Little India in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Absolutely delicious, service perfect. I would highly recommend, food was perfect and would definitely come here again.

Have been coming here for years, food and service has always been good. Highly recommended!

Lovely evening meal. The Afghan lamb was delicious as was the shashlik king prawns. Really enjoyed our meal and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Nice Indian food. Worth for money

The food was excellent and superb service.

Take aways for 4 , late night food.. chicken korma, king prawns curries, naans, etc.. big portions, enough for 5. With a few extras thrown in too..

We are quite regular customers and I can say that every visit is outstanding! From the hospitable staff to the authentic and absolutely delicious currys on offer. We are never disappointed, and the food is excellent I can't fault it. Love the new plates they complement the food wonderfully. We can't wait until our next visit we'll done to all your dedicated staff.

amazing food and customer service! Lamb biriyani and the curry was amazingly taste good. Quality and continuity was excellent 👌🏽 Nuakali special was revaluation meat and prawns mixed together …. impressed! If anyone craving for some authentic Indian and Bengali cousin don’t forget to visit here …

Wow, such a wonderful experience. Food was excellent - panner tikka starter, tarka dhal, dingi palak, King prawn sashlick masala must be try at this place. Service was excellent and very efficient and friendly. Thank you to Milad for a lovely evening.

Service was excellent, food was amazing. Restaurant was lovely and clean. Well done Team .

One of the best Indian meals I have had. The service was fast, friendly and efficient and excellent value for money. Will definitely return when we are next in Cornwall.

Definitely the friendliest Indian restaurant in town. The food is absolutely delicious.

We thought we'd give them a try while on holiday in Penzance. The food was great, staff were very friendly and attentive. Recommended

Poor food quality, uncooked chiken, completely waste of money.

Food was good .Staff they are very friendly & attentive . I recommend chicken Biryani , Tandoori Chicken & Chicken tikka.

Modern & clean decor. Halal & alcohol free (byo). Excellent service & friendly. Lots of meat - not just onions/peppers like other Indians that use shoet cuts. Would recommend achari chicken & tandoori chicken with tandoor/garlic naans. If you like you're spice I'd recommend asking them to spice it up. Thank you :)

Well worth a visit or a takeaway. Large party of Ladies on a night out on Sat evening. Everything 'spot on' as usual. Thanks everyone there, you're all amazing 👏

I was recommended this restaurant by a friend and was not disappointed. Food was delicious fabulous blend of flavours. Beautifully presented and piping hot 10/10. Can’t fault them at all

Well-cooked food but lacking in Indian style and spicing. Butter Chicken was chicken tikka in a strange sauce. Biryani was oily but with perfectly cooked meat. All dishes lacked flavour. No alcohol licence - BYO. No coffees. Welcome and comfort mediocre at best. Not cheap either.

Stunning restaurant and the food was one of the best I've had. I loved the chicken tawa and my son even said mummy the food is yummy! He ate very well and my girls also were impressed. The staff were friendly and were kind to our children and gave them mint chocolates. The food was hot and spice level was bang on! We were very hungry after St Michael's Mount so we ate well :) I'd recommend this gem of a restaurant!

What place! What people! Where do I start!? I was thinking of havin a quick kebab and hittin the motorway but when I saw this place across the Road…🤩 I came in yesterday the Boss bhaisab was amazing he went from opening the door for US to serving us food HIMSELF and during all this we had an amazing chat filled with laughs stories and lots of love! The staff were very friendly and every time you needed something it was there before you could even ask! Honestly I eat out A LOT😅 but this restaurant set service standards on a new level!😮‍💨 Big up Little Indian Penzance!👏🏻 Thank you! We’ll see you very soon insha’Allah!

The food is great and the service is excellent. Also, the hygiene level is high.

Although the food and service is always fantastic. The 10% that is added to your bill is not given to staff so please decline to pay this and give the 10% in cash which IS shared between the staff in tips. Still my favourite indian just deceitful ownership as this is not stated.

If you hungry stay hungry but dont come here. This is definately not Indian food. Eat chips and move ahead but do not stop here

We really enjoyed the food and highly recommend this restaurant. We had wonderful service from our waiter Adil who was knowledgeable about the menu and even checked in with us regarding his recommendations after the meal. A nice experience.

Lovely meal with quality breast of chicken which is unusual for an Indian most use thigh to enhance the flavour but the taste was great, slight compliant was the Patia sauce wasn't as thick as i am used to but that said 100% would recommend ,Just remember it is licenced to bring your own which is probably why it such good value

Believe the 3.9 star rating, against our better judgment we ordered a takeaway from here. The cuts of meat were poor and chewy. The tandoori chicken and lamb had no flavour as did the onion rice. The icing on the cake was hair in our mango chutney which made Me sick instantly. A waste of £40

Service of the restaurant was awesome with moderate vegetarian options. Food we ordered was tasty but a bit oily

We had the most delicious takeaway curry. The best I’ve had in the Uk! Thank you for your hospitality 😊

Walked in late at night as we could smell the delicious food. They were closing down but still accommodated us and when I ran back to order something else they also included it. Super friendly guys and very nice interior. Food was delicious - best curry this side of England!

The food was amazing.I had the Chicken shaslick buna & onion bhaji.The stuff are Milad & Adil very adorable.

Neat restaurant, clean. Friendly service. Food tasted like India

I would be really hard pressed to say anything negative about the food here. One of the best lamb jalfrezi I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating

Must say been eating curry for 40 odd years all over uk. This was in the top. Great flavors. The vegetable curry with my birrianna tender lamb ( not tikka ) was the best I’ve had. Veg was proper fresh and not over cooked. Mrs said the same about her meal. Take ur own booze. Staff really nice. Keep it up.

Perfect in every aspect, as with every visit.

ordered 8:02 online, called an hour in and got the class act “yeah out for delivery”, called another hour in to “oh we never received this order. the online system…” 0/10 - have ordered before and the food is decent but it always takes over an hour and that’s if you order over the phone

Stunning food wonderful service! Highly recommend. Really enjoyed the chefs specials! Great value and you can take your own drinks too! What's not to like?? Thank you!

The food was amazing. I had the King Prawn Tawa - perfect amount of heat and sweetness. The staff are absolutely adorable. It is also great value for money

Went on a Friday night, so very busy. Service very slow. Took ages to even be shown to our (empty) table. Nearly an hour before food arrived. Standard Indian fare, suspiciously bright red sauces !!!! Tasted ok. Pleasant staff, when they appeared. Clean, but bland decor. Average experience.

Another great visit, has become a regular of mine. Booked a table for 10 people last night. Everyone loved the food. Service is also friendly and efficient.

Best Indian restaurant. Great food & excellent service every time . One of boy name milad he is very friendly & attentive. I love there butter chicken & garlic tawa.

Very nice and clean restaurant. Good location on the edge of town. Service was very good but one of the waiters needs to go to English classes as he struggled with the lingo. The food was very tasty and well presented, the only reason it is not a 5 star as it could have b n hotter. But overall I really enjoyed it and will be back on my next visit to Penzance.

How fortunate to discover that this fab Indian restaurant is our local eaterie to our new home in Penzance. Very welcoming and efficient staff. The food is beautifully cooked and presented. The peshwari naan was amazing. We couldn’t eat it all so our waiter offered to package it up to take home. We hadn’t realised that it was a Bring Your Own as they don’t serve alcohol but they suggested popping into the pub next door to bug a drink. It’s good to know that they don’t charge corkage. I’m not normally a big Indian food fan but I think I just might have discovered somewhere that has changed my mind!

We enjoyed the food a lot, definitely recommend.

Friendly attentive staff, nice atmosphere, and a fantastic menu of really great food. If you want alcohol bring your own, there is no extra charge. Enjoy a delightful meal.

Had a good meal here with friends, great onion bhaji's, and naan breads. My only comment was that the description on the menu of what we ordered did not seem representative of what turned up. It was all good and tasty, but we were both disappointed with a dish that said sizzling , but clearly was not.

Our order was placed over the phone and we ordered several different dishes to cater for five people. The order was correct in every respect and the food was delicious, there was not one complaint and a wonderful evening was had by all. Thank you, we have used you before and will certainly use you again.

Beautiful staff, a lovely welcome, an interesting menu, delicious cuisine and a smart and well managed restaurant. Don't miss It!

Started using this restaurant about a year ago and has become my favourite Indian.. tried a few different dishes and all have been great and also very good service and nice atmosphere

Highly recommend! Visiting for the weekend and saw all the great reviews, very happy to have picked here. Curries were phenomenal and so flavourful. Would 100% recommend and come back if we’re in the area. Thank you

My wife and I are very into good curries and have visited some of the top restaurants in the UK and this place topped the lot by a mile. The food was divine, the atmosphere perfect and the service was beyond description. They timed everything perfectly and even thought to offer an ice bucket for the wine. They aren't licenced but happily allow you to bring your own which saves a huge chunk on the bill.

Bustling atmosphere, A bit loud for me but understandable given the time of year. Extremely polite servers. Great food. Will definitely go again when It is quieter.

Very worthy of the Grade 5 (Excellent) rating.... The food, service and pricing was EXCELLENT. Everyone in our party were very happy with their meals. Well done Little India!!

Lovely place to eat out. Really tasty food and great customer service!

Initially, we chose a different restaurant in Penzance, based on the fact that they had more reviews than Little India. Well, what a mistake! We walked past, and the inside was completely different to what we had seen online, so we decided to give it a go. It had been refurbished and looked clean, modern and stylish. Service was attentive, welcoming, and friendly from the moment we walked through the door. They were quick, confident, and professional. Food was served quickly and was delicious. Decent selection to choose from. The ambience was lovely, with comfortable lighting and seating. Whilst the food was lovely, the service and staff were what really shone through. I would have expected more reviews considering it was so busy. If you are looking for an Indian restaurant, don't hesitate to visit Little India.

Very good staff great service and amazing food♥️

We stayed at Premier inn which is opposite Little India. We had dinner there one evening. Great food and service. Waiter was very friendly. Very clean. We love curry, and would highly recommend Little India Penzance. Will visit again next time we are down that way.

Oh my, what a lovely evening. Three generations (from 10 to 75) eating out for a big birthday and we were treated with some much care and attention. The food was delicious. The recommendations were spot on. Nothing was too much trouble and lots of smiles. Couldn't fault it. Thank you.

Best authentic Indian cuisine around it really is great!!.. Amazing food And just a really great place over all !!..😋😋

Yesterday I Came with my mum and my dad and there friends they said the curry’s is the best in the world. The staff are amazing and welcoming and friendly and very kind the Curry’s is really yummy and delicious curry’s are best the staff did us proud I really Recommend little Indian please go to little Indian restaurant they do best chicken korma in the world. from Victoria 🙂🙂🙂

Service was slow, even though restaurant was only half full, food was not good hardly restaurant standards

This was a really nice place to come and eat. The food was absolutely amazing and arrived quickly. The atmosphere is kinda strange, it's quite loud and echoey and could do with some sound proofing. It's a shame they can't serve alcohol but I understand you can bring your own. Be careful when you say yes to the poppadoms and dips to start with, they make it seem like they're complimentary- but you very much have to pay for them. Would come again.

My partner and I have both worked food service and I currently manage in customer service. We are very understanding and empathetic of these jobs but this was my worst experience in some time. Long wait for everything and the place wasn’t full and I saw no takeout orders leaving. We had butter chicken and garlic chili chicken, both favorites of ours. The chicken in both of our dishes was very, very dry and the sauce bland. The chili chicken had no discernible garlic and almost no chili, basically no spice. The rice was ok. One of the sides never even arrived. We had to ask why and they said the kitchen was backed up. Why did we have to ask? They should have volunteered this info when we ordered. I know they were having a bad night but they had so many employees walking or standing around, not even trying to inform tables of the situation. I saw several tables leave as a result. Close to the end of our meal an employee (not sure if they were a manger or not) came to our table and gave a half hearted apology. Very disappointing experience. Our server and host were very nice but lack of communication with you guests is just plain negligent. This place is clearly mismanaged or at least on that night. Will not be back or recommend to friends or family when visiting.

Food is just average and nothing taste like lndia.

Very good food and service couldn’t ask for anything better.

Unfortunately, there is nothing lower than 1 star for this horrible restaurant. The food that I ordered was disgusting! The chicken was almost invisible in the sauce made of 400g of tomato sauce drowned in 1 kg of white sugar. In this place, they don't know what an authentic "Indian" cousin is. They can only survive in Penzance because there is almost no competition and people have very limited options for eating out. The manager is arrogant and rude. When I told him that the food served in his restaurant was completely unhealthy and dangerous for certain categories of people with health issues he started to shout at me. Clearly, this was his tactic for defending himself for the scarce quality of the food served in this so-called "restaurant". Currently, this restaurant has a rating of 3.9 on Google (already very low) but in my view, it should have been even lower. The most horrible restaurant and food experience in all my life!!! I requested a refund for the horrible experience I had, the manager told me that the refund was processed on the same day but after almost 10 days no refund at all. I raised a dispute with my bank.

Unbelievable. Very quickly service,very friendly staff. They treat you like you are King. I never had such experience. Prices are very good. Definitely recommend.

Food was great! Best Indian food place in Penzance! Kahib did a good job serving our table.

This is an unlicensed restaurant (but you can bring your own alcohol in to drink). The main course was very generous and certainly sizzling when it arrived and I enjoyed the food. The service was also good too

We were a large group of walkers and the restaurant were extremely welcoming and really looked after us. We had a large variety of food, and every dish was absolutely delicious. The staff were so friendly, and if we needed extra rice it was brought quickly. We can’t recommend it enough, in our opinion it is the premier Indian restaurant in Penzance. Well done Little India!

A friendly pleasant and clean restaurant, and very very busy. So be sure to book if you need a table, they are quite often full. If you require a takeaway then walk ins are catered for. You can order on their website which is very easy and provides a collection time for you. You can park outside for short pickups or in the wharfeside car park just 100 yds away. The food is excellent, but not the cheapest. I thought the £1 charge per poppadom very small sauce pot was excessive. The yogurt mint was obviously from a much larger catering container and was not worth the £1 charge. The chopped spicy onion was a tiny pot and consisted of 99% onion and minimal other ingredients. Get your act together little India I am sure your chef could make these himself to a much higher quality and they are letting you down compared to your main meals. PS bring your own alcohol only soft drinks sold on site.

The service here was 10/10 ! All of our food came within 10min of ordering and was delicious! The staff were very friendly and attentive. Lovely atmosphere and great food !

Order takeaway, quick friendly service Unfortunately Chicken Dansak the overpowering flavour was garlic, but chicken was tender. Tikka Masala was very sweet. Rice, Naan bread and poppadoms were nice.

Had a Dinner with my Friends, we all enjoyed the food, portions size are Good, spices are ok food can be made more spicy, but no worries we all enjoyed. Service was good.

Boole the day before online. Table ready when turned up food and service first class, even when I queried the bill. Top job 👍👍

First visit here for 2 years as don't live locally. Excellent fresh tasty dishes and good value. Friendly efficient staff. Particularly enjoyed king prawn with puri, gosht (lamb) kalia and vegetable jalfrezi. Generous portions. May bring your own alcohol. Strongly recommended.

Waiter was chewing gums while taking order. Food was very poor. Would never recommend to any Indian. Was a 1st & Last time here. Waste of money!

Wonderful restaurant with good quality tasty food and great hosts. Food was halal & spicy as well like we asked. Service was good too but as the staff were busy all the time, it was a little difficult to speak to someone initially. However, one of our hosts Milad really made us feel at home, catering to a few requests of ours such as ensuring the dishes were "desi-level" spicy and also conversing with us and making us feel very welcome. Overall the restaurant has tasty food at a reasonable price and the staff are excellent. Would definitely recommend. 😊

Food fantastic. Best I have ever had.

We went for a birthday dinner and turned out to be a wrong decision. We ordered chicken Biryani which was burnt and felt like eating crunchy rice. Chef didn’t know how to make raita either. Service wasn’t great either as they forgot to get the coke we ordered but didn’t forget to add to the bill and had to remind them to correct the bill. Very overpriced restaurant. Though at end we were offered to not bill the biryani and asked to choose anything on the house but we were fully disappointed to try anything else.

10% service was not communicated before we placed the order. Food was extremely oily and tasted bad. Staff did not adhere to allergies communciated at the time of order. Worst experience.

Applied 10% service charge without communicating beforehand. Food tasted bad, extremely oily. They served food with items that I was allergic to, even when I had informed of my allergies. Charged for complimentary papaddum and chutney as well, when we had confirmed whether it was complimentary or not. Worst experience.

- Very good Environment. - Food were good overall. - They were really helpful and informed that we left our phone near to the table. Improvement: - Raita is not like raita at all, it was not watery. - Service guys need to be prominent on the politenees on language (usually forget to add 'please' in the sentence). - Add everything into one menu - Mostly people come in budget constraint, please help them to know what would be the best for new comers. This will improve a lot in reviewing the restaurant.

HALAL! great, authentic and quality food with amazing service!

Excellent Bangladeshi dishes available. Recommend the Nuakali dish, Achari chicken!

Poor service and behaviour from the staff. Not preferable

Worst service ever.. Won't be going there again.. Don't go with a group

Made the mistake of visiting this restaurant. Anyone looking for Indian food, this is definitely NOT the place for it. The food was flavorless, sub-standard and nothing like Indian food at all. e.g.vegetarian biryani had big pieces of cabbage, zucchini and mushroom. Very disappointed. Service is also average, but ambience of the place is good.

I enjoyed my curry and will go back. As I live 300 miles away, it won't be soon. Worth a visit.

I would definitely recommend this restaurant. We had to most fantastic meal there last night. 6 dishes, all different, and every one a winner. Perfect service, all the staff polite and friendly

Very good Tasty curries Byo which is great Very friendly and attentive staff

Below expectation. Poor service. Will not recommend.

The food is fantastic but everything I order a drink which is 2.90 it never arrives even when I left a note.

Visited early evening 27/1/ 23 after making a booking on line for 8 and confirmed. On arrival unable to find booking, lucky party was only 6 and managed to find a table. If the party was 8 no table??. Table service was slow but takeaways were flying out the door. Always a but, yet again the food was first class shame about the service. Have always enjoyed food here over the years and would return again. There is no alcohol licence but no problem taking your own.

Absolutely disgusting, it was oily, burnt & broken poppadoms, missing items which were not replaced or refunded. Worst takeaway Balti ever had, usual takeaway is Sultanz in Camborne & will stick with them even though it means travelling.

Delicious food and you can take your own alcohol!

Excellent food with great Indian spices flavour.enjoyed truly.

Great food and attentive service, really nice staff, thank you for a great evening

I have experienced many fine, delicious meals here. Consistently good and well above average. The staff are welcoming and lovely. Advisable to book at busy times although it is a large restaurant. Highly recommended.

We ordered take away to be delivered on Saturday night 19th it’s started off by being just over 30mins late kind of understandable being a Saturday evening, but when the food turned up it was all cold missing papadams but us the pickles so I rang them up too let them know they had forgotten something I spoke to the girl on the phone and she put me on hold for about 5mins to come back with a reply the reply was next time you order we will give you them for free. My reply was but I probably wouldn’t order again and the quality wasn’t that good she just laughed and carried on laughing so food was poor the service was poor and there just taking extra cash off you and find it funny. Would definitely stay away
