This is one of my favorite Indian restaurant...Today we had Chicken 65, mutton fry, and kothu parota... so yummy. We'll come back again Highly recommend

Felt like home after a long search.staff are polite and friendly.Will definitely come back and recommend.10/10

We are regulars here and such delicious food with no compromise on the authenticity nor the spice level which I love so much!! Of course they offer to modify the spice level accordingly to your tolerance level. PS. Im very much excited for the opening of South Indian right across. Been to Chili's since day one and am happy to see you guys are expanding!! Well Deserved👌🏽

Food good. Although Make sure you mention your spice tolerance level when ordering food. We tried indochinease street food, and liked it. Food was freshly cooked and well presented.

Excellent hospitality, great food,lovey staff, very authentic flavours.we be to lot of restaurants in reading.. chilis is better option for indian and Indo - Chinese.. Highly recommend.

I had high hopes for this restaurant, but unfortunately, it was a letdown. The soup was bland, the staff was Charming ambiance and friendly service made for a delightful dining experience

Order any damn thing on their menu and I bet it tastes delicious. Loved the Lamb kalimirch! & Lamb dum biryani!

Probably one of the best South Indian starters I have had in the last few years

Chilis serves the best Indian food in Reading. The dishes are so authentic it felt like we were transported back to India. Visited the restaurant multiple times in the past months and the food was consistently top-notch. Starter dishes deserve a special mention and there’s so much variety to choose from. Service is prompt and the owners/staff make you feel very welcome. They also helped with food recommendations. The restaurant ambience is lovely making it an ideal spot for a night out with family or friends.

Really good food and taste. Highly Recommend.

We really enjoyed this place, amazing food !!

Amazing flavors, fresh and authentic Indian, Indo Chinese food. Simply the best in town.

No restaurant parking, have to park and pay for street parking. Starters were okay however the main course was disappointing, ordered chicken biryani which lacked taste and the chicken pieces were too big. No mock tails available just basic drinks like soft drinks and more. Overall not a pleasant experience and wouldn’t return again

One of the best authentic Indian meals I have had. This is not a typical UK curry house, they are serving fresh well cooked traditional Hyderabad style dishes. Mutton Fry and a proper butter chicken (not the sweet bright red stuff you see in many places) were highlights. Roti and naan light crispy and soft made in a proper tandoor oven. It’s hard to find which I think doesn’t help the vibe here which is the only slight let down, but if everyone who goes tells someone I think it’ll be super busy as the food is exceptional.

Very delicious food, amazing service. My family enjoyed alot.

This has been the BEST place. We ordered paneer tikka and biryani... absolutely divine. Gautami attended and helped us with the orders and she is such a lovely young gal who will be able to suggest exactly what your palate needs!

Fantastic food. Great presentation as well

Wonder service and great food and dining experience with family. Highly recommend.

The overall experience is very pleasant. The spice levels in the dishes is apt. They have a large variety of dishes available for both veg and non veg people.

A nice spot for Indian cuisine. The flavours are well-balanced, and there are a variety of dishes.

Delicious food and amazing service

Awesome food. Best I have had in Reading. Keep up the great work.

Great food. A new favourite of mine in Reading

Very good food and friendly service

Very good Resturant the food was excellent.

The real and authentic taste of Indian food in Reading. The chef Maruti is awesome and the whole staff is very committed on providing the right experimce

Very good authentic flavours and excellent delicious food ….thanks to Maruti chef for his recommendations

Amazing staff. We managed to reach just before 3pm and they still served us with smiles. Great indo Chinese options for vegetarians.

Loved the food. It was spicy which is something you don't really get that much. Loved the service. Had to wait for 30 mins as it was very busy but the food made it worthwhile.

Delicious food with authentic flavors, especially the chicken Dum biriyani and chillie chicken. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Been here twice, lovely place. Food has been great on both occasions. Highly recommend

Had a lovely team lunch at Chillis. Huge portions for both starter and mains.

The food is as very nice and we enjoyed the hospitality. Nice to come with the family.

Very good food, rich ambiance. Delicious food.

Gautami took care of us with utmost care and attention. Food was excellent! would defo come back

Brilliant food. Masala fish & Biryani was absolutely superb!!

A very good address The welcome is perfect and the dishes are as tasty as they are plentiful.

Really awesome food. Very flavoursome and excellent service. Very friendly. Highly recommend it for authentic Hyderabadi food.

Great food and service as always.

Excellent food and outstanding service Great ambience

Took ages to bring the food, very high price and services charge on top ripp off

Chili's is great for meeting up with friends, at a warm inviting place, to eat delicious food with attentive service😊 We keep bringing a different set of friends to try Chili's food because we enjoy it so much and then our friends do too, so they bring their friends😊 We are looking forward to our next visit😊

After hearing so much about this place from friends, I decided to check it out with my family. The food has a good flavor, and the cooking style is authentically South Indian, but the quality of the ingredients is disappointing. The chicken tasted like it had been sitting in the freezer for ages before cooking, and while the spices tried to cover it up, the stale flavor was unmistakable. I also tried the Andhra Chepala Pulusu (takeaway), and the fish had the same issue. It feels like they’re prioritizing using up old frozen meat instead of ensuring freshness. Honestly, it’s not a place I’d return to, even though the recipes themselves are spot-on. Fresh ingredients would make a difference and good for restaurant.

Excellent service excellent food Excellent people

All the times we are getting authentic Indian taste and spices we want. Happy to recommend.

Fantastic experience, food is awesome.

i love dis food specialy chilis Indian👌🏻thank you so much Gouthami for good service

A really authentic Indian restaurant. Amazing serive and great food. I asked for a vegetable korma that wasn't on the menu and they made me thr most delicious korma! And the naan bread is one of the best I've tasted. I'd go back!

The restaurant is located at the heart of reading, with amazing food that takes me back to India. Unlike other restaurants where they play around with similar curry base with meat options , here even the curry base differs from one to another. They have retained the authentic flavors and the chef special masala’s giving me a feel of my mothers cooking. Another thing that stands out is the warm, personal touch from its owners, who are deeply involved in both the kitchen and the dining experience. Their commitment to quality, tradition, and hospitality is evident from the moment you walk in. Truly a must visit

Service charge of 12.5% is absolutely a rip off on top of a high priced menu. If your service charge is mandatory then it should be included in your menu so that customers are aware. Food was decent and friendly service

Such a nice ambiance and yummy delicious food and drinks , really loved it .

Service time was very extremely slow and needs improvement. We went here on a busy Saturday night and were seated near the front door beside the bar. Took more than 20mins for our order to be taken and then another 30 or so minutes between finishing our appetisers and main course. Wait time for the check was also very long and had to keep trying to flag staff from behind the bar as we were totally forgotten. No faults with the food, which was excellent. Chilli corn and butter chicken was amazing. Spent over 100£ with a 12.5% service charge which seemed very unfair for bad service. They also need to change the front door hinge, which when opened closes very slowly and lets in cold air.

Beautiful Indian food, each dish has its own individual taste/flavour very well presented, accommodating to variations on requests of dishes. Had an extremely enjoyable evening. Absolutely great food

Excellent and authentic Indian food . Really enjoyed .

The food was amazing… And the service is incredible.

Chilies is the best restaurant I recently tried. I had Chettinad Fish Curry and naan roti, which were delicious, and also tried mutton kothu and chicken kothu, both of which were extraordinary. Highly recommended

Food is just amazing, delicious food which roots to native Hyderabadi restaurant style.

Amazing experience, chicken butter and mango lassi are most try

Good service and atmosphere as well

Fantastic!! Had a superb meal and the Gouthami team were lovely. It is a must, with a huge choice of food. Thank you

One of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been to. The atmosphere was really beautiful and the food was delivered in a few minutes since our order . U NEED TO GO

Great place to eat at. Had a wonderful experience, and previously been here too. Beautiful experience. Thank you!

As someone who always plays safe at an Indian restaurant (tikka masala, rice, bhajis), the menu was a bit of an eye opener. With it being so deep and varied, the whole table opted to be adventurous and it was well worth it - I certainly enjoyed my Chicken Fry starter and Gongura Lamb! The portions were very generous; we all struggled to clear our plates. The service was great, very attentive but allowed us to go at our own pace, even with the restaurant full. And pricewise was very reasonable at £40 a head considering we each had a starter, main with rice and bread, and two drinks. If you fancy something more authentic, definitely give this place a look. I'd recommend booking as was very busy from about 8pm. And treat yourself to a Thumbs Up, its a local brand of cola by Coca-Cola but tastes totally different 👍🏻

Food and the abience was good. We really enjoyed it

Gouthami was brilliant. Great day. Thank you

Fantastic Indian food. Highly recommend ..

Gouthami was brilliant!! The food was excellent!!! Will be back!!!

The Food was spectacular. If you want to enjoy authentic Hyderabadi food in Reading, this is the place to go. The family is very friendly and top notch hospitality-wise. Overall had a great experience.

Went in there on a date with the wife. We went there close to their noon closing time. But they were cordial and took us in anyway - with the promise to order quickly. We did so. The service and the ambience was lovely. The food was overall okay. The only thing that did not live up to the expectations was the fish starter - masala fish. It turned out to mild tasting fish pakoda. But in grand scheme of things this was a tiny niggle. Overall the food was great. Would visit yet again.

Lovely food and staff attentive. Would highly recommend 👌

We were going to this restaurant in Newbury in the past and now in Reading ... same as before, great tasty food , atmosphere and service..

I usually don’t prefer lamb, being more used to Indian mutton, but Anjin recommended I try their lamb biryani. I went for it, and honestly, I was blown away—probably the best biryani I’ve had in ages. Not sure if I can go back to chicken biryani now! Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection. Big thanks to Anjin, Krishna and Anusha for the amazing hospitality. Hope you guys open a branch in London soon!

Deliciously good and very good service

Food is delicious and makes me feel like I’m in India. Service and atmosphere are great. It’s my all time favourite!

Best Indian restaurant in Reading by a mile. Amazing food, service, and atmosphere. A must go if you like a good curry!

The food was exceptionally amazing! Friendly and good service! Excellent ambience, suitable for celebration. Must try Paneer Mongolian, Prawn Papper Fry, and Fish Tikka!

Very tasty food but including 12% service charge, it was very pricy.

Always feel like I'm eating a hearty home meal

Great kerala fish curry, lamb briyani and service! My girlfriend couldn't eat much spicy but they took care of that so well 😁

Reminds me of home :) staff were lovely

Visited for the first time due to a business trip. Excellent food and service. Will certainly return next time in Reading. Highly recommend 👍

Lovely food and great atmosphere

Nice food, nice service and nice environment

Great atmosphere good service, they even gave us free Ice cream after meal

Brilliant Indo Chinese food. Very nice service.

£100 for 2 portions of veg noodles, 3 portion of veg soup, 1 portion of chilli chicken and 1 portion of fish Amritsari. Food was tasty but too pricey!! Not impressed.

Incredible food . Best food I’ve had in UK in 3 years.

Excellent quality food. The food was delicious, the service was wonderful. Would definitely return.

Beautiful place with beautiful shutters for windows. They took a lot of thought to make this place food was excellent and service was very good would recommend

They should offer something to empty your stomach in a friendly way. The food is soo fricking good I wish I was able to keep on eating.

I had chicken 65 and murgh kalimirch….absolutely tasty and all of the staff were amazing. Riti absolutely amazing with her suggestions and all of the dishes she suggested were amazing. Will come back.

One of the best Indian restaurants I’ve ever been to anywhere in the world. Food was phenomenal and accessibility for my handicapped wife was wonderful.

So happy to have found this restaurant. Great food, service and atmosphere, will definitely return very soon
