The staff are fantastic, the service is great, the restaurant is spotless and the overall…read moreexperience is lovely. However the food was a bit of a let down: I've never tasted such sweet, luridly coloured food in my life, and that's coming from someone who currently lives in America! The Hublet and I were over from the USA and visting my family. Do bear in mind that my Mum's side of the family are Eurasion - my Nana is Burmese and my Mum was born in Assam - therefore spicy food has been a companion from infancy. Having spent the day bimbling around the South coast, we were exhausted and car crazy but hungry. We debated driving a little further into either Buckingham or Milton Keynes to eat at somewhere tried and tested, however the group voted to find somewhere closer in Brackley. Chilli & Pepper was the first Indian restaurant we saw and therefore it won. Two of our party had the Set Meal B (for 2 persons) while two of us ordered à la carte. The Set Meal B included: 1x Chicken Chat: very tasty. 1x Sheek Kebab: very tasty. 2x Papadoms: standard and the accompanying dips were great. 1x Chicken Tikka Balti: a lurid pinky-red coloured curry. Overly sweet, no real spice to it and quite bland. 1x Lamb Tikka Massala: again oddly unnaturally coloured and although tasty, was quite bland. 1x Pilau rice: standard 1x Nan: declared to be delicious 1x Sag Aloo: declared to be tasty. Items ordered à la carte: 2x Papadoms: standard but we agreed that the dips were great, including a really nice pickle. 1x Peshwari Nan: this was actually delicious, with honey used to sweeten the bread. 2x Pilau rice: standard but nicely cooked 1x (Chefs Recommendation) Lamb Badam Pasanda: this needs its own line as it was my dish. 1x (House Specialities) Chicken Tikka Massla: so sweet that the America described it to seem as if he was eating crushed Fruit Loop cereal. Chefs recommendation Lamb Badam Pasanda. Cooked with yoghurt, herbs and a nutty, creamy sauce. This dish was really sweet and was an unnatural pinky red colour, like so many of the other dishes. Also, bizarrely, there was a fat happy little maraschino cherry in my curry, which seems to be a cheat way to add a 'nutty' amaretto flavour to food instead of using ground almonds. Forgive me if I've been away from the UK so long that I've fallen behind on restaurant customs and cherries have become a Indian restaurant staple, but I've never, ever found a cherry in any 'nutty' curry before, and I'm a huge Korma fan. I cannot fault the staff as the service was outstanding, friendly and prompt. However, the food seemed bland, overly sweet and unnaturally coloured. We all felt that it seemed to be Indian food that had been simplified for non-Indian palates. Once again, I cannot fault the staff as they were wonderful, the restaurant was very nice to dine in, with soft lighting, nice decorations and comfortable seating, however this will not my first choice for a curry when I'm next on this side of The Pond.

Our favourite Indian restaurant in the Wiltshire area. They are always very friendly and you can…read moreorder ahead online to pick up at a time that suits you, which is great. We've tried various curries and sides from here, including the korma, butter chicken, rogan, jalfrazi, biryani, veggie curry, sag aloo, and a few different naans. No complaints about any of the flavours with these curries! Their peshwari naan is packed with coconut and sultanas and goes really well with the more mild curries. They usually give us extra papadoms when we order them too. For takeaway, I'd recommend booking online if you want to eat early as they are often very busy at opening. We will continuing being regulars here!

A cold, wet, windy October night I was on the hunt of something warm, filling and tasty to eat…read more Enter stage left the Tale of Spice. And old pub converted into this fabulous Indian restaurant and takeaway. A full car park which is always a good sign, diners packed into the dining room noshing away at bowls of golden curry, fluffy rice and fresh crisp naan breads. There where four of us and we had booked because quite honestly you have to. I'd be very surprised if you got a table if you'd just walked in off the street. Again another very good sign. We where greeted by a friendly member of staff and shown to our table. Drinks orders where taken and poppadoms brought to the table. The pickles that accompanied the poppadoms where delicious. Not too sure if they where made in house or not I'm guessing not, but either way they tasted good. We did have starters and with quite an extensive collection there is a lot to choose from. I had the king prawn butterfly. A deliciously perfectly cooked king prawn fried in golden breadcrumbs and served with a small side salad. For the curry then, I had a lamb rogan josh. Quite a mild dish with only a little spice added. To accompany that I had a keema rice and a couple of chapattis. The rice dish is enough for two to share as the curry itself is quite filling. But it was a lovely accompaniment. Not too overpowering with the spiced meat and not too overloaded with onion they got the balance just right. The rogan josh was delightful. It's the first time I've had it and I was impressed. Delicately flavoured and packed with tomato and onion. The sauce was really tasty there just wasn't enough of it to dip the bread in. The meat itself was nice a little tough for my liking but still very nice. The chapattis where beautifully cooked, fresh and hot strait out of the tandoor they where perfect. Not too small you think what's the point. And not too bit you think what am I going to do with this? The meal was finished off nicely with complimentary liquors. We decided not to go for dessert because we'd had such a good meal there was no more room. The service in this restaurant is very good. The staff are friendly, polite and helpful. They are only to happy to recommend a dish to you especially if you a first time curry eater. The restaurant itself is very contemporary, spacious and inviting. I'd highly recommend this place to any curry lover or someone who wants to go to a curry house for the first time. I shall definitely be going back in the not to distant future.
