Chilli's Indian Restaurant in Derry

7 years ago I reviewed the restaurant "Good curry, shame about the decor". Tonight we had a family takeout. My wife ordered the mixed vegetable curry, which turned out to be frozen diced veg with a house curry sauce mixed in. I have looked to find this type of frozen veg on the websites of all the local supermarkets but no, none had anything this bad. You know the sort of thing you used to be able to get - basically a mix of mostly peas and carrots with the diced veg all exactly the same size. Apparently no longer available in supermarkets so presumably bought by the restaurant in bulk from some supplier. Shame about the curry, shame about the decor.

We have eaten in Chilli`s often and safe to say the quality of food is outstanding. I think the location does`nt do it any favours. A bit far from city centre. But worth the extra little bit of travel. Try it you won`t be dissappointed.

Love this indian take away.fantastic food.Have ordered 3 times and have never been disappointed.Have waited way too long for good indian fare as I'm originally from London and have spent a couple of amazing years in India.Did not eat in restaurant so can't comment.

Por lo general, cenamos en Mama Masalas, pero vine aquí para cambiar de escenario. Qué error. La comida tardó una eternidad, las bebidas eran ridículamente pobres. Podría haber mejorado yo mismo en casa. Creo que eso lo dice todo. Evitar evitar Especialmente sus precios inflados al pagar en euros. El restaurante estaba vacío. ¡Pregúntate por qué! ! Patético

Gooooood food, great price, fantastic service. Can't fault it, and tha's not like me. Had the butter chicken, really good. Great value for money. Will defs be using again.

This restaurant looks a bit grotty from the outside but don't be put off by that. The food is excellent, portions substantial and their butter chicken melts in the mouth. Complimentary poppadoms came with a delicately spiced onion accompaniment which I could've eaten all night and the mint yoghurt tasted of yoghurt. Staff are really friendly too. The restaurant itself was quiet for a Friday night but takeaways were flying out the door. Great place for a relaxing meal after a really long week.

We went here for an early evening meal and really enjoyed it.A pity that there were no Early Bird offers available in the menu but the food was absolutely excellent.My wife and I both had the Lamb Pasanda and pilau rice with sides of Saag Paneer and Peshwari Naan.The quality of the food was fantastic, portion size was really good and the bill was pretty reasonable at £33.Service was very friendly too. We’ll be back!

One of our regular haunts. Excellent as usual. Will always return. Waiting staff very friendly. I had Garlic Tikka, Mrs had Passanda, Pilau rice and Peschwari naan. Simply can't be beaten for authentic Indian food. Washed down with a large cold bottle of Cobra.

Solo voy a dos restaurantes en Derry, ¡y este es uno de ellos! Este lugar es como una joya escondida y es increíblemente sabroso. El mejor restaurante indio en Derry y el servicio y el ambiente es genial! Cuando yo y mi pareja venimos ahora, nos dan la misma mesa e incluso nos preguntan si necesitamos menús (generalmente no, ya que sabemos lo que recibimos cada vez). He venido aquí para hacer las cosas del personal con un grupo alboroto solo para mí y mi pareja, y siempre son muy profesionales y disfrutan de la diversión con sus clientes. Recomiendo este restaurante a cualquiera! Estoy aquí al menos dos veces al mes, si puedo más! !

Este es el peor restaurante que he estado. ¡Normalmente no escribo reseñas pero siento la necesidad de advertir a la gente de este lugar terrible! ! yo Pedimos una comida para llevar y me dijeron que 20 minutos. Fui allí, dos familias en el restaurante y estaba prácticamente vacío. Esperó 1 hora para recoger comida para llevar con los niños en el coche con hambre! !¡Me habría cocinado en este tiempo! ! Sucedió la segunda vez ahora - ¡Nunca volveré a este lugar! ¡Ordena si tienes todo el tiempo del mundo y no tienes hambre! !La comida es basura,

I've tried many indian takeaways living away in north east england for 17 years and one other popular indian takeaway in Derry. I've found most to be very good or delicious.I tried Chillis last night and was sorely disappointed. The Onion Bhaji were patty/burger shapped and appeared to be bought in frozen or pre cooked and frozen. They didnt taste fresh, they had no crunch or caramelization on the outside and were bland and mushy on the inside. They were served with a dipping sauce that was just the standard cheap watery chilli suace available in any discount store. Rubbish. The Cicken Bhuna was rubbery with a watery bland sauce that had heat but very little flavour and tasted more like a cheap chinese curry sauce. Veg Pilaw again bland, watery taste with few vegetables. Sag Aloo didnt taste fresh either but was better than the Bhuna. The Nann Bread was good. I only ordered from here based on the decent reviews i viewed on tripadvisor. I can only imagine most of them are fake. I feel aggreived at paying £24 for 2 mains, rice a starter and a nann and it being such poor poor quality. I wouldnt eat here again.

We've been here a lot over the last two years and every single time the food is delicious and the staff are always welcoming. (We've also made orders for delivery and they've been just as good as expected)

I mostly visit chilli's restaurant. I like the food in this restaurant very much it is very tasty. It is the best restaurant

We went there to eat on a Wednesday evening, we ordered samosas, tandoori mix and jafrani chicken. Every dish was great, well cooked and seasonned. Staff was helpful and friendly. And this restaurant is not expensive at all. A must see in Derry

Really nice food and very friendly staff as per normal . Always call in here when I'm in derry city and am never disappointed. Highly recommend the chicken tikka madras .

Pretty empty on a Friday evening and oddly for an Indian restaurant no smell of Indian food.

Absolutely beautiful. Food is the nicest you will get anywhere. Love this place. Friendly staff and the food is consistently fabulous

I almost didn't go to Chilli's as I'd read a couple of poor reviews but I'm so so glad my husband and I did. Having relocated back to the area just a year ago from England I've been missing my favourite Indian restaurant. I'd tried a few different places in the City and Letterkenny but wasn't impressed. The food however in Chilli's was full of flavour and the staff were very friendly. I'm definitely going to make this a regular place to eat.

We tried this restaurant for diner and Parking was very difficult to find in the lanes nearby.

Pedido 4 kebabs, arroz, pan de ajo, patatas fritas y llamó unos minutos antes de la hora de mano de orden estaba lista, sólo me dijeron que había sido colocada sin fin! . Después de un poco de búsqueda se dieron cuenta de mi pedido había sido hecha bajo un nombre similar y estaba listo para la recolección.

Just back from this absolutely beautiful restaurant with my fiance, food was top class and service was excellent, of all the Indian restaurants I have ever eaten in I have to say this is the best by far.

Vamos a este restaurante regularmente. No hay mucho que ver y está decorado en un estilo tradicional. Sin embargo, la calidad de la cocina india es muy bueno. Nunca hemos empezar porque no es su fuerza, sus platos principales son muy buenos platos de curry y tanto su tandoori. El personal es amable y eficiente, se compara favorablemente con restaurantes indios en otras partes del Reino Unido. Probar si vas a esta preciosa ciudad

Sick as a wee hospital after eating out of this place, never again, doesn't even deserve a 1. Got a take away late Thursday night & was up again at 4 in the morning being sick, knew it wasn't right when eating it.

Pedimos una comida para llevar, pollo biryani y me decepcionó. El arroz era viejo (se rompe en la boca y no como arroz basmati recién preparado) y el pollo era difícil

Llamé Restaurante chilis para pedir comida para llevar en su menú. En su página web da una oferta de libras! 15 para dos, que incluye un entrante, dos principales y dos lados, curries dos pops vertederos y un chapuzón. Lo suficientemente recto, así que elegí mis opciones del menú y procedió a pedir por teléfono para la entrega.

We eat in this restaurant regularly. And also do takeaways.Not only best Indian in Derry but best in the area. I've been eating Indian food for over 40 years and can easily say this is one of the best for tasty food and value for money. Excellent for vegetarians who want to eat out. Great menu list.Popodoms and starters while you wait.Can also bringl your own wine.

Excelente comida, excelente servicio y buena relación calidad-precio! Me encanta este lugar y volver a sentarse y para llevar tanto en muchas ocasiones! Organizar eventos familiares siempre aquí como a todo el mundo le encanta. La comida es excelente. y es muy difícil encontrar un indio que es auténtico. . Y es esto!. Si su salida y sobre su vale la pena!

We are regulars at Chili's and would highly recommend it. Food is always good.Most restaurants I have visited regularly, have good days and bad, Chili's is always very bloody good. If it aint on the menu, just ask, and it will usually be cooked for you.its a bit bright and funky looking, but there food makes it worthwhile.

Couldn't fault a thing ! We had we had three starters /four main meals/ sides and drinks and the bill came to £80 and was worth every penny . We would highly recommend this restaurant .We ate here on a Saturday eve and although the place was busy it didn't interfere with the excellent service or the standard of the food .

Not really authentic Indian fare in my opinion but average for taste. Lots of young friendly staff if that counts three times we were asked if everything was okay. Wouldn't go back

Last night, I had the misfortune to stumble upon Chili’s, expecting an authentic Indian dining experience. What followed was not only some of the most drab, bland excuse for Indian food I’ve had in 25+ years but, hands down, the most appalling customer service ever courtesy of a lady who I can only presume was the person in charge. These are strong words but from 8 years working FOH and BOH in good restaurants myself, try as I might, I cannot recall a worse treatment.It’s not always a good sign when at 730pm, there are only a handful of other tables present. Despite the internal warning, I went ahead anyway. Bad mistake. No-one showed us to a table, we were told to just pick one ourselves. The place inside had a depressing feel to it. There was a lack of style, ambience – everything looked tired and dated. No-one’s tried to give the impression of a tandoori restaurant. The menus we were handed were on their last legs; tatty, knackered and dog-eared, fit only for the bin. I opted for a king prawn butterfly, my diner for garlic mushrooms as starters. When then came, I was convinced that I’d handed the wrong thing but no, they were correct. What I got were some king prawns, not butterflied, dipped in some strange cake-like batter and deep fried. In any other tandoori restaurant I’ve been to, and I’ve been to some of the best curry houses in the UK; Amaya in London, Mem Saab in Nottingham to mention a few, king prawn butterfly are whole king prawns in tandoori marinade, butterflied and cooked in a tandoor oven. These were battered, deep fried and not even butterflied. About as far away from the fresh, juicy, vibrant-tasting prawns they should have been.Next came my tandoori mix, rice and Peshwari naan. The tandoori marinade had no kick to it. Like the starter, it was bland. The meats were cooked to within an inch of their lives; dry, chewy, no moisture left. The lamb tikka was unrecognisable – it had more the consistency of pork. The sauce provided was another bland, insipid dish of food. I noted that it was made with that cheap frozen vegetable-mix you often see stacked up in hospital-canteen serving trays – that depressing looking mix of cubed carrot, peas and fragments of broccoli and cauliflower.I ate it because I was hungry and given how long it took to arrive, I didn’t fancy anything else. When I complained, I was met with the most arrogant, bolshie, defensive woman. I tried to explain to her how proper tandoori prawns are served. “Aye, well that’s how their done here” was the response. I explained that outside of this restaurant, I’d never seen prawns being prepared in such a way. She simply repeated her original response. Sensing that I was on to a losing battle here, I persisted anyway. I told her how lacking in spice the marinade was, how bland the accompanying sauce was. “Well, you never said anything and there’s nathin’ we can do now coz you’ve eaten it all”. I pointed out that finishing a dish is no indictor of its quality – more that I’m just hungry. “Well, you shoulda sez something tae somebody”. Here I explained that none of her staff did a check-back, a standard procedure in restaurants. “Well ye can see that we’re really busy”. At this point I became furious. So far I was dealing with someone who was flippant, rude and incompetent but now to start hoodwink me? I put it to her, that I as the customer, must surely be the problem for she had shirked responsibility for just about everything else. I pointed out that there was a total of 5 tables in the restaurant, all 2-seaters. “This is actually really busy for us” was the response. At this point my heart sunk. I knew right then I was dealing with people who wouldn’t know good service and proper tandoori food if you put them under their noses. I didn’t witness much hard work going on from my table and I’ve worked some breakneck services in restaurants. It looked pretty laid-back to me – 4 floor staff to six tables. There were no apologies, no discount, no offer of help, no attempt made to repair the situation – nothing. A masterclass in dreadful customer service. Basically, they’re far too focused on their takeaway service, which takes precedence over anyone in the restaurant.“Sorry yeez didn’t like it lads” came the terse response as we exited.I’m sorry too. Sorry that I ever inconvenienced you. Sorry that you reacted to constructive feedback with immediate defence. Sorry for the people of Derry who think this is representative of Indian food and service.Chili’s can be summarised like this: You can have a table if you must but our takeaway service is far more important than you, don’t complain because everything we make, we’ve been making it this way for years so don’t question it. If you don’t like something then it’s your problem and we won’t make any effort for recompense. Our manageress, who deals with complaints, has all the charm of a high-security prison guard. Enjoy your meal.

We ordered a take away, it was fresh and delicious. The rogan josh was beautiful, my family enjoyed their individual dishes as well. We will definitely be back again, Hands down the best Indian restaurant in Derry!!

I have been eating at this restaurant for years and can't stop coming back for more. I have to say it may not be the best looking restaurant in Derry but it is by far the best tasting Indian food you can buy in Derry. The staff are friendly and attentive and the service is excellent. I cant recommend the food highly enough it really is Indian food at its best.

Had a lovely evening meal here , excellent service, ordered the Veggie curry and really enjoyed it. Husband not vegetarian and plenty of options for both of us. highly recommend to all family and friends.

Purchased a takeaway. Great curry fresh tasting and not stodgy. Noticed interior decor improved. Will be in again soon.

Visited Chillis last night with 2 friend on a last minute get together. We decided to go as we hadn't anywhere booked & on passing this place decided to give it a go. It's not the nicest of restaurants let's be honest & the interior definitely needs updating but the food was fantastic. We ordered 3 mains with rice & then decided to order chips & nan also. Everything was lovely. It was a good half hour before we received our meals after ordering but this just proved that everything was made fresh, & u could tell. They also provided popodoms & dips whilst we waited.All in all a very enjoyable night with delicious food - I'll be back for sure.

Came here twice in one week at Christmas . Me and my boyfriend loved the food and atmosphere. Best Indian restaurant in Derry. And complimentary poppadoms! And they offered to pack our leftover food up for us. Best Indian restaurant in Derry!

Really good food and great knowledgeable staff . The chef will cook you any dish you want even if it's not on the menu .This place is also not overpriced .

The food here is top notch...everything has its own flavours and you can immediately tell it's cooked from fresh...i went as part of a group party and everyone loved their meals..The staff are very friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back ..prices are so reasonable too and the amount of food was substantial. Brilliant

Not convinced and certainly not motivated to come back. We went mid week and it was very quiet but the staff seemed to be keen for us to leave at 8pm. That aside the food seemed to be more akin so someone having a bash at Asian cuisine rather than actually having any relevance. I am not sure if any of the meats are marinated for example nor convinced the sauces are not from a jar.Looking at other ratings I wonder if the chef was ill the night I came and the local dinner-lady stood in!

I think someone wrote a song about this place "Please don't go"....there are better Indian Restaurants in DerryI have a very simple way of reviewing restaurants, could I have done it better at home ?The simple answer to this is yes . There were three in our group nobody's meal was that good . I had chicken Jalfrezi which consisted of chicken pieces in a jalfrezi sauce that I could have got in tesco's. Needless to say I wont be going back ....EVER.

This restaurant serves lovely food and we have always enjoyed take aways. As for the restaurant, well it lacks atmosphere and has a very very limited wine availability. Maybe if they tried some promotions and had a better selection of wines it could be really good for a dining experience.

To be honest we probably would have driven past it only for TripAdvisor reviews. It doesn't look exciting from the outside but it Def makes up for it when you get the food. Staff are very friendly and helpfully. The food was quick and amazing to taste. Slightly different options available compare to the normal Indian menus and Def worth a try. We will definitely be back. Couldn't fault the food it was just scumpious...you can even take what you don't finish home with you. Thank you for a lovely meal.

Meal with wife seated at window. Menu dirty and black dust on dato rail. Menu has no hot to mild guide which is handy in an Indian restaurant.Food was spot on and if the interior and atmosphere was OK I'd score it 5/5.It does take much to clean, put I bit of bloody Indian authenticity - such as pictures, music etc. Might as well be eating in a canteen.

Absolutely beautiful food. If you like good food and you tend to cook well at home usually (and you need a day off) and so you are decerning in food quality, then this is great. Hidden gem. Highly recommended

Love Chillies, has to be the best restaurant in Derry for Indian food. Hammond and his team are great and I wouldn't go anywhere else in Derry for hot food.

Chilli's is the best kept secret in Derry... It is autenthic with pleasant staff and really tasty food. My husband and I love a wee trip to Chilli's because it's relaxed, it has a great menu and the food is always fresh and full of flavour. We visited Chillis again on Sunday and I think I had the best meal ever...As a vegetarian I had so much choice and will be returning very soon. Another great meal, well done

This is a fantastic small family run business. The staff provide exceptional service and cater highly to your needs as nothing is too much trouble. They can recommend dishes to suite your taste buds and make the sauces mild, medium or hot depending on what you like. The food is always freshly prepared and the portions are large. The desserts are very simple such as ice cream but they do not have a great selection of desserts to choose from.

Chili's is a great place to visit for an authentic Indian meal. The restaurant itself is nothing special in terms of decor but it is a family run establishment and what it lacks in style it definitely makes up for in substance. It's great ordering a range of tasty dishes that can be shared by everyone so that you get to sample as many things as possible!! The dishes taste so fresh and have so much depth of flavour. This is a restaurant that many may miss in Derry but it is definitely my favourite and I would highly recommend it. Staff are very helpful and there is a good range of Asian beers to complete the experience

I had the Chicken Tikka and the Chicken Korma (with naan, rice and chapati) for delivery on two separate nights recently. I agree with a previous reviewer that the sauce was a bit watery, however the meal was delicious, and I would gladly order from them again.

We have dined in only once but have had several takeaways over the last couple of years. I'm always surprised it's so under used. The restaurant is rarely busy which frankly puts me off eating in as there's no real atmosphere, but if you were a large enough party you'd create your own. The food is fab and fresh; an order can take a bit of time but is well worth the wait. We've had food from Saffron too & whilst it's premises are modern & more appealing to dine in & the food is good too but just not as good as Chilli's (in my opinion).

This evening, I made the unfortunate decision to try our local restaurant 'Chilli's'.As with every restaurant I frequent, I checked the website - where I downloaded the only available 'Take away Menu'. I calculated the cost, and I then rang to order. I placed my order and asked for the total cost, which was, to my surprise, 20 percent higher than the total I had accumulated.I questioned this and was told- I was 'looking at the old menu' - I refuted that this was the only available menu, at which time I was rudely told that the prices had changed ( a 20% hike), and they had not updated there website. I asked to speak to the manager, and I was informed it was with him I was already speaking. I was asked 'did I want to order or what?' at which point the so called manager of this establishment hung up the phone.As the other local take-away's were closed at this point, my partner rang and placed our order. We paid the inflated price and collected our food. My partner and I are both lover's of Indian Cuisine, and it was with sincere dismay that we attempted to eat our meal. Despite the hefty cost, the Tikka Masala and the Korma we ordered were tasteless and water-based. The nan bread was dough, severely undercook and stone cold. The rice was also completely water-logged.Without doubt I can attest this was my worst food experience to date, notwithstanding the false advertisement on prices and the unceremoniously rude reception the 'Manager' provides for paying customers. I should imagine that in these difficult economic times, where restaurants are struggling to survive, one which treats its customers with such contempt should not wish to remain in trading much longer.

Yet again a great meal, friendly, good service. The best Indian restaurant in the area in my opinion. You need to try it.

Have eaten here loads of times over the years, last time was early December 2013. Was in on Thursday night, it was quiet, just ourselves and 2 other tables. 1 or 2 other Indian restaurants have opened in town so I imagine they have hit the trade of Chilli's but 1 of the other 2 also does Italian food while the other though Indian seems marketed towards the 'tobacco onion' crowd. Chilli's is the only true authentic Indian in Derry in my opinion. Restaurant is nice inside, tastefully decorated, good to see they have changed the chairs to something more stylish. Indian music playing over the sound system etc. Food excellent as usual, very fresh and tasty and good portions. You can ask for a 'doggie bag' if you don't finish it all. Their mixed platter for 2 to share as a starter is recommended. They have Cobra on draught which is a plus. On night we where in only 1 waiter on the floor and he did the till as well so I imagine it would be hairy if they got unexpectedly busy! On main road so parking can be tricky, park round the side in Frank Longs supermarket car park if you can or across the road in Sainsburys.

I've been here 3 times in just over a week... this has been the best Indian Restaurant I've been to ever. It is delicious and I've had nothing that I've thought of as just alright.. everything has been FANTASTIC. Will be back!!

Absolutely amazing!!! Can't rate highly enough, food wonderful, service great. Best Indian meals I've ever had!!!!!

Best Indian restaurant in derry....No indian restaurant can cook curry like chillies...awesome food,value for money,all services excellent...Butter ck awesome

We love this place. Staff are very friendly and the food is beautiful. We had the most beautiful Chicken purri as a starter on Sunday night - out of this world. Would highly recommend a trip here. On top of everything we got 20% off our bill.

Sadly, after many years of looking foward to my visits to this restaurant when I am back in Derry, it's unlikely I will go again.I have actually been back a few times but wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt as I noticed standards were slipping but was hoping it was a blip. The service has become torturously slow, as others say, they seem to be concentrating on the takeaway side. If that's the case they should just do away with the seating. The food is hit and miss, Veg samosa are still the best I have eaten but one of our party sent back his dahl as it was just watery and over salted. He never got a replacement and they had it added on the bill.. Once our order was taken the only time we saw staff was to have food brought over, we were never asked if we needed anything or if the food was ok. When we had finished I had to make a point of loudly piling up our plates in the hope someone would come over, they didn't so we had to go and stand by the till to wait for our bill. We probably stood 3 or 4 minutes, waiting. If we were less honest people we could easily have just walked out. I was actually considering just leavng the money on the till.it's a shame this place has gone so bad, it has a lot of potential business that it is just throwing away

We have been here quite a few times for an Indian meal, but the last two occasions were disappointing. The service is very slow - about a 40 minute wait - and then the meal too was disappointing....bland and lacking flavour. Re the wait, we were told that it was due to 'takeways' being made first [!!!!] and that the meals were made 'from scratch'. The meals themselves were not - as a previous reviewer has said - even as good as a M&S Indian meal.The restaurant also lacks atmosphere - totally empty at 7.00pm on a Friday evening - and the decor is dull and uninspiring. Also cold, with reliance on small fan heaters at floor level. A pity - was once very good. We will not be back..........................!

Best taste and best value for money... Do not hold back on amount of meat in each dish. A lot cheaper also than some if its competitors. Def recommend as a take away. Great food and great value for money

This has to be the best Indian in Derry - the most authentic. The staff are always friendly and attentitive. Had the Daal curry (lentil), very nice. Very child friendly.

The food here is really very good and we got 20% off the total bill (Sunday eve) The service was good but !!!!!!! When I go to an Indian Resturant I do not expect to be served by non Asian people . This is a good place to eat but could do better . This said we will go back and try it again .

It's really so sad that this place, which actually, until recently*, did the best curries in Derry, is so lacking in atmosphere and so badly indeed of updating. I think they must survive on the take out trade and THERE is the answer to the empty tables. Chilli's really needs to rethink the market it is aiming at, especially since the opening of the excellent but expensive Mama Massalas*. The location should be an advantage not a problem - all Chilli's needs to do is downgrade so as to fill the gap in the market catering for students and others looking for a cheap cafe style curry. Get rid of the flock wallpaper image (actually there is no flock wallpaper but you could swear that there is) cut the prices and get a cooler image. Every time my wife and I visit we spend the evening redesigning the place in our heads. Time to leave the 70s and come into the second decade of the new millenium, Chilli's. If you don't know how to do that, find out. Oh and yes, you'll not find better nan anywhere and as an ex-resident of the curry Mecca of Bradford, W.Yorks, I know what I am talking about.

This place is the best Indian restaurant in the North West and further. My wife and I were travelling around Italy for 3 weeks and we missed here so much (went in to the the #1 Indian in Rome and it wouldn't hold a candle to Chilli's) ... In the 1st week we were back we visited Chilli's 3 times lol. The food is amazing, staff are brilliant, the Manager Heament (sorry, not sure if my spelling is right) is the best... decor is a bit dated but who cares if the food is this good! Tips: Try the chicken tikka and ask for it extra spicy. Portions are big.. When you sit in and order the Biriani, it's enough to take the leftovers home for lunch the next day :-) Try their Nans... So nice.

Everything is relative! I used to dine in Chilli's and thought it was quite good. It became something of a regular spot for a while until I ordered a 'King Prawn' dish! What I got was quite pathetic. The smallest of prawns/shrimps, halved to make them look bigger! Needless to say they weren't fresh! I didn't bother complaining. I just never went back.The M&S range of Indian food is way better than anything I got here. How does that work?!

service is excellent really enjoyed are food the nan bread is to die for

Food looks and tastes nice i have i have tried tikka balti for the first time and it tastes soo good, and staff are really helpfull and friendly also

Food always tastes good in Chilli's but the restaurant itself looks a bit dated and run down, the location isnt great either. It kind of puts me off from going to this place. So I prefer the take aways from this place, good food, good price but dont have to sit in a dark, dated room

Great indian take away food. Great prices and very very tastey!

been here a few times. The veg samosa are beautiful. All the food is excellent and plentiful, we ended up leaving some we were so full. Service is quick and efficent. Highly recommended

Really good food its a small place a bit out of the way, blink and you will miss it, but well worth a visit you will not be disapointed

Have eaten from here on several occasions now (take out) & I have not had a single thing to complain about. I think I will sit on soon as they now have a 20% off offer on, Sun-Thur sit in. Couldn't be bad to that!

Loved teh food here. I travel quite extensively and have eaten in Indian Restaurants throughout the world and locally. I have found that teh food in this restaurant is excellent, with quiet, unobtrusive yet helpful staff. Well worth going for a meal with friends or family, or if just visiting on business!

We went on Friday lunchtime where they do a buffet from 12.30-2.30 for £6 the selection of dishes was good, the quality was amazing, and easily the best Indian I have tasted in the world!! No exaggeration the flavors and fresh produce were out of this world, looking forward to going back ;)

Myself and my Fiancée love this place. We've been going to Chilli's for years.. it's my favourite restaurant.. both sit in and take away. Consistently good.I travel quite allot with work - and the 1st thing I do when I hit my Hotel is see where the nearest/best Indian restaurant is (no doubt someone will read this as they sit in their Hotel room, itching for a good meal...as I've done many a time lol).Out of all those Indian's I've been to - this place is the best... I always compare the others to this and they never really get there.My favourite is the Chicken Tikka Starter.. I ask them to make it spicy (Indian Spice as they call it) and its top notch.For mains you can't go wrong with the Madras, Vindaloo (my staple).. or the Phal.The Nanns & Rice in here are excellent.. especially the Peshwari Nann or the Plain Nanns (I've heard the Keema's good).This place is brilliant and I'd definitely recommend it... value for money and the staff are excellent (especially Ea-mon)Also.. at the time of writing this (Feb12) they have 20% off your total bill Sun - Thurs for sit in... so that even better value.Recently they did a buffet for a friends birthday party... soo nice.. went down a treat. If I wasn't getting married abroad I'd be asking these guys to do the same for my reception lolCons: As others have mentioned its not 100% pleasing on the eye... needs upgrading - but times are hard, so as long as they don't slip on their quality I'll keep going there :-)

Great place, food consistently good, huge portions, always fresh and hot, lots of veggie options, I recommend the biryani but I've yet to be able to finish one!

consistently excellent food and service-reasonably priced. highly recommended.

For years I avoided Chilli's because it looks so bad from the outside , but after a recommendation from a friend eventually decided to give it a go. The outside badly needs a facelift , and they could probably use a new carpet, but the food is consistently excellent, generous portions, incredible naan bread and chutneys, and proper spicy curries, with ice cold cobra or kingfisher lager, Great value for money, Please give them a try, you won't regret it !
