Asian Spice Ltd — Restaurant in England

Old school good - St Mary the Virgin (Purley) Men's Curry Club - Asian Spice REPORT....

I am delighted to confirm that reports of its demise are truly overstated, Asian Spice on Overdown Road, is very alive and very kicking.

OK so my loyalty card was never redeemed but the place did actually have a genuine refurb (unlike my beloved Tamarind Tree which is now a very posh block of flats in Lower Basildon). I also have a personal in into deep dark places and I can confirm that this establishment is reviewed as good-excellent by WBDC food hygiene.

In summary - GREAT curry, GREAT venue (I could walk) and really GREAT service -It got a big thumbs up from me. Just to mix up the evening a bit and keep everyone guessing we had a short quiz too, needless to say I won that (note to Agitated from Purley - this forum does not support a right of reply!)

So the next venue is to be decided as is the date and time but I welcome suggestions (see next para)

Curry being the ambrosia of Tilehurst we will group as happy fellows and banded brothers for another evening of high taste at a venue to be decided some time soon - probably after Lent (who'd of thunk it!). Please put in your requests now and let me know what tickles your fancy. All suggestions are entertained and valued before they are ignored!

If you intend to come along, would like a lift, or can offer a lift -...

I have been eating at your restaurant since they was a small takeaway only and today I was very upset.

We ordered the food and drinks, my wife’s fruit juice had large lumps of Mold in the glass which she noticed after taking a drink from it. When I brought this to the young waiters attention all I got was a “oh I will get you another” we said no just a bottled water thinking that was a safe option till again my wife took a drink and on the bottle lid it said 21/2/21water was out of date by 6 months !!!

Again No sorry and the young guy took 1.80 off the bill …

So so disappointed with how that was handled and hidden away from the boss … as the bottle was left on the table but the bottle top was taken and put in the bin very quickly

This really ruined the whole meal for us as we was then doubting the food and the prawns not being cooked in the prawn cocktail (which looked raw to me), was the chicken cooked ?

Also the website stated all staff wear face masks … not the case and staff where shaking customers hands and no sign of hand washing or sanitizer used !!!

I am sorry to bring this up as like I said we have been a long time customer but sadly after that we will have to look for...

Sharing my nightmarish experience at this restaurant which I visited last night with my family and friends after making a table reservation earlier in the day.My son was served a mango juice in a glass bottle which had a crack and upon bringing this to the notice of the restaurant management they reluctantly exchanged it. Upon placing an order for the main course we were appalled when the owner of the restaurant told us each person had to order a set meal worth 13 pound each and this included my our kids who were under 8 years old.He moaned about how he had to cover restaurant costs such as rent,pay salaries etc,, Never before did we encounter such an ordeal which left a sour taste in our mouth.The portions of food served at the restaurant were tiny and the food tasted bland.Would give them 0 stars if I could.Needless to say never visiting this place again and would never recommend it to my...
