Millennium Tandoori in Lewisham

Over an hour to be delivered, food luke warm & NO DIPS! Even though I ordered popadoms.. when would you ever go to an Indian restaurant and get popadoms with no dips. Popadoms were stale, really poor.

Received a leaflet through my door today and looked appetizing with the benefit of a ringing endorsement from the Evening Standard. So; I thought let's give it a try. I ordered onion Bhaji cos they can be so crispily tastily satisfying with a little mint sauce when done perfectly. I also ordered King Prawn Puree, butter chicken and garlic naan. The delivery time was fantastic, approx 20 mins and the food was all piping hot. I was excited to delve into my bag of delights. The onion bhajis were first out, gold and crisp. A nice loose ball of crunchy and soft. Not the most flavoursome I've ever had, but satisfying nonetheless. The mint sauce was OK but a little sweet for my liking. The bhaji piqued my intrerest for the rest; so, slowly I opened and and unfolded the King Prawn Puree. This I have to admit was a little disappointing. There was some flavour but it was very mildly spiced, the deep fried bread was soggy and unevenly cooked. Slightly more worrying was the fishy flavour emanating from the prawns. Generally I have quite a robust constitution (acid reflux kills 99.9% of all known germs) so not too worried about tomorrow. Definitely needs to be fresher, more flavoursome with a bit of a kick and a bit of crunch to the bread. Having munched through a mixed pleasure of starters i was keen to get into the main course. I dream of the perfect butter chicken, succulent bite size offerings of breast or leg, especially if tandoored first, in a rich creamy beautifully spiced tomato sauce to which a heart attack of butter and cream has been lovingly combined with just a tiny kick of heat that opens the oppulence to the garlic, cinammon and cumin that then roll over your tongue. A sumptuous balance of creamy garlic butter with a slightly sweet and spicey compliment. When I tried this oh wow.... was I disapointed. My heart sank as I bit into a lump of over-cooked chicken breast, steeped in a sickly sweet cocount sauce that makes a distinction between very bad butter chicken and disgusting chicken Korma impossible. It was a typically bad butter chicken that so many "indian" restaurants seem to think that "us brits" that can't take heat crave. So disappointing. The lesson, don't order butter chicken from here unless you want a sweet yellow sauce of desiccated coconut smothering the life out of a dry piece of chicken. The Garlic Naan was good!!! - I won't give up and will try again. It seems that so many restaurants have a menu that contains their gems and also a load of other stuff they feel they have to offer. I think next time I will phone, describe the flavours that hit my tasting g-spot and see what the recommend. I really hope they deliver and the butter chicken is just someting they buy in as a boil in the bag lol.

We always order from here, the food is great! Always on time or early. Today they went out of their way to ensure our food was delivered to us even after an address fault on the just eat website.

Ordered food for delivery. It took 2 hours to arrive and was stone cold. Had to ring and chase the order, and the excuse was a ‘traffic jam’ . You were coming from 2 miles away at 8pm.You have lost a customer. Food used to be nice, but is not when it is stone cold.

Always the best experience from these guys. Delicious meal.

The food is delicious from here and good portions ❤️

Very good food. Best naans ever.

Normally exceptional, but tonight a bit too much oil.

Used to be good but has massively declined. Regularly takes more than an hour to deliver. And when you call to ask why it takes so long, they hang up on you.

Never had a bad experience over the years. Great food and delivery.

Said it before and I’ll say it again. Best ever Indian food in south-east London! Consistently delicious food through the years. Best value for money too, a set meal for one plus 2 starters is enough for two people for dinner and lunch the next day.

Great tasty food as always and on time. Will keep coming back.

this is the second time they've been so late I've had to call them. won't order from them again

Butter chicken gravy was very sweet as, it’s supposed to be creamy and flavourful but instead it was sugary, no flavours . Veg biryani was pulav probably with yellow colour. Over all won’t recommend it for an North Indian taste pallet

This people are jokers, thieves. I’ve ordered lamb and prawns biriyani there was not meat or prawns in the dish. All they sell to people is flavour and rice

Simply the best, love these guys always make my day with the best curry in Sydenham

Brilliant experience as always. Tasty food and delivery on time.

Really nice food. The portion sizes are really quite generous and the staff were extremely friendly. What more can I say. Top class.

Food was more than late. Food was cold. Food was missing.

Hey! just making a note that my drink was missing for next time I order!

First time ordering from here and very impressed. Great lamb dhansak!

Nearly two hour wait food cold again. Will definitely not be using again

Excellent food, probably my new go-to Indian!

Just a tiny bit longer than expected.

Food was well over an hour late and ways cold

Another great experience. Thank you

Bland. Tasteless. Lots of it but it was not good. Back to the Omrith for us!

Never ever disappoints. Best ever Indian food! You also get a LOT for your money.

Another great experience. Delicious food, on time delivery. Will continue to order from Millennium.

Delivery time was long considering it’s only a Tuesday and we live close by. Luckily the food was good.

Purveyors of junk mail, for some reason giving us two unwanted menus for one

Waited 90 minutes and then they cancelled! Unbelievably bad customer service - don’t order from them!

Great experience as always - delicious food. Delivery on time. Will keep ordering.

Delicious food as always from Milllennium

Well I'm a regular customer and the food is usually always good so I just can't believe the rubbish that has been sent to me tonight onion bahgees rock hard not fresh at all and byriani was horrible really not worth the hour wait for it to arrive. Very disappointed as it all went straight in the bin total waste of money ! Will be reluctant to order again as would not want the same experience as tonight !

Not only was my delivery 30 minutes late, the quality of my food was extremely poor: dhal was very watery and tasteless; lamb taba lacked seasoning and spices, and lamb very tough) Millennium used to be very good but clearly no more; gone downhill for certain.

Food was fanatic, haven’t enjoyed a curry like this in a long time

Delivered by a very polite chap 5 mins early. Great food, hot and tasty, good portions Very happy 👍🏼

The food arrived early and pipping hot. It was nicely packaged with the popadoms in one piece. All the food was really tasty, so I would definitely order from them again. Highly recommended

Easily my favourite Indian restaurant in the area. The takeaway service is excellent value for money and I am always pleased with the food. I usually have a tandoori mixed grill with onion bhajis, which are so incredibly moreish! I’ve never been disappointed with the quality or quantity or the food and have not had better from any other restaurant in South East London.

Good old fashioned Indian takeaway. Can’t fault it. Would have been nice if they provided complimentary papadam or onion salad as most places do, but no biggie! If you’re deciding where to order from you won’t regret this place!! 9.8/10

Food was cold upon arrival, the driver called me and was unable to find the address, doesn’t know how to follow obvious directions. Food was oily and only had 4 bits of chicken in the curry.

The food is tasty and sensitively spiced, dishes taste different from each other and good big portions! Always enjoyed the food from here.

Really enjoyed everything and will definitely order the aloo paratha again

Always quality great tasting authentic food

Delicious food and good prices. There’s a reason this place is my go to local takeaway! Ignore the negative reviews. This is a good spot 👌

Always quality food with fantastic service. Cannot rate higher!

Amazing food, especially the lamb bhuna and peshwari naan. Got a delivery, one item was missing but they delivered the missing item and a complimentary bottle of soft drink within 30 minutes after calling them. Delivery driver was very nice.

Another great experience from these guys. Delicious Fish Jalfreizi.

Chicken tough as old boots, everything else was okay

Lovely delivery guy and food was hot and tasty

Tried for the first time and really impressed. Great tasting food, delivered on time. Will definitely order again!

Tasty food. Great experience as always.

The food is good it's become very pricey,it also took 2 hours to get our order which was incorrect. They try to say there was traffic. It is such a shame.

Great as always, tasty, fresh, brilliant value

Brilliant masala shank! Exactly what I needed with my French red wine tonight. Coupled with keema naan just makes the perfect dinner. 10 stars from me :)

The food was not worth the money the rice is was congealed only a couple of bits of chicken in the dansak it was not fresh not happy won't use this shop again.

Your food is normally on point .. but on this occasion it was overcooked prawns in mushy peppers and drowned in oil. Think your chef had a bad day. I order same thing everytime and sometimes 3 times a week . Excuse me if I don’t order for a while but at least u know why.

Outrageously good as always. Best ever India takeaway in the area and the best value too! Keep up the amazing work.

Lovely food as always:-) Always recommend to friends.

It took 1h to deliver the food and the prawn & mushroom curry was half empty.

Always very good from here, but today there were only about 4 small pieces of chicken and also fish dish did not have much fish.

Always a tasty curry from Millennium.

Lovely food , fast delivery delicious

My favourite takeaway! Always absolutely delicious. Friends and family who come to visit and have tried it agree that it is amazing.

Love their food . Balti Bhuna is a winner I had to order it twice this week ..mmmm

Delicious, bang on time, piping hot, friendly delivery person! I have a sneaky suspicion they gave me madras instead of dhansak - based on the spicy creamy tomato sauce instead of milder sour lentil sauce? - but that’s cool it was still lovely, just a bit more spicy than expected. Great service and food!

Amazing food, great quality and good value. Will order from here again.

There is no rating below 1, unfortunately. Would have awarded that to them! Restaurant actually misleads people through its menu. And when pointed out, they argue. In the attached photograph, you should see a “dosa” and an “aloo paratha”. Instead, you see a “chapati wrap” like thing, and an oversized “malpua” like thing! When pointed out that it was supposed to be a chicken dosa, the manager/owner argued that “that’s how we do it!” And “dosas are anyways never non-vegetarian. So you should have expected that”. The cheeks 😂🤣 Anyways, pathetic food, even worse attitude!

FOOD ALWAYS HOT AND TASTES GREAT AND GOOD PORTIONS

We’ve been using them for a while now and are regular customers sometimes ordering twice or more a week. Food has occasionally come luke warm but this time The whole meal was cold, took an hour to come just to receive cold food is really unacceptable. Will not be using again.

I used to have take-away from here a lot but one order took almost two hours to arrive and when it came there was an item missing. I was assured that I would be refunded for the missing item but never was so I won’t be ordering again.

I liked the food, but when i called to find out if it was halal. they were not certain and confirmed yes. When i asked are you sure they said dont order from here if in doubt. Bad customer service no honesty

Best curry house in southlondon pukka

Awful! Late and luke warm food. Never again.

Ordered a take a away when I asked to pay with card driver walked away 😡😡😡😡

They are very good at food and customer service, they do know how to treat customer very well

Amazing food, amazing quality, amazing taste, amazing service, very professional and polite delivery

Lovely, tasty, fresh food and very friendly delivery driver

Still the very best India takeaway in the South-East!

Had a curry last night Chicken Tikka masala , not sure what it was we got. I like my food free from colouring , and artificial flavours . This was some sort of red dye goo. Not a good look for sure, which we flushed down the toilet ASAP, This used to be an excellent India few years back, now seem to sell high priced red goo . Think I'll give it a miss for a good while.

Excellent all round as always

DO NOT ORDER HERE. Disgusting food took over an hour and although this wasn’t the first time our order had been wrong when I politely called to check the order I was shouted and sworn at for asking for the correct dish. Absolutely appalled and has ruined my evening.

Can you please put mint sauce on your online menu as you cant order extra pots 👍

Please please please never forget the mint sauce other wise onion bhaji is un edible (to dry ) also please fill the pot to the top, halfway is not enough. thankyou

Excellent food as usual but the food arrived 30 minutes before we had required.

Food is lovely the best in the area

I ordered a drink with my meal and it didn't get delivered :-(

Consistently good food plus no plastic containers. That’s why we love it. Well done!

Always top food and service in my experience 👌👌👌👌👍👍

Bread for the purée was abit too thick today

Excellent tasty food and delivery on time. Will order again.

I was recommended this place and wow it didn’t disappoint. Everything tasted so good, the meat is good quality and you can tell they take pride in their work because everything is so fresh. Delivery man is a sweetheart too and all round great experience. I tried another recommended Indian takeaway in Shrewsbury and it didn’t compare at all even though it was nice. Guybrush recommends!

Delicious food and great delivery time. Will be back to order again.

Best curry house around my area their curry’s have so much flavour!

Wow, everything’s really fresh and delicious

Amazing food. Ordered chicken tandoori was really delicious and the staff are nice and friendly too. Definitely recommend this place highly, best curry house for me.

Food was tasty and not too heavily spiced

Ordered at 19:22, arrived at 21:35. Unacceptable. Food is nice as have been a frequent customer, but to wait over two hours for a simple order is unacceptable, which also came lukewarm and without any mint sauce.

Doesn’t matter whether the food was any good; it was over an hour late and the restaurant lied about how far away the driver was on each of the 3 times that I spoke to them and never responded to enquiries through the app. No opportunity to get a refund on just eat, didn’t want the food by the time it got here. Massively disappointed.
