Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Ordered a take away. One of the more expensive ones in Marple. No care with the food. Bland and watery. Tiger prawns were little frozen cheap prawns. Chapati were raw in centres. Rice was like microwave rice. In the bin. Avoid and go to Gulchan...take away. Sorry I tried this place.More

Original and well balanced menu, including a good choice of vegetarian and fish dishes. The menu advertises that food is cooked without excessive oil — and the result is a meal that is satisfying but not at all heavy. Unusually, the dessert menu has a...very good kulfi ice cream, in an attractive pot that you can take home if you ask nicely. This has become one of our go-to restaurants in Marple.More

After the horrendous and tragic events that beset the team at Marple Spice, we were sad but not surprised when it closed for a while this summer. So excited then when it reopened tonight, complete with online takeaway booking. Of course the new systems meant...a very slight delay in our order, but the 20% offer and AMAZING fresh food more than made up for it, which I’m hoping the rude and unreasonable customer before me will have realised. Friendly staff, clean surroundings and beautiful food. Dare I say even better than before? Thank you Marple Spice. We’ve had a lovely meal.More

Unfortunately rather tasteless curries, rock hard onion bhajis and thin stale tasting naan bread. Didn’t seem freshly cooked, won’t return.

Had a take away for the first time on Saturday night; we normally eat in the restaurant but these are strange times - the food was as good as ever. Delicious starters (my favourite is the vegetarian platter), main courses lovely and hot and the...naan breads fresh as always. Will definitely be using the take away service again but can't wait until life returns to normal and we can visit the restaurant again.More
