Our first time at the new location and it most certainly won’t be our last! The best chicken tikka I’ve ever tasted! The food was outstanding and how friendly the family team are! We will be back very soon

The best! We have loved the cinnamon tree for years and this was our first curry from their new location in Trallwn. Happy to confirm it's as good as its always been. Hands down the best vegetarian curry, the paneer is the tastiest we have had and the portions are so generous! Happy new home guys. So glad we still have you in Ponty x

Disgusting soft poppadoms that were definitely not fresh. Shame really because the rest of the meal was up to the Cinnamon Tree's usual high standards and that spoiled it. It's put us off ordering here for a while.

First time trying this place and really disappointed - felt rushed and food was really greasy in some dishes. Came for a family birthday and the value for money just didn’t reflect the quality of the foods we were served. Honestly had better at my local high street Indian takeaway, so won’t be going back again. £200+ for a party of 6 to have mains and shared starters is ridiculous.

So I thought I’d give it another chance but I must say it was awful again, I had to tip the grease out of the madras before eating it and then it was so bland, chips were tasteless and undercooked, Nan and popadoms were good, the mrs had a chicken tikka masala and said the chicken was as tough, sorry you used to be a good Indian now it’s overpriced and terrible

Was looking forward to my order tonight. King prawn korma, keema naan, pilau rice, and chips. What huge disappointment it was. Don't get me wrong, I like a big prawn, but these were huge and only 5 in the whole curry. They were overcooked and had the texture of rubber. The naan was cold and chewy. The rice was the only thing that I ate. From the reviews, this might have been a one-off but won't be ordering from here again just in case.

Slow service, poor quality, bland and tasteless, worst Indian food I have ever had. Dry meat and two totally different curries has zero flavour to them. I think from the way they reacted to us wanted to order off the menu this is really just a buffet restaurant. We waited over an hour for 2 curries and 2 rice. The restaurant was about 50% full with most of those have a self service buffet We won’t be returning. Expensive for such a poor meal.

Absolutely dreadful service. We were not allowed to order our meal at the same time as our drinks. We were given our poppadoms before ordering, we waited for a long time to order, the restaurant was not busy. The waitress was chewing gum when she finally came to take our order. We then waited ages for our dinner and when it arrived the Chicken Pasanda was Lamb. We called the waitress over to say we had the wrong food, she then asked, did we not like lamb. I said not really and we ordered the Chicken. She came back with what was slices of Tandoori Chicken in what I can only describe as soup. It was definitely not Pasanda sauce, it had a runny consistency as well as being a completely different colour to the original sauce. Bitterly disappointed after reading the reviews. I would recommend not eating here and personally I will never return. We are now having issues with the manager.

Came in with £21 for an adult buffet and left stuffed and satisfied. I enjoyed every selection of dishes along with fresh chewy naan and deliciously crispy sides. Table service was excellent and the staff are polite and swift to work, made the experience so much better. I would recommend the chickpea curry, it's mildly spicy with perfectly cooked chickpeas that melt in your mouth. If you're getting dessert, you should order the mango brulee- fresh and creamy mango ice cream topped with a layer of crispy caramilised sugar. Definitely worth the price in my opinion. Bring some friends and family to share the joy 😊.

This used to be our favourite restaurant. We were well known to the previous management and my students often served us. Now the servers barely if at all crack a smile and the manageress barks at us about buying drinks. We had no plates for the appetiser, which was an oversight that no-one serving wanted to address. On top of all that, it was twice as expensive as a takeaway at another local without the food being any better.

We've been to The Cinnamon Tree a couple of times now, and although the food is good it's unlikely we'll be returning. Unfortunately it is very expensive for the portion size, and combined with the slow service we left feeling a little underwhelmed. We waited for a while for our order to be taken with staff walking past us multiple times, and when we caught the waitress's attention and asked if we could order we were told to wait as someone who arrived before us should order first. We had one of the mixed starters and for £13 we only received 8 pieces, with each piece being very small. My curry was flavourful, but only had small pieces of low quality chicken. It was served in a plain bowl with no extra garnish and looked distinctly disappointing for the £13.95 price, especially when compared to the other curry which came in a nice copper bowl with a lot more chicken. The size of the sides were also very small, and we would have expected more rice for the £4.25 pricetag. We were also charged £3.50 for a pint of orange squash. Our naan bread was also forgotten to begin with and we were assured it was coming but after 10 minutes we had to chase it up. It was very good when we received it, but by that time we had eaten most of the curries, even when pausing to wait for 5 minutes. Overall the service was very slow and although the food was tasty the presentation and portion size did not make it worth price which was just shy of £60. Overall you can get better food and more attentive dining experience elsewhere.

We visited the restaurant on a Sunday the service we received was second to none. The staff were polite and attentive throughout our visit and nothing was too much trouble when we asked questions. We had an array of food during our visit all of which was flavoursome and beautifully presented. The buffet was also on during our visit but we chose to order from the main menu, there wasn't a wait of any sort when ordering and the timing between the starters and mains arriving was perfect. In fact we were asked if we were ready for our mains which was a nice touch. Overall it was one of the best meals we have had in a while, it's a lovely family run restaurant with food that packs a punch. If you like spice and good food then you won't be disappointed, I cannot wait until our next visit.

We were not disappointed: service staff were very friendly and amenable, and the food was very good quality- my personal favourite is the Chicken Tikka Masala, which, alongside everything else available, was delicious. We plan on going again very soon for another Sunday all-you-can-eat, once we stop feeling full from our last visit!
