Loved it. Sometimes I think we order a lot so an extra poppadoms would be nice but honestly, the food and service is amazing. Highly recommend!

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....

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!!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Have enjoyed Wilstead Tandoori for 6-8 years, but unfortunately since new takeover in past 1 year the quality is seriously degrading. I’m one to not judge on one bad curry but after numerous ones over the last 6 months alone I thought it was worth a review. On the hope this constructive feedback will drive some improvements. Lastnight our order as an example was incomplete, the Naan bread was tough and wife & daughter couldn’t eat it, rice containers 25% empty so where I’d normally split a rice between our 2 daughters, this wasn’t possible. The chips were hard, hollow and tasteless. Mixed grill starter was swimming in grease, unfortunate I missed a further review below who had a similar bad experience with that dish. On calling up to challenge the missing item, they told me it was a bad signal, but they didn’t feel the need to check the order back with me ?!? They also agreed to send a new rice. Upon getting the missing item and new rice, the rice was wrong again !!! My wife on her birthday was left watching us eat our meal to have hers 40mins later, with rice she wasn’t keen on and cold naan. Hope situation gets better..
