Reviewer Kate Owen  -  gourmet

Le Spice in Ware has long been a favourite for excellent Indian cuisine - quite different from the average 'curry house', last night's food was no exception. The tilapia dish was excellent, my Canadian family rated it the best Indian they have ever had! Service can be a little random, but the friendliness and helpfulness of everyone more than compensates.
