Applespice Restaurant

We ordered apple spice catering for 2 major Tamil student association events this year and our students loved the food (chili chicken Kothu and veggie cream pasta) ! Will definitely order from here again!

Positive: quick to answer phone orders & food was tasty.

NEED TO IMPROVE : efficiency in clearly taking orders; had to call twice to make sure the order was correct! Did not mention that extra fee is charged for credit or debit card payments!
When I got there to pick up the order, the cashier did not understand English & kept saying that he had to charge me extra $5 fee if paying with my DEBIT card!!!
What a scam!!
Chicken pasta had tasty sauce however lacked chicken pieces!!
Overall not a very disappointing experience.

Great food here

Food was great and great services 👌

My (family's) recent experience at Applespice was nothing short of a culinary disaster. We ordered variety of foods for take out, total cost $136. The main course, Kottu Rotti, was overcooked, dry, used wrong masala powder (too much fenugreek + chilies) and resembled something more suited for non-human. I grew up Kattankudy /Batticaloa where Kottu Rotti originated during early 1970. I knew what would be the taste, so expected it should be similar, or close at least, but this was terrible. At end of the day I realized that it was my fault choosing the Applespice since there are many tamil restaurants in Steels/Markham area to choose. Please 'don't judge a book by it's cover'. thanks

I will give them Zero stars. They advertise something on their website and when we go in person they don't honour it. When I'm trying to ask for something alternative for seafood curry a person comes out with an attitude and tells the person to taking the order that they won't make seafood Kothu. I will not return to these establishments when the customer isn't respected. I felt really disrespected and they didn't care.

We ordered chilli chicken kothu roti from here and we got pork instead. I don’t eat pork or any other meat besides chicken so this was really disappointing.

Delicious food and great service

The butter chicken patties here are to die for.
The service is satisfactory. Only complaint is that I wish they had AC in the summer while we wait for our order.

Butter chicken patty is good. Tried the chilli chicken kothu yesterday and it was disgusting. 🤮 waste of money as we threw the whole thing out

I'm in Oshawa but any time theres a party, doesnt matter where, Ill make sure I pick up a tray of their pasta or get someone else to pick it up (if Im hosting). Have been doing this for the past 3 years at least. There pasta is phenomenol. Not the ketchup pasta (sweet and mild) that you get from all restaurants (be it italian or not; its like all they do is open that can of tomato sauce and plop it on their pasta). Applespice's pasta has real flavor and a wonderful kick depending on the spice level you ask for. Always tell them how many people you're serving, their recommendations never go wrong. I can spend $50 here and serve about 8-10 people so portion sizes are really good for the price as well.

Disappointing Experience with Rude Staff

I had a really unpleasant experience at this takeout restaurant. The staff was rude from the start and seemed like they couldn’t care less. They didn’t pay attention to my order and I ended up waiting an unusually long time for my food. It was clear from their expressions that they were annoyed and didn’t want to be there.

To top it off, they failed to warn me that the food was extremely hot. I ended up burning my hand badly when I picked it up, which caused the food to spill everywhere. Overall, the lack of professionalism and care was shocking.

I recently visited Apple spice, and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. I had called twice to confirm my order and the pickup time for 5:30, but when I arrived at 5:40, my order was still not ready.
The person who took my order had an incredibly rude attitude. Instead of acknowledging the delay, they insisted that I should have called to confirm again, despite the fact that I had already done so. This level of customer service was frustrating and unprofessional. I expected a much better experience, especially after confirming everything beforehand. I won’t be returning anytime soon

I recently ordered and tried their butter chicken patties, chicken and shrimp pasta, and mutton kotturoti. Everything was delicious and packed with flavor! Each dish had its own unique twist that made the meal memorable. Highly recommend checking this place out for a satisfying takeout experience!
