Absolutely brilliant food as always, Lamb Karahi was melt in the mouth, Chicken Samber and Chicken Tikka Masala both superbly cooked. Served by Naim this evening and he was very attentive and pleasant. A 30% discount for January makes this very affordable and unbeatable value for money. Thanks Pandora.

The whole experience at Pandora was brilliant. We were asked if we wanted a more spacious table for our family. The service was superb with everything coming out quickly. The staff were very friendly and could not be more helpful with the food selection. The food itself was delightful and we loved it, we will definitely be back soon!

First visit and will be going back. The food was really good, as was the service. We would have enjoyed the visit more if we hadn't been restricted in our purchases by the amount of cash that we had on us. It was only when we saw the sign on the door as we entered that we discovered that the place only accepted cash, not cards. Very unusual for a restaurant these days.

Visited there a few days ago with a group of friends. One of my friends is allergic to nuts and fish so she is very cautious when she goes out to eat. And we haven’t met in while so this place looked fine as there’s chicken options she can choose from. When discussing with the worker her allergies and her food concerns he was being helpful but also proceeded to say “why do you go out then” which I thought was rude. Just because she’s allergic, she shouldn’t be able to go out?? Anyways we ordered, waited an hour for starters to arrive. Which were nice. Then waited another hour after that for mains. And by that time I wasn’t even hungry anymore and the food wasn’t it for me. Some of my friends liked theirs. The place looks very pretty. There were people out for their Xmas dinners so it was busy but also very loud. One of the waiters was really lovely and kind and kept apologising for the wait. But I wouldn’t recommend or want to visit again

It was gone 9pm on a rainy Monday night, so unsurprisingly we had the place to ourselves, but the staff were attentive and friendly and when the food arrived it was amazing.. the butter chicken was the best I’d ever had, my friends also were pleased with their dishes.. and it was a reasonable price too.. very good value for a very good experience… We shall definitely be back!

In my opinion, I haven't eaten at a better Indian restaurant while living in the north of England. I have lived in this area for 24 years and in all of that time I have had more Indian meals than I care to remember. Most of them have been forgettable. Some have been enjoyable. But Pandora takes it to another level. Every dish I have had there has been memorable and of the highest quality. Every person I have shared the experience of eating there with has said the same about there dishes. Food, and eating, is all a matter of taste. What one man loves, the next finds ordinary and underwhelming. But I defy anyone not to enjoy the food at Pandora. And to top it all, the staff are first class too.

Went after a long shift at work. Booked a table but there was no need as only a handful of tables occupied (8pm, Friday) Attentive staff, took our drinks order which came swiftly. Same time we ordered poppadoms. 30 mins later and another drink in the side plates were taken and we queried the poppadoms whereabouts. Frantic tapping in of the till and then 5 mins later an excuse that they were “taken to the wrong table”. We were assured they would be on the house. Eventually arrived - excellent quality and very good. Main courses - chicken samber was more than spicy 🥵. Biriyani was good and chilli Nan good also. Poppadoms were still on the bill… All in all with now 4 curry restaurants within walking distance, we won’t go again.

I was impressed. The staff were so accommodating and helpful. The menu had everything on it that I wanted and it was so all so fragrant and appetising. the wine selection is good and the meals are copious. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal there. You have to pay with cash and there isn't a ATM nearby which, for me , was not a problem, but be aware. There doesn't seem to be a parking area. I enjoyed my meal there and will go back soon.

The food and cocktails/mocktails were outstanding. The service was excellent, really nice and attentive staff in a lovely, comfortable and clean environment. I would’ve like a dessert but they didn’t do any but it didn’t ruin the experience for us as we were pretty full anyway from the gorgeous food and I was just being greedy. No card payments accepted as they prefer cash but they were happy for me to do a bank transfer, which I did. All in all we loved it and it’s well worth a visit.

Positives: Atmosphere is nice in the restaurant. Food is really tasty, and they have a lot of variety They also have a good selection of cocktails Good vegetarian options Negatives: - Portion sizes are really small for the price you pay. They dress the dishes up but in other restaurants you’d get double the portion. For context, a paneer curry had about 6 pieces of paneer in it. For £12 it’s not really good enough. - Service was a little slow, and they’d forgotten an item or two - Cash only. Enough said.

As a person who just moved into the area I'd thought I'll give the place a try as I've heard good reviews how wrong I was. After being sat down with a table 10-15 mins in no acknowledgement of what I would like to order we were literally in their eyeline at the front. It's something I'll never go again and would rather travel to other places

We had a group booking for new years eve 2024 at 7pm , We were seated in the party room because there were 23 of us. Our daughter had given in a pre-order for all our food, the room was very noisy we were all shouting across the table to be heard, we were boxed into the corner right near the speakers, the man doing the dj didn't play any decent music it was just very loud and head banging music no vocals, it seemed to be the same awful tune all the time. my husband went to ask him if he could play Christmas songs and he just ignored him. the waiter came to put starters out then walked away left us all wondering when the rest of us would get our starters, when the main dishes finally came again confusion as to who had ordered what, we couldn't hear what the waiter was saying because the music was too loud, again the waiter walked away leaving the dishes on the trolly, another waiter came to help, my daughter also went to help as she knew who was having what. half were given the dishes without the plates so had to wait, then some had already eaten their meal before the rest of us were served, it was a fiasco we all felt stressed, l asked the waiter to please turn down the music so we could hear, which he did but not by much. My dish was Chicken in breadcrumbs with chips and salad, the Chicken nothing to write home about. My husband had scampi which was hard and salty, he didn't eat his meal. Our daughter got so stressed with it all it put her off eating too. Then a woman came in with her family sat down at the table near ours and started vaping, l heard her say there are no signs to say no vaping so she will vape, which she did, we had 4 babies with us in our party plus 4 other children. Not respectful at all. I did complain as did quire a few of our party about the service or lack of! we were given money off our bill, l got 90p off mine, I WONT BE GOING THERE AGAIN. Infact done of us will!!!

Ordered lamb rogan josh. Never had a single spice in it. Just lamb and covered in red tomato paste.a tiny bit of onion and coriander everywhere. Disgusting . Been coming years never again. So disappointing
