Mahan Finest Indian Takeaway in Dartford

This is truly an asset to Joydens Wood area. It's the best Indian Takeaway we have used and the food is always delicious due to the experienced chef. They take orders by phone and offer a collection and a delivery service. Extremely pleasant, polite and friendly service with reasonable food prices. Very clean and comfortable waiting area complete with large screen TV, newspapers and magazines to look at whilst waiting for your order.

Amazing Indian takeaway! The food will stimulate your taste buds beautifully what ever you order. We do not know how the Team at Mahan Joyden woods accomplish this as everyones palate is different. We would highly recommend Mahan Indian takeaway in Joyden woods!

Was sceptical about all the high reviews. Ordered a Chicken Khazana and Butter Chicken with pilau rice and papadoms. Hands down the best local Indian takeaway. Really enjoyed both meals, not too spicy, tasted really fresh. Recommend anyone trying this for first time to give it a go. Was absolutely delicious. Well done to Chefs at Mahan. Will definitely be back.

Great service and always on time

So lucky to have this gem on our doorstep. Regular customers of the Mahan and the food is always delicious and great quality.

Had the family round this evening, 6th February, for a meal. We ordered from Mahan and no one was disappointed. It was a very enjoyable experience from phoning up to order through to our food being delivered. Couldn't fault the service or the quality of the food. The food was amazing and was delivered hot and delicious. Will definitely be ordering from here again and I would recommend Mahan to everyone.

The best Indian food around, other Indian places can only look to match the Mahan, nothing can beat it. I won't have a bad word said about this place, I highly recommend the Mahan👌👍

Always a great curry from Mahan!!

Great service, with even better curry. Would throughly recommend the chicken jalfrezi.

Honest review. Mediocre food, over priced. We have had better food and service at other Indian food establishments that are more accommodating and reasonably priced . We will not be returning customers.

gutted about this place. I actually love the food but almost £50 for two curry 1 rice 1 starter and popadoms is absurd. rapidly loosing interest

I ordered a railway lamb and paneer tikka achari. I am Anglo Indian but I can’t cook Indian food. The railway lamb tasted like something my dad would make (sadly passed away now). It was delicious. Tasty without being fiery hot. The paneer dish included large chucks of paneer - very filling. Food arrived hot! I would highly recommend this take away restaurant. I was so impressed I wanted to call and praise the chef. I hope this review will do!

I've used Mahan for some time now, I choose between them and a local restaurant. Placed my order on a Saturday night and was told the wait was 1 hour 10 minutes. No problem with that but it was annoying that the restaurant kept leaving my phone call to deal with other issues. Arrived to pick up my food and had to wait an extra 30 minutes as it wasn't ready, lots of people waiting for food which isn't normal. Drove home to find 2 main meals were missing and my food was cold. The restaurant were very quick to apologise and food arrived in 15 mins. But the saddest part was the food just wasn't very nice, and that's a shame as I've always had a good meal there. Something was very wrong last night and unfortunately I won't be using them after this experience.

Best take away by far in the Bexley area, really great flavours. Would really recommend.

The best Indian takeaway in the BEXLEY area. I visit there regularly and the place is always neat and clean. The food is exceptional, cooked fresh and to my taste. Great customer service

Tried this place for the first time for takeaway, and it was great! The ordering process was smooth, the staff was friendly, and the food was excellent. Highly recommend giving them a try!

Beautiful food served by lovely people.

Food was not good. Reheated lamb tasted dreadful. Overpriced and poor quaility food. Would not order again. I will await "your not a customer of ours reply" well i am a customer and i collected last week.

My first time ordering from Mahan and my meal was one of the best curries I’ve had in a long time.

Absolutely delicious! My recent takeaway experience from Mahan exceeded all expectations. The food was excellent—flavorful, fresh, and perfectly cooked. Every dish was bursting with authentic Indian flavors that left me craving more. The service was prompt and friendly, making the entire experience enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!

Great food, excellent customer service.

Amazing food, nothing else compares Never been disappointed. Highly recommend

The food at Mahan is the best around, especially the lamb. The service is always great, would definitely recommend.

Amazing food. Delicious flavours. I have been coming here for years and I highly recommend the duck tikka passanda, duck tikka, chicken and cheese rolls and the aubergine bhaji (brinjal bhaji).

Best Indian takeaway around.nsp good that we wish they had a restaurant!

First time we’ve used them last night and definitely will not be the last! Ordered online and spoke on the phone to confirm; it was delivered within the hour food was excellent, everything well packaged. One of the best we’ve had. Thank you.

Very poor. Chicken tikka meat very hard. Like it was bought in presliced. Paratha was frozen one that hadn't been cooked enough. Very tasteless. Disappointing after reading all the good reviews

I've been coming here for many years. Sy as an owner has done an amazing job with the Mahan, the last thing anyone expected in Joydens Wood was a takeaway Indian restaurant! Friendly guy and always happy to chat. Having just demolished a Lamb Naga with Peshwari Naan, it's probably the best takeaway I've had in a long time. The Restaurant itself is always spotless and well maintained.

Excellent food and service every time. Cannot fault it and wouldn’t go anywhere else

Excellent takeaway, never disappoints! Best king prawn bhuna around ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

The best Indian take away I have ever had! Whenever we have a takeaway we order from here and it has always been excellent. The food and service is an amazing! Would highly recommend. Well done Mahan, thank you.

Great food, good service, employ local delivery drivers no uber eats … 👏

Ivo delivered our takeout tonight I accidentally gave him £60 instead of £40 without realising and he knocked on my door with the extra £20 and I would have never known a true honest gentleman!!

Easily the best Indian Takeaway locally. Great food, it always arrives piping hot. The chicken dhansak is off the charts.

Lovely fresh food. Would order again without hesitation.

Have ordered food from mahan for 2 years now , everytime it's delicious particularly railway lamb 😋, karahi , or the moghul .always on time and hot I don't use any other takeaway

Food is lovely buy the delivery time is far too long and ridiclious unless you phone at 5pm it takes up to 2 hours sometimes. Just not quick enough. Shame ! won't be using again now.

One of the best takeaway around

Usually a good take away. Won't order here again. Chicken very hard, chicken tikka dish obviously not tikka. Bit disappointed as this is supposed to be the best indian take away in the area.

Just had a takeaway curry from Curry Mahan in Joydens Wood, Bexley. The best curry I have had in a long time. Lots of chicken & vegetables. The rice was very moorish too. Really great service from the staff and owners… will always choose Curry Mahan. Thank you.

We've been ordering from Mahan for over 10 years now and they have never failed to deliver! The food is of a very high quality, delicious and worth every penny. Sahidi and the team are also brilliant - so welcoming and friendly. We always collect (because we are so close and it is quicker) and the reception area is super clean and tidy. Joyden’s Wood are lucky to have such an amazing takeaway on our doorstep!

Always good food highly recommend

The best Indian takeaway, the food is amazing, excellent service and friendly staff, wouldn't go anywhere else.

The best takeaway in the area by far. Always arrives hot and delicious. Delivered by a friendly face. Our go-to when having a get together with friends or a night in with the family. We love, love, love your food. Thank you Mahan.

We now live in JW where the Mahan is located, but previously we used to travel from Bexley Village where there is an abundance of Indian restaurants. The Mahan is hands down the best in the area! Great portion sizes, great taste and great customer service. Highly recommended 👌

The best curry ever, it’s difficult not to go here every night!

The best Indian takeaway in the area by far. The consistent quality of the food is the key that has been excellent since they opened.

Always delicious, fresh food! Our favourite take away!

Best Indian Takeaway I've ever tasted. Fantastic variety of freshly made food. Highly recommend.

We LOVE this Indian. Hands down the best Indian take away we have tried in Bexley. We order from here regularly and it is our go to take away. From start to finish the experience is a delight. You can order online for convenience or over the phone. The staff are always really polite, helpful and friendly. The food is delicious, well cooked, excellent quality and every bite is an incredible explosion of flavours. I cannot praise this place enough. A definite must try.

Our favourite great food great service 😊👍

We had a menu through the door quite a while ago. So glad we ordered, it was DELICIOUS.

Amazing food amazing service the best Indian I have ever had and will not go any where else fast delivery and food is always hot

Excellent service and even better food never been disappointed

We love the food from the Mahan, which was recommended to us by a friend. Chicken tikka biryani is always very good, comes with a vegetable curry - what’s not to like?

Award winning take away curry. Perfect everytime

Loved Dupiaza and keema rice on my first visit. Looking forward to visit again!

When we moved to Bexley, the Mahan Indian takeaway was recommended to us and we haven’t been disappointed. The food is always good quality, and although the delivery time is a bit longer at the weekends, it’s well worth the wait. My favourite dish is chicken tikka biryani, it’s always good, and comes with a lovely vegetable curry. Can highly recommend this takeaway.

We thought we would try an Indian Takeaway that we had read good reviews of, and we were pleasantly surprised at how tasty the curries were compared to the ones in our area of Swanley Which we normally use, and the standard of taste is beyond and above our normal Indian takeaway’s, we will definitely be using them again and have recommended them to friends and family

Ordered from here last night for the first time...Very friendly & professional staff, amazing food and very fair pricing! I will deffinitely be ordering from here again, would highly recommend!

Top quality food, well worth a slightly long delivery time. Food arrived hot, tasty and on schedule. Certainly the best take-away in the area.

Delicious and generous portions. Definitely one to try. Delivered too without going through a third party company.

We just eaten our take away we normally use our local one but decided to try . It was delicious so tasty will use again food was hot delivered on time

We have been ordering from mahan for well over a year now the food is great. Never had any problems with our orders

Excellent Indian takeaway away. Authentic and great tasting dishes with large portion sizes. Ready for collection on time. Recommended.

The best Indian take away food I've ever had. The Mahan is a smart, classy and clean take-away. Never even had and average dish let alone a poor one! Si and his family and staff are very friendly and adhere to the highest standards. Also very supportive of local charities. I wholeheartedly recoommend this winderful place to eat.

Amazing food and very friendly staff

I used Mahan some years ago and was impressed then. What with COVID etc I am embarrassed to say that i forgot they were that good. Living in Swanley Village the Shaad was very convenient but has since closed. Whilst we like the Clove restaurant for an eat in, the takeaway options in Swanley are not so good. Following a disastrous and quite simply inedible takeaway from Namaste which we threw in the bin, we have returned to Mahan and how much better the food is. Literally everything from the meat dishes to the rice, naan and poppodums has been nothing short of excellent. If nothing changes we will be regular customers, even if it is a 30 minute round trip, because it's worth it!

Lovely food with a wide array of dishes on offer. Would recommend to anyone in the area 100%

First time of ordering food and tasted of high quality ingredients used and excellent flavours

Brilliant, served food in 20 mins as a rapid takeaway 👍

Such a lovely Indian real shame they have closed 😭😭😭😭

We've had food from here quite a lot over the last few years and there's never been a problem; was really pleased to see them reopen after a brief shutdown. However, just a word of caution - I rung at 9.02pm the other Sunday to order food for collection (thought it would save time as we're about 40 mins away for delivery and they close at 10) and was bluntly told that "the kitchen's closed. We've been very busy today and sold out of everything so we've stopped serving and can't help you"....so if you're ordering on a Sunday you might want to get in early so that you don't miss out! The food has always been delicious here so please give them a try, but don't leave it until 'last orders'!!

Really enjoy our food from Mahan, our dishes are always very tasty and neither too dry or too watery as I’ve found with some other Indian restaurants.

trying to take more than one order at a time clearly to busy not caring about the customer who was about to spend in excess of £100 with them jumping from phone to phone call that’s how mistakes have happened to us in the past if people want there food they will wait I said do you want my order with that he got very abusive and said I apologised do you want your food or not and then said infact I don’t want to serve you ! You know what I’m glad I didn’t order I was trying to be supportive of a local business maybe I will Go to a business that cares about there customers and wants my money

Enjoyed a curry on a Wednesday night from Mahan, Great service, quick and superb flavour. The best in the area by far!

Always fantastic food! Even under the additional pressure of Mothers Day and restaurants closed in the current unprecedented times quality doesn’t waver, still the best fresh cooked Indian cuisine available.

Had a takeaway Saturday night . Was very busy but no excuse for food quality . Food had little taste and was not very hot . Considering £55 cost I expected more . Not any complementary popodoms . Will not visit again

Had another brilliant take away meal tonight from Mahan on Summerhouse Drive Bexley.The flavours are delicious and the quality of the meat is superior to other places. All served with impeccable courtesy and friendliness. You an park directly outside if collecting or they will deliver.

Ordered from here twice can never see why so many good reviews always some very chewy chicken and vegetables curry looks like it's from a tin very dissatisfied would not recommend.

Easily the best local curry house. Fantastic service also.

Ordered a take-away tonight after a recommendation and really pleased that we did. Absolutely delicious. Hot, tasty food. Loads of succulent meat in our dishes. Everything freshly made. Highly recommend. Friendly staff too.

I ordered a takeaway for the very first time from this place and I must say the food is absolutely fantastic!!!! The food is authentic Indian food and it tastes very nice. The chicken tikka madras is a must for everybody. Thank you for the lovely tasty food. I will be back for some more

I’ve been visiting Mahan for the past couple of years now and am always pleased with the quality and service. The dishes are always fresh and tasty, and empty plates are seen all round. I tend to opt for a hotter dish like a madras or vindaloo which are always cooked well and are very enjoyable. Everyone In my family enjoys it and I recommend it to everyone who asks for the best local Indian takeaway!

Best Indian take away we have used. The award winning standard and excellent hygiene rating are what attracted us to Mahan. The food is amazing and the staff very polite and friendly. I’m glad to have made this discovery. We won’t go anywhere else

Can not fault this place, tonight i asked for a surprise as there was to many good dishes on the menu. Syed, Thankyou you got it on point tonight. That Garlic Chicken with naga chillies 🌶 was exactly what I needed. We are always looked after and prefer the collection as it’s nice to have a chat with you. Looking forward to our mother’s day meal. 🙂

Great Indian takeaway. Never had a bad meal

I have had many takeaways from Mahan over the years .The one thing you always get is good quality food.The food is always good.You can adjust the spice level on request.It's not the cheapest but I guess you get what you pay for.Will do continue to use

Have been using these guys for a few years and you expect to get a bad one sometimes every so often but have to congratulate these guys never had a bad meal, service is always good. Highly recommend.

Great tasting food however prices are high and quantity poor.

Just beautiful food lovely people

Won’t be ordering again, slowly gone down hill.Lamb dansak was tough as old boots and Bombay potato was hard too.Had to the throw it away waste of money was really looking forward to it.

So not a restaurant review as such..Ordering / collection services were fine to excellent, the food was hot and portions generous.But it was all rather ordinary- spices were there, but only just and when Indian food is becoming more radical and regional Mahan seems to be a toned down version of the standard 1980's Indian meal.It's comfort food, it's not going to cause upset, but somehow it's lacking edge, and the result is boring. Adequate, but no more.Sorry

Been using Mahan for 5 years since moving to the area, over the last 18 months have been disappointed and haven’t used them for over 8 months now as meals had varied in quality so much.Gave it another go last night but again very disappointed.Such a shame as they are local, maybe due to a change in their chef !!

Love the curry from this place. Takes a long time to arrive but that’s because it’s so good. The delivery guy we usually have is so so friendly. Best Indian delivery.

Very nice food..First visit and will go back for more.

Not much to say really on this restaurant, was a typical Indian and spicy but not great. Ok atmosphere but a bit too manic staff were ok but not great! Much the same as any other Indian!

I have been going here for my Indian Takeaway for a little over a year. The premises are extremely clean and tidy. The waiting area is very smart with comfortable sofas, relaxing chairs, a large screen TV and daily newspapers and magazines. The staff are polite and very friendly and welcome you by name as you enter. Orders are taken quickly using the latest computer technology communicating between the counter and the kitchen. As I live close by, I always wait for my order but there is a fast and free delivery service for those unable to go to the shop themselves. The food is consistently delicious and we are most fortunate to have such a good takeaway in the area.

Had two takeaways now and the food is outstanding! Food arrived on time and was piping hot. New to the area and best takeaway curry I have ever had.

Very good food Best takeaway for moles
