I normally eat on the curry mile and believe me levels are high. But Rama Spice is truly one of a kind restaurant. The food is beyond amazing, the staff run a great service. And the atmosphere is what you need after a long hard week of work. Definitely the best Indian I ever dined at. And most definitely the best Indian in Wigan without a shadow of a doubt. Keep up the great work guys πŸ‘

Excellent food. Very busy, but still good service. Find environment quite noisy, so would possibly try to go when it would be less busy.

First time ordering from Rama Spice tonight, got a take away. Arrived within 20 minutes and was absolutely beautiful, very fresh and very flavourful, we’ve tried so many Indian takeaways over the years and this is THE BEST YET. Both myself and my wife really enjoyed it and will never go anywhere else from here on out. It may be a little bit more expensive than your locals but for the quality, taste and freshness of the food is so worth it. Thank you for taking on our order and you will definitely be having our custom again

This is a 4.6 star review.Well worth a try!My review is based on the last 3 orders.All of the orders I have placed with Rama spice have been for takeaway as I have not been in the restaurant.Rama spice is a Restaurant that I believe started to do takeaway during lockdown.I have ordered 3 or 4 times and as I usually do if the first time is positive I like to get a feel of consistency before leaving a review.The prices are restaurant prices which are slightly more expensive than some of the local takeaways (NHS discount is available on collections)The last order I placed was for some vegan & pescitarian dishes. I have to mention that not only does the menu have vegan rated listing on but the gentleman who answered the phone seemed very informed about food being vegan. After requesting the first vegan dish he made A Point of saying just let me know every dish that you want vegan. As the dishes Are marked Vegan I am guessing that these guys are taking every precaution not to make mistakes or cross contaminated. Very positive.I have ordered a number of dishes but the chana masala (chickpeas) has been a Constant on all my orders. It is marked as a hot dish but as the heat from this dish is dirived from fresh chillies some natural variation in heat occurs and the previous time to this order was a little milder than the hot I wanted (honest I'm not trying to be a Hard chilli eater 😁) so I requested the dish to be extra hot and it seemed to do the trick. The dish was tasty, spicy, satisfying and the fresh spices definitely came through. The undertone of fresh ground cardimon was presant which really lifted the dish and give it an authentic feel. Absolutely spot on and a Must try. The starter I had was samosa chaat. A selection of chopped up somosas in corriandor, onion and masala. This was a wonderful dish. The samosa was perfect, not soggy or to hard or too crispy and the vegatable filling was identifiable with a nice subtle spice. Everything worked well together. We also ordered chapati which was thin and soft and still retained some moisture unlike many modern takes of a thicker, dry version. We had also ordered a tarka dhal which was flavourful Medium to watery consistency that is probably better as a side. (I often make or request a thick version when I want a main dish but I have not yet requested that from rama spice)We also had chips, which I am guessing are frozen fries. I wasent greatly impressed by them. They were a Little dried in the middle that often the case with frozen versions but it didn't spoil the meal. My girlfriend tried a chilli garlic king prawn starter. The prawns come in some kind of soft batter coating finished in a sticky hot chilli and garlic sauce. She said the flavour profile was nice and a good amount of heat came through but she wasent too keen on the batter so removed some of it revealing a beautifully hooked king prawn. As I asked for extra hot curry the person who took my order advised that he would send me some fresh made chilli sauce to try that was hot. It was a. Delight if you like hot sauce. Very thick and still had a good chilli taste despite the heat. They also provided a yoghurt mint sauce that I did not try so can not provide feed back. They sent a salad too which is something I love with a curry.(I phoned back after this order to pay compliments to the chef sir the chana masala)Thats the food and a definite recommendation from me. The gentleman answering the phone was a good communicator, had a. Knowledge of the menu etc, also understood the requirements of veganism, was polite and read back the Order along with an expected delivery time.The delivery driver was on time, polite and friendly.I will leave a further review of the restaurant in tbe coming weeks/months as soon as I have had the chance to give it a try. Overall great food and service.

Visited this place on a Wednesday evening (for our reserved table). Unfortunately the table wasn't ready and we had to wait for a good 15 mins atleast to be seated. In the meantime I could not notice any Covid19 related measures, except for table distances (we were told that the place operated @50% capacity, which obviously wasn't true). No staff was wearing face covering and none of the patrons were seen using the handsanitizer.This put us off and we just ordered starters. As soon as we sat to order one waiting executive told us to order quickly as the kitchen is closing. Upon insisting for full order at once we just told the person that we've just got in and should be allowed sufficient time to go through starters atleast. To which he reluctantly agreed.We then just ordered starters (panipuri, samosa chat & aloo tikki). All 3 were a major disappointment , aloo tikki was the typical store bought frozen item, similarly the samosa chat had its samosa cold. The pani puri was frankly bland. We didn't bother to order anything else and simply left.The taste is definitely not authentic.

ExcellentStaff and food here are first class.After several visits I have been happy with the whole range of food here. An espresso machine is the only thing that could make it better IMHO.

The family just loved the the place . The food was fresh and tasty . The place looks small from outside but.... big inside .All that I can say is , if you don't come and try the food sorry but you have just missed a hidden gem ...

Really good food!Recommended by my family in the area, I really enjoyed the food here. Been to a few places locally in Bolton and this is my new fav!Dishes all have distinctive flavours and the service is also good.It's not the cheapest place to eat in Bolton and unfortunately some of the portion sizes could be better (especially the starters).Size and price aside, the food is really nice and well worth a visit!
