Customer Review Summary
Friendly, welcoming staff come up in nearly every review, and diners most often pair that with fresh, flavourful curries. Single-dish praise centres on the madras, called legendary by one regular, while others name the chilli masala, chicken tikka masala and bhuna. One family returned from a takeaway for the meat thalis, saying each dish had just the right amount. Reviewers also describe big portions and good prices, and one Indian diner calls the flavours authentic. Draught Cobra and Kingfisher are mentioned among the drinks. The main caveat is heat: one reviewer found the curries less spicy than at other venues and suggests asking for them hot when ordering. Another dropped a star because the flush in the ladies toilet was not working. Staff are described as accommodating with special requests, and one group with a wheelchair user found access and the disabled toilet no problem. Several say they would return, and one calls it a go-to local.

“Think big portions, big flavours and everything is super affordable. What an amazing restaurant, what amazing staff, and even more amazing is their food. Real, authentic Indian food - probably the best in Maidstone(I am Indian btw, and finding flavours this authentic is difficult). A huge shoutout to my new Bengali manager friend. What an absolute legend.”

“Tried the ch Chilli Masala at Spice Hut Maidstone and it was absolutely delicious! Packed with flavour, perfectly spiced, and cooked to perfection. The sauce was rich and tasty without being overpowering, and the chicken was tender and fresh. Great portion size, friendly staff, and quick service made the whole experience even better. If you enjoy flavourful Indian dishes with a nice kick, the Chilli Masala is definitely worth trying. Will definitely order it again!”
- Laura Gale
