Have always liked the food here. Was my go to when I lived in Papatoetoe. Good food and accommodating service
First time customer and didn't disappoint. Vegetarian biryani was really nice and so was the mix vegetable curry. Will definitely try other dishes from here rather than driving all the way to Sandringham
Tried Southern Spice as a recommendation from a friend and I could not be happier. Perfectly cooked biryani, the lamb masala was a taste explosion on the palate. Succulent lamb and chicken, the heat level was spot on. Please never change your recipes!
A good economical option. We mostly do takeaways here and it has been good. A good variety to choose from.
Their Indo-Chinese options and Biryani are spot on!
The paneer butter masala was amazing, the naans were fresh hot and had a great taste and texture. The veg Manchurian was also outstanding!! The vege buryani was quite good and a good large quantity for $10.Food came out fast and waitress was friendly and able to answer questions about the food. Prices are reasonable. The food came out within 10minutes. Some music for dining in would be nice though. some of the cutlery on the table was also not clean .will return again though for take out!
Nice place for a casual dinning or takeaway. Good taste and good quantity for decent price. I have loved their curries and naan were exceptionally good. Something I was not expecting. This is gonna be the new place for my takeaway!!
Great biryani! My goto place when I crave biryani. Also recommend the methi chicken. Reasonable price. Ambience not so good. Have always done takeaways. The chicken 65 was a total letdown.
If you live in South Auckland and don’t want to drive to Sandringham for a trusted family pack of Biryani this is a great alternative. I am a hard out Biryani lover and I can most definitely give their Biryani a big thumbs up!
Wish I had started ordering food from here much earlier. The Biryani was wonderful - great flavours and the meat was super soft. Saves me the hassle of going to Sandringham!! Keep up the good quality.
Food is tasty but all mains (chicken ) are with bones. No other restourants give mains (chicken) with bone. It's very dissapointing. I eat only chicken in meat. Not tried other dishes. Chicken biryani is tasty but it's too dry. They should improve on this.
Tasty food, Good ambience. Has visited this place after couple of years..Definetly alot of improvement in food quality..
Good and service was good where tables were so sticky and dirty...not an ambiance to go for sit-down dinner ..only take away are good as food was good ...
We had placed a catering order for my kid’s birthday and the food was awesome. All the guests loved it and it was delivered on time. Thank you Southern Spice
Service was good. Food came out quite fast as well.
Price is reasonable.
Curry was probably a bit too oily, and too salty for my taste tho. Not sure if its meant to be that way.
Biryani isn't exactly fitting our palates either. Just a different style.
Else, worth a try.
Good tasty food most of the times. Service at the counter is alright. Best Biriyani shop around South Auckland. Everything else is stock standard.
We have always loved the food here, especially the chicken dum biryani, less oil and tasty, have got food catered for my baby shower and all guests loved it, it's our go to go place for take away all the time
Me and my friends decided to eat some good indian desi food. So we went to the southern spice dine-in.We ordered jalfarezi chicken, dum biryani, naan, chicken 65 and tandoori chicken. Food was soo yummy, quantity was good enough to fill your desi food cravings. Staff was very friendly and helpful. But naan was not that good. They should must improve thier naan. They serve halal. Thank you.
Love the food. Fresh, tasty, and absolutely mouthwatering. Have been there so many times.
Great food. Very economical plus friendly staff.
Ordered methi chicken and hot chicken and must say the taste was amazing.
