Do not get take aways from this restaurant The take away meal we had delivered from these people has to be the worst meal I have ever had. The lamb sag was boiled meat with some spinach and a very flavorless gravey. The chicken curry just as bad. The 2 vegetable dishes consisted of a watery gravy, a few bits of veg and again no flavour. To compound it all it was delivered 30 minutes late, after a hurry up by phone, dishes were bearly warm. Next day I have a few extra visits to the toilet!

We have a takeaway from the Cumin Garden almost every week. Each time the food arrives quickly, is piping hot and delicious. Sometimes a takeaway can lose its quality by the time it arrives, but this has never happensfrom the Cumin Garden. We even burn our fingers getting the nan bread out of the bag. The chicken is always white breast meat. I have also eaten in the restaurant as recently as beginning of August, we were a big party and everybody said how lovely the food/service was. Mohammed is a real asset to the restaurant. He is always so friendly and professional. He even delivers our takeaways on occasions and always with a smile. We would never eat at another Indian as we know we would be very disappointed.

We ordered 2 mixed starters, 2 mains and 2 pilau rice from here at the weekend. The starters were good on the whole - samosas nicely spiced, bhaji fresh, chicken tikka nice, seekh kebab tasted good but was a bit on the dry side (brittle). Mains were also good. Nice, good quality breast meat in the chicken dishes and generous portions.

I used to recomend this gaf, but the out fit has slid down hill, just ordered a feast and almost everything was sub standard compared to what I've had in the past, they offered me a deal next visit, but I won't be returning!

We come here a lot and we never get disappointed the chicken tikka masala is my favourite but I always try something new and the vegetable samosas are one of my meal I recently discovered and are super tasty. My mum loves the onion bhaajis. The owners are nice and now know us as regulars. Would recommend ~ Louis ( age 10 )

I had a fantastic night with a few mates. The food was perfect… I asked for my chilli chicken tikka masala medium spicy… the spice was perfect. The service was also perfect… it was very busy in the restaurant but you wouldn’t have known… we couldn’t have asked for more attentive staff. The beers were once again perfect… ice cold as they should be. Well done and thanks to all the staff.

Having ordered off the menu on all previous occasions I have found the food to be very good, but the Sunday Buffet is very disappointing. The food is just bland, no spice at all. The chicken tikka masala tastes like korma (sweetness and coconut), the chicken dansak tastes like korma. It's basically totally made for, dare I say it, "white" palates. Samosas are good, as is the rice, but all the dishes are so plain and lacking any kind of heat. Have milder options - fair enough (they actually had korma there, not that I tried it) but please cater for those of us who like a bit of spice and heat.

Another fantastic takeaway last night. Food arrived well within about 30mins and piping hot. Seekh kebab and chicken tikka starters were absolutely delicious. Never had a bad meal from here, would highly recommend - definitely better than any others around.

Visited on a very busy Saturday night. Very slow service. Perhaps the significant takeaway element seemed to distract the kitchen whilst they sold us more drinks as we waited. Our party had 4 different mains and starters which all looked the same brown colour sauce. Very average tasting food, little taste or spicing. Staff indifferent. Very disappointed given reviews.

Ate there last night with friends. The place was “jumping”! Every table taken and, clearly, they were turning the tables as well. Clearly, a good take away business as well. The staff are great, and the food and portions excellent. A great place to have locally, especially with The Hive ( craft beer shop) next door.

Small local Indian restaurant that has a really broad menu. Something for everyone. I went with a mate on a Friday night and it was really busy. Every table was taken. I’ve been to other places where, on their busiest nights, service deteriorates because insufficient staff are employed. Not here. The service was excellent and whichever waited was passing kept checking the food was ok and asked us whether we wanted more drinks. The food was more than ok. It was excellent. Arrived quickly, portions were good and it was hot. Highly recommended.

Our first time of trying this place. Our delivery did take 90 minutes instead of the projected 45 but the food made up for that. Really nice flavours and actually some spice for a change! We ordered the mixed starter, chicken karahi, chicken bhuna and 2 lots of rice. Nice white breast meat and plenty of it. We will definitely order from Cumin Garden again.

My husband and I went to Daruchini for an early meal, there was only one other couple in the restaurant, we ordered and our popadoms arrived which we enjoyed with all the pickles. After an hour I asked the man who appeared to be in charge where our meal was , he went to investigate and two warm plates were put on our table, the food arrived about five minutes later but the plates had got cold by then. The food was very nice and we both enjoyed our meals , asked for the bill which was put on the table and then the waiter said to pay at the bar which we did , the same man processed our credit card and never said a word about our experience, would have expected him to ask if we enjoyed our meal and to say sorry for the wait.

Regrettably, I am compelled to give this restaurant a zero-star rating. Despite initial positive reviews, our family dinner turned out to be an incredibly disappointing experience. Initially, they confirmed a reservation for our family of six but emphasized the necessity of an appointment and the restriction on bringing a dog due to potential inconvenience to other guests. Upon our arrival, we were the sole patrons during the entire three-hour visit, with no other customers even for takeout. The waiter's discourteous request for us to write down our own orders set a perplexing tone. The subsequent delays in delivering lukewarm dishes, particularly the excessively chewy and artificially colored chicken tikka, further marred our dining experience. All our ordered curries, apart from the Dal tadka, unexpectedly had a sweet flavor. Compounding the issue, the same individual served as both receptionist and waiter, displaying a lack of responsiveness to our needs. We had to approach him for basic requests such as additional cutlery and drinking water. His constant cellphone use demonstrated a lack of professionalism. Upon settling the bill, the waiter refused to provide a physical copy, citing a peculiar policy. Despite my insistence on its necessity, he directed me to email or physically visit for a receipt, leaving me puzzled. In summary, as a dedicated food enthusiast, this stands as my most unsatisfactory restaurant experience to date. I strongly discourage anyone from visiting this establishment, particularly if expecting authentic Indian cuisine, as it specializes in Bangladeshi dishes.
