    Tale of spice - The restaurant from where we sat

    Tale of spice

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.

    We dined here twice over a week. It was recommended to us by one of the staff in the hotel we were…read morein. We were staying in the nearby Gloucester Robinswood hotel (reviewed separately). It's apparently a signature hotel, though dear knows why as the evening food there is dire, it's mismanaged and staffing levels are low. On our first visit we hadn't booked and despite being fully booked the deal was 'give us back the table at 7pm' and that gave us an hour. We started with poppadoms. I asked if they had the black pepper ones - most of the Indian restaurants we go to no longer offer them - and it was no problem. I prefer them for two reasons, first they aren't fried rather they are dry cooked over flame, and second they are peppery spiced. The portion of dips was tasty too. I got a lamb curry and the portion was generous, it was moderately spiced tender meat and very tasty indeed. My wife got tikka chicken pieces with a thick korma sauce and we shared a Peshwari nan and a pilau rice. The nan was the only disappointment as I like plenty of filling but the place is undoubtedly 5 star. The staff, likely Bangladeshi, are friendly chaps and they sure are kept busy as the restaurant was full on a Thursday evening. Pint of beer and a glass of rosé wine came in about £8 for the two. Second time, we booked. It was a Tuesday and it was still busy. We just had mains: a chicken and a vegetable biryani with a vegetable curry and a korma with a Peshwari nan. The biryani's were deliciously spiced and again generous portions. Again a pint of beer and a rosé wine. The only real downside is that parking nearby can be difficult. What a pity we don't have anything near this good at home. Polash in Hindi: Ocean; Name of a King; Leaf.

The staff here are really friendly and will make you feel welcome. I recently came in for take away and heard almost every customer who came in referred to by their first name. As a visitor from the US, I found the prices here excellent and very reasonable. We ordered an array of different dishes including; Aloo Gobi, Tandoori Chicken and Chicken Kadai, all of which were excellent. Even the Naan bread and simple rice pilaf were fresh, tasty and above average. Thoroughly enjoyed by dinner from Polash, the great prices and the friendly staff.
