Lounge India Chelmsford in Chelmsford

The food is terrific. However my friends and I have spent the last meal there after going each Friday since the opening of the restaurant due to the apparent manager on shift commenting to one of the group that he dud not like us asking for ' extra mints ' (£0.02p from the profit of a weekly meal of £108 to £111) and the false accusation of being sworn at which was not true as I was in the doorway departing and no such words were used even in any sense. If the manager had any concerns over the years we have been going surely a polite conversation on anything would have been adult over harbouring any resentment. This was the same manager who when we had finished dining flicked the lights on and off to show he wanted to close a few weeks ago and moaning from the bar 'I have a long journey ' over again just saying ' guys sorry we are closing in xxxx minutes would you mind hurrying up please' De escalating the matter by just being adult would have avoided this entirely and that is a great shame because the food is first class.

Excellent food and excellent service

Food superb atmosphere brilliant.

Recieved vouchers in the post for a complimentary bottle of wine when arriving and presenting voucher was told we must spend £100 to qualify which is not stipulated on the voucher. The food was nice but the service was awful will not be returning

Great place, lovely food and great staff

The best Indian food in Chelmsford.

Lovely food. Great service. Highly recommend

Always a great night, good food and professional service. Thank you!

A regular local for us. Always great service and great food

First time visiting lounge India, food was amazing, great staff very friendly. We will be back.

The restaurant is very dark had to use my phone camera to read the menu. The food was extremely sweet the waiter asked if everything was ok and I said honestly it both dishes were too sweet and the prawns were over cooked. His reply you ordered sweet dishes. A masala and Parthia ? Won’t be going back.

A group of friends and I had our first visit to Lounge India last week. The food was amazing, it was on another level to anything all 12 of us had ever experienced before. The service was excellent, they help you to choose and even customize dishes for you. I can honestly say that I for one won't go anywhere where else in future and are group are all ready planned our next trip.

Definitely my favourite Indian Restaurant in Chelmsford. Food is great with a good choice of classics and unusual dishes. I had the Shatkora Lamb which was perfect. Great service and free parking.

Really good food. The service was quick and friendly...BUT its got to be the most expensive curry I've ever had...easily 25-30% more than anything in the area. That could explain why the place was close to empty on a Friday night

Amazing food, staff and atmosphere. What more could you ask for. The staff are so lovely. Highly recommend and very family friendly.

Lovely quality food and the staff are very attentive.

Honestly, one of the bet Indian meals I've had in a while. 100% recommend.

Good food loads of it excellent. Good seating.

Great food bit pricey but it's good

Not like a typical Indian restaurant Better food & service Served on real china (not metal hot plates) Different dishes as well as those you are familiar with Very tasty 2 courses & 2 alcoholic drinks £45 pp with tip

we went here this evening - service was 5* - very friendly staff and nothing to much trouble - very nice people ☺️ the food is the best Indian I have ever had - it was stunning - me my partner and our 2 children loved it all - even one of them who is fussy loved the chicken tandoori - atmosphere was very pleasant - we will be back here again with out a shadow of a doubt - Thank you indian Lounge 🤗

Indians rejoice! Finally, a properly spiced BIR restaurant.

Beautiful decor, plates, table setting etc. Food was lovely, portions big.

Great food, service was very good and good pricing

Food was very good, service was good, group of 11 of us, portions were a good size, plenty of beer flowing, will mark it 8/10.

They try to rush you apart from that it was worth the visit

I thought it was incredible. About 20% higher price than competitors but worthwhile

Super yummy. Amazing service. Highly recommend!

Great food but very expensive, they need to reveiw their prices if they want to remain in buisness.

Very polite people lovely food always great coming here

The food was great. Service was great. Atmosphere was great.

Been here twice now and cannot fault the place, food is lovely, service has always been great. Definitely our new local for a nice Indian meal

We visit quite a bit and enjoy the food. Modern and clean.

Food great but very expensive Indian, place was empty probably due to price's.

Omg it so amazing the food was amazing and I will tell everyone about it and I will be coming back again and is lovely place

Slow service on a busy (full) night - Main order not taken until after starters consumed, an hour after arriving still no food on the table. When it arrives, the food is excellent. Not sure if they need a bigger kitchen, more chefs or a smaller diner count to make the service more acceptable.

Quite expensive, food wasnt very good, it didn't have a lot of favour.

This was my first visit. Everything was lovely. Food was delicious. Hope to go back very soon.

Very pleasant experience lovely kind and helpful staff food was excellent 👌

Average nothing special quite expensive

We had an excellent meal last night. It had an interesting menu but also had the usual choices. The flavours of the food were so good and the presentation was brilliant. I would recommend this restaurant and I look forward to returning soon. I recommend the Lounge India Special.

Excellent food with interesting chef's specials

Having ordered from this place several times from the takeaway, I expected a fantastic meal and had high expectations when dining in the restaurant. However, I could not have been more disappointed. Upon ordering drinks, the waiter brought over the wrong order. Upon asking him to change it to what we actually ordered, he did not acknowledge it. Twice. When trying to rectify the issue, they still messed up the order. When the food came, it was oily and greasy and overly salted. Generally, it was all bland. The Tandoori Mixed grill was lukewarm and in some areas, completely cold. It was definitely a microwave job and it definitely did not have a hint of a Tandoori flavour. In fairness to the staff they did take this item off of the bill, however after this, they proceeded to ignore us whilst we tried to get the bill and leave. Upon getting the bill, low and behold, they gave us the wrong bill too. The wait staff to put it plainly were dreadful and were clearly untrained.

First time here. Maybe our expectations was too high, we found the staff was not very welcoming as we had hoped for and felt we was rushed out because they was abit abrupt cleaning table while your talking and even scanned our card for us to pay so was abit taken by that lol. I'm sure they never meant anything by it and is a learning curve for there business though. Food is decent no denying that but in all honesty it's very pricey, London prices rather than local. I get they are trying to make a living and cost of living has gone up etc but competitors are substantially cheaper and they need to build a portfolio first. I would give them a second chance and come back as its very local to me but I will also be sticking to my usual restaurant as it's just ticking more boxes at the moment

We always have a fantastic experience when we come here. The food is absolutely delicious and high quality. Also fairly large portions, I always end up completely stuffed. The staff are helpful and friendly.

A fantastic evening enjoyed by the whole family. Gorgeous food, lovely atmosphere and attentive staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Came out feeling very relaxed. Our first visit but will definitely be back! And would recommend.

Beautiful decor and fabulous service. Extensive menu choices. Delicious dishes, everything we ordered was really tasty and fresh. Have visited multiple times and always great. Would recommend a visit - ensure to book a table on a weekend as it gets very busy!

Excellent food excellent service. Well worth a visit

When the restaurant is busy, you may need to wait. However, when you get your order, it is delicious. Wise to book.

Mediocre nothing fancy but decent food try the royal dishes

Beautiful decor, attentive staff and fabulous food, served immaculately. Great price, a superb evdning, I can't wait to go back. Best Indian restaurant I've been to in many years.

The food is really good. However it is very pricey, It was not busy which may be a sign of the current economic climate and the high prices.

I loved the place. The food was exellent, one of the best I have ever tasted. The only down side is that I felt it was very expensive, £100 for 2 and not going ovef the top on drinks etc. Maybe its the norm these days, we dont get out much being OAP's.

Lovely food,nice decor great selection menu

3rd takeaway from here and it's still wonderful, great portions and flavour, can't beat it.

First takeaway from this relatively new restaurant. Staff were very welcoming, helpful and professional. I made the order through their app and made the order about 5:00pm and was offered a time to collect. I chose 6:45pm. The restaurant is only a mile or so from my house. I arrived at 6:45 and left with my food 2 minutes later. The quality of the food was outstanding. One of the best Indian meals I have had for a while. Will be returning. Very impressed.

Very nice meal with efficient service. Staff were very pleasant and keen to ensure we satisfied.

Pretty damn good. We will go again. A slight mix up with the order, but quickly rectified by the polite staff. A good buzz inside. I enjoyed it.

I would say this is the best Indian food in Chelmsford. Eaten here twice and had 1 takeaway, food consistently amazing, especially King prawn dansak. Service good even on a busy night and very classy decor.

Excellent all round can be a bit expensive for its location

Great food and service for a large family table, a brilliant evening.

Let down by very poor service again. This was the second time I have visited and each time the service has been very poor. We waited 2 hours to be served our main course. No real apology was given and no response to a complaint email. Such a shame as the food is lovely.
