New Simply Indian in Merthyr Tydfil

First time ordering from here (delivery) and I have to say, I was impressed. The presentation was nice (the food was in a nice package inside the plastic bag), the food was still hot, the Chicken Tikka Vindaloo was really good, the Pathia sauce was lovely with a nice sweet and sour flavour, the mushroom rice was good and the Keema naan dipped in the Pathia sauce was definitely a winner. The Poppadoms and mint sauce were nice too. I will definitely be ordering here again at some point. 5/5

Just bad food chunks of chicken in sauce , not cooked as a meal , I can make a better curry and I,m a plumber.

Had half and half. Saag aloo and lamb madras yesterday. It was so good I had to have the same again today. Keep up the good work boys

I ordered via uber eats app, placed the order all OK. Delivery time came around about 45mins later, then the latest Delivery time. I requested an update over an hour had past and they just cancelled the order on me

5/5. Absolutely loved our Indian take away. Loved it so much we ordered twice during our short stay in merthyr tydfil. The best makhani and peshwari naan I’ve ever had. Now please open a takeout in Windermere, Lake District!

If there was a star rating for zero I would, £50 for the order I had chicken madras and keema nan nothing more than a Wednesday tea the only spice was salt. Ordered the onion chutney if you spend £50 you expect free popadoms I’m a simple Welsh woman and I can do better it was embarrassing.

A slightly weird experience! Visitors staying in nearby airbnb. Saw 50% off mains offer and decided to dine in. We were the only ones there. A bit souless. Thanks to the young lad (aged about 10!) we had a good time because he was switched on and responsive. Maybe Dad's speciality is cooking because the food was great and well presented but customer service was lacking. You can't take in alcohol and you need cash to pay. Both need to be well signed outside. There is a big difference between take away prices and sit in (about £2 per item) and on reflection we were paying to sit somewhere less pleasant than our cottage. However there is no where else walking distance. Hopefully the son gets the career he craves but in the meantime he's the heart of the restaurant!

Absolutely disgraceful £35 on a meal that never turned up!!! Staff are rude , kept putting phone down on us and being damn right disrespectful!! I will be going there for a full refund tomorrow it’s disgraceful will never order from here again and I suggest other people stay away fro this place also it’s shocking

Awesome food great staff, best Indian in south wales

Hardly any chicken in pakora and was the size of my fist

This is our fav Indian restaurant in the Merthyr valley. A lot of the dishes are Nepali so not you’re usual Indian but close enough. As a vegetarian I think they have the best saag/palak paneer. Delivery can take up to 1.5hrs so just order ahead of time.

Staff were so lovely and friendly The food was very disappointing Chips hard Madras had no spice whatsoever just tasted like tomatoes Biryani was very bland no taste (but did have plenty of meat)

We were very hungry and although the food took a while to arrive it was very good. Peshwari naan was ace! Bought beers over the road in Londis 👌

So disappointed with tonight’s order! Took two hours to come and on top of that the food was just slightly warm, didnt follow the notes left the crispy pancake was soft and soggy and the person on the phone hung up on me. Never had a problem before tonight.

Good food nice pint great service thanks

Very good and authentic tasting food at correct ‘hotness’. Better than Mango House, in Cefn Coed, which I also feel is pretty decent. It is a bit pricey, especially if you get Chutney Tray and Poppadoms as starters, however, authenticity and quality of food offsets this. I lived in Birmingham previously, 2nd home of curry houses in uk, and this comes close to the better of those. Never a bad meal yet.

I can’t believe this is Indian food. The biriyani was pathetic more felt like tomato rice with chicken used alot colour. Tandoori chicken lacked any flavour. We are known for our spices I wasn’t able to taste any either my friends. Please don’t judge Indian cuisine from the food in this place. Only positive were good packing and good delivery.

Really enjoy the food from New simply indian The service is outstanding Delivery is always on time Quality of the food is first Best indian restaurant and takeaway in South wales

We went here to get dinner on a recent trip to Wales. We ordered takeout - starters (bhaji, pakora); two mains (Chicken Dansak and Chicken Chilli Masala); naan and rice. The portions were good value and the food quality was excellent. The Chilli Masala was the most flavorful Indian meal we have had in years. The naans were perfectly done. I would highly recommend this place for takeout if you are in the area or even passing through.

Absolutely the best curry around at the moment, we love this restaurant and I would order every day if I could....superb👌

Really yummy food, we loved everything.

Bad service over priced food low quality , avoid this place . I have eaten food from places of a much better standard than this place for half the price . I personally will never entertain these clowns again !!!!!

Very polite friendly people would definitely go again

The food was worst, and it disappointed me. I ordered paneer tikka masala, fried rice, and lamb tikka masala, all of these were poor in quality and it doesn't look like Indian cuisine, we discarded everything because we felt stomach ache after the meal.

Placed order at 19:30. Still waiting for it at 21:56.

Had a delivery new years eve Very disappointed no taste what so ever it was very bland and the lamb was disgusting Delivery was quicker than expected I paid £40 plus has a treat for new year eve It's a lot of money to pay If the food had been good I wouldn't have minded

Love the food here, very helpful and friendly staff just order early on weekends gets busy!

great place, great food, great staff

Despite my first impressions, due to the restaurant being empty. This curry house is fantastic, it's one of the best curries I've had in a long time. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. When we visited, they didn't have an alcohol licence, so we placed our orders and went for a beer down the road, then returned to sit and eat excellent meals. I can't wait to come back.

Amazing food, highly recommended

Tried a madras couple weeks ago. Very very bland but not horrible, tonight I tried the naga. Was even more bland, had no heat. No naga chilli and no coriander which I asked for extra but never got. Literaly base sauce with onions chucked in that tastes exactly the same as the madras weeks before, Ordered 2 poppadoms and got one that was smashed to pieces... Too top it all off I've had belly ache all night. Sickness etc...... Can see why it's called simply Indian now. I can cook better at home 👎

Came from the bunkhouse round the corner for a takeaway, but once inside decided to eat-in. Jacob was incredibly good to us and really personable, food was great.

Well prepaired food and can also be tweeked to your prefrence if requested well run restraunt

Have had three takeaways from here. All were tasty, hot and ready on time.

Perfectly acceptable tasty Indian Curries, good selection , good service. Pricing spot on. Only downside, no alcohol but not an issue really, happy with the non alcoholic beers on offer.

This restaurant does not serve or allow you to bring in alcohol, probably no need to read on. Our visit turned into a bit of a comedy, the waiter threw a full tray of rice and naan on the floor, one of our party ordered chicken and got lamb. Mixed feelings on the food some enjoyed it more than others. And we scored a free round of 0 % Heinekin

Food was terrible! Lamb was chewy and sauces tasted like they came out of a jar! We will never eat here again. And would definitely not recommend

Good food. Delivery a bit slow.

Best Indian in the south merthyr area

Everything was nice, keema naan...nice, pathia....nice.....so on, so on.

Great food...Will def order again even though the bombay potatoes were missing

Amazing, pleasure to sit in now new owners put heating on

These Indian people are great they are back new ownership since a good few years ago

It's closed It's open again and to be recommended

Food was great had set meal for 2. Got to be one of the best Indian restaurant in the Merthyr Valley. Staff Helpful restaurant very clean and newly decorated

We had a takeaway. We didn't enjoy it. The Korma was not nice at all. Very sweet and the sauce was grainy. I even questioned if the correct dish had been ordered as it didn't taste like a korma. The £7.50 Indian bag in Tesco is much nicer. Sorry to post such a negative review, but we would not order from here again.

Great food great welcome just take your thermal underwear its freezing inside but they do delivery..

Just had the most delicious take away from here. Food was piping hot and absolutely delicious! Best take away by a million miles!

Absolutely delicious. Well worth a visit. Excellent service and very reasonably priced. Don't look at the decor, it's all about the food.

Never judge a book by its cover. This restaurant may not look like the swanky city centre types, but boy they work hard at producing an excellent meal with great service. I travel up and down the country finding great places to eat curry and having been to Brick Lane in London to Sparkbrook in Birmingham, I have tried lots of places to eat. This was among the best. The mix of spices were unique and the flavour poured from every mouthful. Really authentic cooking and staff who could not have made us feel more welcome. As I say look past the frontage of the building (and old hotel that looks nothing like a curry house) and step into taste heaven - the meal was outstanding and I will be back!

Really poor food staff got chip on there should 🥊

Absolutely awful service , Ordered a vegetarian option and found it had meat in . Rang up to say they have given me the wrong dish , no apology as it was not the wrong dish just it accidently had meat in . Disgusting service driver who came to collect the food was rude and arrogant and would not let me speak to the manager over the phone . After ringing back today and asking again to speak to the manager the driver hung up . Terrible customer service

Ali baba, what a legend. Best masala, super tasty. Thanks for having us, visit people..its good food, good price.

Lovely food, facilities let it down though. Broken toilets, lights etc.

The food is ok but the service since the new owners have taken over is terrible
