waited 2 hours for the order they accepted and took my money for, called numerous times and got no response. Eventually drove down to the restaurant and it was closed for refurbishment. Really disappointed

We ordered from here on a Saturday night, knowing it would be a little busy, and having not ordered from here previously. The staff contacted us just before the food was due to let us know it would be a bit later and to apologise for this, which I felt was a lovely thing to do as most places would wait for you to contact them. I should add now that the food was only 10 minutes late, so it made it even more appreciated that they had taken the time to call no matter how late the food would be. When the food arrived, the delivery driver (who was sent directly from the restaurant and not through UberEats, Just Eat etc) also apologised for the food being a little late. Everything was piping hot still and the portion sizes were really good, especially for the very reasonable prices. The food tasted great and the meal was filling, and we had plenty of leftovers. I’m glad we decided to try somewhere different as I feel confident knowing that I could rely on a good meal where I feel that any issues would be properly dealt with by the restaurant in a professional manner.

The is the best Indian restaurant in sidcup! Great food & service. The only negative is that they never have enough cold bottles of Kingfisher!

I've never had a problem ordering takeaway from Papadam. Always been nice food. However, on this occasion, I ordered a 1.5l Coca Cola costing £2.50 to go with my meal. A 330ml can of Coca Cola came. Phoned up & explained the situation, thinking it might have been a mistake. Lady answered & then pass me on to a man. He said that it was my fault for not ordering a bottle instead. There is no option to order either a can or bottle. Luckily I took a screenshot of the menu I ordered from via their App. I would never order a can of coke for £2.50! As for blaming me, I will no longer use this Indian again. Shame.

Our party food was fantastic! We had the guys from Papadam cater for our party last night. The food was beautiful. It arrived on time, piping hot and delicious! We used to cater for our own parties but after eating at this fabulous restaurant we decided to use them Raj was helpful and suggested the best dishes and organised the serving dishes and heating devices to keep it all hot. Our guest were all highly complimentary of all the dishes. If you haven’t tried this restaurant, you should. People tell us all the time about different Indian restaurants, and usually they are all much of a muchness, Papadam is very different. If you need any occasion catered for, these guys won’t let you down.

First takeaway tonight , i will say honesty that two meals out of four were nice, However I do not enjoy my food rainbow coloured. Why the need to do this? My son had Tikka Masala and I thought it was a carton full of ketchup. Yoghurt dip Canary Yellow? My Salmon Tikka also very Red with just a pile of greasy fried onions thrown on top, peppers would have been nice. Popadoms all crushed and broken. It was the same price (not cheap ) as another Indian restaurant close by but half the quality in my opinion. I don't think I would rush back. Drop the colourings honestly its not needed.

I ordered a take away for my wife as I was going out and I have an account with this restaurant. The food arrived very quickly and was very poor quality: Chicken Balti - The chicken was overcooked and hard and clearly had not been cooked in the sauce Basmati rice - The rice was cold nd congealed Mushroom bhaji - The mushrooms were virtually raw and tasteless Paratha - Cold The bil was more than £17 and virtually all of it went into the bin. We have used Papadom many times in the past but will NOT be going back.

I have eaten here every week during the “Eat Out To Help Out” and on all 3 occasions the food has been outstanding. Every dish, I have had from the rice to main course has been prepared to perfection. The solitary waiter does an amazing job, running round keeping everybody happy, and providing excellent service. Papadam really is up there with the best Indian food in the area. Compliments to the kitchen and the very busy waiter.

Myself and my husband visited here Saturday 29th Feb 2020 for dinner whilst staying at the Travelodge hotel in Sidcup. The food was gorgeous and reasonable priced, a calm and pleasant atmosphere, the staff attentive and possible the most welcoming and generous Ive come across. A little further off the end of the high street, it is worth walking a little further down to this hidden gem! We will definitely be returning and recommending for eating in and take away/delivery!

I ate here on Christmas Eve with my family and head a lovely meal. I went for the tandoori mixed grill and a few side dishes. All were cooked really well. The service was good and we were well looked after. We were also given a free drink on the house following our meal which was a nice touch.

Went last night with another couple the waiter was really pleasant, which is more than can be said about the food. Took awhile for the waiter to arrive, although wasn’t his fault as he was on his own. My starters was the fish cake which when it arrived looked ok until I ate it, it was absolutely tasteless all it tasted of was unseasoned potato hardly a trace a fish. This was followed by one of their speciality called Farcha, it arrived in a really pasty thick sauce that again didn’t have much flavour. My husband didn’t enjoy his meal either, we shall not be going back not to our taste...

We have just moved back to Sidcup (after 20 years), and while moving into our now home have been trying some of the local restaurants which has been enjoyable. We really thought we had found a treat with this restaurant as we had eaten here twice in the last week and really enjoyed the service, food and general experience. However, we took our 3 children in here (ages 8, 7 and 2 weeks) this evening and unfortunately near the end of our meal my son spat a large piece of sharp plastic in bedded in his Naan which ate and spat out. I calmly informed the waiter (who had been pleasant previously) and i expected his responsive to be very apologetic and a explanation of how it wouldn't happen again. However, he said that the plastic was not burnt so therefore was not be in the food and my son was lying. I explained this was my 3rd visit to the restaurant in 10 days and again he accused me of lying (im happy to provide receipts), finally, he asked me to pay the bill and i refused due to a LARGE piece of plastic being in a 8 years olds foods, he accused us of "being one of those customers". I accuse you of Being "one of those restaurants", A response from a manager would be good (hopefully this guy wasn't the owner if so should be reported),. Shame on you!

I will not be ordering food here again. I ordered vegetable samosas and thought it tasted weird and after inspecting the item I noticed it chicken in it! Both me and my boyfriend are vegetarian and he had already eaten his after I made the discovery. I lost my apetite and so did my boyfriend. My brother who had the chicken tikka confirmed that it contained chicken after tasting it. We spent £40 on food which we did not finish. I called the restaurant and complained and they apologised but did not offer money back or even a free meal, the only compensation given was free vegetable samosas with next order. That will never happen as I will never order here again.

The Papadam is a small restaurant at the end of the High Street at the top of Sidcup Hill, but don’t be fooled - they serve the best curry in the South East. The service used to be a bit slow, which was its only fault, but now even this is good. I can’t recommend this place high enough

Do Not visit this restaurant if you are a vegan me and my brother went for a Christmas meal I ordered a vegetable dish I asked the waiter before I ordered and he said mixed vegetables so I ordered it. When it arrived I began eating it but I noticed something else in with the dish so I asked the waiter what was it and he replied cheese to which I replied I am allergic to cheese and told him to take it away and he said well U could just eat the vegetables but I was already beginning to feel sick. When the Bill arrived he charged me for the meal so I said but I did not eat the meal and he said but I have to charge you and I said but you put cheese in the meal and I told you I am allergic he said but I told you it was mixed vegetables and I said cheese is not a mixed vegetable but he continued to say but I said it was mixed vegetables on this conversation went on for five minutes he did not get it that cheese was not a mixed vegetable anyway it wasn’t about the cheese been in my meal it was about the waiters Lack of compassion and sympathy and there was no apology which upset me the most
