Ishmails in Chesterfield

1st and last time ordering from here. Ordered 4 different dishes and they were all pretty much the same taste and colour...Couldn't differentiate between them. Butter chicken was nothing like. The sauce in all the dishes was very salty, oily and basically horrible...like sauce from a jar. Couldn't even find any meat in them. Only decent thing was the poppadoms. Very disappointed. Most of it went in the bin. Quite pricey too...I don't mind paying if the food is good, but this unfortunately wasn't

God knows why this has 3/5 star review. It is by far the best ‘takeaway’ in chesterfield. That includes other styles of cuisine. (Mondays can be iffy tho)

Always lovely food, not had a bad dish yet and also very helpful when ordering in making sure the dishes I order are suitable for my dietary needs. Staff are always polite.

Absolutely beautiful food. And the staff was lovely. We will definitely be back. The food was cooked perfectly and the wine was lovely

This was our first time at this restaurant. It was chosen because of previous reviews and a location suitable for everyone. First impressions were good as the restaurant was warm and clean. We booked for 7 pm so quite early. The owner made us welcome and the waiter was attentive but not intrusive. The menu was varied but we ordered our usual meal ..very predictable but it arrived and we were very pleased. The pickle tray was well presented and we proceeded to the starter and main meal. By then the restaurant began to fill up and I noticed a steady stream of takeaway meals leaving. The restaurant is upstairs so some people with disabilities may find it challenging. I’m pleased to say the toilets were very clean and the hand dryer was working well. The restaurant has a 5 star hygiene rating. The prices and menu can be viewed online and seemed fair with no hidden charges. A good night was had by all.
