Spice Mantra

We ordered curry from this restaurant last night, and it was absolutely fantastic. The flavors were rich and authentic, clearly made with fresh ingredients and care. Each bite had the perfect balance of spices—aromatic without being overpowering—and the freshness really stood out. It felt like a true taste of traditional curry. We’ll definitely be ordering again soon. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine, flavorful Indian cuisine!

The food items were very good however ac was not working.

I stumbled across this restaurant while randomly searching for ‘chicken lollipop’—what a lucky find! I was thrilled to see Kerala dishes on the menu and decided to order delivery. To my surprise, it turned out to be the best Indian food we’ve had since moving to Cheltenham (we have tried all the popular restaurants). The flavours are authentic, the ingredients fresh, and it truly tastes almost homemade. We’ll definitely be ordering again and again!

I had lunch at Spice Mantra today, and it was an excellent experience! The ambience was warm and inviting, and the staff was incredibly attentive and friendly. I started with the Chilli Paneer and Mantra Special Chicken, both of which were outstanding. For the mains, I had the Lamb Biryani, Butter Chicken Masala with Garlic & Coriander Naan. The food was absolutely delicious, bursting with authentic Indian flavors, it was refreshing to enjoy such tasty Indian cuisine. A big thank you to the team for a memorable meal—I'll definitely be visiting again!

Finding genuine Indian, especially Kerala cuisine, in Gloucester is no easy task — but this restaurant is a hidden gem! The flavors were absolutely spot on, just like how we get back home. Every bite transported us to the kitchens of Kerala — rich, aromatic, and full of soul.
