    I was really well looked after by the two waiters who went to the trouble of adjusting the dishes to my taste. The food was delicious. I'll definitely go back. This was my second visit in two days.

    Always a pleasure to eat here. Real and super tasty Indian food. The staff is really gentle and fun. It was my second time and I say: it’s a must go in Albufeira.

    Lovely Indian tucked away on the back street of the old town. Made a reservation online and we were welcomed. Service spot on and food was delicious. Exactly what we wanted. Thank you!

    Found this little Indian restaurant whilst searching for gluten free restaurants in Albufeira. So good we visited twice during our weeks holiday. Definite recommendation to all.

    Food was quite nice. A little different to what we’re used to but that’s ok. None of the dishes tasted like chilli chicken or chicken Balti but we’re still enjoyable. Also no mango chutney with popadoms. Mixed starter was nice. Naan breads were nice and thin

    5.5/10

    Service and staff were great. Unfortunately main dishes were not , madras which is supposed to be a tomato based curry and very spice came out extremely mild with a awful taste of coconut, jalfrezi was more of a smokey flavour which wasn’t too appetising either. I had high hopes for this restaurant as reviews given are amazing but definitely not close to a 10 star review

    Friendly staff and nice restaurant. Could have done with a little background music perhaps m. Starters had flavour but a few were a little dry (pakora). Mains all good except pasanda which tasted mostly of yogurt with no flavour. The mixed grill was very good though.

    We enjoyed a meal at Spice Lounge on New Years eve. The food and service were excellent and they coped well with being exceptionally busy.

    Nice starter, main course for myself and partner bland. Chicken tikka masala normally sweet taste.

    Had a 30min wait between starter and main, but was a busy Friday night, but food worth the wait, Lamb Khari and Prawn Passanda were probably the best we have had. Excellent.

    2/10

    The food was very much below what I expected according to other customer reviews, I just wonder who writes them. The most alarming was when I showed the very miserable waiter the chicken bone that was in my grandsons chicken nugget which nearly broke his tooth, to which he replied and I quote “ oh we buy them from the supermarket” and that was the end of that. The dips for the popadoms where disgusting to say the least, plain naan bread burnt on one side (although the garlic and chilli naan were really nice). Chicken tykka masala was like nothing I have ever tasted before in England nor abroad. The air con was leaking and was full of black gunge. We were left for 30 minutes before the waiter felt the need to clear out table even tho we tried on numerous occasions to attract his attention in the not so busy restaurant. All in all it was a very disappointing all round experience, sad really as it was supposed to be a family celebration and we left to end up in Pizza Hut.

    Had a very nice meal but did feel the starters arrived very fast which I pusumed had been pre cooked as resturant had just opened . Other than that it's ok.

    The food from this place is faultless. One of the best Indians I've had abroad and the cheese nan is out of this world! Very pleasant service and overall 10/10 experience.
