First time ordering from Indian Cottage. Ordered online, mim spend £15 +£3 delivery. ( had order extra things i didn't want just to make the price to £15 min ) Food arrived 45 later ( looking forward to trying) Disappointed all items ordered it were barley warm. and under 10mins away from restaurant

I Ordered a takeaway from Indian Cottage, Burslem, looked at the website and the dish on their web site Chicken Tikka Masala looked really appetising , only to find when the delivery arrived nothing like the photo and all it consisted of was a red sauce, no veg, no garnish and just a couple of lumps of chicken the frozen chicken from Pak foods in a bag. It tasted awful to say the least, we left it outside for the fox but even the fox did not want it. I have emailed Indian Cottage with my complaint, but I have had no reply, but I am not surprised!! I expected this so I will contact my credit card company and see what they can do?

Some call it fine dining ( we call it small portions). It’s not for us. We had to go elsewhere for a feed afterwards. Nice food but tiny portions. I did make a issue, yet the offer of a Baileys. Eeer. Not. Sorry won’t be visiting again

We popped in on a last minute decision to grab some food. We hadn't booked but luckily they were able to seat us. They told us we could only have the table for a certain amount of time, but wasn't an issue at all as the service was so swift. The staff were very attentive and excellent. The portions were huge and the price really reasonable. We loved all our dishes and, if we're in the area again, we will definitely return!

Food is always good. Portion sizes were good. We had chicken tikka balti, lamb dupiaza, rice, chicken chaat starters, naan bread and poppadoms with the chutneys. Staff are always good, and make the effort to go above and beyond. Chicken chat has shrunk, and so has the portion of rice. Overall great tasting food and good value.

Booked a meal here for 16 of us for a special occasion. As always the staff are very efficient and happy to help, the restaurant was very busy on a Saturday evening, the service was excellent as always. We all had different starters and mains and they all arrived at the same time which was great. Everyone had a delicious meal, 18 of us had visited a couple of months previously and it was just as good. We have been going to the Indian Cottage restaurant for many years and the food is always very good, even the takeaways are lovely too. We would recommend this restaurant and hope to return soon.

Really good service. We were well looked after. My son didn’t like his butter chicken - he said it was too sweet. But my husband loved his prawn saag; I enjoyed my chicken tikka madras. However, I didn’t LOVE it. If someone booked it for a meal I’d go - but it’s not somewhere I would re-book.

I recently tried this Indian takeaway, and I was really impressed. The food was full of flavor and tasted just like something you'd get at a top-notch restaurant. The butter chicken was creamy and perfectly spiced, and the lamb rogan josh was tender and packed with flavor. Even the sides were great—the samosas were crispy, and the garlic naan was soft and delicious. Everything arrived hot and fresh, which made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be ordering from here again soon!

Excellent South Indian cuisine in Stoke. You don’t come here for the ambience or decor, but the grub is good. There is a broad selection of classic starters including poppadoms, samosas and bhajis for those who don’t wish to stray from a British Indian menu. However, for those that want a South Indian experience, there are plenty of delicacies and street food on offer. They serve: dosas, sambal, manchurian, kothu parathas, chicken 65 (delightful) and more… The South Indian mains I recommend are the Kerala Chicken Curry and Malabar Fish Curry. Overall, a wonderful evening trying a wide choice of curries. Will be back to try the extensive biryani list and more chicken 65.

I have been to alessi at least 20 times over the last couple of years and have always enjoyed the food and service with no complaints. Unfortunately the same could not be said for the last recent visit on Saturday 2 November. This was a family visit for my mums birthday. I had booked via WhatsApp and all been agreed. However when entering, it became clear that they had messed the bookings up and we were not showing on the table plans. I was told that we would have to wait 20-30 minutes whilst they put a couple of tables together. I would not have minded this too much, however was given no apology, and was made to feel like their mistake was mine. When taken to our table, it was clearly just put together, right by the front door and bar and not great. At the end of the night I approached front of house to give them my views, I was not happy with the service tonight. At this point I received an apology, shame it took so long to get one. Overall, the experience was not good, and given the amount of money that was spent, and the poor service received, some free poppadoms just didn’t cut it.
