Food 1

Mutton pepper fry Net −1

“This is an edit to my above review. Ordered again today after my 5 star previous review. Ordered Mutton Sukha, Mutton pepper fry and chicken 65. Chicken 65 was with bone in. Big disappointment. Mutton in both dishes was like rock. Couldn't even bite it!”

Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 6

Avoid Rush. Visit outside peak periods if possible: the small dining room can become packed easily.

Allow Time. Leave room for a wait, particularly if you value freshly prepared food; one seafood-thali visit took some time.

Common Concerns

Small Space

The dining room is small and can fill up quickly, so it may feel cramped during busy periods.

Possible Wait

Some visits involved waiting for food, even though one reviewer felt the delay reflected fresh preparation.

The Bottom Line

Ice n Spice is a compact seafood restaurant in Oud Metha for Mangalorean, Goan-influenced and Indo-Chinese cooking. The strongest reason to visit is the coastal menu: fish thali, prawns ghee roast, neer dosa and fish fry appear repeatedly in the reviews. Chicken gassi, chicken sukka and biryani also receive specific praise, while Indo-Chinese choices such as noodles, soup and dimsums give groups some flexibility.

The thalis are a practical choice when you want a filling meal rather than a single plate. One reviewer described the special seafood thali as a steal at AED 28, and another praised its fried masala sole as fresh and delicious. Seafood portions can be generous too, with a kingfish tawa fry singled out for its size.

Customers commonly describe the food as freshly prepared, though that can mean waiting a little longer. Expect a small, casual room that may fill up quickly, not a spacious dining setting. Cleanliness, a warm homely atmosphere and courteous service are recurring positives.

Ask for guidance on spice levels and dish choices, especially if this is your first Mangalorean meal. There is one clear caution: a repeat order found the mutton unusually tough, and another diner felt dine-in pricing compared poorly with Noon delivery.
