Malabar in Bedford

Beautiful food again. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommend.

No point in review never get a reply

Keep it up malabar lovely food

lovely food will order again.thanks.

Dahl was really lovely. Ty. Driver great. Chicken was a bit ' dry' .

Quality of the food was not up to the heights of previous orders. The order was 20 minutes late. I hope my next order from Malabar will be much improved.

Normally excellent but really poor tonight. Arrived late and was cold and the order was not completely fulfilled. Phoned to log a complaint and the restaurant were completely disinterested and unapologetic.

Great delivery, driver came right to the door. Food was delicious - lamb tikka jalfrezi had plenty of lamb, peppers, chillies, onions - perfect balance of ingredients. Not sure if bhuna was chicken tikka as stated, but the chicken was still nice and there was plenty of it. King prawns were lovely and plenty of them. Great portions of meat, thank you for a tasty meal.

not sure why they gave the original time of 18 15 to 18 35, obviously not attainable. A new time was set 18 45 to 19 10 this was also not met. Curry was great though, a further more realistic time would have been nice

There are no good curry takeaways in Bedford and this is OK... Not amazing. Quality has definitely changed but it's not terrible, as others are. Also someone mentioned about onion bhajis and ours, which we purchased, also contained 3. We never receive them complimentary and didn't know other people did....

First time ordering great food and delivery came v quick defo order again

Great food as always! I was mistaken about portion size Onion Bajis being reduced too, so that that was a bonus!

food is always excellent here, but sad they've reduced the portion size of onion bajis from 4 to 3.

We’ve been ordering from Malabar for some time now and honestly love it so much. It’s now our comfort food and go to place. We absolutely love the chilli chicken fry mix starter and the butter mossala chicken. Also the fresh naans are a big must! We probably order from Malabar atleast twice a month, that’s how good it is. Definitely try it out, you’re missing out otherwise!!

always good food.never had a bad one. Will continue to use this as is my favourite Indian takeaway

Fantastic food as always, has to be the best Indian takeaway in Bedford

First time ordering and even though it was 40 mins late (1 hour 40 total waiting time) the food was still piping hot and delicious. The app told us it was delayed too, so at least we knew. The driver was apologetic and gave us a free bottle of coke, plus Saturday night too, so it was all fine. Got the chicken korma and chicken Malaysia. Both tasted quite similar to be fair, both coconutty, but both tasted so good. Free onion bhajis too, for spending a certain amount, 4 of them, so great portion. Would order again!

So disappointed. We order pretty much every week and delivery is always reliable. Tonight: almost an hour late. We had ordered for a family member who had to leave without eating their food, because it was so late.

Delicious, hot, tasty and swift delivery! If I could give 10 stars Malabar would definitely receive them!

I’ve not ordered from here for awhile. Really pleased I did food was lovely and hot on arrival order something different what I normally would and loved it. No issues

Food was good, tasted and smelled amazing. Portion sizes were very good and good amount of meat in curry dishes, most places are quite stingy on that. have ordered from there twice and worth the price.

Great tasting food, quick delivery

Delicious tasting food. Value for money. Highly recommended. Thank you.

As usual the food is fantastic. Tasty clean curries. The Pathia is marvellous!

Very greasy and overly spicy, really disappointed as normally as great take away

Little longer than an hour overall wait time. Saying that due to the taste of the food and being Christmas, all is forgiven. Would definitely recommend to others.

Generous portions, but a little too oily and salty.

the food was very hot and tasty, meaning the little delay didn't matter at all. I woupd order from them again.

The food is always food Nice and hot

The best lamb jalfrezi in town would highly recommend. It’s 10/10 could eat it everyday!! And the lamb tikka biryani with with vegetable curry is absolutely delicious

Malabar is great, food is always delicious and the delivery usually at the start of the given delivery window.

Great food and great service as usual

Great service and great food too

Our food was a little late but we were kept informed. I don't mind waiting for delicious food and good value for money too. Thank you.

The order was slightly late, but I was informed in a timely manner, so no real problem there. The delivery guy was very apologetic. Now, the food was piping hot, absolutely delicious, well worth the wait, and represented good value for money. I will order again. 10 out of 10

Won’t take cards always some excuse,becoming over expensive food good Clearly don’t like paying tax

Usually love food from here but tonight, meat over cooked, food cold, bread undercooked, food running late.

Food excellent and received on time

Far !!!!To much salt in the chicken dish

Always superb food and service!

Absolutely delicious. Recommend 100% tasty!

Consistently reliable good quality food.

Clearly the beef was frozen, it came in thick lumps and it was cold in the middle, very disappointed, waste of money

Delicious chicken jalfrezi curry, very tasty and spicy, the naan is fresh and soft, and poppadoms are really good too.

Tasty, delivered hot. Still the best in Bedford

Best Indian takeaway we've had in a while! Thank you 😊

Food was absolutely gorgeous. Delivery driver very friendly. Highly recommend Malabar.

Great food always delivered on time and hot.

It had not arrived and no comments for now until the food is delivered again!!!!

Love it from here but they always forget my salad which is really annoying

Food very cold, clearly late as stood around waiting for courier

All was great, sadly rice for the Balti was not provided. Apart from that, all was good.

Again perfect , really love the food from here alway on time always hot and of course always tasty! Keep up the great work we love you!

Lovely mains - delicious sauce and generous portions. The rice was perfect and the naan was lovely. But the sag paneer side was a weird disappointment - dry and unseasoned and looked and tasted like it had been microwaved a couple of times. We will order again because the rest was very good. Shame about the paneer.

Foods were good and tasty 😋 our first time order

I have ordered from here on a number of occasions and never had a problem with the food or service, however, tonight was a different story! I had items missing from my order, when I contacted the restaurant I was rudely told that I was lying or that the driver must’ve removed items! I asked if they could please send me out the missing items or refund them when again I was told no and to contact Uber eats as it isn’t their problem even though the food is from their restaurant. The food that was received was extremely greasy and salty, which shows there’s been a big error in their kitchens. In future I advise not to be so rude to your customers and accuse them of lying as I will no longer return.

Really enjoyed our meal from Malabar definitely would order again

Nice food but forgot bombay aloo main dish getting refund from just eat so all good

Just tasted like it had been made the day before. Very disappointed.

Food arrived on time (I preordered before they were even open) Food arrived boiling hot and tasty as ever. Items were correct bar 1 thing which they corrected immediately and was delivered very quickly after I called in and they gave me an extra 2 poppadoms. Will always get my balti from malabar. Extremely tasty. Thank you

I have tried many restaurants locally but Malabar are above and beyond. Delivery is on time and food is always hot! More importantly the flavour of the food is incredible! You will not be disappointed! If just eat offered a 10 star rate I’d give Malabar 11! 💫

Containers are ALWAYS leaking and stain everything! There are no good curry houses in Bedford but malabar used to be the most edible. Quality has gone down hill over the years and rarely use now. How they improve

I ordered on the phone and it took me a long time to get the man on the other end to hear what I was saying. He was extremely slow and seemed very distracted. I ordered a vegetable biryani and received a vegetable curry – some sort of generic mixed veg with gravy!

My mother ordered from here. She very clearly asked for basmati rice and the genius on the other end could not grasp what that meant, instead he spoke vaguely about 'mushroom rice'. After much back and forth, my mother had to order 'plain rice' since he ostensibly failed to grasp anything else. Unsurprisingly, they completely messed up the order. A vegetable biryani was ordered and my mother informed me she instead received a rather poor tasting vegetable curry with gravy in its place. What an absolute shame, as this used to be a decent little takeaway. Avoid it, unless you want inaccurate orders and subpar food.

The driver cleared the job before he delivered the food, so I was thinking that delivered to the wrong house. Rang the restaurant. They told me it cleared the job before delivering. That’s it the end.

Fast delivery, hot and delicious.

Lovely food as always not bothered about 10 mins late could have eaten it all again

The food was not cooked properly. The meat was 70 percent only cooked

I ordered Saturday night using my saved details on just eat but didnt receive food as it was delivered to different address so I'm out of pocket by £30 and still hungry

Also had items missing from the order. This has happened several times now over the past few months. We have ordering every week for most of this year but will look at other options now

Food is always good quality and quantities

Totally lovely as always. Really love Malabar the food is amazing

As usual my favourite take away delivered a fab meal on time. Great.

Despite it being late, customer service was good, they advised me beforehand, food was tasty , one of the best curries I have had in a long time. Would definitely order again

As much we love the food from this takeout place, It seems like it slipping it’s standard. The consistency seems to be irregular. We bought over 30 quid worth a food and didn’t come with any free poppadum and salad that they used to do it before. I know the inflation is high for the restaurant but so is for the customer who is saving to try enjoy the best meal they can get from the take out. The bhaji lol the size is like a table tennis ball went from the size of Tennis ball to that. I think that’s us done, it’s been a couple of disappointing order. Cheers for the food that tasted better before.

The food was absolutely delicious, the quality is outstanding, and the delivery driver was very polite. The food was delivered a little later than originally estimated, however the restaurant notified me of the delay and kept me updated, and the food arrived hot, so all in all a great experience. Looking forward to ordering again

Ordered chicken tikka and it was more a lemon seasoning but the chicken was so dry

Food was spot on and delivered hot well done malabar A********

Order two masala dishes chicken and prawn. Both are sweet dishes. As per them masala is sweet dish but on their menu doesn't say that. Ruin my evening.

Always order from here, food has always been top class and order has never been wrong! Highly recommend!

As usual really hit, tasty and great!

As always food was lovely, well cooked and very tasty

Lovely food as always from malabar

As always amazing food ! Hot and delicious! Thank you so much for being amazing and our favourite Indian restaurant! Keep up the great work we love you!

Lovely Biryani and Passanda chicken. Garlic nan needed a bit more garlic but overall very good

Food was lovely and hot loved every bit of it

Food was nice but late, due to fasting breaking during ordering so not angry about that!

Always delicious and piping hot. My favourite place to order from.

Nice food but could do with a bit more spice.

Very bad food and experience will not order again. Food came in a taxi also so not sure what happened there.

Really enjoyed this meal. Wonderful. Thank you.

Beautiful food, my new favourite place

Best food ever ! As always hot :) great service thanks ❤️

Delivered fast, piping hot, and absolutely delicious.

Food was lovely but just needed to be a bit warmer as it was lukewarm. Maybe it was because it's cold outside.

My order was totally wrong So I orders lamb I got chicken I orders mango and lime dish and I got this really hot one I could hardly eat and I got normal rice instead of Pilau So whoever they have doing the orders needs to be reviewed good job I am not allergic to the things I didn’t order

Food was early and very hot and always tasty and worth the money 5 star food

Great food, highly recommended

As ever, great food, great service. Highly recommend. Have lost count how many times have ordered from here. Really enjoy. Thank you.

The butter chicken we ordered tasted different to how we always had. Other than that as a regular customer to Malabar, the food is decent
