Went to Indian Ocean restaurant last night with my family, I am in my daughter's support bubble, had a wonderful meal, great service, looked after by Jamal who couldn't do enough to make it a brilliant experience, gorgeous food, brilliant staff and so reasonably priced, social distancing was very well done, everyone felt safe,5 star evening.

Indian ocean is the only place where we go out to eat indian.The curries are the best especially the chicken madras and chicken chilli tikka masala.It was my birthday today and loved my complimentary strawberry daiquiri from my fellow liverpool fan.I have to say it was the best strawberry daiquiri i have ever had....

First meal out after lockdown and it was worth the wait. Visited 6.30pm on a Saturday and have to say the service was excellent, all staff well trained on the current guidelines and polite as always at Indian Ocean. Fantastic food - £14.99 pp for 5 courses. Well presented and very tasty. Been here many times and it always hits the spot. Give It a go if you haven’t been before.

We are regular visitors here never been disappointed. Large size restaurant well staffed good size free carpark at the side. We usually have the set menu slightly more expensive at the weekend but still worth it. Our service a little slower than usual even though not that busy. We had to ask a couple of times for our next item of our set menu. Hopefully this is only a one off maybe our waiter a bit distracted.We will still call here as we love the food chicken Tikka thawa a personal favorite

Can’t believe the recent mediocre reviews of the Indian Ocean, we have been going for over 5 years and it is consistently excellent. Went for valentines meal which was probably the best meal we have ever had. They have introduced a few new dishes on the menu, the wife decided to try one, sizzling fish platter, it was amazing,I stuck with my usual tandoori mixed sizzling platter which was excellent as it always is. Staff here are brilliant and very attentive , Jamal served us and was excellent, shah friendly as he always is, thanks again for a fantastic meal, we are looking forward to our next visit already.

We were staying quite remotely so had little choice and opted for here.Good friendly service. Completely empty at 2130 hrs on a Tuesday nightBut they had had an indian wedding we are toldMixed starters were good. My wife’s duck dish just ok and my Chicken Methi not as good as Walsall recent visit. Felt like they had put left over chicken tikka pieces in it.Slightly surprised re prices, higher than average for this part of the world I thought.

My colleague and I are working up in Oldham, and we fancied a curry, so went on the trusted TripAdvisor, and found the Indian Ocean restaurant.This is where TripAdvisor is so good, the reviews were good, so we booked a table.We arrived at seven, we met by a friendly member of staff who set us down, he took our order within five minutes and the starters arrived within five minutes, we ordered our main meal and a few drinks and within 5 to 10 minutes everything was in front of us.The food was absolutely delicious, the fact that they were Asian families in the restaurant says a lot about the food. After about an hour we ordered the bill, which was extremely reasonable.I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough, if you are in Oldham and I’m looking for somewhere to have a meal please go here it’s brilliant!

Staff friendly &" helpful food cooked well with good portion sizes. Started with a favorite chicken chaat puri, followed by thawa chicken Tikka both delicious. With a side order egg fried rice for me then ice cream & coffee to follow rounded of with a Bailey's. Not sure if this is standard as we were quite a large group.

We had a party of 8, the food was excellent and whilst the prices are already reasonable the bill was still lower than expected as we ordered off menu and they put it through on the weekly special deal, we hadn't realised we qualified for it, it was a nice surprise. They don't ask for tips when you pay as some restaurants do but they are well worth a tip!

I went for a meal in the Indian Ocean and for a change I chose the Thawa Chicken, this is strips of chicken, pepper, onions, garlic etc, served on a sizzling hot plate, with rice or Nan bread, it was absolutely delicious. It is rated with one chilli, which means it isn’t very hot, however you can taste all the spices and the food, it seems to get a little hotter as you eat it. The surroundings are very nice and the staff clean and accommodating. We chose the ‘’special” deal, this is popadom & side dish’s, a starter, any main course from the menu, ice cream & coffee. £13:95 (King prawns are extra) they also do a very nice Nan bread, it’s quite thin, and not as stodgy as it often the case. They have a full bar but, allow you to take your own wine. The Indian Ocean is a lovely restaurant, it is very clean and has wonderful food, I would recommend a visit.

Went as a party of 20 hence had the party menu at £13.95. Excelent food but not the best value for money at £13.95 per head. It included a nan bread and chips to share by 4 people. I would have much preferred the option of dhall or another nan bread instead of the chips. Very nice interior, but the staff a bit slow to serve the drinks on arrival. Would still go back.

I work in Oldham and often spend a number of nights away from home. As a result I have visited many restaurants and pubs in the area over a number of months and I consistently return here, often multiple times a week.The reason? It is quite simply the best Indian restaurant in the area that I have come across and possibly one of the best that I have ever been to.The restaurant is quite large with a number of booths as well as a private room and tables. It is well decorated and exceptionally clean and well cared for.Service is exceptionally friendly and professional, I am welcomed like a local now and I have found no reason to fault it, even turning up 5 mins before they finished serving.The food is superb and if you take advantage of their fixed price menu it is exceptionally good value. The range is extensive and the quality without question. Some of the best Indian food that I have tasted.What is there to fault? The only thing I could mention is that there is no dedicated parking and you have to park in the car park of the warehouse next door. When the food is of the quality that it is that really is no hardship!

Been to this place on a lot of occasions and it is a good place with good food. However, after the main course the service standards drop off dramatically. Long wait for dessert and followed by a further long wait for coffee and that put a spoiler on the night.

My girlfriend and I have been coming here for well over a decade. One of the first Indian restaurants in the Oldham area to offer a 'set price' menu.Always great value for money and above all a range of delicious dishes to choose from. Being a vegetarian presents no problem as they are always more than happy to make a dish to suit you.I guess their success has come at a price as it's now hugely popular and can get extremely busy and noisy towards the start of the weekend. My advice would be to come mid-week when it's quieter, you won't be disappointed.

Food was very good tonight shame the waiters although very good at serving they are not so good at understanding requests.very reasonable prices and there is a deal for £12.95 where you get a popperdom and accompanying sauces and a starter of your choice and meal of your choice ice cream and a coffee toilets are adequate. Restaurants does have disabled ramps at the entrance. Very near parking facilities where there is a small car park. They said they had No wifi but later said they had but it was not working .They got a drink wrong twice and at the end over charged for an extra meal on the bill so always check your bill..if I was judging on the food only would be 5 stars tonight.. the food can vary a bit as it depends on who's cooking that night..as I have been many times it's been mostly good but still better than most places I've been.. but they are always very good if something is not right to put it right when requested too.

On entry a young waiter came straight to us to show us to our table he was so polite and courteous. We all had starters of pompadoms and dips which was so fresh and crisp, we all had different mains and I had Chicken Korma with rice and chips (share) , It was really delicous and creamy, the rice was so light and fluffy. All the staff were very attentive and eager to please you, the restaurant was very clean and beautifully decorated. On leaving you are offered a shot of Baileys and after dinner mints.

A group of us attended here, when your group is large, you get to order of a pre-defined menu for £12.93, you get poppadoms and onions and chutney, then you can order a starter, then a main course from the actual menu, and you get pilau and naan with that choice, the naan is shared between 4 people, can't remember if you get the choice of a pudding, as we had a birthday cake that we took. It has a bar but you can also take your own. The food was really nice, and extremely tasty, the staff were attentive and pleasant. We had an area to ourselves where we didn't disturb others, which I think is considerate to the other diners.People who wanted other items could order them, they just paid the extra at the end.

Tuesday match after a Saturday victory in Barnet.Not expecting much from the footy (5-4 victory was a welcome end to the evening) & food whilst well cooked, flavoured & served promptly, was not exactly to my taste.Always a bit unfair to criticise on the basis of an expectation of meal spiciness which was misfounded - a little too tame (stuffed cheese peppers) for my taste buds - but there you have it. Food was good enough to go back again but would turn up the heat - for medium read mild - next time.

I visited Indian Ocean midweek after work with colleagues and had no problem getting a table. We took advantage of the set menu - starter, main, dessert, coffee as recommended by a colleague who has visited the restaurant several times already.The food was delivered to our table within minutes of ordering and wasnt hot in temperature. The food tasted yummy and the portions are a decent size.Within minutes of me finishing my main course I immediately had diahroea 3 times. I chose to go into the disabled toilet for some privacy only to have the door opened on me by one of the waiters.He did apologise however it was a humiliating experience that I wouldnt want to repeat.Do not park in the Aldi car park next door as you will get a parking ticket if you stay more than 2 hours.

Absolutely horrendous! We were taken to our table but once we had sat down the waiters seemed to be doing nothing & uninterested in serving us. We had to call the waiter over to our table to take our drinks which took another five minutes to arrive, after that we had a look through the menu & decided what we were going to eat; after we knew what we were ordering we had to wait ten minutes and no one was coming to the table so we had to call a waiter over to come take our order. After the waiter had taken we were supposed to be given popadoms however we had to wait 10 minutes before it actually arrived. After eating popadoms we had to wait for our starters for 20 minutes & when we asked the waiter were was our starters he said its on his way but it took much more longer. They didn't bother clearing our table for the starters or main course, waiters walked by and seen the table & just didn't bother with it. We tried putting in a complaint but the manager was not accepting it. We were denied alcoholic beverages due to our race, overall I will never recommend this place to go eat!!! Absolutely ridiculous!

We have been going to Indian ocean frequently for over a year now with the odd visit precious to this. Tonight I went with a friend as a belated 30th celebrations. I feel like I'm being disloyal writing this but I feel really let down. The mango chutney was watered down and had remains of left of poppadoms in it before we even started, my starter was raw lamb chops which was a huge disappointment as the lamb here is normally beautiful and my friends chicken was pure fat and gristle. When the main arrived I was iffy abut eating it. I cut into the chicken and it was discoloured black and red. Staff not really as friendly as normal.. a little of new faces and a lot of huffing and puffing around us. Not planning on returning in the future which is a shame because it is genuinely a lovely restuarant depending on which waiter you get and if you don't go at peak times.

We have been here many, many times with both family and friends. Food is superb and great value for money with the set menu. You can take your own wine, which means it's a really cheap night out! Particular favourite curries from the menu are: Saagwala, Thawa and the Akbari Cham Cham which has a delicious smokey taste! Never had a bad meal. Can't recommend enough!

Busy restaurant. Booked a table for 6 adults last Saturday. Table was ready on time and we were offered drinks straight away. You can take your own wine but have to buy beer or spirits. Meal took a while but they were very busy and when it arrived it was very tasty and everyone enjoyed the evening. Staff were helpful as one of our friends eats gluten free and they offered advice. The meal and drinks were very reasonable.

We have dined at this restaurant on numerous occasions and never had a bad meal or poor service. Admittedly we tend to go in the early evenings when it isn't overly busy. The choice of meals is extensive and the quality of the service exemplary. There is a lot of competition in the area but the others would have to exceptional to beat the Indian Ocean.

On arrival the friendly staff took us where the rest of the party were seated. Soon the wine was flowing and the poppadoms arrived , lovely and fresh. Starter soon arrived followed by the most delicious main meal of tandoori mix special. Definitely recommend Indian ocean and soon be visiting again.

First time at this restaurant and the last.The meat dishes that we ordered for starters were cool (not in a good way) just room temprature. the tikka lamb chops had to be sent back, so cold).The curries we ordered (3 different ones) were all described as medium hot but all three had no heat in them at all (and I can't take hot ones so these were really lacking heat). When this was mentioned the anwser given was that medium has no (spicy) heat ?? odd , all the other indian restaurants must be doing it wrong.Ordering drinks, there are no prices for glasses of wine on the menu.

Been going to the Indian ocean for over fifteen years, its gets better and better, the food has always been good especially the jalfrazie and the lamb sagwali, we always think of the Indian ocean when we want a curry, nice atmosphere good décor clean toilets, fast service and friendly staff. oh and very reasonably priced, can't beat it.

When we fancy an Indian meal we usually think of the Indian Ocean first. It offers a great bargain on a five course meal deal but the main menu is very competitively priced. The quality of food throughout is excellent everyone we go. You can take your own wine but to be honest it's not really worth it as the restaurant a very nice house wine for a really low cost. We have also had a takeaway delivered from the Indian Ocean and the food quality was equally as good as the restaurant food. Highly recommended

Overall an excellent dining experience and looking forward to going back soon!I really can't believe the recent negative reviews! The food certainly has not gone down hill it is very high quality as are the staff who we have got to know over the years! Can't fault it! Thank you!

Shame this place has gone downhill was really good one time, the lighting also makes it hard to see the menu it could do with brightening the place up a little more, service could improve much more food needs a little more taste as some dishes taste alike, not in a rush to come back
