Food was okay, not really much to write home about but filled a hole. Took over an hour to get our starters and then another hour to get our mains. Normally I struggle to finish an Indian but I actually left hungry. It was very busy so atmosphere was okay but the whole place was freezing! I sat eating wearing a coat the whole time, 3/4 of our party were really cold and the amount you pay you’d hope they could pop on some heating

Wouldn’t normally complain but the food I have just received was vile. Chicken tikka masala tasted as though some one had sprayed perfume in it. Rice and potatoes were stale. £30 I’ll be spending else where.

Was very disappointed eating here on December 21st, ordered Ceylon curry, but no taste of coconut at all, made waiter aware of this and we accepted his answer. Though curry sauce was very nice, it’s not what was ordered? Will definitely eat here again.

When we arrived the restaurant was empty, but the staff wanted to seat up in a remote table hidden away that no one would want. In the end the staff saw sense and sat us at a much better table. Food is excellent and tasty, portions are generous. This is the second time here and it is rapidly becoming our favourite Indian restaurant in St Albans....we will be back

Absolutely disgusting toilets, You can blame the customers but you also should consider very big restaurant very busy and only one toilet only somebody with a brain would understand that you should have somebody attending to that toilet on the weekend to keep it clean make sure it's not blocked it was disgusting and it put me off the whole restaurant to be honest

I had the king prawn dansaak. My absolute favourite and have had several restaurants version over the years. The lentil sauce was delicious but was let down by the stars themselves… the king prawns! Badly overcooked, dry, not the texture of a cooked king prawn that I’ve ever eaten?! Im sorry to say that I shall not be eating that dish again!

Nice restaurant, good food. But I really don't like a service charge being added to the bill. A tip should be left to the customers descretion, and given directly to the person that served you.

Really poor customer service and attitude after I slipped on a washed floor with no sign to say so. Terrible attitude from the manager who pushed my friend.

Absolutely class dinner Knew it was going to be good when the sauces arrived with the popadoms & the tamarind sauce had a taste of ginger to it. Onion bhajis cooked to perfection. My chicken Madras flavoured beautifully with bay leaves & the sauce rich & flavoursome giving the impression the sauce had been cooked down for a while. Nan bread warm, soft & slight crunch on the outside perfect! I’m from Leeds & Mcr so know my curries this was up there with the best

We stayed with family in St Albans and we're taken to Chilli on a Saturday night. We hadn't booked but they fitted us in after a very short wait at the bar. Service was good. The food was excellent and well presented. The little food heaters on the table are a great addition. Food kept hot throughout the meal. My only criticism is, they really need to clean their windows. The cobwebs looked like something left over from Halloween! Fix it Chilli Bar!

Particularly fond of how meaty the curries are. So many other places it's a few chunks floating in sauce and you end up mostly filling up on rice to soak it up. Not here! No criticism and I'd be happy if every Indian restaurant in the world was identical to this.

We booked a large family outing to celebrate my husband's special birthday and are so glad we did. The food is absolutely delicious with some unusual combinations, e.g. chick pea tartlets and duck samosas, which were amazing. We ordered liberally across the menu (there were a lot of us!) but I have to say that all the other tables were clearly doing the same thing. Everyone was smiling as they ate, and the staff were absolutely charming. Chad, the chef-proprietor, came out to greet the birthday boy and chat with us, and then moved on to other tables. All in all, a pretty perfect evening, and we will definitely be back for more.

I know they were very busy hence they should have adjusted the expected delivery time accordingly. If a customer has to wait 2 hours (like we did), then don’t accept the order in the first place. Very poor.
