Curry Mecca in Gravesham

Lovely food and great service although let down by the bill not receiving the deposit paid taken off and also charged for double measures of drinks when only singles were asked for need to be aware of over charging !!

Food was amazing , the young man who delivered my food was friendly and polite . It's great you have a excellent young man delivering your amazing food, makes a all round great service.

This review has nothing to do with the food as I am told it is the best Indian restaurant in town. I made a reservation through their web site on Friday and paid the deposit. The reservation was declined, possibly fully booked, but my deposit has been taken. I have phoned the restaurant and was told it would be dealt with but I have heard nothing.

Wow one of the best curry houses we have been to the butter chicken is amazing, the staff are very friendly the service is really good highly recommended

Food was great, the service was great and the staff were engaging.

So delicious, meat tender and full of flavour. Breads and rice were really great too.

Great food. Friendly and polite delivery driver. We enjoyed our food. Many thanks, highly rate the food we had.

Amazing food and service, could not fault a thing.

We attended tonight for our 37th anniversary the staff were very attentive ash was very knowledgeable it was our 1st visit and will definitely return in the future

Great food and excellent service highly recommend

Ordered a takeaway about six weeks ago which was excellent so tried again yesterday. Food once again excellent. Delivery was quicker than expected and the food nice and hot. I will definitely use them again and am happy to recommend them.

Food is abysmal. Quality is very poor with meat dead more than a month ago. Very stale n bland.

Everything you would expect from teh best curry house in Kent, they never disappoint. We are always made to feel welcome and the staff are just amazing. This is a weekly place for us now.

Wrong naan bread delivered, butter chicken was very greasy

Great food, great price! Best Indian I’ve had in years!!

proper old school gravesend curry. excellent

Absolutely amazing 🤩 Thanks so much .

Lovely indian restaurant, good portions, tasty food at reasonable prices. Good friendly efficient service

Food is always on time and always spot on

Shocking service, repeat phone calls to ask where my order was, turned up 2 hours later as the driver delivered it to a completely different address. Food was tasty but cold. Wouldn’t recommend

We’ve eaten at the restaurant and it the delivery was just as good. Think we have found out new go to restaurant 😍

Great food at affordable prices. Wide ranging menu with friendly attentive staff

We had a lovely evening meal here , the food was very good , the staff very attentive and a good ambience in the restaurant, Ash was our main waiter he had an amazing sense of humour and we had a lot of laughs ! The restaurant was packed which shows how popular this Indian restaurant is in gravesend- we will be back soon !

food was so good. full of really good flavours. didn't mind the lateness after tasting how good this food was. 5/5

Turned up exactly on time and delicious Thank you

We returned for another visit, you will not be disappointed here the service is very good the staff are very friendly, the food is great highly recommended

The food here is amazing, I have been twice in the last 6 months (not local to me) and I would highly recommend. The guy greeted us with energy and enthusiasm, he is a delightful character who added to our experience. The poppadoms and sauces excited us to what was ahead. I eat curry fairly regularly but this is my first review of a curry house. The king prawns are actually what you'd expect a king prawn to look and taste like!! The flavours and spices are on point, the bread fresh and we'll made/cooked and all priced reasonably. Most importantly the morning after did not leave me asking questions as other stablishments have previously. Recommend this place, recommend it to people without having tried it... they will be thankful of you!!

Food was spot on, delivered earlier than expected. 10/10

Best sit in Indian I have had in Gravesend and first time visit, have also had takeaway since and will be back again 👌

Went here last night with a colleague and the food was so good!! We're working here but would definitely come back if in the area.

Was looking at trying a different takeaway. Have not been to curry Mecca for years so thought I’d give it a go. Takeaway for 5 and did not disappoint. Good was fresh hot and very tasty. Lamb madras was excellent, full of flavour and spice. Will be venturing here again.

Completely wrong curry was sent

absolutely delicious meal, best curry we've had in ages. delivery was quick and friendly.

I booked for myself, husband and daughter on a Friday night using the online booking form on the website. I was told a £30 holding fee would apply but so long as we turned up the fee would not actually be charged. This is a lie. I was charged plus almost £80 for dinner. I have contacted both curry Mecca and the online booking neither of whom had responded. Very unprofessional. Now with my credit card and will be reporting curry Mecca. On top of that The meal itself was not great. We had to wait almost an hour for our meal - When questioned where food was we were initially told it was because we ordered duck and that took a long time to cook!! Eventually they admitted it was their mistake but didn’t offer a discount either. We certainly would not recommend and would not return

Bland, cold and delivery took forever. Disappointing for an “award winning” restaurant

I love it I love it I love it and it’s my first experience with Indian food and me and my family really enjoyed it. Thankyou so much and I can’t wait to eat hear again.

Orederrd a tekeawy for delivery from here after waiting 3 hours for it to arrive we eventually went and picket it up, the chicken tikka had bones in it and was chewey and for £63 the portions were small. Won’t be using again

Perfect, could not fault, got a regular here!

We decided to get a takeaway from here having eaten here and ordered takeaways many times over the past 40 years. The food was not great. If we had been served this in the restaurant, we would have complained. The onion bhajees were not hot and possibly not freshly cooked. They were stale tasting and dry. The chicken tikka was very strange. The bounciness of the chicken in your mouth made you think it may have been undercooked but it was not. It was difficult to chew or bite into. I appreciate NYE they were going to be busy. We telephoned our order at 5pm and collected at 5.45, as instructed. The journey home took 10 minutes but none of the dishes were that warm & definitely not hot. The chicken in the other 3 dishes was nice, just not hot. This was possibly the worst meal we have had in quite some time. Will not be rushing back

Still waiting for my food. Now 2 hours late. Restaurant not answering their phone and have given a derisory £3 refund. As a frequent customer I am very disappointed. I understand it is NYE but don’t accept orders if you can’t fulfill them

Waiting 2 hours and still not received my food

Says enjoy my food but I still haven’t had it been waiting for 2hrs now

Good had items missing and was like warm on arrival

Very friendly environment. Great food and overall perfect evening with friends and consistent.

The food was ordered at 18.54 and didn't arrive until 21.18. We were missing 2 naan breads and received a Vegetarian instead of Madras. The food was okay not great, overall disappointing experience.

Was very nice and the best one in Kent I've tried

Lovely take away, now going to go to the restaurant for our meal, thank you curry Mecca really enjoyed you food. Tony

They finally gave me mango chutney after the 5th time of me asking, continue and I’ll give another 5 star review, don’t and….heheh

tried again after reading reviews and sorry it wasn't great.food was swimming in grease, the lamb passanda was not a passanda tasted of vinegar with no cream in it. the lamb was also chewy.

No complaints 👌 and your delivery lady is always nice and friendly too. Thank you

quick service the food was nice thanks. will use again.

Excellent food, service. Coming back soon ! Staff always helpful and efficient. Now its got more cups than Tottenham .

A lovely friendly and clean place with amazing food and choice of food. The staff were so tentative and welcoming.

Had an absolutely fantastic experience here yesterday. Some of the best Indian food I've ever eaten, with fantastic service (food was brought out quickly, and all of the staff were incredibly polite and pleasant), and reasonable prices. We were in a large party of 14, and they were able to accommodate us easily. I literally have nothing bad to say. Incredibly impressed, and I'll definitely be returning again. Thank you guys!

Shockingly slow delivery. Order placed online at 17:47pm, then got a phone call to say they were outside at 19:09pm. That's 1 hour and 22 minutes. I only ordered 1 madras, 1 plain rice and 1 naan. I phoned to ask what was taking so long, and the man on the phone was very unbothered, and blamed "the road", which was obviously a lie. Terrible attitude. If they called and politely explained they needed more time, I would have been okay with that. But they didn't. Most people won't wait more than 1 hour for a takeaway, and waiting 1 hour is already on the longer side. Whilst the food itself was fine, the delivery and customer service was unacceptable. Will never order again.

Always brilliant food and speedy delivery. Our location is a bit tricky but they always find us and ring when arrives. Used them for 4years.

Ordered take away - total cost was £50 between 3 of us Chicken was pink Didn't eat any of it. Never using them again.

We've tried quite a few of the Indian restaurants in the area and THIS is the one we keep coming back to. The food is always very good and the staff have taken care of us every time. Keep up the good standard and we will keep returning. Great tandoori dishes too.

The food here was fantastic....unfortunately, when the starters come out 5-10min after the mains it doesn't really sit well, especially when you ask shouldn't the starters come first....yes £20 was taken off of the bill but 4 out of the 5 starters weren't eaten and this came to more than the £20! An apology being received from the manager should link in with covering the starters that weren't eaten as a result surely?

The Staff are brilliant and the food was amazing. Lamb Chops was on point.

AlThough we tried to prior book on the phone, they didn't answer, and when we turned up, they said they needed the table for an 8o clock booking. This was at 6.40pm and we agreed to vacate by 8.00pm. We ordered beers and poppadoms and 10 minutes later were asked if we were ready to order to which we answered not quite. We were then approached by the manage Ash Hussain who demanded we order immediately as he wanted the table. The staff were intimidated. The whole experience was dreadful . So we paid only for the drinks and left feeling upset and the wonderful waiting staff being bullied. Until that horrible owner can find a new opportunity for his non skills. We cannot recommend this establishment.

Lamb shashlik extremely salty and swimming in grease. No side salad. Sag paneer extremely salty.

The only place I go for a curry. Excellent food and service.

Quality Indian dining experience from your very own home!

No issues. Food was lovely. Thank you

They tried to deliver to my neighbour at 22A instead of me at 22.

Best curry in Kent hands down! Really enjoyed it, thank you 😊

Best curry house in Kent Lovely Food Lovely Staff

Lovely food, hot and great quality. Will definitely order from them again.

This place keeps getting better, food is perfection and all the staff are very helpful and polite. They make sure everything is perfect and so very clean.

Not a huge issue. I think that the delivery driver found it difficult to access our house because of local roead works. The food, as ever form Curry Mecca was very tasty.

Very nice but it did take an hour.

Gorgeous food as always from the Mecca!

Absolutely excellent as always and will definitely be ordering again

night out with the lads ( well all 4 of us ) greta meal as ever. Portions are great.. the food portions are brilliant.. as a group we love the place. Staff are very helpful and eager to help. The waiter happy to suggest different ideas against your normal and to assist if taking home left overs.. Brilliant

First time visiting restaurant will definitely will be returning back food & service excellent

Absolutely stunning. The food here is so good, it has me cheating on my regular Curry house! I've had the Rezzala, the Lal Mirch, and other dishes - they're all fantastic. The sauces are thick and rich and not too sweet and not at all watery. The Bombay potato is nice, can't fault the other sides either! The service is also very good and another thing I can't fault. My group are all a big fan of spice but the dishes seem to be plenty flavourful even when it's a mild dish. So caters to all tastes.

Great restaurant .. delicious curry

Nice cosy dining experience. Nice food. Service is very good. Prices average for area.

For me, this is one of the best Indian Restaurants in Gravesend and perhaps further in terms of great, tasty Indian cuisine. Highly recommended Steve No7

Lovely as usual and hot this time. No issues at all. Thank you

Absolutely fantastic food, we have been coming here monthly now. We are treated like friends here. Wonderful service by MJ along with a great sense of humour. If you want a good curry come here. I’ve recommended it to friends; it’s now their favourite curry house.

Been eating at Curry Mecca on and off for 40 years it has always been great food . The restaurant itself has been updated but the food is still the great standard and the service is also still great . Let's see if I can get another 40 years 👍

Omg the best service and the best food, What a goldmine in the middle of Gravesend, the service was absolutely amazing and friendly and the food was just amazing and not rushed at all and very clean, we will definitely be returning for another meal xxx

Very friendly staff, excellent food and would recommend you visit to taste their delicious menus.

Lovely food, service and atmosphere 👍🏼

For two to three years, two friends, my wife and I have been trying out restaurants in the Gravesend area. Over the course of this time we have tried out a number of different cuisines with the intention of finding our favourite go-to restaurant. Without a doubt, Curry Mecca got our vote and we have now been going on a monthly basis for some 18 months. I fail to understand some of the criticisms levelled at the food and staff. Our meals have always been excellent and the staff, especially the manager, treat us like friends. I wonder what does please those reviewers who are so critical!

Food was cold again ! Not the first time either !

Very poor on this occasion. Five of us visited on a Saturday evening. We waited an hour between courses. When the food arrived (both starters and mains) it was wrong. When the mains did arrive correctly it was tasteless. The staff tried very hard but they were clearly too busy to accommodate all diners.

The food was Luke warm I ordered mushroom rice and didn’t get it l got coconut rice which I hate. All in all this is the worst meal I have ever had from Mecca curry

Was absolutely perfect, tandoori chicken was absolutely amazing as well as the chicken chat purée! Phenomenal will be ordering from here again big shoutout to the kitchen!

Food was delicious. Plentiful. Delivery driver was very friendly.

Didn’t receive my keema Naan and they sent the wrong rice. Rest was nice

Very pleased with order . Lovely delivery lady . Good service from start to finish . Thank you

Lovely food and very friendly people

Delivery was on time. However, half of the poppadoms were all smashed up. My chicken korma tasted of nothing and was so grainy. Also, my sag paneer had no taste to it. Wasn't awful but just very bland. Wouldn't order from their again.

First time eating in and what a great experience, food was so well cooked and all staff very polite. Would recommend visiting or ordering a take away .

Food arrived late and was cold, this is a first for me. Not very happy

The food here is so delicious. The staff are attentive without being too much. We didn't have to wait to long for our food and we were satisfied with our meal.

Been using the curry Mecca for some time always friendly. Food excellent I am fussy but got to say it’s the best Dansak I have had. Have to pick up as live in new barn but well worth the journey
