Great food, friendly staff. Recommend to all people looking for a change of pace from Americanized cuisine. Different levels of spice available making it suitable for all.

Like a hug from an old friend, Spice Hut's offerings are familiar and warm. This is one of my go-to places to eat. Our most recent visit to Spice Hut was on Thursday. Whiskey and I, preparing to go see some live music downtown Campbell River, stopped in for a dinner.
Spice Hut is a small franchise Indian restaurant, with three locations on Vancouver Island and six in total across western Canada. And while I'm not familiar with the other locations, the one here is quite consistent with the food. The only variance is the spice level, which seems to change on a whim depending on the mood of the cooks that day. Sometimes I will order a dish with a medium level and I sweat and struggle to get through the meal (I have no aversion to hot food, I often go out of my way to indulge in it, in fact) while other times it has just a trace of warmth. The flavours are always bang on, however. Seasoned perfectly, (which is good because you wont find salt or any other seasonings to adjust your food on the table) this Indian food is rich and flavourful. It's not exactly what I would would call Indian home cooking, but it's not some kind of western fusion either, it's somewhere in between, Indian cuisine for western palettes, with generous use of cream, garlic and somewhat surprisingly beef.
Wonderful Service, Fantastic Food. The staff of the Spice Hut in Campbell river more then deserve an excellent review, the food is excellent, the best Indian food I have ever had, and being English I have eaten a lot of it! Their efficient, friendly and go the extra mile to provide fantastic service.
Although I usually do not prefer eating at chain restaurants Spice Hut is top notch. I've eaten a lot of Indian and the food here is awesome
First time - will go back. We went to the Spice Hut for a mid-afternoon lunch/dinner on Saturday (Jan 11). The restaurant used to be a west coast grill, so the décor is definitely not "Indian", but it works - kind of a fusion feel, and the open kitchen is a very nice touch. We ordered two meat dishes, one veg dish, one order of rice and one naan. We had LOTS left to take home - dinner the next night. Two people could easily have two main dishes, not three, with a naan and one rice order, and be well fed. Had one beer (good selection of Indian beer) each, and with tip - $77. Very tasty - highly spicy. We like "heat", but in this case "medium" is as high as we would go; and in fact the "mild-medium" would be even better - all the flavour, with manageable spiciness. Hope they do well.
Wow...so delicious. I was worried it was going to be another westernized indian restaurant. Not so..the flavors reminded me of being in india again. The waitresses the owner and the chef made me fel so welcome.Cant wait to go again.
Wow wow and wow. Loved the food. Fresh crispy and just can't get enough are just a few ways I would describe my experience after having take out! Can't wait to have time to go sit down and eat. I know where my husband and I want to go eat out next date night.
The food and atmosphere was great; I had expected a much smaller, fast casual style restaurant but it turned out bigger and better. The service was friendly, and eager to ensure that she could cater to my dietary needs. Loved the Chana curry.
Awesome food! A gem.
We came back a second time when we returned to Campbell River and the food was just as good or better than the first time.
Food was really good, chicken korma and Kadahi paneer , chai (Indian tea) is must try
Ordered a small MILD butter chicken, received a medium butter chicken with a large family sized rice!! They need to listen better to the person ordering!!
Now I have enough rice for a week a butter chicken that is too spicy for me to enjoy! What a disappointment!
EDIT: they contacted me to apologize for the error on my order and have given me a credit for my next order! Great customer service, thank you!!
Amazing food to cleanse and rejuvenate body and spirit. Was out camping and fishing for the previous days leading up to the feast. Due to poor diet on camping trip I found myself ballooning. I choose to go with the highest spice level for maximum rejuvenation. I had an early flight out of comox the next morning. Unfortunately the airport bathroom facilities weren't able to capacitate the heights of rejuvenation I had reached and began to over flow. In fears of getting blacklisted I changed my outer layer of cloths to go incognito on the chance of being pointed out by the heroic cleaning staff to security. I'm not sure whom was more embarrassed me or my traveling companion he moved three rows away from me and told me to seek out help.
Perfect place for a stopover dinner in Campbell River. Large, spacious and clean. Portions were huge and flavourful - and service was really friendly. The mutter paneer and chicken masala were both spiced well, and the garlic naan was fluffy and warm. Excellent dinner and we hope to come back!
Consistently flavourful food and friendly, excellent service. Pick your spice level and make it as mild or as spicy as you like.
