Spice Merchant Keralan Indian Cuisine

The food was very good more expensive that what I pay at home but saying that the portions were quite big

Always good, always reliable. Lovely vegetarian choices. Too many interesting options, so let a friend put together a sharing banquet that combined really well

Genuinely really nice food; best indian ive ever had #35) and my partner said best since Scotland #38)home of uk curry apparently) will definitely be coming back Voir le carte

Friendly bunch. Good food. It’s rare to get authentic South Indian in the uk but this is it if slightly altered to uk tastes I like taking a masala dhosa for a walk along the river

Second time I have been. Had a great Dosa meal last time. This evening the spicy soup was hot but not too much so it kept the flavour. Delicious. Main course came with huge piece's of chicken. Sauce was spicy but smooth. Chicken cooked very well. Great service.

The popadoms were nice and the sauces which came with them. The onion bhagi and somosa was tasty. However the chicken masala tasted like tomato soup with a very sweet flavour. It did not taste like a typical masala and was just odd. The naan bread and rice was tasty. The restaurant was was nice and the service was good. Voir le carte

Went here as part of a group from work. Staff were all friendly and welcoming with the restaurant clean and tidy. The menu has a great variety of dishes and the food was served quickly even with all eight of us ordering different mains, rices and breads and was hot and fresh. The hot towels at the end of the meal were also a very welcome addition!

We have been eating from here for two months now and I have waited to see how consistent the food was. First, the service has been excellent, polite, efficient and friendly. Second, the food quality has been superb, well spiced and fresh. Third, I like heat, I normally have a chicken zalzala which is cooked with whole fresh chillies and it is spicy but also delicious. I have discovered another medium spiced dish which is the best curry I have “ever” eaten! It was a chicken chettinad. Please try this dish it was out of this world!

Really frustrated. I ordered delivery and it took 2 whole hours to arrive. I was told the driver did not leave until 1.5 hours after I ordered, even though I was told it would take 30 mins to an hour. The phone operator was aware how many miles away I was but the driver made out like it was my bad for ordering on a busy Saturday. The polite thing to do would be to offer a discount to say sorry for the wait, yet I was still made to pay £5 for a 2 hour delivery of cold food. Really disappointing customer service, especially as I've given this place a lot of custom. Voir le carte
