Great Pad Thai and service except that I had to leave the restaurant and find ATM to pay cash, after being told by staff (after my food was ordered and on its way) EFTPOS not working.

Approximate cost: $20

Some of the dishes here are more expensive than other Thai restaurants. The service was very slow even though there weren't many customers that night. The food was very good.

Keeping up the good food at affordable prices.
Come here for decent Asian meals, but don't expect to be swept off your feet. But for the price point, it's pretty good

For a quick and simple Asian meal place, this place doesn't disappoint. The meals are quick and simple and good enough. You wish they had a little more opulent interior as it's in a decent location. Makes the place feel a bit cheap.
But it's all functional and serviceable.

Yum! That about covers it. This place serves up some delicious decent food and is priced very reasonably.

We usually start with salt and pepper squid and chicken satay skewers for entrees. I recently tried the sizzling mongolian lamb for mains and my girlfriend tried the sizzling chicken. Absolutely delicious, full of flavour and the meat was so tender. As usual we finished off sharing a dessert - banana fritter and ice-cream.

Staff are always friendly and prompt with service, a nice relaxing restaurant serving some delicious food.

What can I say. Visited here on Monday 29 December for the first time after visiting someone at RAH.
Although they forgot our entrees, we reminded them after finishing the mains and was well worth the wait and also the only reason they don't get any 5 stars.
Taken to our table by lovely young lady who later took our order of pandan chicken and vietnamese cold rolls. Approved of the chicken not the rolls.
And tried to order 2 Japanese Udon.
This young waitress knew her stuff and encouraged us to try the Rundle Noodle as well as the Japanese Udon. i.e share.
5 mins later got our mains. She wasn't wrong. Both dishes were flavoursome and to die for.
Eat the Rundle Noodle although mild, still full of punch first and finish off with the Japanese Udon which was gorgeously mild and apart from udon noodles and bok choy had 2 mussels, 2 scallops, 2 prawns, 4 pieces of squid and egg. I know egg not mentioned in the menu and as big brother is allergic, I ate the egg bits, it was gorgeous.
As I mentioned we ate entree as main and the pandan chicken was the best I have ever tasted and I've tasted quite a few.
Don't order the cold rolls unless you enjoy bland.
We have already decided what we are having on our next visit which is substituting the satay chicken for the cold rolls and vietnamese minced pork noodles for the rundle noodles. Both VERY acceptable substitutes according to our waitress.
Including soft 3 soft drinks, I paid about $60. Excellent value as far as we were concerned. Keep it up guys

January 14 2014. Captain's Log
For lunch, we dined at this place called Spices. It was on a street commonly known to locals at Rundle Street. Quite unassuming.
It was a fairly warm day, being the middle of summer and they had their doors wide open. They could have used a bit more of the ole air conditioning. However, works for some people.

The meals here were quickly prepared and quite the norm for a Westernised Chinese cafe. Nothing wrong with a bit of good slightly greasy Chinese food. Nothing amiss.

The patrons of this establishment seemed happy to be dining and the hosts watched with little attention as we devoured our rations. However, they were happy to receive the small fee they charged for these meals.

Shall we come upon this street again in our travels, I'm sure I shall keep an eye out for this shop.

Approximate cost: $inexp

Not a big restaurant but the atmosphere is quite nice. I went their with a few friends for dinner, ordered sizzling beef and green curry. Both dishes tasted good and the quantity was good too. Friend ordered a glass of wine, there are many to choose from. Service is average.

Having to eat their lunch specials at least once in a while makes me crave their seafood laksa. Have a try! Its worthwhile. The environment and service is great and definitely affordable.

Approximate cost: $9.90

Rundle spices provides an easy going atmosphere for the diner, along with fast service, quality food at an affordable price. I have eaten here quite a few times due to those qualities previously listed and have never been disappointed. I especially like the fact that they have lunch time specials, which keeps me coming back for more!

I feel that the lunch special is very affordable and nice. Their laksa and tom yam is awesome. Service is fast even though its lunch hour and the restaurant is full of patrons.

I have eaten a few times at this restaurant despite usually liking to try a new place. The waiters have been very courteous and eager to help even if they are sometimes a little inexperienced. The food has always been rather tasty, and I am quite fussy about this. It is much better than most Asian restaurants I personally have tried in Adelaide. It is not expensive and worth the extra couple of dollars over the cheapest Asian restaurant in town.

Approximate cost: $18

Their signature dish 'Rundle Spices' noodles, was a real winner at $12.50. My daughter ordered the green curry chicken, and was delighted with it. They have lunch specials, and are popular for business people and uni students alike. Fast service. Delicious food. Returning soon.

This is a great noodle place for a not too expensive meal. They are always generous with their servings and all the dishes I have had were very tasty. This is not a premium restaurant, however you can't fault it for what it is :)

Lovely food - inexpensive, quick (perfect for the movies up the road!) and of a much better quality than many of the thai restaurants around the traps. Definitely recommend the Roti!

Went there for laksa a few weeks ago. Wouldn't be the best laksa around but reasonable and conveniently in the city hub. Great atmosphere and customer service!

They always have monday to fridays lunch specials for only$7.90. Have a great selection of asian food but only the rundle spices noodles and rundle spices fried rice are above average. Otherwise, it's just a cheap place to have a filling lunch in the city.

Approximate cost: $8
