Review Spice Alley - Auckland Central

Icy Guo

Excellent flavour, and massive portion for the price~ Service wise, friendly staff, and the food came out super quick! The pork ribs and softshell crab has always been my favourite, theirs was cooked perfectly~ The pancake was recommended by the waitress, and it was a surprise, very tasty. Could do with a bite more vegetables in the curry dish though.

For pre-Opera dinner, we dined at Spice Alley at SkyCity and the restaurant interior was colorful, vibrant and very festive with orange and red Asian street ornaments. The staff was very welcoming and our drink and food orders were readily taken. We ordered the green rice prawns with spicy dipping sauce and ceviche tuna lettuce cups and our entrees were delicious, fresh and flavorful. To follow on, our mains were the Temple Chicken Salad and Chicken Pad Thai and our dishes were beautiful, although they could be spicier. The wine selection was very good and the main waiter, Vitale, was exceptional. His service was wonderful and attentive, particularly when we noticed our mains were taking longer to be delivered just simply in comparison to other tables being served mains when they arrived after us. Overall the dining experience was exciting and enjoyable, very much so that I’d love to visit again to try other enticing dishes! Highly recommended!

Liked the overall food and atmosphere there...looks like I am in an Asian restaurant right from the moment I stand in front of the gate! Lol Only couple of things I had tested there but in that brief list I can certainly pick my favourite...Yum Tan soup...delicious and unearthly haha...i have got smiley mashroom in my soup as well, that was hilarious 😂 😂 😂

Food: 4/5 ⭐⭐ ⭐ ⭐ I ordered the khao pad which was tasty, but a little more on the oily side. The rest of the group got the chicken tikka masala and pad thai which they enjoyed. In saying that, the food did take a little bit of time so the best place if you're in a rush. Overall, pretty decent! Atmosphere: 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like the other restaurants in Skycity, Spice Alley is well decorated with cute hanging umbrellas and tuk tuks. The little courtyard area is great you sit and enjoy a drink in when the sun's shining. Staff: 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No faults here. We were seated promptly and they were very attentive! When we asked how far the food was, they checked with the kitchen and brought the food out almost instantly Overall, Spice Alley is a great place to impress someone on a budget with their tasty food and nice and relaxed atmosphere

The place is cozy with a nice design. There a lots of mini lantern on the ceiling and unique umbrellas on the corner. It is a mixed asian restaurant (Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, India, Turkey, etc). The food taste good and need a bit improvement to reach the authentic level of the original taste. The spoon/fork is certainly unique. However, I'm a bit sceptical about cleanliness in the handle hole. Cozy, friendly staff, clean environment.

Yvannah Graham

Yummy food! Busy as. A mix up with our Groupon which could have been avoided the minute we walked in, but wasn't a big deal.

Keith Emmerson

Nice place to eat, well priced and food was really tasty and flavour packed. Service was pretty damn quick too, food came out in less than 5 mins.

Heather Dawson

8 of us had delicious meals. My first experience of Thai food. The waitress Nasha was very helpful with help with the menu and different coffees. 2 meals delayed the reason explained: Asian system is to share meals whereas we had ordered individual meals. A learning experience. Venue absolutely fantastic.

Jas

Went there on Friday and really enjoyed the food. The interior has a cool theme. I liked the concept of ordering big dishes to share amongst 2-3 people - that also helped the food come out faster. Only negative is that there could have been less salt put in the nasi goreng

Nelia Wilkinson

Tasty food. Generous portions. Pleasant atmosphere. Will keep coming

Jacqui Henzer

We had a beautiful evening at Spice Alley. Good, fast and very friendly service. Cosy and loved the decor and overall atmosphere of this little gem. We visited on a Groupon voucher, and being let down time after time before at other eateries, we were nicely surprised at this one! Generous portions and if you want the best pork ribs ever, you have to try it at Spice alley! The flavours were heavenly and the same with the Panang Chicken! The only reason for 4/5 stars is the soft shell crab was a bit too oily for us, however, a more than generous portion. The food was presented beautifully and we left the restaurant with happy tummies. Definately recommend Spice Alley. We will be back. 💗

Matthew Hansen

Limited choice for light snacks, team were cheerful and polite.

Jin Mike

colourful place, service is average, food taste good, little bit over salted, pork salad too dry, it's hard to chew pork, maybe overcooked. lunch special are very valuable, had beef at Sunday, very tasty, and good portion size

Feroza Valentine

April Rose

The food was tasty and delicious. The lighting however was dim and way too dark. A bit pricey and some of the portion sizes were poor in comparison to the price.

Shubika Khanna

Mains came before the entrees, took too long to bring simple drinks and take orders, 1 hour for the food to arrive. Below average experience and average food

Sheena (Code SHEE7152H For Zomato Gold)

So-so food but the service is A+! I ordered Nasi Goreng and it turned out to be just fried rice. It wasn’t the Nasi Goreng that I used to have in Malaysia. I was a bit disappointed with that. We ordered five dishes and it came out one by one every 5 minutes. With such, we cannot start eating since we have to wait for all the food to be served.

Emma Holgérus

If you are gluten free steer clear, only one starter (tiger prawns) can be made Gluten free but all other items not possible as they are made from packets. We went somewhere else, disappointed.

I Am Hungry

We called the restaurant for booking a table around 5pm, they told us you dont need to book just walk in. When we walked in we asked for the cubical seats, even though there was one available the lady said its reserved? and later on she did the same thing to others... Well i thought you dont take reservations??? I would not mind that so much however the table we were seated on was very uncomfortable and cheap which spoiled the entire evening for us, SHAME , high food price but cant afford a proper chair. Food is 3/5, also servers dont use tray while serving drinks, even the lady manager does not, she just brings the drink straight in her had with her finger marks on your glass...they should maintain a class being in SKYCITY..another thing that we found poor was that the food does not come all at once....while you wait ... it already cold. ambiance is good.

Amindha Fernando

A great little addition to SkyCity. Saw this opened a little while back and decided to give it a shot. The food was good but could have done with a bit of spice. The fried rice was good but could have used a bit more of a flavour punch. Overall can recommend!

Grace

Great food which was very flavorsome. Had a pad Thai and pork belly salad. Both reasonably priced around $15-$17. Service was fast, efficient and friendly. Nice ambience will definitely be returning 👍🏻☺️👅🍽

Kelsey Adair

Been here a few times now. Always really delish flavours. Sometimes it's become so busy that they have to turn people away. The ribs were so so good. Such a big portion for an entire. The pad thai and chicken pancake is always really good too. The desserts are good too I love the pandan custard!

Ang Sarap

Looking for some good Thai fusion in Auckland CBD? If yes then head over to Spice Alley in Sky City and you will be in for a treat. This place is quite new, the last time I ate here it was still a dim sum place, now it totally transformed to this Asian fusion and it was amazing. This time it was well built, we love the decors everywhere, very vibrant, very colourful and well themed, feels like you were transported to Thailand.

Emily

Love the decor and atmosphere here. service was great too. however I think the food is a bit on the average side. Portions are good and are well priced too. The tuna lettus wrap and pork ribs are recommended.

Jen Lee ( Zomato Gold Using JENL 8447 For 20% Discount)

Had a great dinner here last night celebrating mum’s birthday with the family. The ambience of the restaurant was nicely decorated with hanging oriental umbrellas and art work as well as a back garden at the rear of the restaurant for photos later. We ordered 16 dishes from the dinner menu to share but I can only show 10 here due to restrictions on Zomato. We ordered: Singapore Noodle, Steamed Market Fish, Ga Duk Moug, Kumara Pakora, Guing Tod, Seekh Kebab, Tom Yum with Prawn, Banh Xeo, Pad Thai, Khao Pad, Lamb Vindaloo, Tandoor Chicken, Hoy Tod, Temple chicken salads and Yum Mong Kup. Overall the dishes were very flavourful and delicious. Our food arrives quickly one after another. The waiters were all very friendly and attentive. Will definitely return to try other dishes on the menu. Overall score: Food:5/5 Ambience:5/5 Service:5:5 Value for money:5/5

Crackerjacker

Great place. I love the decorations and the ambiance of the place. Only went there because there was a grab one deal but once there noticed they had a lot of other daily food deals that I’d love to get on top of. Curries were spot on, definitely ordering it next time

Lisa Rainicorn

Really fresh, flavoursome and fantastic food at Spice Alley! Generous portions at reasonable prices and friendly service - highly recommend a visit. Pork ribs, rice pancake, soft shell crab and the pork hock are all delicious.

Excellent flavour, and massive portion for the price~ Service wise, friendly staff, and the food came out super quick! The pork ribs and softshell crab has always been my favourite, theirs was cooked perfectly~ The pancake was recommended by the waitress, and it was a surprise, very tasty. Could do with a bite more vegetables in the curry dish though.

Garron White

I was quite surprised by this place. Resturant is on the 3rd floor in the sky tower and upon entering u expect will be an arm and a leg to pay. But the prices were okay and the food itself pretty yum. The thing I like about this place is their portion sizes are massive. We had the nasi goreng and chicken laksa. Service is really good here and the resturant itself is so well thought out decor wise and service wise

Psico Chola

I just had Pad Thai from Spice Alley while my other mate had Tom Yum Prawn. It was amazing. Loved the vibes, the customer service, loved everything about it. I just wish that the Tom Yum Prawn wasn't too salty but other than that, we both loved the pad thai. For dessert, I loved the Panacotta and the Crispy Banana. Highly recommended if you want to have some good food and good customer service.

“Dailee” 25% Off Zomato Gold

Pretty good food, fast service and great decor. We had the 50% off deals so we decided to try nearly everything on the lunch menu. Our favourites are the tom yum, laksa, nasi goreng, chicken & pork belly salads and kumara pakora. The milo dinosaur was a dissapointment, taste bland! Okra fish curry is too fishy for our liking. The two other curries (Panang and Tikka I think) are too sweet. The ribs kinda burnt so abit bitter.

Fra Lowe

Food was alright. The pawpaw salad was nice, however the pork hock we had was extremely overcooked. It was dry, hard to chew, and not an ounce of juiciness. Be wary when ordering the pork hock.

Zeena Downs

Great asian cuisine, lots of dishes from all over south east Asia, they can adjust the spicyness. the service was amazing as the staff who was serving us spent time with our kids too. We really enjoyed our time and we will be bringing our friends too.

Divzna

Loved the decor, great ambiance and food was good too!! Definitley will be going back. Highly recommend the fried rice and the soft shelled crabs.

Bailey

Had dinner here one yet and was impressed with the food and service. The restaurant had really nice decor which enhanced the experience of dinning at a Asian cuisine restaurant. I ordered the fried rice with a chicken skewer and had a lemon lime and bitters. The food was tasty and fairly decently priced.

Maria Zinck-Hauga

Had lunch here and ordered the Fish Madras with rice, tasted really good, with spiciness on point however some of the fish pieces I had was quite chewy but overall quite happy with my order. Ambience wise, a lot of dining space and the decor very pleasing. I wouldn’t mind dining here again.

Zack

Food was actually not that great we ordered the lamb shank curry and the shank was so cold inside didn’t have any taste felt like boiled shanks in water. Would definitely not go back and wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Josh Nufablé

Went with a large group and this place was ace! Super fast service and we ordered from the set menu and the amount of food we got was crazy! Very tasty!

Manoj Patel

Heard a lot of mixed reviews about this place, so thought I'd try it for myself. The staff were great, the food was quite good, only downside was the lighting where we sat was darkish. Would definitely go again. Must try their Kumara Pakora and Soft Shell Crab.

David Sylvester He

Really enjoyed our visits here. The service was fantastic, and food was decent, and the atmosphere was definitely buzzing, all immersed in ornately decorated oriental decor. We have returned here on numerous occasions and I can say if I wanted to entertain my guests to some Southeast Asian cuisine, this is the spot I'd pick.

Pigout

Great customer service & good interior design. However the food are pretty average. Ordered 5 dishes and costed $82 so the price are reasonable

Brooklyn

Were seated and asked if we wanted sparkling or still water -we went for still cause we didn’t want to get charged for water nor use glass bottles when tap water is waste free... got charged $13 for bottled water... GREAT! This restaurant also supplies disposable chopsticks which isn’t only wasteful but kind of tacky. Were left waiting a little too long to take our order BUT food arrived quick enough. The market fish entree was a bit too spicy as we werent asked our spice preference, the pork belly and rice was delicious though!! We were seated in a booth where the seats kept moving every time people on a separate table wriggled or moved which was annoying. Probably won’t be back if were gonna get charged for water again but the pork belly is a bit tempting.

Pick&Mix

Beautifully decorated. Nice staff. Not a whole heap of selection for a vegetarian but enough. I ordered a rice basil dish and it was very bland the others I was with were meat eaters and thought their food was ok but not exactly spicy. They do have sauces to jazz things up but the overall feeling was it was just okay.

Potatomatoes

The staff was confused about the processes but he was bubbly and entertaining so we were happy. We ordered satay, laksa and pad thai. They were all very good. This place is great when you need a safe option for your guests.

Bhavya

Decent menu with not too many options, but very flavourful. Very nicely decorated interior, and friendly staff. The only dish I have been somewhat disappointed with was their laksa - the soup was made entirely with coconut milk and it didn’t sit well with my tummy. Their wok fried greens with bamboo is super tasty - we order this every time we visit. Overall, good experience and not too heavy on the wallet

AnselX

Take sooo long to make the dishes even is not that busy during the lunch time. I’m waiting for ages! Also each dishes is quit small! Not recommend it!

Dexter Henderson

Average with a side of spicy. We came in here last night with a grab one voucher. You cannot book unless you have 8 people or more. So on a Saturday night you will either need to go in really early or later on to get a table when you want. We had to wait 30 minutes to get a table. Once we got a table again we got told that food would also take some time because of how busy they are. The food we ordered was Kumara Pakora, this seemed over cooked and didn’t have a heck of s lot of flavour. We also got the pork belly salad that was listed on their chalkboard saying a must try. Well in my opinion this was also over cooked and dry bits of meat the dressing was quite spicy which was nice. The curry we ordered was the fish curry. Now this was spicy. So spicy that you actually couldn’t taste any other flavour. It was cooked with okra and coconut but no you couldn’t taste it. And again. Fish. Over. Cooked. All in all just very average. Not gonna rush back here even with a grab one voucher

EatR

I took away the market fish curry but there was none any fish inside. I have no idea why it was chicken curry. There is no chicken curry on its Lunch Manu. The totally good thing was I paid with grab one voucher

Ayin.guillermo

Aside from the colourful and beautiful ambiance, we loved the food. The satay with peanut sauce is a must try. Have tried the fish curry and it’s really impressive! Will be coming back definitely.

Melvin Villacruz

Pretty simple menu. Some staff was good, some wasn’t. Male staff just took a menu out of our table without even saying anything and left. Pretty average experience. Was expecting little bit more cause it’s in Sky City.

Ronagrail Totanes

Very good place to dine in. Food is average. Service was okay. At times felt ignored by the staff not even sure if she was a waiter(she was wearing a uniform) but she was just standing the looking around. Tried to get her attention when we were ready to order but just avoided us.

Shirley Wu

Good customer service. Food was served within 10 mins after i places my order. Decor and atmosphere are lovely. Food is delicious. I will come back if they have a special deal again in Grabone.

Purplebutterfly43

Yummy. Love the food here. The dragon wings are amazing. It was a bit oily at the end. But overall very yummy. The environment is good. Great customer service.

Suchandra Saha

Visited Spice Alley on a Thursday lunch. It wasn't too empty. So I thought that it must be a popular place around. I got a Grabone coupon for this place and it was my first time. They do have limited options and as mentioned by the staff, it is a combination of multiple asian cuisin. We ordered Nasi Goreng and Chicken Penang Curry. The portions were good. Chicken Penang curry was served with rice and roti and was okay in taste. Nasi Goreng was okay but I felt they ysed too much of fish oil. I had nasi goreng in many places but never felt the fish sauce flavour so loud. Also ordered 2 skewers 9f chicken sate which was okay too. Overall an average experienxe. Staff were good and humble.Service was fast too.

KingTama

The atmosphere is beautiful, the decor is to die for. Totally instagram-worthy. I had a grab one voucher $60 for $120 food & drinks. The food was so delicious and rich of flavour. There were 4 of us and we all ordered a different item from the menu. Ka Mong Tu - could’ve done with more meat, it looked huge because of the bone but either than that my brother loved it. Tom Yum w/ Prawn, Nadi Goreng and Laksa plus a roti each. Each of us really enjoyed what we ordered. You definitely get what you pay for as the portions are huge. We had to take away as we couldn’t finish them. Definitely worth checking out.

GerryPapps

Used a Grabone voucher here, so at half price was just OK costwise. Chicken skewers are smaller than served at other restaurants. The nasi goreng fried rice was heavy and soggy and seemed boiled rather than fried. Had to cover it with siracha chili sauce to get a bit of live into it. Singapore noodles pretty bland too. Two tiny pieces of chicken came with it the nasi goreng. Staff friendly and decor great but let down by the food. We won't go back.

JPK

Very beautiful decor... Vibrant colours make atmosphere more beautiful. Tried warm laksa soup with tofu , enjoyed every sip/bite of it. Creamy texture and crispy tofu is amazing lunch option for vegetarians 🤩 noodles make it wonderful 👍

Johann Reynon Aya-ay

My family and I went to dine to celebrate my birthday. We ordered for entree: sticky ribs which my son loved its sweet taste and the meat melts in your mouth plus the vietnamese duck spring roll which was fresh and a good way to start a meal. For mains: we ordered the sri-lankan lamb shank curry with roti. Always loved sri-lankan curry and this met my expectation, it has a little kick of spiciness and the roti is crispy on the outside and soft inside-goes well with the curry (finger-licking). Next was the crispy pork hock, kinda like the one's I used to eat in the Philippines with a twist of thai sauce on the side. The skin was crispy and flavourful. We also had the nasi goreng. Lovely flavor To top up with this delectable dinner, i got a grabone voucher worth $120 and i only paid half price for $60.. so this was definitely a 10 out of 10 experience.

Annie Ren

Spice Alley has a good vibe with very cheerful decor and a very lovely ambience. There were a good range of Thai and Vietnamese inspired food and everything is suitable for sharing. The Vietnamese summer rolls were quite bland but the sauce was great and had a kick to it. We also had the chicken sate (skewers) which were super crunchy (some kind of crispy coating) and flavourful. I loved the coconut milk and peanut paste! For mains we shared the fried salmon wings and market fish curry. The salmon wings were different from what I expected as it wasn't Panko crumbed and the style was more like pan fried. The curry was interesting though. Definitely rate the Okura and the crispy roti. Again I think Spice alley nailed the flavour. Although as a curry it was quite funny and I would've preferred the paste to be a bit more creamy instead.

®-®-©hin....

Had a late lunch here last week with high expectations of this place only to be let down by a very basic lunch menu,. not a menu with a wow factor,and what the??a Malaysian style restaurant with no curry dishes on offer??tried the bun mei,satay chicken,chicken salad all we're tasty enough but very basic and pricey for what you get? Better offerings in the food court down the road

Bill T

First time we have visted this place found it over priced and average at best . Not much variety or choice on the menu. Won't be going back.

Shantanu Vaidya

A different kind of experience I visited this place a few weeks ago, we had ordered a few things which we thought were new and should try them to know what was the hype. 1:Pork ribs : I am not a pork loving guy and this was my first time when I really loved the flavours. The sauce was made with lemongrass and it was going very well with the strong flavour of pork. 2: Laksa: this dish never lets you down, the flavour was very good, it was full of chicken and tofu and every bite had spring onions and chilli. It was an average dish on the menu but the safest option. 3 : Pork hock: Probably the driest thing I ever had. Man this dish needs some sauce. The pork was nice and crispy. The sauce which they gave with it was so less that I finished it in my first bite. This was probably the reason I have rated only 3* 4: Chicken Satay : I simply loved this dish. Although I expected some crunchy peanut on top but no complaints about it. Overall you should try this place. Not bad but could be better.

Gareth Neilson

Friendly efficient service, tasty weel preparef dishes and good value. If you are of the larger size, avoid the booth tables - unless you want to limit your intake. The crispy pork hock was great lots of meat falling off the bone with perfectly crispy skin. It was better than the German version of this dish that I was served in Mainz last year. The Fish madras and green prawns were fresh, tender and tasty. Would definitely return here.

PK

Decor is very nice and has the feel that you are in an Asian country. Staff are friendly . Food menu is different for lunch amd dinner.The nasi goreng fried rice is very tasty full of flavours. The Vietnamese spring rolls were nice and fresh. The Tom yum soup was a very big serve which was almost impossible to finish. I prefer the dinner menu to lunch.Overall good food for a quick bite.

Swetha

Entering the place all I could think was, the decoration and colours is amazing so I had a good feeling about this place. Ordered 6 dishes out of which I would say the chicken pad Thai and bang bang chicken ranked the best while the fried rice was average and the soups and starters were average as well. For drinks the Thai milk tea was heavenly where as the mojito was terrible and didn’t taste like a mojito at all, the red lotus cocktail was great as well as the fruit tea. Overall a great experience.

Steve Cleland

Went there for lunch with 4 others. Staff very friendly. The menu is quite limited. Food was delicious and was very fast. prices are ok. I would go again.

LilMSunshine

Nice Oriental decor. Tables are clean and tidy. Just the right table spaces considering the small area. You will be greeted by friendly and very accommodating staff that will serve water by the time you are seated. Staff ever so keen for your order always around to help you. So I ordered Steamed Bao and Vegetable rolls. I just find the rolls plain and tasteless, but the Bao is quite good actually. There's the taste of crunchiness inside that makes it special. I love the decor and ambiance. Price is not so bad too. I will come back for their dinner menu next time....

Duying Cong

The waitress is very friendly. The waitress Clair gave us good recommendations for our late lunch. The soap noddle and pad Thai are so amazing, better than most Thai restaurants I’ve tried around. The pork salad tastes healthy and fresh, the pork is cooked so crispy. Such a fancy lunch experience with spice alley!

Lin Hao

This is the fist time ive been here,i just wanna say AMAZING! Wonderful food and Lovely drinks Best experience beiing Spice Alley I promise u ill come back soon,love u guys

👨‍🍳👩‍🍳😍

New restaurant in skycity, old jade dragon area. Serve South East Asian, good value and excellent service. Didn’t know much about the menu. Staff give quite lots of recommendations. Will go back again.

Foodlover

Nasi goreng is nice! Hope they give 1 more sate though but very big portion and reasonable price . Staff was kind enough to offer me take away box as i can't finish it so cheers to good service!

Hello31

Colourful decor! Especially the corner area that looks like a small garden was beautiful. Love the yum mong kup. The roast pork belly salad was amazing. Laksa was really nice too! Creamy texture but not really spicy so I added some chilli into it. Will defined come back for more!

Punkboy16lee

Very good restaurant. Friendly staff. Beautiful food. This is one of the best restaurant I had. Waitress Clair provides us premium services. Thank u .

Penny122333

It’s so delicious food and service. Amazing food ! I had really nice dinner . Nasi Gerong was so good with one chicken sate. Ayam Gelok perfect. Thanks so much for the chef team and front house team. l will come again.

Ccc

Really delicious South East Asian food . The waiter all positive service and the food were pretty nice and yummy. They do Thai, Vietnam,Malaysia, Singapore, Indian food. . The environment also pretty and special. I feel like in Thai. I will come again.

Qkrwhrms

Nice food with very vibrant environment. Love the design too. Food wise I really like the laksa. It was sweet and little spice but tasty. The nasi goreng was fabulous too with sate chicken which I love too. Defintely recommend friends to try.

Food Explorer

Nice decor and service was good. Chicken satay was the best out of what we have ordered. Meat was tender and flavour was good. Chicken Laksa was very creamy but not very authentic taste wise. Som Tom salad was soso as well. Great price and fair standard for a city location.

888bing888

Great ambience, friendly and attentive staff and good food. Tried their Ka Mong Tod, Chicken Laksa and Iced Milo Dinosaur. We were expecting a pork hock for Ka Mong Tad based on the description in the menu but it came out with ribs instead. However, it was tasty with a nice saltish flavour, some parts were a little dry but still ok. The laksa’s flavour has a mild spice and a little sweet. Good dining experience for us.

Naima Khan

We visited Spice Alley on a Friday night post work on a whim as it was next to our workplace. The moment you reach level 3 you are greeted by this vibrant orange painted wall and the decor of the place is colourful with lots of Chinese umbrellas, lanterns and just a splash of happy bright cheery hues around. So we were seated promptly and thankfully it wasn’t as busy yet a pleasant buzz was present. We were 3 people and so we ordered a few things off the menu to share. Ordered the Green Rice Tiger Prawns with Red Capsicum Dip, Soft Shell Crabs with butter & garlic & Nasi Goreng. Whilst we ordered we were informed duly about the wait time for our meal and yet everything came out pretty quick as such. First came the tiger prawns which was crisp outside and soft inside but the hero was the dip! So good! Definitely recommend it, then we had the Nasi Goreng and pleasantly surprised by the heat in the dish as we all love our spices and this had a bit of a kick to it absolutely loved it. And then, came the soft shell crab dish and it was so good, a bit salty to my liking but that’s not a big issue as such the flavour was still there. Definitely good to see that they didn’t go stingy on it, the portion was good for all 3 of us to comfortably share. Lastly we ordered the fried banana with caramel sauce & served with vanilla bean ice cream. And boy that was a treat!!! Overall it was an evening well spent with a satisfying meal & it’s reasonably priced as well. I suggest a visit is worth a while for sure.

Manjeet Singh

Such a nice spot -food was tasty and awesome service . The dragon wings are mouth watering and the decor of the restaurant is 10/10. One of the best restaurant for hangout and price are firm as well .

I_like_pickles

Newly opened Spice Alley where Jade Dragon used to be. The menu is straightforward and had a signature dish from most of the Asian countries. It's a great menu where you can taste all of Asia in one place. Was greeted by friendly and helpful staff. Service was quick, we were seated straight away and given menus and water. It wasn't too busy, which may have been one reason why the service was so quick. Highlights: The laksa was really nicely flavoured. I liked that it wasn't too spicy and had a sweet coconut taste to it. They were very generous with the crispy pork belly however it was a bit too dry. The Tom yum soup was perfect in the flavour department and had plenty of mushrooms. The chicken sate was tender and well seasoned. Not so highlights: I would not recommend the vegetarian Vietnamese summer rolls. It was so tasteless, the dipping sauce couldn't save it. It wasn't very well wrapped either because the fillings just spilled out once you took a bite. The pho was average at best. I wouldn't recommend the Singapore noodles either. It was over cooked to the point it was soggy and stuck together, and burnt because if that. You can easily get better Singapore noodles at a Chinese takeaway. The decor is lovely. I love the lush plant wall at the back of the restaurant and the intimate dining booths. The lanterns and parasols hanging from the ceiling is a fantastic touch to the decor. Would definitely dine here again.
