LA Buffalo in Havering

Been here a few times now. Lovely food always good size portions and great night out with friends. You won’t be disappointed.

very disappointed, fries were cold and soggy only half portion for loaded fries, and not very loaded. burgers were warm but dry. kids weren't happy 😕

Had to wait for 1 hour for the food to be delivered, was cold when arrived, couldn’t contact the store as no one picked the call or disconnected straight away.

Went on a Monday and found we were the only customers. The chef and waiter greeted us with big smiles which was a good start. Told him we had a Wowcher, No problem. Got our drinks and the waiter gave us five mins to order our starters. When we got that out of the way he gave us another five to sod around choosing mains. Got to say that some of the items on the menu I,d never heard of before(will get back to that later).The starters came up a little on the small side but were quite nice. The mains(one Passanda, one Korai and one Tikka Mossala were reasonable sized but all three were very different from what I had ever had before!!! They just weren,t what we were used to. They were very nice, and I think reading between the lines and the strange items on the menu led me to conclude that Chef might not be your average East End/Essex Indian restaurant chef. Possible he is from some obscure part of the Asian Subcontinent. Plus points...... good flavoured mains, nice rice and sides. Friendly geezers. Minus points.....small starters, Peshwari nans came up plain. No draft beers(despite at least two pumps at the bar). That's why it,s only three stars. Just remembered none of the phone numbers work so had to take a chance they were open

When you pay about 30% extra for your food. You would expect the takeaway to be good. Clearly not here. Satay chicken, was overcooked and dry. Nasi goreng too moist but acceptable Crispy salt and chilli squid, not crispy but soggy and flavourless Crispy shredded chilli beef was surprisingly 5 star and very good. Now the pad Thai. If your cuisine has Thai focus on it, the pad Thai needs to be at least decent, otherwise your takeaway is doomed. The takeaway is definately doomed, my pad Thai was swimming with sauce and overly sweet. All I could taste was the pad Thai sauce. Overall terrible food, definately would not order again. Absolutely overpriced for what it is. I pay £45 where it would usually cost me £28 in my local takeaway and this is ordering direct too.
