Spice level should help you enjoy the dish, not overpower it. Here's how to choose well when ordering Indian food.
March 27, 2026
Heat is only one dimension of flavor. Aroma, sweetness, acidity, smoke, and richness all matter just as much.
If you prefer milder food, start with dishes that still carry spice character through toasted cumin, black pepper, or fenugreek rather than raw heat.
The best recommendation often comes from the team serving you. A good suggestion can match your comfort level without flattening the experience.

First time here as we were staying at the marriot... food was amazing and the staff were very tentative, couldn't fault anything and will definately go back if we are in the area

Can get a bit hectic and busy over the weekend. Best to book in advance. Good food, and service. They do very well with managing larger groups and send the orders out in a timely fashion.
