New Viceroy in Caerphilly

Lovely place, friendly staff, great service, amazing food, large portions and great price! Stuffed now. Highly recommended. Veggie options available too.

Amazing food and amazing service wouldn't go anywhere else ♡

Amazing quality and amazing food .staff are amazing never had a bad meal

Food was excellent but service was less than good as the staff were more interested in the football on the TV

It was a new restaurant for me and my wife to try. From the quality of food and service you provided we congratulate you and your staff Regards Dai Groesfaen farm

Fabulous food, friendly staff and great service. Portions are generous 🙂

Great food Little slow on service Onion bahjees lovely Samosas too small & look like from frozen

Excellent service and staff very helpful and friendly. Food and plates hot.

Been to this Indian quite a few times and never disappoints. Great customer service and great food.

Ordered a meal to collect, grate service food was incredible!! Pipping hot, full of flavour and delicious. Will definitely be ordering again.

Very tasty food and a huge selection of authentic dishes. Staff were friendly and attentive. Portion sizes are massive and great value for money. We'll be coming here again!

About fab Indian would recommend it to anyone

Lovely ambiance, attentive friendly staff, delicious food.

Staff very obliging and helpful. Quite a while since we have used this restaurant but will be returning back soon either for a sit down meal or takeaway.

Stopped for a takeaway on our way home as the reviews looked good. It was not good at all. The CTM was dyed bright red, really thick, like jam or porridge and very, very sweet. I have never seen or tasted Tikka Masala that colour and with such a weird texture. A tiny pot of creamy sauce was in the bag, that was tasteless too. I stirred it into the CTM but it did not improve the taste.The Korma also very sweet but with no flavour of anything, just bland. The 2 medium sauces for Lamb tasted OK but the one was just a pot of onions with hardly any sauce. The Dopiaza was the only decent sauce. It was really good. They did manage to cook plain rice and poppadoms that were edible. If I lived closer I would have taken the whole lot back and made them taste it. £30 wasted. While waiting, I tried to have a conversation with the man on the till and it was like talking to the wall. Zero interest in me and my questions about delivering curry. Try harder mate, especially as it was a Tuesday and there were just 2 people in there plus me. Horrible. Never again.

Food lovely and plentiful, in fact I had to take half of it home to have the next day, which is absolutely fine with me 😁 Naan bread was one of the nicest I've had in the local area. Restaurant is a little chilly so make sure you wear/take a jumper/cardigan that you can put on if you're cold.

Best lamb balti I’ve ever had and I’ve had alot around the world, honestly the best.

Could not fully appreciate the atmosphere because we only had a take away. But will defo be going there for a sit meal soon. Food was fab and the service was on point

Rang at 18.35 to order food for delivery at 20.00. I rang 5 times as the food still hadn’t arrived by 20.35, was told the driver was there (he wasn’t) and that the would knock £10 off, I waited until 20.45 then rang to cancel the order. He told me they were very busy - which isn’t my problem when I rang 1.5 hours in advance. The driver then called me back saying they’d do it for half price, to which we advised we had already cancelled the order. He still wasn’t outside. Such a shame as I used to visit this Indian many times in the restaurant. Will never order from here again and will advise others to avoid.

My favourite Indian love the food new soft furnishings and deco looks really smart

I'm love my Curry and I can definitely say this is the best around. I would recommend the Chicken madras, Lamb Rezzala, chicken tikka Dopiaza and the chicken tikka biryani is out of this world. Top quality food. Don't be shy and try the speciality dishes like the Hydabaddi chicken chilli massala. If you want the best look no further.

Curry’s were lovely. Pathia and Malaya. But the portion of Chips for £3.50 was pitiful. Best off getting them elsewhere on way home if picking up takeaway. Otherwise it was a lovely meal.

Just tried the buffet food excellent lamb jalfrazi chicken Tikka balti and kema nan lovely staters also...very very good pls come.😃

Food was amazing, The best Indian restaurant in Merthyr. Fast delivery. I will order from this restaurant for sure. I’m really recommending this place 🤤

Tryed this indian tonight and it was absolutely amazing cheap as chips and well worth the money, Staff are friendly and are so welcoming ❤️ Would highly recommend and would definitely be back

Beautiful food as always. Its the one place we always return to. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere. I've never had a bad meal from here. Tried a duck curry tonight and was impressed by how tender it was. The onion bhaji's can't be beaten either :)

Me and my family went to the vice Roy of India last night and it was such an enjoyable experience with the authentic India food. The service was excellent, our food came out very quick and it was very hot. It was nice too see that Sam is taking back in charge in the coming weeks he also told us that card payment is coming very soon.

The best Indian meal I've had in a long time and good service too. Highly recommended.

Just had a meal for 2 delivered to Bargoed. For a takeaway restaurant quantity spot on👍

A friend and I went for the “buffet”, which is no longer a help yourself style buffet but actually a fixed price set menu, which isn’t as clear as it could be in terms of what you can have. The food, as ever, was really good, and we enjoyed it very much. However it took the gloss off the evening as grumpy Sam was even less friendly than usual. And there were mistakes. We didn’t get every dish we ordered and when my companion asked where the missing dish was she was told she didn’t order it (she did, I heard her). One of my sides didn’t arrive either but as the starters had been bigger portions than I expected and I didn’t think I would be able to eat it all, I didn’t push it any further. It took two attempts to get the glass of water. We got poppadums we didn’t ask for, so we ate them anyway. At the end of the meal, we had enough leftover food for another meal for one, so we asked if we could take it home. At which point we discovered that this is the only restaurant either of us have ever been to where we have been charged for containers to take food home rather than it being thrown away. We paid, but it really left a sour taste, and spoiled the evening out. It felt like a really mean thing to do. I know times are hard for hospitality but I would prefer to pay a little more for the meal and have a free container if I needed one. When it came to payment, which is cash only, the bill was put down in front of me very briefly then taken to the till so that the items could be rung up, and it wasn’t brought back. What should have been a lovely evening out with a friend I haven’t seen for a couple of years was spoiled by Sam's attitude. Well, I won’t be back, and I won’t be recommending it to any of my Airbnb guests in future either. And the few pennies saved on the provision of free foil takeaway containers has lost the restaurant quite a lot of pounds.

Our family came down for Christmas and made a last minute booking at the Viceroy for 8 people. Was welcomed by Sam and from the time we sat down to when we left, received the best service. Food and drink was presented promptly but most important was the food. We all ordered totally varied dishes but they were without question the most delicious Indian food we have tasted.

Says online open until 23:00. Tried to cal before going there and no answer on phone, walked in before 22:30 and door was unlocked and said they were closed when walking in. Either opening hours are incorrect online or may decide to close earlier depending on how busy they are, so worth calling before or going elsewhere, if you want a takeaway.

We have been and sat in, and then had to come up for takeaway as this place is the best we have had in years! Full of flavour, good portions. Good price. Amazing staff.

Excellent food and exceptionally tasty fantastic service and great staff and reasonably priced will definitely return

I used to eat here once a week when my late wife was alive, i now live 175miles away, so when i came up to her grave there was only one place to eat, best indian around. 10 out of 10

Been using this place over 20 years, fab food everytime, Sam and his team always goes above and beyond to ensure all is just right.

The food is great but the service could be improved.

Came here last minute as we only live a street away, thought we’d treat ourselves as we never go out because of money problems, get greeted by a very rude man pointing at the cash only sign (we had already called to book) Asked him could he seat me when my boyfriend went to get the cash out.. We sat down and the server kept saying ‘that it’ ‘that it’ ‘that it’ My partner asked aw is this my girlfriends curry (had no peppers etc in it) and the other one did and he said no that’s yours, so conor was like oh normally I’m the one with the peppers because I like it hot, and she doesn’t and he said ‘should’ve picked a different curry then’ We had originally asked what certain curries for the menu were like and we had been told to read the discriptions on the menu!!!! My partner asked for another drink for me and the same man rolled his eyes So then my partner asked if there was an issue, and he followed by holding my partners shoulders shaking him and said ‘enjoy your food boy’ VERY VERY PATRONISING, especially as he is 25 and not a ‘boy’ It got to the point where it was very awkward and we had to leave without eating our food, and they continued to charge us the full amount, therefore we paid £60 for 4 popadoms, chicken pakora starter and a try of our curry… I am disgusted with this service, and it left my partner very upset and embarrassed which has made me even more angry! I will NEVER come here again, and if you want good service for what y oh are paying for I would advise never going here!

Ordered in advance and waited no time when I arrived, food was delicious, we had a vegetable Byriani , gorgeous

I hadn't been to this restaurant for some years, so when I found myself in Ystrad tonight thought I'd pop in with my son for a little treat. Restaurant was deserted, with just one other table occupied. I announced that we hadn't booked but could they accommodate a table for two - we were show to a table next to the toilets by the waiter. We were asked if we wanted drinks fairly quickly, which is where it started to feel a bit odd - My son asked about what lagers and ciders were available but the waiter directed all of his answers to me......odd...but not the end of the world. We ordered drinks, poppadoms, chutney tray and main course, sat back and waited. The drinks and the poppadoms arrived quickly and we tucked in straight away - all good - 5 minutes passed and the rather sullen waiter came up and announced our food was ready...not sure what he wanted us to do about it - given we'd only just started eating our poppadoms....never the less, we moved our food out of the way for the main course to be brought out. It then took a full 10 minutes to bring out the food......it all arriving in stages. I had to go and ask for the chips whilst the rest of the food was cooling. I'd understand if it was busy, but the guy serving us was stopping for a chat everytime he went past his colleague. When the naan's came out the colleague squuzed them and nodded before they were brought over - lovely to have had our food handled by both the chef in the kitchen, the waiter bringing out the food, and the colleague stood by the bar. We started to eat, food was good. Whilst I had finished mine and my son was still powering through his, the waiter came to clear the table - I find this extremely rude and bad practice - why would you clear away part of the table whilst one of the party were still eating??? In some respects I'd understand if they were busy, or if we were really slow - but there was still only one other table occupied, and we'd only been in there for about 30 minutes or so. I paid our bill at the bar, as it appeared the waiter was far too "busy" to come over after we'd finished our meal. Shame. Food was decent. Service was appauling.

I was staying with a friend and we always go here of a meal it was as good as usual

A very enjoyable meal with a friend who normally will nt eat curry. I suggested a Lamb or Chicken Passanda, which is mild. He really enjoyed his meal, as I did mine which was suggested by Sam, the restaurant proprietor.

Awful food used to be good gone rubish if you want waterd down curry tastles chicken and hard rice

Starters were amazing, as were mains, very clean, friendly service, would definitely visit again! Very reasonable price for what we ordered.

Food was good and came quickly.

Worst curry I have ever had full of oil never again plus £4 delivery to Gelligaer shocking

It’s a shame because the food was a good quality and was enjoyable once it arrived. The issue was the service, and mainly that it took 2 hours from arrival to serve the mains, and we had to prompt the staff to even order our mains. It is also not ideal that the restaurant cannot serve alcohol and doesn’t accept card payment, both for which we had to walk to the local SPAR to buy some drinks and take out cash.

Unfortunately, the 2hr wait the for food and lack of service/resource at the restaurant meant that a get together with work colleagues was not quite as good as it should've been. Food was lovely when it arrived... But took far too long. License issue meant that no Alcohol was able to be served as well... Many things needs to be improved.

Excellent food friendly staff a taste of India

Very poor service several dishes were not available and the waiter service took forever to take our full order.

Ate there Saturday night....the food was nice...but waited 25mins for a drink after arriving... and when he eventually did come to take our order he was the most rude and arrogant man I've ever encountered, when we left we said goodbye and he just blanked us. We will never go there again. Good luck if your going, your going to need it.

Paid £17.00 for a prawn curry with 4 prawns in. The keema naan had very little meat inside, after phoning to ask what had happened. The person on the phone hung up.

Really nice meal get a lot for your money Ended up taking home a doggy bag as we cudnt finish it all

Wonderful food, friendly staff. Lovely restaurant, ideal for all ages and all occasions.

Food is great. The service and welcome is poor.

Food was absolutely amazing however plates were chipped and table cloths stained with food from the night before. Staff were a little disorganised. I've been here before and the food is always fantastic as well as the service, hope it picks back up.

Not as good as they use to be. Food was bland, salad not fresh and chicken undercooked

Restaurant quality straight to the door. Really impressed.

Fresh, tasty and professional staff. Best Indian take away in the area 👏

Loved the food, and really friendly and polite staff

Lovely meal, friendly helpful staff.

I’ve ordered your food from here Many times I’ve always ordered chicken Parthia I ask for it to be mild and they always say yes we do it mild most of the time it’s nice most the time it’s too spicy I phoned up this evening the lady answered at the front desk I asked for a chicken Parthia extra mild they told me I’m better off having something else I told her I don’t want nothing else and she got Asi and put the phone down on me if you wanna order from here Then it’s your prerogative but I think the attitude of the staff needs to be retrained and they need to think about all they are talking to at the end of the day we are the customers and without us they wouldn’t run a business I will never order from here again that’s it I’m done

Food is always a delight and everyone is so friendly. Thanks for the amazing food

Amazing food!! Also serve so quick!! Best curry around

The trouble with reviewing The Viceroy is that it's just the same old review each time........just excellent. Top quality food and menu choices, excellent service.

Waiting staff were great and helpful. The guy who was possibly the owner / manager wasn't impressed I was a solo diner. Told this was one of the best indian restutants around so had to give it a go. The frozen samosa starters were tasty but the chicken Curry was simply overcooked and bland. The best way to describe it was a over done stew. Real shame as the waiters were doing a great job apart from the chef and manager.

The food is always delicious! Cooked to a very high standard! I am a regular customer and always happy to have food from here!

The food here is amazing .. being the daughter of a bengali chef I've eaten indian food all my life so I know when indian food is good .. 5 star service and the food is excellent 👌

We have been eating here for years, ex service, lovely food. So welcoming and friendly. We always reccommend to all our friends

I like your food very much, I eat it with a lot of fun

First class service. Amazing food! And all the lads are a cracking bunch and very pleasant

Delicious food every time, well managed polite staff who are always happy to help. Large portion sizes and reasonably priced menu makes this my favourite restaurant and take out.

Absolutely amazing meals everytime, and the staff are very friendly and helpful

An amazing place to dine locally. Good food, attentive service. Will definitely recommend 👏

lovely place in a small village. was visiting a friend and we had some lovely indian food from this restaurant! 5 stars for food and services!!

Visited many times for the buffet on a Sunday but sadly, it seems to have gone downhill. The staff were miserable and we did not feel very welcome. Poor service and the food was nothing special. Will not be visiting again.

Had the help yourself buffet. Lovely selection of dishes, all well cooked. Friendly staff.

Amazing food - favourite take away by far!

Came for food tonight. Have to say the food was outstanding but the service was terrible. Will defo be back here for the food.

this restaurant has had a lovely make over, which has freshener up the interior. There curries are of a high standard. very nice atmosphere.

Lovely food and people, good prices , authentic atmosphere

We visit regularly when they have a buffet night. The food is tasty and plentiful. The staff are always polite and pleasant.

Never had a bad meal, very tasty 😋

Great place,food and service highly recommended

Expensive but worth every penny stunning food great staff

We went on a buffet night. Food was excellent, plenty of choice. Very friendly staff.

Friday 24th May 2019. I just enjoyed a stunning meal at the Viceroy of India as always. Been coming here for years now and have always enjoyed good food, great service and great hospitality. Look forward to next time. Cheers

Excellent food and service. Fantastic menu.

Lovely food as always and great service

Lovely food, courteous and attentive staff, would be helpful to have a selection of vegetarian dishes on buffet evenings.

Ginger jimmy said it ain’t all tha

Just had a delicious meal at the Viceroy. Lovely fast friendly service. Very reasonably priced. Would highly recommend

Although a 1 Star rating this Indian meal was really good. Would recommend, great staff with character and really effectient.

Always an excellent meal from Sam and his staff.

Lovely comfortable place and not over busy, staff could be more friendly but food was amazing

I took the family to the buffet evening (Monday) and wish I'd gone to my usual Indian restaurant. The place looked nice but that's my only praise, the buffet consisted of one type of rice and four curries all were unlabelled so I've no idea what they were supposed to be. I tried all four curries and think the chefs should be ashamed to call them Indian cuisine! there were no spices involved and each curry was flavourless, bland and the meat was dry. I won't be returning and I'm ashamed to say that I did actually pay the bill. On the plus side I did enjoy the poppadom

Used to be excellent food and service, but this year both have gone downhill. We've been going there for about 15 years but give it a miss now.
