This is regularly the rudest place in Tenterden. I went on Monday with two friends at 9pm. There was nobody else in (no surprise) and the host greeted us with “we close at 10” in a way that made it clear he would rather we didn’t come in. We ordered poppadoms, a bottle of red wine and a jug of tap water. He then told us they don’t serve tap water due to health and safety!! I pointed out that I live in Tenterden and drink the water all the time. He insisted tap water could not be served, so in disgust we left and had a great meal at Ozgur. The welcome at Badsha is regularly brusque and rude. By the way it is illegal for restaurants not to offer tap water!

Badsha in Tenterden is a small venue and a typical village curry house. We went on a Wednesday night and the place was fairly busy, which was nice to see mid-week. The restaurant itself felt like it had been newly refurbished with clean, modern bathrooms and some rustic wooden beams that give it a bit of character. The service was quick, but the waiters were pretty quiet. It wasn’t a big deal, but it would've been nice to have a bit more interaction. The food was hit and miss. The Chicken Tikka Masala, ordered Madras hot, was the preferred dish—flavourful and the most enjoyed. However, the Chicken Chadnaroo was disappointing, lacking the expected heat and taste, we also ordered a Chicken Dhansak that unfortunately lacked flavour and had a poor consistency. Overall, we liked the vibe of Badsha and the food wasn’t bad, but it didn’t really blow us away. Badsha’s an acceptable spot for a casual evening out, but don’t expect to be wowed.

Ordered a takeaway for 8pm on the website and it arrived 1hr15m early when were not ready to eat but were told they were busy. We ended up eating it for fear of reheating the rice and wasting the money. Naan was cold and tikka masala a bit chewy. Disappointed.

Stopped for lunch and it was quiet, but clean comfortable and nicely decorated. Food was exceptional, clearly freshly cooked not the usual any meat with a dollop of sauce. Very generous portions. Would definitely return.

Absolutely brilliant curry. We had a thoroughly nice evening at Badsha last Friday. The welcome was warm and the atmosphere was great. We all enjoyed our curry's, and I would go as far as to say probably the best curry I have had in the local area. Well done guys, keep up the good work. We will be back.

Had takeaway from here last week, but unfortunately my dish gave me Gastroenteritis that's still going strong 8 days later, so I do not feel safe ordering from here again. Supposedly in July 2023 they were give zero star food hygiene rating but have improved since, and the fact that people are STILL getting sick from their food in 2024 is disturbing and disgusting. It seems most Indian places around Tenterden are struggling with hygiene ratings since Raja got one too last year, it's not that hard to be clean guys, come on. EDIT Feb 7th: Just learnt that they just raised their inspection level to THREE STARS. After having a zero star score. Even Raja of Kent which is very nearby faced major backlash for raising themselves to four stars after their zero star rating. And the owner claims they've never had a health complaint in all the years they served? Lies. Don't come here for your own safety from that lying owner. I am still ill from it

I rarely write reviews but felt compelled to write this. We ordered a take away meal, I am a vegetarian and ordered the Vegetable Korma. I was expecting Korma sauce with chunks of veg, such as aubergine, Okra, mushrooms etc. What I received was a tub of Korma sauce with three half new potatoes, scattered with peas and beans. This is the second time this has happened. I thought I would give them one more go. My husband and son had meat curry and they thoroughly enjoyed theirs. *****for a meat curry, don't bother with vegetarian.

Read an article by Ashford Council after the FSA did routine check on hygiene and this restaurant failed dramatically. Its really sad to see that people fail to keep hygiene levels at restaurants high and risk of cross contamination and filthy floors for a good reputation. Short cuts. Feel like throwing up

From the minute we walked in the experience wasn’t what we expected for a restaurant that has won awards! We were shown to our table and before we’d even sat down we’re asked if we’d like a drink and popadoms. There was no drinks menu even given to us by this point as well so how were to know what we’d like to drink? Within 3 minutes we’d already said once we weren’t ready to order and then another waiter came over and we said again that we were not ready, popadoms were put on the table within this time also with no onion salad or lime pickle.. We shared a stater and then as my boyfriend was still actually eating his food, the waiter came over and said the mains were ready and began clearing the plates whilst he was still eating! Then the main course came.. my boyfriends food was lovely! But mine was absolutely awful, it was just tandoori chicken thrown into nothing more than a plain cream sauce. I’ve had a makhani curry numerous times, yes it’s a mild dish but this dish had no flavour, no spices and no effort actually put into it at all if I’m honest. We said the dish wasn’t what we thought so asked to swap for something else and was made to feel like I was in the wrong for not asking the waiter to explain the dish to me before ordering… I can only assume it was the manager that was shouting about us in the background, the only words we could hear in English were that he’s not accepting this and could make out the items we ordered including the bottle of white Rioja we had, this made it very clear it was about us. As a couple that work in the industry we could not believe the way the situation was handled, it’s was rude and careless. The whole experience felt rushed and we would certainly never recommend or return again!

Rang after 1 hour estimated delivery time when order still hadn't arrived. Food order via 'Just Eat' was "lost" due to an indecipherable reason. Literally live less than 5 minutes from the restaurant, yet the order took 2 HOURS to process. The worst part was that the person answering phone was so incredibly rude and dismissive despite their terrible service. When I asked about compensation, fully expecting a 10% off next order or some other standard practice for poor service I was greeted with an incredulous "What compensation!? You need to be patient. Not our problem" ...and so forth!? This restaurant needs a new person front of house. Such appalling and rude customer service. Wow.

A very mediocre experience. Biryani was lacking taste and rather disappointing, the saag paneer barely had paneer in it. Some dishes were fine, but overall, we've had better prepared dishes elsewhere. Judging from the menu, looks like they are going for quantity over quality. The takeaway was 30 mins late, even though we had ordered in advance to pick up. Guy on the front desk managing a complaint call as I walked in, seems that they have their own problems and it's having an impact on the food.

Then rushed out the door. We will not be returning!

Hair in food, + very greasy. I would normally be giving this place a 5 star. But tonight came with good and bad feelings. We have always got our Indian food here, I use to live in the highstreet so this was a regular for us . But tonight was out first time Back in 2 years since we moved and had a baby . We got a take away as its our anniversary and wanted to share tonight with our daughter at home. But the food was not up to par. Firstly the chicken tikka masala and chicken tikka with no sauce was as always delicious. But that's where it stopped tonight. The veg rice was greasy and alot of potatoes,And not a full container of rice . The saag aloo was tasteless and greasy The starter platter is not worth the money and was all very chew and greasy. Very small servings. The stuffed naan had a grey hair inside the dough so was thrown after taking just one bite. Will have to improve alot before I return again. Which is a shame as staff are very friendly and the restaurant looks amazing inside.

Not a good evening. After finishing the starter which was only average the waiter came to clean the table on doing so he knocked a glass of larger over me no apology until another waiter bought another glass of larger to replace the one knocked over. I then had to eat my main course feeling wet and uncomfortable. My friends curry was not good a chicken curry which was mainly onions with little curry sauce he complained to the waiter who picked it up and said there was nothing wrong with it so he did not eat it. On paying the bill which was 85.00 pounds I offered 65.00 pounds and said 20.00 pounds would just cover the cleaning cost of my clothes. The manager said to me i was a very nasty man and. would not except it. I then walked away and let my friends deal with the bill they paid 75.00 pounds. We will not go there again. Staff not friendly, food only average pity as it is the only Indian restaurant in Tenterden.

Really disappointed with our takeaway tonight. I used to live in Tenterden so was looking forward to a Badshah, but the cooking has really gone downhill and to top it all they forgot to include the 2 naan, so I had to go back for it! The worst item was my badami chicken - it was tasteless and almost like soup. The 2 pasandas and madras were okay (nothing special). The best bit was probably the onion bhaji.

Staff here are lovely, really friendly and helpful. Our server was quick to tell us what offers we could take advantage of which we really appreciated- wouldn't have known otherwise and always happy to save a few quid! The food itself wasn't amazing; the salad bar has massively gone down hill which is saying something. Our main meals were both lukewarm when they arrived at our table. My steak skewers tasted odd, they'd definitely used a very cheap cut of meat so they were really chewy. We've been here a few times and know not to expect anything amazing with Harvester but the standards really have dropped which is a shame. Let's hope it was an off-day!
