It’s not bad but it’s not great. Had a variety of dishes that were all ok, just a bit bland in reality. Wasn’t a bad dish, however out of the 4 mains we had there wasn’t one that we thought was tasty. Naan bread was a bit burnt but not too much of a problem. All in all, was Ok and I’ve had quite a few worse in the surrounding area. It’s ok if you live locally and don’t fancy driving. Would give 3.5 if I could

I rarely write reviews but i have to say Akash is the best family run Indian restaurant I have been to. Perfect for a late night curry , I have been quite few times with my family and friends - I recommend the chicken tikka biryani and chicken jalfrezi it's mouth watering , spicy and delicious and the portions are perfect. The service is impeccable , Akash really did looked after us and I can see how the waiter's really care for there customers Thank you for being very welcoming and I can't wait to come back!!!

One of the best indian currys ive had in recent times. I was in town a friend was performing at the local theatre (Addams Family) Had time for dinner so was a choice between this and the chinese (Tims table) Chose this and oh boy.. was i happy i chose this... proper Indian food not the rubbish being served in central london... We had prawns and Madras, tandoori chicken.. their naan bread was done to perfection. Customer service was on point. Thank you Akash and will be back very soon again

The food here is amazing! I've been here lots of times and it has never failed me. From the excellent service from the waiters to the flavoursome food, you just can't go wrong with this place. I honestly can not choose a favourite dish. Everything was just amazing. Perfect place to go with family and friends.

Awful experience at the Akash, served meat instead of vegetables & were assured it was cauliflower before they realised it wasn’t (which was too late) we felt sick afterwards . Clearly no care or consideration for allergies in the kitchen, would not trust this food ever again, such a let down because we would have returned multiple times otherwise. Do not risk this restaurant if you are vegetarian.

Akash offers a tantalizing culinary experience that takes diners on a flavorful journey through the diverse regions of Bangladesh. From aromatic spices to vibrant colors, every dish tells a story of tradition and innovation. We started our culinary adventure with the classic appetizer, samosas, which were perfectly crispy on the outside and filled with a fragrant mixture of potatoes and peas. For mains, we savored the rich and creamy butter chicken, bursting with flavors of tomato, garlic, and fenugreek. The tender lamb curry, slow-cooked with aromatic spices, melted in our mouths and left us craving for more. Accompanied by fluffy naan bread and fragrant basmati rice, each bite was a symphony of flavors and textures. The service at Akash was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. From recommendations on menu selections to timely refills of water and naan, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and well taken care of.

There's a reason that this restaurant has been in Radlett since 1985. It has the best Indian food in the area. We have been overseas for a number of years and recently returned to Radlett, we were very pleasantly surprised to see that Akash had gone through a really nice interior renovation and that the food was still as good as we remembered it. Nice location, parking only a short walk away. Definitely recommend!

Overall a pleasant evening with staff responding quickly to requests. A well decorated room with good linens. Food nicely served but the chicken dishes we all had were quite chewy and I was surprised that the chicken tikka, normally served in large pieces straight from the tandoori oven, were small broken pieces. Portions were generally small. We were the last table to leave but they had already opened the front doors to let the chilly air in. Nothing out of the ordinary.

All I can say is what a find!Good friendly service and really tasty food - some of the best flavours I have encountered. Although not specifically on the menu, I asked for my favourite lamb saag balti and the restaurant was happy to prepare it for me. Excellent!It does get quite busy though - a sign of how good it is no doubt - so make sure you book in advance. I promise you won't be disappointed.

I'm a regular here and overall the food is good, the restaurant is clean and the staff relatively welcoming. This is apart from last night where I went to collect a takeaway. Having paid for my meal already, I decided to buy one of those large Cobra beers to go with it. Cost £4.95. I didn't have cash on me but offered a contactless card which i had just used to pay for the meal. Unbelievably the chap behind the bar responded that the minimum charge was £10. Another staff member was stood next to me (not sure whether staff or part owner) recognised me and said "don't worry you're a regular so have it on us" however upon hearing this the guy behind the bar in a sudden panic he was about to lose the £4.95, produced the card machine overruling his colleague and pointed out that the beer wasn't free. (The minimum charge miraculously disappeared) Overall a money grabbing trait I was not pleased to see....Goodwill would have gone a long way here as I said to the kinder one of the two that whilst I'm a regular now i may not be in the future!!!

Shocking! Will never go back. My companion and I asked for a jug of water while we were deciding what to eat. We received a bottle and one glass. Asked for second glass and a bottle of beer appeared. Food was OK (ish) nothing special. The young waiter was churlish and totally disinterested. An older waiter asked if we wanted anything else after we had finished the main course, we said we would decide, instantly the bill arrived. Another server, who I assume was the manager kept asking if we were ready to leave, when we asked for coffee he told us that would not be possible as the coffee machine 'had not been put on yet'. Again, we were asked if we were ready to leave. All this and before 19:30. There were some people waiting to eat, but we appeared to be the only couple they was urging to leave. I will not be back, and my regular takeaway order will be going elsewhere. VERY DISAPPOINTING

We're Indian, live in Radlett and usually travel to Stanmore, Harrow, Queensbury for a decent curry, but tonight we thought we'd give one of the local Indian restaurants a go. What a mistake! Our take away from Akash was one of the worst meals we've had - the food was drenched in oil, lacked flavour altogether and the nan was burnt. We ended up throwing it out. Would definitely never eat here again.

We have been visiting the Akash restaurant regularly for over 30 years - and it has never disappointed. 'Mr Akash' is as warm-natured, kindly and friendly as he was then and the cuisine is, and always has been, first class. My favourite is the half tandoori style chicken, but the menu is extensive and should not disappoint. Weekends are usually very busy - so best to book, but weekdays it is usually ok to 'arrive'. This restaurant has truly stood the test of time and has out-seen- and out-shone its rivals. Need I say more - highly recommended.

We were seated at a table where there was considerable mess beneath it-admittedly we hadn't booked but there were 3 empty tables. We had to ask for serviettes.The poppadams were fine, onion bhajis greasy , over-cooked and flavourless-no lemon as is usual as an accompaniment. Mymain course was "fresh green vegetables in a cashew sauce"-a few green beans but lots of potato and not a sign of a cashew. The rice was stuck together. I asked for water which never came. No-one asked us if our meal was OK.We left very disappointed and will not return.

Blue Eyes and I decided on a quick Indian meal early Saturday Evening. We live local and thought we'd take a walk into Radlett and spice up our Saturday Evening at Akash. Friendly Staff, Very Average Food cheap wine To be honest it is what it is. These type of local restaurants should really move with the times and try to improve their standards. I personally would rather pay more to get a better quality meal in an updated atmosphere and no sticky dirty menus :)

We have been eating at The Akash for years and our meal last week was, sadly, a little disappointing. Usually it is much better but the usual management were away and we really noticed a difference. The food took ages to appear (the restaurant was 10% full) and when it did, it looked like it had been sitting for some time, it was lukewarm and it needed reheating. The staff were pleasant but following the reheat, the food was greasy and tasted bland. It's a shame as there are many other good Indian restaurants in the area and we like this place.

This is my go to Indian when I want to have a local Indian without any faff (it's not fancy scmanchee).You always receive a very warm welcome from the team.They are friendly without being overbearing.My girlfriend always orders the same, but I pick something different every time that I go there and ask them what they recommend, which true to form, depending on hat I tell them I fancy, is spot on.Food is full of flavours and large portion size, that we usually end up leaving with a doggy bag.The ingredients are fresh as you like and you can evidently taste this no matter what dish you order.They have a really good menu selection too.On one occasion my girlfriend didn't like the wine that she had chosen, she didn't say anything, but they noticed she had hardly had any, so they just offered to change it, even though they had opened the bottle, little touches like that.So, excellent service, good all round Indian that is reliable and not had a bad meal there yet, so will always go back.

Saturday evening and we decided to go to an Indian. With the power of Yelp search we found a local one that we hadn't tried before.I called ahead to see if they had availability and they were lovely and polite over the phone and told us to come on down.We walked in, not too busy, and picked a table. I liked the fact that just because there were only two of us they didn't restrict us to a two seated table and we sat at a four by the window.They took our drinks order straight away and gave us poppadoms and dips.We looked through a comprehensive menu and made our choices.The boyff wanted a lamb chop for starter - random I know - and we ordered the mains too.The lamb chop was cooked beautifully and was a decent chop of good quality lamb.Mains came out....I had chicken tikka balti, which was lovely, I was surprised just how much chicken there was in the dish! It was cooked to an excellent standard and had lots of flavours running through it. The boyff had lamb jalfrazzi and he said it was excellent! He didn't talk the whole way though and was just nodding and mmmmn'ing!We had some Bombay potatoes as a side and they were delicious! I nearly ordered some just to take home with me.When we had finished, we asked for the bill, we were served fresh orange slices to cleanse our mouths with (obviously I ate them like you used to as a child and found it highly amusing), and some warm wipes.We paid and were bought the typical after dinner mint chocolate squares.The waiter chatted to us for a little bit and was so friendly, without being over bearing.We left, with the waiter getting the door and full tummies!I will definitely be going back here. Very good standard of food and great service.A top shout if you want Indian out, without paying through the most for pretentious contemporary Indian food that you get at other restaurants.

On the drive home back to the Midlands my wife and I were famished and were in need of some serious food. We stumbled across Akash by chance and chose to give it a try.I am pleased to say that the service was exemplary and the food was of great taste. The culinary experience was highly satisfying and our waiter on the night was attentive and catered to our needs however small the request.If we ever find ourselves in the Hertfordshire region again in the not too distant future, we are sure to visit this gem of a restaurant.

We took our American friend to the Akash. I was told it was very good but we had never been. The service the wonderful, the attention to detail, the menu amazing so many choices and food was delicious. We were so happy. My friend wants to go back when she visits from New York next year. We will be back well before then. We hear they do takeaway too and have a super value Wednesday evening too, so we might give that a try also. Thank you such pleasant and professional friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit and a second and a third.

Nothing seems too much trouble for the staff of this great restaurant. I've been coming here for many years and the excellent standard never varies.

Delivery Indian food in Radlett? Use these guys. Jalfrezi to weep for. Everything is good here. They are always quick. It is reliably good.

I can't believe the bad reviews of Akash. I live locally and have visited this restaurant many many times over the last few years. Attentive friendly staff and really tasty food. Admittedly I'm a fan of mild to medium rather than hot or very hot dishes, but to me taste I really have never had a better Indian.

We've been coming to Akash for the last 12 years and we have no plans to stop. We love everything about the place. Firstly, the food is excellent. I'm no curry connoisseur - I'm a korma girl and theirs is the best I've had anywhere, and that includes Brick Lane. Secondly, the service is always good and the staff are very friendly and welcoming, usually remembering us from our 12 years of visits! Third, fourth, fifth...etc reasons for always choosing Akash are the atmosphere (comfortably quiet and relaxed with soft lighting which is just what we want after a hard day at work), Banquet Wednesdays (starter, main, rice/naan and side for under £13) and the staff's repeated willingness to box up our leftovers for us to take away (of which there's a lot on a Wednesday). I don't know what restaurant the negative reviewers on here have been to but I can't believe it was Akash. We can't speak highly enough of the place.

Terrible Terrible Terrible!!!!!!Now I'm a curry nut and it's got to be pretty bad for me not to like it. I'm not one of life complainers usually. But my experience last night compelled me to review this restaurant. The place was clean and smart and the staff pleasant but the food was shockingly bad. Over cooked chicken and bland the keema was tasteless the rice was hard and I've had better onion bhajis out of Sainsbury's. Diet coke was poured from a half empty 2 litre bottle and flat. I didn't complain and paid the bill and left. I wish I had said something but was in a rush,

The food was tasty, and the service was very quick, which was great. However, I was a bit frustrated when the bill arrived without us even asking for it, and then the card machine was brought to us just two minutes later. I would have understood if the restaurant was busy or if there were people waiting for tables, but there was only one other table occupied at the time. It felt a bit rushed and left me with a poor impression, unfortunately. This experience has made me hesitant to return.

Not unpleasant but the blandest curries I’ve ever had. Ordered the Ceylon (described as ‘fairly hot’), but I’ve had spicier bowls of weetabix. It was also watery. A friend ordered the tikka masala which was just sweet. Not a hint of spice. At least none of it was overly oily like you see from some Indians. A real shame as we’ve just moved to the area and had high hopes. But I don’t think we’ll be returning.

Excellent food, kind staff (especially the quite old owner who still is active and happy to be there, very touching, even though one should not insist to order with him). Highly recommend !
