I ordered a takeaway but was disappointed with the food. The onion bhaajis were burnt and tasteless, so dry that they tasted as though they were older ones that had been deep fried - definitely not freshly made. I had to throw them away as inedible. The curries tasted very oily and glutinous, pus I had some grisly bits in the lamb. Would not go back.

Yet another excellent well prepared and presented meal. The restaurant certainly deserves to be a finalist in the Food Awards as its quality is superb. I note that some people have placed negative reviews with regards to waiting times when ordering deliveries and takeaways. The food is prepared fresh and therefore is NOT fast food as people may think when ordering on line.

So where do I start? All the staff were friendly and I'm sure they were all smiling behind their masks. We were seated quickly and just as quickly got our drinks which is nice because looking at menus is thirsty work, and because it's also hungry work we got some poppadoms and chutneys. And then the food came, and what can I say about the food? Well it was award winning, I'm not joking either just look at the wall when you go in and you'll see their awards from the last few years.So to sum it up if you are thinking about going here, don't think about it. Jump in your car and drive there now, seriously do it you wont regret it.

We used to be regular visitors at the Castle Gate when we lived in Caerphilly, but have not visited for some time. Due to covid19 they no longer have the excellent buffet but now a set menu which has a good selection.4 papadums and chutney tray was good (no lime pickle but Thai dipping sauce!).Starters were very good especially my dragon chicken.The main course was ok with fair sized portions, but chicken was tough.I thought it strange that just 5 people were dining on a Sunday evening and there was nobody waiting for take away whereas it used to be packed. So I wonder if it has changed hands? The Diet Coke was flat so there’s little change there!!!A very tall chap came to the table looked at me and said “how is your food Sir” he completely ignored my partner.After we had finished a chap with curly hair asked us if the food was ok, to which my partner said “the chicken was a bit tough”. Curly hair man said “I knew that”partner “ what you knew the chicken was tough”CHM “no I knew you were were going to complain I could tell when you came in”Curly hair man must be a guru as my partner was wearing a mask!!All in all fairly ordinary and I shan’t be going back. There are far better take aways in Caerphilly

Rang at 5:10pm to order food to be collected at 6pm. Arrived at the restaurant at 6pm and the food wasn't ready. We waited in the car for someone to bring the order out at 6:25pm and when the bag was checked, they'd only brought out half the order so we had to go in to collect the rest! No apologies for messing up our order or making us wait and as this is the second time we've rung to collect an order, and had to wait nearly half an hour both times, we won't be returning. The vegan curries were nice but the chips were really dry and poppadoms were chewy in places, as if they hadn't been cooked properly.We don't have takeaway very often so a treat once in a while is lovely, but so disappointing when it doesn't live up to expectations.

We've been here a few times and the food and staff have been outstanding. We booked on this particular occasion because I was given a £15 voucher to use by the end of November for my birthday. Food was delicious and staff were lovely. A few noisy customers which I know people did complain about but this is not the fault of the establishment. We ordered takeaway to eat the next day. My voucher was upgraded to be used by the end of December and they reduced the bill even further. We gave them a £5 tip for their excellent service. We will return here again and again.

Had takeaway this evening to celebrate wife's 40th. Very much enjoyed it, tasty bhaji's to start, followed with a chicken tikka makhani for her (not a spice fan) and a Captain Patila for me (very tasty with a hint of heat, would go for something hotter next time, but it was very flavourful), mushroom rice, and a garlic naan. Delivery was spot on time and nice and hot, perhaps the naan could have been a bit warmer but not a problem. Nice of restaurant to throw in a small gift as it was a birthday meal (a genuine Castle Gate mug!)Will visit in person for a sit down meal when Covid regs lift, good first experience of the food and service, thank you!

The food was very nice. If my review was based on the food alone I'd give it 5/5. Unfortunately it's not good enough when combined with poor service. I could get comparable quality food from a takeaway for a lot cheaper. I can totally confirm the poor service review that was published on the 17th. We were sat at our table for around 10 minutes before anyone took our order. A further 25 minutes later and our drinks hadn't been served let alone the simple starter request of popadoms and chutneys. A further 10 minutes went by..45 minutes after sitting down and no starter and then the waiter arrived with plates and asked if we were ready for the mains. The popadoms arrived at the same time. The male waiter (with a ponytail) has really good communication and was very apologetic. Unfortunately the young lady who served us had no clue about service. They didn't charge for the popadoms which was the least they could do and took £4 off the bill. I'm sure there are teething issues as they've only just reopened. It was a Saturday night so it was busy and it was also uncomfortable to see people waiting for takeaways standing directly behind people sat at tables. It was very busy for takeaways and no doubt that affected the service or lack of service. Not good enough unfortunately.

Have to say the food from this restaurant is first class. The taste, texture, loads of quality with it. Went for the Royal Maharaja (chicken dish), with Keema Rice. Stunning. My wife went for the tikka mixed grill and says it was amazing. Not greasy at all. Full of flavour.I would also like to say that this restaurant also exercises excellent social distancing when picking up a takeaway. You can go into the restaurant to collect and before you do the alcohol gels are placed outside before you go indoors. I personally think this is a better thing to do instead of having the gels inside because you need to touch the door to get in.When we have sat inside the restaurant we have always been made to feel welcome by the owner and the staff and they are rightfully proud of their displayed food awards.This is our go to Indian Restaurant and Takeaway and I hope that it will be for a very very long time yet. Looking forward to being able to sit inside the restaurant once more. Nice one guys. Mr Kevin

Castle Gate has been our go to Indian takeaway for the past year after a recommendation. The staff have always been polite and if there has been any inconvenience (e.g. delivery delays) they have been accommodating and offered extras, even though they don't have to. Last week my partner and I ordered our usual for the first time during lockdown. The delivery service was great and our food arrived a lot sooner than expected. The food was delicious! It tasted fresh and not too oily, which is what we've experienced with other Indian takeaways in the past.Whenever we have family over we usually get a Castle Gate takeaway and everyone who has stayed with us have said it's one of the best Indian takeaways they've had.

The restaurant performed extremely well under the pressure of the night I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone. They definitely serve the best curries/Indian Dishes in Caerphilly. A big 5 star rating for me; I will be returning for many meals in the future.

Visited on Valentines Day with my husband. Had a table booked & when we arrived it was utter carnage as 2 customers called Dave had gone home with the wrong Dave's order & another customer was kicking off as he had been waiting an hour for his takeaway! Eventually seated 15 mins later. There was a long wait for service and eventually got our food an hour after being seated. It is clear that it was understaffed and we were told there was staff sickness. Food was lovely couldnt fault it & we actually had quite a comical evening watching alot of people complaining about lengthy wait and getting irritated including ourselves. I would have visited again and given the place a 2nd chance until ... our bill came to £15 more than we pay at another indian which we frequent regularly. I nicely queried the bill as I had also had 15% NHS discount to which I was advised by the Manager that 'It was not a fish & chip shop love'. He then asked somebody else to sort my query out. All the other staff were lovely & he should take a leaf out of their book. I understand the manager was obviously stressed but I was very dissapointed at his rudeness & unprofessionalism. The bill was in fact incorrect and I was ignored by the manager until I challenged his behaviour prior to leaving where he did apologise. For this reason I shall not be returning!

Had another Indian here tonight, it was faultless. Meal was amazing, great value for money and a friendly service. Recommended to anyone. Certainly the best Indian around.

Absolutely appalling service that spoilt not just mine and my partners valentine's but many more that also walked out. You prioritised takeaway over people sitting in your restaurant having booked tables and spending money ordering drinks then had ordasity to try and charge for the mains that hadn't appeared after nearly a two hour wait with no sign of food other than bag after bag of takeaway food seems we would have been better off ordering to take out as people were ordering and 20 mins later walking away with their order. No apology offered just rudeness. Not a way to treat your customers remember it's your customers that leave word of mouth and customers that keep a business going.

Ordered takeaway several times from here but it wasn't until we went to another Indian takeaway that we realised the vast difference between both takeaways.

We booked a table for 8.15 on Valentines night and turned up promptly for our table. We were greeted and told "2 minutes and we will sort your table", so we took a seat and waited.

Having had a warm welcome we received very acceptable meals which all three of us enjoyed. Whilst I am not too well acquainted with Indian meals this one was one of the better ones I have had.

Adults and children had the Sunday buffet today at Castle Gate, plenty of variety for us all! They brought out fresh food regularly for everyone! Couldn’t do enough for our little children. Josh Castle was a very polite Waiter and couldn’t do enough for us. We will be visiting again soon. Thank you

Fabulous Indian restaurant in a small shopping precinct on the outskirts of Caerphilly. Friendly welcome, plenty of staff, restaurant was full with diners and people wanting takeaways - absolutely buzzing! Huge menu with some unusual choices too. Food came out really well presented and was of great quality. Plenty of it too and you could taste the spices they’d used.

Came here last Tuesday being the third time me and my girlfriend have visited and i have to say it gets better every time. The staff as always were brilliant being more than helpful and always happy to help. I have got to say to anyone who hasn’t tried the banquet night i highly recommend it, £13.50 for a five course meal, £13.50! No wonder why they got 5 awards this year! Thank you castle gate, see you soon.

Had a meal with few of the lads 10 on the 18/01/2020 and had a great night out. Waiters that were serving us did a excellent job looking after us and had no issues looking after a large group of people. The restaurant was really busy yet they managed to give our food at a timely manner. Really impressed. The manager came to check if we were having a great time and we had a chat with all the staff so yeah great night. Myself and my friends would like to give the castle Gate team a big thanks for taking care of us and we will be back very soon. This is our favourite Indian now (and we have been to a few) and we recommendes this place to all our friends and family about here and we would recommend to everyone that like a good curry and and great night out.

The service was very slow. Had the banquet as it was a Tuesday. Meat was hard and cold as we're the plates. Four adults and three children aged 9, 11 and 14. My husband's birthday so we were all looking forward to our get together. We ordered 5 meals and one child's meal . The bill came to £92.20. They charged us for 6 meals and one childs. This seems to be the norm.They charge per person ,even if like us, you share a meal I should've complained at the time but the staff were very surly and rude. We won't be visiting there again.Had to pay cash as their card machine wasn't working

We visited Castle Gate on Saturday 18th Jan, I had booked a table on line a week before for 7.30pm for 4 people, this was confirmed. From our arrival we could see it was chaos, 4 people came in without a booking and they gave them a table straight away. So we had to wait until 7.45 to be seated. Took our drink and meal order straight away we felt rushed. We had to ask for our drinks and give the order again, when they came I was given a pint glass and a can of Strongbow and left to pour it myself. We then waited and waited no starters, we complained twice and they kept saying the meals on its way. By 9pm we’d had enough and cancelled the whole order and walked out, they tried to stop us but how long do you have to wait for starter! Awful service but I think the staff are stretched. People had come in and had their meals after us that was the last straw.

Hadn't visited for a few years as not based in Risca but popped in with wife for starters and main on a Friday night. The food was extremely good value for money and good portions. For example my garlic chicken tikka starter had five pieces of chicken. The staff were very welcoming and we both left with a positive experience and as such will be looking to return. A real curry house with staff very knowledgeable about the dishes.

I placed this order before the shop had even opened you would think they could get it out on time. Food is excellent but delivery is consistently late
