Akash in South Somerset

We had korma and butter chicken sorry Akash the quality is usually exceptional this time not. The korma and the butter chicken tasted the same having had this combination many times this is not correct. The chicken also tough and the food not that warm. It was all eaten but not up to your usual standard sorry akash

Ordered a Take Away last night. Service was excellent. Food was delivered on time and was hot. Lovely flavours in my Lamb Madras. Highly recommend

8pm delivery - I gave up at 9.10pmIs this society now? Phone turned off at restaurant. Some people planned on feeding their kids go have waited up in a school night. Never again Akash - never again . G

great service, they forgot to send the bottle of coke with the order they phoned me apologized even before we knew it was missing. and sent it out ASAP. most places wouldn't have bothered I'm chuffed they rang

No issues with ordering, food arrived before the estimated, always a bonus! Great flavourful hot food. All good 👍

Very tasty and would order again as good value for money, cold but no problem reheating

Food came to me cold. And was two hours late.

Excellent food, hot and flavoursome with not too much spice. Delivery driver nice and friendly.

never arrived, terrible service and can’t get hold of the restaurant! waste of money

Really tasty food, can tell it’s all freshly made. The chicken tikka masala was full of flavour and the chicken was not dry at all! Nice and hot and 10/10 for flavour.

The best curry we have eaten for a while! Always avoided due to cost but not much in it these days with the other restaurants. Definitely a new favourite of ours 😋

Ordered takeaway this evening, arrived early - always a bonus. Ordered Chicken Ceylon, chicken Korma, onion bhaji’s and peshwari naan, it arrived with extra dips and salad. Can hands down say that this was the best curry that we have had for a long time. A new favourite, thank you 🥰

My food was so salty it was unable

order was due to be delivered between 18:45 and 19:05, it didn’t arrive then, delivery time was changed to 19:40… It didn’t arrive then. The food eventually got to us at 20:25. I tried calling the restaurant using the number provided on just eat, number doesn’t work, I found a different number online, they didn’t not answer, I rang nearly 10 times constantly calling, no answer. I then called from my partners phone and they answered straight away… joke of an order, waste of time.

Terrible service. 90 minutes late and offered a rather insulting gesture of £3 in respect of the delay. Tried ringing and ringing whilst waiting and they never answered the phone. Unacceptable. Food was stone cold when it finally arrived

I order from here regularly and it’s one of my favourite take aways unfortunately it came almost stone cold tonight.

Didn’t give me my Diet Coke really sad

Not the best ,45 minutes late,food was lukewarm

Great food but late as always and with something missing which has happened before. such a shame as if they could get their acts together a bit more this please would be amazing

The order wasn’t delivered and was over 1hour and 20 minutes late when we cancelled the restaurant are refusing to refund which is totally unacceptable

Very disappointed with the size of the rice for the price and the meal I had was tasteless which was meant to be spicy.

Ordered on Deliveroo! order arrived 95% of the food wasn't even warm!! I had to reheat it! I called them and basically they asked what did I want them to do!!! I asked was it OK to order 28 quids worth of food for it to be cold.. the reply yes! hmm Won't bloody go there again! Not exactly great customer service!!!

Chicken madras, pilau rice, sag paneer, peshwari naan, absolutely delicious. Ordered directly with the Akash at 6, for a delivery at 8. It arrived at 7.55 with extra poppadoms! All the food was perfect, and I can honestly say it was the best curry I have ever had. This is the first review I have written, but the food and delivery were 10/10 and felt it was only fair to share my experience.

My son ordered me and him a meal he spent 40pounds the food was cold and the sauce was horrible and the meat was poorly cooked I was physically sick

Ordered takeaway, the quality of the food was terrible, the meat tasted strange. The sauce was very thick, like wallpaper paste. My mother was sick, and I will never order from here again. I called the restaurant to get a refund, and the lady barely understood English, so it was an uphill struggle to explain the situation. Everything was thrown in the bin. PLEASE REFUND MY ORDER.

best indian i have had in a long time

AVOID Me and my partner have called 4 times on 3 different days to ask about their menu, and what tastecard covers (as they are advertised as a tastecard restaurant and it specifies with all tastecard restaurants you have to call at least two hours in advance anyway) they’ve hung up on us for asking a simple question about their menu, told us to call the next day which we did and were hung up on again and we’re just overall ridiculously rude. Avoid this place, haven’t heard great things about the food but we just wanted an Indian, guess we can’t have one apparently

First time ordering with Akash and I can say it was absolutely beautiful and full of flavour !!!

We had to wait over 2hr 30 minutes before our food arrived. When we called the restaurant after an hour, we got told that they are very busy but the food will be with us in 5-10min. For the next hour and a half, we rang them several times and still kept telling us that it will be with us in 10min. They didn’t even ask for our order details so we knew this wasn’t true. We contacted deliveroo agents to cancel/refund, but they couldn’t do anything as the restaurant kept telling them that the food will be with us in 10min and refused to refund us. If you know you don’t have the capacity to deliver the food, maybe don’t be open on the app? Please avoid if you don’t want to wait over 2 hours for delivery.Very disappointing.

Pre ordered so not late, but nearly 30 mi s late. No onion Bhaji with Tandoori mixed grill as advertised. Excellent Chicken Tikka Madras.

Great food as always. Initially we had a problem with the food being delivered 2 hrs late (apparently a one-off issue) however the restaurant made suitable amends and the latest order arrived slightly early and as delicious as ever. Thank you and we’ll be back soon!

Items missing. The food took nearly 2 hours to get to us. No contact made to say it would be late and when we rang we were told only one driver available.

Ordered chicken korma sent tikka masala

Easy to order. Really good food arrived on time and hot. Delivery man smiley and friendly as always. Tasty food. Exactly what you expect. 5stars all round.

Food was cold and drink of coke was missing

Nice food, prompt delivery, friendly driver. Spot on

The only problem was that we ordered pilau rice but received plain!

Delivery between 19.05-19.25 !!! Food arrives at 19.40 & Luke warm 😤 no apologies Love the food but waiting time unacceptable sorry 😢

Order was placed at 18:53. Was notified that the order would be delivered between 19:30 and 20:00. I finally got the order at 20:40, with a text to say the driver was stuck in heavy traffic. One of my children ended up just going to bed and therefore missed out on a meal. Have since had a follow up, after requesting a partial refund that they restaurant won't be issuing. Therefore, as nice as the food was, I won't be ordering from them again.

45 minutes late, called the restaurant altogether 86 times but no answer.

Definitely won't be ordering an delivery from Akash again.

Food was good however we spent £80 and didn’t get anything free of charge really plus two items were missing and we had to visit the restaurant to complain as no one was answering the phone. My sister didn’t receive her food and we couldn’t eat together

Very good. Tasted fresh and was hot on arrival

Keema Nan was over done. Chicken was chewy, mango was vinegary. Usually we love the food from you, but tonight was absolutely not worth the money. The order was already delayed 30 minutes, and then another 20 late from the new time.

Order is getting smaller and smaller couldn't even taste any garlic on Nann over 20 Yr of having these never again

Onion bargis were missing and we were given cheaper boiled rice rather than the special rice we paid for. Tried ringing akash but no answer

Awful!!!!!! 2hrs later and takeaway still not delivered!! Wouldn’t want it now after kicking around that long in a delivery van! Rang severs times to be told on its way. Terrible service and we are now waiting to see if our refund which we have now requested is honoured!!! Blamed “traffic” on a Sunday evening! And a driver that didn’t show up - don’t take the orders and money if can’t fulfill them?!

We ended up waiting 2 hours, we had to ring and were told they were short of drivers, would be nice to be informed, when food arrived is was Luke warm and the poppadoms were soft and yuck, we are regular customers and spent £50-£70 nearly weekly with Akash, no apology or discount offered, we tipped the driver as usual , sadly this will be the last time we use Akash as last week we only got half of our food

My food was burnt and very very dry. Probably won’t return.

Good food. Delivery time was accurate. No complaints.

Was lovely and hot would def order again

the food was awfull and gave us both bad stomachs .

Food was delicious, and the meal for one was more than enough.

Disappointing on this occasion. Food not as well prepared as previously. Quality of my lamb tikka biryani below par. Shame, as Akash has been one of my favourite curry houses.

Ordered and the food was very small £60 for very little to feed 4 people it fed 2.5 not a lot of chicken in sauce small rice portions and no extras £60 …: we normally use mukta won’t be reordering Akashi again … mukta in comparison no comparison extremely disappointing and extremely poor

Collected order which wasn’t ready when specified, food actually made and prepared at the Viceroy (across road) due to Akash kitchen being closed. Essentially this wasn’t an Akash Indian, chicken was tough and chewy, very dissatisfied and tasted very average. Have been a loyal Akash customer for about 35 years and this was a very low point, not acceptable,

Food was really good and hot when it arrived.all OK

Sauce lovely, lamb bit to chewy.

Food arrived hot well prepared and very tasty good quality. Little bit pricy but worth it

Had delivered a mixed starter - ok ish no sauces , main indeble, asked for usual extra garlic naans - just fresh raw garlic?

Food ok but Phall not really spicy and unusually for an Indian restaurant no free salad or poppadoms included. Probably won’t use again

I ordered a lamb biriyani as well as a chicken dansak, both portions were completely not edible, I couldn’t chew the lamb and as for the chicken dansak it was clearly just chucked through the microwave, the chicken was so though chewy and dry I couldn’t even swallow the meat. I chucked the lot in the bin, even the garlic Nan was revolting.

Good was amazing and so was the delivery. Thanks you

Food had no spice at all. Took over two hours to arrive and was cold. No luck telephoning.

Some of the food was cold although food as usual is very nice from here

Food great.but miss the restaurant. Delivery took nearly 2 hours...

Food was tasty but not very warm

I ordered a prawn biryani and received a chicken biryani. I dont eat meat so extremely disapointed

Can’t get hold of anyone and food was cold

Won’t be ordering from here again food is constantly late and naan bread was just covered in garlic paste nasty

Not sure what happened, but decided to order something not tried before so ordered a chicken Korai, described as medium and spicy. Was absolutely disgusting, no heat, no spice, no taste, almost as if all the main ingredients other than the tomato and onion hadn’t been added, disappointing to say the least.

Order didn’t have everything i ordered. Was due to arrive at 8pm and didn’t turn up until after 9pm and cold. When I asked why it was late they blamed the bad weather…..there wasn’t any bad weather. But they wouldn’t answer the phone so got that via text through just eat. I’m still not sure how bad weather stops the order being correct. Will be seeking a refund. Very poor

Had heard some good things about this takeaway,ordered from them last week for the first time,and my meal was 1 hour late and was nearly cold.thought I would try them again hoping it was a one of.meal was again late (45 minutes) ,no dip for onion bhajis,which were nearly cold,and curry and rice were just luke warm.I won’t b ordering from them again.

I appreciate it would had been a busy night with the football on,but the food arrived about 1 hour late,and all the food was Luke warm.

Food was fabulous but no update u til after 1 hr

Great food, arrived on time but small portion sizes

Ordered my food over 2 hours ago, still not arrived despite the app saying it’s on the way. Can’t get hold of the restaurant, phone just rings out. Not impressed, won’t be ordering again

We ordered a delivered take away 2 hours ago and are still waiting. 1 hour 45 minutes ago we were told it would be with us shortly. Rang the restaurant and got told it was on it's way without them even asking who we were. Appalling service. Expecting cold food, if it ever arrives!

My food has arrived cold and my can of coke is missing. Tried to ring restaurant and it is constantly busy and I can’t get through

Ordered from the Akash, Lamb Sag and Chicken Mackon with sides. My wife and I were very impressed. Mackon rich and creamy, Sag fresh and succulent. Very pleased and would always recommend again. Came within the time given also which was welcome

Had a number of takeaways and visits to the restaurant over a number of years, and Akash have never let us down! Jalfrezi, tikka masala and also custom hot tikka masala are amazing. Have tried other restaurants ... never again!

First time we have used Akash, not disappointed and will definitely be using them again. Ordered online, very simple and the food arrived on time. Excellent food, good value for money, definitely our new favourite Indian in Yeovil.

We had a selection butter chicken and korma really good and tasty with mushroom rice could be a bit hotter in temperature of food but really good well done keep it up.

Great food, Great atmosphere will definitely be back soon.

Haven’t had an Indian like this in a while. Absolutely stunning taste. Definitely my favourite Indian in Yeovil by far.

The Akash is the the best curry house in Yeovil. I am currently enjoying a Vegetable Phall with coconut rice and peshwari naan.. absolutely delicious, very well cooked and the spice is just right. Thanks guys

We have eaten in the restaurant regularly and have always been happy with the food, so we ordered a takeaway for a family celebration. Unfortunately the chicken korma and chicken tikka masala dishes were ridiculously sweet, the other food was fine but not as good as usual.

Really lovely food last night for take away. Friendly staff who said how long it would be (25m) and 25m later it was ready. All food tasted fresh and looked great, lovely chicken and lamb and naan bread and and and. Thumbs up all round. Thank You.

Ok food, but not great. Good service and buffet menu twice a week. Had to edit this as takaway I had tonight was excellent.

We got take way on 21 march the food was excellent we got it the was piping hot .the staff at Akash ever help fall thank you for a excellent food

Absolutely awful, one check out working with quite a queue, lots of people don't like those do it yourself tills.

A great restaurant selling Indian food, very tasty dishes, excellent quality and good portion sizes. Staff were very friendly as well

Ordered from the Akash again, but have never put on a review. Should have. I had the Golda Chingri Morrisa and my wife the Chicken Badami Passanda. The food came in good time. It was-hot and beautifully cooked. Onion bhajees and poppadoms came as complimentary which was very welcome. Garlic Naan was fantastic. I can’t recommend enough the Akash for great value, great tasing and fresh food. Best Indian takeaway in Yeovil by far.

Fantastic food! Service was lovely as well, menu was quite hard to understand for example what comes with certain dishes as standard as some has rice and others did not but it did not explain it clearly enough, maybe me being thick I am not sure.

Just got a takeaway from here as we have been going to a different one in town and thought we'd go back for a change. Literally it was disgusting. Food all cold, overcooked onion bahjis, water all over our plates from the curry, the naan bread was disgusting. The only good thing was the chips. £27 quid wasted and very disappointed! Akash used to be a lovely indian with really nice food. I think the owners/chef must have changed. Definitely wont be returning.

Not the cheapest but food is always good

Always have an amazing takeaway from here. I always have the lamb tikka masala which is so good.

Food cold and arrived late. Very basic, no flavour.

Out for a Friday night curry with the BF. Hadn’t been here for years but Neighbour recommended it. They have Thatchers on tap which is nice to see. Food was amazing. Huge portions, very tasty. I had the chicken Marissa which was lovely. Proper huge lumps of chicken (not the awful processed chicken either). We couldn’t finish our meals so we took them home and had enough for tea the next evening. I can see why people moan about the service. Not as friendly as other Restaurants but not obtrusive either. Give it a go. x

This is the real gem of takeaway ally. Great food lovely staff nice atmosphere and reasonable prices.
