Loved the chicken kebab. The owner was very friendly and apologized in advance that their food sometimes takes a few minutes to prepare, which is something that I do not mind at all. If you want good food, you really have to wait for it. And boy, was it worth the wait! I highly recommend this place if you want really good Indian food!

Love Indian food and this place takes first place in my opinion for the whole of Cebu. Still work in progress with the venue but the food has all the flavours and each and every dish has its own unique flavour. Many others have tried but to my taste the spice has what I like.

Authentic Indian cuisine indeed! Will be coming back for more. Highly recommend their Chicken 65 and Masala dishes. We plan to try a new dish every time we come back here. The owner told us in advance that it might take longer than usual to prepare the food. We didn't mind - we're not here for "fastfood quality" munchies anyway. The wait wasn't that long anyway, and the food was worth it. The place had a homey feel to it and the owner and his staff were very friendly too. Overall, 5/5!

Absolutely delicious food and their roti is affordable compared to other establishments I’ve dined at in Cebu. The serving size is also worth your every peso.

Curry + roti is a must-try! The two are a perfect combination. Their chicken curry is, by far, the best I have tasted. 🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒

I was not expecting this restaurant to be particularly good when I encountered it during an internet search of Indian restaurants in Cebu. My friend and I visited there and we were astounded by the superb quality of the food we received. The mixed vegetable curry was among the best dishes I had tried anywhere, and the rest of the food conveyed a strong authenticity that was very apparent. The food was delectable, chock full of flavor and vibrant aromas. Clearly, the chef and manager know what they are doing. This ranks as the best Indian restaurant I have been to in the Cebu area. They also stock Yellow Tail wine in their liquor fridge, I plan to have some of that next time I arrive there. All in all, my experience at this restaurant was splendid.

One cannot argue the authenticity as the dishes are actually prepared by the Indian family. I think this place serve both northern and southern flavours. Delicious!

A well cooked indian meal finally available in cebu. Though the traffic in this city is really bad. Took us 1 hr from mango avenue. But if you wanna eat good indian food, this is the place to be.
The service here is a little lousy, with only 1 waiter cum manager visible. We visited during lunch hours. But totally worth the taste never mind the lousy service.

I’ve enjoyed eating here several times over the past couple years - their food and service are great! I ask for extra spicy Chicken Tikka Marsala on basmati rice - it’s fantastic! The owner is friendly and often stops by to say hello - try this place for your Indian cravings!

All I can say is: if you want an Indian resto with really good food, a great rustic setting with a dining area where you can smoke, and pleasant service, then Cherry's The Spice is the perfect place for you.

My fiance knows I love Indian food so he took me here. We had paneer tikka masala (cottage cheese tofu with tomato-based gravy) and mutton curry, with butter naan. We got really stuffed and satisfied. The waitress was very friendly, and upon entering, you are immediately served with a pitcher of water.

Definitely a must-try and must-frequent! 👌👍

I am now totally inlove with Indian food! Thanks to my bae😝 I don't like the ambiance though, its also hot inside and serving time takes about half an hour. But when it comes to flavour, its very rich and creamy 🤗 definitely coming back. Well this is my go to resto when im craving for spicy foods

Food was excellent... we asked for very spicy and got it. For two of us, we had paneer tikka masala, butter chicken, rice, and garlic naan. There were definitely leftovers to take home! Our meal ended with two steaming cups of chai. The one disappointment was the atmosphere... it didn't feel like India at all (except for the Telugu news station playing in the background).

The food was great, the chef was also friendly. We ordered chicken biryani, shahi paneer, plain naan and of course their tea. Their paneer was a winner and i love their naan as well coz it was not that oily however their tea though lacks flavor, not sure but maybe because I'm a tea person. Overall, the experience was great.

Im not really a fan of indian cuisine but if you're looking for an authentic one, this place is a must visit.
I recommend everyone to try their Dosa and Tea, its really good.

The place is ok. The service is ok.
The food is the best of it's kind you'll find here in Cebu. If you're fond of their aromatic spices, then this is it. For first timers I highly recommend the following:
#1 Mutton Saagwala ⭐ (Trust me)
#2 Boiled Egg Curry
#3 Aloo Gobi Curry

Paired with:
#1 Basmati Rice (not plain, has spices)
#2 Chapati

Would I go back here?
- Yes in 2 weeks or so.

Finally "Dosa" arrives in Cebu! It was a news delivered much delayed but one which got me dialing the restaurant number immediately for reservations. My first visit here was last year when my husband and I ordered dosas, extra sambar, mutton biryani, mutton curry, idli (not available), naan, lassi....like two people starving for South Indian food. And we were not disappointed! Next visits I tried other items (and Dosa of course). After experiencing various Indian restaurants in Cebu, I would say 'the Spice' is closest to authenticity. Only minus is staff. In my last two visits my table tasted spoilt potato fillings and (dare)mentioned it to the waitress who just gave us a bad look and said 'no it's fresh' 😊. That was the end of my love story with deliciousness..

The authentic Indian food experience is there! Nice service and delicious food with decent choice of vegan dishes. If you don't know what to order ask the waitresses, they know perfectly the menu and can guide you upon your preferences. Bon appetit ;)

If you are looking for a place to enjoy Indian food then you should head down to The Spice in Banilad. The last time I was there I had samosa and beef masala with chapati and butter naan. It was a good meal. We were pretty happy.

Just when we thought we know Indian food, we were wrong! This is the real deal!

We've been searching for an authentic Indian restaurant and we know the search is over. We ordered something we thought we are familiar with but we were schooled real good! 

We ordered Chicken Biryani - 1/4 chicken (leg and thigh) with a generous amount of amazing basmati rice which was cooked in a way I never had before. A lot of aromatics that waked my senses. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the spices were spot on! The serving of rice is good enough for two that we ordered Chicken Tikka Masala to pair with it. Great sauce, nice cook on the chicken and you can choose the level of spiciness - which we always go for mild to medium. To tame the spiciness, make sure to order their Lassi :)

Although the place needs to be kept better, over all, the experience was wonderful and we definitely recommend this place for people who love spices and aromatics.

Really happy that I finally found a decent Indian restaurant here in Cebu! Had the Paneer Butter Masala, Naan, Mango Lassi and the Chicken Tikka and it was all good and very filling. Since I brought my 3 year old with me, I also ordered some french fries and that too was esquisite as they also added a few spices to make it more "Indian." When we entered the restaurant, we entered the wrong entrance so we were welcomed by a strong aroma of spices and cheap looking seats similar to what you see at Larsian. Good thing the waitress brought us to the airconditioned room where most guests were seated and Indian statues and pictures could be found. They also played a cute Bollywood movie wherein the waitress had no idea what the title was, plus there were no English subtitles. This could either be good or bad thing because instead of catching up with each other, me and my friend talked about how cute the actors were and busily googled what the movie was, which we later found out was entitled, 2 states. I heard from other friends that their service was quite slow during their visit but for us, it was just like any other restaurant; however we did ate there for lunch. Bravo staff of The Spice!

Happy to find a a good Indian restaurant. Food tastes great, with a good selection of Indian dishes. Serving sizes are good for sharing between two or three friends. Their Mango Lassi tastes great, highly recommended. Their naan is served nice and warm, and their vegetarian dishes are good. Would definitely go back.
