Was Anonym at Spiced Barna a mag?

Had take away yesterday evening. Wow!! Flavours, textures, depth of spicing, quality and generous portions, and finally, value. Probably the best Indian meal i've had in Ireland. Mughlai chicken, simply brilliant. Chicken Dansak my wife raving about it. Sides, poppadums, bhajee, all lovely, particularly the peshwari naan and mint yogurt (fab). out of Ordered online ready on time. Staff really pleasant. Highly recomme... View all feedback.

What Anonym dislikes about Spiced Barna:

I was disappointed with my chicken Tikka masala as it looked and tasted like my wife's butter chicken which she loved. Chicken was tender and lots of it. Garlic Naan bread was thick and tasty and rice was good too. Atmosphere looked good but we only had the takeaways. Price was reasonable so a pity it didn't taste like chicken Tikka masala to me. Other reviews were good so perhaps just my taste. View all feedback.

Highly recommended, the food is absolutely delicious. I happened to be there by chance because I was standing in the supermarket parking lot and it smelled so good. Absolutely recommend it!

Food was okay, but some dishes very hit or miss.

Barna Spice never disappoints! I’ve been here a few times now and each visit is just as welcoming as the last. The staff are warm, friendly, and love a good chat—true Irish-Indian hospitality! The food is always fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious.

Just had dinner with my good friends and what can I say? Great service and incredibly good authentic food. The Korma (southern) was amazing with the most fantastic Nan bread. Nice ambiance and great service. Highly recommended

Casual dining, but the quality of the food exceeded my expectations. It’s the best Indian cuisine we’ve had in Ireland in years, and the prices are very reasonable. The service was excellent, though the restaurant was quite empty on a Monday night in November. A true gem.

Delicious food and excellent service. I stayed in Barna for a few nights and this place was a wonderful discovery. They offer a great variety of dishes, and the Tandoori was absolutely fantastic.

This is the best Indian food I've ever had in the west of Ireland! I finally found an Indian restaurant that I’m excited to return to. The service was delightful, though a bit inconsistent, but that just made the wait more enjoyable. Once we placed our order, the food came out quickly, and every bite was absolutely delicious. The best part is that we get to look forward to it again tomorrow, especially since the portions are so generous and the naan bread truly lives up to the praise from other reviewers!

I love it when the spicy food is actually spicy. Not sure where the Asian Fusion aspect fits, but this is a large Indian restaurant with a little wider menu than most.

5 stars for this place. Food is Fab, the place is beautiful and warm and very welcoming. The staff is very helpful and polite. Will definitely return.

This place is by far the best Indian in the city, in the city center we prefer to drive there as the food is amazing, the staff is brilliant and overall it is always a beautiful evening and dinner. Recommended the small ride
