Some confusion with who ordered which (is this lamb jalfrazi or lamb tikka bhuna etc) and we were asked to leave while one of our party was using the bathroom. But other than that, excellent service. Food delicious as always!

Great location and very affordable for some top-notch Indian food. May seem like just a standard curryhouse, but after visiting I can see why the restaurant has won so many awards

A beacon for great food. I am a local, so finding a dependable curryhouse is important whenever I am craving some Indian food. Thankfully, City Spice always hits the spot for me and my friends.
