Idle Balti House in Bradford

Credit where credit is due, this was one of the best curries I have had in a long time. Keema Pathia, Shami kebabs and onion bhaji.

Excellent Garlic chilli meat balti. I alwYs have one when visiting Idle, and never dissapointed

Very nice ..fresh and hot and quick delivery..if any complaints it would have to be the delivery charge of 3-50 but I knew that before i ordered..probably order again but delivery charge can put alot of people of

Super fast and friendly service from the guys at Idle Balti!

If we want to order a curry this is always our choice. Good portion sizes and always delicious and arrives quickly and hot.

Tastes great every single time

Every thing fresh hot, quality food, fresh, will order again

great service very friendly highly recommended 👍

Very nice food & really fast / polite delivery service.. 100%

Perfection every time, chef kiss

Very tasty curry and good size portions. very happy customers.

Strangely this time food was cold not appetising as normal will order again hopefully 🤞🏾 up to normal standard

Best korma ever!!! And mushroom pakora’s to die for!!! And you get a massive amount. Thank you.

Outstanding, amazing food as always. You never let me down, thank you so much.

best curry in Bradford every time.

Great bhajis and poppadoms! Thank you for the great servhce

paneer was lacking taste and quality. wouldn't order those item again

Been going here for years now, food is always delicious!

Have to admit a really tasteful curry well proportioned freshly made chapatis will order again

Diabolical. Shocking customer service. I’ve come to idle balti for years and not a single complaint to be said about them. However last night me and my partner ordered from here and we both had severe vomitting at 5am. We’ve both had to take the day off work with food poisoning and awful stomach aches. I’ve never complained to idle balti and when I called them today to discuss my concerns with the food poisoning we’ve had, it was almost rehearsed explaining that we definitely don’t have food poisoning and we are wrong? I’ve been more than understanding saying I’ve always been happy with their service and as a long term customer to be completely brushed off and loose a days worth of work it’s unacceptable. I explained £33 is a lot to pay for 2 curries along with a few sides and to then loose more money by not being able to attend work is not fair and requested a refund, to which I was told I was wrong, it wasn’t food poisoning and was thanked for my call and hung up on. With their prices going up to almost restaurant quality markings, idle balti are getting too big for themselves charging £12 for a small tin of curry and clearly think they’re better than the people who have supported them for years. Will not be going back here again and I strongly avoid others to do so as well.

Where do you get charged £12 for a Keema just plain no frills and 3 chapatis unless they come in a gold plated tin foil?? Only at IDLE BALTI my friends

I had food poising our whole family have been throwing up chicken was pink in the curry really not happy

Bland !both curry’s exactly the same even though one was a balti one was bhuna 😔

The food is great but the staff preparing the food in the shop keep licking their fingers to open bags and count money then continue on with the food preparation. Not hygienic at all ( please sort this out with regular hand washes or even stop licking fingers or wear food prep gloves )

Never disappointed. Hot food on arrival and tastes delicious. Great portion sizes too.

Great food! Best curry I've had in years. My new favourite take away. Thank you.

I ordered my currry of choice Which is a keema spinach dipioza Which was perfectly cooked very tasty with soft coloured pilau rice And chappatis that was soft but cooked with a char reason I gave 5 stars delicious

we all really enjoyed our food absolutely lovely 😍

Delicious food, delivered in good time. Even the salad in the kebab was lovely and fresh, and the delivery was friendly. Will definitely be ordering from here again. Thank you.

Food is hot and delivered quickly. My go-to chicken tikka wrap is always good.

mixed meat bhuna is probably the best curry going in the local area

£3.50 delivery charge for it not even to be brought to the door i had to go collect it from the drivers car

Delivery ok but expensive for the distance, disappointed in quality of food couldn’t finish it

Lovely food and good sized portions.

Excellent food and quick delivery

Soo much oil in the currys. Leaks all out of the containers and in the bag!!! Food tastes amazing but it's so messy playing it up after the order arrives

Very tasty flavoursome curries, will defo order ao

excellent service. shami kebabs were done as asked. the makhani chicken was very nice and the bhuna meat mix was really really nice. HAPPY NEW YEAR

Yummy food delivered swiftly. Very generous portions, piping hot and fresh. Thanks!

Excellent curry and quick delivery time!

Never had a bad curry from here

Very expensive. poor delivery times and average food. much better places around

The food tasted like cat food and everything had no flavour to it

I find the curry’s fine but very expensive so use the one that’s just as nice up the road , idle balti was 4.50 more expensive 🤔. Was only a small order just a curry ,3 chappaties and sheesh kebab so 4.50 is a lot extra on a small order .i only live 2 mins down the road , used them for years but always check price now with one up road .

Raw chicken in my curry I rang to complain as I'd spent over £30 on the take away for them to send another but ask for the old one back. Which was in the bin. So they took the new one back disgusting

Great food as always. I'd still prefer a bit less oil used...as its incredibly messy whilst trying to plate up (oil leaking during delivery etc) but great food 👍

Far too hot, asked for 1 kebab with chilli 1 with mint sauce, both came with chilli. Mine went in the bin as I couldn’t get through to you.

Food absolutely outstanding well presented hot and driver was very polite.

Really nice delivery man and was very quick

Fast efficient great as always

Just as good now as it used to be 10 years ago when we first used them.

Always tastes amazing from here. Definitely one of my favourite take aways.

I got a chicken Donna in pitta wife got a amercan burger supreme both meals absolutely spot on beautiful

The Korma and curry were ok, but the Naan, Pakoras and bhajis were tasteless.

Brilliant food as always, Shami kebabs best in Bradford, best in West Yorkshire!!!!! Probably best in England.

Absolutely beautiful food!! Chicken tikka masala curry is amazing! All food was hot, fresh and really nice!

Gorgeous food as always. Best curry around.

Great food, great service, good value.

Literally the best takeaway ever. I love the food here and the service is always great.

Great food but I won’t order again at those prices. £5 more for a curry compared to any other takeaway. If they lowered their prices I would order every week.

Very good food - we order from here often and it never disappoints

Not normally one for leaving a less positive review but unfortunately some of the food was of a poor quality especially at the prices they want to throw out there. Donner kebab meat wasn’t nice at all really, bland and quality of meat wasn’t that good. I got salad with it and it was just chopped lettuce that was soggy from the sauce, no tomato, cucumber or red onion that you would normally see. We also got the chicken tower burger, again, chicken was dry and chips were over cooked. We also got the Chicken Tikka Makhani, that curry was actually not bad from what my partner said, decent curry but I’d expect that from Idle Balti. The price for this all and also the £2.99 delivery charge that is set no matter how close we are was just over £33 - not worth that at all!

Spent £50 and every single piece of the order was bland, absolutely no flavour in anything, ordered a keema bhuna and a chicken tikka masala. Both items may as-well have been warm paste of nothing. Wouldn’t bother, will never order again, shambles

It’s my first time ordering from here, the starter pack was very bland and greasy and it left my stomach feeling uneasy

Delicious food. Definitely will order again. Nice one

Chicken has grisly bits in it, they were good enough to make another but I wasn’t over enthusiastic about it.

All good items tasted the same, very greasy

Food was warm, starters was warm ups not fresh very poor quality

Delicious and hot. Highly recommend idle balti for a treat or a regular meal. Best meals I’ve had and plenty to choose from. 10/10 for everything

The mains were ok but starters were disappointing, they were oversized and lacking in freshness or flavour. It was a pity as we ordered before and was great... Will not use again.

Turned up a bit of a mess in the bag, oil all over the containers/packaging. Food was great as always and would order again.

The food here is very tasty and fresh. The quality of the chicken is great and the chips are good too

Beautiful n hot all happy ty 👍😀😋

Great food ,great price Thanks you very much

Good staff Fresh food But you have to wait it's better if you order on the phone then go

Absolutely 1st class tasty meal. Wasn’t my first order and won’t be the last. Still hot on arrival. 1/2 early but not really a problem. I personally highly recommend Idle Balti for a tasty delicious and plentiful meal. Also recommend to go large which is £1.50 but well worth it. I can’t praise this takeaway highly enough.

Excellent as usual, thanks guys 👍🏻👍🏻

Food was delivered twenty minutes after I received the notification of the driver setting off, even though we live two minutes away, so it was not hot. It was tasty though.

Food and delivery is consistently 6 stars

Excellent food, early and friendly delivery 😊

Never let's me down, food it's always spot on and delivery is quick.

Best chips and curry I’ve ordered

The food arrived in good time, however the curry was crushed in transit so it was quite messy. Part of our order was missing which we were disappointed about & also we felt the food was overall quite bland. The samosas were good! But disappointed by the lack of flavour in the onion bhajis.

Fantastic, do I need to say more !!

Used this takeaway for more than 25 years. Always excellent tasty food

Piping hot and tasty food, as always.

Curry’s are beautiful chips also everything ordered was hot and delivered early loved it will deffo order chicken tikka masala again 👍🏼

Food always great and arrives in great time. More expensive via just eat as is the delivery charge which is why we have reduced the number of times we order from here.

Delicious food and very quick delivery. It was more than 15 minutes early.

Icl when I ordered the food it was abit cold had to warm it up in the microwave so was the rice not sure what happened

Favourite curry house! Everything is always so delicious 🤤

Delivery guy was nice and pleasant,food arrived earlier than specified,food was hot and tasted delicious, have had a few orders from here kebabs and curries cheese burgers all fresh and tasted delicious , would definitely recommend…

this was the best curry ive had in years!my husband and friend are in agreement.it reminds me of how the curries used to be.spot on!!!!!

Been going here for many years and the food has always been 10/10, on this occasion I got the special mixed starter which at £9 may seem like a lot however for what you get its actually good value, great quality once again.

Chicken Byriani, Chicken Bhuna, onion Bhajis and pickle tray ordered. Arrived early which was good. Food was excellent full of flavour and cooked well i.e. Chicken still soft and not dry. We've got food from Idle Balti for some time now and it's got even better.

An item on out order was forgotten buy they credited us with no issues. Great food!

We just enjoyed a beautiful lamb balti and chicken masala. Piping hot, lean meat and really flavoursome. 10 out of 10

Sat here full up and happy!! Great food as always

Very nice food …nice and fresh ..the only complaint we have is was missing chapatis and 3.50 for delivery is quite expensive when you spend quite a bit on a order but food very nice

Tasty as alway, never had a bad meal from these chaps 👍👍
