Mall Road Indian Kitchen in Castle Point

Great as always. Excellent food and great service. Nice and warm as well.😀

Wonderful atmosphere, excellent service. The food is amazing. My favourite Indian, so much better than the regular curry houses. Be adventurous, there is so much lovely food on the menu.

Amazing food (as always), but the heating needed to be turned up a bit. Aside from that, soot on!

Stopped here for the first time last night with my daughter. She wasn't sure about one of the dishes she was choosing so they brought the chef out to explain what it was ! Very clean , very tidy, excellent service and lovely food. Definitely recommend.

Had a takeaway. Amazing food ! Couldn’t be happier!

Our first visit and definitely Not our last... what a fabulous restaurant. The food was delicious the staff terrific the chef wonderful and the surprise birthday cake amazing! A gem of a place so happy we found it. GO don't hesitate if you want fresh tasty food with a very warm atmosphere GO! Thank you Mall Road 😘

We visited at the recommendation of friends and were certainly not disappointed. A warm welcome, an attractive interior and an interesting menu were just first impressions. The food was an enticing mix of traditional favourites and intriguing new dishes. Clay baked aubergines anyone? Slow baked beetroot and lamb perhaps? Everything was beautifully presented but more importantly, delicious tasting. We'll definitely be back.

Had an excellent meal and have only positive feedback! I have been coming here for many years and I feel that the food, service and atmosphere is the best it has ever been. 10/10!

excellent proper Indian food...NOT the mediocre stuff most restaurants in the area serve up

I took my cousin who was visiting from Canada to Mall Road. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The food was excellent. The staff were first class. Prianca (I hope I have spelt her name correctly) was particularly good fun who made our visit very enjoyable.

Amazing curry. One of the best I've ever had, the railway lamb was everybody's favourite.

First time visiting this restaurant and won't be the last. The food was really good and the service was lovely. Felt very welcome. Saag baji is the best I've had. Great dining experience and well worth a visit. Thank you

A very nice place to eat lunch or dinner. Never had a bad meal or service there.

Excellent food, so tasty and beautifully served. Staff are so lovely and look after everyone very well.

Delicious meal served by lovely staff.

I had an incredible dining experience yet again at this restaurant! The food is consistently delicious and tastes just as amazing as it did the last time. Today, I tried the Sev Puri and Chicken Tikka, both of which were absolutely mouth-watering and full of flavor. For the main course, the Paneer Makhni, Prawn Curry, and Chicken Chettinad were nothing short of fabulous. Each dish was perfectly prepared, with rich, authentic flavors that left me wanting more. A special thank you to Chef Raju for the outstanding food and to Priyanka for her excellent service. She was attentive and made the entire experience even better. I can’t wait to return!

The food was excellent & different the flavour & presentation was so unexpected. First class food &service. Atmosphere was good nice tables with space between them, only spoilt with other diners shouting into their mobile phones ( but quite amusing).

Good food and very pleasent staff. We'll be back😁 We were back. Yet again great food and lovely staff. Well be back!, Again!!

Such good food, everything tasted extremely delicious and fresh, we have eaten here a few times and can’t fault it. Amazing food and service. Would highly recommend.

Went to Mall Road this evening food was superb very fresh tasting, service brilliant and general ambiance lovely! Had a wonderful meal would highly recommend there in fact 10/10

Amazing authentic Indian food, ordered for takeout but will be visiting again soon to dine in. Moved from London to Essex and I can say this is one of the best Indians I’ve had in the area. Great customer service too!

From start to finish an amazing experience. Extremely friendly service, nice decor and the food was unbelievable. We were a party of ten and everyone loved every single bite of their order. I can't wait to come back for another visit. Book a table. You definitely won't be disappointed! ☺️

Lovely food lovely service. Shame it was quiet as deserves to be busy as very good

Very nice meal and polite waiter, on my previous visit a young lady waited on us and had a better knowledge of the food and was able to make better suggestions. The waiter tonight was excellent, he just had less food experience. We will be back.

Lovely restaurant. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and the staff were friendly and helpful. The dishes itself were so delectable that we ate basically all of them before we had a chance to even take photos😅! All the curries that we got were very aromatic and tasty. My personal favourite was Dal makhani, so yummy. I would highly recommend the sev poori for starter. Trust me, it will be finished in seconds! The drinks were satisfying and refreshing. The owner suggested chocolate samosa with ice cream dessert for my kids, a combination I have never tried before- It was crispy and sweet and just absolutely bewitching! I would highly recommend, will definitely be coming back here again!

Group of 7 enjoyed a lovely meal here celebrating my husband’s birthday - lovely to be surprised with a cake - thank you so much! The food was lovely - definitely not your average ‘run of the mill’ Indian food - which is why we like eating here !

I don't normally review, but the food was very fresh which is rare for takeaways and the atmosphere was incredible.

We nearly didn’t order this tonight because there were too few reviews. So I had to write one because the food was brilliant. Succulent, tender lamb in my railway curry. They made us a chicken shashlick which wasn’t on the standard menu. Huge chunks of the tenderest chicken, really well flavoured. The Tawa mushroom was way better than our usual mushroom bhaji. Everything in it seemed the highest quality. Absolutely loved it!

Pleasantly surprised to have such unique Indian cuisine, expertly crafted by cooks that come from Delhi, India. Even the deserts and kulfi are made in house. An exceptional boutique curry experience.

Tried this place tonight and we were both throughly impressed. Our curry’s were cooked well with good quality ingredients and no puddles of oil in sight. We enjoyed the mains so much we wanted to try dessert and they were absolutely delicious and made in house. Authentic absolutely tasty food I would 1000% recommend.

Food was amazing. Best Indian ive ever had. The staff were just so lovely. One of our party had a tricky food allergy, and they must have spent hours working with us to coordinate a bespoke dish, which she could eat.

Perfect evening with my family, delicious food, friendly service, sensible prices.

Excellent experience took the family 9 of us for a birthday youngest child is 3 years old staff went of there way to look after us . I have allergy’s and the chef was excellent in his approach to keeping the food separate from the rest very reassuring that the food was safe for me to eat. The restaurant is very modern ,clean and comfortable. We had starters balls popadoms mango mains were vegetables chicken korma prawn masala steamed rice vegetable rice all very tasty.

Food was delicious & very well presented and the staff were very helpful & attentive. Great evening and will definitely go back soon. Highly recommended. Went back last night & again great food and service thank you.

Fantastic meal and great service. Highly recommended

Excellent food and great service! I highly recommend this restaurant.

A very tasty menu, very friendly and professional table and kitchen service.

AMAZING😋😃💯💯 We don't usually write reviews but Mall Kitchen is very worthy of all the praise on here. Food is fantastic, genuine and expertly cooked. The flavours are individual, fresh and lovely. The entire family enjoyed our selection of dishes.

The food tasted lovely but we were surprised and disappointed on portion size compared to other local Indian restaurants.

We loved every bit of our first visit to your restaurant. It has already become our favourite insusn restaurant. So different and so authentic

Delicious food. Nice atmosphere Friendly staff

The food was delicious, the service excellent and as a bonus I was given a nice pensioner discount without even asking for it. This little Indian restaurant is much better than the Maharaja.

Delicious, authentic dishes. Thoroughly enjoyed our birthday celebration meal - the menu was varied and interesting with dishes we have never tried before. They were all mouthwatering. The coconut prawn dish, the fish curry, Grandma’s Curry and the so-called Railway Curry were 👏 . The selection of chutneys were also different from the norm. Thank you.

First time here for six of us. We were all very impressed with the food and service. We will be returning soon I am sure. Thank you.

Excellent food and brilliant customer service

Great meal. The railway lamb was fantastic and we were given a chocolate samosa at the end which was off the scale. Definately worth a visit.

Absolutely amazing , we had the best time , the food is out of this world , we even pulled the chef out to thank him , the brownie that was brought out for my husbands birthday was the best I’ve tasted , we will definitely be back for more

Best Indian food in Essex. Friday night was very busy and a tad noisy. Service was slow but worth the wait. Staff are super 👌

Food ok needs more spice flavour. Quite bland. Give it a go not everyone likes food to spicy.

Lovely food, nice venue and good price

Excellent food and service, the chef came out of the kitchen to let us know the ingredients that were in the desserts he made, which were lovely, we would highly recommend and look forward to our next visit.

Great mid week night out. Tuesdays are Thali night ,nice selection of 4 various dishes ,nans,rice and salad that always hits the spot. Great value too. The waitress is always really attentive and helpful if you fancy trying something different...or not lol . Chef is great and often comes out to have a chat and make sure all is well. Can't wait to visit again and try something new..

A lovely Indian restaurant. Food excellent choices and range of Indian cuisine, service exceptional always with a smile and a great atmosphere. I highly recommend Mall Road.

Absolutely fantastic experience The waitress ran us through the menu and made recommendations which were spot on. This is not just an Indian restaurant, it has dishes that we haven’t had before as well as the classics. The food was amazing and very fresh tasting, I wish them every success and we will be back soon.

Another great night at the Mall Road last night with Priyanka looking after us and Raju (owner & chef) making us a special (free) desert celebrating our 50th booking. Having been 50 times will indicate just how much we like the consistent high quality food and super service that we always receive at this restaurant. Highly recommend. 😃

Good slightly different Indian. Complimentary poppadoms were a nice touch. Will go again

Lovely food, lovely cocktails, lovely staff

We decided to go local and I'm so glad we did. The food was delicious, the staff were fantastic and very tentative. We chose among other dishes the Sev Puri. They are the most delicious bites that I have experienced in a long time. Everything we ate was flavoursome and exquisite. A true gem.

Really nice meal we had vegetable samosas and pakoras for starters. Then my wife had the sagg chicken and I had the chilli lamb. Tasted like Punjabi cooking rather than the normal Indian restaurants. We’ll definitely be visiting again.

Very tasty food with a real sense of fine garnishing. Would recommend to anyone who wants authentic Indian food in a five star restaurant, without breaking the bank. 👌

Went there recently with my family and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Food was delicious and the service was great. Would definitely recommend 👍

First visit and really impressed. Service tentative with friendly staff. The chef came out to see how everyone was enjoying the food and spoke to each table for feedback. The food was delightful, I like Indian food but sometimes find it too oily but this food was all fresh, light and just so tasteful. We have been meaning to try this restaurant for a while and are so glad we went, it will now become a regular. We are lucky to have this standard of Indian locally. Thank you Mall Road for a great experience 🙂

Returned here on a cold, damp Wednesday evening. Really pleased to see the place busy as we arrived; word is getting around about nice this place is! Lovely friendly service for our group of 4 and a good opportunity for our group to share some new dishes as we explored the menu together. Not a bad dish on the menu here, everything is cooked with great care and it shows in the taste. Each dish is different - would recommend the Railway Lamb and the Grandma's chicken curry. The star of the show has to be the chilli and date naan. Has to be tasted to be believed!!

Great food and service. An absolute gem. Best Indian food we've had for a long time.Lovely staff and nice restaurant.

A very comfortable and welcoming restaurant with delightful staff. The food was absolutely outstanding. True Indian food that was freshly and perfectly cooked. (Yes - I have been to India.) Great advice given by the lovely waitress as to what goes with what. A treat in every way.

I look forward to coming back and delighting in that delicious food. Service 10 at 10 courtesy, very attentive and helpful. Great atmosphere pleasant relaxing and comfy. Thank you to all the staff for being so friendly in turning our experience into a pleasure.

Visited on a quiet Tuesday evening Lovely welcome from the host. Food is incredible. Don’t be frightened that it’s not your regular Indian dishes. This is true Indian food We had Jadai Chicken and Railway Lamb. Both were amazing. Highly recommended!

Had a Diwali lunch at the restaurant. Selected from online searches instead of travelling to London. What a good choice. Probably have future Rotary dinner depending on numbers.

Left atmosphere blank as we had take away. The staff were friendly and helpful on the phone and at collection. Delicious food the three pieces of tikka were amazing xxx

Great authentic food alert!! This is now our favourite Indian on this side of Essex potentially all of Essex. Service was excellent, the staff knew their food really well, the owner is the head chef (delicious food). We had Priya and a young attentive waiter, didn't catch his name, both were super nice, we had a good chit chat with them. We dined on a rainy Saturday evening and the place was buzzing with groups and couples dinning. The prices are very reasonable and the cocktails are a must try. 5/5 from me and my husband.

lovely all round, friendly staff, amazing food and nice atmosphere hugely recommend!

Delicious food, with some really lovely choices. Felt healthier than most Indian restaurants I’ve eaten in. The service was perfect, really lovely staff. Restaurant was spotlessly clean, and nice modern. Would thoroughly recommend

We visited this restaurant on a Wednesday evening. The food was amazing . My husband had the railway lamb and I had grandmas curry. Both arrived piping hot. We were served by 2 lovely ladies who really couldn't do enough for us. We are hoping to go back on Wednesday this week and I am really looking forward to another beautiful meal.

My new favourite Indian. This is by some way the best tasting Indian food in the area. The menu is different to your typical Indian restaurant offering authentic cuisine, but you can ask for the common dishes too. I tried the Kadai chicken curry and it was superb. Genuinely one of the best meals I've had in a long time. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very relaxed and the service is superb. Special mention to Priyanka our waitress who was hilarious and very attentive. An absolute must try if you're local or visiting the area. 10/10

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND going here not only just because of the food

Delicious authentic food with mesmerising experience

Had a really good family meal here, everyone said how good it was. Staff really friendly, will definitely be back. Thankyou

Always a great evening at the Mall Road. Excellent food. Excellent service. Sensible prices. Nice atmosphere. We have been every week since it opened so that should tell you all that you need to know.

Another visit of many to mall road from the moment you walk in the door the welcome you get from Raj and his great staff sets the tone. The food is amazing tasty fresh and different from the usual run of the mill Indian restaurants. We need to keep places like this going because it’s a great experience if your a foodie and a lover of a curry so all I add now is use it or lose it. Thanks Raj see you soon regards kev and Wendy 👍

The boys & I took their Dad here for a Father's Day lunch and we were so glad we did! What a great place, not long under new ownership and they're really doing good things! The food was gorgeous and the staff were helpful, friendly and fun. We have 2 young boys who like Indian food but aren't overly adventurous with it - finding dishes they already know made with an Indian twist was fantastic for them. Our eldest had a tikka burger, (the sauce was a bit hot for him and they immediately re-made it for him with a milder sauce!), our youngest had Indian Fish & Chips and he loved having one of his faves cooked with some Indian spices. Highly recommend their Thali which us parents both had. Will be recommending this restaurant and will be visiting again - LOVED IT!

An Oasis of bursting flavours in a crowded cuisine. Attentive Service, Comfortable Surroundings, this food is not just thrown into a pan and served, the bursting flavours in each dish proves care and attention in its preparation, Massala Calamari, Saag Lamb, Mall Road Lamb Chops, Chicken Tikka Massala, amazing portions and flavours. Definitely will return.... 👌

We have found a local Oasis with bursting flavours in a crowded cuisine, great service, comfortable surroundings, food not just thrown into a pan, focused preparation and care resulted in a great tasting dish, Massalla Calamari, Mall Road Lamb Chops, Saag Lamb, Chicken Tikka Massala 😋 ...

Tried this restaurant for the first time today and the food is excellent, very tasty authentic Indian food. Staff were very attentive. Would highly recommend this restaurant to friends and family.

Excellent food and great service from one of the nicest waitresses ever. Had the tastiest Biryani ever. All the food including dessert was super tasty. Definitely would recommend and can’t wait to return.

First time there as we were looking for a new experience of Indian cuisine checked the net and we decided to go there although it's a bit far from where we are ... however arrived to there found us a table set down and started to order drinks followed by starter and the main course....got the drinks five minutes later the main arrived I asked where the starter got told you never asked for one ......then the waiter took the food back another ten minutes my partner starter arrived onions bahaji .. really disappointed as it didn't look or taste like one was just some onion made flat and very thin and fried very oily she did not eat it..... asked where is my starter was again told you didn't order any called the waiter who took the order ten minutes later I got my kebab ...was ok .... fifteen minutes later was told the main is ready brought 2 warm plats set there until they got cooled and then the mains arrived 10 minutes later....my was the special of the day ...ok but nothing to shout about very very lemony portion was good rice was good my partner chicken 🐔 madras unfortunately not as nice as other places .... paid the bill ... and left ...not going there again 😞

Greeted at the door by the lovely Priyanka, she was very friendly, attentive and helpful. Explained a couple of things on the menu that I'd not heard of before and recommended the Kadai Chicken. Wow! Truly amazing, I think it's now my go-to curry! All the food we had was very tasty, the pulao rice, keema naan oh and the lamb chops mmmmm I could eat it all over again! Well done chef! Look forward to coming back!

Food very lovely, breads extra special. Good value. Loved my mocktail

Have been to Mall Road restaurants some 5 weeks running and have discovered the nicest Indian restaurant I have ever been to. The welcome from Priyanka and the food from Rajiv take some beating. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Excellent service and wonderful food. Recommend to anyone.

Second time here and didn't think it could get any better. I was wrong. Amazing food and service is legendary.

Had a fab Sunday lunch here. Street food style, beautifully presented and incredibly tasty. A different type of Indian food. I think this is a special Sunday lunch menu and is excellent value and very generous portions. Fantastically friendly service with good explanations of the menu. We will be back!

Had a fantastic family lunch here. Great Sunday menu including great choices for younger diners - food they’re familiar with but with an Indian twist, excellent! Highly recommend the Thali, and they’re homemade India. I’ve cream is lovely. We will be visiting again.

Had a wonderful time for my girlfriends birthday. Great food and excellent service! They even brought out ice cream and sang when I mentioned it was her birthday! A lovely touch

Always good food takeaway is just as good

Went here for the first time as had heard lots of good things about it. We weren’t disappointed. The food is excellent. Not like every other Indian restaurant you come across in the UK (not that they are rubbish), but this place is more northern...

Great service and food was full of flavours 10/10

We are very lucky in Hadleigh to have such a lovely restaurant as Mall Road. The service was excellent the food first class. A little bit different and more authentic than the usual chicken tikka masala and onion bhaji offerings. Highly recommended.

Absolutely brilliant. Waitress serving us was fantastic, so sweet, very friendly and professional. What an asset! Food was amazing, very good and more interesting than the usual Indian restaurant. Waitress also surprised us with a complimentary desert which had 'Happy Anniversary' written on the plate in a fruit gel. What a lovely thought! Superb service! Can't wait to return, already planning what I'll eat next time. Thank you Mall Road!
