Excellent service and the food was super delicious! Everyone should give it a try😋 The waiter Udoy is very helpful and recommended the best curry in the menu.

It's quite a while since we visited as the meal was good for some but mine was disappointing. It was longer ago than 2023 but I couldn't choose the right date. We've had takeaways more recently too but stopped using them as the quality was too variable and portions were small compared to other providers. It used to be much better and perhaps it has improved but we probably won't risk it.

I went to this place for my fiancée’s birthday. The service was terrible, the staff didn’t make us feel welcome at all and worst of all when I tried to order a lassi the server said they are too busy for it. At that point there were only 3 tables filled including ours with around 10 people for the whole restaurant. If that was busy I’m dreading to see what it’s like when it’s truly busy! The staff barely smiled and placed our group very close with another table even though there was plenty of space. Not impressed at all. The food was good although the chicken a little tough. Overall - not the best experience will NOT be going back there.

The food and service was fantastic. They catered for 22 people, not a single complaint. Starters, main and a few desserts with drinks worked out to be around £32 per head. Amazing value and top quality food! We will be back for the next birthday celebration and thoroughly recommend.

Bland and lacking spices. Both dishes were bland and lacking flavour. Not real smell or taste of the usual spices you get with Indian food. Waited an hour for delivery. A few days later I bought the same curry from the Co-op (microwave readymeal). It was much nicer and had more flavour and spices. How can a readymeal be better than a specialist establishment??? Shocking

This was our first visit here since New Years Eve, which left us very disappointed with one of the owners.....however on this occasion we were blown away not only by the staff and service, but the food was top notch too. I opted for a King Prawn Puree...cooked to perfection and arrived in good time, piping hot. Main course was Chicken Tikka for both of us. Girlie had the starter variant for her main course, whereas I tucked into the full blown main course one. Once again, very tender just enough spice and totally delicious. We followed up with a well presented Pina Colada dessert...all washed down with a reasonably priced bottle of Pinot All in all a fabulous night, just as it used to be.

Fantastic every time. Having tried most Indian restaurants and takeaways in the area, from Newhaven to rottingdean, most don't come close to beating the quality of food from maloncho. Consistent, the curries always taste the same high quality whenever you order them. For me, the tikka masala is rich and spicy but not hot. It is somewhat sweet, so too is the aloo paneer which I also tried and love. Very flavorful and best around. Certainly recommend. Previously tried many other Indian shops in the area , either bland or low quality. Certainly recommend, my experience isn't based on one order it's based on 3+ over the past few months.

I am sad to write this after many decades using this restaurant. This was the second takeaway that we have collected that was warm not hot by getting to car. I took it back and he said it is hot feeling tinfoil case. I said inside isnot. He refused to do anything about it. When home I checked temperature and it was94’F and I checked safety guidance for takeaways which should have been kept at at least 145’F whilst transporting. This curry wasn’t at that when I collected. I got there early so ot would not be kept in the blue box but it was already in there . Please can you address this issue and test the warmth of your food on collection with a thermometer so you can get the his right or adjust pick up times earlier. Had to reheat at home.

We are so happy that this excellent Indian restaurant has reopened! Such great food with excellent service. The onion bhajis here are amazing. Not oily just plenty of flavour. We had black pepper chicken with mushroom rice and murgh makhani with lemon rice, bombay potato and garlic nan. Such large portions! The rice really complimented the curry especially the tangy lemon with the creamy murgh. Served with cobra beer, all went down a treat. We weren’t going yo have a dessert but we couldn't resist! Pistachio kulfi and banofee ice cream pot were lovely!! Very impressed with the food, service and atmosphere. We will be back!

...to the restaurant! Let's be honesty take away isn't quite the same as eating in....and we were delighted to discover that the eating in bit was to reopen..and duly booked a table for the first Saturday of business. We arrived unsurprisingly to a busy restaurant, and were swiftly led to our table. There were, amongst a couple of familiar members of staff, lots of new faces, which seemed to lack experience, but were efficient non the same. However, they were serving food like there'd been trained by Eusain Boult....with a swiftness not seen anywhere before! Having said that, the food (chicken tikka, and the prawn puree and the chicken they set fire too) was a as easy as ever with very generous portions, and excellent value for money too. We had to 'nick' clean cutlery and a candle/tea light from an adjoining table... The manager/owner (or at least we think he was) took the trouble to go round the restaurant to thank us for visiting, although he lacked a little bit of sincerity, however one of the other familiar faces was much more appreciative. Welcome back guys......we look forward to our next visit.

Not for the first time we waited a long time for our order (1 hr). We ordered in the shop and then waited and watched people come in, order receive their food and leave. When I enquired how much longer we would need to wait I was told that I hadn’t been waiting that long (50 mins). I said other people had ordered and gone and was told ‘no they haven’t’ when we received our food luke-warm and tasteless and no apology for the wait - definitely need some competition locally

Peacehaven definitely needs to open more Indian restaurants to take the monopoly away from malonchos and give it some healthy competition ,it might then up its game .My wife and I had a takeaway from malonchos last night normally it’s ok but I felt they are now putting profits before good food and flavours, this is the second takeaway that has been below standard we have had in the last 2 months.I had the king prawn madras with chips and as you can see from the picture I have added I didn’t know if it was a curry or a soup as it was like water with about as much flavour as water . My wife went for the chicken tikka masala which she said was so dry it was chewy. As for us it will be our last time eating from here until We see a lot of good rating . It’s a shame as this place was once very good .

I hate to admit this as it's been my local, regular Indian for years now but it's going downhill. From a takeaway perspective, the first challenge is getting through on the phone. It easily takes at least 20 or so attempts on both landlines to get through to place an order. I get that this could be a hard thing to manage if you're getting lots of orders but a queuing system would be fine. Secondly, delivery times now are consistently well over and hour, even on weeknights. This would also be understandable if the quality of the food was still there, which regrettably it is not, which leads me on to my final point.The food quality has declined so much from my experience. Having used Maloncho for so many years, I have tried the vast majority of the menu and all the dishes used to be great - full of flavour, spice, rich sauces etc but now this is not the case. Even my choice of go-to safe options which always used to be good have now become bland, watery and generally unsatisfying. With the long waiting times for delivery also the food usually turns up lukewarm and for some reason the last handful of times, usually all over the bag rather than in the containers. It started off with 1 bad experience but I happily wrote it off as just an off-night, it has now been for the last 5 or 6 orders now and this is enough for me, I'll have to sadly find a new option. I hope it can return to its previous glory.

The weather was bad but we received a warm friendly welcome. The place was empty probably because of the awful weather. An extensive menu covering the whole range of Indian food with recommended Chef specials. The food was mediocre and lacking. My Garlic chicken was an ample portion but did not have the bite which I would have liked. The Biriani's were considered bland so unexciting. The outside look is nothing that would draw you in but the interior was light, bright and modernly decorated. Very pleasant. Due to the lack of customers it had little atmosphere. Perhaps on another day?

My wife and I are from Birmingham and so are spoiled for choice when it comes to Indian Restaurants. However we frequently struggle to find a good one when we are away from home. Therefore when visiting my cousin and his wife in Peacehaven we didn't really expect too much when they suggested having a takeaway from this Indian restaurant. We needn't have worried . The quality of the chicken in our food was excellent(always a good indicator) and the sauce was both tasty and very much to our taste. We paid a bit more than we would have done in Birmingham , which is not surprising , but you don't mind when the food is as good as this. We would definitely reccommend this restaurant.

All our best friends came down from London Saturday and we all had a great day in Brighton visiting various pubs, Crickiters love this place, my hotel for more great cocktails, and decided to have dinner, so after going to various Restaurants in Brighton that were all fully booked or not serving at all at 22.00 at night???? Really I thought, so we decided to go to Muloncho Indian, I called to geek the table as the last booking is at 23.30 we arrived and the place was so busy, we got a big table at the rear which was all set up and ready, our waiter was a great chap sadly did not get his name but he wore glasses, and was so friendly . We started with popadoms and various pickles, got our Sauvignon Blanc wines and some beers for the guys, we ordered our mains of Cyclon chicken, Chicken madras. Lamb Buna, Sizzling Chicken, chilli chicken, and tried various rice diches of, Lemon Rice, Mushroom Rice, Cocunut Rice, Sagaloo, Bombay Potatoes, and after about just 10 minutes our mains arrived and we all agreed after trying them all that it was truly Delicious and served on Hot Plates ( I Love That ) the waiter really looked after us all throughout the night and it was a great Atmosphere . We asked for Taxi for us to get back to my House, and again it was all sorted, it's a lovely very well laid out Restaurant, the place is spotless throughout and the service is superb, parking is easy to, and the menu is fantastic with a great various selection on Indian and Punjab food but do ask about trying Different foods like we did as it was well worth it, truly delicious food,

Used to use Maloncho regularly (don't want to admit every week but there are worse sins)! Over the last month or two service has really gone down hill. Deliveries now taking 2 hours plus and now more than once the wrong dishes delivered, luke warm.

Fancied a Indian takeaway not that we often have one. Thought we would try somewhere locally that we have not tried before.

Again so hungry ordered takeaway not what we ordered. Pompadoms burnt tasted disgusting I'm sorry we decided to order. Also for the poor customer that got my curry as I like them hot. Lesson learnt

Went for a try out meal at Maloncho. I'm vegetarian the two people with me weren't. I had great starter and my main was excellent. Both of my fellow diners also really enjoyed their meals. Nice restaurant but a bit formal for my personal taste. Would recommend 100%

Visited here on a whim, didn't book thinking they would be quiet, turned out to be really busy, a good sign for any restaurant on a Sunday afternoon, and I have to say all 4 of us were very pleased with all the dishes we tried, except for the popadoms & chutneys(tasted like out of a jar) highly recommend the sizzler Juliet, which comes out on a hot skillet flaming the smells are out of this world, a very popular dish that came sizzling through the restaurant regularly though the evening, all in all a must visit if your in the area

Have ordered takeaways from Maloncho's for many years and have always thoroughly enjoyed their food. Have now on a few occasions eaten in their restaurant. Again the food was very good. The staff are very friendly and the service excellent. At the weekend it gets very busy, so have to be prepared to wait a bit longer. Worth it though as the curry is freshly cooked, hot and plenty of it. The new restaurant has a nice atmosphere, modern and clean. We have also been offered a complimentary drink at the end of the evening. We will definitely return soon.

Have been having takeaways for years and were good, but it seems that since the restaurant has opened things are not as good, the last two takeaways I have had to phone and complain because they were not up to standard, have not been back since.

Attended the Maloncho for an evening meal. I have eaten many take aways from the Restaurant but never eaten in before. I found the menu to be extensive. The service was excellent, the food to be superb. One of the best places I have eaten Indian food

We had a curry on Thursday evening it was really poor, tasteless and the onion bahgees were oily and not very nice, however we gave them another try tonight and was much better, the chicken was a little on tough side but the rest was lovely. It does seem to be a bit hit or miss from here, I wonder if they a different chef on wèekends

Been getting my Indian take always for many years and never been disappointed and this was the third time I sat in and eat. The previous times was with friends. This time we took our 14 year old son. Service was first class, very polite and friendly. They don't rush you. We had 2 tikka masala's and a chicken Balti, onion bahjee, Bombay potato with a couple of naans and all were amazing. Even offered complimentary drinks which we declined on this occasion.Can't wait to go back or order our next takeaway.

Ordered mixed starter £8-9 piece of chicken, 2 piece of lamb, about a bites worth of sheek kebab and 1 tiny tiny samosa, really poor. Vindaloo not much flavour and chicken really small and no potato. Busy Saturday night so no idea why food was so poor

I don’t like writing negative reviews. I really don’t. But this place was a bit meh. Nothing was ‘bad’ but nothing was particularly good either. The service was good and generally attentive but the food was disappointing and presentation was distinctly lacking. There were 2 full menus and perhaps that’s the problem - they do a lot of dishes but none of them particularly well?
