Ayaan Kitchen in Carlisle

Don’t bother with delivery! Was told on the phone it would take 1hr 20 (which is a pretty long time to begin with, but we were happy to wait) 2 hours passed and each time we called we got another ‘Oh they’re on the way 5/10 mins’ at this point we were starving and it was very late. Food was average and the service has been like this for years and they don’t seem to try and improve it as you can see from many other reviews

Description and pictures suggest this is a restaurant however take away only and looked a little grubby so left without ordering therefore unable to properly assess food quality

always Very nice food and service

Great front of house staff. Wonderful food. Always get takeaway from here.

Visited this restaurant last night while on a work trip all the way from Essex. The restaurant looked promising and had very modern decor. The food however did not live up to the look of the place. I ordered a butter chicken, which I always have all over the country. This one came up bright pink/red and the chicken was strange chewy thin strips. The rice was dry and the naan bread was like flat bread with some garlic on it. My coworker ordered a Chicken Biryani. The sauce on it wasn’t bad but very average. The rice very dry and it has a boiled egg on top - which was slightly grey all around and the inside was ENTIRELY BLACK. Jet black and tasted horrible. Not impressed at all especially for the price of the place.
