Had our annual Xmas Dinner and as usual the food, service and atmosphere were top notch. As local Oban folk we have takeaways throughout the year and again cannot fault them. Never had the staff be rude, I've heard them deal with awkward and entitled people in a calm and professional manner. Highly recommend Spice World.

I really liked that place! From the outside it kind of looked...not like a nice place, but once you enter the actual restaurant it is an okay good spot to be (just the ambience, I mean). The service was amazing though and the food was just delicious! I am really thinking about going back just tomorrow...

Food was delicious. We had chicken tikka and chicken madras. It was really tasty and didn't need to wait for that long. They also do a bit of Thai and Chinese food as well.

Great Indian food with a view. You can look over the bay and enjoy your diner. The menu had lots of options also vegetarian options. The food tastes great and is reasonably priced. The staff will help you with your order if you’re not sure what you want and recommend extras to ensure you have a great meal.

My wife and I ate here last night. We asked for a window seat and had a great view over the harbour. My wife had a Thai starter (vermicelli spring rolls) and Chinese main (lamb spicy noodles hot). I had Indian starter (tandoori salmon) and Indian main (mix chicken and lamb shaslik) with a large keema naan bread. We shared a bottle of Sauvignon blanc (18) plus a bottle of cobra . We were very pleased with the food and service was friendly. Total bill including a 10% tip was 80 for two. Would we recommend and come back? Yes .

Excellent food, good service and good value for money. They’re open throughout the year which is a bonus. My regular every time I’m up in Oban. Well done guys! My second visit, cannot fault the food I had; asked for less spicy and got exactly what I asked for!!
