Cinnamon Island in Dover

Although we waited 75 minutes for our stater we can not fault the food, fantastic fresh tasty huge portions . Staff very good .

Late giving this place a review as visited during a stay in Dover back at the end of April but had to do it as we really recommend it. Food was really tasty, staff really nice. Had the Magic Mushroom starter which was amazing and so tasty and it had one of the best pickle trays we have ever had and we have eaten at a lot of curry restaurants over the years. Would definitely be back if we are back in Dover,

Excellent plenty of it and very.tasty

This time,the only time , the chicken was questionable ! Seemed lacking in quality 🥹

Excellent food, hot & tasty. First class.

They left my food outside the door, not okay

order was late and not the best quality. instructions had not been followed

Regular customer. Order most weekends. Never had fo wait 2hours before. Was surprised that we were not offered anything complimentary for the delay. Not the best customer service for loyal customers.

Really delicious meal - hot and very tasty, thank you

We had chicken korma, onion bhajis , Sade Chawal (boiled rice) and a vegetable platter and it was all delicious! Generous portions, nice and hot, and the korma was the best we ever tasted, really sweet, thick creamy sauce and not oily - lovely.

I order sometime twice a week best place to eat best food I can't fault

I am very fussy but very real and this is the best curry I've had in a while. loved it thank you guys keep up that amazing standard cause I'm defo coming back 👏

Always love the food from here.

Ordered our food and the delivery time stated was 45 minutes to an hour. After waiting 25 minutes past the latest delivery time stated i called the restaurant. They told me they were busy, unlikely i thought as this was early on a thursday evening? And that our food was still in the kitchen and would be out soon. The food arrived another 30 minutes later which meant our delivery was well over an hour late and 2 hours after I ordered the food!! If you want your food quickly do not order from Cinnamon Island!!! The delivery driver was lovely and the food was hot and ok quality. I am not sure if they forgot our order as something doesn't add up?

My partner and I ordered our meal at 6.27pm and were informed it would arrive between 7.10 and 7.35pm. Sometime later our order was timed at 7.40 and 8.00pm. It didn’t arrive until 8.10pm. At least the driver said he was sorry for the delay but they were very busy. Pitiful. The food itself was excellent, beautifully cooked, tender main courses and full of flavour. Can’t fault the food but their time management is appalling which made our meal time very late and we both suffered

Late again I will not be Ordering from this restaurant ever again. It has been late all the time.

Excellent food and service. Highly recommended.

Ordered food at 21:55 didn’t turn up until midnight numerous calls to chase and find out where my ordered was

For a Tuesday evening the delay wasn't expected.On a Friday or Saturday but to wait over an hour passed the said delivery time is very disappointing for such a great restaurant.

Great food and great service as always.

Order from here regularly. Great food and quick delivery.

Wanting an authentic Bangladeshi experience I had the ‘Staff Curry’ from the menu, with the recommended pilau rice. It was very hot but absolutely delicious.

Food was perfect. Fresh, hot and on time. Absolutely 💯

Disappointing experience tonight, especially as food from cinnamon island is usually excellent. Food was ordered at 7.45 and originally set for delivery at 8.30. This was pushed back to 8.50 and then again to 9.30. It was marked on app as delivered at 9.20 so a call to the restaurant revealed it was still in the kitchen awaiting a delivery driver. It eventually turned up at 9.40. The food itself wasn’t up to the usual high quality, stodgy rice, burnt naan breads and greasy bhajis among the lowli

One of the tastiest Indian takeaway’s we’ve ever had. Will definitely be ordering from here again. 😋😋😋😋😋

Do not fall in the trap of the product names. It is completely made different and against your digestion system. False claim of being tasty but there is no salt only SUGAR SUGAR SUGAR. chicken korma please learn how to cook ...

food was spot on delivery was great

never go anywhere else superb food, always hot lovely delivery guys

Great food, very tasty & incredibly good value. Will certainly be ordering again. thank you 👍

My husband and I visited the restaurant last weekend whilst staying at the Marine Hotel. When we arrived at the restaurant we were the only guests so were a little worried but it soon filled up and I cannot tell you how wonderful our food was. In fact, it was the best Indian meal we’ve ever had!!! The service was wonderful too and plenty of happy smiling staff, nothing was too much trouble. My only negative is that we live too far away to visit again any time soon. Thank you 🙏🏻 Cinnamon Island

Great food. Excellent service thankyou

Glad I gave another chance food was amazing and massive portions highly recommend

these guys are brilliant. even allowing me to change an item from their meal for one set menu!!!!! they actually read your comments box and go above and beyond to please thwir customers

Order form here quite a bit, very rarely have an issue

Super curry, absolutely amazing Dahl too.

The lamb was tough,I’ve tasted better quality elsewhere.they used to cook really nicely but over the years the quality has definately gone down I’ve ordered from them for nearly 11 years now and it’s never tasted so bad! The meat should have been tender and easy to chew but it was like eating rubber! Please do better!

We have tried a few Indian restaurants in Dover and this is the best one! Excellent food, friendly staff, special thanks to Reyhan who served us last night. All the dishes both vegetarian and non vegetarian were very tasty.

I love this restaurant the food is always banging. Highly recommend 👌

Dinner was late but it was totally worth it! Food was hot and fresh thru never disappoint

Tastes wonderful but even better - arrives hot. Love it

Food was amazing. Delivered hot and fresh

Excellent fresh food tasty really lovely

We have ate at this restaurant since 2021. We live in France and always stay in Dover on our way to visit family. Generally visit Cinnamon Island 4-6 times a year and our most recent trip we ate here on 2 consecutive nights. The waiters are always very friendly and attentive and no different on this occasion. We have never had a bad experience with staff or food. Recommendations,I would say that everything we have eaten has been delicious and we would find it difficult to make specific choices.

Not only was it delicious, but it was piping hot too. The best food delivery I’ve had in taste, freshness and heat!

Dopiaza was swimming in oil. Onion bahjis were not cooked through. Soggy wet uncooked batter. Disappointed as this is the best Indian about normally.

Upon food arriving was left at door for I don't know how long was left there.wouldnt have been so bad as I could've heated it up but the whole order was completely wrong when I phoned the restaurant there was nothing that could be done as must've been driver error I have spent a lot of money on this meal and is not what I ordered I would like a complete refund NOW I am not happy

The food was cold when it arrived

The Biryani was far too salty, and the vegetable curry sauce bland. Shame, as last time it was amazing.

Food nice and hot will be order from them again

Chips were like oven chips fried tasteless mint sauce was watered down. Onion bajee coagulated and hard. Pomperdoms were damp and not crispy. Chicken Korma was ok.

Driver unable to correlate SatNav with actual world.

Great curry naga phal 🥵 and sides all good 👍👍

Food was lovely but needed reheating which meant puppidos were a bit stale and we were all starving by the time food arrived. We should expect at least 50% back for the lateness. Where is my refund please?

Absolutely excellent food. Tasty and hot. A pleasure for my taste buds.

It was over 20 minutes late, however our meal was extremely tasty.

Food always good worth waiting for.usually comes early.

Ice cream didn't exist. Had spread all over packaging so no way of eating it

Curry and garlic naan was nice but pappdoms were stale and onion bajees were rock hard.

Great service & food was hot & tasty

Our food was over a hour late and cold our order was over £160

Arrived quickly, food was hot and crispy, curries were spot on, nothing greasy, large portion sizes so plenty for each of us and picky bits leftover for tomorrow. Ordered from here a few times now, never disappointed :)

The food was amazing! I have always been wary of ordering from different places but our last place has messed up so many times so it was time to try a new place! We was recommended here and I can honestly say we will be ordering again! We had; Murgh Makhani, this was so flavourful with chicken tikka pieces and cheese was absolutely beautiful! Lamb korma, amazing flavourful not watery and the lamb was so tender Sag Aloo potatoes were cooked perfectly all round perfect! Onion Bhaji, perfectly cooked not burnt to a crisp and actually edible Only down fall was the mint yogurt it was spicy and the papadoms they was dry and not crunchy Overall it was a perfect Indian 100% recommended

Lovely food and delivered early

The madras didn’t seem like it was a madras very week not even spicy enough the chicken didn’t seem like it was chicken wasn’t happy with this order I would like a refund please

The chicken was undercooked and pink in the middle still.

Very good food, service and a back-drop out the window of Dover Castle in pink evening sunshine! What more could you want. The dishes were well flavoured and not all the same sauce as is often the case. Chicken and lamb dishes were good quality and binding bhaji and veg curry were fresh. We will return!

Probably the best Indian food I ever tasted - really carefully prepared and absolutely delicious. Attentive service, friendly staff and reasonably priced too. Shame I don’t live locally as this would be my ‘go to’ place !

Ordered 2hrs before needed, still arrived 45mins late. Limp poppadoms. Otherwise ok. Not on my re-order list

Delicious meal. Still hot and earlier than planned.

Never had a bad curry from here, probably the best in the area but unfortunately getting a little expensive!

This was my first order. The food did taste excellent, lamb was neatly trimmed of fat and fell apart in the mouth, though like the chicken seemed to be small in quantity and lost in the quantity of sauce. Unfortunately although we ordered 2 popadoms and chutney (and price wise we should have had a free popadom) no popadoms delivered! So mixed feelings lovely food but a bit diddled.

Great food as usual Thank you

Two very nice curries delivered on time. Both were tasty, spicy, well cooked and seasoned. The one rice was so fluffy and light I just don’t know how they do it. We both commented on the rice. All in all a very good and enjoyable meal.

Was looking for some Indian food whilst in Dover. Stumbled across this one. Thought give it a go. Was fantastic all the food was delicious. Best Garlic Nan bread I’ve eaten.

It was nice food.lot of money didn’t get some of the food we ordered

great food and delivery- delicious

Perfect meal. Arrived piping hot and was delicious!

Good meal but bad wording on there being lamb cutlets, as we were looking forward to such but filleted and tasted like a shoulder fillet. Needs to be more clear on the menu.

Stodgy bhaji and naan, disappointing.

I had to call the restaurant as the app told me my order would be an hour late.. I was due to go to work.. Customer service over the phone was fantastic and my food was delivered very quickly

Always enjoyable food. Be mindful to order well in advance and don't hold them to the delivery times. Our weekend delivery was advised it would be with us in 30 minutes. It arrived 1 hour and 50 minutes later.

35 minutes late, had to call them this is the third time they’ve been this late when I have previously ordered. Food was cold on arrival, chicken tough and chewy. Will not be ordering for them again. Should not be that late

Nice food, been craving it for ages. lived up to expectations.

Great curry the goan naga phal 👌👌

The nan breads were burnt. Curry was good

That was the most incredible curry I have ever eaten. Absolutely gorgeous, I ate the whole thing in one sitting. I had a Chicken Tikka Ceylon with Chicken Tikka Pilau Rice. Delicious!! 😛

Sam the delivery man wasn’t good he didn’t read the message on order correctly and was lost but wasn’t when he was outside door when it stated to call or text when outside called saying he was lost

Best Indian in Dover! Great food, especially the veggie dishes.

The curry was too watery and the chicken was or soft like water was injected into it and the rice tasted over cooked

Excellent food as always. We had the set menu for 2, which is more than enough.. However, they let us substitute a dish.

Our meal tonight was very good. Well cooked, full of flavour and spicy with out being hot. My naan bread was especially good, fluffy and well flavoured. Definitely order from three again.

The food finaooy arrived over 2 hours after ordering. The app told us the driver was on way. After 45mins and 2 phone calls to the restaurant, he turned up. The food was cold. Almost £45 for cold food, delivered late. More than disappointing. Won't be ordering again.

All the food was cold I have reported to just eat

Great food however was missing items called restaurant and they said they will bring the missing it’s straight away and never received them!

Overall we always have fantastic food at C Island, it’s always a family favourite for us. We ordered the meal for 2, we loved it so tasty and super hot when it arrived. We felt that the Jalfrezi was a touch to hot in terms of (Heat) but overall it was a great meal once again.

I ordered a prawn madras & rice, the rice was fine but the curry was awful, the prawns more like shrimps & they were very chewy, obviously been cooked to long & there was hardly any prawns,so i put it in the food waste bin, I may aswell of just ordered sauce. Very disappointing

What a gem, the food is great, staff helpfull and attentive. Would definitely reccomend anyone to give this place a try.

Great food. Great taste. Great service

Best Indian in Dover, excellent food.

Fantastic food.. slightly higher price than others in the area but it has never been bad.. love this place!
