Spice Merchant - Henley on Thames in South Oxfordshire

Awful curry smelt and tasted like tomato soup was meant to be butter chicken. Chicken was tough. Aloo go I very bland no taste. Staff more concerned with their takeaway orders

Expensive but tasty but not outstanding food. Very nice selection of food and drink and excellent service. Probably the best curry in Henely but not as good as the Mowchak in Stokenchurch.

Very Tasty food. We tried Tarka Dal and Vegitable naitara. Their Garlic Naan was the best i have ever eaten. Highly recommended 👌

Excellent curry. Had both takeout and dine in at different times. While service was sometimes a little bit slow, it generally exceeded expectations in terms of food.

My favourite Indian restaurant!! The king prawn tikka masala is amazing and the staff are so friendly!

No service at all, intact awful! We booked for a special Saturday night celebration and was treated terribly...so much so, regulars were serverd even before they took our order! We had a bill for £366 (1 bottle wine) for a table of 6 people! For average food! Really disappointing,! shame really as our close friend is a high profile client! We will leave to his discretion whether he visits again!

One of the starters we ordered was extremely spicy...almost inedible. We asked them to make it less spicy but the serving staff was in such hurry that inspite of listening to us properly and patiently, they made it sweet. Then we asked them again to balance out the sweet and spicy and not an extreme of either flavours...which they did.Eventually we ate what we finally got but their attitude was very off putting and it felt as if they were blaming us for it.Therefore not the best of places in terms of hospitality.

Afternoon tea was excellent, a great selection on both the meat and veggie options. A really nice twist on a classic and a nice view of the Thames to top it all off.

Friendly staff, good location, nice ambience. Slightly smaller portions than you’d expect. For a main course of Tandoori tiger prawns at £21.95 you’d expect more than 5 on a plate! However the butter murgh was the best I’ve ever had. Deep, rich and complex.

Great food! Came here for Indian style afternoon tea. Lovely and a nice change from the usual cakes and sandwiches.
