Rice n'Spice in Recklinghausen

We ate there today with our voucher book and were thrilled. As soon as you enter the restaurant you are warmly welcomed. The Indian hospitality is simply great, you immediately feel at home. From the tomato soup with garlic naan as a starter to the mango chicken and butter chicken as the main courses, an absolute taste explosion on the palate. You can tell from the first forkful that the cooking here is fresh and with love. We will definitely come back even without a voucher book and can recommend this restaurant 1000%. Thank you for the great taste experience and the warmth.

Service cannot be rated because the order via Uber Eats and the driver were delayed. Food was delicious.

We really enjoyed the food, as well as the mango lassi and the chai tea. We had duck à la chef and we really enjoyed it. Thanks to Schlemmerblock we became aware of this restaurant. Price-wise totally okay. Only the toilets could use some renovation/reworking. The service was very friendly and always had a smile on their faces. We also got more rice. We went home full and happy. Will definitely come back again and try our hand at the menu. Suggestions for improvement: Put salt shakers on the tables, there was only chili and pepper. And on the drinks menu there was no indication of how much drink you get, e.g. Mezzo Mix 0.33l. Overall, a highly recommended restaurant that we would be happy to visit again and recommend to others!

Super tasty and the waiter/owner was also super nice and the food was simply bomb

I waited 1 hour for my food and the food was completely cold. The worker didn't even make a final decision but instead handed the food to me and left very quickly

Food was great and the staff was very nice, definitely again!

The best Indian restaurant I have ever tried in Germany. Authentic Indian and Bangladeshi taste. Highly recommended.

Nice restaurant with a great beer garden. Very friendly staff. Super tasty food, drinks were good, unfortunately no alcohol 😬The service has a lot to do, so the plates are left until the end. Highly recommended. Delivery service also available.

Food was super delicious. We would definitely go again. If it could be cleared away promptly, it would be perfect.

We were there for the first time. After initial difficulties (we were briefly forgotten 🙈), a very friendly waiter came up to us and took our order. The store itself is clean but really shabby. But!!! The food was very tasty. Good portions and interesting and tasty in taste. Wasn't there the last time. 😊👍

Chicken Jalfrezi is a blast. I really enjoyed that!

Delicious. Buffet is served at the table. You can choose from almost all dishes on the menu. Soups, starters, vegetarian dishes, chicken and lamb dishes. Everything is then freshly prepared and brought to the table. You could theoretically eat every dish on the menu. We will definitely come back

Very tasty Halal food. The service team is also very friendly and not intrusive. On sunny days you can also make yourself comfortable on the terrace. Absolutely recommended for a nice evening with family/friends. Parking available directly on the street.

The possibility of receiving a buffet at the table offers many different dishes from the menu to try. My friends and I went there for the first time and the staff was friendly, helpful and even gave tips on how to try as much as possible without quickly losing your appetite. Highly recommended.

The food is very tasty, the guys in service are very friendly. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work for all the food to arrive in a timely manner, but it is all the more delicious for that. However, the beef biryani yesterday was very spicy 😬.

We ate here for the first time today, the owner is super friendly, the atmosphere was nice and the food came very quickly and was super tasty! Highly recommended!! Update: been here for the second time and once again it was incredibly tasty. The Indian Chai tea is highly recommended.

A nice restaurant. Delicious Indian food, friendly staff and not too expensive. (but no alcoholic drinks)

Of the 3 times we ordered there, 2 times arrived over 2.5 hours (!) late. Food was cold, not recommended

Could be a little better looked after. Very nice waiter and delicious food 👍

Very tasty Indian food! Especially the naan bread and the mango lassi

The food was delicious and worth ordering from here. But the service was crazy. He's the only guy and should sort out service, bill, everything... And it usually takes up to 20 minutes for a tea. The ambience was the worst. Inside it totally stinks of dead rate. In summer you can sit outside for a bit, but in winter I can't imagine this restaurant at all. Toilets even worse. You can get all sorts of diseases from going to the toilet!!!

Delicious food and friendly service

It was very tasty, a good selection and we all got our money's worth.

Super delicious Indian dinner! We have ordered online several times and recently also ate there. The decor of the restaurant is rather simple, but still very appropriate and cozy. We have already tried all three levels of spiciness, depending on our preference. Anyone who doesn't like spicy food but would still like to try out Indian cuisine will get their money's worth here just as much as someone who likes spicy food. There was a suitable level of spiciness for everyone. The service is very good and the owner is very friendly! We'd love to come back.

The buffet is varied and very tasty. We feel very comfortable here. The price is okay.

I'm not a fan of Indian at all, but we came across it through the gourmet block and wanted to try it out. I was really pleasantly surprised. The food was even for me. Just really well made and beautifully presented! The service was very friendly. 👌

Very tasty food and very friendly staff!

Very friendly and good service and the food was delicious! There were four of us there and all four dishes were great. Price performance is completely ok. We'll definitely be back!

Very good food, very large selection. We have eaten or ordered there several times and it has always been very good.

Very tasty Indian food, very positive that rice can be reordered as often as you like for free. Reasonable in terms of taste and price. Friendly staff, in some places it took a long time despite the low occupancy, but everything was within limits. Interesting atmosphere!

The food was very tasty and beautifully prepared, the service was excellent. The ambience is a bit intimidating at first, but it's deceptive. Inside, smaller details could certainly add value. But we were very satisfied with the rest, the food and the service, and would be happy to come back.

Both the food and the all you can eat concept are great.

We were there for the first time recently. It's actually not that appealing from the outside, and even when we came in, the furnishings didn't really appeal to us. I think this could be improved a bit. 😊 We were welcomed very nicely. The service is great and also helps you choose the dishes if you are unsure 😊! The food was to die for! Super tasty and a good portion! We'll definitely be back 😊

We come regularly. The food is, consistently, fantastic! No. 43 😍😍😍😍😍 The service is always friendly and accommodating. A big compliment to everyone - especially to the kitchen! Please stay the same 🙏🏼 🥰

We have now ordered for the second time and we were not disappointed. Super tasty and simply recommended, the hosts of the house are always super friendly! Everything is great.

A very nice and courteous service. The food was plentiful and very tasty. Absolutely recommended!

Food was really very good, I can only recommend it. Staff very friendly. The ambience is not that great, maybe it could do with some renovations. I would definitely eat there again.

Today tried first time, it was dal Makhni and batura. Awesome taste, amazing service and cozy environment. Will come again to taste other dishes. Recommended. Thank you.

The food was very tasty and the staff was very friendly. Highly recommended.

The food was delicious and the service was very friendly. It was our first time there and definitely not the last time. It is a restaurant that can be highly recommended.

It was another great evening at Rice n'Spice. Since you can't decide what to eat anyway, the buffet is a very good option. Served at the table, it's not just beautiful to look at - it tastes simply sensational. In addition, you can not only try out different dishes, but also levels of spiciness. A very good idea! Very attentive service! It's definitely worth it and I'll come back!!!

Very tasty food. The buffet version is totally worth it because you can try out everything. Great hosts! Very attentive service.

Very good!!! It was our first time there and it won't be our last time. The food was a 10/10! Service was so sweet and friendly. I can only recommend it to everyone.

The buffet to table idea was simply brilliant! Level of spiciness was also a very good idea. Would happily recommend it!!!

Food was super delicious. Short waiting time and great service ☺️

If you have never tried Indian cuisine, you should give it a try here. There is an option to order dishes as a buffet for a fair price. Then you get smaller portions of a selection from the menu to try. Simply ideal. Everything tasted good and the advice was perfect. The bread alone was wonderful. We'd love to come back.

Update: Visit #3. Highly recommended. The food is very aromatic and fresh. Again, very happy ❤️ Update: Visit #2. The food continues to be very aromatic, tasty and fresh. Service was super nice. This time we decided on the buffet. Very happy with it. Thank you ❤️ The food was very tasty. Very friendly service. A very good feeling after eating. I was full but it wasn't difficult. The chef adapted the dishes due to allergies. I would be happy to do so again ❤️

Were there as a group. We became aware of it through the voucher book. Food really great. Ambience was like this 😃. But the service and the food saved everything. Will eat there again. Thanks

I love the food, really incredibly tasty + fast delivery

Amazing food, best tomato soup ever and very nice people creating the food as well! Also great a la carte buffet options. Thanks again, we'll be back 🙏🏽

I order there every Sunday... it is by far the best Chicken Jalfrezi I have ever eaten in Germany... the curry soup is also simply great! Really my recommendation: Chicken Jalfrezi and curry soup first :)

Super delicious food! If you like exciting food, you should definitely order or stop by here. So far I've only ordered or picked up the order, but eating in the restaurant's cozy outdoor area is definitely still on my to-do list. The prices are absolutely reasonable for the unusual dishes. You can tell that the chef brings a lot of experience and passion to the table. The local people are very friendly. The butter chicken is my favorite, but even the salad with chicken tastes like no other. Even when you order home, it feels like you're eating in a restaurant. Always my pleasure!

Very tasty food, well served and everything was fresh. The service was also great. We'll definitely be back

The food was really tasty, we will definitely be back. It's a shame that this doesn't seem to have gotten through to people yet. I can really only recommend the food here ❤️

Very tasty and authentic food! Super nice and courteous service!

I recently ate there because I was really in the mood for Indian food. I wanted to try out the store and see if it lived up to my expectations and they far exceeded them! The food came super quickly, was absolutely delicious, hot and not too much. The service was very good and the waiter was extremely friendly and attentive. You felt in good hands and comfortable there. I will eat here more often in the future!

A very pleasant and cozy restaurant with excellent Indian "tapas" and a more than courteous, kind-hearted service. Clear underdog in Recklinghausen and a regular stop from now on!

Super tasty fresh food and nice service. You shouldn't be put off by the location at the beginning as the furniture and furnishings are very outdated. The option to choose a buffet was a great idea if you wanted to try out Indian cuisine, so you could eat your way through half the menu 😂and always get small bowls of goodies as often and as much as you wanted!

Super delicious food! It wasn't the first nor the last time I was there :)

I can only recommend it! We were there for the first time today. Went there on a recommendation and are thrilled with the food! So incredibly delicious! Very fresh ingredients, super seasoned and filling portions. The service was very friendly and personable. We had a lovely evening and will definitely come back!

We were there for the first time at the beginning of last week and I have to say, even if the ambience is rather plain and simple, the buffet concept is really well thought out! You receive a warm welcome and everything is explained very well on your first visit! At the buffet you have a large selection of dishes from the menu, which can also be put together on recommendation (if you can't decide), and whether you want spiciness is also asked in advance. As a guest, you don't have to leave your seat once because everything is continually brought to the table. We will definitely come back again.

Ordered from you for the first time and you delivered us a great meal. We will now order more often or stop by your place.

Very tasty food, nice service. We can only recommend it!

We went to rice n spice for the first time today and the food was wonderful!! The store could be designed a little nicer but otherwise everything was great - service and food were great! Vegetarians and vegans also get their money's worth here 😋 I ordered Chana Masala and it was really tasty.

Old shop but top tasty and high quality food. Service very friendly. There are no alcoholic drinks here for ethnic reasons. But you don't need it either.

Very good food, nice service. Everything was great. Only recommended 😊

Very tasty and friendly staff. We will be back definitely

Delicious food, very good quality and nice service. A slightly different buffet. You choose something from the menu and have it brought to your table in smaller portions (you can order it as often as you like). Price-performance ratio is completely okay. We will be back!

The food was really delicious and authentic. Only to be recommended😋

The food was very tasty and the portions were perfect. The service person was very nice and polite, the atmosphere was nice and there was pleasant traditional music. Recommend everyone to try the buffet there with over 60 options, it is one of the largest on table buffets I have seen. Generally very tasty and perfect.

Everything is just great. I can only recommend. 👍

An almost eleven year old says: The tomato soup was delicious as were the fries. I would give it 10 stars. The decor was also nice!!!🤩

We were here by chance today after the Palm Fair. Staff very friendly. The food was very good and tasty. The selection on the garden was also extensive. We'd love to come back.

Very good food with very nice staff. It gave us an India vibe, complete with extended family. We'd love to come back.

Top notch food and great service! Interesting concept with a buffet, which is brought fresh to your table based on your choice of food. Only the rooms could be designed a little nicer (more modern).

Great food and nice service. Gladly again!

Food was great, we waited forever for the food, but it was a wonderfully fun evening. And it was packed, during the week

Delicious food with great hospitality. Love to visit more and more🥰

No greeting, just the words “free choice of seats”. The table was not cleared and cleaned by the customers beforehand. After 15 minutes of skillful ignorance, we left the store.

Easy setup, friendly service, fair prices (buffet €26.99 per person), Very good food, spiciness as desired, would love to come back.

Atmospheric and really tasty. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the products. Cooked by a chef from India. It feels like he enjoys cooking. Every dish is beautifully presented. We were in India and I have to say that the food here is not inferior in taste.

Quite ok, prices okay, food great, unfortunately the service is not orderly and uncoordinated...but friendly!!!

Taste okay. But the portions are really small!!! The price is definitely way too expensive for the small quantity 😕 You could put at least 3 times more on your plate for the price! A reason for us not to come back again. Unless it is changed... The drinks prices are also overpriced. Very unfortunate.

Dishes are very tasteful, service is very good and quick ! My husband loved the butter chicken and I very much enjoyed the lamb Karahi. Would definitely go again and strongly recommend

Excellent Indian food for little money. Handy for on the route

Very tasty buffet. Food is brought to the table. Good concept, something different. We always enjoy coming back.

Food very tasty, very friendly staff, great!

Interesting concept with the buffet at the table. Delicious meals. Respond to special requests. Indian spiciness with the additional option of extra hot is exactly my taste! Large selection of various dishes. Very friendly and attentive staff. Moderate prices. Sanitary facility no longer clean and the motion detector for the lighting there switches the light off too quickly, making it difficult to get out again.

Very tasty food. Great selection of Indian dishes. Various starters and breads. Again and again.

There aren't that many Indian restaurants in our region. This one is therefore particularly worth mentioning. A young team around a young (thank you) boss is worth visiting. Since I have already met a few people across Germany, the stars are mine and not the locally appropriate ones. The ambience appears modern with an Indian feel. Dark furniture, dim lighting, cozy atmosphere. Everything seemed neat and attended to. With the menus, not the flyer for the possible delivery service, we were also informed with nice detailed explanations, for example about the “At the table” buffet. The card is typical. A variety of dishes (modular) and all meat options. Lots of vegetarian food (mostly with Indians) and a pleasingly good selection of fish dishes. Starters, desserts of course, also included. And hold the drinks. I would also like to see a notice outside for this location. In addition, perhaps one to three “Thali”, but your own choice of buffet certainly helps here. Starters and main courses were chosen and ordered. Both came quickly, a little too quickly between the starter and the main course, and precisely. Super tasty and simply presented. Small plate, bowl and you're done. The previously desired level of sharpness was well maintained. My food lacked a little more salt but that is of course personal sense of taste. Regarding the overall picture, I would like to say: The portions were very generous, but I still dare to write that the welcome usual papadum with a few dips was missing. You could probably order that yourself over the starters. The appetizers and drinks make the struggle for the right price calculation clear. Here I find that a lot of things are too expensive in both departments. The main course is currently well accentuated in the context of simple serving. Card payment is possible, the handwritten bill clearly and legibly showed our consumption. Thank you boss for the resulting conversation and I wish you well-deserved success in the desired optimizations.

Very tasty food! Top service. Friendly and quick. Would recommend it to everyone and eat there again and again

The atmosphere is rather simple. The food, however, was super delicious! The staff is very nice and lovely. Mega insider tip!!

Rice n'Spice offers an exceptional dining experience with its diverse and flavorful buffet, priced at €25-30. The standout dishes, particularly the aromatic biryani and rich butter chicken, are a delight. Coupled with its cozy and welcoming ambiance, this restaurant is a perfect blend of delicious food and comfortable atmosphere, making it a must-visit for food enthusiasts.

Very nice waiter. And the buffet was great! Gladly again!

The food was great. The idea of ​​the buffet which you can order from the menu is great. All dishes tasted good. The staff were very friendly. The atmosphere could be a little friendlier and more oriental. But all in all it was a successful visit to the restaurant.

The two of us were there for the first time yesterday and we were very impressed. The employees are super friendly and very attentive. The food was really good, a really great experience. In terms of ambience, it is very simple, but definitely charming. I think that the demands on it are greatly exaggerated these days and the church should be left in the village. It was clean, nicely lit and cozy. We will be back definitely!!!

We went there for dinner for the first time today and the many good reviews made me curious. It was really great. The restaurant is not very modern, but it doesn't have to be. We immediately felt welcome, the staff were very friendly. The buffet was great because you get so many small insights into Indian cuisine. Every dish was simply great!!!!!!! We will definitely come back and can definitely recommend the restaurant. Thank you for the delicious and cozy evening!

Very tasty and authentic Indian food.

My first time here is very pleasant. Take home some pizza. Buffet is offered here and breakfast. A new customer drink with it :) Mango lassi. Delicious! Come back ! With family and friends ♡

The food was delivered 1.15 hours later, even though on tel. 45 minutes was promised. Despite numerous orders, too little bread was delivered. The packaging and the appearance of the food was unappetizing. The taste was not good. We won't order there again.
