Afternoon Tea At The Grove in Three Rivers

We came here to celebrate my mums retirement. All were very accommodating - the food and service was great. I would highly recommend Madhu’s !

We had the non veg & veg afternoon tea which were both nice. Good to have a varied selection of savoury dishes rather than just sandwiches. Nice selection of teas. Service was really good.

We had a lovely Indian afternoon tea to celebrate diwali.

The staff were lovely & knowledgable.The dining area was welcomingThe food was beautifully presented & tasted amazing, lovely night thank you x

We always celebrate our occasions of family's and friends in the Grove Madhu's. The team led by Hind and Salma and staffs are always welcoming friendly and helpful. The food is amazing and lovely ambiance. we have know of Madhu's for the last 40 years starting from Southall . thanks

Staff were attentive, food was great and plentiful. Lovely ambience, the room was decorated beautifully. Food was presented nicely and attention to detail was perfect.

Faultless from beginning to end. Security staff, reception, welcoming, service and food all excellent. Quite expensive but worth it as a treat. Will definitely be back for a special occasion.

Took my daughters here for a birthday treat. Beautiful location, friendly and efficient staff. Food was delicious and plentiful.

The high chai experience was just amazing. I treated my friend there for her 60th birthday and she loved it. The food was very nice & fresh. The staff - Mansi & Shubham looked after us very well. Thank you guys x

I took my mother to Madhu's for her 90th birthday as she had a champagne chai tea voucher. It was a pleasant enough experience, except the food, apart from the cakes and scones, was far too spicy. When the bill came my mother presented the voucher. The waiter went away and there was some chatter between him and another waiter. After about ten mins later he came back and said there was an additional £19 to pay. This was strange, I thought, as the voucher was for a champagne tea and that is what we had. He went on to explain something about the code on the voucher and that they were a separate entity to the Grove. I was very surprised with this response and told him that we would not pay anymore as the voucher was for what we had. He then went away and came back a second time with the amount that the voucher was for ...I told him that as this was a gift it was highly inappropriate - the voucher had no monetary value. I wrote to the Grove and got a prompt response thanking me for bringing the matter to their attention as this should not have happened and they would do some more staff training! The manager of the Madhus wrote offering us another tea at 50% discount. This was not about the money! This was about spoiling my mother's birthday treat with a very embarrassing discussion about money that went on for far too long. I hope this does not happen in the future to any other patrons as it was an unpleasant experience. Had the Grove offered us a pot of tea and scones that would have sufficed. But we will not be returning.

Delicious Food wonderful staff and amazing hospitality lively ambience

My wife and I visited Madhu’s at The Grove and the service provided specifically from Sana (Hope I’ve spelt it correctly) was excellent, very welcoming professional and friendly. The food was excellent we look forward to dining with you again in the near future.

I was a guest at a family birthday. Whilst other members of our group may have had a different experience, it was not a good experience for me. Most of the food was far too hot (spicy) and gave me a severe reaction. I was expecting mild to medium spice, but this was not the case. We had the vegetarian tasting menu as a group decision, as due to the size of our group (10), we were forced to order either a tasting menu (£80 per head) or a set menu (£70 per head). I feel that this is a rip off, as I am basically being forced to order food that I do not want to eat and I would never choose to order. It was a painful (literally) experience and I suffered for it all night with acid reflux, bloating, coughing and shortness of breath. Also, tap water should readily be available. I kept having to ask several times. They did give me a complimentary Rubicon mango juice, which was a nice gesture. Also, they made a mistake with the second course. Half our table got served the second course whilst the rest of the group was kept waiting! Out of all the different courses, the first course which was avocado dip and poppadoms was the nicest course. Unfortunately, it all went downhill after that! Ten people is not such a large group, so we really should have had the option to order from the menu. I quite simply would have ordered one naan bread, a portion of yogurt and their mildest curry and a juice. That is all I would have ordered, but the host had to pay £80 a head instead! Terrible way to make money from people and leads to terrible food waste! There is nothing I hate more than food waste and excess. Nevertheless, we had a good time because of the love, laughter and joy within our group and the ambience in the restaurant was nice, but this is a restaurant I would not visit out of choice and if I ever have to attend in the future for a family occasion, I would eat at home beforehand and just have a drink (if allowed) or order a children's meal, although I am doubtful that they would even allow me as an adult to order a children's meal, so I would be really stuck!

I booked the High Tea for my friends birthday and we had a wonderful time today. There was a lovely selection of food and it was such a tasty menu! The customer service was fantastic and the staff were so accommodating and made us feel welcome. Would definetly go back and recommend! Thank you

I had previously had the afternoon tea which my husband and I enjoyed. However I have since changed my review based on an awful experience with Hind. I had a booking for the afternoon tea which I had to re arrange as my friend had covid. I called and spoke to Hind who was not only unhelpful but was condescending and rude. She told me my booking was for in over a weeks time (this was incorrect) but I said well in that case please just cancel it as it was more than 24 hours notice. I planned to re arrange once my friend was better. I then got an £80 charge taken out of my card because Hind didn’t listen to my name and instead was referring to someone with a totally different name (it just also started with an S) she canceled someone else’s booking and I got charged for cancelling mine as it was indeed the date I had thought. She then again had such an attitude with me and acted like she was doing me a favour when trying to refund this charge. I was clearly never trying to get out of my booking and only ever wanted to re arrange it. I will now never come back here again as this customer service with Hind was appalling.

Poor customer service. Charged me for a booking I requested to simply move in advance due to an illness. Appreciate there is a notice period but no compassion showed and the staff and general manager were extremely rude to us.

Awful customer service. Won’t be going back.

Really recommend, everything about the experience was 10/10

Beautiful food and beautiful atmosphere. It was our first time going Madhus on a recommendation from family and it did not disappoint. The vibe inside was really nice and cosy and the food was sent out promptly too. Our favourite was the crème brulee style Julab jamun dessert! Definitely will come back again

We tried the tasting menu on our visit celebrating a special occasion. The food was quite exceptional! The service was of the highest standard and the staff and kitchen handled our dietary requirements with an exemplary level of professionalism. The atmosphere contributes to the special experience at Madhu's. Luxury experiences don't come cheap, but I would nevertheless highly recommend Madhu's for a memorable night!

The quality of the food was truly excellent, from the starter to the dessert (which however could have been a little more "abundant"). The only partial note of demerit was the wine, given the level of the restaurant I would have expected something better. The excellent cocktails however. High level service and courteous and friendly staff.

Food was average. Restaurant was smart and comfortable. Service ok. Filthy door to kitchen. Standards have slipped massively from our previous visit.

My wife and I had a lovely dinner here on our first night at the grove, food and service both excellent.

We came for the second time to Madhus at Grove and as always we loved everything about it… from food to service to ambience everything is 10/10.. highly recommended..

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff but quality of food did not match. I have had better Indian food at many other restaurants for cheaper price and nicer decor. Quality of food needs to improve the beautiful location the grove hotel standards.

Absolutely fantastic experience. Great staff, beautiful environment, incredible food and service all round. We took one of our Entasis Partners Team here to celebrate his promotion. His face says it all!

Always had their food at weddings and so to eat at their restaurant was lovely. Ash our waiter was excellent in explaining our options and was even more glad to hear we could mix and match our thali. Food was delicious as well as the drinks. The only feedback I'd have is the toilets weren't very clean considering it being The Grove. Overall love that they acknowledged the notes on the booking and made my birthday special. Thank you!

Formal Complaint Regarding Substandard Service and Food Quality I am writing to formally express my profound disappointment with the service and quality of food my family and I experienced during our recent visit to your restaurant. We had chosen your establishment to celebrate a special occasion—a birthday—and from the outset, the experience was far from satisfactory. Firstly, despite arriving on time for our reservation, we were told to wait without being offered a designated waiting area, leaving us standing awkwardly. This lack of basic hospitality set a negative tone for the evening. The quality of food served was extremely poor, far below the standards one would expect for the prices charged. Additionally, the service was abysmal. I had to request water four times before it was finally brought to the table. Throughout our meal, no staff member attended to our table to check if we needed anything further, demonstrating a clear lack of attentiveness and professionalism. Despite indicating in my booking that it was a special occasion and reminding the staff upon arrival, the acknowledgment of our celebration was embarrassingly minimal. A small biscuit with a candle was presented after a reminder, which was neither thoughtful nor adequate for a birthday celebration. Given the exorbitant prices charged, the overall experience was nothing short of a rip-off. This level of service and food quality is unacceptable, and I believe it warrants attention from local authorities. As such, I will be formally lodging a complaint with our local MP regarding the pricing and service standards at your establishment. I hope you take this feedback seriously and address these issues promptly to prevent other patrons from undergoing a similarly disappointing experience. Amir

The whole experience was outstanding from the beginning to the end. The service was exemplary; the food was exquisite and it was superb value for money. The quantity and variety of the food was just right and it was a wonderful experience all round.

dined here with a few friends at the hotel for dinner this evening and i have had diahorea and nausea please help

Celebrated our anniversary here today with the family. Once again, amazing food and wonderful service. Thank you

A very good experience going for afternoon tea at Madhu's. A variety of menus to choose from. The staff were very pleasant and ensured all needs were taken care of.

Very enjoyable evening meal, chose non vegetarian taster meal. Authentic food with superb taste and quality. Can’t comment on drinks as we chose water. The bill was not cheap but you get what you pay for. Decor lovely although entrance to restaurant uninspiring. Staff attentive. Would like to return for vegetarian afternoon tea soon.

Wonderful atmosphere but staff especially Gujarat i staff including few names “vaibhav” are not professional at all. When you ask for something they will bring it very lately or pretend as if they don’t understand then in Gujarati guy like Vaibhav will say “don’t bring it here!!” Common I understand Gujarati Too!! Kadhai Paneer was Showery. Please visit your own branch at Mayfair and you will be astonished with customer service and the taste of food. Stop fooling with your name in the Watford.

Madhu's at The Grove provided a truly five star experience. The ambience was elegant,amazing food bursting with flavour. We will certainly be returning soon.

This place is somewhat overrated - specifically with how expensive the food is. Nice atmosphere & very attentive staff, but I've definitely had better butter chicken and fish & paneer in places far far cheaper. Children's menu options were also really underwhelming (they referred to some basic & mild chicken tikka pieces as butter chicken again - my 9yo didn't find it hard to tell the difference).

Dhruv and Lucky were such wonderful waiters. Dhruv especially made our experience just perfect. Food was delicious.

We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing and all of the food was absolutely stunning and the wine was delicious. The service was outstanding. We will definitely be back to try more

Big fan of The Grove, visited many times over the years. First time at Madhu's and was very disappointed with the food, service and atmosphere. Over priced for a birthday high tea. Would not recommend.

Amazing afternoon tea at the grove. Indian inspired but probably the best afternoon tea I’ve ever experienced. Thank you to Ash and his team . Will definitely be returning and have spread the word already!

Yet another amazing dinner experience. Fab food and drinks. Ash was exceptional with his service. Had a wonderful time with family.

The High Chai afternoon tea was an amazing experience, providing traditional sandwiches and scones, but alongside Indian flavours and spices in some of the other items served. Everything worked together wonderfully, and the choice of teas was excellent. The welcome drink of iced tea was superb.

Food and service is exceptional. Would definitely recommend Madhu's!

Madhus was really special! We came here for a birthday and it was perfect. Food was spectacular and extremely flavourful, and not too oily like some other Indian places. The setting is gorgeous as it’s on private land owned by the hotel so it feels quite special driving in. The waitress was fab and really helpful when choosing our orders. And to top it off, everything was quite reasonably priced, considering that it felt like quite an upmarket place. Would definitely recommend for a special occasion.

Our family visited Madhu’s at The Grove on Saturday evening to celebrate Mum’s special birthday - all the staff were so welcoming, kind and went over and above to make sure we had an incredible evening - a special thank you to Jeetu, Ash and Salma! The food was delicious, the decor and ambience was beautiful and the service was outstanding - we would highly recommend Madhu’s The Grove!

Wonderful evening. The menu selection is great and caters well for vegetarians. We were very well looked after. Thank you.

Excellent very attentive service, food was good with a slight twist and great flavours compared to regular afternoon tea.

Very very bland experience. Ordered a lot of different food items and nothing was spectacular or even remotely close to average. So disappointed. Ridiculously priced too. £7 for a poxy naan. It’s insulting. Went for a birthday dinner and spent so much money only to be fed food with average/below average flavour

Experienced a wonderfully tasteful (and very filling) afternoon tea here. Not your standard afternoon tea menu... This one was so much better. There was a great selection of sweet and savoury treats, which were included from their non-veggie, veggie and vegan menus. Excellent service from the staff too. My tea remained hot and topped up most of the time. ☕🍰 =⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A beautiful hotel with excellent 5 star service from friendly and professional staff. This was my first visit but I shall definitely be returning again and will be recommending to family and friends.

Pricey for food that was average at best. Portion sizes are tiny for what you are paying. Tea service was rushed and we were only given 2 hours to enjoy our tea. Had to also wait 50 mins for food. Needs a little improvement to meet Grove standards.

It is always a great experience visiting Madhu’s @The Grove. Today our wonderful server, Ash , took care of us. Kids and adults in the party were well attended and we had yet another memorable evening at The Madhu’s

The food were all delicious. The experience there was great too 🤤🤤

The restaurant is high-level, the service is super and Mr.Jitendra was very attentive. I would recommend this place for whomever is looking for quiet place. 🌷

Food was very spicy however service was good

Went for the high chai at the grove madhus. It was fantastic and the service was exceptionally good. Would like to recommend Salma who was excellent. The masala chai was to die for. The portion size was thought of really well and I was stuffed with everything and had actually left out two things which they kindly packed for me.

We had an incredible experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. The ambiance and decor added to the overall charm of the restaurant, creating a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff who made sure our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. I would highly recommend Madhus, Grove Hotel to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Can't wait to visit again!

Had a really good meal here with extended family, good food and quality environment to dine in.

Terrific food and service was amazing, the flavours in the food are just excellent and authentic. Thank you to Ash and Jeet for a wonderful experience

The service was great, the food was fine, the interior of the restaurant is top notch as expected of the Grove. There was no extra clean plate for the scones, we weren’t given little spoons for the desserts/ cakes. Scones were warm and soft, very good. But we weren’t given fruit scones which was odd, only plain scones provided. The sandwiches were ok, the little toasts and pies were good, and the dessert was lovely. The Vegetarian option was better than I expected. The Chicken Samosa was really tasty. Quality of food could be better as it was pretty pricey, £45 per person with extra service charge. Overall it’s good. Thank you.

Afternoon tea: I was expecting a much more higher standard of service we were not provided with any dessert spoons. I am expecting so requested a cushion on the gentleman that was serving us had to go and ask permission! Also the food was very basic considering it was high chai experience, the masala chai was bitter like it was brewing for a long time. If you’re after a relaxing afternoon tea experience this is not the place very loud and you can barely hear the person next to you. The only thing you can top up is the scones basket you get one masala sandwhich serving and the rest of the tea is basic sandwiches etc that you can not top up.

Absolutely rubbish. Afternoon tea was a tasteless experience. Sandwiches worse than Supermarket sandwiches Indian flavours completely missing from the experience. Toilets worse than train station.

Quality venue mainly as it is in the Grove hotel grounds. Excellent service. Food wise - they are trying their luck - totally sub par taste to the afternoon tea!

One star experience at the five star “High chai” at Madhu’s at the Grove, Rickmansworth Honestly, I’m struggling to decide where to start with the details of our evening! It was a nightmare experience! The food was extremely disappointing and didn’t give any vibe of a five star restaurant. Forget about five star, I’m pretty sure that a local cafe would have offered a much better afternoon tea than what we served yesterday. The tea was cold and tandoori chai had no flavour! Sandwiches were minuscule and the wrap felt dry with minimal filling. I should have actually taken a picture of my friend’s wrap, it literally had NO FILLING - it seemed as if she was served edges of a long wrap in which the chef recklessly forgot to fill out the edges and didn’t bother checking that there we were served empty shells made out of wraps. The desserts were revolting! Dry, tasteless and lukewarm mango sundae that seemed to have been left out of the fridge for a long time before they were served to us. The chocolate cake bites felt stale! There were no flavours in any of the items of the afternoon tea. The only saving grace was palak patta chaat that seemed to have some flavour, although I’ve eaten much better chaat in other places. Another low point of the evening was our table which was next to a window - the breeze wafted the stench of a sewer which made a few of us really queasy! The food had left us so disgruntled and had quashed our hopes so much that we had no interest in mentioning the stench to anyone! We just wanted to eat whatever little was edible and leave! When my sister complained about the dirty ladies room, she was confronted by one of staff members about the washroom being spotless when the staff member had checked straight after my sister had used the facilities. She also challenged my sister by inviting to show her why she felt issues with the cleanlines but my sister blatantly refused to accompany the staff member because clearly, their standards of cleanliness were way lower than what we would normally expect in a good restaurant. So we just felt it would be vain to get into any unnecessary squabble with a discourteous staff member! By then, we’d already made up our minds that we weren’t ever returning to the restaurant. All in all, it was a second-rate experience and I don’t think I would recommend to any of my friends or family. However I would want to mention here that the busser/server assigned to our table helped with ensuring that our dietary needs were met but he couldn’t have made the food and ambience any better for us. I would give one star rating because of the service otherwise I would give zero rating to the overall experience!!

We went to Madhus with high hopes but were left disappointed with quite basic food for the high price, service was good but food not at all.

Madhu's restaurant is truly one of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been to. The moment you step in, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the tone for a wonderful dining experience. The staff are incredibly friendly and provide top-notch service, making you feel right at home. But the real star of the show is the food. It's clear that the chefs at Madhu's are masters of their craft, as every dish is bursting with authentic flavors and spices. From the fragrant biryanis to the creamy curries, each bite is a delight for the taste buds. If you're looking for a taste of India in a welcoming setting, look no further than Madhu's restaurant. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Delicious food, highly recommend the tasting menu. Excellent service and very attentive staff. A wonderful dining experience.

Top place for classy Indian! Ask took care of us. Thank you for our family dinner

We had dinner here whilst we stayed at The Grove. We were given the option of table at 6.30pm or 8pm with a 2 hour slot. We opted for 6.30pm. When we went in and also when we left half of the tables were empty. So we didn't understand the 2 hour slot squeeze. The service was fine but the food was basic especially considering the price of the dishes.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the Madhus tasting menu at The Grove Hotel, and I must say, it was an unforgettable culinary journey. What truly elevated the experience was the exceptional service provided by Hind and Salma. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. Hind and Salma went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our dining experience was perfect, from their attentiveness to their extensive knowledge of the menu. Now, let's talk about the food. Each course was a masterpiece, showcasing the richness and depth of Indian cuisine. The journey began with the Avocado & Mango Chutney accompanied by Poppadoms & Dips, setting the stage for what was to come. The second course featured a delightful array of Tandoori Salmon, Murgh Malai Tikka, and Lamb Chop, all served with a refreshing Minted Mango Salad. The flavours were vibrant, and the presentation was impeccable. Next, we were treated to a palate-cleansing Passion Fruit Sorbet before indulging in the Royal Thali. This quintessential Indian platter, featuring Murgh Makhani, Lamb Roganjosh, Prawn Moilee, and Dal Makhani, accompanied by Raita, Rice, Pickle, Salad & Mini Tandoori Naan, was a true feast fit for royalty. It was fascinating to learn that Madhu’s Royal Thali was commissioned for HRH King Charles's event at Windsor Castle, adding a touch of regality to our dining experience. To conclude the meal, we savored the Gajar Halwa & Almond Kulfi. The sweet halwa made from carrots, milk & cream, paired perfectly with the almond cream and Indian ice cream, leaving us with a lingering sense of satisfaction. Oh yes, let's not forget about Dark Chocolate Cremeux I think it was what we had which was simply divine. In summary, Madhus at The Grove Hotel offers not only an exquisite tasting menu but also a dining experience characterized by impeccable service and attention to detail. Hind and Salma's hospitality truly enhanced our evening, making it one to remember. I highly recommend Madhus for anyone seeking a culinary adventure infused with elegance and charm.

We had a great Valentine's day dinner at Madhu's. Absolutely the best Indian restaurant we've been. We'll definitely recommend. Great and staff and atmosphere. Plenty of parking. The only thing I would suggest is improving the entrance door. It fooled us thinking its a side door or something.

Overall great. Madhus are always nice places.. I just don't like to sit too close to people and found that on this occasion. Apart from that .. top notch

1st visit Our waiter Shubam I think that's how u spell it was lovely. Thank you for being so professional. Food is average to be fair. Drinks average Always wanted to try this place and can happily say for me it's a one time visit. Lovely staff Nice ambiance

On our doorstep but this was our first visit, great service and food, and overall a lovely experience, if a bit of a treat. We had the six course tasting menu, but will go back to try the main menu quite soon. Only two small issues, the entrance is outside of the hotel and we missed the door as it looks more like a service entrance when closed, needs better lighting and signage. One of our party later complained of feeling bloated, and not felt like that for a long time (since visiting an Asian eat all you can buffet) so may not be directly a consequence of Madhu. Will be back to check with different menu selection.

I had a wonderful experience at Madhus after booking to celebrate my husbands birthday. The service was fantastic. We were served by Jaswant, and he was incredibly attentive, professional and friendly. The food was amazing! I would highly recommend the chilli paneer and robata chops. Nothing could be faulted. This meal was our first time bringing our newborn to a restaurant, and the staff were lovely and ensured we had sufficient space for a pram and provided hot water to allow us to feed her too. Overall, I'd visit here again in a heartbeat and could not recommend it more. A huge thank you to Jaswant, for the fantastic service and helping us feel at ease on our first evening out with our baby!

The staff were unbelievably caring especially as the table was running late. I am gluten free and they were caring and on the ball to ensure I was served with the gluten free accompaniments similar to what others were served who had no allergies. Cannot fault anything about the service received. Salma, Hind and the other staff made it a very special evening for my husbands birthday

Nice place to celebrate or dine in on important occasions and meetings. Nice food. Only one issue, you cannot order a Thali for yourself unless everyone on the table orders a Thali.

Staff were very welcoming, very friendly, it was a really nice first time experience. The food was10/10. It was our anniversary and they really did make it special

Classy dining. Staff could do with showing a bit more personality

Couldn't ask for more...and highly recommend The Grove Hotel. We will certainly be back in the near future.

Delicious Six Coarse Festive Tasting Menu. Has been refurbished to beautiful and relaxing environment.

There are local curry houses serving similar or better food for literally half the price. None of the dishes were mind blowing which is what I'd expect at this price. You are paying for the atmosphere, and I don't think that's good value.

A lovely setting, fantastic food and service. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Madhus The Grove was an amazing experience with great food, perfect service, fabulous wines.....the decor and ambience to die for!! I would highly reccommend The Xmas Tasting Menu but make sure you go hungry!! Yes, it was a meal to remember!

Great birthday meal. We are all vegetarian, starters were excellent, main dishes could have been better

The venue is lovely, the service is excellent and the staff were very attentive to our needs. The food was very delicious and tasty. I really enjoyed my birthday meal at Madhu's and also enjoyed the birthday kulfi they gave me. It was a really lovely surprise.

Splendid Sunday lunch , enhanced by Aryan and his colleagues. Will book to go again in January. A place to celebrate 🍾. P.S Thank you for surprise anniversary 🎂

We booked madhus for a special occasion I called ahead to advise the restaurant. Although the staff were wonderful especially mansi I found the manager arrogant and who didn't even have the time or courtesy to wish my wife a happy birthday .. He certainly had time to see every non Indian customer and serve their table. When my wife aired her disappointment and dissatisfaction he became obnoxious and didn't accept his short comings.. just disgraceful

Overpriced and average food, average service, not worth it.

Went as part of a large group. Service was fantastic, incredibly attentive and sociable. Food was on another level. This, I believe, is true authentic Indian cuisine. All the dishes throughout the meal were perfect - incredible flavours and balance with spices. It's not a cheap meal, but it's fine dining at a very high standard. I would highly recommend a visit.

Disappointed with our visit to Madhu's. The food remains good but the service was definitely less attentive and warm than our past visits. Our table for 2, stuck in the middle of the floor in very very close proximity to other unfortunate couples made for an uncomfortable experience which afforded no privacy or relaxation. Being next to the constantly busy kitchen door made things even worse. Always a bad feeling when you go for a treat and then pay premium prices for a below average evening. Please don't cram the patrons in because they won't come back!

Delicious food, great ambience. Highly recommend.

The tasting menu is well worth the experience. The service was attentive and most items on the tasting menu were excellent. Great for a special occasion

Food was delicious, service was excellent and staff were truly help and extremely professional.

Love Madhu's at The Grove! Been twice for celebrations and each time the staff has made the evening special. On my last trip, Vishal, our waiter was extremely professional and took the time to make us feel welcomed and explained each of the dishes. Definitely recommend the tasting menu as the food is truly delicious and of high quality. Will definitely return again at some point in time!

We are extremely lucky that Mahdu’s opened a few years ago at the Grove and has maintained its excellent standard. The menu is interesting and creative, the food is delicious and the service is exceptional. They are respectful and attentive to food allergies and are always willing to adapt dishes to accommodate our tastes.

What a shame! This had the potential to be amazing, the venue is beautiful and the food was good but the service is short of 5 star. We went for a 40th birthday and the service was shocking, waiting to be served, poured out on drinks and waiting on between courses. It’s not worth the money, we sat in the private dining room and it’s like they forgot about us.

A really terrible experience at Madhu’s. We booked it for my father’s 60th birthday. The staff were inattentive, always having to call them over for water top ups or further orders. The food itself was extremely disappointing. We ordered all vegetarian items some of which were too spicy to eat. The raitha was just plain yogurt with a few pieces of cucumber - no spices or salt. One of the rice orders was cold. And to top it off, they had forgotten to place birthday balloons on the table which we’d dropped off in advance, and half way through our meal, a waiter remembered and brought them over. Embarrassing! Oh and we had to ask 3 times for the cake to be brought at the end of our meal to 2 different waiters. The bill was £300 and the food, service or atmosphere (we were in the back room which is basic and uninviting), was simply not worth it.

We were invited here for a birthday party the food wad Indian so started off with Kebabs chicken mogo and a mixed chat. This was followed by Rogan gosh a cooked chicken dish nans a veg ladies fingers rice and yoghurt this was then followed by a dessert of cake carrot halwa and kulfi. We had a private room so could play music extra. The service was good.

Was so disappointed with the food very bland I think they were more focused on the presentation then the taste. For how much they charge and what you expect in a place like the Grove it was gutting
