meal from vegetarian sides whilst others said the lamb was fantastic, but perhaps could have even been a little smaller a portion. Thank you.

    Food was exceptional and friendly service. Will go again.

  • 2/5 Danny S. 1 year ago on Google
    Food arrived cold (Takeaway) Onion Bhajis were not cooked enough, resulting in them breaking apart easily (very doughy like flour taste). I’m not a fan of salt but even I was surprised to have to put some salt in the curries (Bhuna, Kahrai and Massala Desi) as the curry tasted very bland. Very disappointing and unfortunately will not be ordering again.

    Food was great but unfortunately Abdul and his gang didn’t know basic maths and decided to over charge us and take advantage of some young boys this is bang out of order, from now on I will only be eating English cuisine!
