Onamika in Bexley

Lamentablemente, después de muchos meses de organizar una velada especial celebrando a mis padres el 60 aniversario de nuestra boda, nuestra velada fue un desastre. Después de esperar más de media hora para nuestra mesa, nos apresuramos a terminar nuestra comida - sin café o después de las bebidas - y nos dijeron que era porque cerraban a las 10 pm. Con esto en mente deberían haber considerado el hecho de que habíamos comenzado con más de media hora de retraso debido a sus errores con las tablas. Mis padres visitan este restaurante al menos una vez a la semana! y ser tratado tan injustamente es desgarrador! ! nos ha dejado a todos muy, muy, muy decepcionados! ! reservamos nuestra mesa hace más de 6 meses! : (

Great food always a pleasure to eat there Sam had me in stitches all night highly recommended

Fantastic food with good prices. Good service aswell.

Superb. Wonderful staff, great food, and an attractive environment. In particular, they ensured my disabled aunt was treated with care and respect.

A high quality Indian dining experience, with flavoursome foods and a caring service.

We were recommended this restaurant so we thought we would try it. We ordered a takeaway and delivery was on time. The food was very good indeed ..!!! We will definitely use again…Highly recommended.

Fantastic food, one of the best Indians I've had Byob too

Food, service and restaurant are all the best in town for Indian cuisine. The restaurant itself is always impeccably clean, the service is attentive in a welcoming and relaxed manner, but the food is the star of the show. Taking home a doggy bag as ordered way too much, but I can’t help it as it’s all so good (tandoori mixed grill balti bhuna very good). Treat yourself to a trip here is you appreciate good flavoured, well cooked food.

First visit and won't be the last. Very welcoming and service and attention was good throughout, very friendly and helpful staff, including with the children. Food was lovely, good portion size, hot and tasty. Boxed up what we couldn't eat. Price was average for this type of meal, but certainly good value considering the quality.

Been a lot food is always great service is always great always busy

First time here tonight read all the great reviews and thought we would give it a try. Not disappointed great food and great service well worth a second visit. Thank You

Always the best from Sam and co food is fresh and you can bring alcohol to restaurant

Really great food and service second to none...highly recommended.

Had a wonderful meal here. Food was nice and fresh and not oily. Service really friendly and welcoming. Would recommend.

Found a curry we finally enjoyed! The food arrived quickly and had lovely flavours. Would 100% order again. The only criticism is that it could've been a bit hotter as it arrived warm. Korma and Tikka were lovely.

First time eating there(26/08/23), really nice people, food really tasty and rich!

First time easing here, really good quality tasty food, lovely family run and friendly, will def visit again x

Lovely meal delicious food Lovely staff very friendly spot on ******

Amazing food as always, take your own drink, very lovely staff, polite and helpful, takeaway is just as nice! Still very hot, fast delivery and full of flavour

We had table booked for 8 , only tables left was 2 chairs facing wall or table by the door , we chose the wall , You can take your own drink , no alcohol licence Food prices were on the high side Meal was £122 for 4 mains , 3 rice , 3 Sides , 2 breads and some soft drinks Food arrived very quick after ordering a and they was not piping hot

Never had a bad meal here, the food is unbelievable whether you’re dining in or taking away. The atmosphere is great no matter who you’re with! Everyone who works here is so lovely, they always remember me and are so personable, will be back soon!

Friendly service excellent food i had the hari-yali lamb the lamb was so tender and perfectly spiced would recommend this restaurant to anyone

Great food . Great service. Lovely people

Good atmosphere and good you can take your own drinks, as pricing of items reflect higher price than other places Really disappointed with the tasteless food though. Last time we went there was about 4 years ago and was run my older members of the family, for which it was so so tasty but alas, extremely disappointed with the tasteless food 🥴 Had a nice time though but won’t be going again as other places so much more tasteful and not full of sugary sauces

Always fantastic food and service from Sam and his team.

Hands down, the best Indian restaurant in town. Service is always good and the food is amazing. The owner is a guy called Sam and if you’re lucky to catch him, he will make your night. Always helpful and makes sure his customers are happy. I couldn’t advise enough to go to this restaurant,

The food is nice but the portions of rice are very small. A vegetable biryani is like an ice cream scoop worth of rice. It’s like the rice is on rations. The papadums are £5 for 2 which is very expensive for papadums. Other than that we had a pleasant time here but probably won’t go back.

Lovely tasty food. The special rice was amazing, lovely flavours and cooked to perfection. The Lamb Madras was also tasty with lovely flavours, tender and great portion size. Perfect service, the restaurant was busy with a party of people and the service was still very good, the food arrived quickly and hot. The reason for the 4 star rating, this restaurant unfortunately doesn’t sell alcohol however they allow you to bring your own which for many customers’ is a good thing because it can save you ££££s. For me I wanted a cobra beer but I wouldn’t let this put me off as for next time I will bring a bottle. The decor of the establishment is modern, fresh and clean. Friendly staff and definitely will visit again.

Everything was really good. The staff were lovely and the place has a cute family run vibe and welcoming atmosphere. We very much enjoyed our meal and felt it was reasonably priced. Will be returning soon.

Best curry I've ever had. Brilliant staff. I'm now a regular. Not to be missed Update a few years later: just to confirm......still amazing. This place is a proper gem.

£7 for two plain naans - total rip-off!

Always a very friendly welcome when booking a table or at the restaurant. Interesting menu with some unusual ideas, like grated cheese on top of a chicken curry. All dishes well presented and tasty, representing good value. I have never had a bad dish much less a bad meal here.

Have been ordering food from Onamika for years. Definitely my favourite Indian restaurant. Food is delicious.

Enjoyed our meal. 4 of us had a selection of main meals and all dishes and sides were delicious. Friendly service busy restaurant. Byo alcohol worked well too. Parking available outside.

Food was amazing, price was good & they were so polite and lovely on the phone and at the door. My first time ordering and will definitely be ordering again!

I have been here before with my family and absolutely love it- beautiful restaurant and perfect atmosphere for all occasions!!! This time I was craving popadoms so ordered 2 for collection, when I arrived to collect, the boss said not to worry about paying and gave me more than what I had ordered as a kind gesture. He was so kind and talkative, So so happy with my popadoms and big pot of sauce! Much better than shop bought and the owner really made my day. Thank you!

Fab food - lamb chops are so tender !!! Fab friendly restaurant nothing too much trouble x

It's a small restaurant so can easily feel packed, especially post pandemic. But very quickly, that feeling is lost once you encounter its ambience, friendly staff, delicious food, and the pre lock-down company of friends. A great little curry house and a lovely evening.

Great service , food is amazing

Nice friendly service. Cant find fault with the food. Best pasanda I have ever had.

Can’t fault this restaurant. Great service and great food. Always a good night. New burger service is also a winner!

Ordered a takeaway from here after several recommendations by others! Food arrived and all looked unappealing. Taste was all bland with little flavour apart from curry leaves. Sorry won’t be ordering again.

Third visit to Onamika this evening with my in-laws and they were just impressed with the food as we were on our first visit. Tasty, filling and tender meat. The staff are always very welcoming and friendly, even remembered our baby from a year ago. :)

Been using these for a little over a year takeaways and sit in they are very friendly and above all the food is spot on !!

Fantastic restaurant, staff are amazing and there is an excellent range of traditional and newer dishes. Since finding Onamika the "Devils Advocate" Dish has been my goto curry for the past year. I can honestly say I have never had even an average dish from here, its all been great.

This restaurant is without a doubt the best contemporary Indian cuisine in the area (and further). So many different dishes to your usual ‘tikka masala’. Friendly, chatty staff and owner who always makes time for you. Fresh and hot yummy food.

Wonderful restaurant. Food is always delicious and so fresh and the family vibe and wonderful hospitality makes this a place you want to go back too. My favourite indian restaurant and the prices are so reasonable

Another excellent takeaway from Onamika Me and my family have been coming to Onamika for over 15 years, the food is always delicious hot and exceptional quality and value for money. Sam and his family always make you feel welcome and treats you like your apart of there family . I Wouldn’t use any other takeaway . Keep up the excellent work

Had my first ever Indian here at the age of 50. Food and staff were just awesome, go check’em out, you won’t be sorry 👊🏻😁

My favourite restaurant Fresh food full of flavour , perfect size portions in house and take away , always adding different items to the menu too . They cater for my allergies and my vegan friend too . It’s a great place to eat in , the staff and Sam make it . Total 5 star restaurant and take away

Food is amazing and the restaurant staff even better. They care for the community and Sam is an absolute gem !

Everything about this restaurant is awesome, the food is outstanding. The service you receive here is wonderful just like your part of the family, so friendly and welcoming. My family love eating here.

Absolutely brilliant, the customer service is 1st class and the food is amazing. I would highly recommend Thier Chat Chips.

I have takeaways from here probably most weekends. It’s so nice, such lovely flavour and just perfect food!

Food was amazing. Owners friendly and welcoming.

Very dissapointed with food tonight. Expensive and not as expected. My usual favourite dish Butter chicken had large pieces of chicken with no real flavour. Bombay potatoes and aubergine dishes were also flavourless. We have had the Biryani dishes which have been good, but won't be ordering these dishes again 😒

Had a big family birthday meal here and it was great. Manager was really helpful and accommodating and the food was excellent. Take your own alcohol. Highly recommended

The best Indian restaurant - have visited several times, the food is excellent and staff very friendly and accommodating. Definitely recommend.

Great food and service! Portions decent, food was tasty and not greasy. We will definitely come to Onamika again!

The best curry house in town!!! Excellent food and good atmosphere .

We went for a meal with friends and had a wonderful evening. Food was delicious, staff super likeable and a lovely friendly feel to the restaurant. You can take your own alcohol too and they supply wine coolers. Will be returning very soon.

First visit with my family for a birthday treat. Had a lovely meal. Service was great. Very friendly, fast and efficient. Food was delicious. Small place but great vibe. Had a fantastic time! Will definitely go back and will recommend to my friends. 10 out of 10.

Great food. Great Service. If you have not been you must try it. They also do takeaway.

We have ordered a few times from here and the meal has always been tasty and consistently good. The gentleman on the telephone taking the order is very professional and accommodating. The food is always served hot and on time. Although my cucumber riatha was in-between hot dishes in the bag on the last order so I had to put it in the freezer to cool the yoghurt back down. I have had many authentic dishes and these are on par of not better. The meat is good quality and will definitely not hesitate to recommend. Will definitely be regulars!

Best chicken tikka bhuna around, friendly people who run the restaurant too

Went with a friend on a Sunday night - the place was quite busy with a good atmosphere. Service friendly and the food great plus well priced. Despite it being quite busy there was no rush and we had a great time. The bring your own alcohol wasn't awkward at all - I'd never been to a restaurant with that policy but it was fine and as we brought out our bottle of wine a wine cooler was provided. A lovely restaurant and recommended.

Really nice and friendly staff. Delicious food. Bring your own booze and buy soft drinks there.

This is the best Indian Restaurant i have been to. The food was excellent. Staff & facilities were spot on. Nothing was to much trouble, and the staff were happy to make any changes to our order. Wonderful experience would highly recommend

Great little restaurant, very friendly and lovely curries... bring your own drinks as well. Looking forward to my next visit

Friendly staff and excellent service, the food portion sizes are just right. The food itself is some of the best Indian food I have ever eaten, full of flavour and freshly cooked. The lamb was cooked to perfection, no grissel or chewy bits.

Another excellent meal at the Onamika

The food is amazing and the staff are so friendly and accommodating.

Good food and great atmosphere. My 8 year old grandson thinks it is brilliant and really enjoyed the poppadoms😎 Will definitely make sure we go again

Used to order from here when we used to live in Barnehurst over ten years ago and drove past with my wife late this afternoon and found it being open and said we need to order from there again. Long story short, we searched the internet for the menu, called them to the delight of them delivering to where we live now. Called back and ordered and was told an hour-ish for the delivery and mentioned we used to come all those years ago and he remembered me and described me from just telling him where I used to live. Now that IS DEFINITELY fantastic customer service and a mega great memory lol Food arrived within thirty minutes so even better and dished up and both ate the lot.. Absolutely fantastic experience and the food was out of this world and definitely one to go back to once again, time and time again..... Once fully open from pandemic, a visit to the actual restaurant will be made for a sit down meal and catch up with the owner. Thanks once again Onamika, glad to have you back in our lives ❤️💜💖

We have been ordering from Onamika for about 5 years now and they have never failed to deliver the best Indian food in town! I am of Indian heritage and I can say with confidence that their food is like traditional home-cooked Indian food. Our favourite is the garlic chilli chicken and lamb bhoona, but we also love the biryanis. This take away is always our go to place when we order Indian food in and around Bexleyheath/Erith. Also, customer service has always been brilliant. Thank you team Onamika.

Ordered tonight, paid by card over the phone, polite staff, was told food would be delivered between 45mins to an hour, food was delivered in 35mins. When delivered the food was pipping hot and was so nice. Onimika spice is a brilliant restaurant when your allowed to visit and takeaway and delivery is excellent all in perfect condition. Would highly recommend this place.

Good traditional Indian cuisine. No alcohol served however. Friendly staff and nice price too

Excellent food , friendly and polite service Having eaten in many times and enjoyed regular take aways too, I decided to treat my very choosy sister ( a great chef ) and my well travelled nephew ( also a food critic) . We had tandoori shashlick , tandoori chicken and a korai shabzi with pilau rice and various naan popadoms and mixed pickles , all dishes were plentiful and tasty and all tasted unique My sister is a very difficult one to please and gave it full marks ! As did my nephew . They work so hard here and are always helping those less fortunate and giving away freebies ! I’ve never ever had a single complaint - well only being too full up !! Thankyou onamika

Food is great everyone is always so helpfull 👍

Food = deliicious and fairly priced Staff = very friendly and polite

The best Indian takeaway /restaurant by far. Nothing is too much trouble for Samad and the team. The food is always fresh, arrives hot and they will make you anything not on the menu upon request. The service from ordering to delivery is always excellent. Give it a try if you have not already done so

Amazing food! Usually go for a Korma and mushroom rice but they kindly suggested a passanda with medium spice which was absolutely lovely. Nanns are nice and neat samosas are lovely... will definitely order from here again would fully recommend

We won the Meal for 2 on Facebook this week. The food was amazing, we had starters and mains. A fabulous selection and a great treat. Friendly staff. Please support your local businesses. We definitely recommend Spice Onamika Restaurant.

WOW.... awesome food. Only started going there since the refurb. But the food is tip top. Try the Sagorana medium to hot. In fact forget the menu ask what they recommend. You won't be disappointed

Disgusting and owfull food. Used to be very good in this area but went down hill now.

We ordered the meal for a delivery it was an hour & half coming i had to ring to find out were it was and it was one of the worst meals I've had in a long time and for that price i expected better.

NOT EVEN WORTH ONE STAR!!!Came here with family ordered starters aswell as mains...mains arrived erm we ordered starters manager in background says oh wrong table (now bearing in mind we actually ordered the same for our main) starters finally arrived... absolute rubbish...we then waited nearly 25 mins for our (reheated) mains to arrive.Only for them to forgot most of the chappati that some of us had ordered...I waited nearly 15 mins by this time my dish was stone cold... They came out with the chappati i said my dish is cold he said well what do you want me to do about it...erm reheat it for the 3 time...l he took the dish in huff. Anyway food was disgusting....how anyone can say the food is great is beyond me...all the dishes were red in colour everything tasted exactly the same regardless of ordering several different dishes... People that live in that area or come into it and say best restaurant around obviously have no taste whatsoever! have no idea what real authentic Indian food is and that different dishes have different flavoursWILL NEVER BE COMING HERE AGAIN

Outstanding as usual...great food even better staff..

Quality service and food. They serve soft drinks however if you wanted to you can bring your own alcohol (they provide glasses), which we actually found to be a plus

Best food, great atmosphere. Nothing is too much trouble, they will also adapt the food to suit, make it more or less spicy if you want. You can also take your own alcohol as they don’t t sell it. They only sell soft drinks. Definitely the best food in Barnehurst.

Hadn't booked a table but they happy to accommodate us. Very very busy so had to give it a go. Can see why. Food was fast and very very nice. Staff were lovely. With the current eat out for half price you couldn't make it much cheaper yourself. Take your own alcohol drinks. Coke and water available but unfortunately wasn't able to order a coffee

Ate here last night with our friends who are regular dine in and takeaway customers. The food is served fresh and hot, the best sag paneer I have had. Varied menu with some new choices. Staff are friendly and lively despite being extremely busy. No alcohol licence but will provide glasses etc for alcohol bought in. There are several shops nearby to purchase drinks. They sell soft drinks and water so no outside soft drink purchases to be taken in. A small restaurant so booking is essential at anytime.A great eating out experience in a lively atmosphere serving top class food.Highly recommended

First time for us in this restaurant Food really nice and service great. Staff so friendly and could not do enough for us.

Had a amazing meal here, food tasty fantastic and staff were very friend. Well sectioned to support social distancing. Can't wait to visit again soon.

Always pleasure to meet Sam and his team, and the food is always delicious... top top restaurant and lovely food

Well I've been waiting to visit here for months after seeing them online. Hubby not a lover of indian food took some persuading, the food was amazing, even he enjoyed it. Staff warm and friendly. Cannot wait to return.

The best Indian takeaway in the area - delicious food, delivered hot and fresh. Staff are also friendly

Was taken to this fine restaurant last night my a fiend who lives local. Top notch food and staff, despite having to travel for 40 minutes will visit again.As others have said the restaurant does not have an alcohol license, so take your own.The dishes are a pound or so dearer than my usual restaurant in London, however the fact that you take your own alcohol still works out reasonable.There is a Sainsbury's 30 yards away where you can buy beer and wine etc.Well worth a visit.

Best in the borough, food and staff are the best

Most pathetic Indian food that I ever tasted in my entire life. Naans were full of coconut filling. Vegetable dishes is full of coconut filling. A typical Bangladeshi restaurant operating in name of Indian restaurant.
