Indigo Indian Dining in Uttlesford - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Another great evening @ Indigo. Food consistently good from visit to visit and as always we were well looked after by Sayid and the team.

The food was extremely tasty and the staff were extremely, kind, friendly and funny. They're all good people🤍

Sayed always takes care of us. Brillaint service. Thank you brother 🙏🏽

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Indigo Indian restaurant and was thoroughly impressed. The lamb nihari was absolutely delicious, rich in flavour and perfectly cooked. The waiter, Arman, was exceptionally attentive and made our dining experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for authentic Indian cuisine and excellent service.

The food was absolutely amazing and Raj was so lovely and attentive. Couldn't be any better ❤️

First time in the area and stopped in on Monday as it was nearly the only place open. Was not disappointed as the staff were very welcoming and friendly. The food was very good and if we happened to live nearby I would certainly return.

The food was nice. What did you expect from a Indian restaurant? It was dated inside, but the service was fantastic

Best Indian food I’ve had in a while! Butter chicken is incredible and the guys in there are super friendly and welcoming! Couldn’t recommend more!

Pleasant restaurant, Garlic Chilli Chicken was fine, Dhansack very oily. Slightly strange atmosphere from staff.

I was quite disappointed really. It wasn't busy but we were not very well attended to, and not terribly cheerfully. The food was OK, but not special and I wouldn't go back. They also add a compulsory 10% service charge, which I totally disagree with, we always leave tips for good service and resent it being taken automatically.

Really good chicken tikka masala. The papodoms are really fresh and tasty. Stayed is a great host! Thanks guys 😀

Excellent service sayed, lovely food and very accommodating, look forward to coming next time, very good value for money

Very good chicken tikka masala and the papoduns/salad are really fresh. Service is spot on too. We eat here once a week and v happy.

As foreigners ordered takeaway here and whilst in a holiday cottage the driver managed to find us. Good service and food was delicious and warm when it arrived. A plus as well, delivery ahead of schedule.

Just flew into Stansted on our way home and stopped for a meal in Saffron Walden. This place was brilliant, the service, the food and restaurant were fantastic and well worth a visit. We shall be coming again when next in the area.

I was in Saffron Walden to meet a friend and we decided on dinner. Very much a traditional Indian restaurant. Service was polite and efficient. Prices were reasonable. I had chicken shashlick and my friend lamb passanda. My shashlick was great it came with a salad, yogurt sauce and I ordered a naan. My first olive in an indian restaurant with the salad! I love olives. It was exactly what it sets out to be, Slightly surprised in an affluent place like SW that a more contemporary approach to Indian food isn't on the menu. However there is nothing wrong with old school and I'd happily eat there again.

Great restaurant, best around. Food is always lovely, and service is great, especially from Sayed, he is very friendly and always willing to help.

We have just had one of the nicest Indian meals that we have had outside India for a very long time and the staff were very attentive and friendly we were made to feel important and cherished as customers, very well done we will be back

The whole family loves going to Indigo, the food and service is superb. Sayed always ensures we have the best experience and always really kind to us. Going back again soon!

Absolutely the best indian restaurant in Saffron Walden. Food is amazing, very tasty and look perfect. The staff is very kind and very organized. Big thanks for Sayed who is one of the main guy there. 100% recommend this place to anyone who loves indian people and indian cuisine.

The food was extremely tasty and the staff were extremely, kind, friendly and funny. Sayed especially went out of his way to make us feel welcomed and lightened the mood with his jokes and the way he presented himself. They're all good people

Excellent dinner on Thursday evening at Indigo with family. Staff are so friendly and helpful with the menu, sharing their recommendations and favourites. The food was beautifully presented and tasted as good as it looked! Can’t wait to come back again soon.

Excellent service and Fantastic food. Highly recommend the tandoori prawns. Never had a bad meal here. And the staff are lovely.

Great consistant food with a good selection. Staff are friendly and attentive. Had a very good meal on Saturday evening.

One of my favourite curry houses. Great food and always top notch service from Sayeed and the team.

This is the most beautiful restaurant I've ever been to, the two gentlemen waiters were absolutely lovely and so so good at their table service, the restaurant was beautifully clean and the food was amazing, I highly recommend this classy and welcoming food establishment.... go on... book a table.... I promise you you won't regret it xxxxxxxx🥰🥰🥰

Sayed and shumon were amazing, fantastic service! Great food and great atmosphere, lovely evening here after a busy day!

Ordered at 17:30 food wasn’t delivered until 19:10 I was notified it was out for delivery at 18:35. Food was pretty much cold and really not enjoyable. Shame

raju fantastic and Simon perfect

Tonight was our 3rd time here and it never fails to disappoint! Sayed served us the last two times and has been world class every time!

The food here is absolutely delicious, there is no doubt. Sayed who serves us went above and beyond as per usual. Can’t recommend enough. Even buzzing on a Wednesday night and that’s telling enough. Get the prawn pathia if you can handle your spice!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. The chutneys and Curries are so fresh and delicious. The chicken Jalfrezi is my favourite, always prepared with fresh peppers and tomato. But beyond the food, the service is always top notch. Sayiid and his crew make a point to getting to know their return customers and are super attentive. Best curry in Saffron Walden hands down.

Sayed give me and my friends good costumer service sayed really make me happy when I come to the restaurant he service me and my friend with respect he know how to service I have been in other restaurants I have never see someone who know how to service they him and the restaurant food is really delicious I really love the food and the chicken jalfrezi is my favorite

Very Good Food, came for a meal and drinks with friends, was served by Raj who was nice and made us all laugh

Came here for dinner with friends, great food, superb service. Sayed was very welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend.

Best Indian in saffron Walden, never had a bad meal

Best Indian in town, SAYED customer service is 💯 always. Thanks gents!!

Great food, great service. I have been here multiple times now and have been well looked after. I have recommended this place to friend and family. I would also like to say the butter chicken is amazing!!

Without doubt the best Indian restaurant in the area. Always great quality food with waiting staff who are friendly, ready to help with food choices and curries that actually taste different to each other, rather than an anglicised version. It doesnt matter how long between visits, Sayeed and the other waiting staff always remember you and never disappoint.

Have eaten in the restaurant several times. This takeaway was no where near the restaurant standard. The food was so not hot it had to be microwaved. Very disappointing as was a bday meal

Food was perfect, best place to eat in Saffron Walden Service is always great. Special mention to Sayed, always so friendly and welcoming.

Absolutely fantastic food great waiters and all round time and well priced. Would recommend to anyone wanting a nice meal

Just a delight on our first night in Saffron Walden - and last house move - to find a great Indian restaurant- Raj was so lovely and helpful: food was brilliant- a bit different from the norm - far better - we will be regulars for sure.

Had an amazing dinner with my friends. Sayed gave us excellent service and would recommend to anybody. The food was lovely and there is a lively vibe.

The best Curry in Saffron Walden and the surrounding areas by far, Sayed is such a friendly, warm host and all the staff are welcoming and happy. The food is just amazing and the kitchen are always happy to accommodate adaptions or changes. The poppadoms are the best I’ve ever had

Honestly the food was really good when it opened but its gone downhill. I ordered a king prawn biryani and never again. It was just chopped up king prawn not whole and I had some king prawn and I could tell it want cooked right it made me gagg hard to swallow. Honestly go to the Yuva in Debden so much better they don't deliver but the quality of their food is amazing.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Indigo, an outstanding Indian restaurant. The exquisite flavors and authentic dishes made my experience truly memorable. A special shout-out to our server, Sayed, whose attentive and friendly service elevated our evening. His knowledge of the menu and genuine enthusiasm added a personal touch to the dining experience. We left with full hearts and satisfied taste buds. Highly recommend Indigo for a delightful culinary journey!

Great food, on time and delicious!

Fancied a curry,I ordered a lamb rogan Josh.The food was piping hot,the service was great as always,The staff are always attentive,and customer service was great as always The managers customer care 100 percent,and his brother is always very friendly and polite

Indigo is our go to local Indian Restaurant where the food is always excellent, as is the service from Sayed and his team. Highly recommended

I eat here once a week as I’m a massive fan of a lamb madras. Since Indigo opened I’ve never had a bad meal from them either in the restaurant or takeaway. The restaurant inside is clean and the staff are very friendly. I would highly recommend going to Indigo as I can’t fault the place. Well done to everyone at Indigo

This is by far the best India restaurant Iv been too, and Iv been to a fair few. The food is exceptional and the family who run it are the nicest, friendliest people with excellent service. Sieed is a genuinely great host. Would highly recommend.

Food and service was brilliant. Sayed was great with his recommendations on the food.

Food was great as always! Sayed helped making the experience top quality. Would highly recommend

We’ve been going as a family for nearly 2 years now and always have a lovely time, Sayyid and team always makes us feel at home m. Excellent service and great food always.

Amazing food every time we visit, and great service all together and more specifically from Sayed!!

Indigo in my opinion, up until now, was the best curry house in saffron Walden. But it seems their crown is slipping fast. Curry was full of grease and extremely watery. Bombay aloo was also full of grease. This is the second time in 2 weeks and I have to say I now won't be returning.

The waiter was rude, smug and was happy to serve me a curry with gluten in after being told I had an intolerance. The food took two hours to arrive and was adequate when it arrived - the only saving grace was that food previously had there was enjoyable. We won’t go back based on this experience.

our food wasn't very warm especially as we collected as soon as it was ready.

Never had a better vegetable Korma

Fantastic food and great service! We rolled out of the restaurant with full, satisfied bellies. Thanks for a lovely Christmas Eve meal!

We ate here on Friday evening, admittedly a busy time on the run up to Christmas but the service was beyond terrible. We waited 30 minutes to get our drinks, then only half of them came out, we had to ask twice more before they all arrived. Then it came to ordering… my partner likes to have a Korma curry but for spice to be added. We were told no because it would upset her stomach. We explained that we know it’s not normal but it’s what she always orders and it doesn’t affect her, they said no incase it gave her a bad stomach. I explained that everyone who attends a curry house has a level of expectation that if they order a hot curry it may reflect on their digestive output the following day. The man argued and patronised for about five minutes In the end she ordered a mild curry with a side of Vindaloo sauce and made her own (I can report she suffered no issues). It’s ridiculous that they will serve a Farll curry but not a spicy korma… Then… despite being so concerned about our stomach welfare a staff member made my brother in law hand out plates, one of which was so hot it scalded his hand. We waited, and waited and waited an hour and 40 minutes later we finally all received our food minutes before we were about to walk out and go to the chippy. I asked to see the manager and was pointed towards him… apparently he was too important to come to our table and apologise and listen to our complaint. I stood for 5 minutes waiting in a queue of other complaining patrons before he got to me. He said he would remove the service charge and take money off the bill which he didn’t. The food was nice but the excessive wait, poor service and bad manners means me and my party of 9 will not return.

They couldn’t find our house so had to go out in the rain to find them.

Absolutely dreadful. We ordered takeaway to collect at 6.20pm and it was not ready until 7.10 pm. No apology from staff. After a 5 min drive home the food was barely warm. Thick layer of oil on the dishes and the king prawn starter was hard and looked like it had been cooked months ago. The onion Bhajis were rock hard too. Will never use again.

When Indigo took over and first opened, food and service was very good. Unfortunately, as is often the case, as time has passed the quality of the food has gone down. Given the size of Saffron Walden it is a shame that there is not a good quality Indian restaurant in the town.

Generally very good curry. Only used take away so far. Had a couple of issues where its been delivered way too early against what we'd asked for and they have missed the odd thing off, but the food is great

Excellent food, probably one of the best Indians I’ve been to. The owners are super friendly and look after the locals.

Great food , lovely service 100% recommend

Really nice Curry ,full of flavours, Will definitely order again from Indigo.

We ordered a takeaway delivery for nine separate curry dishes as we were having friends round. We ordered early for a prompt 8 pm delivery. We were warned that as it was quite a large order that it may be slightly later than 8. The food turned up at 8, was lovely and hot and absolutely delicious. Complimentary poppadums and wine included. Excellent service.

Very enjoyable meal here . Great food and the staff were attentive . It was quite busy but that just proves how popular it is .

Usually good but not this time. Late delivery and the sauce was the consistency of thin soup

I didn't visit on this occasion but called an order through. First ever time and they messed up a couple of years ago when first opened. Didn't offer a refund or replacement. Now the place seems to be established and it's much better dining in. I've since had several deliveries from here, stating I am type 1 diabetic so to cook dish without sugar. I won't order through just eat or those companies as I need to make sure what I am eating is correct and I know how much insulin is required. Last night I ordered and three times stressed no sugar in my dansak dish (I have substitute sweeter at home.. He relayed it over the phone to me twice. No sugar!! When I tasted a little before adding my substitute it was VERY SWEET. I called to ask if it was sugar. After speaking to the chef, I was informed it contained just a small amount. But from someone that don't do sugar it was a good fair amount. My partner tried it and he the same. What am I to do as I've already taken my insulin for the dish, so need to eat at least some!! Quick Google I did my best to calculate my insulin needs. Unfortunately it was incorrect and I had quite a scary hypo which I corrected with fast acting insulin. My point to them on the phone was if I said NO to something that is a dietary requirement which was VERY clear, always has been then why go ahead and ignore the requirements. Personally I would have liked a refund or dish sent out again. But was offered a discount once again on next order....yer right. I would have emailed them directly with this. In a nut shell it could have led to bad consequences. However if you view the website it comes back with this. See photo and spurs you on to just eat. If I had been treated with a little dignity over this complaint or been able to email direct I would have done. But unfortunately it's not the case. Their food is usually great but their customer service and service skills when dining in need to be looked at pronto or they won't be there much longer

Had our first take away from here on a Friday night. Arrived within the hour and the food was excellent. Still piping hot and a couple of free chabattis. Great meal 👍

Amazing 👍👍 We loved it 🎆 The food, drink and the staff are amazing they are so friendly and makes sure your happy with everything.

Delivery was late and food was cold, had to heat it up myself

Great food, well presented, delivered promptly.

The food was lovely but the service was terrible waited over a hour for mains loads of staff but no organisation one waiter was taking our food order and then some customers came in and the waiter left us to seat them, very rude, the food is lovely but will not be going back due to the massive wait time, rudeness and lack of organisation

We love the place, excellent food, good portions and the staff is always very polite , we order from them least once a week, thank you

Review: Indigo, heralded for its palatable offerings, presents a culinary journey that on the surface, is seemingly pleasant. The food overall does appeal to the taste buds, with a variety of flavors intertwining to create a symphony of taste. However, the harmonious experience is marred by a lack of accountability and customer respect when the inevitable restaurant mishap occurs. In my encounter with their service, an error in the order emerged. The situation could have been easily resolved with a simple correction or a credit, but to my disappointment, Indigo chose to neither correct the mistake nor offer compensation. This stark refusal to acknowledge and rectify their fault has caused considerable dismay. It is essential for any establishment, especially in the hospitality industry, to understand that they exist to serve the customer, and a lapse in service should be met with appropriate solutions and, at the very least, an apology. This unsavory experience has undoubtedly influenced my perspective of Indigo. While their food might be delicious, the taste is overshadowed by their lack of customer service responsiveness and responsibility. Consequently, I find myself compelled to dissuade friends, family, and anyone within my sphere of influence from frequenting this establishment. It is unfortunate when the taste of irresponsibility lingers longer than the flavor of the food, and in the case of Indigo, the former has irrevocably tarnished the latter. To retain patrons and maintain a reputable image, it is imperative for restaurants to value customer satisfaction and address grievances promptly and effectively, elements that Indigo critically lacks.

I visited this Indian Restaurant on 28’9’2023.I had a lovely pint of the lager,Then I ordered chicken jalfreezi with rice was absolutely delicious Great place to relax too.

I visited this lovely restaurant on Thursday 28th September..2023,the restaurant was fairly quiet but most places are on weekdays. The place is spotlessly clean The staff are friendly the food was delicious. I am certain I shall return soon

Food was lovely and hot but very late. Had to call the restaurant to find out where it was

Went here for dinner by chance because there wasn't much open on a Monday evening. Very friendly staff, food was served quickly. The food was very good. If we are in the area we will definitely come back here.

This is the best in the area. The Lamb Nihari is the special one! The staff are also the best in particular the two brothers genuinely nice people to be around.

We had a lovely meal here again tonight, this time for a birthday celebration. Food was absolutely amazing, service as always, impeccable, always very well looked after, staff always go that extra mile, cannot recommend enough, Thank you so much x

Great food, particularly the special chicken tikka buna! Friendly service too.

The first time I've tried indigo , was amazing delivery only 20 mins half time of just eats 40 and the food was to die for .I had the garlic chilli chicken chefs special. Will order again and come and dine in soon ❤️

Hi my food was over an hour late 60 mins won’t let me adjust above and when it arrived was cold and had the wrong order I ordered chicken tikka masala and got a Korma I want a refund please as waiting so long and got wrong order

Mannerless and unaccommodating waiter. Will not be be going back or recommending this place again

Bring a tent. Food was alright, but it shouldn't take an hour for the starters, with a further hour for the main. Waiter tried to keep us informed, but blaming it on the tandoori oven doesn't seem right.

What an absolute shambles! Normally choose this restaurant over the one in Newport Essex restaurant but totally let down tonight after numerous visits before!!! Brought up some one else’s main meal, after waiting an hour, decided to give up on our main!!! After waiting over an hour!!! Still paid for our drinks and starter before leaving, even after a very disappointing evening and other customers complaining. Poor show indigo, no customer service, lack of interest to regular customer’s and new!!! Will no longer be recommending you to the public of Saffron Walden!

This was the worst indian curry I have experienced. Chicken shashlik buhna. Consisted of lots of raw onion very few small bits of chicken and quite a bitter sauce . I won't be going back .

Hi,The service is extremely slow if i went to france and back they still wouldn't have finished with my order.The waitresses were really rude as i was from Cuba.I hope this restaurant gets closed.

Good service and good tasting food except for one thing... I paid for a Peshwari Naan bread and got a plain one!

Unfortunately missing Papadams ordered but otherwise fab food and service.

The best Indian in Saffron Walden by far, and actually one of the best I’ve had. Always piping hot, always early, always delicious!

We had dinner here last night and it was just superb. The service was impeccable and the food was fantastic. The restaurant is beautiful, there is much consideration to detail. We will absolutely be back.

Love this takeaway, when I want Indian food delivered to my house I won't go anywhere else.

Indigo Indian Dining - DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY. Our delivery arrived after over 2 hours, despite calling 3 times and having the phone slammed on us twice! The food was apparently out for delivery for 45 minutes. When we asked for a fresh order to be sent, as the food would be cold upon arrival; we were told “that’s not how a business works” and when requesting a manager they said “there wasn’t a manager”. The food arrived but was cold and inedible. We complained but were refused a refund and told “have you never heard of a microwave?”, before slamming the phone down. This was the worst takeout/dining experience and warn other customers to expect the same treatment should they choose indigo.
