New Curry King in Basildon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

A new discovery to us during lockdown. They have a fascinating menu with lots of new and exciting dishes to try. My favourite is Nagariya Chicken but I can highly recommend the mince meat and chicken dish called Gurkhas Revenge! and no it doesn't come back to bite you in the morning. One thing to point out is there are no vegetarian options on the 'Just Eat' menu;their preferred method of on-line ordering. However, when I phoned the take-away they do have vegetarian options so check direct if that's your thing. Delivery is spot on. Each time I have asked for a Sat night delivery for 7.15pm it has arrived within 10 minutes.....amazing! Well worth a try.

The food did take over an hour to arrive however it was a Saturday night so can appreciate if they are busy. When the food arrived... wow! It smelled delicious and the takeaway tubs were really heavy and full. You really get a lot of food for your money. We ordered a lamb dopiaza, pilau rice, chicken biryani, sag aloo and two keema nans. It only came to £22.95 and if you spent over £15 they give you a free bombay aloo. There were just two of us and we had too much food, we ended up with leftovers (which we did finish the next day) although we did give it a good go and try and finish our food that first night as it was so tasty. There was a lot of meat in the curries which were both cooked nicely. The sauces in the curries were full of flavour and the keema nans were HUGE! The sag aloo was cooked well and there was a perfect mix of potatoes and spinach. We will definitely be ordering from them again as it was really good quality tasty food and great value for money.
