Thank you artistic spice for such an amazing meal. Your speed and quality of service was way above what I expected from a local Indian takeaway. The food arrived piping hot and well packaged, no greasy bags. I look forward to our next order :)

The food was fantastic and I’m a generally fussy. All the dishes had a different flavour and were nicely cooked. I loved the chargrilled prawn but the portion size was quite small for the money, but saying that I would order them again.
