Blue Orchid in Coventry

Food is always great from here, highly recommend

We started ordering takeaway from here after a bad experience with our usual place. The food is much better than expected. Their chips in particular, are far nicer than any of the Chinese restaurants.

Delicious food. Always fresh and surprisingly tasty

Food was excellent enjoyed it and everyone got what they wanted

Away with work and googled this place. Food is out of this world. Has a nice spice to it. Staff friendly and happy to help with your order or suggestions. Nice beers and amazing food. Bar staff was very helpful

I have been to the Blue Orchid a couple of times and either if I have Thai or Indian the food is really nice. The service is also very good, friendly staff. I would give 4 stars instead of 5 only for the amount of time it takes for the main dishes to be served.

Lovely restaurant, stumbled upon it whilst attending the theatre. Food was amazing, staff very friendly and helpful.

Amazing quality of food and flavours

As a regular customer of Blue Orchards, I have always been satisfied with the quality of the food. However, during my last visit, I had a very unpleasant experience. The dish I ordered was clearly off, which resulted in a stomach upset. Additionally, I noticed a kitchen staff member smoking a cigarette right at the kitchen entrance, which had a direct impact on the air quality inside. Due to these incidents, I cannot recommend this restaurant and I will not be returning.

"Until recently, I have always had a positive opinion of Blue Orchards. As a regular customer, I appreciated the high standard of the food served. However, my last visit changed my mind completely. The dish I ordered was unfortunately inedible, which resulted in serious stomach problems. Furthermore, while in the restaurant, I witnessed a very unsanitary behavior of one of the kitchen staff, who was smoking a cigarette right at the entrance to the kitchen. Such a situation is unacceptable and poses a serious health risk to customers. Therefore, I cannot recommend this restaurant and I will not be returning. I hope that the restaurant management will take appropriate steps to improve the quality of service and ensure the safety of its customers."

I recently dined at Blue Orchid Thai and Indian Restaurant, and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. While I was initially drawn in by the diverse menu and the promising reviews, my visit took a turn for the worse. After enjoying a few dishes, I began to feel unwell later that evening. To my dismay, I ended up experiencing food poisoning, which was not only uncomfortable but also quite distressing.

Food was disgusting, inedible, sweet and instantly made me threw up in a restaurant toilet. Very dirty place, I won’t be coming back ever. Stay away if you don’t want to experience food poisoning 🤮

I recently dined at this restaurant and found the food to be excessively sweet, both in the Indian and Thai dishes. When we requested that the chef reduce the sweetness, the response was to simply add more spices, which did not address the issue. Unfortunately, all the plates of food remained untouched, and we had to pay for all anyway. Overall, it was a disappointing experience.

"We ordered curry and Pad Thai, but the food was incredibly sweet. When we told the staff, they took the plates away and brought them back, only seasoned with some hot spice. We didn't eat any of it, but we were still charged for it. The staff were very rude. I would not recommend this place and I will not be returning. I was very disappointed."

Came here with family and everything was amazing. The food was great. The staff are so friendly and polite. They even warned us on how spicy the food that we ordered was. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back in the future.

The two starters came out after 45 minutes with mains coming out over 40 minutes after that. At this point we were all starving. The food was good however we pointed out when ordering that one of the diners was allergic to peas and we were assured that would be taken care of. When the food arrived the rice they had ordered had peas in it which was very disappointing considering the time we had waited as well as their allergy not being noted. Overall, we won’t be visiting again as the service was poor with no indication when the food would be arriving.

Quiet place. food was okay ! they accommodated us well even if they were nearing to the closing time

I can’t recommend the Thai food. The pad Thai I had was very oily and didn’t taste authentic. Service was fine. Free parking outside restaurant

Tried thai curry and rice quantity was on the higher side, taste was good. Service was good. Price wise it was a bit expensive. They have the policy of each should order one main course on a non sharing basis, considering the quantity they serve this policy can be changed to avoid waste of food

Delicious fresh food, attentive staff, really clean, food well presented, great atmosphere, the staff really could not do enough

Order delivered promptly. Beef massuman and Thai sticky rice. Generous portions and delicious food. Will definitely order from here again.

Had a meal on 16th June for my husbands 80th birthday, with my family. Lovely food we all had. Two really nice young men serving us. Very nice surroundings. Definitely recommend this restaurant. We will all be going again. An absolute pleasure being there .

Nice restaurant but we didn’t particularly enjoy our Thai food. We usually go to a Thai restaurant rather than a mix of Indian & Thai. The portions were excellent & presented well but it wasn’t authentic enough for us. The staff were very friendly & attentive. Maybe we should have chose to have Indian food instead.

Horrible experience, thought initially I won't review but thinking that if I won't share my experience it's not fair ...we went there yesterday for dinner and the person whom we were attended by was very rude,poor customer service and his attitude was unbearable made our day bad,will never ever recommend this place to anyone, he is in a profession where he should treat every one good but the way he dealt was so bad.....food also came very late,he didn't come once to let us know that it's going to be late ,after waiting for long we had to ask him, that is thoroughly unprofessional......I hope he never repeat this and be true to his profession as that matters a lot....people go out with friends, family to have a good vibe, but our was negative, I wish we went somewhere else....Will never go to this place.

I would just like to start off by saying this was the best Indian food I’ve EVER had. The service was absolutely amazing, our waiter was so polite and attentive, stocking up our drinks and the food was incredible. The salmon tikka masala was incredible. So flavourful and the virgin mojito was delicious. My partner had chicken jalfrezi and I tried some too it was just delicious. I simply cannot fault the service or food this is a true hidden gem. We are visiting the area and would definitely come back just for this food! To all the staff at blue orchid thankyou so much for being so kind and the chefs are very talented! A must try!!!

The food and service were excellent. A group of ten of us dined. We had both Thai and Indian dishes and everyone enjoyed their meal. Staff were quick with the drinks and the food. The restaurant doesn’t look much from the outside but don’t let that put you off. The food is excellent. All round good value

Just had a delivery from Blue orchid got to say delivery on time & food amazing will definatelyrecommend and order agsin

When requesting Madras hot it was not spicy but very salty making it unedible

Good food and polite staff. However, we ordered our food on the website at about 6.15pm to pick it up at 8pm. I even got a call to confirm this, but when I arrived it wasn't ready and waited around 15 mins for it, which is way longer than I'd have expected when they had so long to prepare.

As always lovely food. Delivery on time to a very difficult location.

Top notch food and service. I would unreservedly recommend this to all. The service is second to none. Decor and ambience is top quality.

really great service and great tasting food

Thai curry is basically a blind spot! It's really delicious, and Butter Chiken is also delicious in Indian cuisine. For other Indian dishes, those who are afraid of spicy food need to pay attention to the chili symbol on the menu, but they all taste really good. And the service attitude is very, very good, the price is not expensive, and there is even a free parking space. Thai curry is a safe bet! It's really delicious, and the Butter Chicken in Indian cuisine is also very tasty. For other Indian dishes, those who are sensitive to spice should pay attention to the chilli symbols on the menu, but the flavors are indeed superb. Moreover, the service is extremely good, the prices are reasonable, and there's even free parking available.

Beautiful place and excellent service

If you want a certi curry in Cov, this is the one. Amazing value aswell 🤤

Ordered a takeaway tonight and collected from the restaurant. A mixture of Thai and Indian food and all the dishes were fantastic! There is always consistency, quality and quantity and will be visiting again! Family members that had never been to the restaurant before were really impressed. The staff yet again were absolutely awesome, really friendly and accommodating whilst we had a drink whilst waiting for the food which was within the time provided! :-)

Amazing restaurant with amazing staff. The food is a wonderful offering of both Thai and Indian cuisine. The customer service was outstanding. The food is lovingly prepared by both authentic Thai and Indian chefs. The only downside is that we live in London and so too far to visit as often as we would like!

Our favourite place to eat out. Amazing food, and been around 10 times and never been disappointed.

not the same standard of food as i have received for many years. you can tell either the chef or manager/owner has left. not cheap either. portions smaller not the worst food but not as good as it was in its day

Ate Indian cuisine on a Saturday evening - other places further in city centre were fully booked. It's great here, they deserve a higher rating in my opinion. The indoor ambience defies the building's exterior. Don't be put off by its location. Service is good and food is very tasty. Clean and welcoming.

Ordered the Tom Kai soup and that was amazing but then moved o to the Pad sE ew and it’s basically so sticky I can hardly separate the noodle and it seems to be lacking in any kind of juice or flavour. All I taste is the oil on the fried tofu. Shame as the soup was a strong start.

The dishes are good, well cooked and tasty. The service is also ok, although I think they could be more friendly, I had the impression they just didn’t care that much.

In Coventry for a week on business and this place was so nice visited twice! Great food, good prices and the best staff - don’t hesitate visit this restaurant and you’ll enjoy

Ordered from here a few times now, and it seems to be a decent Thai place. The battered veg starter could do with being crisper, so would recommend the sweetcorn patties instead. Decent website ordering and polite delivery folk.

Food was delicious as always. The delivery driver was very kind and well mannered

hair on my plate!!and they implied I was lying because the waiter was bald! Was the chef also bald? the manager never came!

Food was delicious! So fresh and flavoursome 🤩 best Thai red curry I've had in Cov 👍👍

We were in Coventry for the weekend and saw this restaurant serves Thai and Indian cuisine so we thought we would try it and WOW. The food was incredible, my husband said it was the best Madras he had EVER had, I had a yellow Thai curry which was delicious. The food was faultless and so was the service, especially from Jay. We will definitely be coming back up from London to eat here. If you haven't tried this place, you really should.

Perfect indian &Thai restaurant in Coventry.

Ordered from here twice, last night being the most recent. Superb fresh food both times, lovely seafood. We look forward to future orders and dining in person in future.

I was at blue orchid for my birthday dinner. The food was average but a few days later, i received a parking ticket. I had parked in the restaurant premises and was shocked because no one at the restaurant mentioned a thing about parking. I reqched out to the restaurant but they were unwilling to assist in resolving the issue despite having a receipt and bank statement showing expenses made at the restaurant on the said day. I have had to pay a lot more due to their nonchalance.

Absolutely superb the food was quickly served, hot and delicious. The menu is varied and imaginative. And the portions were a good size. However, what made it even better were he attentive staff, pleasant and genuinely fun to talk to. Well done. Highly recommended.

Fab fab fab the best indian ever 10/10 just the round the corner from the ramada , we had drinks starters & popadams chutney tray and mains and it was exquisite you won't go wrong here :)

Lovely Thai food with a good, efficient service and good atmosphere on a busy pre-Christmas Friday night. This is one place that can always be relied on to deliver good quality.

I went for a Christmas dinner with work colleagues. The service was on the very high standards, the food was really good served for everyone in the same time, which I really appreciate. I can still feel the taste of amazing and spicy Tom Som salad and Tom Yum soup. I was impressed of this place. Really , really good. I recommend this place , 5 stars from me. If you like Indian, Thai, Asian food - visit this place.

As a family we have had birthdays and quiet nights here for years. Great food, run by a great and helpful family, never had a bad trip there. Love it

Amazing place , service was on point and foot was top notch. 5 stars for me.

The food and service were excellent and I will be going back. Update: I went back and it was better this time, everyone loved the food and the staff were really good.

Fantastic night celebrating my 60th birthday with family, 15 of us ordered and the food all came out together and was so good. Would definitely recommend 👌

Great experience, food excellent at reasonable prices, I would recommend 100%.

I love the Massaman curry with Tofu I cannot get enough of this curry especially paired with the coconut rice. I wish they did juices to go with them but the food is so great. Thank you Blue Orchid.

Went here for a meal as a couple. The service was excellent, very friendly and polite staff and the service was fast. We ordered popadoms to start then a veggie green curry with coconut rice as a main. I didn’t think the rice tasted of coconut but other than that the food was good. The green curry was fairly spicy considering it is listed as mild.

Fantastic, as always! Our favourite place to go and eat as a family. Food and service exceptional.

this was the best place i have ever ate in my life it is an absolute must to come here and i will be returning it is not over priced for what u get

Over one hour wait for food that was not great. Virgin mojito is lemonade with blue colouring

I ordered delivery and it was tasteless. We both got phad graprow, the chicken was insanely dry and nothing was seasoned at all. We had to add seasonings ourself. One of the worst takeaways I’ve had in a long time.

A very nice Thai and Indian selection at a restaurant that's generally a hidden gem tucked away just out of the main town centre. Everytime I've been there has been quiet (in the sense of, there's groups there but no rowdiness) which makes for a good setting for a get together. Prices are reasonable too and service is okay.

Great quality food, good prices and clean and tidy well decorated restaurant 👍

Amazing food very delicious 100% Lovely , clean presentation ✅ very nice, I absolutely recommend this to anyone who likes Asian cuisine

Had such a lovely evening at blue orchid! Food was absolutely beautiful and staff were lovely! Will definitely eat here again! Can’t recommend enough

Thankyou to all the staff for working so hard and making my husbands 50th Birthday a success. Food was outstanding . Thankyou.

Really helpful staff thank you Jay, dishes altered to your taste and beautiful.

If you have an allergy or food intollerance avoid this place like the plague. Upon visiting the welcome was cold but I had assumed due to being in a large group, upon ordering the drink order I placed was ignored and never came to the table, fortunately I was also not charged for this. The real issue is when I placed my food order I informed staff about my allergy which I was then informed would not be of concern as no peanuts were used in the product. When the food arrived upon tasting it I knew immediately there had been an issue. I spoke to staff and was brushed off and ignored. They claimed that A) I was lying about my allergy and B) I had not informed them of said allergy. Please if you have an allergy I would recommend eating elsewhere.

We ordered a takeaway from here, the food was really tasty! Everything tasted so fresh and full of flavour. We ordered scallops, which even though we're delivered, were cooked perfectly and very fresh! A bit more expensive than a normal takeaway, but the quality was definitely worth it!

Very delicious food... Must try once

Always amazing food and service. The atmosphere isn't always the best as it can be quiet, especially early evenings

We were there for dinner. Food quantity was less with high prices. Staff was rude. Don't want to go there again. Just waste our time and money there.

At the beginning it was off to a shaky start, as me and my wife weren't sure if it would be good. It was when we realised that they served Indian food too, and didn't want it to be one of those establishments that do one cuisine excellent and the other cuisine at an average level which for us could have been Thai food. We wanted reassurance of what meats were on Halal, so I asked the waiter and at first it sounded like a lot of the meat options I usually eat were not Halal, the guy explained it to us and said "maybe some things are halal", which wasn't very helpful as I needed certainty of what was Halal for my consumption. I called over another waiter and he was better able to explain and communicate with us what was Halal. In the end when the food arrived, it just became an amazing experience purely because the food just was cooked with care and flavour, where all I could focus on was what I had on my plate. The Red Thai curry with King Prawns is a real iconic dish and I will definitely be coming back for it.

Great food. Been to many places in cov. Highly recomend this place for quality of food and confidence in chef. Jamal was great i would trust his recomendations when ordering Great service ☆☆☆☆☆ A must try is malaysian king prawn, and no7 and 8 on starters Ambience is nice Will def be visiting again soon

Went for a family birthday total bill was £180 food was mediocre, atmosphere was dyer and service was poor? Had problems putting my reg number into the parking machine and got hit with a £100 pound fine. Even though I was a paying guest and was able to produce a receipt and a bank statement still had to pay? Total cost of the visit £280 would not recommend or visit this restaurant ever again. There’s far better restaurants in the area with free parking please be aware.

Came here luckily after a nearby restaurant we originally planned to go to was fully booked. Glad we came here service was phenomenal food was piping hot and they really really looked after us when in the area next will definitely come for food

Fantastic service. The food was delicious. Choice of Thai or Indian. Love the decor. Definitely recommend. Will be going back!

Outstanding food and service worth every penny.

Food 10/10 service 10/10 atmosphere 10/10 it was my first time here but will certainly not be my last ,highly recommended

Whether your dining in or having a take-out the Blue Orchid delivers first class tasty food. Our extended family orders a mix of Thai and Indian food and everyone commented on how lovely the food was....it was simply delightful and delicious

Food is ok, nothing extraordinary and a little bit expensive in my opinion

Good food and very pleasent staff

Visit 13th April 2023 "Blue Orchid" Our family recommended Blue Orchid and as we love Thai food so as we booked a table. It brought back fabulous memories of our many visits to Thailand. We were attended to and served quickly. The menu has a great variety of choice options. My choice was "Mussaman Curry", it was oh so tasty and spicy as I had hoped. The food was so tasty. Our waiters were very friendly and efficient. The decor has a Thai ambiance. The loos were spotless. Altogether a most enjoyable visit, we will be back. Thank you so much.

Soups were great with seafood. Packages were jammed packed but still a bit pricey. Good though, would eat again

Just had an amazing Thai curry here, one of the best ive had and very generous portions, my husband had a tandoori duck curry which he said was amazing too ( I tasted it and it was! ) the staff were very nice, and attentive, nice atmosphere, and we were served quickly even though itcwas busy. We only popped in without reservation on an off chance, and they accommodated us readily.

Went midweek so it was quite and therefore lacking in any real atmosphere, the food was great, but not standout excellent. Friendly attentive staff.

Food was outstanding and lovely waiters. Very understanding and they catered to my needs expertly. Very happy with the service

It took more than 30 minutes to get our starter, even though the restaurant was full when we went there. Even though the waiters appeared warm, they didn't apologise for the long delay for our starter or main. In fact, when I investigated the delay, I was told by one member of staff that my order was written on paper and was accidentally dumped - I don't mind such mistake being made, but there was no apology or a good will gesture. The restaurant has potential if the necessary improvements are made. Be aware that the portion sizes of starters are small and they are a bit pricey. I would suggest you visit and see things for yourselves as you could have a great time.

We ordered a take away from blue orchid as have been to the restaurant before and enjoyed the food. We ordered through the restaurant website and our order hasn’t been received when I called an hour after the order , it took a further hour tor the food to arrive. At almost 10 pm (2 hours late) we didn’t want to food anymore. We will certainly not be ordering from blue orchid online again.

Order a collection, and they didn't assume I was working for a delivery service. Staff is amazing, so polite and professional. The food is constantly fantastic, it tases so good it must be fresh top quality ingredients. Just go and enjoy the food and service 🥳👍🏽

Had the Valentines dinner here, second year in a row. Very lovely atmosphere. Staff are very professional. Good drinks.

The worst Thai chicken curry ever. The chicken tasted like rubber. Absolutely disgusting. When I straight away handed that back in together with the egg fried rice which was also not good the Waiter started shouting at me saying he had just checked and the...

Absolutely lovely Atmosphere is great Clean and tidy restaurant Lovely staff Food was really good and served really well

My partner and I dined here yesterday with our son who is in Uni digs close by. We didn't have a reservation but werr made very welcome by the staff who were really friendly and kind as I dithered over what to choose! We had Thai starters followed by Indian mains and sides - The food was delicious with generous portions! We also had a couple of bottles of house red which was really nice. The food offered amazing value - I chose a mixed serving of chicken tikka with lamb bhuna, each curry was a decent portion and cost less than £14 for the pair! I Would definitely eat here again, wish it was my local!

I popped in on the off chance as I stayed in the Ramada which is virtually next door. I read reviews on other similar restaurants and chose here. So glad I did. Very friendly reception by the staff and shown to the table. Love the...
