Been using this restaurant as it’s fairly local and quite good food but very dissatisfied with the last visit which will be the last one for me as I thought the waiter extremely rude, when I complained my chicken madras looked more like chicken soup, he took it back and returned 5/6 minutes later when the rest of my meal was cold, no apology at all and made you feel like your an inconvenience as opposed to a fairly regular customer. I’m now using the new shad in Frindsbury, great food, excellent staff and not as spiteful with the cost, in a way I’m pleased I had this experience as the shad’s food and service so so much better.

Good food...when it finally arrived. We've been here twice now as a family of four. Both times there were spare tables so the kitchen wasn't overwhelmed but the service was so so slow! We thought the first time was just a bad night but after a repeat performance we definitely won't be coming back. It took 1.5hrs for the mains to arrive and we had to ask where they were. Every other table had eaten their mains so the kitchen was literally just cooking our meal. When I asked where it was, the young man asked another member of staff but noone bothered to come and apologise or update us as to where our meals were. Such a shame, nice food but won't be going back.

Could of been better - I’m not one to slander a local business but I ordered a madras and I can honestly say I’ve had Tikka Masalas that were more spicy, further more the sauce was so watery I was confused to if I was having a curry or a drinking a Bloody Mary after a long night out. Finally I think bubba hump shrimp boat must of sunk, because I only managed to get two small prawns in a whole prawn purée, rather disappointing experience to say the least.

We come down from Manchester to visit Gravesend 2-3 times a year to visit family and always look forward to a meal from Kohnioor. We were first introduced to the restaurant around 8 years ago and have always made time for a visit for a meal or take away. Whether sitting in or taking away we have always been delighted with the quality of the food…fantastic every time. Staff have always been friendly and helpful. Keep up the good work, see you again soon!

Stumbled across this Indian restaurant looked good from the outside and people were eating inside so thought it would be good. Clean and tidy inside. Didn't realize it only served soft drinks so went for a small coke which was flat and asked for a jug of water three times before that arrived. (you have to take your own alcohol) Ordered our food, what we had was only ok nothing special, very small portions, chicken tikka dansak, chicken dupiaza, chicken tikka biryani, garlic nann, onion bhaji (only got 2 they were very small), 4 popadums and 2 small cokes. Received the bill £54.13, WOW!!!!!! that was an very, very expensive meal, got charged for the chutneys with the popadums, never have i ever been charged for chutney as it always comes with the popadums. Staff not very attentive.Did not visit the toilets so cannot comment on that, but also the waiter that took our order and delevered our food was chewing something!!! gum possibly?? and this is a big hate of mine. Will not be going back. All i can say is in my local Indian i can order this and more with 4 pints of cobra and the cost is the same and it is a far better meal, bigger portions, with friendly attentive staff, and complimentary drinks.

The Kohinoor has been my parents local take away since... Well forever. But we do occasionally visit for a sit down meal. On this occasion I was meeting up with a friend for a bit of 1-2-1 time.Nice little secluded booths mean you can have a meal and chat without disturbing others dining... A big plus for me, as I'm a bit of a Brian Blessed.The food was fresh, delicious and plentiful.Staff were attentive, but not in your face... It was a slow weekday, but we did end up spending a long time just chewing the fat. The staff left us to our catch up and didn't try to move us on, only topping our drinks up when called on. Truly a lovely relaxed atmosphere.

I have been to this restaurant many times and booked a table for 7.30 for us and four friends who had never been there. It was very busy as usual. Our poppadoms were bought fairly quickly,we then waited until 9.40 for our main course. We kept asking why the Delay,two of our party were diabetic,which we explained.. They just smiled and bought us a starter between the six of us to be getting on with. We noticed two tables of four who had 8 o'clock bookings getting their main courses. Eventually we got our meals and as usual the meal was excellent. Our main problem was not once did we get an apology or a reason.If someone had said to us I'm sorry we are short staffed or something we would've understood.

My friend recomended the place for lunch, I'm a loyal customer to my regular indian restaurant and I'm usually sceptical about trying new places as they are usually disappointing but this place took me by surprise. It's a rather small and intimate place but don't judge a book by its cover. We had the Sunday buffet menu and the best part about it is that it's not a help yourself , people breathing all over the food kind of buffet, you order off the menu and they cook it fresh to order. The food we had was amazing, so full of flavour and generous servings too. Great customer service friendly staff. I've been converted and this will be my new regular indian restaurant.

A relative visits this restaurant on a regular basis and I decided to visit with my father - this was his fourth visit to a curry house so a tricky man to please as he didn't know what to have and generally doesn't like dishes with sauces .... you might wonder why I took him for a curry then but with the prices that pubs are starting to charge for simple pub dishes and a shortage of options, I thought it worth a go.

I have given it a three star as it is within walking distance, otherwise it would be two stars. No matter how many times I have been honest about the food and spoken to the staff, I still get served the rubber frozen chicken. Not everytime, but most. When you pay £50-60 I would rather pay £2 more and get fresh chicken. Surely you're not trying to make an extra couple of squid and buying cheap. It shouldn't come to pleading on a public site.When there is a butchers next door there is no excuse. Come on guys, up your game. I want to use your restaurant because I don't have to drive and you're nice guys, but treat us customers with respect. We can taste the difference, even in the stronger flavoured dishes. You are the only indian restaurant I visit for miles that dishes up the supermarket, mass produce, water injected chicken. We deserve better. I want to use you, but I'm struggling. The lights are on but no one is at home. Please, please, please serve us fresh chicken!!!!!!!!You'll have far more repeat business.

Had evening meal here on Wednesday 2nd Nov, whilst visiting my dad for a few days, who lives in Istead Rise.Set amongst a small cluster of local shops. Was surprised how busy it was for a Wednesday evening at 7pm.Good selection on menu, but food didn't come as spicy as other restaurants we have visited. My husband ordered chicken tikka madras, which is normally too hot for me to eat, but I tasted his and I would have been able to eat the full dish. Appeared to be only "medium". My dads vindaloo was only "hot" and not "hot hot."My dupiaza and daughters korma were fine. The rice was quite sticky and big clumps of it stuck together.Not impressed with the drinks. Despite our Diet Coke and lemonade coming from a bottle, it was very flat. We returned the drinks which were replaced by more flat coke and lemonade. Guess the lids from the bottles had been left off. Couldn't be bothered returning drinks again, so drank them.The decor inside is lilac and could do with updating. Waiters pleasant enough. Handy little restaurant on an estate if you can't be bothered cooking, but not one that I would recommend if you are looking for a great evening out.

The local Indian is always busy, especially on Friday nights & Saturday nights! I would definitely recommend booking a table - and if you can't get through on the phone they are on opentable for online bookings.Great flavour in all their dishes and a great portion size - just enough to make you feel completely stuffed and uncomfortable. The waiting staff are so friendly and like to have a laugh - which brings good vibes to the atmosphere. It is pricey but then what isn't now days?! Great, for takeaways - but again order early because peak dinner time is always busy!!

Visited kohinoor on Thursday evening with the family for their banquet night special. The service was abysmal. We had to beg for more drinks. The food portions were tiny. I had 4 pieces of lamb in my madras. The chicken korma's sauce was like glue! When we go to other curry houses, we always go leave with a doggie bag. This time we all left hungry. I feel for the residents of Istead Rise, only having one curry house to choose from!

Always have an enjoyable time at this restaurant, the food is always good and the staff are extremely helpful. Thoroughly recommend, a little of the beaten track but well worth it.

Live near this place- good food but always disappointed in service, price and size of portions - really tight with rice and simosas way over priced.Tried it twice - never again. Tufal in Gravesend better value

I'm not sure I need to bother writing a review this place was so busy;deservedly so though the food was excellent.since becoming a vegetarian two years ago lots of my favourite foods have become quite incipid. however the Kohinoor offered a mirror version of virtually all of their dishes. will definitely be returning again.

A midweek night out with friends (there were 8 of us). Nice friendly greeting and drinks served very quickly. The restaurant was almost full to capacity which shows its popularity as it was a Wednesday evening. Plenty of choice on the menu including the usuals as well as some specials. Everything we ordered was tasty and full of plenty of meat. We weren't rushed and the staff were attentive when required. A lovely little restaurant!

Visited for Sunday buffet with friends and can understand why families would use it to fill up hungry children. It is not a self service style of buffet - you order whatever you want from the menu so you don't leave hungry.The dishes contained a high proportion of sauce, and that was suspiciously luminous (Peckham Spring Water comes to mind) but good for dunking the nan bread in.At the end of the day, OK for a local but I wouldn't recommend as a destination restaurant.

Our first experience of the Kohinoor was a takeaway back in January of which was of high quality so we planned a visit here to see how good the place really was. Its a small Resturant so can be a little cramped, it was very busy so service was a little slow, but the food was superb! This place is very popular so it's advisable to book to avoid disappointment. The only thing this place lacks is space otherwise it's a great curry house with really nice staff. 10/10

I chose this restaurant on a whim, as it is a few miles out, but did not regret it. It may have helped that we were the only ones dining on a Monday night (there were a few in for takeaways), so had the full attention of the kitchen staff. We skipped the starters (it was already 8:30 in the evening when we arrived) apart from the popadoms (which came with, et al, a really nice tamarind sauce) and went straight into the main courses. My partner - a vegitarian - felt spoiled for choice, as did I, but we eventually settled on Duck Tikka Korai and Vegetable Passanda, supported by nanns, rice, and Motar Paneer. The food was really good, well flavoured, and not (as too often happens elsewhere) at all oily. The staff were friendly and attentive without being intrusive.Overall, I thought the combination of good food and value for money was great, and will certainly be going again.

Saturday night with friends had a very nice meal. Food was excellent, really good but we had over an hour wait which is too long. We were also charge £16 extra for drinks which should have been charge to another table !!! but........ it was sorted out once I mentioned it to the manager. I'm sure it was a genuine mistake and it would not stop me from going back. All in all, very good mainly down to the quality of the food. The reason for the delay was due to the huge amount of people coming in to collect their take-aways.

We are a group of ladies who meet here about every 6 weeks for a curry and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is very small and can feel a little cramped but other than knocking through into the Co op next door, there's not a lot they can do about that!We have never ever had a bad meal here and we have been coming for at least 7 years as a group. Everything is tasty and well cooked, all fresh ingredients. Food can sometimes take a little while but that is because it's cooked from scratch. We normally come on Banquet night and this can be busy. This time we came on a Wednesday evening and the restaurant was packed out! You should always book here as it is so very popular. All the staff are super friendly but very professional and welcoming. We are always the last to leave!! We love it here, we have tried the Curry club in Longfield opposite the station and the staff are quite surly and not at all friendly! Was a one off and we very quickly came back to the Kohinoor the following month! We would not go anywhere else and some of us drive up from Bexley area and some are local ish. This is a fantastic little curry house and well deserves the 5* rating we give it. The staff are lovely and always look after us very well, faultless. See you next month! x

This was our first experience of Kohinoor Spice and I'm pleased to say it was a very good one ! The takeaway was delivered promptly, the food was piping hot and of a very good standard. I would go as far a saying that it was the best we've had locally. Better than both of the Indians in Meopham. Can't wait to go for a meal in the Resturant now we've sampled the food from what was a excellent takeaway. 10/10 from me.

have had a couple of nice meals at istead rise easy to park and short drive but It may be me I seem to be always calling for the waiters as they concentrate fully on locals which I do understand but its all the same money whoever pays for it and should all be treated equal and never seems that way perhaps if I went every week I would get more special treatment,but very good food

Me and my wife have been visiting the Kohinoor for over 20 years probably on a basis of at least once a week. We have had many a party within this place and would recommend to anyone.Ok it's not fancy internally but your not eating the wallpaper and paint but it is what it is.Good tasty food one of my favourite places to eat. Never had a rough curry and always looked after.I have eaten in some of the best eating establishments there is across different countries.Forget the bull the baddies are saying and give it a try if your around. Very hard to get in at weekends unless you book. That tells you everything luvvi es.

We (our family of 10) ordered a takeaway for delivery on Saturday as we were having a special family gathering. We had heard and read good reviews so thought we’d order from Kohinoor Spice.Firstly, they should be honest with how long the delivery should take. We were told when we called it would be within the hour but it took over two to arrive. If customers are told honestly they can make a decision to order or not. With two young children getting tired and hungry we ended up going out to get them fish and chips. You wouldn’t sit in a restaurant for 2 hours before being served would you?The food itself, although very hot when it arrived, was well below the quality we had expected. The prawns were small, the chicken appeared to be processed rather than proper meat and the lamb sparse. The sauces were rather thin which made the dishes a bit tasteless as it seemed that rather than cooking the meat in the sauces it was just poured over.The onion bhaji’s were a bit on the greasy side and the Aloo Gobi and Bombay Potato were like the main dishes – on the tasteless side. The breads were good, however.Overall it was a really poor and disappointing experience. I appreciate they may have been busy in the restaurant but you can’t expect customers to wait so long - especially if the food itself isn't going to be worth the wait.Maybe it was just an off night and we were unlucky, but we certainly won’t be using them again.
