Appayon Restaurant in Cheshire East

Appayon is consistently fantastic. I regularly have take aways and occasionally eat in. I’ve never had a poor experience. Always friendly staff and the Currys taste delicious. I would happily recommend this restaurant as being one of the finest curry restaurants around. Thank you Appayon.

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! We arrive and waited 10 minutes to been seen to. We had pre booked our table. We were then seated upstairs and can say we were forgotten about. It took then a further 20 mins from being seated to have our initial drinks order taken. We ordered all our food with our first drinks as we knew they were busy/short staffed. We then waited an hour for our starters to come. 2 hours for my wrong main course to come. At this point I refused to eat or wait anymore. The rest of the party ate and when I refused to pay full price they got augmentative and quite intimidating. We settled on a price that was still too much for what I actually ate. Also a couple of the staff had food stained shirts and poorly dressed.

Ordered a takeaway as a first as a family. Really disappointing as we’d previously eaten in the restaurant and had takeaway before. The food was really late for a start. We were missing half our ordered and paid for poppadoms. Mainly though the food was poor and all very very bright colours. Needless to say, our children didn’t like their first taste of Indian food.

Our family of 7 have just left Appayon Indian Restaurant in Poynton. Such a busy restaurant for Christmas day. Yet the service was quick, friendly, and professional . And the food was undoubtedly delivered by a team of friendly, approachable staff. They worked hard to make our Christmas day special, and their friendliness, helpfulness, and energy made it a wonderful family Christmas meal. We can't thank them enough. As for the chef and his kitchen team, they delivered hot, fresh, and fabulous food that everyone enjoyed and loved. Thank you

Chose here for a mid-week catch up with mates and didn't disappoint. Staff were friendly and attentive (even if they thought we were talking about football when it was rugby) without being over bearing. Clearly I can only comment on my meal which was the chef special garlic butter chicken which was exceptional. All 6 of us had different main courses with no complaints and lots of empty plates. Finished off with the traditional free chocolate and shot of Baileys you'd be hard pressed to find a better value for money curry in the area.

Ordered my takeaway for New years Eve the day before. Cannot fault that it was ready when i arrived to collect. but having taken 5 mins back home with it,it was lukewarm and the Biriani rice was Greasy. What should have been an enjoyable meal ,turned out to be a big dissapointment. Very unimpressed,considering meals eaten inside the place were good.

We had an amazing takeaway on the Friday before Christmas. The restaurant sounded really busy when I phoned but the quality of the food was still excellent. The curries we ordered were all different (not like the similar sauce bases you get in other places). It was delivered on time and was delicious. Highly recommend.

Magnificent food! Everything you would want from an indian restaurant. Brilliant service by super friendly and attentive waiters. Ive been here many times and its so good I can never decide which dish I want cos they are all fabulous and super tasty. The place is clean, the atmosphere is friendly and their takeaways are awesome too!

Randomly chose this restaurant as a change for a Sunday night takeaway and was really pleased with the food. Not easy to get an authentic madras curry these days but this one was pretty close to a proper madras. Nice to see yellow pilau rice again, not seen that for a while. Both of our curries were very tasty and the quality of the chicken was good. Pappadoms fresh and starters good. The waiter who served me was polite and friendly and the food was ready on time. Price was good bearing in mind the restaurant quality of the food. I only live a few miles away and will definitely return to eat in this restaurant soon. Can’t believe I did not know about this restaurant.

Lamb Handi or Balti Murgh Makhani - guaranteed- great - the boys too are first rate - the millionaire

Very disappointing, ordered a takeaway brinjal Bhaji only to find it was 90% potato. Checked the order that was correct and also the lid stated brinjal bhaji so clearly they thought they would get away with the substituted cheaper ingredients. Not happy.

Oh amazing!! We went for the early bird and it was well worth it. Food was so yummy, no wait, great banter with staff and owner was a right laugh. Very highly recommended especially for the food.

been here many times, my go to indian by far the best. 100% recommend to anyone looking for a place to eat! they also deliver if you ring them up.

First time visit tonight. Lovely restaurant and very friendly and polite staff. Great food, will definitely be back.

Very reliable food and service. It's ready to collect when they promise and the quality is always excellent.

Had a takeaway from here last night it arrived really quickly and the food was hot thats where it stopped the poppadoms where burnt and tasted awful the currys were quiet bland and small portions have eaten in tbe restaurant a couple of times and wasn't very impressed then but every where deserves a second chance unfortunately we've not been impressed at all and won't be returning again

Excellent food, takeaway was really hot (temperature), really good flavours in all dishes. Medium curry could have been a bit spicier but apart from that, really enjoyed it and would go back if we lived here. (Just passing through overnight).

December 31st 7.00 pm. COVID tier 4 area The restaurant was so busy with takeout orders it looked chaotic, but organised it was! I received my order understandably a little late but the quality was as good as ever. Well done to all the staff...

We have been using Appayon for a long time and honestly can’t fault the place. The staff are lovely, the owner always welcoming and takes time to come and say hello. The food is amazing always cooked to our liking and fresh I really can’t...

This restaurant was very accommodating to our party and the service by Alex was friendly and very attentive. Would really recommend for a great meal whatever the occasion.

Arrived for my birthday meal. Put in a queue with about twenty people, no social distancing, three people walking around with no masks. I had a table booked but left because it was like being in a sardine tin, jammed so tight.

Cant fault anything! Very clean, such friendly staff and the owner is absolutley lovely! The food was really nice and he makes a good blue lagoon cocktail!!!

Well this was a real shame to write this but nana was burnt rice was dry and tasteless, onion baji burnt and hard curry was alright I suppose.. don’t know if I’ll return after that sad as I used to love it maybe it’s just...

First time we have eaten here and can’t recommend it highly enough. Everything we ordered was very nice chicken tandoori, naan bread, chicken tikka curry. Free delivery and arrived in around 30 minutes. Will definitely be ordering again soon!

We went to Appayon for the first time yesterday evening. It was simply one of the best Indian restaurants I have been to and I will certainly be going back. The food was delicious with excellent subtle spicy flavours. Waiters were heplful, professional and friendly....

We headed here to utilise the Eat Out to Help Out scheme, like many others. The restaurant was full so all staff were rushed off their feed. However, they remained kind and professional throughout. My food (paneer pakora and aloo chana) was not the best...

Over the years we have eaten here a great deal, and enjoyed take aways too. The Chancellor's August offer was on and they were busy. But they were mindful of the current precautions and I am glad to say that the standard of both food...

Fantastic food and great and pleasent service, very interesting menu.them king prawns were out of this world

Visited mid-week in July after lockdown. Still as great as ever, brilliant service and food cooked fresh. Very clean and reasonably priced! Highly recommended.

My son ordered a takeaway tonight & although I am not an expert on ‘Indian’ food, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. My son, who is much more experienced on Indian menus, ate & really enjoyed his meal & announced he would have a meal from...

The best food and service,lovely atmosphere and very helpful and friendly staff . A great set out , busy but not overcrowdwd. Have had a few takeaways since too and excellent quality . no compromise

We went for a saturday meal at 7PM restaurant very busy we pre booked the table. Just had pooadum starters with mixed sauces very nice was told because of the takeaway demand meal would be about 10 minutes which was not a problem two waiters...

Had the meal banquet for 2. Highly recommend the food here, absolutely blown away with the flavours and care that has obviously gone into creating the dishes. We ordered takeaway, but our next visit will be to dine in the restaurant and very soon... look...

Meal banquet for two, absolutely delicious and loads of food for £21! The chicken tikka started was to die for and the lamb balti full of flavour and so tender. A surprise dish of chicken tikka CC was beautiful, so many flavours including ginger I...

There were a lot of people in when we arrived taking advantage of an early bird offer. Great choice of food, well presented, hot and tasty. The waiters are always charming and helpful, they keep an eye but are not intrusive.

28 meals no problems no mistakes and excellent service from Mohammed Rahan, what a memory this guy has.

I have visited this restaurant on many occasions and have always loved it, food is fantastic And the atmosphere is great. This time one of the waiters we found to be rude and abrupt through out our time here, we all noticed it individually, think...

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal last night. Tandoori starter for 2, Chicken Nepalese, Lamb Korai Shashlik and Garlic butter chicken. The waiter was helpful with our gluten free request and food was produced fairly quickly despite being a busy Saturday night. Only niggle was the...

Six of us met up for beers and a curry in Poynton. We enjoyed the food here and the draught Cobra was in good shape. The late opening times made it our choice as two were attending a concert until 10pm. Mixed starter for all,...

I went to this restaurant with my family and we were enjoying our meal. A waiter comes over and starts talking to us for around 20 minutes. He did not take the hint that we wanted to eat in peace as he was very ignorant....

Had a takeaway tonight from here and it was fantastic. Big order that’s often easy to get wrong or something missing... but not here. Fantastic food at a reasonable price.

Delicious starters and mains.. by far our families favourite curry house to eat in or order take away in Poynton. Meat samosas are fab and the chicken dupiaza is delicious! Would recommend to anyone!

Went for a meal on New Years Eve. Food was excellent as usual. Atmosphere excellent and very comfortable seating. Staff very friendly and polite. I highly recommend this curry house.

Just returned from a New Years Day visit early evening.So pleased we booked a table as the restaurant was full by 7pm. We have eaten here on many occasions and tried various dishes.Everyone has been deicious and the portions are very good

Booked many weeks ago having arranged a night out with friends. The table we were given was upstairs in a cold, soulless room with no atmosphere at all. You couldn't even look out of the window as it had an advertising sheet flapping away. Service...

We chose five dishes to share between four adults, there was plenty of food to go round. Very tasty, excellent as usual. Ready for collection on time, very busy in restaurant and takeaway. Would recommend this as it’s always very good.

We have eaten here for years and won't go anywhere else for a curry. Food is always super and the staff are great.

Have eaten here for many years now and I have never left disappointed. Highly recommend to anyone who is thinking of visiting for their first time

Consistently good food, friendly atmosphere and surface as well as very reasonable prices. The only decent local Indian restaurant.

This is the BEST curry in Poynton. I haven’t had even an average meal here; they are all outstanding. Brilliant friendly service. Awesome food. Great price. What’s not to like?

Fantastic quality food, and brilliant friendly staff. They do an amazing sunday time menu which saves you a lot of money but no skimping on quality !! Go pretty much 2 X a month

Sunday special is awesome ! For sure the hidden gem in poynton, brilliant price without skimping on the quality. You will not be disappointed going here, love this place, go here at least 2 times a month with my family. Highly recommend the Lamb Tikka...

A good time with really good food. Staff friendly and helpful. Obviously a popular restaurant with locals got very busy but a good atmosphere. I would think booking recommended.

It’s our 3rd time here and we haven’t missed yet, really nice Indian food and the staff are great, out of 4 Indian restaurants in Poynton this is the best.

Usually eat Eastern Revive takeaway, but decided to try this place due to good reviews, 5 hygiene rating and decent prices. Overall the food was pretty poor, lamb and chicken was very tough, Shami kebabs were like rubber and the tandoori chicken was as awful....

This is our favourite place to go out and eat, we visit every family birthday! Food amazing and delicious with very attentive staff. We also have had takeout what has been amazing!

This is the BEST curry in Poynton. I haven’t had even an average meal here; they are all outstanding. Brilliant friendly service. Awesome food. Great price. What’s not to like?

1st time at Appayon, we were all very impressed with food and the service..the staff were so friendly and attentive

We were unable to get a table at another Indian restaurant in Poynton so decided to try here. The food was excellent and the service very good and they left sufficient time between courses. Having never been to this restaurant before I will be returning...

A good handy restaurant with good food. I am not sure if I would travel out of my way to eat here but reasonable.

Booked early - ish on Sat, table was not ready at 6.30, waited 10 mins in reception. Downstairs was very busy, apparently they offer a cheap early deal. We sat upstairs, which was OK except for huge TV blaring out ads and regular TV. This...

I was the disabled person referred to in an earlier post. I have been going to Apayon for many years and did not know that there was an option for dining upstairs. We were sat at a little table facing the kitchen door, not even...

We originally planned to go to purple pakora but it was full so we went here. When we arrived we were sent upstairs to our table, it was cold and there was no music or anything playing so it was quiet. We ordered our food...

I have eat here quite a few times before and have always enjoyed the food. The Sunday special is a brilliant deal with five courses for £10.99. The staff are very friendly and helpful when deciding what to have. They are also very proud to...

I will start the review by saying that I've been going to this restaurant for many years and have always recommended it to friends and been happy with the service. With this in mind we book for 13 of us to come for Xmas day....

We were a group of thirteen for a birthday meal. Service by Abdul was attentive and friendly. The meal was OK but nothing special. The bill came to £350 which I thought was a bit steep.

Had a very enjoyable visit on Christmas Day, after spending all day with the family, we broke from tradition and came for a Indian. They have recently won the BCA North West Indian Restaurant of the year and it is definitely well deserved. Food was...

Attended a charity fundraising meal here hosted by Poynton's Mayor. Serving 80 people the same three meal should have stress tested the kitchen, waiters, bar and management. IF it did; it passed with flying colours with excellent quality, well presented food always served with a...

Eaten here regularly for a few years - never disappointed. Ambience is good and service always friendly and timely. Particularly enjoy Balti Methi Gosht and Chicken Tikka Chom Chom. Will return regularly.

Booked online and attended straight from work. Very friendly staff, nice food and reasonable prices.

We visited for granddaughter’s birthday. The staff were very helpful and ensured we had what ever we wanted. The food was tasteful and well presented. The restaurant is clean and tidy and well located in the village with nearby parking

Really liked the atmosphere in the restaurant -the decor was very modern. We had poppadums to start which arrived really promptly. As a vegetarian, there was plenty of options to choose from and all looked delicious. Curry and naan bread was really good and arrived...

First time I had eaten in this Resturant there is a very good menu. My food was excellent ,😊 staff were very attentive , pleasant and attire immaculate. Very nice alround, I will definitely eat here again

Visited this evening to celebrate my daughters 13th birthday. Lovely warm welcome with swift service, but not too quick between courses which was nice. Great menu selection and food was very tasty. Been here several times and as always had a great meal.
