Description

Nestled along the picturesque Thames River, River Spice Reading presents a range of dining experiences that leave patrons divided. While some diners rave about the delicious food and stunning views, others lament the uninspired flavors and inconsistent service. Complaints range from unappetizingly spicy curries to cold, dry dishes, contributing to a sense of disappointment. Though the ambiance is charming and the prices reasonable, unfriendly staff and slow service overshadow the dining experience for many. Despite its potential, River Spice needs to prioritize customer service and quality to truly shine in Reading's vibrant culinary scene.

I dined at an excellent Indian restaurant located by the Thames where the staff went above and beyond to ensure that my meal was completely gluten-free, even going as far as using fresh oil and pan.

The food at this restaurant is incredibly tasty and the spices are perfectly balanced. Although the service was a bit slow, the staff is very responsive when you need refills or menus.

The food was delicious. The owner was accommodating, but some of the servers were not fully knowledgeable about the menu. Overall, it was a good experience and I would definitely dine here again.

This is a charming restaurant with delicious food located along the Thames River. Situated near Caversham Bridge in Reading, UK, there are plenty of dining options on either side of the river.

Nice food and location, but be prepared for unfriendly service, been here a few times and been made to not feel welcomed each time, an exception to the younger waiter he has always greeted us with a smile. The food is good…: We have been told the restaurant opens at 5:30. I think some feed back for the restaurant, your customers only go by what is on your website and advertised so please update…. Also you have a great restaurant, customer service isn’t just bringing food it’s welcoming and showing off all you have to offer, which is a lot. River spice has soo much potential unfortunately talking to other people who have been there they would not return due to the customer service.
