The menu had a good selection of dishes mainly South Goan.

I will certainly go back and thoroughly recommend anyone who likes there curry

The sign said Take Away but down the stairs we found a very cute restaurant. They are going to change the sign! The new Owners took over about 6 weeks ago and have some great ideas. They might add the option of bringing your own wine etc. into the restaurant without the corkage fee. A great idea and we will try that next time around. For now we ordered take away and it was just great. I always have Lamb Korma, Basmati rice and Nan bread with mango sauce. It was excellent,. My old Mum had a chicken curry and it was a big step up from the meals on wheels she is using these days! My husband had a lamb curry and loved it too. We will definitely make Spice King our Indian restaurant when we are in Billericay. Thanks guys and good luck.

Try the chicken chettinad, its spicy but full of flavour. They have some excellent house white wine to cool your mouth down.

Mia the owner greets all of his customers and will remember all of you names. The food is delicious and menu quite extensive. We have often had little extra side dishes bought up to our table for us to try. They are always experimenting with new food and value your opinions. After your gorgeous culinary experience, you will be presented with little glasses of Tia Maria and cream. We are always invited then by Mia to have another drink on the house. This is a large restaurant but most nights it is packed out. On Friday nights he has Elvis along to sing. At the end of the evening most people are up dancing. On Sundays there is a buffet but you can still order off the main menu. I totally recommend this place, you will be given a big warm welcome and then be in for a true curry feast. The prices are reasonable too. They do takeaways and you will always be offered a drink when you come to collect, there is a discount on takeaways. You must try this restaurant, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!
