Desi Indian Dining Club in Thurrock

Not nice madras, but unfortunately didn’t like the lamb tikka biryani (pretty sweet taste) also the Peshawari naan wasn’t nice at all unfortunately. Also ordered meat samosas n got vegetable samosas instead, popadoms were not fresh. I don’t usually order lamb tikka biryani or peshwari naan from ere, I do from elsewhere, but thought I’d give it a try, unfortunately won’t be ordering that again. Was disappointed on the food this time, I order DESI once a week n sometimes twice a week.

first time ordering from here in about 8 years, food was stunning!

Excellent as always. Best curry house ❤️❤️❤️

Can't be beaten with the right company. Excellent staff couldn't make you feel more welcome and the food is banging 👌

AMAZING!!!! Food was great , vibes was good staff was amazing and very catering . There was 22 of us for a birthday meal and they help made everything run smoothly and the birthday boy really enjoyed his time. Also they was great with my Autistic son they split his food up in different bowls and even offered him Ketchup and he was over the moon

Excellent food, and spot on time. Made for a lovely treat at the end of a busy week… thanks Desi.

possibly one of the worst curry's I've ever experienced, no flavour and watery, full of grease too. Waste of money and ended up in the bin.

Words can’t describe how beautiful n tasty food is from DESI. Always look after me, treat me good n show that respect. I wouldn’t go elsewhere! Thank you so much.

Excellent excellent excellent as always. Phenomenal service.

Such lovely service and food is just amazing!

The food tastes so good I will be ordering from them in the near future for sure.

Last minute decision and a good one: an excellent meal.

Excellent meal. Lovely vindaloo.

Absolutely perfect! Mango chicken was amazing.

All very tasty and prompt service, can't ask for more

1st time and we will definitely be back. Very friendly front of house. Moved us to a bigger table when one became available. The £14.95 menu is brilliant value and the portion ls are huge. More importantly the food is great. It was busy and deservedly so.

Usually we have amazing food but this time curries we're bland and onion bhaji tasted undercooked. Hopefully this is just a one-off.

Normally really nice but very poor no flavour in the meal this time really disappointed especially how much we spent

The food is beautiful, and the order arrived in a great amount of time. 10/10 always

The korma didn’t even taste like a korma the food just wasn’t nice and popadoms were stale

standards never drop, food is always on point! love this place

Always the best food, comes on time and great service

Excellent as always. Thank you DESI.

Never disappoints… fantastic atmosphere and great service

Excellent food, taste was lovely!! fast delivery

Home late so ordered a meal for “ASAP” and it arrived in less than 30 minutes!.Excellent service and lovely food as usual… thank you.

I loved this restaurant so much I have been here thrice with my work colleagues for dinner. The food is absolutely delicious, the staff are friendly, the atmosphere is amazing. I loved the karaoke entertainment is very unique, you can’t find it anywhere else. I highly recommend this restaurant.

was freezing cold the popadum was crushed into pieces the butter chicken was oily no flavour to any of it and loads water swimming on my plate would never order from here again

An excellent meal and delivered spot on time. Perfect … thank you Desi.

Food was hot and tasted amazing. Generous portions. The chilli cheese balls are fantastic.

Excellent food. Never fails to impress.

chicken and lamb was tough and dry. I would say it's been sitting pre-cooked in the fridge for far too long. Bombay potatoes had a strange taste. Sheek kebab was OK as was cooked fresh. Shame as used to be decent.

The strangest tasting chicken tikka couldn’t eat it. Chicken quality was poor in both the korma and tikka. Samosas were extra greasy and Bombay potato was weak in taste.

The whole meal was terrible. Will go somewhere else next time.

The food here is terrible. Don’t order from here as items that arrived were frozen and inedible!

Had a delivery it was horrible. Bearly warm, hard chicken, mixed grill reheated and hard. Nothing was fresh. Only nice thing was popadom and sauce.

Food arrived early and hot and fresh. Friendly delivery driver also. 10/10 will definitely order again

This is a great place and excellent value for money

Really delicious meal, enjoyed by all.

Food was amazing, as always. Hot. So tasty and well cooked. Also arrived early so even better.

Arrived so fast tasted amazing piping hot and lots for the money so great value too happy customer first order and won’t be the last thanks

Lovely food, nice and warm and tasty! Got an extra poppadom and mint sauce also which was a lovely bonus thank you 🙂

Missing Parts of the Order other then that the quality and food was good the chicken was a bit dry however

Excellent as always. First this year, now sanity has returned, and set me up to start the diet on Monday !

lamb biryani was very tasty , would it be possible to have a option if you want something else if you don't want the vegetable curry that comes with it?.

very bland, cold and the poppadoms were 3 days old.

I understand it’s NYE but Order has not been received as yet and is currently nearly 2 hours late as estimated delivery was 9.15 to 9.35 and it’s now 11.15! I cannot rate the quality of the food as it’s not been received!

Excellent as always I wish there were more stars. DESI never fails to impress. Thank you so much everyone at DESI. 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

Excellent, best, beautiful n very tasty.

Best fresh curry in town. Best of the best.

Excellent as always. Never fails to impress

Excellent as always. Thank you everyone at DESI

food is always amazing. Our go to indian

Lovely evening and perfect service from sunny and the team

Ordered a take out tonight as it was a special occasion. Firstly they charge for a carrier bag priced at 20p that is extortion. The food was cold! Bhajis were dripping oil, and soggy. The dupiaza ordered was overly spiced, far too much chilli. Inedible due to it. The meat was tough too. The lamb dish was the same and the meat was so tough it could not be chewed. Poppadums were smashed to bits like dust! £60 odd in the bin. We will never return as it was absolute rubbish! Terrible that they serve cold inedible food we are less than 0.5 miles away so no excuse!

Tried Bombay Badboy for the 1st time. Amazing 👏

Great food, always hot. Great value and top quality food.

The service was brilliant very well presented people and very friendly staff, but unfortunately the food wasn’t there for me it was lacking a lot of flavour

Brilliant …needed cheering up after a tricky week and this did just the job. Excellent food and an excellent service … thanks Desi.

Wow! What can I say? This restaurant is absolutely amazing! The food is very delicious! The staff are so friendly, warm and accommodating! They really make you feel at ease and they are very interactive! The atmosphere is second to none, especially on a Friday night. You can also bring your own alcohol, which is really good as well. It's very rare that I give an establishment a 5 star rating all round, but this restaurant definitely deserves it. Highly recommended!

Such a tidy restaurant with the yummiest food. The service was so good and Sunny our waiter was so attentive and a good laugh too. Thanks so much for your warm welcome! - Ray, Lucy and Vik

A fantastic experience! The staff are very friendly and attentive and the food is amazing! We had a 4-course meal for only £15! Small touches made this experience exceptional such as the dry ice on the table when the mains arrived, the warm hand towel and the chocolate with the bill. Shout out to Sunny who was our waiter who went above and beyond to make our night what it was. We will be back for 'Curryoke' Friday! Highly recommend visiting this restaurant 👍🏼

I love desi food. Their food is finger licking good. All the food taste is mindblowing. They made my day with their food & service. Best place I have visit ever visited. Thank you guys.

love this restaurant but expensive

Food is very good - beautifully presented,good sized portions and very tasty! All staff are very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend if you like good food, music and a great night out!

Food was good service was amazing prices are fair would definitely recommend to go had the 4 course offer £1495 pp

Always order from Desi but tonight the quality was very poor. Food arrived luke warm, watery and tasteless. Very disappointed to say the least

Always a great time here with great food and a brilliant service

Very nice food highly recommended

Great food and great service. Highly recommended!

Too good, excellent food, service from sunny was top noch. Best food I have had in a long time. Great value for money . Recommended to anyone. Very very satisfying. 10 is not a high enough score.

We came here for a birthday and was served by Sunny. He was very attentive, accommodating, and attended to all our needs. The service is excellent, staff are very kind, friendly and welcoming. Food was amazing and faultless. We will definitely be coming more often!

Was my go to Indian. Last 2 orders have let me down. Last night king prawn main was over cooked, for £13 dish I expect better. Will be trying village India next time

Can’t believe how expensive your chicken madras is!!! From £10.95 to £12.95!!!! Your curry is already expensive sir, n now it’s even more expensive, you don’t even pay that price in Mayfair!!! Everywhere else in grays Indian restaurants the madras is between £7.45 to £8.95!!!!! I’m sorry you really need to reduce your prices!!!! Not just on the madras. After 15years buying from you, I’ve gone somewhere else. I used to buy of you 2/3 times a week!!!! Now I buy from Agra n it’s as good as yours for £7.95!!!! I’ll comeback when you’ve reduced your prices on everything. Thank you so much. I just had to tell you, before you start losing customers 1 by 1!!! Thank you so much.

Never do I have a more pleasant meal than when I’m at Desi! The team are so polite and helpful, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Thanks Adam, for the wonderful care given to us. Considering the fresh ingredients and flavorful dishes, you really get more than what you pay for. Highly recommended for those who want a quality meal without breaking the bank. ✅ Forever repeat customers!🍴

Excellent meal and excellent service, spot on time. Tried the Gunpowder Lamb tonight. Lovely meal. That’s one for the favourites list.

the delivery was late despite asking for it to be delivered at a specific time. food was cold, the paneer was where? so disappointed and led by reviews.

It was our first time dining in the Desi , we had previously only had takeaways. Wonderful ambience inside very friendly , happy staff particularly Abdul. The food was fantastic would definitely go back.

Very enjoyable meal. Good service and price. Highly recommended

All good, apart from the biryani was lacking in flavor. Good service as always.

Had to ring up and ask after thay said delivered but had no food .but sent it back out had to warm it all up in the microwave .but last week was perfect spent .75pd between 5 off us

Excellent Vindaloo and Pistachio Chicken. Lovely meal to warm us up and round off the week.

Amazing food! So tasty, best Indian around

always come for the north Indian garlic mixed grill thank you

Really nice food will ordered again from you

Had a lovely meal. Good food and an excellent service.

Excellent meal. Love the food at Desi Dining. Just the job for Sunday.

The food turned up cold considering the restaurant is only round the corner,the Kema nan had no meat what so ever,and both myself and partner have woken up with upset stomachs

Little bit late, but 100% worth the wait! Absolutely gorgeous! Knocking it out the park, Desi!

Outstanding food and outstanding service

I liked the chicken nuggets and they were super kind to me and my friends

Great food, friendly staff, good atmosphere!

The food is always high calibre and I have craved their cooking all week! I do not go to any other indian restauraunt than this place, it is always on point.

Whilst the food was ok 2 of the dishes were very watery and the food on a whole was v oily and I had to pour some oil away.

The food is just too good, well worth the price and they take note of any specific requests, just amazing place!

Save your money for a proper Indian, the food had no taste the sauce was watered down with no consistency whatsoever. This is by far the worst Indian I’ve ever tried, probably have more taste with a microwave meal from Icelands rather than a £76 meal that already had a 40% discount added. Please use a different restaurant!

Been using Desi Indian Dining for a number of years and never disappointed. One of the very best Indian restaurants in the area and my first choice for a take-away. Excellent food and love the Onion Bhajis.

Excellent food and excellent service. Always look forward to meals from Desi.

Food was fantastic, arrived piping hot and arrived early. I’ll be ordering from here next time

absolutely fantastic! You cannot beat this place for a curry, absolutely love it!
