Britannia Spice: Reviews & Ratings
Great food and great service, bit quiet but it was a Sunday night and to be expected.
This was a delightful surprise! The food was excellent with good portion sizes. It was so good, we ate there 3 times during our stay in Leith. The atmosphere is inviting and clean and the service is prompt and welcoming. Highly recommended!
Can't believe this hasn't got more stars in the reviews, The 3 off us that went all had starters and a main each, we had Nan bread and the 2 dishes of rice was enough for the 3 of us. The chicken in the dishes we had in the mains was very tender and was like it was done in a slow cooker was so easy to cut. The food quality was outstanding and left the 3 of us absolutely stuffed would definitely go back and can 100% recommend
Midweek meal in February with a quiet restaurant and so lacked the usual atmosphere. The restaurant has lovely decor although toilets do need upgrade. OK not the biggest portion sizes for the price with small portion starters and main course consisted of mainly peppers and onions with a total of 6 pieces of chicken, It was however the tastiest jalfrezi I have had in a long time and almost licked my plate clean. Quality over quantity was reason enough to return for a second night and will happily return on our next visit.
We had a lovely family evening here and the quality of the food was outstanding. I hadn't been for about 20 years but it was just as good as I remembered it. Don't be put off by the somewhat tired exterior as the inside remains convivial and the service was extremely friendly. I would highly recommend and will definitely not be leaving it 20 years until I return the next time!
Eat this restaurant a second time, and it is really good food !! The owner is help and nice man! It is not expensive and there is lots of room for family dinner! Or friends for a couple of beers and food! Definitely recommend it, and I will definitely be back!
Great food, great staff, but very quiet on a wet Sunday night.
Great food. Great service. Perfect end to our family trip in Scotland.
