Curry Leaf Indian Restaurant Takeaway in North East Derbyshire

Ordered from here on recommendation whilst staying in the area for a few days, Got to say it was one of the nicest Indian's I have ever tasted, polite and speedy delivery and easy app to use . Would 100% recommend.

Another fantastic meal. Had 3 takeaways in the space of a month. Great service. Always friendly staff. Can’t wait for next one 😋

I'd give this place 0 stars for service if I could, but since that's not an option, I'll settle for one. Our experience today was awful from start to finish. When we walked in, an older staff member looked at us like we were stupid just because we wanted to order a few starters. He took our order, but barely looked at us and seemed completely uninterested. The food did take a reasonable amount of time to arrive, but what really stood out was the complete lack of engagement from our server. When he finally brought out our food, he didn't even acknowledge us - he just held out the bag and handed it over without a word or even making eye contact. The contrast between his initial unfriendly demeanor and the otherwise acceptable wait time for our food made the experience feel particularly disappointing. As a result, we'll be taking our business elsewhere and exploring other options that prioritize customer service.

Visited on a Thursday night with my brother. We arrived approx 9.15pm and only one table eating. All staff sat down chatting so had to ask if they were still open and serving. We were seated and served drinks. Waiter popped over about 10 minutes later and said ‘have your ordered’. No hello, no how are you. Ordered our dishes which arrived quickly and the food was ok. The other table sat behind us left leaving only us in. The waiters then proceeded to get a vacuum out and started vacuuming around us while we were still eating. We felt rushed and were asked to move to a sofa when we finished our food as we were still enjoying our drinks. The owner or barman then said ‘we are closing, can you leave’!!!! All the lights were turned off around us so quickly finished our drinks and left. In hindsight we should have gone to Ayeshas or the Samad cottage as these restaurants value customers more than the Mint leaf who made us feel unwelcome and a bit of an inconvenience. Won’t be back.

Missing items in our order, replaced with items we didn’t want and the curry’s we ordered were lacking in flavour. The lamb biryani tasted more like mutton, extremely chewy. The nans were broken up and tiny for what they charge…Overall, extremely dissatisfied and would not recommend.
