Holy Cow in Wandsworth

Ordered £160 take away. Received order worth £9. Phoned to resolve and received no help at help. Told too busy to help and hung up on us!! Used them many times in past successfully but awful tonight. Will pursue for refund.

I celebrated my lockdown birthday and mothers day by ordering my favourite Indian Takeaway. I mentioned it was my birthday on placing my order and I was given several additional items to my order which was a lovely surprise. Every time I order I am never disappointed by the food when it arrives. They have such a wide range of dishes and are always ready to assist with any special dietary requirements. l live in Crystal Palace and unfortunately they do not deliver to postal area so can only buy when I am seeing Mum or pre lockdown at my friends house. I would like to say a big thank you to the Management at Holy Cow for my birthday treats.

Didn't order via Deliveroo. The driver was very good at finding our place. The food arrived fast and is great. Thank you Holy Cow Balham team! Again Thank you to the driver for the quick delivery.

La primera vez que pedimos a Holy Cow y no me puedo quejar de nada. Buena comida con pollo y cordero de primera calidad en una variedad de platos diferentes. El pedido llegó en 30 minutos y se había empaquetado cuidadosamente en una caja de ahorro de calor para garantizar que aún estuviera caliente y fresco cuando se sirvió. Sin duda volveremos por más y lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

Encontramos un trozo de vidrio nadando en nuestro curry - vea la foto. Mi pareja se lo tenía en la boca y afortunadamente lo escupió. No soporta pensar en lo que podría haber pasado si se lo hubiera tragado. . .

We were so disappointed with our takeaway from Holy Cow. The chicken kebab starter was made from minced chicken with soooo much garlic, not good. The Dahl was pretty much soup, but crunchy bits of garlic in, not good. Lastly the chickpea side was just flavourless and thrown together, not properly cooked down - again not good! They don’t re-use their cartons either, more landfill. :(

A superb local take-away serving authentic Indian food, good portions and well priced always a very quick delivery service

One of the best Indians in London. Ignore the fake reviews, they are stooges for other curry houses ! Holy Cow is honestly the best Indian in town. Delicious.

Ordered a delivery and shortly afterwards I received a call from a lady who demanded that I provide my house number for the driver. Our address does not have a house number, which I explained clearly, with directions. We live on a busy residential street and the post code brings you to the door. She proceeded to demand that I provide the house number because I had wasted 10 minutes of her time (the phone call lasted 3 minutes), and that the driver would be unable to find our address so we would have to go without food. Bearing in mind that we had already paid for £30+ for food, I was in shock. This was not just disappointing but completely inexcusable behaviour, no idea how somebody as rude and inarticulate has a job anywhere near a phone. I used to love this place but I certainly won't be returning. The food is overpriced and the portions are embarrassing.

Had the tandoori mix grill which was tasty; unfortunately the chicken Bhuna was totally tasteless. Avoid

We thought the food tasted great just felt that it was very expensive for what we got. We have tried other local places and felt like we got a lot better value for money elsewhere. Shame because we were looking forward to trying this and felt a bit disappointed.

Have ordered a lamb biriyani and a lamb bhuna from Holy Cow on Balham High Road. Both were dire. It is unbelievable that a restaurant would send out such poor quality food. Avoid. Chris Corrigan, Balham

Cannot fault this superb Indian take away, authentic food perfectly spiced and generous portions with great breads as well

Ordered from here this evening. Food turned up cold and we found large pieces of plastic in the curry. When we phoned up to complain they weren't surprised and laughed. If I could give 0 stars, I would. Never again.

Holy Cow always delivers the goods. It is hands down the best indian take out in London (and i have tried a fare few). Always fresh and tasty. and love the big crunchy poppadum and mango chutney that come complimentary. we have this a little to often than our wallets would like as other reviewers have stated it is a little more expensive than the usual. It's so good it's worth it though and they do free delivery so really if you factor in deliveroo charges if you were to go somewhere else its not too bad. 100% reliable tasty indian. however note delivery time is on average 50 minutes so be sure to get orders in well before you are actually hungry especially fri/sat nights.

Delivery came on time and was really excited. i liked the idea that the food is sealed but not sure its best for the taste. i had the parbat lamb which was tasteless and murg magalore just dont know how to describe it. Wont try this place again

Sentarse en un viernes por la noche con una sensación de frío y lo siento por mí. ¿Qué mejor manera de sentir mejor que una sabrosa comida para llevar siempre fiable desde Santo Vaca en Balham? Las porciones son generosas y la comida es fresca y sabrosa. Bien picante cebolla pakora, tierna y muy bien cocinado murgh kebab (pollo tikka) y naan esponjosas. No es el más barato, pero sin duda vale la pena

Me encanta la comida de la vaca sagrada, mi compañero no es tan entusiasta como es un poco cara de Indain llevar.

Frío y llevar indio había llegado aquí por una recomendación y que el número de restaurantes que tienen dentro de Londres. Tengo que decir que me decepcionó que hacía frío cuando llegó a nuestra casa aunque vivimos una media milla de la carretera. No vale la pena el precio.

I ordered take-away based on a few reviews and it was absolutely delicious. The dishes I ordered were well-balanced in terms of spices, the sauces rich and ingredients tasted fresh. I will definitely order from them again!

Have had indian takeaways from here a number of times and always on time and great, fresh food. Very reliable and good.

Sure bet take away. The food is just great, delivery is usually on time. Love the extra sauces and the biryanis ..

He estado pidiendo desde holycow durante bastante tiempo balham ahora y nunca me han decepcionado. La comida huele increíble y sabe demasiado bien. Murg Madurai (con un chile verde) es la mejor. A veces, tendrá que esperar una hora o así, pero que vale la...

Las mejores marcas para esta comida para llevar - realmente fresco y aún caliente cuando llegue. Un poco caro (unos 35 libras para dos), pero probablemente vale la pena.

Tried Holy Cow's delivery service for the first time recently to check it out. The food arrived at our home quickly enough, but the popadums were tainted with the flavour of stale oil, the bhajees were soggy; and the main dishes came encased in various forms of tasteless slop. We found it impossible to eat more than a small amount before we gave up. Absolutely horrible stuff. We shall revert to the safe hands of the excellent Cumin Club on Hambalt Road - their food has a zing which was completely missing from Holy Cow's offering.

Great curries - prepared with quality ingredients. Quick delivery, food is always warm. Great value for money and one of the best in SW London.

Absolutely one of the best Indians in London. Non greasy, very good quality food. Love just about everything on the menu, especially the vegetable dishes :-)

I think this is Indian food for a very Western audience. It is very fatty, and though nice enough I would not say it is mind blowing, but it is what it is.

Very good indian, I love it, I often take away and 've been never disappointed but it is expensive compared to other take aways.

Tasty, takeaway Indian. Could have been a little spicier but we will know for next time. Better than some other ones we have tried locally. We'll definitely order again from here.

All cooked freshly to order, a good selection including vegetarian dishes. Delivered hot and large portions and very good value

Have ordered take away from Holy Cow several times, generally the food is tasty and arrives within 1 hour of placing the order. Some dishes are a bit average but we have learnt which ones are a 10/10. It is by far the best Indian takeaway in the area.

Brilliant food, amazing quality! The starters are amazing and so are the mains. Always piping hot and never greasy at all, and if you want to change the order slightly they always adhere to your needs. I never order from anywhere else. Best Indian I've had in London by far, and I have lived in India :)

I'm a little surprised by the two bad reviews for this takeaway because the meal I just had was absolutely delicious. At £26 for two people, it certainly wasn't cheap, but that's Balham for you. Best Indian takeaway I've had in London.

I hate writing bad reviews but what we got last night was quite awful mush, not all of it, but most of it leaving us with the feeling 'why did we just eat that stuff' and 'how I wish I owned a stomach pump' - I love curry but not this!And then there was the wait, one hour so we collected it ourselves!

I can say this is probably the worst ever Indian Takeaway I have had. The Chef clearly has never tasted good Asian food - there was the absolutely minimum in terms of flavour in the chicken curry, the aloo palak and veg curries that I got.They seemed to have forgotten about the lovely complexity of flavours and spice you get with Asian food - decent quality chicken, but bland taste to the sauce.The Aloo Palak (which actually means potato spinach) had no spinach in it - very large pieces of potato and in stead of spinach somebody hard the smart idea to use Kale instead....including the very chewy thick stems that it comes with. Again no decent selection of spices - more like boiled potatoes and kale - what a waste of money.
