Chillies Indian Fusion in Chelmsford

Saturday evening, busy as usual. Food excellent, well cooked tasty and hot. Good customer service and all staff plesent. closes at 11pm weekdays and later weekends. Always our first choice in SWF.

We had a fabulous meal in chillies, when we visited our daughter and son in law, delicious curries and tandoori dishes, tantalising veg dishes, service was impeccable , couldn’t fault anything, everything was perfect, we live in grays, with a few Indian restaurants around, but nothing matches chillies,thank you kam for a wonderful evening, will definitely be returning

Enjoyed another fabulous evening at Chillis with the family. The service from all of Kam’s team is excellent. The menu has more selection than any other Indian restaurant I’ve been to and it’s always cooked to perfection. It’s without doubt the best Indian restaurant for miles, love eating there and would definitely recommend to everyone

The best Indian in the UK! Incredible tasting food. Huge portion sizes. And the friendliest and kindest staff. The place can not be faulted! Anytime we visit Essex, we go out of our way to eat at Chillies!

Best Indian in south woodham Ferrers. Kam and his team are always very welcoming and look after us. We won’t go anywhere else

A busy Saturday night, greeted by Kam and his staff, staff always attentive to our needs, and reasonably priced great food. Looking forward to the next one, ask Kam for his recommendations, often something different, but always something good!

Visited this restaurant on a Saturday night, and had such a great experience, the food was absolutely delicious really enjoyed every mouthful,, the service was impeccable, loved every minute, highly recommend, can’t wait to return

Well...just got back this Thursday evening from this fantastic restaurant where the two of us...had a wonderful fusion meal. I highly recommend menu numbers 51 and 54. Not only was the food absolutely wonderful and faultless...but our evening made so pleasant and happy by the two hosts that served us with a smile and great conversation. This is not something often found in restaurants of this cuisine. This restaurant is a gem. I recommend it for its food , hospitality and great value for money. We will be back soon. Many thanks. Paul

Another excellent dining experience at Chillies. A friendly greeting from Kam and his staff, excellent service, and more importantly fantastic food! Try a Kam Special, - soft lamb chilli balti with special tamarind sauce, you won’t be disappointed! Eat in or takeaway, never a bad meal, thoroughly recommended.

Fantastic food brilliant service and a warm welcoming atmosphere nothing too much trouble the staff excellent brilliant service First choice dining

Went with a couple that attend Chillies regularly and found Cam and his staff very accommodating, ordered a starter off menu which they were happy to do (and was simply yummy) and then tried their new Machado Chicken which was delicious. All in all felt looked after and contently full by the end of the evening. Great place to eat :-)

This was the first time we have tried this restaurant ordered on line no problem and sent a time for collection and was ready when I arrived I ordered the chillies special with keema rice and prawn on purée to start the chillies special was described you must try this chicken prawns lamb with spicy potato in a sauce finished with spinach and coriander it was more like a lot of spinach with a dash of meat a couple of prawns and little sauce it also didn’t taste good I’m afraid it went in the bin the wife had something different and didn’t find hers too bad but I won’t visit again.

Lovely evening spent at The Mango. Excellent food, very attentive staff. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Fantastic night with family Harry went above and beyond making sure we were happy and looked after very attentive staff warm friendly atmosphere would highly recommend. Paul from Birmingham.

Visited on a sat night, lovely atmosphere, food was sensational, so tasty, really good portions and really memorable, service was impeccable, waiters are always happy and friendly, nothing is too much trouble for them, loved every minute, been there lots of times, and it never fails to amaze me, thank you kam and your team, looking forward to coming back soon

Everyone has their favourite takeaway they religiously frequent. We can say ours would normally be Chinese. But, we have strayed and could be swayed! Yum. So many distinctive flavours. We find one curry can taste similar to the next but we are very pleasantly surprised. Tried the chefs specials, a range of starters and a few vegetarian dishes and so excited to say we enjoyed our choices. Absolutely going to order more vegetarian dishes in the future - even the potatoes some how tasted good and cooked to perfection Really happy with the price and quality, our next takeaway will be Chillies.

This was the first time visiting Chillies which was on recommendation by other family members. The food was really tasty and there is a wide ranging menu which is a little bit different to most Indian restaurants which makes me want to return soon. Lovely, lively atmosphere even midweek when we visited. Would suit celebrations or friends and family get togethers

Been to a few different places in woodham over the years but Chilli's is by far the best. Most accommodating and most personal service to match the excellent food that is served for any occasion

Excellent original food - loved it - staff helpful and friendly - very good restaurant - menu has some really interesting and different things.

I have dined at this restaurant a handful of times over the years as mostly have their takeaway. Went out to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and had an amazing time. The staff are so tentative and was clear that all who dined there had a great rapport with the staff. Aside from the service, the food is brill. Will most definitely make more of an effort to dine in going forward!

We have been fans of Chillies for years especially since we moved back to SWF in 2014. In all that time and all our visits we have never had a bad meal. We feel like valued friends whenever we visit as the service is fantastic. There is a wonderful atmosphere and a varied menu .. I love the mango korma, lamb bhuna and chicken tikka biryani ... Hubby loves the tandoori mixed grill, henna's dream, chicken tikka. Many of our friends are also avid fans and regulars. It has become a bit of a new years eve tradition to meet up at chillies for a final Indian meal before welcoming in the new year.

Excellent First ever visit and will definitely return and would also like to dine on but we are in lockdown. Very professional, although only takeaway all members of staff were wearing shirt and tie and looked very smart. Phone call to pre order was dealt with efficiently and friendly. Upon arrival to collect I received a friendly welcome. My food was ready. The food was excellent 10/10. Will be my number one 'Go to'

(Daniel Bedingfield) Everybody's struggling during lockdown, so I'm making a point of using local independent bars and restaurants rather than national chains. Recently I've enjoyed meals from Kam and his team at Chillies in South Woodham Ferrers, eat-in, takeaway and delivery. The meals have all been excellent, even ordering 'off menu' their Chicken Shatkora is great, delivery and collection has always been timely and eat in has been well organised in trying times. I look forward to returning when things get easier.

The food here is amazing, the staff are always friendly and happy to help. they have done amazing in these difficult times. I won't go anywhere else! first class service every time!

We had an outstanding meal here, the night before complete lockdown! The restaurant was busy as usual, service was outstanding, the waiters were extremely friendly and couldn’t do enough for us! We could have chose anywhere but decided on Chillies as we wanted our final meal to be relaxed, and memorable for all the right reasons. The food was served full of flavour and we are still dreaming of the taste now! Longing to come back’ This restaurant closes at 10pm in line with the government rules, at no point did we feel rushed, we actually left the restaurant at 9.58pm, after having the perfect evening! This is by far the BEST Indian in Essex we are so lucky it’s in South Woodham . We can’t wait to come back as soon as lockdown has lifted. Please support this top class restaurant!

So staff were pretty grumpy, none of them look happyyou were there. The worst part about all of it, is that they were in such a rush. The waiter came up to us twice trying to take away the popadoms that we wanted to keep throughout the meal to have with out curries. As it’s the 10pm rule, everything shuts at 10. This means the last person to leave can be/should be 09.59pm. At 9.45pm the man came over saying you need to pay and go, literally took all of our parents considering I could eat more, there was still food left to it. We was near enough pushed out of the restaurant and they made us seem like we were holding them up, therefore next time if you want to push us out at 9.45 put your closing time at 9.45. Because of this, I’d go to the other Indian closer and maybe you won’t get pushed out, with happy employees :)

Really lovely to be back at chillies, food is outstanding, service is first class, every mouthful is a delicious experience, great menu with lots of diffrent dishes, to what we have in grays, if only we lived nearer, we would be there more often,,Highly recommend

The presentation and taste of the food was absolutely amazing and the hospitality was great. The restaurant was very well kept and hygenic etc, once again the staff members service was of a very high standard- very kind and helpful people. Highly recommended!!

We are missing not being able to eat in our favourite local restaurant each week, but have ordered take aways which taste just as good as dining in! The food quality is on point and not compromised. Please support this great restaurant at this difficult time, you won’t be disappointed! As soon as this lock down is over we will be back straight away, to enjoy not only the superb food, but the great atmosphere and ambience this restaurant has to offer!

Hubby and I have been regulars at this restaurant for a number of years and cannot praise It enough. Friends and family are also visitors and love it as much as we do. The takeaway food is as good as the food when eating in in our view so please support this restaurant as we will be during this difficult time. We wish the amazing staff at this restaurant all the best and look forward to visiting them for a meal once we are able.

Chillies is in a league of their own! Nothing compares! From the moment you arrive you are treated like royalty. Kam and his staff are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The food is the best we’ve eaten, on a different level! The flavours you can’t find any where else !Our favourite dishes are the chicken naga and anything from the tandoori oven. I am very fussy but this restaurant delivers every time. Thank you chillies for amazing flavours & impeccable service. Totally recommend Chillies - this is South Woodham”s little gem !

Best Indian in SWF and Chelmsford areaVisited Chilli’s late on a Saturday evening, past 10:00 pm showed to our table immediately and ordered our drinks. The menu here is excellent very varied with unusual choice, the Bombay Dream is superb. You get first class service here with very attentive and friendly staff, Kam the manager is very professional and helpful, have got found a better Indian restaurant in the area. Will definitely be returning

We were going to visit my daughter and she suggested going to chillies for dinner, we were all up for it, a table of 5, and we weren't disappointed, everything was so tasty, tandoori chicken was cooked to perfection, so was the curries, veg and naan bread, it was busy, but the staff still had time to pour the procesco, service was first class, and they made as feel very welcome, looking forward to my next visit already

Fancied a change during the Christmas period so ordered a meal from Chillies. Menu you is pretty substantial with something for everyone on it. Order was phoned in with a requested delivery time. Arrived about 5-10 minutes later but no issue with that. Food was really fresh and piping hot. Nice to see the meal came with a couple of poppadoms, Sauce and a beer at no charge. All dishes were really tasty. The only issue with the meal was the dish of sag paneer which had burnt bits in. If we had been dining in then I would of sent it back. I also ordered a cheese and keema naan bread. As a takeaway this is probably a mistake as by the time you get the order the cheese has started to set again. Probably one that is best to order when dining in. Overall a good takeaway which we will use again in the future.

Best Indian restaurant in the area. Service is always excellent, Kam is really helpful and professional. The menu choice is huge with dishes I’ve not seen in any other restaurants of this kind. It’s the only Indian restaurant we use and will continue to visit on a regular basis

Lovely meal here on a thursday. Food was delicious as always lots of choice, poppodums for starters and I had the lamb passanda with extras. Wine was reasonably priced. We were offered a free drink and the price was good

Visited with my husband, daughter and son in law, looking forward to a lovely evening, and we weren't disappointed, we were shown to a lovely table, and given menus to peruse, we ordered our food and drinks, waiters were very attentive, pouring our wine for us, and the food was hot and delicious, everything was perfection, we had such great service, and we enjoyed every minute, can't wait to return, we did notice that when people were finished with their chutneys, the remainder was thrown away, dish washed up and refilled, ready for the next table, which I think is fantastic, as I know most restaurants, just refill and send out again, will definetly recommend chillies and will return in the near future, if we lived in south woodham ferrers we would be at this restaurant at least twice a week, as it was scrumptious

Love Chilli’s, the menu selection is the best I’ve come across with lots of different Asian meals to try, the Bombay Dreams dish is amazing. The service is always excellent with really nice staff happy to have a chat and joke with you. Definitely the best Indian restaurant in the area, will be visiting regularly

We had been here a couple of times and had an enjoyable evening but have to say on this occasion it was very disappointing. All the staff had changed and were non attentive, had to ask where our food was and when it came it was luke warm. We were not asked whether we wanted more drinks, a dessert or any coffee. We gave up and asked for the bill and went somewhere else. Will not be going back in the near future. This was booked under the name of Linda as it was her birthday and this evening was spoilt.

Went with my family on a Saturday night, and throughly enjoyed it, as usual, such delicious food, impeccable service, waiters are friendly and helpful, can't do enough for you, so everyone has a fantastic evening, can't wait to return

Went on easter sunday, with my family, there were 6 of us, and we're seated at a lovely table, and we're greeted warmly, it was a hot day, but with the air conditioning, the temperature was perfect, we have been there a few times, and every time the food is cooked perfectly, nothing is too much trouble, and the waiter service was impeccable, will definetly return, and highly recommend

Eaten here too many time & have never had a bad experience. Always enjoy our food & the staff are really accommodating.

Lovely meal,friendly efficient service and reasonable prices we would definitely go back to this restaurant and recommend it to our friends 😁

Went with my daughter, husband and family, and wasn't disappointed, restaurant was buzzing,, poppadoms were fresh and crispy, service was impeccable, the rest of the food was tasty, hot and delicious, everything was perfect, had a really lovely evening

We had Christmas Day in the restaurant, the food was the best Indian we have ever had, staff went the extre mile, even supplied delicious cream cake and coffee. thoroughly great experience, cant wait to return. ✔

Been out Indian of choice for many years.

Have been so many times and never left a review which is so bad of me because they seriously serve the greatest food and are so friendly. The décor is gorgeous & clean and we will continue having out nights out here. Our friends travel from Kent to eat here. Thanks for another lovely evening last night Sat 10th Nov and my cake was amazing x

Came here for a take away on recommendation. Very friendly and a very nice atmosphere. The decor is lovely. had a superb meal for a reasonable price. I will return to eat here in the very near future.

We went here in the week and having just walked in with no booking they seated us straight away.

I’ve been going to this restaurant since it first opened and I always have the same dish; chicken noor ke naga! It’s quite spicy but incredibly flavoursome and not just spicy for the sake of being spicy! Each mouthful is pure bliss! The staff are lovely and welcome you like old friends in spite of the length between visits! I would always wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant!

Haven’t been to Chilli’s for over a year but will definitely be returning soon. Service was excellent and the choices on the menu were superb, couldn’t decide what to have but went for the Bengal grill which was amazing, beef, chicken and lamb all tasting lovely. All four of us truly loved the food and evening.

Lovely meal and fab service as always. Thanks Chillies 😊 Our favourite Indian in South Woodham Ferrers, wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Went with my husband, daughter and son in law, booked a table, and it was very busy, really hot day, but it was nice and cool in there, due to the air con, we ordered drinks and food, and was not disappointed, everything was amazing and delicious, we had an array of dishes, and the garlic naan bread was the best i've tasted, highly recommend

4 of us arrived on a sat night, was seated in a already busy restaurant and had a very enjoyable meal, waiters attentive, food delicious everything was perfect, we all had a fantastic evening would definitely recommend

We went as a family for a meal and we were not disappointed. Polite, attentive staff, delicious freshly cooked food what more could you ask for. This is def a winner!

The decor is excellent, looks very new with granite like composite topped tables and modern decor. But and it is a big but, the food does not live up to the surroundings and it is certainly not fusion. For it to be fusion it has to be a fusion of differing cuisines, this it certainly is not. The food is adequate as a normal average take away, but it is not outstanding. The staff are friendly but the food does not match the service.

Visited on a Friday night with my partner. First visit and was impressed with the decor on arrival. We hadn't booked but as it was around 7pm we were able to get a table.

We have just revisited Chillies Indian restaurant & thoroughly enjoyed our evening, the staff there are vey friendly, they have a very comprehensive menu, which should cater for all tastes & their restaurant is very well laid out. The food is beautifully cooked & very well presented & all can be purchased at a very reasonable price, well worth a visit.

Excellent fresh food , friendly staff and a great atmosphere. We visit here regular and can highly recommend.

We had our works Christmas meal here. It was the first time ever I ate at Chillies. The food was amazing and the staff were fantastic. Even got a complimentary drink at the end

So much choice on the menu including Tofu and Quorn alternatives. Visited with friends, one of which was vegetarian. Very tasty dishes and excellent service.

Thanks again to Kam and the team at Chillis for another lovely evening. Staff are always so welcoming and the food is just gorgeous! Chicken Tikka Kashmiri is my absolute favourite - Has recently had a makeover too with comfy new chairs and updated decor. Best Indian restaurant in Woodham and they deliver as far out as fambridge if you don't have the energy to go out!!!! Xxx

Centrally located in South Woodham Ferrers on a first floor location. Adjacent to the Oakland Hotel. Excellent Food at reasonable prices. I live in Ireland so I delight in eating Indian food on my rare visits to the UK. This did not disappoint and I and my friends I had come to visit had three courses. Good service in a modern setting. No issues as selection offered covered all tastes. Very enjoyable and reasonably priced.

My absolute favourite Indian in all of woodham, probably all of Chelmsford! The food is amazing the service is always...

Buena comida, buen servicio, personal excelente. Solía venir aquí cuando vivíamos en el REINO UNIDO y nunca nos decepcionó. Ahora vivimos en Francia, aprovechamos la oportunidad para tomar algunas comidas en casa con nosotros. No puedo quejarme de este restaurante.

Yo soy un habitual en este restaurante ahora y nunca me decepciona. La comida es siempre excepcional. El menú es variado. El personal es muy amable y acogedor. No te decepcionará.

La comida es muy buena. Muy buen servicio, aunque bastante concurrida mucho personal. Uno de los menús más extensos que he visto. Muy cómodas, si ruidoso restaurante. Los clientes ruidosa de charlando; la zona no contiene muchos textiles es muy ruidoso, el único inconveniente. El restaurante está en la planta 1 calle por lo tanto no es adecuado para aquellos que tienen dificultades para subir escaleras. Excelente relación calidad-precio. Dos de nosotros tuvimos comida principal, refrescos por £33. Nos dieron café gratis. Recomendaría este restaurante.

Un excelente y atento servicio fuimos a chilis con viejos amigos y recibido, y la comida era realmente precioso. El personal estaba dispuesto a dejar que hablemos mucho después que había acabado de comer, y nos dio toda una bebida gratis después del café.

Our first time, and will definitely revisit, we where a large group of friends with kids and we ate all in the some time, food was great and excellent taste Normally I get heartburn after a curry but this was fine and no problems at all I will highly recommend, Very good services Well done guys

Ate here for the first time in March. My thoughts:Mint sauce is bright coloured green and onions are bright red (never a good sign) Sag Paneer - solid cooked cheese, dry and not very tasty. Chicken tikka - dry, and I know taste reheated chicken when I taste it!!!! Friendly staff. Food quality is very poor though. If you want a good Indian, drive to Zara in Mayland and pick one up, by far much better. I'm now done with food in South Woodham Ferrers.

We have sat in here before and had very nice meals. Including my birthday last year with about 10 people. Tried a takeaway from her for the first time last week as hubby getting bored with our usual takeaway option of Pink Garlic. First off LOADS of free poppadoms for jsut two of us. Bright pea green yoghurt sauce and coloured onions. We almost got too full on these before we got to the mains! He had Jinga Temptation King prawns in shells with a medium sauce which I also tried. Nice. My Chicken Cheesena Sag looked nice but had no spice to it at all! Also written up as a medium strength curry I detected none of an equivalent spice to my husbands dish - did they forget? The marinated checked was a little tough and chewy - not what I'm used too in local chicken curries I usually get. Nice bhindi bhajee and Dall Pallok (lentils) but obviously need to find a better chicken dish for me.....I like Spinach dishes and may try the standard Sag chicken next time! And it's cheaper! Hey ho...hopefully a 1 off blip!

Always a good meal in here, friendly staff and a nice modern interior. Has an extensive menu, but if there is something that you want that isnt listed, they can usually prepare it for you.Would recommend!

Fabulous, freshly cooked, food. A delicious menu. Gracious and friendly staff who cannot do enough for you. Be it take away or eat in, you cannot beat their food. I have been with friends, with other half, as a party, all sorts of occasions and each time have never been disappointed. I have equally had take away for various groups and not once has anyone ever been disappointed.

This Indian restaurant can provide you with some first class Indian cuisine, they have a very comprehensive menu which caters for all tastes. The staff there make you right at home & will look after you throughout your stay in the restaurant. If you wish they can provide you with a takeaway service & delivery to your door if you so desire.Great place for a family occasion, all their food is very reasonably priced, this restaurant is well worth a visit.

Went there on a saturday night, turning up around 8.o clock, without booking, as we had booked in another restuarant in south woodham ferrers, and they were too busy, and hadn't saved our table, but we were quickly ushered to a table, even though they were really busy, we were a table of 4 and managed to get the last table, food and drink was lovely, plenty of choices on the menu, all the curries we chose were lovely, side dishes, we're hot and tasty, service was impeccable, couldn't fault nothing, except a very noisy table of 4 sat beside us, we had to shout to each other, to be heard above the noise, such a shame that there are people , not thinking of everyone else, shame they were seated, next to us but we still enjoyed our evening and would definitely return

The staff are friendly and efficient. The food is always great, with a good selection to choose from. I like the fusion dishes, if you can't make your mind up on what to have this is a great option with smaller portions of two dishes, so you get two dishes for the price of one. A lovely environment and will definitely visit again.

We came on a Sunday evening a party of six, the staff were very attentive andfood was fantastic. Highly rated and will visit again very soon.

Went to Chillies for birthday celebrations with my girlfriends. Food was fantastic and as each of us had different tastes, the staff were very good at recommending some of their speciality dishes. Great tastes, especially the wonderful vegetable korma with mango which was just gorgeous. Definately THE restaurant to go to for super food and a lovely friendly atmosphere.

This place was recommended to me by a friend so I decided to treat my family to a meal out and I must say I'm glad I didGood quality food at reasonable prices nicely decorated interior and have a nice Christmas theme etc, the staff are very friendly and equally helpful, also has a great atmosphere and you get greeted as soon as you walk in.Would definitely dine here again and will most certainly pass on my recommendations to anyone that asks. Andy swf

Only went here because the Thai restaurant was fully booked and now wished we had gone home. We both went for speciality dishes 46 & 47 which where supposed to be of medium strength but had no heat what so ever and to be honest were bland & tasteless They seem to of crammed as many tables as they could in this place which is probably why its so noisy in there Funniest bit was when the waiter came up to us at the end and said You wont want coffee or anything else will you... my wife just laughed & said no its ok wont be going back

Located upstairs In the middle of South Woodham near to the Oakland Hotel, the Town Crier pub, fish and chip shop and a number of Indian and Chinese takeaways and restaurants.The restaurant has an extensive menu and the food is of a very high standard and well presented. Prices are reasonable and service is very good.The decor is very bright and modern. For me, it is a bit too bright and, because of the modern style with hard floors and surfaces and no curtains (or table cloths), the restaurant can be very noisy when busy or if there is a slightly rowdy group in. The sound tends to bounce around and it can be hard to hear your table mates.

(Cameo) - Chillies - South Woodham Ferrers In the past I've reviewed various Indian restaurants explored by my friend John and me. We have an excuse to try Indian restaurants while our wives do a 'ladies wot dine' group every month or so. And while my wife, sadly, no longer dines with the group, I'm always up for a curry. This time we thought we'd try 'Chillies' which is one of several Indian restaurants that serve South Woodham Ferrers, in 'Oakland House' upstairs above a bathroom showroom, and round the corner from the Nawab - which I've reviewed in the past. Previously the space was occupied by Town Council offices. As I mentioned, it's upstairs, which is inconvenient for less able bodied diners. Inside it's glitzy, vast mirrors suggest more space than is present, and the tables are a red sparkly 'stone' material, as you often see high end kitchen worktops. It works, in a glitzy sort of way, and doubtless saves on the cost of laundering tablecloths. We were among the first to dine, on a chilly Thursday evening, and were shown to our table. The menu is interesting, promising 'Indian Fusion'; time was the menu featured Ostrich and Kangaroo, but these days the Fusion represents half and half dishes - although they still show Crocodile (subject to availability). So it could be a case of "I'll have a Crocodile Madras and… well you know the rest".We were less ambitious, my friend John ordered a Vegetable Samosa to start while I enjoyed the Tandoori Lamb Chops as a starter. For mains we'd both decided on Chicken Tikka Biryani, but the waiter offered us a special 'Chicken Tandoori Biryani", he then asked if we liked chick peas and green chilli, we did indeed and they appeared in the delivered dish. Something that didn't seem quite right about our main courses was the presentation, normally Chillies dishes are accompanied by swirls of sauce - usually spelling the word 'Chillies'. You'll have seen the arty swirls on TV chef programmes, and you can just make out Chillies on my starter plate. Well our main courses were not only missing the arty swirls, but they both looked as though they've been emptied from a takeaway carton. Maybe the chef had prepared them for a takeaway order by mistake. No matter, the food itself was delicious, the green chilli gave a tasty heat, but was sliced finely enough that it didn't attack, but gave a warming glow. And the portions were huge! We weren't quite able to finish the mains, or the delicious Peshwari Naan we'd ordered, and John was disappointed to have to skip dessert, he has a sweet tooth. The total, including a few beers between us, was a tad over twenty quid a head, and the restaurant was filling up as we left. We have one more South Woodham Ferrers 'Indian' to try, but we will definitely be returning to Chillies.

Starter was ok, chicken dry on dupiaza. Daughter loved her ticks masala. Not a bad meal and ok value for money. Child portion/price helped with this. Service exceptional and good beer.

Located just off the town centre Chillies is an excellent Indian restaurant with a fusion twist. The menu is quite expansive and includes a few variants such a Malaysian. The staff are very cheerful and attentive. The drink list is good and they also sell non-alcholic beer. If I had one small critism it would be that the the food ratings of heat was incorrect, I found them to be under the described heat, I like a bit more punch, but I am sure if I had asked they would have adjusted this to my taste. Price wise, also under what I would expect to pay for a meal of good quality and freshness. Would I recommend,yes. Would I return,yes.

I love this place, the food, staff, atmosphere and whole experience is everything i need from eating out. in fact I am going there tonight. the quality of food is very high only matched by its service.

Meal out with my wife's aunt and uncle. We normally visit at theirs but decided to eat out for a change. They normally get their take away from here so tried the restaurant.Really well laid out inside, Its on the first floor so if you get a window seat - as we did - you have a good view. Its only Asda's car park but I like a window seat. Service was excellent and though they got packed they never hurried us along.Menu was massive and had loads that i could choose from. Forgot what I had to start with but well nice. Wife thought mine was better. We both liked our mains. She had the Malibu curry and I the Henna. Could not fault. Had a cheeky coconut dessert while the others had shorts (I was designated driver). Was certainly one of the better Curry Houses and could not fault on service, set up and food. Will definitely come back again. Including tip, per couple, was £60 which we felt, considering how stuffed we was, was well worth it.

Having decided to try something different, I went for one of the signature dishes, the Muj Special, described as "Strips of marinated chicken tikka cooked in aromatic spices to produce exhilarating flavours that will leave you wanting more. Medium strength. Absolutely delicious."Maybe it was an off night, but the strips of chicken were over-cooked and stringy. This could be overlooked if the taste were there, but sadly, this seemed to be some kind of fairly thick, maybe lentil/onion based sauce with very little flavour. To the point that mopping up leftover sauce with the (admittedly very nice) garlic naan, would've spoiled the naan.One of my friends had the salmon tikka, which he said was very nice, so it could be that I made a bad choice.On the plus side, the service was great and the Cobra was cold.

Excellent meal out for the four of us on a Friday night. We were welcomed very warmly & the quality of service remained high throughout the evening. The menu is extensive & includes some unusual dishes. As well as the expected chicken & lamb etc, they have fish options & even crocodile! I very much enjoyed my tandoori duck (a very generous portion) and my dining colleagues each chose something different & all were very pleased with their meals. They are also more than willing to accommodate food allergies or just different tastes & will change an option to suit. Loved it there. We have been before & will definitely go back again and again.

After ordering again from this stupendous Indian restaurant I can honestly say that is by far the best around and with its affordable pricing it's somewhere I will continue to use everytime I order Indian... With all the dishes I have had so far and I try different all the time, I can say that the dishes r fresh and always full of meat unlike some other takeaways in the area !! Fantastic food again thank you Chillis for never letting us down ;)

The food is amazing here always perfect, the staff are all very polite and helpful. This is the best place in town to take the family for dinner.

Visited on a Saturday evening. Did not wait long for the food and the menu had everything I wanted. I love Salmon Tikka and this was on the menu except it had a mushroom sauce, but I am not complaining as it was lovely. Can also recommend the Lamb Tikka. We took someone with us who is a Coeliac, but she had no problem here they explained everything she could have.

As usual Kam's boys looked after us on a late one, great food friendly service This is great place for take away, dining in before or after beers or as a big group the guys are really accommodating friendly servide

Without a doubt the best Indian Restaurant I have ever eaten at. Fantastic quality food and exceptionally friendly staff.

The standard in Woodham isnt high but Chillies is by far the best. Real good choice on the menu and all the dishes are really tasty. A personal favourite is the Tarka Tan

Myself and partner was very impressed with the food I would highly recommend the Lamb Shashlik and it's by far the best I've ever had, and the service was very pleasant it seemed as if all the staff could not do more for you thank you very much to all the staff at chillies for making an evening meal special !!

Given all the reviews on this place, we must have been unlucky. We arrived quite early hoping to be served quickly as we had another engagement later that evening. BUT, even though there appeared to be an army of waiters, the service was slow but there was a continued procession of takeaways leaving the kitchen.Once our food did arrive it was ok, but had to keep asking for the things they had forgotten. Naan bread, extra mint sauce etc.In a very competitive market within Woodham, it did not appear to be any better or worse than the others.

Went with friends. Meal was excellent as usual. Staff are always polite and attentive without being intrusive. New dishes complement the menu as my wifes new favorite is the Tarka Tan.

A good restaurant with a well set out menu. Food was very good quality & lots of it! Service was quick & polite. Would definitely go again!

My partner and I have eaten in this restaurant and used it for take away food on a number of occasions.Our most recent visit was last Thursday night.I cannot fault Chillies. The service is always polite and professional.The food is excellent and good value for money.There is a very wide and varied menu.Plenty of tables and if you live outside the area, plenty of parking close by.If I was going to criticise, I could only do so based on personal taste, we have never found the food to be quite spicy enough. However, I know many people ( including a couple who visited this restaurant with us recently), who would say that it is absolutely perfect.Perhaps I have killed my taste buds over the years!I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone.

great varied menu, they always accommodate any menu changes you may want and give fab friendly and efficient service in the restaurant and for their take away/delivery service. They open early 5.30pm so is great for taking the kids before the rush starts.
