    I'm always suspicious of restaurants like Chilli & Spice, which don't display menus in the window. However, in my restaurant trawl of Dorking, I ate at Chilli & Spice despite this little shortcoming.

    I received a warm welcome and got a pleasant surprise when I looked at the menu. Instead of a nasty shock with high prices, I found that the menu was actually full of cheaper prices - my Chinese Thrift Gene was happy!

    Munching on the obligatory popaddom, I was interested to see that they offered all the condiments separately at 50p each. This was more honest than the usual compulsory charge for all different condiments.

    I settled on reshmi kebab as a starter, mainly due to curiosity by its description as a meat patty in an omelette. It was quite a novel way to serve up a kebab - the meat was flattened into a patty and served inside an omelette. The meat was nicely flavoured and if I had a bun, it could even have been turned into an Indian version of a McDonalds egg McMuffin burger!

    For main course, I settled on a meat (lamb) methi, a side of sag paneer (Indian cheese and spinach) and some pilau rice. The methi was heavy with fenugreek and lots of fresh herbs and vegetables, confirming that it was cooked from fresh. Unfortunately, the big portions defeated my stomach and I was unable to finish all my food.

    A lovely meal but a word of advice to put their menu up in the window

    Dire tasted powder in my curry. Tried once and will never try again. This is definitely at the lower end of curry restaurants that I have tried

    Horrible service , after entering into the restaurant and after ordering few drinks, server came four times in 10 mins asking if we were ready to order food.

    Starter : Horrible taste. Very Oily . No many vegetarians options

    Main course : there were lots of typos in menu .
    After ordering Sag paneer and "Motor paneer" . We couldn't find a single piece of cottage cheese (paneer) in it .
    Curries were sweet . Being an Indian, I really don't understand why this restaurant has put sweet in the curries .

    After our dinner, I got diarrhea and tummy ache.

    Sorry but would never recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    You'll receive a warm welcome and great tasting food. Best curry in Dorking in my view.

    Great curry and if we weren't so spoilt for choice in Dorking, this would be my restaurant of choice but I have to say that for me The Dorking Brasseri just pips it.
