Ashiana in Southend-on-Sea

Can never fault a thing when visiting here. I’ve been coming here for 10yrs plus. Always recognised and welcomed. Have 8yr old twins that have always had special treatment from both Bob and all staff. Food is absolutely delicious, service is outstanding. Would never visit another Indian within a country mile. A must visit restaurant!!

Lovely food, friendly staff, will definitely come back.

Another wonderful evening spent here with friends, fabulous food as always and staff always go above and beyond their hospitality. Thank you, we'll be back soon

Favourite place in Southend. Will never stop coming back. Loveliest people and always really great food. Love it all.

Fabulous meal on Saturday, Bob, Raj and the team looked after us and it is very good to see a local business mopping up all the customers, who then become repeat customers because everything is done and run how it should be.

Absolutely amazing food and service as normal.. Always so personal and welcoming.. We went for a family birthday dinner and without asking they provided a cake and candles.. Family run business. We use them for takeout also and the food is as good as dining in.. Would always highly recommended.. 10 stars!

Quite simply the best meal and service I’ve ever had!! Award winning and completely worthy… They’d get another award for most wonderful and warm restaurant ever from my family. So lucky to live near to this awesome outfit!! Even ran up the road to buy a special birthday cake for my Dad when they heard it was his 80th birthday!!! There simply isn’t better!! See you soon fellas!!

not very spicey, dhansak should be lentils and spice, but good quality food, not sure if I would order again

Excellent service. We hadn't booked and were still seated. Food beautiful, people lovely, fabulous experience!

Food is excellent, so full of flavour , driver was early and very polite , our new favourite restaurant

Food was delicious, was recommended by a friend and so glad we gave it a try , our new favourite 10/10

Unusual and tasty dishes, good service and lively atmosphere. I'll be eating here again!

food was delicious, could've been a bit warmer though.

Nice clean and the staff very attentive and polite the food is very good and reasonably priced

Food was absolutely outstanding.

Disappointed tonight. I ordered 2 tandoori chicken starter and got 2 chicken tikka starters instead. Very tough chicken I might add and not very hot either. Not the usual high standards I expect.

Lovely resturant can't fault the food and the service make yoy feel like one of the family 😊

Undercooked chicken Undercooked onion bhaji Burnt nan

The nicest food I have eaten. Every dish was amazing and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Would recommend highly!

Great value for money. Attentive team. Very happy.

Best indian in southend by far.

Food quality was ok, but cold. Popadoms were old and paid for (usually free). I’m sure the food is good but this was a bad experience.

Beautiful tasty food , very popular and pleasant

Lamb wasn’t as tender as usual. Rest was nice as it usually is.

Its ok. Freindly. Had the buffet. Its very average.I wouldnt say the food was award winning.

Gorgeous food and delivery. Thank you.

Beautiful food absolutely delicious

Impeccable service, vibes and the food is out of this world! The team are extremely polite, friendly and go above and beyond at any opportunity. Thank you very much for an unforgettable experience at Ashiana. I will be recommending to all my friends and family.

fantastic food...will order again

Takeaway ordered. Service very quick and the food...well we have found out go to for fantastic tasty food and excellent service. Had chicken madras and chicken dhansak. Best we have tasted since moving here 2 years ago. My wife said that the peshwari naan was best she's ever tasted. Thank you Ashina we will definitely be back 100%.

Excellent food, service and ambience. Will make this place a regular stop.

order was hot and complete, thank you

Love the hospitality of this venue, everyone is his favourite customer and he certainly remembers personal details between visits. A decent meal deal option involving starters, main and sides. Drinks priced as expected. With a cheeky smile you can ask for a little bespoke flavouring This was AI but AI just done mind reading…cheeky Hi5 to Bob and his staff, good food, good price and always feel welcomed

Superb service from all of the staff with food to match. Sunday buffet offers fantastic food with extremely good value for your money. Many thanks once again to all.

Salmon tikka. Absolutely divine.

Tikka Massala was so sweet i could not eat it , sugar overload !!!

We went for a meal as a couple on a Monday evening.. Lovely food, good service & nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend it.

Great local curry house, very friendly staff, good quality food and reasonable prices!

I've never ordered from here before but WOW! Great flavours and massive portions too! I'll definitely order again and completey get why people love this place. Beautiful curry 🤤🍛

Went Saturday night with a party of 5 we was waiting ages for food to come out seemed to be concentratating on the take away part more than the restaurant customers delivaroo etc only got the attention we should have had all night when the pick ups slowed down . One of our dishes was incorrect but to late to sort it out Phil

Very delicious thank you so much

Amazing food as always. Very tasty. Keep going back for more

Amazing food will definitely be ordering again!

Delicious food as always! Highly recommended!

My favourite restaurant, never lets me down. Stunning, high quality food.

First time ordering excellent food

Fantastic food cooked to perfection

Went here for the start of my daughter's hen weekend. Food excellent Service fabulous Owner lovely. Would like to know when our photo is on the wall of fame

As always good food delivered on time or early and up to restaurant standards

Great food, staff and service, been using for years, good all round

We booked on a Sunday evening for my sons birthday as we were visiting the area. We were offered the buffet which was fantastic value, fresh starters brought to the table and free nann bread to order. The buffet was a good selection and everyone enjoyed. Service was brilliant. Would thoroughly recommend.

Absolutely superb from start to finish. Staff superb and attentive and the food was absolutely amazing too. Thank you all for your superb hospitality and culinary delights.

Absolutely stunning as always.

We came for the Sunday buffet which was very good. The curries are very often inferior at buffets as they are made in bulk but I have to say the half dozen on offer were I thought as good as ordering a la carte. Personally I would prefer chicken tikka and pakora starters in the serve yourself area rather than served by a waiter, but I’m guessing it’s an economical reason. I did enjoy the fact you order a naan bread and it’s freshly made for you. I thought it was well worth the money, very enjoyable and will return.

Always amazing food and service

Always a great meal and we'll delivered...👍

Fabulous As always delicious. We came here on our first day that we moved to Southchuch and we have loved it ever since. Please don't tell anyone else that it is so nice or else we will never get a table

we went last night for the first time and the service and food was amazing! we got lamb chops, tikka masala, peshwari naan, and onion bhaji’s and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. we were stuffed and even took some home! the owner talked to us at the end of the meal and made sure we had a lovely time. we highly recommend!

Excellent food and service! Best Indian ive ever had! Will continue to visit this amazing restaurant!

Excellent fresh food and the Sunday buffet has plenty of options great service, friendly staff. Would highly recommend and will come again

One of the best Indian restaurants ive ever been to in my whole life :) the food was delicious and the service was great too, we were given complementary food and drinks and hot hand wipes! my boyfriend took me here and we are definitely coming back next time I visit. We got amazing and delicious food of good quality and I would definitely recommend this to everyone!! The bathrooms are also very clean and the restaurant itself is as well and it is air conditioned and fresh inside

Absolutely delicious food, we have had take away from here before but managed to get child care which meant we could actually eat in. The service is out of this world, the food is just beautiful. Thank you so much for a lovely evening.

Absolutely delicious food! Service is second to none. Atmosphere just so relaxing, wonderful evening. Thank you.

really enjoy ordering from here, the food is so hot too!

Great meal and delivery, as always 👍

Unfortunately it didn’t taste very fresh tonight. Every one of popadoms were stale and the nan bread didn’t taste very fresh either. Not sure what happend

The food was superb, came hot and fresh and was expertly cooked and delivered. 10/10 Always love eating/ordering from here.

Visit with friends who live nearby who recommend the food ....absolutely delicious, staff so attentive and a pleasant place to sit and chat over a favourable selection of food

i would love to know what spices you use. lovely food.

What generous portions. Great value great taste thank you

Went for Sunday buffet, very pleasant service and atmosphere but very poor food

Another faultless meal by the best Indian restaurant in Southend.

Not so good .. avoid this restaurant due the treatment given to the indian people

Very good great taste and staff are polite

Beautiful meal.Will order again.

Absolutely beautiful food and service

delivery was late , which is fine on a Saturday , bhaji cold , chichen shashlik overcooked and dry.

Not happy at all as was sent 2x lamb madras which was not what I ordered, wanted chicken. Meat was too chewy so threw it in the bin. Shame as we really love your curries but today was a waste of money.

Chicken Tikka Madras and Pilau Rice is 5 Star Taste and Quality 🌶️❤️

Awful onion Bahji with peppers in for some reason. Both mains were horrible. thr Tandoori chicken wad covered in sauce when it should be dry. Even the Popadoms had a strange taste. All in all one of the worst Indian meals I've ever had. Rubbish!!

Ashiana..always great food....In or take away...Nice and hot too! 👍

I've been here lots of times over the years. The food is always fantastic, as is the service and the overall experience, always followed by a complimentary drink. If you've never been, you're missing out!

Order took 2 hours to come but the food was lovely.

Food was awesome and excellent value. Really enjoyed the picking up process, very friendly people- will return

First time here! Wonderful food & service Clearly marked vegan options too. Loved it!

Good quality, tasty and decent portion sizes. We will be ordering again

another great meal from the team at Ashiana 👍🏻

Looking for supper before a nearby concert we contacted Ashiana at short notice. They were super efficient in serving a memorable meal very promptly. Top marks for both the Lamb Shatkora and the Bindi Gosht!

Awesome curry, delivery time was fast and the driver was friendly. 5 🌟

Did not enjoy the food at all. There are very limited options when it comes to buffet.

Food quality is not good at all

I did try to call, however the line was constantly busy. Thank you for reading the order notes. Unfortunately the chicken was so tough and didn't seem to be fresh so I couldn't eat it. My previous 2 orders were perfect and I wanted to speak to you before leaving a bad review. Based on today's order I won't be ordering again. :(

Never disappoints, could not fault. Another perfect visit, treated like family by Raj & Bob as always, chef is on point every time without fail, we’re running out of superlatives for these guys 👌

Absolutely delicious. I had the Chicken Tikka Passanda with Bombay Potato and Channa Masala, and even though the delivery was a little late and the food lukewarm, I would definitely order again. Well worth the wait.

Our first visit .made to feel very welcome. Great food and excellent service. Very attentive staff who were were very friendly. We will visit again and recommend as the best Indian restaurant in soutchurch

Our first visit .great food and fantastic service .we will definitely come again .went with wife ,daughter and 9 week old grandson .staff were so very helpful and attentive

The best Chicken Tikka Madras in Southend. Great food and friendly service

Great people, great food, for people with gluten and dairy allergies highly recommend I will be be coming back next week

Order was supposed to be delivered at 8.45pm. Sitting here currently at 9.40pm and still no food delivered. Rang them up and they said the chef hasn’t come in so orders in the kitchen are backed up. Then don’t take orders on just eat then if you can’t handle them tonight! Really poor. Can’t even be bothered to eat it if it ever arrives!

The best Indian restaurant in Southend
