The curry is increasingly becoming one of the finer culinary delights to entertain the palate. The Spice of India is no exception. Situated in the heart of Bristol, it is simple and quaint and boasts a long list of clients who are eager to come back for more.
The menu is extensive yet doesn't overwhelm. Ever tried curried fish? Not the regular prawns or shrimp as is so widely available, but fabulous curried salmon served alongside homemade chutney made from unique Bangladeshi fruit. Of course there are the usual lamb and chicken dishes if fish isn't for you. And, following a spicy dinner, a sorbet or something cool is excellent to cleanse the palate.
All this is on offer at a very reasonable price. One thing is for sure, the Spice of India will definitely leave you salivating for more.

Quiet Wednesday night so service was prompt and attentive. Surrondings a bit tatty but food more than made up for tis. Curry was plentiful and full of taste. Breads were very good too - not the doughy, greasy concoction often churned out. For Bristol City Centre a very good standard as I've had a few poor efforts in other nearby establishments. Decent price too. plus bonus entertainment as one of the group of drunk Irish vsitors was apprehended as the group tried a runner and he was forced to pay the full bill - well handled and good fun to watch.

The food was served extremely rapidly and came piping hot. The ambience was decent if a bit stereotypical. My only critisicm would be the portions of the curry dishes which were not exceptionally big. Still, a good, solid and not too pricey Indian restaurant in a cental location.

This restaurant has a central Bristol location, but does not charge central Bristol prices!
The food prepared is delicious and the waiter service is always welcoming and friendly.
The menu has lots to chose from. The heat description of the dishes are accurate. The chef is also happy to prepare dishes which are not on the menu.
In my experience, the restaurant makes a great place to have dinner after work or for a Saturday night meal, before drinks on the waterfront.
As well as the excellent food, I would recommend the selection of Indian largers, especially the Bangla beer!
