Indian Rose Restaurant & Takeaway in Plymouth

Our regular indian was closed so trying for 1st time...ordered 3 meals & every single person has said the same...looks nice but very bland with no flavour at all, it tastes nothing like indian and no spice to the spicy dish at all !! Wont redorder.

They had the wrong address, but the food was hot and delicious 😋

Thanks again Team for another superbly tasty meal everything arrived 6min early in total.

Fast Delivery, smaller than expected portions filled with just lots of onions, the chicken wings were tasty , but only 3 and a few cubes of lamb also filled with onions seemed not good value for money . The Sag main was disappointing, very bland and just tasted like watery spinach - chunks of tomato used as filler , but plenty prawns added to the dish . The standout was the wings and the naan was tasty but unlikely to reorder the same dishes from here again.

Everything was superb and arrived 25min early in total from the time window given, I've ordered many times now and the boss who I spoke to on the phone back along and his staff are always friendly and helpful I highly recommend Indian Rose.

everything tasted like cheese and soap, not a lot of variation within flavours of different dishes. could finish more than a bite of each. i got the vegetable balti, garlic rice, garlic nan and onion bites. very disappointed

I've been wanting to go to this award winning restaurant for ages & it didn't disappoint. Situated on Mutley Plain, although fairly small, there are plenty of tables and you don't feel cramped together. It is a very "Instagram-able" place with pink neon lighting & pink flower covered walls. Only downside to the lighting is that all the food & yourselves look very pink/ purply. I took a few photos of the food with a flash so the dishes look real! We booked a table for 15 and the staff were very efficient at taking our orders and gave friendly service. There is a very extensive menu, with lots of new, un-commonly seen dishes to try. Many varieties of pilau rice & naan breads. The Madu hot honey naan was crispy & delicious. Every one of our party really enjoyed their food and will be returning. We went early on a mid-week evening so the staff could cope with our large order etc. However, to help them it would be preferable if you could order in advance when booking. They also offer take-away.

Food was lovely, shame the Chicken Tikka Masala was all over the bag!

Bhajis too salty to eat, my ‘dry’ dish of off the bone tandoori chicken drowning in oil, and lots of bones and bone parts. Keema rice was just basmati rice, with a few bits of lamb tikka, not mince.

My experience was a mixed one. While the host and waitresses were very nice, I feel like this papered over pretty average food. Our food took over 40 minutes to arrive to our table, and it when it did all of our rices were clumped together, as if they had been put in the microwave. The curry itself was okay but I think the wait for food and price of the meal slightly hindered the taste. There was no compensation or freebies for the wait for food, however I believe they gave freebies to customers who ordered food via online, which I found interesting. Extra charges for the dips that came with the food is something I haven't encountered before either. While the restaurant was fairly busy when we ordered our food, anything complementary would have been nice to cover for the wait. I would choose Himalayan Spice over this place for quality of food.

Thanks again M for another awesome meal your team did a superb job everything arrived 40min early in total from the time window given and was very tasty. Thanks again to you and your Team, until next time.

Ordered for 2020 came at 2105 food was not hot just warm

superb food as usual, arrived 18min early. Thanks again Team for another tasty meal.

Another great meal, the best Indian food in Plymouth can't fault it. Thanks again Peter

Staff and food was spot on, would definitely come back next time I'm down 👍🏻

It was so nice to be there And I saw curry awards 2024 they definitely deserve to win .

Very good service and delicious food I love Indian food. They have won a national best restaurant award 2023 and now 2024 definitely the best looking and amazing delicious food .

It was really delightful to book a date night it was nice and people was really delightful 1000 stars

Despite being busy there Team got our food to us which was superb, 5min early. Thanks again Team for another tasty meal.

I got the wrong drink and the wrong naan and the butter chicken wasn’t mixed or had been sat so long it had separated

Superb food as usual thank you again M and your Team for all your hard work and another tasty meal.

Our favourite Indian takeaway 😊 Best one in plymouth

Delicious food, amazing service and excellent decor - a special thanks to deepa and deepa. We will be visiting again next week! We love you Jas and coco xxxxxx

Everything was superb and great value for what you get which all arrived 10min early from the total time window given. Thank you M and your Team for all your hard work for another very tasty meal.

Popped in for a quick dinner early on a Friday evening. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the decor is nice. There is a lot of choice on the menu, including plenty of vegetarian options. I couldn’t decide what I wanted so had 2 side dishes. The food was nice, nothing mind blowing but enjoyable. Prices were comparable to other similar restaurants. Will probably return at some point.

My favourite Indian restaurant and takeaway, always so good and lovely staff

Missing onion bajis which my daughter stayed up late waiting for as order was 35 mins late drinks were warm as were in with hot food not separate

This was the BEST Indian Takeaway that we've ever had! Food was boiling hot when it arrived and the dishes were absolutely delicious. Thank you!

15min early, superbly tasty plus delivery driver confirmed our order as just-eat keep removing StoneHouse from our address also our builder had covered up the doorbell when he left tonight, so well-done and thank you Team for dealing with the issue.

I was disappointed after seeing the good views I thought I would try this place. It was 30minutes late and had to phone twice to try and find where my order was to get told it was on its way. The onion bhaji was cold, the other food was just hot. I didn't receive the correct items as well. On the good side the curry was nice, just wished it had been on time.

Staff do not recieve tips!! And the job is highly underpaid. I'm owed tips! I want my tips. The boss even blocked me for asking for my tips. I still.have the evidence

Great choice on the menu and delivered on time nice and hot. No complaints at all

Everything arrived 10min early and was very tasty and all order notes were follow. Thanks again Team for your hard work, service and superb meal.

Great food. The atmosphere Is a bit weird because the lighting makes everything look weird and the decorations are terrible but other than that everything was great.

Can't fault the food but terrible customer services. Owner was very unfair. I was sick so unable to eat the food until too days later. I ordered on the 26th Aug and realised today (28th Aug) that they didn't deliver my Peshwari nan. At first the guy on the phone said "I can't verify the booking as it was via JustEat" then I told him it was on their website. He told me to wait whilst he serves another customer. Then all of a sudden "I can't verify it on our website as it was 2 days ago" even though I could easily give him the order number. All I wanted was a Peshwari nan, I didn't ask for a whole new meal. He then tried to fob me off and said next time order through Justeat and put it in the request box- I said to him if he can't verify now and it's been 2 days, why would they verify it if I next order in 3 months time. Makes no sense. Was trying to fob me off. Didn't want to be helpful and didn't want to compensate me a simple nan bread. Even though the food is nice, customer service will keep me going at my original place which I recommend for others in Plymouth called Cinnamon Garden Express who were closed and hence why I had to order from here. Also please note the amount of fat they put in their food...

Had an early dinner, as here on business, but felt very welcome and really enjoyed the food. So friendly, I ordered from the special menu and loved my dinner and side dishes. A treat and would come back and recommend it. Close walk to my accommodation. Ideal. Thank you Rose staff for your hospitality.

driver left food at the door and didn't knock I only knew the food was there when I rang the restaurant and was told by the manager it was MY own fault the food was cold

Well this is nothing on Birmingham currys could not wait to leave a review over PRICED. Menu said thay serve a glass of wine but said no only bottle. Lamb starter was like extra gum. Chips on menu but give u fries. And no vinger had to go to counter to pay no one offered table service DONT USE THESE PPL also was dog in there

AMAZING SERVICE I LOVED IT HERE

tasty food, 5min early Great, However I was not impressed with both of my saag-bhaji's arriving as side-orders when one of them was meant to be a main. so I can't give a 5*quality this time. I'll take business elsewhere if this happens again. sorry M

Thanks again Team everything was 21min early and was superbly tasty and nice and hot. Thanks again until next time.

Great food, great atmosphere. Owner was lovely and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Everything was superbly tasty and was 32min early in total. Plus all delivery instructions were follow, Thanks again Team for all your hard work until next time.

Food superb arrived 23min early, not impressed with delivery driver he didn't ring the doorbell and just stood there waiting we live in a big house if the doorbell is not rang, there's a high chance we will not know your there. don't let happen again

Such lovely staff! We always order our Indian food from here, big love!

I have just called the resultant to inform them that their tandoori mixed grilled has given my partner food poisoning. There response was to laugh and say we will sort you out a discount in the future. I am disappointed in the lack of seriousness that they took in causing this can the complete lack of care or response to something so serious. Would not recommend or order from here ever again.

Fantastic food and amazing service especially from ciaran the bar man looked after us so well nothing was to much trouble a great asset to the company

The food was lovely service was even better they young man in the white shirt really looked after us 5 stars all the way from me

Superb food and service we had more people over tonight and even with the small increase of our normal order everything still arrived on time. Well-done Team thanks again until next time.

Everything was superb and very tasty which all arrived 18min early despite just eat deleting the number off my address due to new updates however your driver rang the phone and was able to sort the issue by confirming our door number. well-done Team.

Another good experience... Early delivery and great food

Ordered through just eat originally, had abit of a misunderstanding on the system in regards to my order. However when contacting the store directly, the owner was very polite and apologetic and went above and beyond. He went out of his way to stay in the shop late to cook my food, adding extra freebies and offered a meal on him next time for the mix up. You could tell how much he values his customers because he didn’t have to do that. 100% recommend. Upon arrival the food was also very nice.

Literally rang the shop at 20 past 11 asked them where my food was they turnt around and said that the delivery driver is on there way still haven’t received my food absolutely shocking

Everything was superbly tasty and 30min early, Thanks again Team for all your hard work and the free extra dish very much appreciated. Until next time thanks again always a pleasure.

I couldnt tell as the meal never turned up, nobody is answering the takeaway phone.

Thanks again Team for another superb meal everything arrived 28min early, The (Indian Rose Special Biryani) is one of my favourite's and I would recommend it as it's full of flavour, It also has plenty of meat and it is of good portion size and value for what you get.

Thanks again Team for a very tasty meal everything was superb and arrived 32min early in total from the time window given. Always a pleasure until next time, Thanks again Team.

Thanks again Team for another superb meal, Service and the (free bottle of coke), everything arrived 31min early from the total time window given

Delivery by the restaurant owner Mohammed, which was nice as he took the time to introduce himself. Food was lovely, can't fault a thing.

Excellent flavourful food . Thankyou

Best Indian restaurant we have been to so far. By far the best butter chicken we haver had. Very lovely staff, we will definitely come back.

Thanks again Team for another superb meal, Despite a delay message on just eat everything arrived 30min early form the total time window given, Thanks again until next time.

Usually love this Indian, and always recommend it to friends. But the curry I just had was really tasteless. Really disappointed after spending 40 + pounds.

food is on poiiiiint every time 👏

Brilliant food and the service was amazing. Due to being low on delivery drivers, the owner himself drove our order to us and it was piping hot on delivery. There were a couple of extras thrown in as well. The food was delicious and the Gulab jamun was the best I have ever tasted!

I ordered a takeaway one evening during half term and it was the best Indian takeaway I’ve ever had. The app told us it would be late (twice!) but the owner himself came to deliver the order and ensured it was on time and piping hot at delivery. Service was great and the food was fantastic, especially the gulab jamun!

If you haven't tried it yet...you have missed out. In all our years eating indian cuisine, this is by far the best. If there were 10 stars it still would be 11. Award winning delicacy time and time again....we keep coming back.

Thanks Team for another superb meal everything arrived 22min early from the total time window given. Until next time thanks again.

Very spicy and good tasting food! Enjoyed the meal.

Thanks again Team for another superb meal and all your hard work everything arrived 5min early from the total time window given. also I'd like to thank the manager from the other evening by phone order that was a very special honour. Thanks again.

A solo visit on an early Monday evening so not exactly throbbing with people, however I recieved a warm welcome. The decor is smart, modern and well designed without being flashy and was well laid out and pristine. What sets this apart is a collection of 'specials' and 'signatures dishes that were a nice addition and creative enough to tempt you away from your normal order. The food was absolutely delicious and appeared to be cooked with care, I enjoyed every mouthful! I also spoke to the Boss who was a great chap who impressed me with his pride and passion in what he is doing. I really recommend a visit to all curry lovers and please try one of their specials!

Thanks again Team for another superbly tasty meal and the (free bottle of coke), Everything arrived 25min early from the time window given. It was also nice to have a call from the manager reminding me of something I had missed, you have my thanks. When I'm able to walk and back on my feet following from an accident I had last year I would also like to dine-in at your restaurant some time.

Delivery time was prompt. Good was near on awful. The butter chicken curry was basically chicken in a paste with cream shoved on top. The saag paneer was bland and the worst one I've over had. Just overall disappointment even the poppadoms were stale. No one ate it and it ended up in the bin. Absolutely gutted that was our Friday treat and I'd of rather had a maccies. Massive thumbs down.

Recieved a delivery last night and as always hot and absolutely delicious cant rate it enough

Thanks again Team for all your hard work and another superb meal, everything arrived 30min early from the time window given

Best bhajis ever. Beautiful curries every time

Thanks again Team everything was superb and arrived 20min early in total from the time window given.

Food was amazing and arrived hot, best onion bhaji's ive had, delivery was fast and driver was very pleasant would highly recommend and definitely be ordering again

Superb food and service which arrived 11min early from the total time window given and the driver even went through the order to make sure it was all there. Thanks again Team.

Probably the 4 stars and under are from brits who couldn’t find fish’n chips on the menu. They should try their own specific cuisine. Like pigs in blankets, karen. I guess someone needs to pay their benefits too. I am a Romanian vet surgeon and this is the best Indian food I ever had. Alex

Food and service was superb, Everything arrived 18min early in total from the time window given, Thanks again Team for another tasty meal.

Fantastic once again, good was piping hot, delivery was quick. Thank you

Everything arrived 34min early from the total time window given and everything was tasty and superb, Thanks again Team.

Hadn’t seen my friend in many years. She came to visit me and wanted to treat me to an Indian meal. This was local to where I live and had really good reviews, so we booked it for Thursday 4th April at 7. It turns out we needn’t have booked, as there ended up being just 6 customers in the restaurant ( ourselves and two couples). When we arrived, we were made very welcome and our order was taken very quickly. We started with poppadoms and dips- very tasty, but would have been even better with a bigger portion of the dips. I elected to go for the Mixed Starter, followed by the Lamb Tikka Balti. My friend was prompted to miss the starter and have Lamb Rogan Josh and a sweet, as they looked so good and there was plenty of choice. My starter was beautifully presented and was really enjoyable (10/10). We both agreed the mains were of a high calibre- very good indeed. The meat was tender and everything very aromatic. All good so far, although it was noticeable that a few of the staff were openly on their mobile phones and this distracted from the atmosphere. I guess they were bored because it was so quiet, but not a good look to a customer. My friend was looking forward to her sweet and ordered the Amarena - essentially ice cream, yogurt and dairy cream topped off with black cherries. It is also the dish presented on their menus. When the dish arrived, it looked nothing like the picture nor the description. There were only two cherries and these were frozen. As she was so disappointed, we raised this with the same staff member who had made us so welcome at the start. Rather than offer an alternative solution, he became quite defensive and explained the desserts were not prepared on site, but brought in - so nothing to do with them essentially! He then asked would she like to choose an alternative. Obviously she said ‘no’ as we now knew the desserts were not going to be as they were presented on the menu. It was noticeable that we were given a wide berth after that. My friend had to approach the lady on the till to pay the bill. She explained how she was reluctant to pay for the dessert as it was clearly misrepresented on the menu. The tiller nor any other staff member at the restaurant apparently had no authority to discount the dessert from the bill. In the end, she placed a phone call to someone and was bringing the phone over to my friend. My friend asked ‘to whom am I speaking’, but we heard a voice say ‘ just take it off the lady’s bill’. The tiller unfortunately didn’t know how to activate the discount but we got there in the end. I would have starred this higher, as it started out so promisingly - but ended up being not so good. I think the staff would benefit from some customer service training.

without a shadow of doubt, the best Indian takeaway in Plymouth, must go there for a sit down meal soon 👍

Very disappointed, onion Bhaji too salty to eat, only 5/6 bits of chicken in tikka balti which was almost £12. Asked for no coriander and this was ignored. Won’t use again

Food and service was superb everything arrived 15min early in total from time window given and the driver even went through the order with us to make sure everything was there. Thanks again Team - definitely be back in the near future.

stunning as always. Best curry x

First time ordering from here and I'm very impressed the food and service was superb and everything was very tasty which arrived 15min early in total from the time window given by the manager himself, Well-done Team and thanks we will definitely be back here in the near future.

Very good food, generous portions, food delivered hot, some very happy people here 😁
