Darjeeling in Bromley

Chewing gum in the naan bread!!!!! Filthy animals.

Awful. Portions are stingy. Have never seen such small rice containers and the curries half full. Missing poppodoms, Tarka daal and the lamb jalfrazi came as chicken, which is cheaper. The coconut & cashew nut rice came as plain rice, cheaper again. The peshwari naan had no fruit or nuts in it. Then to top it off, the restaurants phone number was constantly engaged so you cannot call to complain. My usual place was over an hour wait, should have waited. These crooks hook you in with the supposed 20% discount but their prices are high. It was a £58 order for what should have cost £45 anyway. Alas, there is no discount really. Just to hook you in. The food tasted ok. Nothing special. Just ok. Avoid like the plague.

2 wrong items chicken pakora was just breaded chicken Naans where like cardboard The hole food tasted bland waste of money

I’ve had food from you for the last 4 years! The food quality is so poor now! definitely not the usual great food we usually get but the last two times it’s been the same it looks and taste terrible the naan and onion Bhajis look and taste like ones from the shops not worth the £50 I’ve just spent won’t be ordering again

Order was wrong. Missing mango chutney and nanns were wrong flavour. I always order from Darjeeling but this time they dropped the ball completely

Constantly good every time I order.

Excellent service. Excellent food. We are regulars & have never had a problem. Highly recommend.

Good Quality and portion size (y)

The food that was ordered was damaged and it has water in the food and less salad. I'm not happy

Decided to give Darjeeling a go and ordered 6 mains (2 lamb and 4 chicken). Now I am not one for reviews let alone bad ones, but food was awful and all ended in the bin. All had the taste of undercooked generic sauce so made no difference if you were trying the curry/dupiaza/madras/bhuna/vegitable curry. All was very oily and lacked spices that make recognisable Indian curries a British favorite. All dishes looked the same unappetising mess with an overwhelming onion taste. After having spent nearly £43 on dinner, ended up having cheese and bread and that was 100 times better. This was an experience I will not be repeating.

Delicious as always, fast delivery and great quality food.

Food was hot, fresh and very tasty.

Very impressed with the service

Really nice food - would order from here again

It wasn't jalfrezi hot as requested. Was mild

The food was delicious and delivered quickly. Excellent value for money, will be ordering again. Thank you!

Top service followed my Notes. Food was very good May become my new to go to for Indian Takeaway Top Marks.

Rice was cold rogan josh was nice and hot though. It was okay not the tastiest but good for the money

Delicious tasty food. Chicken tikka is tender and juicy Rice tasty and fresh Would definitely recommend

Chicken Rogan was awful tasted like cheese had to throw away. Madras was good tho

Always a great curry from the Darjeeling

Excellent food at a reasonable price

Absolutely appalling, don’t mind waiting for the time that is stated but I was assured 30mins and my children are now hungry and way past there bed time Really unhappy

Great meal good service and very good value and plenty to choose from the menu only draw back to this restaurant is car parking

The food was delicious and enjoyed by all.

Feeling very tasty and polite delivery driver

Really good food and prompt delivery

This was the worst takeaway curry I have ever had. 7 of us ate, ordering a meat dish each plus 3 veggie dishes meaning we had a variety of dishes. From my lamb being tough, to the chicken korma being undercooked, the chicken tikka tasting 'tangy' and the 'veggie curry' basically being a tub of onions with a couple of potatoes and a few peas none of us were pleased that we chose to order from Darjeeling. To be fair to them the poppadoms were fine, it would have been nice if they had given some chutneys or dips to go with them, (maybe you have to order them separately?) steer clear.

Has been VERY late the last few times we ordered and the staff don’t seem to care when we call to enquire. The service and delivery has definitely gone down hill

Popadoms were soft awful. But main was nice

Once it got here it was beautiful but it was very hot in temperature

Too many onions and not advertised as spicy when it was 🔥🤯

Lovely food as always thanks very much

Ordered a peshwari naan but didn't get it, too much oil in my balti and tasted like vinegar and the chicken shashlik was watery and had no flavouring on it

Ordered a couple times now and defo found my favourite curry takeaway. Amazing food and prompt delivery times. Perfect service!

Was slightly out of our area but they still delivered to us . Thank you

Really nice food. Great flavour and nice size portions. Delivered on time. Highly recommended

Amazing quality and taste. Second order in a week. Very prompt service/delivery. Would recommend.

Lovely food. Great quality. Very good flavours. Reasonably priced. Would definitely order again. 👍🏽

20 minutes and counting.... it still hasn’t arrived! Can’t really rate the food as I haven’t had it yet.

Not bad, pilau rice had mushrooms in, bit strange and I hate mushrooms!

Tasty piping hot food delivered quickly

Thank you Chef for considering my special request.. Had a good evening with the food.

A little late, but food was amazing

Arrived pretty much on the time I chose, but tikka masala was way too salty and had a weird spice that I've never tasted in this curry

I was disappointed with the meal, it came 45 minutes after the ETA I was given. It looked as if the raita has been frozen and was still thawing, it also just looked like a cheap yoghurt with a couple of bits of cucumber. The curry taste wasn't horrendous but very watery.

Missing items as well as arriving ridiculously late. When we called to ask if they could come back and drop off the missing items as it’s a 2 minute drive down the road - they rudely refused whilst offering up no apology then hung up. Yeh was gobsmacked by the behaviour and what is essential theft of my money. Nothing short of a full refund would be appropriate.

Delicious,tasty, hot food. Great portion size Chicken is fresh and tasty Was 20 mins late but Friday night and raining so expected a delay.

Excellent food, even for delivery. Usually quality isn't as good but this was brilliant. Every dish was lovely. Generous portion sizes. Food had good consistency where as other Indian takeaways come quite runny. Overal was really good and will definitely order from here again.

The food is always great from here. It's not expensive, it's good quality and always arrives quickly. Usually early if it's a week night. They offer vegetarian options for most of the currys which is awesome and use big chunky vegetables

Delicious food and great value from a nice bunch of people.

Excellent food and wonderful customer service. Our delivery was late but when I phoned up the restaurant they were so informative and let me know it wouldn’t be long. To be honest I knew it was going to be slightly behind during COVID-19 but it was hot and tasted delicious. We will be back again soon.

There was some sort of bone or plastic in one of my onion bhajis that cut the roof of my mouth.

Food was okay. Onion bhajis were a bit dry and the poppadom was a bit soft but the curry/rice/naan were good.

However the food was delicious, plentiful and worth the wait xx

. £8.95 just for Chicken and nothing else is a bit pricey. Food was ok

Amazing as always. Regular customer

Excellent service. Top quality food!

Got a take away, service was prompt and efficient. Food was even better would highly recommend to anyone

The food is good quality. Felt a liitle cheated on the meat though.

Food was nearly 20minutes late, the chicken was awful pink and chewy I could not eat it. Would not recommend

The delivery was quick but the meal was not worth the price. I ordered Vegetable Balti with garlic Naan and mushroom rice. The rice was lovely, the Naan was plain not garlic and the veg balti consisted of potato, onion and cabbage which tasted sour. Was disappointed as I had read good reviews. I have rated the restaurant service as I could not submit the review without it although I did not have direct contact with the restaurant.

Food came very early, in my mind that meant the food had been microwaved and I was right, piping hot on the outside, barely warm in the middle, when you’re dealing with chicken you need to make sure it’s cooked properly otherwise you could end up killing someone. Also they forgot my drink and I had to ring up and ask for it. Won’t be ordering from here again

Good portion of prawns and lamb. All very tasty. 2 poppadoms for price of 1

Our favourite restaurant in Bromley. Great service and the food is always delicious with plenty of flavour. Compliments to the chefs. ⭐️

As always the nicest curry and always on time. So glad they are open again. Thank you!

Really nice food, taste great. Will order again

The chicken tikka masala was tasteless. The meat was tender but the sauce was flavourless.

Great food but forgot some of the order did then deliver later

The food when it eventually arrived (30 mins late) was average at best

Great food! Can’t fault it - clearly fresh and food flavours but like many others delivery was late despite specifying a deliver an hour later than my order was placed....Ona. Tuesday night!

Food arrived more than 2 hours after we ordered it and food was missing.

This is the third Indian takeaway I have tried locally and so far is the only one to tick all my boxes. Good flavours, it doesn’t all taste the same. Good portion sizes, some restaurants only half fill the containers and prompt service, foods still hot! I would order again.

Can't fault the food at all, it was great. One thing I hate though, is lateness and the food was 25 minutes late, I find this strange for a restaurant that is rather close and on a Monday evening. Will definitely give another chance, purely for the food quality, but if it's late again next time, I won't order from here again.

The lamb and chicken in our curries were very dry and taste less would not eat from there again

Food as usual is good but last time I will be ordering as yet again the delivery time is put back 3 times so that eventually food arrives an hour and 50 minutes after ordered. Just not good enough.

Great quality food at a good price! Food was slightly late but more than worth it. Will be ordering again

Food was awful. Butter chicken was far too sweet and too much coconut Vindaloo was not spicy Very greasy and containers had leaked

Tasty hot food, will definitely order again thank you

Amazing food. Won't be ordering from anyone else now!

Good quality authentic food and great service. Will use again.

Bland, greasy food. The biriyani was the worst I've ever had and the veg curry even worse. I eat a lot of curry in West Wickham / Bromley. This was by far the worst. Avoid

Awful curry very watery. Curry was split with water everywhere, very unpleasant. We could eat the curry which was very disappointing.

We regularly use The Darjeeling and have found it excellent however this time the lamb tikka (as part of a lamb shashlik) was very very tough and left us with teeth full of bits of lamb. The other dishes were very good.

Delivery was 5 minutes before time which it was great The food as always was tasty and delicious Definitely we will order again Thanks

The food was very bland, watery and oily. Wouldn’t order from here again.

Excellent food by far the best in the area will definitely order again.

I thought I would give this restaurant a go for a take away on a Saturday night as it is local. Delivery was 30 minutes late after they had told me the driver was out delivering. Food finally arrived, chicken tough and barely warm, chips soggy and cold, bottle of coke as flat as a pancake. Called up to complain, the main on the phone wasn’t interested in hearing my views. DO NOT USE

ive ordered food off them and its turned up 2 hours late...........when it turned up at 11pm i said i didnt want it anymore as id been ringing for ages and no one was answering............ went through there website tonight and wanted to order via paypal.as it clearly states you can.........then it registered on there site and automatically said i would by cash rang them and explained the situation and they still turned up expecting cash............ false advertising as they dont take paypal........... very disappointing as ive dealt with them for years...used to be lovely food. will no longer be recommending them or anything and shall be withdrawing my postive comments and contacting trading standards and paypal for false advertising and misleading website,

Food was only just warm. I ordered lamb shank £12 supposedly slowly braised with ginger, garlic and ground roasted spices...but what I got was a lamb shank in gravy. I asked the waiter if it was a boil in the bag from a supermarket and he said yes! No apology for the complete misrepresentation and no reduction in the bill. A truly awful meal would never go again. Service pretty poor.

We visited on Saturday evening and there was only one other couple there. We didn't mind though as easy to chat when it's nice and quiet. The service was good and the food very tasty. We had three courses and a glass of wine each and the bill came to £40 which we thought was very good.

Came as a couple, had starters and mains. Freshly cooked by the chef and tasted great! Also VERY reasonably priced and staff were so friendly. Will definitely return!

Food at this place is amazing. i usually get put off when someone says Indian food and if its not the authentic Indian. But this stands out. This is the best so far in and around Bromley to get value for money and yet taste the authentic Indian food. I order regularly from this place now :)

We waited an hour and 40 minutes for a takeaway, kept saying it was on its way when I rang to cancel. Obviously cold when it arrived. The dishes were very salty but not oily to be fair. We would not ever use them again, too many nice places around for such bad service.

One if a party of 12.booked for 8.still waiting for main course at 9.30. Told off for complaining...2 staff down and had takeaways to organise, I understand both of those things, but if we’d been told at the outset there would be substantial delays we could have made alternative arrangements or agreed to wait. As it was weren’t given that opportunity. I have been to this restaurant before and had no complaints despite the food being lacklustre. Won’t be returning. They need to decide priorities in times of difficulties. In mu opinion people ordering takeaways should have been advised that people in the restaurant would be served first.

Okay, the Wednesday night buffet price has increased, it's now £11.95. Still incredible value. The huge choice, good quality and good service remain. Actually, it's not really a buffet at all, as everything is freshly cooked to order. Drinks are reasonably priced. I guess looking at the other reviews, maybe take away is to be avoided? But at this price, go on a Wednesday and have a sit down - you know it makes sense.

Today we decided to get a lovely Indian takeaway after being sick and tired of Christmas roast dinners (what a bloody mistake that was) I would never order again from this place the food arrived after over an hours wait. We ordered up to £50 worth of food, obviously Indian is very expensive so you expect to get what you paid for ....decent, tasty food ( how wrong was we). I ordered the lamb curry more like "dog food curry" actually that wasn't even fit for a dog! There was a thick lining of oil on top of my curry and when I cut into the beef it was full of stringy fat with a blue/red colour honestly looked as if it was from before Christmas and they reheated the life out of it! Vile and that goes for all our food!

We have tried a few different indians in the area for takeaways as a comparison but we always come back to Darjeeling. The portions are always generous, lots of flavour and very reasonably priced. Only little negative is the sauces can be a on the oily side, less oil and it would definitely get 5 stars.

I've been a regular customer for the last 3 years, more take away than eat in. Food is always excellent, and very generous portions. All the dishes we've had have been superb. Restaurant itself is very smart and it's a shame it's often quiet. Maybe it's because it's out of town. I cannot recommend the food here highly enough.

Absolutely delicious meal. Good quality, well cooked lamb in the lamb palak. I especially like that the curries are not too oily like some other restaurants.
