One of the most unique dishes was the Horin-Er-Mangsho, a loin of local venison flame-grilled to medium rare and served with tamarind sauce on the side. The venison was super juicy, meaty, and flavorful, making for a delicious starter. For my main, I got the Kolkata Thali, described on the menu as "South East Indian Tapas." This metal platter came with a sampling of different vegetarian dishes including breaded paneer, aloo tikki (spiced mashed potato patty), stir-fried okra, shredded potatoes, dal (mixed lentils), chickpeas in tomato sauce, eggplant in tomato sauce, raita, rice, and plain naan. My favorite was the aloo tikki, which was nicely spiced--in general, however, most of the dishes on the thali were all toned down in spices to fit a more Anglo-Indian flavor palate. So while this wasn't the most authentic Indian food I've tried, the restaurant still made for nice trendy dining experience.

It was busy for a Tuesday night. It was cosy warm inside too in contrast to a bitterly cold, dank evening outside. The welcome was friendly and the staff were thoroughly delightful and attentive throughout our stay. I opted for prawn puri with delicious puri breads. The portion of prawns was decent and the curry was only alright. 2 stars. The 5 star breads (see photos) were dainty, made from wholewheat, and not at all oily. The six served up were a first for me and probably equate to what is usually served - one piece-plate sized and usually oily bread. The menu didn't offer king prawn puri. I suppose I just should have asked. Another of our party got the lamb seekh kebab and liked it - it was a good portion. I had the muttar paneer (no artificial colour no sugar) main with peshwari nan 3 and 4 star respectively. So my sugar kick came from the peshwari nan. Both good tasting especially the cheese but the main portions were a bit smaller than I get in the places I usually frequent in Glengormley and Belfast. I also had pilau rice and disliked it very much as it didn't taste good to me. The others got fried rice with bits of vegetables in that seemed better. My rice was basmati for sure and perfectly cooked but nothing like I've had before over 40 years. It may well be popular in Lisburn but I wouldn't order it again and I just can't put my finger on why not. One of the party got korma the other a chicken tikka masala and both were over adulterated with sugar but the artificial red and yellow colours in them are a real turn off for me. Just to go off on a tangent - M&S sell a tikka masala with no artificial food colour added for £5. It serves two. They call it best ever. I add two teaspoons of brown sugar and two tablespoons of double cream to it when it's cooked and it knocks the socks of most Indian takeaways at a quarter of the price. So back to Spice: it was high end pricing for sit in so 3 star value for money. With these prices the food should be faultless, free from artificial colour and a good portion of meat to sauce. So it's a good 3 star on food/portion size against cost. With ever rising prices and inflation all round, price point will likely make the difference to survival for many places this year and quality will count. If it was just on friendly service and comfort it would be 5 star. I had hoped it would be better as it's closer to home for us but I'm afraid it's still Glengormley first (Indian Ocean) and Belfast second (Bengal Brasserie).

The staff are friendly and helpful, and endeavour to do everything they can to ensure that you are comfortable and well looked after during your sitting. If there are any questions about the menu or any special requirements you have, they are only too happy to assist. The menu is plentiful and contains every dish you would expect from an Indian restaurant. Usually when I eat here, I would have the Chicken Tikka Masala with pilau rice and garlic naan, and consistently every time, the food has been delicious. Spice Lisburn has a sister restaurant in Templepatrick, and while I feel that the restaurant is Lisburn does not meet the exceptional standards of their sister restaurant, they still make for a fantastic dining experience and I would highly recommend it.

Not a mild hangover, and not a can't-even-get-out-of-bed hangover, a mid range one. On such days, only a chicken korma (what? I didn't say a hot curry) and a big pillowy naan bread can help. Planet Spice is take away only and joy of joys, do deliveries so it's my go-to place for Indian food. Actually, it's my order-from place. Delivery can take up to 45 minutes to an hour so it's important to time your order right but once you get it you won't be disappointed. The korma is perfect - creamy but not gloopy and with plenty of big chunks of chicken. The naan bread is to die for - big and fluffy and soooo good. Throw in a couple of onion bhajees which have just the right amount of spicy greasiness and I'm in hangover heaven.

It is also a very good restaurant though. Whilst I haven't availed myself of the ridiculously cheap 'Tuesday Banquet' deals - £10 for four courses, rice and naan - I have dined in on other evenings and was very impressed with the laid-back atmosphere, the great service and the unbeatable spicy jalfrezi. It would seem they have a few teething problems, though. A shopfitting company came along yesterday, between services, and removed their front door. They then boarded up the doorway and left a note saying that their door would been refitted once they'd finally paid for it. Ouch! I only know this because I was thinking of picking up a madras for my dinner... But it was all systems go a short while afterwards.

Having a quiet one in doing work I fancied something a little interesting after watching one of the wrinkle faced Ramsey shows on Channel Four. So I thought, why not. The menu is extensive and brings an interesting derivation from the usual rigmarole, the Massalas, Bhunas and Jalfrezi. This little Malone based restaurant brings a different flavour entirely. I ordered a duck dish, spiced with tamarind and a raft of atypical spices, not too hot though, served with pilau rice. I also opted for a peshwari nann, why not. The order arrived promptly, hot and as ordered. They also included a tart onion salsa and mango chutney.... it's looking good so far. The food was exceptional. Well cooked, tender duck breast with seared fat on top. Rich, fruity and well flavoured (if a little bit under-seasoned) it went fantastically well with the sharp onion and sugary sweetness from the chutney. A really interesting departure from the usual, superb food, cooked very competently with flair and character. Heartily recommended.

Having tried the excellent 'La Tasca' last week (see review) we set off in search of bigger and…read morebetter food horizons and having heard some very good things about the Indian Ocean we were drawn toward to restaurant for an relaxing evening meal. First impressions? 5 star! We walked in the door, were greeted by enticing aromas wafting from the kitchen and were seated in the busy but not bunged restaurant. For some reason the waiter tried to place us in some corner seat near the entrance away from the rest of the diners, which isn't really my scene (I prefer being closer to the action) but once we were appropriately seated we found ourselves browsing through an appetising range of meals. We ordered a shandy and a pint (Tennents Ice Cold) to wet our mouths whilst deciding...well, I can admit, I've drank a pint or two in my time, and I can honestly say I've never tasted anything like this before (and not in a good way!) it just didn't even look right, a dark ale-ish looking colour which smelt like some sort of acidic nastiness and tasted like a bitter excuse for beer. Not a good start!! The waiter said it was because it was a new keg, but who knows! However, two fresh (bottled) beers later we were ready and eager to order. Sadly, the monkfish was off the menu (wish they could have told us before we decided, it would have saved a lot of hassle seeing as it was my boyfriends top three choices ...) In the end we decided on the crab claws and house tandoori mix to start, the highly recommended king prawn special and a chicken korma for mains alongside a plain naan, a mushroom rice and a garlic naan. All in all the food didn't fail to impress, especially the crab claws which were deliciously juicy and tender, the prawns, which *drool* were simply beautiful, they even looked the part and that's hard to do with prawns (see pics). It was a pity about the monkfish but the server said it wasn't good enough quality so fair play I guess, que c'era, another time. The breads were fresh, moist and well cooked (I'm fussy about naan so you know it's good!) and the rice was particularly nice as well. The service wasn't spectacular though it wasn't unpleasant. I'd say I'd like to either come back here, or try one of the other branches to test out the different qualities / experiences in each, but as far as the Odyssey goes it wasn't bad. I'm not raving about it but I LOVE Indian cuisine so as far as I'm concerned if you're going to do it, do it right! It's handy if you're about the complex, but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here.
