About

Chai & Spice is a hidden gem for authentic Durban-style Indian food. The curries are packed with flavor, and the on-site spice shop is a huge plus for home cooks. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, especially with the fireplace. While most love the food, some have noted that portion sizes can be small for the price, but the quality usually makes up for it.
