My husband and I used this takeaway for many years but unfortunately the food really went sub standard, friends also said the same. I have recently ordered food from here and I must say its is brilliant, especially their tandoori. Well done to you all.

We come here religiously but our takeaway tonight was terrible, kebab had hardly any salad, asked for extra sauce but tasted like there was none, tandoori chicken was left on the bone, shish chicken was chewy, ended up leaving half the kebab Thats just the kebab, onion rings were stone cold and the wife's curry wasn't very warm either Really disappointed, we come here most Fridays and normally don't have a problem

I think tonight will be the last night I order from first choice which is a shame as i used to like the place and they will loose money. Don't ever order on a Friday or Saturday night.. had a well done pizza that was as dry as a bone few weeks back and was promised a discount which I never received. Anyway, had a kebab tonight and probably never had anything like it before. Doner meat was just a pile of dry shavings, shish was welllllll overdone and burnt, chicken tasted about 3 days old, no cheese and garlic in the naan like I paid for, no mint sauce and chips were still frozen in the middle. I went to pick it up to try save the 2 hour wait and cold food but hey ho .. atleast the dogs happy £14 later 😊

I asked for the double perroni pizza to be baked extra, explained that the stringy cheese makes me feel sick. Also where was the extra pepperoni. There was one large piece on each slice. No taste to it neither. I m not happy with the food at all. Listen to the customer over the phone and you go against what I requested.

Worst kebab ever! I want my money back! Salty, salty, salty! Bits that weren't salty were burnt to crisp! Salad was poor as well! Avoid at all costs!

We received a menu and thought we give a try. I had kebab chips and cheese which was nice and enjoyed it. My partner ordered onion bhaji they seemed over cooked and hard he also had a lamb phaal the curry was lovely he said but the lamb was horrible bit like leather. Delivery was quick and all the food was hot still when it arrived. We will use again it could be a one off because all the other feedback is good

For some reason I found myself wanting a phall, this place more than delivered. Food arrived hot, before the estimated delivery time & as far as it is possible I did enjoy the phall (stupidly spicy as expected) with generous amount of lamb.

Don't often leave reviews, (you have to Impress me) but the takeaway we had tonight was brilliant, easily restaurant quality and couldn't fault it. A few of us ordered a range of food from the menu and everything was nicely cooked with good portions and the bonus was not waiting long for delivery.

Kebab is very inconsistent. can be one of the nicest kebabs in derby, but its mainly one of the worst. when its the worst it has hardly no flavour, full of grease. extremely dry and chewey. inedable most times.

When will First Choice stop spamming my phone. I never agreed to marketing being sent to my phone. They used to have an opt out option which I tried to use on several occasions. They then got rid of this making it impossible to stop the messages. They have clearly never heard of GDPR. Talk about a way of annoying customers. I wouldn't use them on principle now.

The food was an absolute abomination. The chicken was lifeless and looked like depressed chicken was plucked cooked with no love...poor thing. The chips and onion rings were limp. An onion ring is majestic and should be crispy with the onion sliding out...this one turned to mush. It was sad. The burger was almost hurtful... it was black. Apparently cooked in oil and well done. A bit too well done you know. I cried a little inside. The only thing worth enjoying was 're can of Rubicon. I tried to call them and if anything they seemed confused. Would not recommend

We had a takeaway for hot wok, spondon, delivered. The chicken was so hard it was inedible, the black pepper sauce had never seen any black pepper, it was a dark coloured gravy. Tried to speak to them but they weren't interested. Awful experience and I can assure you that none of the family will be using them ever again

Well what a sad review to write. The team have been pulled apart under the closure terms, many of which have been made redundant from a career they have worked in for decades. Until the news it has always been great food and great service. Understandable that they slipped a bit given the circumstances. Thank you all for your years of service to us all. All the best for the whole team for the future. Derby will miss The Mallard!
