Indian restaurant in Reading

“WOW! That is what you get when you search for the best restaurant in Wokingham! Fabulous venue, the most attentive and well dressed staff all topped off with a fantastic vegan smorgasbord of Indian delights. Cannot recommend highly enough, you will not be disappointed.”

“As a fan of Indian food we thought we would try the new Chili's and we were definitely impressed. The menu being regional to Southern India means it is not what you see in your typical curry house, but the waiter here was amazing, helping guide our choices and tuning dishes to our taste. If I could I would rate them 6 stars”

“Place doesn’t look like much for dining in but you absolutely should! Food was amazing and authentic. Definitely coming back!”

“Excellent Quality Food and Outstanding Service I had a truly wonderful experience and can confidently say that both the food quality and service were exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted warmly by the staff, who were polite, attentive, and genuinely eager to make the experience enjoyable. The food was outstanding—fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavour. Every dish was clearly made using high-quality ingredients, and the presentation was impressive. Portions were generous without being overwhelming, and the balance of flavours showed real care and skill in the cooking. You can tell that attention to detail is a priority here. What really stood out was the consistency. Everything arrived on time, hot, and exactly as described. Any special requests were handled professionally and without hesitation, which made the experience even better. The service deserves special praise. Staff were knowledgeable, patient, and always available without being intrusive. They checked in at the right moments and made sure everything was to our satisfaction. This level of customer care really sets the place apart. The overall atmosphere was clean, welcoming, and comfortable, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal—whether dining in with family, friends, or visiting for a casual meal. Overall, this is a place that delivers on quality, service, and value. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food and a pleasant dining experience. I will definitely be returning and recommending it to others”

“My local curry restaurant. I highly recommend that you try this place if you like curry and you live in the reading area. Quite possibly the only reason to come to burghfield unless you live here or you've got lost looking for somewhere else. The onion bhajis are excellent to start. The mixed grill main course is a family favourite and I'm slowly working my way through their other dishes - so far, all good. The staff are friendly and the service is excellent.”

“A place to enjoy excellent Indian cuisine, with flavours unlike any other curry house in or around Reading. Dishes we opted for included Nilgri lamb chops, tandoori mixed grill and Bengal Bream - all were excellent, and went down well with a pint of Cobra beer! Coupled with a relaxed atmosphere & great service...makes for a thoroughly enjoyable evening out at a lovely setting in Pangbourne.”

“Absolutely amazing place and people! Every single staff member is so lovely and kind they always have the customer in mind. My other half has collected a couple of takeaways before hand but today I saw the restaurant they have - it’s beautiful! The food is second to none. I genuinely have never tasted Indian food like it in the UK! Will be a regular customer from now on.”

“We ordered the vegetarian meal for two and were really pleased with the food and service (delivery within half an hour)! The samosas were really tasty, the masala dosas were great, couldn’t believe how crispy they had remained after transportation and the sambar was delicious!! Would highly recommend and will definitely be ordering again soon!”

“At Monsoon this evening, the team truly redefined what service means in a dining experience. It’s rare these days to find such a genuine sense of hospitality, and it was quite refreshing. The staff worked seamlessly together, creating an inviting atmosphere where you could tell they genuinely cared about making every guest feel special. Abu, who looked after us throughout the night, made us feel like more than just customers—by the end of the evening, he felt like a friend. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the menu were impressive, and his recommendations were spot on. You could see how much pride he took in presenting the dishes, a sign of a restaurant that truly values its own food and its customers too. The food arrived quickly, hot and delicious, reflecting the precision and coordination of a well-oiled team. The quality of the dishes was exceptional, making it clear that this is a place worth returning to. It’s been one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in quite some time, and we’ll definitely be back.”

“Really tasty food. Opened recently and very worth trying for yourselves. Nice hit of spice and warmth of pleasant heat. Polished down with a mango lotti smoothie. Delicious.”

“A gem of a place! Beautiful, little cosy restaurant with lovely food and lovely staff. We ordered Nepalese Chicken curry, Fulka Rotis, Chilli Momos and Saag Palak. The food was yum. Everything was very fresh and tasted authentic. We also tried their Gurkha Beer, which was surprisingly smooth and light. The chilli momos could have been a bit more spicy though, but still good. The staff were very warm and welcoming. We had a delightful experience. Definitely recommend.”

“I had an amazing experience at SKVP Reading. The food was absolutely outstanding — full of flavour, fresh, and truly authentic Indian street food. The service was excellent as well. A special mention to Mandeep Kaur, who attended me with so much humility and kindness. She was very polite, helpful, and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommended! Will definitely visit again.”

“We came for the Sunday buffet. The food was very fresh and the service was excellent. Really great value for money. The range of food available in the buffet was great and everything was fresh and hot. I will 100% be coming back again soon.”

“Soooo happy I found this place today. I was missing Kerala food and this hit the spot. We had the masala dosa, the masala Vada and gobi Manchurian with tea and fresh juice. Yummy fermented goodness. My soul is happy.”

“Although I can’t vouch for the authenticity, I can for the quality of food, the flavours and value for money! Until I ate here, I had no clue about Tamil cuisine. I love different versions of gobi Manchurian and this one did not disappoint. Came out fast, great texture and a wonderfully fiery sauce. I love variety so ordered the Madras Thali. Roti & appalam (papad), lassi and a great selection of veggie dishes and rice pilau, then a nice dessert. Everything was full-flavoured and well executed with good spice levels right up my alley. First time with Poriyal with an unknown veggie with a texture like pumpkin but looked like brinjal or plantain. Really loved what I would call a kind of mushroom pakora, nice touch. Not expensive, lovely lady server. Tried to engage with management to ask more about this cuisine, but they seemed distracted elsewhere. I love that it opens at 10am for an early lunch. I’d love to come back and try the dosas.”

“Order some food here as have been having trouble finding a decent curry take away. Ordered a chicken tikka biryani and a lamb tikka starter. Food was piping hot, plentiful and delicious. Staff were also very pleasant. The ordering from their website was painless so no need to use the food courier people that don't care if it's cold or not. Will deffo be back”

“I cannot recommend Biryani Boyzz enough! The food was absolutely amazing full of flavour and perfectly cooked. We were even given more food than expected, on the house, which was such a generous touch. From start to finish, everything was flawless. Communication was excellent, and they even allowed us to sample the food beforehand, which really showed how much they care about their customers. Faisal and Ibrahim were incredibly accommodating, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Their customer service is truly 10/10. Not only was the catering top quality, but the pricing was also very reasonable for the standard provided. Honestly, they are probably the best Asian caterers in Reading. I’ll definitely be using Biryani Boyzz again for future events and will be recommending them to everyone. Thank you for making everything perfect!”

“Every time we get curry from here it tastes fresh and flavoursome. The chef's specials are different from the usual and are really tasty. The curry house is always very clean, hence its recent award for cleanliness and hygiene.”

“Uddin was very friendly and efficient, have used them for years and always stayed the same great delivery service. Regulars weekly same order”

“The variety was impressive. There was a dedicated section for sushi and sashimi that was constantly restocked, and the seafood on ice—including shrimp, crab legs, and oysters—was very fresh. The carving station was a highlight, with a perfectly cooked roast beef and a delicious herb-crusted ham. The hot food section had a great international selection. The Chinese-style honey walnut shrimp was a crowd-pleaser, and the Italian pasta station allowed you to customize your dish. I also appreciated the live cooking counters where chefs prepared noodles and teppanyaki right in front of you.”

“Great food as always, been here a few times when visiting friends, that live locally. Staff were friendly, and the service is excellent. My time of visit was a Friday evening.”

“Went with a group of 11. Inc one celiac and Veggie. 3 had starters and most had several drinks plus main course. Worked out just over £30 per head. Pleasant friendly staff who looked after us well. Would definitely use again/ recommend. Parking can be hit or miss but that's not their fault.”

“Had a wonderful meal here tonight. Very friendly service and food was excellent. Thank you for the little end drinks too. Really recommend you go here.”

“Had a lovely meal at Spicy Tadka. Decor was beautiful. Food came out very quick and with beautiful flavours. Would come again.”

“Food was amazing and such super friendly service brought my mum here for her birthday and was so good this is my 3rd time back”

“We had the most incredible food! The dishes that we ordered were Beautiful and so full of Flavour! The Chef worked hard on his Menu and you can definitely tell, it is Fantastic! The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable about the food that you are eating. We explained our Intolerance and an Allergy and we were reassured that the dishes that we wanted were safe after checking with the Chef. Photo of Menu and various dishes are below. Thank you so much for such a Lovely meal!!!”

“Having heard that the Indian Kitchen now allows customers to bring their own alcohol into the restaurant I thought I’d visit last night (Sunday) and found they had a buffet night where you choose anything off the menu for a set price. It was excellent! Probably the best keema nan ever! The head chef even came out to ask how the food was! Definitely will be back!”

“Been going to the restaurant for years, different owners and no change between all in the quality of service and food. Love it”

“Amazing, authentic indian foood! Couldn’t recommend more! Staff were very friendly, especially Srinu. We ordered the butter chicken and another dish. Butter chicken and their nan are to die for. If you are in basingstoke, this restaurant is a must.”

“We visited The Spice on 12/9/24 and were a large group. The service was superb. Very welcoming and friendly throughout. We were made to feel valued. The food was exceptional. Everyone one of our group said their dishes were great. Can't fault the place. Would happily return again.”
