Masala III in Lancaster

Always excellent food and really polite staff

Ordered online and picked up from restaurant. The value is pretty good when compared to others in the area, however it’s not in the centre so does not have the same costs. Seems to be more Indian rather than Bangladeshi food which is unusual.

I feel bad for writing this, but I just didnt enjoy my food as it didnt taste fresh. The lamb was unfortunately overcooked and seemed to just smell a bit old. I hope they can work on quality.

This is the first Indian meal I’ve had that I’ve enjoyed, having tried quite a few Indian takeaways this is the first time I’ve tried masala red, I can highly recommend it, it was fairly good value for money, but when they say spicy (1chilli) it really is spicy, to much for me and I love spicy. Forwarned is forarmed.

mint sauce was spicy? never used to be,the tandoori chicken legs, must of come from the desert, as they were very dry, chicken korma was great, but the garlic chicken bhuna was not the greatest, and the chicken chat was ok. not sure if they have changed chefs..but overall tonight it's a 6/10

excellent food n service .was a big order no complaints as usual.delivered by top gentleman again.

Waste of money...full of onions and kulcha was also onion naan:( They don't even know what kulcha is.Search dish before adding into your menu.

Best curry I’ve had in a long time, meal for 1 is perfect plus they give me popadoms n extra chutneys for free.

Excellent food as always. Best curry in Lancaster. Enjoy

If u want a super tasty curry this is the place to get it. Best in town by a long way.

First time ordering and it’s my new favourite place for Indian food. The food arrived early and felt hot and fresh. I’m not a fan of very spicy food so ordered accordingly and it was tasty, well flavoured and seasoned. The minimum order price is good as is the delivery charge.

Food came piping hot, all tasted fresh - really enjoyed ! Will order again :)

Excellent quality, enjoyed the meal 👍🏻

On the whole nice. The mixed starter has lamb that’s just inedible: so tough it can’t be eaten. Otherwise ok. Is it me or are take out really expensive now?

Ordered chicken saagwala never ever tasted one as spicy - couldn’t eat mine - chicken tikka masala also ordered no issues with it - so won’t be ordering that again 🔥🔥😍

the driver needs to get back satnav

the lamb was cold and hard in a hot curry.

The food was early on top of tasting nice, Bossman also gave me a free poppadom :), all food here is halal too which works nicely for me

timings were good, but curry didn’t taste right

Chana masala was really bad. It had no Chana and masala? Worst chana masala I had. Other dishes were good.

Great to have salmon as an option. Great flavoured, well cooked, excellent menu and good value.

Food quality is going downhill, probably last time I will order from here.

the food was great can't fault anything 👍

Buy the same dish regularly but it was extremely hot this time, had to add cream to it to make it edible. We waited 2 hours for it to arrive and then it sat outside the house in a car for a good while. Not sure why.

The food took two hours to arrive after we ordered a takeaway. Every time we called for an update, we were told it would be 15 mins, but it then took over an hour after they said this. We received no compensation for this, and the food itself was lukewarm and the rice was just cold. Really disappointed with this place. Will never order from here again.

Food was really good in general, good value for money, curry’s we’re both really nice, onion bhajis were good, rice was nice, only disappointment was the naan bread, was probably the worst I’ve had from a takeaway but happy to look past that as the rest was really nice. Hopefully that was just a blip and the naan will be better next time as we will definitely be ordering again 👍

Great food 3rd time in a row now!

Really nice and fantastic service

Delivered quick. Delivered hot. And was as tasty as always. Would recommend 👍😎

Absolutely delicious! I will definitely be ordering from here again! 😋

Just Eat app said delivery in 30-40 minutes at the point of ordering, then changed once I’d already paid and it took 80 mins for food to arrive

Fabulous Indian Takeaway hidden away in Lancaster. Lovely food, traditional cooking, family run, lovely welcome, and we will certainly use this take away again.

Most of the food was very nice. But the chana masala was a bit basic it was essentially undercooked chickpeas poured into watery tikka masala sauce that you get from the catering suppliers could have been made from scratch with more interesting flavours and better texture

Had 4 different curries over 4 week whilst working in Lancaster on nights ...seriously this is one of the BEST curry houses I've ever been to .chicken tikla garlic special and chefs special balti ..GOOD MOTHER OF THE VINE ...AMAZING

Good was delicious and hot. One of best takeaways ever had.

The taste was not at all good .

Naan bread was like a rubber texture.

Excellent food. Delivered nice and hot. Would definitely order from them again.

Food arrived, polite delivery on time. Packaged neatly and easy to identify dishes. Food was very tasty and of a high standard. Will definitely order again.

Food was fantastic. Very friendly staff.

Lovely food as always and fast delivery A*

The butter chicken and cheese naan are excellent. I'll definitely be ordering from here again!

Lacking taste and very chewy meat

Food was beautiful as usual. The best tikka masala I've had. Just the lamb was a bit chewy, I struggled to eat it. Everything else was perfect

Absolutely delish! The Veggie Puri was gorgeous as well as the Tikka Masala! 10/10 would order again

Good food but takes a while to arrive

food was thoroughly okay, bhajis were undercooked

Fresh Hot Tasty food Loved it

Food was spot on full of flavour and great quality the best I've had from a takeaway for a long time.

Food was very hot. Like it has just that second been cooked, flavour and texture were all bang on. Rice was still nice and moist and not overcooked, onion bhajis are the small ones so again they arrive not dried out . I always get a soft poppadom :( the mango chutney was smooth , mint sauce was great, and no nasty bits of onion diced up.. all in all worth the price, whoever is cooking actually cares about what they are sending out.. and the delivery driver. She made takeaway worth ordering. Another good meal thanks

As usual, wonderful quality food, made nice and mild as we asked. Collected, by car, and still piping hot when i got home.

Been through a few Indian takeaways in the Lancaster over the years, and always been disappointed, generally a lot of over watery food, over spicy to compensate for lack of flavour. However Masala Red really knocked it out the park! Superb food, reasonable price, arrived exactly when estimated! Will be coming back, my new regular!

Good had little to no spice or glamour but was cooked okay. However indeed a chicken naan bread was sent cheese naan. Allergic to cheese. Wouldn't answer phone when I rang

Always wonderful food, though we do tend to order the same every time! Even when i get home after collection, the food is still piping hot. Also, a very friendly service when i go and collect.

Never had a bad meal from here. Awesome food, can’t fault it! 10/10 👍

Absolutely beautiful. Would recommend 😎 bob on

Had the 2 person deal..one korma, kids said it was tasty, nice consistency, no bits etc, chicken karahi was tasty, but got for my older lad, but was good, rice was cooked to perfection, not dry etc, onion bhajis where nice, chicken Tikka,was ok! Only gripe was the poppadoms where stale, but overall I would say the meal was a 9/10 was not disappointed..plus it was good value for money. Delivery lady was nice.

Delivery time was good, curry flavour, rice and naan was good but the lamb was extremely tough sadly 😔

Food was so sweet but so bland at the same time. Was looking forward to it all night just to be disappointed 😔

It’s simply the best Indian food you can get !! X without flying to India !

It was strange that the takeaway completed my order of starters and curries in 10 minutes. When we got home and looked at the food, it was obvious why. Same base and no difference of flavour in all the curries. Food tasted strange particularly the chicken and lamb. Couldn't eat it and ended up binning a very expensive meal. Awful.

First time from these and won’t be the last, excellent all round. Lovely food and piping hot.

Was a really nice curry very tasty, delivery was early. Good food good portions will be returning.

Asked for no cucumber as it doesn't agree with me so they left it out and sent a small mixed veg curry along for free too.

Very good food defo order again

Not worth the wait. At least the microwave got some use.

First time ordered from hear, fancied a curry for a change, decided by reviews and prices. Delivery was on time, food was warm and tasteful, both me and partner very happy and will return again

Didn’t like that I had to order boiled rice, pilau rice or Naan with my rogan josh (none of which I wanted. Chapati was burned and, although I ordered Coke Zero, I received Diet Coke which I can’t drink £2.50 wasted!

My go to Indian for takeaway - have ordered many times from here and always received good food. This time the chicken was a little dry and I did receive the wrong rice but still very nice and will be ordering again

5 star for food 2 star for deliver. Definitely go pick it up. They don’t seem to know how to deliver food

It's a while since I've used red masala , but now I remember why they were my favourites before I moved. The chicken pakora were how I had always hoped they might be for once! Not overly draped in thick batterwhich is a bit chewy and hard, these were delicately coated in a light batter, but still tender juicy, in fact perfectly cooked :-) would love it if you did fresh mango (either green or red!) On the side, but the mint yoghurt tasted good too. Everything else was perectly delicious (chicken garlic sag bhuna balti etc). Thought it deserved a good review

Missed 4 popodoms and 1 rice off the order. Good work!

Ok but don't really like microwaved food Grease on curry pakora sogy

Best Indian around, top quality !!!!!

Food was delicious, however it was 45 minutes late, although we were kept informed of this on the app

The food is excellent, best Indian in Lancaster, highly recommend, wish thwy did a lamb phall

Food was fresh and great flavour. Will be ordering again

One of the best kormas we have had. Usually the bread we get is good, but for some reason the peshwari was like normal naan with coconut in the middle and the garlic naan tasted like lemons

Busy Saturday night so to be expected…however was really tasty 😋

The taste was good but some of the lamb pieces were undercooked. I couldn't even chew through 2-3 pieces and had to spit them out. If the meat was cooked a little bit more and the food was delivered on time then there would be nothing to complain.

the naan was burnt & jalfrezi was weirdly sweet. why would you do that?

Lovely and hot food every time but when getting delivered it’s usually really late like up to an hour late. But definitely worth it, we’ve started ordering earlier so it can come at a decent time

Don't recommend. Food is not up to the standard of a regular indian take away and the customer service was extremely poor. We were not sent the take away order requested and when we phoned we were asked to pay delivery and the full price if we needed anything else. The lady on the phone did not want to hear what we had to say. Instead was just very aggressive. STAY AWAY. Not worth your money.

Awesome, especially the chicken pakora

Samber too hot. Plain nan flat, tough and forgettable.

Wouldn’t order from here again the chicken tikka masala just had sugar in it, this isn’t authentic by a mile. Ruined my appetite ordering from here.

Worst food, rude staff, late delivery and missed item of my order and bad attitude. Never again

Food arrived 10-15 minutes early, right temperature and it tasted amazing! Portions were really good from what we ordered (Set meal for 2) to last us from dinner until breakfast! We appreciate the effort on labeling the food as well for people like me that's not familiar with the dish :)

Absolutely superb. So tasty. We had the chicken Tandoori Shashlik with Balti sauce, Amazing!!!

WRONG.MASALAL!! The pork was not halal

Food never showed up and was lied to on the phone it was coming 3 separate times

Excellent food , poor delivery time !

Tasty food & arrived piping hot 2

Food was excellent as always! my chips was forgotten and replaced immediately when called!

Dint turn up on time rang restaurant was rude

As always, great food, my favourite takeaway. Thanks...

Lovely service, however awful food - a great shame.

Lamb tikka had hardly any lamb, it was like soup! Rang the restaurant they denied it, said it should have 10 pieces of lamb, they thought I was lying! Hopefully they will be more aware when serving the same dish to someone else.

As it was Eid they were running a couple mins late but were very apologetic and so nice about it, made my experience even better than if it wasn’t Eid :)

Took two hours to deliver food, said it would be 45 minutes. Rang up after 1 hour to ask where the food was and the staff were extremely unhelpful and just said "it's still at the restaurant, it will be there soon," which it was not. No refund or compensation was offered. Decent food.
