Akash Tandoori in Blackpool

This restaurant was fantastic. The food was amazing & the staff were very friendly & the humour was good. Highly recommend 👌

Honestly the best Indian cuisine I've ever tasted. I'm used to the basic takeaways so this was an insane change. From the naan bread, to the curry, to the dips. 5 stars all round.

Fantastic curry and incredibly friendly staff. Was only visiting and would love to have this place as my local curry house!

Very nice Indian food and friendly service. Recommended!

Every time I go to Blackpool I stop by Akash. It's one of the best Indian ones I've tried so far and the welcome from the staff is always so friendly. Be careful, the “medium spicy” dishes burned my European mouth. If you are sensitive, eat dishes that are not very spicy. Looking forward to my next visit to Blackpool to find this restaurant!

This place is a gem! Sammy will welcome you like your old friends and by the time you leave you will be friends. The food is amazing and the service 5* it’s our new ❤️ place to eat curry in Blackpool. Been there 4 times now and we will be back again and again!

Excellent place to visit, always great welcome by Sam

Great Place, Great Staff, Lovely Food, highly recommend!

A beautiful experience, the welcome and hospitality was well received, something that we were hoping for! The menu was great and our choice of food didn't dissappoint!! We are already looking forward to returning on our next venture to Blackpool!!!

Ate here last night. Been previously but not for a few months. Food was excellent again. All 4 of us enjoyed it and I've just enjoyed, again, the food I brought home. Starters and curries. A hidden gem really.

Great indian restaurant with friendly staff and owner. The food is delicious. We have visited a few times and everything we've eaten has been perfect. Great location in the town centre. Highly recommend if you're looking for a tasty indian meal. Will be back very soon.

One of the hidden gems of Blackpool. Fantastic food and friendly staff. Easily the best in Blackpool.

Some really tasty food served up here, we were slightly hesitant walking up the stairs, but don't be fooled by the lack of flashy frontage, what awaits is wonderful customer service, and some delicious food! We'll definitely be coming back soon!

Akash is always amazing. Thank you

Had a really lovely Indian meal here, the staff was very friendly and tentative. The curries were really good.

The butter chicken is delicious, loved it!! And lovely staff

Food was OK, but errors in delivery and there was a lot of noise going on. Probably not one I'd re-visit - it was very busy and the staff seemed to be present in insufficient numbers to cope.

Really lovely food, had hints of Brick Lane from 30 years ago (Before BlackRock Destroyed EVERYTHING), Unusual, indian restaurant.. as very good. Owner (Sami) and his team are really all over the place to make you feel welcome and he is a good host. This is a very good place, per service, food etc. probably up there amongst the BEST in Blackpool, also you can tell the menu is well rehearsed as there is not a choice of 400 dishes that need a required microwave, well done and don't change a thing. Mad London.

Excellent meal on a cold Wednesday night after the match at Fleetwood Town. Lamb Rogan Josh was fantastic, tenderly cooked, warming and well portioned. Fantastic mixed starter, with two great dipping sauces.

Great food, great service. Well recommend!

Ordered Lamb Madras with boiled basmati rice, it was tasty and portions were generous.

Great food Great service , will be back - 100% recommend

Lovely meal at Akashi, dishes were full of flavour and the naan bread was exceptionally good - no flour taste.

My friends and I had a really great time. I am really familiar with these kinds of food but this is the best one so far. The only downside is that I’m from the north east so I can’t come to eat in this place everyday. Would recommend to everyone if they ever asked me where is the best tandoori restaurant is.

4th visit on 4th trip to Blackpool. Unbeatable Tandoori - spicy Tarka Dhal, excellent Jalfrezi, superb Naan. Worth every penny. Excellent hosts - attentive, and good humoured. Looking forward to visit number 5.

I can honestly say this is the best Indian meal we've ever had 5 adults 2 children all of us agreed. Fantastic service and they accept the Taste card . Brilliant. But unfortunately it is not wheelchair friendly. Stairs upto restraunt and more to the loo. Taking that into account I still cannot drop any stars because everything was so good .

Absolutely gorgeous food. Highly recommend

Well, were shall I start WOW in one word,we was walking around looking for somewhere to eat (4 of us) came across this place we was a little unsure to start with. Then a very nice guy came past us and welcomed us in with plenty of space. Lovely clean place and lovely polite staff the food was the best I've had in a long time. This place could be the reason to visit Blackpool

Found this place by chance, greeted by a member of staff as he was entering the building. We asked if there was a table for 4 available and there was. Greeted again by more staff, all of which were very polite and friendly. Dining experience was great, from ordering drinks to food. I had a chicken tikka massala which tasted amazing. Would definitely recommend a visit here, and we will certainly visit again. :)

Very friendly, tasty food, recommended by foodie locals. Welcoming on an incredibly busy day for Blackpool

Would definitely recommend here. The food was really good. One of the best Indian restaurants I've been to in a long time. It wasn't overly expensive either.

Very running chicken madras, quality has dropped since last time. It used to be great

Pleasant staff and quick and food taste great.

the food is not good, and the delivery is late the delivery is rude.. saying I waste his time, eventhough I paid for delivery for 4 pounds

Lovely meal very friendly and attentive staff, very nice. We all opted for the tandoori special mixed grill and it didn't disappoint not one of us could finish it. Lovely little place. The only downside was all the stairs apart from that it was lovely.

Really nice workers even offered me a beer while I waited for the food which was amazing, wait wasn’t too long considering how much we got, great service great food will definitely be going again

I had a delivery of food last night. The man was very polite and friendly. That was the end of the good. The chicken chat puree was ok but cold. The Korai was awful. The chicken tasted like it had been boiled and was like chewing rubber. It ended up in the bin. What a shame. I was really looking forward to my £24 meal. You have been warned.

Doesn't look much from the outside but don't let that fool you.. me and the mrs gave it a go and glad we did.. Best Indian meal either of us have had.. Excellent food Excellent and friendly service Very reasonably priced 100% recommend

I went to the akash a couple of days ago. I ordered a naga , it was so good the manager/ owner was chatty and treated us well. The bill was £50 for 2 and it we ordered starters main and drinks

Really good Indian in the centre of Blackpool. It was recommended to us. Very speedy service.

Always great choice of vegan and veggie food, top quality

I have been visiting the restaurant every year since 2016. Good Food, good service. Looking forward to 2016.

Been living here in UK for past few years and have tried curry houses all around. I had a chance to visit Blackpool for a vacation. After finding this amazing dining spot Akash Tandoori, I had to visit them three times in a week. Their tarka daal is my favourite dish so far and the lamb bhuna is absolutely mouthwatering. The service and hospitality was seamless as well. I would really recommend to try this place if ever visiting Blackpool. Will definitely revisit them again :))

Went there last night with a bunch of mates. Great food, great service, would recommend.

Best indian restaurant in blackpool .

Visited in June 2024 and ordered a number of dishes. Amazing food and service. Food arrived quickly and enjoyed by the whole family.

Great food and lovely, welcoming staff. Whenever we're in Blackpool we cannot skip going to the Akash. It's as much of a staple as Pleasure Beach or Coral Island. Highly recommend!

This place was a great find, for halal food.Had chicken karahi recommended by the staff with nan bread, tasted great as well, served hot, little ghee spread on top. The dessert was a great surprise, very tasty kufi. Finished it all, hence a picture of it before the last bite. There is no parking in the immediate vicinity, we walked around in the shopping area and stumbled upon it. It's a 15 min from bonny street car parking, 10 if you're a fast walker. The entrance is a staircase going upstairs. The main seating is upstairs so not wheelchair accessible. The stairs are big and manageable. The staff is very friendly.

madras not that tasty and pasander sauce very runny

Couldn’t ask for a more friendly welcome. But the food is what it’s all about and 100% it’s out of this world. Never usually write reviews but this place has well stood out. Thanks to you all Scott. Naomi and and 2 boys

Came here for the first time tonight and was absolutely amazing! Would definitely recommend trying here, great food and service, we even got a few drink which was lovely of them to do so! Highly recommend coming here!!!!

Well what can I say akash never lets you down sammy grandad and team from starter chicken chat puri mixed grill and nan excellent it shows 36 yrs blackpool no1 5 * keep up the good work Sammy

I have again been let down by the delivery of tonight's order The vendor advised that the delivery would be at 17:45 whereas the delivery did not come until 18:10, by which time the food was only tepid.

Rubbish place as clerks don't seem to have a clear mind to even do the calculation properly. They are trying to charge you more when you are checking the price you paid, wow what a restaurant!

It is disappointing that all the sauce mixed up with my rice

Always great food . been going here 30 years. The owner we see as a personal friend we have been going that long. Traditional Indian with great food and service. Best in Blackpool so much so we have stopped trying other when we are in town

Proper, old school curry house. Great portions, spicy curry just right, great pint and fantastic service for a good price.

Delicious Indian food in Blackpool!! Yummy 😋

My Indian friends when they come to the UK have had many great meals here with me when we visit Blackpool. They rate the Akash as genuine Indian food and way better than the average British Indian establishment. I will be back.

Fast delivery. Lot of food for the price paid which is good. Food not salted at all which is also good for average but I would prefer salted food.

First time at Akash and I bought a £12.65 Tandoori Mixed Grill, It was tasty and fresh, good portion size and I got some free poppadoms, it was basically a good meal for one with a bit left over for tomorrow so very good value

It was OK had a lot nicer. Felt a bit rushed in there even though nobody was in there the old man couldn't wait to take your plates hadn't even finished.

Update 25th Feb 2024 Great food good value good service this is a fantastic restaurant have highly recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💎

Great place, fantastic food, be back again in a few weeks, very friendly owner

Really good food and friendly staff.

Nice food but portion for price is a bit on the small side but other than that lovely

Excellent food, fantastic service, competitively priced would Highly Recommend 👌

Very Beautuful Village. I love it

Quiet a steep climb up some stairs before entry to restaurant, toilets are negotiated by yet another flight of stairs. Staff very friendly and attentive on our arrival and during our stay. Food was excellent my wife's main ( chicken tikka saagwala) was according to her the best she had tasted, my chicken tikka jalfrezi was excellent, reasonably priced and a complementary drink offered on departure, would definitely call again if my wife can manage the stair climb.

I rang the restaurant for an update as my order was running a little late. They apologised for the delay and said they were really busy, New years day so completely understandable. When my food arrived not only was it piping hot massive portions and absolutely delicious, they included a load of free items as well, I suppose to apologise for the delay. Naan bread, poppadoms and sauces, and side salads. Maybe everyone gets that but either way, first class service. My new go to indian food from now on, simple as that. Can't wait to try more dishes from their menu. Thanks so much to the team at Akash for going the extra mile and a happy new year to you all.

Always a fabulous meal! Great service!

Missing my rice and everything else too spicy to even eat poppadoms all crushed up

While in Blackpool we had 2 come back here again especially after the 1st time we came as the owner & staff make u feel so welcome & very friendly, & amazing food. We ordered a mix grill as 1 of our meal this time & all the meats just melts in your mouth. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to family & friends as they wont be disappointed 👌

Called up made an order for delivery to cleveleys, it was delivered quickly, and the most Amazing food it was delicious, will deffo be back

Nice and tidy. Yum yum. Be back January 2024 ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

Not happy at all with the order was all wrong and wasn’t bothered about sorting it out for me as the man said he was too busy!! And the food wasn’t the best wow never again stay away!!

Food and service were excellent

Food was not warm. Later than expected

Lots of Asian people dining , including small children at the time of my visit, which tells me a lot. The service was excellent and so was the food. I’m definitely going back 🤗

This is one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Staff are so polite, helpful and caring and speedy service and everything was excellent and tasty will definitely recommend you try it.

Great place for an Indian. Food was absolutely beautiful, and they are on Meerkat Meals too, even better!!! Definitely come here again

Excellent food great service ,small tables

Great Indian food, sizzling mixed grill exceptional. Friendly helpful staff and service

Best Indian restaurant in Blackpool .. Great service and friendly staff .. don't rush you like other restaurants.. fresh food and very tasty. Generous portions. won't be disappointed if you visit. Definitely recommend 👌

Very nice food in this restaurant….. I back again🤗😇😍

Amazing food, lovely staff, will definitely be returning

Best Indian meal we have had,never had one as tasty,good value and excellent service

I came with my wife and the foods were really good and their stuff and the services were really fantastic. A nice place for the indian food lovers.

Really lovely food. Staff really friendly and attentive. Worth taking the trouble to find it, tucked away. Would definitely return

Food was very tasty but not hot on arrival. We had to reheat everything! Not ideal when it’s chicken

Can after seeing good reviews on trip advisor. Food was amazing . Best korma we've ever had ( chicken tikka korma) as well as the other dishes were all really nice. Also chili mango dip for the poppadoms was sooo good! Overal the food wasn't greasy at all. Just full of flavour. Staff were so nice and friendly. Had a lovely chat about tattoos! Hopefully be back when we next visit Blackpool again.

We have been to Akash tandoori at Blackpool, today & I am so impressed, enjoyed very nice Indian, vegetarian foods, we eat jain foods,( without onion, garlic) they make it special for us, and taste was so delicious I recomand to all

Only good thing was Simon on the bar very polite and helpful unlike the servers , food was terrible would not recommend

Great food. Great service. Highly recommend.

Best good i have tasted in Blackpool great host

We went in for take away. This place has a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. It is a hidden gem. The food was outstanding. I cannot fault one bit of it. Highly recommended and when we visit Blackpool again we will be back in for a sit in meal.

The best Indian in Blackpool. A big thank you to Sami and Simon for a fantastic experience from start to finish.

When in Blackpool always go to akash tandoori.very friendly welcome from staff.service second to none.portions big at a great price.all food amazing .like a throw back to the taste of seventies curries .highly recommend.will be back for sure again

Absolutely delicious food and great delivery time. Would highly recommend.

Heard about this restaurant from the Cask and Tap next door, glad I did great food and staff, I was up from Derby for football and went here after the match, 1030pm. I had a mixed kebab starter, chicken kharahi, mushroom rice and a keema nan, washed down with a pint of Cobra, really enjoyed it, I will be back. Edit... I can't really comment on the atmosphere as it was late evening on a Tuesday and there were only two other people in.
