Avoid !!! Called in my order and was told to come at 5.30. Arrived at 5.30, lights off door locked. Called them & the girl said she will get in touch with them ?? So we then went to the Chinese instead. No idea where the food is being cooked as it’s certainly not in the shop, shocking customer service. AVOID.

Called my order in at 5.50 and was told it would be ready to collect at 7. Arrived at the shop at 7 and no sign of the food just an old bloke telling me the food was coming from Jedburgh but he didn't know when. 7.30 another bloke arrived with the food and the worst attitude in the world so so rude. Food was OK but I won't be back as their customer service was SHOCKING!

Made an order online for my party of 10, price coming to over £120, waited 90 mins for the order to arrive and then rang up to ask where the food was only to be told they didn’t want to process the order because they were busy. I then drove to Kelso to collect food from another restaurant and upon passing this restaurant I noticed it wasn’t busy at all, was lied to. Don’t waste your money here!

Sounds like a clash of cuisines but tastes wonderful. Not too hot and the little green chillies are optional once on the plate but just great with them. Smashing and I've tried the new one in town but find this one takes the prize for flavour. Takeaway only.

FIRST OF ALL AND MOST IMPORTANT IS THAT THEIR PHONE DOES NOT WORK. ADVERTISED NUMBER NOT AVAILABLE EVEN THOUGH IT IS EVEN ON THEIR WINDOW. Nothing is real about this restaurant. Tonight as we dropped our daughter to work nearby I sent my husband in for King Prawn Marsala with rice and some raita sauce. It cost me £17.00 pound. We drove home which is about 15 miles away and I opened my food. I don't know what these things were in my meal but they were NOT King Prawns. They looked like they were from an animals inside and had neither the taste or smell of prawns. I had my husband taste them as I have allergies and could have been seriously ill if I had taken a bite. As for the raita sauce it was like a cup of orange sugar- just awful. Of course we tried to ring but no answer and no way of even checking what the hell they had put in my meal. So it has gone in the dustbin and anyone thinking of buying from this place just beware of what you are eating.

Ordered Chicken Ceylonese - which is a hot dish with lots of coconut (I've eaten them for decades). This particular version had no coconut in it whatsoever and was extremely mild and sweet. The sauce most definitely came from a jar and having spoken with others, I suspect that whatever you order this is exactly what you'll get.I also ordered a Garlic Nan, and aside from being so tiny, it tasted like a damp tent smells - disgusting. Both dish and nan hit the bin, pronto!Frankly, I have certainly had better from a cheap supermarket.Service was very smiley - perhaps too smiley, if you know what I mean.Best avoided. They need to learn that we actually know what real curry is!

We get a takeaway from these guys most Mondays so, as we are fussy, they must be good. I usually have the same things - prawn dhansak, chilli rice and a plain naan. They do chilli rice for me even though it's not on the menu. My husband tends to have something different each time and has not had a dish he didn't like, although his favourite is their tarka dhal. I'm salivating as I write this :)

Review from Juliet Fuke. I have had a few take aways from here in past, average, but after being totally ignored last night (they obviously don't want the custom) will not bother returning! Total lack of customer service, waited ten minutes, was seen by two men in back chopping up stuff, no smile, no eye contact. They looked scruffy, wearing dirty clothes, no aprons, old jeans and grubby tea shirts, that was enough! Didn't look clean. Shame no competition in kelso Also food bills have been different amounts previously for same items. Will be trying Coldstream in the future.

Had three takeaways during the past week from this takeaway restaurant. Always ready when they said it would be. Quality of food good to very good every time - excellent flavoursome food. Only small gripe I'd have is about the size of the portions - I felt they were just a wee bit on the small size. Also the nan bread is fairly small compared to the usual size of a nan.Having said that, I knew that after the first time - yet still went back two more times in the week I was in Kelso. So a pretty good recommendation really.

Worst Indian I've ever had. Rice was dry, chicken tikka masala was horrible, sauce looked like tomato puree and tasted much the same and to top it off it was cold. Definitely won't be back.

Can honestly say this was the worst Indian meal we have ever had. Reasonable price but the Korma was watery and tasteless. The chicken pakora looked like it had been booked and was served with limp onions. The popodoms were served with onion chutney but it was only diced onions... no sauce. Overall awfull.

After reading several reviews, we ordered. And needless to say it all went in bucket. Mixed grill was like dog food, naan bread was awful, as was pakora. 2 stars because there's nothing to compare it to, but Edinburgh has so much to offer with Indian food. 1 plus. It was real chicken and not the pre packed 1.5 kilo bags from the cash and carry.

Stopping in Kelso for the week an Indian on at least one of the nights was a must.Came here for a take away and was pleasantly surprised, fresh tasty curry, side dish and breads of the highest order. Each dish having its own distinct signature (unlike some where all the sauce is from the same pot) we had Pathia, Dopiaza, tikka Masala and a Pasanda all were great.We ordered garlic and Kema nan breads which were both lush....

Visited here for a curry tonight and was definitely disappointed. Staff are rude and look like they hate their jobs as well as throwing the basket down with our hand towels in. We are not animals and that type of disrespect is unjustified. Meal was actually half decent despite lacking atmosphere. Everything was fine until the bill was settled, a surcharge was added without knowledge, although this may be standard, the hike to the bill was not. The curry ordered on the menu was £9.95, although we was was charged £13.95. On top of that we was then over charged by £26.00. I would advise anyone who chooses to eat here to check their bill before paying. To add I received a refund after calculating each item with the waiter several times who then admitted he calculated incorrectly.

We eat Indian food everywhere we go, regularly cook it at home and we buy takeaways from different restaurants once a week. It is usually excellent. This place was the first really disappointing experience we’ve had in years. Ordered four main dishes which were all basically the same. Characterless, watery veg and really lacking in flavour, complexity and depth. Texture of each sauce was the same too. Pilau rice was just basmati stained with turmeric and the naan was flat and dense rather than fluffy and light. There is not competition for miles around but seriously… must try harder. Not at all recommended.
