    <comment>Have been to this indian three times in total and cannot fault it in the slightest.. Food has been consistently good. the mixed starter and bhuna especially and it really is unreal value for money.. Lovely decor, good service (can be a llittle slow sometimes) and gorgeous food. Really generous with the glasses of wine also. Love the poppadoms at the start of the meal.. Any night I have been there they have been rushing out the takeaway orders also.. Im not a huge fan of spicy food but I fond this indian has something for everyone.. Well worth a trip.. be hungry!!</comment>

    <comment>Got a takeaway from here last week. I had the lamb balti and naan bread with pilau rice. It took some time to get ready but was extremely tasty. I would say it was one of the nicest curries that i have had. The reataurant was busy. i will visit here to eat in the restaurant somethime too. Recommended.</comment>

    <comment>Royal Spice is very good value for money in a great location in Kilkenny. The staff were very helpful and friendly but there are some glitches that need to be ironed out. Has potential.</comment>

    <comment>6 of us ate here in December and I am very much looking forward to returning with one of couples tonight.
The staff were very polite and attentive. The food is really tasty with perfectly sized portions- not too much, not too little. 
We selected a wide range of mild and spicy mains and split 3 starters (the little taster plates are great)
I hope the restaurant does really well. I for one am telling all my friends to try it!</comment>

    <comment>Visited Royal Spice last night with three friends.  We all ordered various things off the menu, some like mild food whereas I prefer a spciy version.  we all really enjoyed the food, the King Prawn Puri starter was the exact same as I used to have in my local indian when I lived in London - really enjoyed it.  They don't do an early bird menu but it was good value. We paid 25 per head for starter, main, 1 alcoholic drink each and a coffee each inc tip.  the staff were frindly and there was a nice atmoshepre in the place - lovely decor.  we'll be back and they also do take-away</comment>

    <comment>Went out for dinner here on saturday evening. The restaurant is new and is modern in design. We were lucky we booked as the restaurant was very busy. When we arrived we were seated quickly and were given poppadoms and dips which were freshly cooked and very tasty.We both had the mixed starter for two which was a selection of other starters that were on the menu. It was delicious. I had chicken balti for main and the chicken was very tender with a fruity spicy sauce, it was one of the best baltis i've had. My girlfriend had the tandoori king prawns which she said were delicious. We shared a portion of naan bread and rice. One downside to the meal was the restaurant had no desert menu at all but there coffee was very nice. We will be visiting again in the next few weeks.</comment>
