Queens Spice

I visited here this week with my wife and son, this is the second time we have been as we live up in Aberdeen. The food is always good and the sauce is made up of authentic flavours. Guy who owns it is always cheerful and happy to assist if you need anything, so don’t be afraid to ask!

As far as I know this is the only Indian restaurant/​takeaway I know of in South Queensferry but it does its job so well I doubt there is need for another.
Queens Spice offers a wide range of dishes with seemingly fresh ingredients. Sitting in, you are surrounded by a really hospitable, welcoming atmosphere and the staff are really helpful. The great bonus for me here is the wide selection of vegetarian starters and main meals. I would recommend the sag aloo, a potato and spinach dish, heavily flavoured with coriander and mustard seeds. Also expect to find your usual Indian curries here. Prices are pretty good/​average with starters costing £3.96+ and main courses around £7 or £8.
As already mentioned you can also order takeaway, and this is definitely something I would consider doing more regularly if I lived nearby. The only odd, but not bad, thing about this place is the strange piece of fruit you seem to acquire when you order?

Really, really very good.
I live nearly 8 miles away but this is my Indian Restaurant of choice, even if it’s just for a takeaway. It’s easily good enough to justify nearly 16 miles of driving.
As the previous reviewer has said, it can be VERY busy & I’ve been left waiting for my takeaway at a cold and draughty doorway at the busiest times. Despite this, I really didn’t mind as I’m always happy with the overall experience and in particular the food.
Again, as the previous reviewer said, the staff and manager are all very friendly and attentive.
Recommended dishes:
Chana Puri (starter)
Jaipuri Chicken
Lamb Shapla
Food always seems to be prepared with fresh ingredients and I’ve yet to have a less than totally satisfactory meal.
Go there, try it and have a few drinks in one of the locals before of after. They’re generally very welcoming places and the small-​town atmosphere is refreshing.
Actually, I think I’ll get something there tonight!

For a lonely foreign boy needing a good cry, the vindaloo had me bawling like a baby.
It’s been 10 years (1998) since I’ve been back, but it was a reliable go-​to throughout that rainy, gray summer.
It also gave me a little cachet when passing judgment on the subcontinental food out west. I mean, who’s gonna go to South Queensferry, Scotland to challenge my credibility? Nobody, that’s who.
