Papa's American Diner in Blackburn with Darwen

Omg what a curry starters were amazing every thing was spot on best curry in a long time no watery rice perfect from 31 astbury

First visited a few months ago and it was delicious and tried a take away this evening and it was just as good. Absolutely amazing food. Lovely staff too. If you're a fan of King Prawns, the King Prawn Bangla is a must!!!!!! Will definitely be back.

Was very disappointed third time ordered always been hot and delicious unfortunately tonight it was cold and bland

Had a few take aways from here that have been nice. Tonight however was not. All food was cold, garlic naan and 'meat' samosas were doughy and no sign of meat in the samosas. Bread was bland and burnt. Chicken tikka massala had 5 small pieces of chicken in it and, for 1st time, was too spicy for me....never been to eat in, but don't think we'll be getting a take way from here again. Has it changed hands/new chef?

My partner and I visited Mughal Dine midweek and were very impressed. The service was excellent, and the staff were very friendly. The food was fantastic—we had both a starter and a main, and everything was cooked to perfection, with a clear emphasis on freshness. We opted for the midweek special, which included a starter, main, and a choice of naan or rice for £12.95. It was excellent value, and we had no complaints. We’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend a visit!

Very good food. Nice custom very polite. Wow that food was really nice

Family run business. Very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. Best I have ever had.

Went on Saturday night following a recommendation. Never been before but will be going again. Butter chicken and chicken rogan josh was fantastic. Sukhi is an excellent host and all the staff very welcoming.

Food was nice, but overcharged on the bill. 3 people and 2 rounds of the same drinks, so not a difficult thing to get right, but the main thing was we got a set menu where it said you could choose any main course except Chops, King Prawns or Special, so I avoided those deliberately. There was a section on the menu called 'Special Dishes', so I ordered a dish from a different section and not chops or king prawns. Got £3 surcharge on the bill and got told "oh but we consider this a special too" even though there was no indication of that. Manager argued with me and tried to belittle me by saying "no one else has ever mentioned it". Also, standard of English of one of the staff was poor. I asked for a dessert menu and he said ok. A few minutes passed and we got brought the hot towels like you usually get at the end, and I asked him about the dessert menu again, and got an incomprehensible reply, and then "we don't do desserts" so I just said, ok the bill please.

Had a few takeaways from here and it’s absolutely bangin the staff lamb curry with garlic naan is the best of the best. Well done guys✌️❤️

Had an amazing takeaway delivered. Quick time and everything was lovely. Chicken Rogan josh, poppadoms and you get plenty of onions and chutney. Best curry in a long while

Wow just wow, I have been ordering takeaways for weeks trying out different places. I decided to try this place and wow just wow the food was very tasty and the best I have had for weeks.

Service without a smile. Purchased a takeaway at the cost of £32.50. Keema curry, Tikka masala curry, pilau rice, 6 chapatti, Samosa starter and pakora starter. The tikka masala had ONLY 5 PIECES of small chicken in it. ONLY 3 mini supermarket samosas in the portion. ONLY 5 pakora. How do they work out there portion sizes???? NO complimentary poppadoms, The first and LAST visit.

Ordered a takeaway(delivered)for the first time from Mughal Dine will definitely order again. Staff lamb curry, samosas, mushroom rice and garlic naan, complementary side salad and sauce. The whole meal was very tasty, I couldn't fault it, and plenty left for another meal tomorrow.

Best deal around my favourite Indian in Darwen I get the set meal for one around 16quid then get a bag of chips with it and it lasts me for My tea and breakfast

It would have been nice to be able to take a few beers in with us, but I suppose you can't have everything.

Fantastic food and service. Highly recommended 👍🏻

Great service,food always delicious

Great food, reasonably priced & great service, will definitely become a regular

Very nice curry and quick service

Very quick service , cracking food really good especially the chicken tikka masala highly would recommend if in Blackburn.

Bland tasteless. I've had better Curry from Wetherspoons. The main was £9.50. Chefs special. Was chicken in a jar of tesco curry sauce. It's not the worst I've had, but it's pretty disappointing. Would not recommend

Wow 🤩 What an amazing curry, 100% the best curry in Darwen. Big shout out to the owners. This place is next level 👌🏾🔥🔥 on a personal note i would like to thank the owners for their recommendation on what to get. Definitely will be visiting again

Very good food, thanks to all. No alcohol But soft drinks available

Never had such a flavoursome curry, the onion bhajis were sublime (no pun intended)

The food was gorgeous and the staff were really friendly, will come back again

Went for the midweek special offer with 3 friends, which is great value for money I must add! I had lamb rogan josh, and there was hardly any lamb in it. Although it tasted fantastic, I didn't complain as £13 for a starter, main and sundries it's a bargain. The best garlic nan I've had for a while.

I've eaten in and had numerous takeaways and I've got to say they make the best curries ever the staff are so lovely and helpful I definitely recommend you all to go you won't be disappointed

Great portions great price lovely restaurant great to see Suki back doing what he does well communicating top marks guys you've done well you'll definitely be seeing me again 👍👍👍👍👍

I will start by saying my family eat out regular and it really does pain me to give a bad review , out of the many reviews we have given very few are not positive , we chose this location as it scored highly on Google reviews , we generally trust the Google review scoring and get a good meal from a highly rated place. Not this time ! Went here with a party of 8 . The starters was excellent but the currys ,ordered a samber was brought dansak didn't taste like either no lemon or pineapple just garlic , our daughter was quite upset and left to my surprise they still billed me for it even though the dish was left uneaten . Rogan josh again was very garlic like with little flavour tasted nothing like a rogan probably the wrong dish and was left uneaten .the ceylon however was quite good the milkshakes was also good . The bill was reasonable but taking money for the wrong dishes is not acceptable. Hope in future the owner will learn the value of customer satisfaction.

Absolutely Incredible. Big soft chapattis, Vindaloo/Madras/Chicken Tikka/Rogan Josh all amazing. I’ve had a lot of curries in 20 years and this is king. Please don’t change chefs/recipe 😁

What a beautiful place, the food is also delicious. The staff know exactly what they are doing and I can tell the owner has experience in running businesses from before. Keep it up guys this place is a gem. I forgot to take pics of the food because I was really hungry. But next time I’m in there I will certainly take some to show people what is in offer here

Great food at a fairly reasonable price. If I could nitpick anything it could do with a little more meat in the curries but besides that it was outstanding

Get a curry delivered nearly every Saturday. Can't fault it . The taste is awesome. Loads of flavour and don't skimp on portions.

Simply the best! My go to for Takeaway and now I have finally visited the restaurant. Fab service, warm atmosphere. Delicious and fresh food!

Incredible food, incredible service. See you every week!

Bland tasting food. Tiny amount of meat in my curry.

The food was delicious, the service was perfect . It was just cold in there there was electric heaters going but it was still cold ,hopefully night time they will have central heating 😀

Great food,fresh salad dressings...not the usual in indian resturants.No beef on menu so proper Indian.

Best takeaway I've had....ever! Food was amazingly good. Price of takeaway did not reflect quality. A must have!

Delicious food, great location, and good service.

Food was great. It was a bit cold in the restaurant.

I booked a table for myself and a friend on an unusually quiet Friday night. As there were just the 2 of us, we had some poppadoms for starters and a portion of onion bahji. The bahji's were cooked to perfection. Lovely and soft on the inside and crisp on the outside, complimented with some of the remaining sauces from the selection that we had with the poppadoms. For the main, we ordered a chicken tikka masala but asked for it to be spiced up. It was no problem to add some heat, and it was spiced perfectly, giving just the right amount of heat and flavour. Needless to say, we polished off the lot...! The only thing this restaurant doesn't have yet is an alcohol licence, but it was no problem. My friend and I have no problems not drinking with our meals, so it didn't really bother us. Thanks for a great meal, and prices were also good. See you again!!

Curries from here never disappoint! Loved everything I’ve had so far; especially the chicken tikka masala! Rice is very good too! New favourite Indian in Darwen :)

Have enjoyed dining in. Delicious food, attentive staff, lovely decor and very good value.

Beautiful food Chicken done just as I like it melts In mouth early bird special well worth it and the rest was reasonably priced

Excellent food, can't wait for next time!

Good food, great menu selection, good sized portions at a reasonable price. The drinks menu doesn't include alcohol which makes the dining experience less distracting.

After reading reviews I thought I would order a takeaway so glad I did food was delicious piping hot on arrival and great value for money will definitely be ordering from here in future

In a town that's stacked with Indian restaurants ,I consider this to be the best ♡

The best curry I've ever had, honestly.

Absolutely amazing food! Now my new favourite Indian restaurant. We had the mixed platter for starters with poppadoms (of course, it's the law) then we had Chicken Tikka Masala with Mushroom Rice and chips, I also had a Chapatti. My friends had the garlic naan and said it was really nice. It was so so good. The staff were lovely and had a laugh with us. We can't wait to return! I notice people whining about them not serving alcohol... if you can't go out for a beautiful meal without it, you're doing it wrong.

Lovely Indian restaurant. The food was amazing, staff are so friendly. Great service. We ordered the tawa for 4 people, and you get a lot too. Definitely recommend 👌

5 stars all day long. Food was amazing, staff were super friendly, really generous portion sizes (brought my leftovers home, and even better is I can freeze it for a tea later in the week). We will definitely be back. Thank you for a lovely meal

Highly recommend Food was superb alongside great service Extremely helpful and accommodating for vegan options

Thought we'd give em a go but requested as mild as possible with no chillies in my garlic chicken and it was so hot it was inedible. Onion Bahji and Pakora were nice as was the garlic bread but as I couldn't eat my main course I can't give any more than 3 stars. I'll be back at my regular Darwen takeaway/restaurant, where they actually act on the requests given, from now on.

First time visiting tonight and we had an amazing meal here. Service is fantastic with the friendliest staff. Always lovely to catch up with Sukhi and Naj is such a lovely man. Thanks so much for a great meal.

Food was absolutely amazing. And a fantastic price too.

Amazing food service was excellent highly recommended

Had a fantastic meal at this lovely,new restaurant.Very friendly staff,nothing was too much trouble.We will definitely be back very soon.Thankyou.

Had a lovely meal here with my friend. The food was amazing and the service was outstanding. Everywhere was immaculately clean and well presented. I would highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

Ordered takeaway for here and oh my god, that was one of THE best curries I have ever eaten in my entire life, and I’ve been to India 4 times. We had the chicken tikka garlic chilli and a chicken tikka masala and they were both absolutely delicious, packed with flavour. The tandoori chicken was succulent and juicy & the naan, chapatti and rice were spot on. Delivery driver was super friendly and had a chat about my car with me. 10/10 food and 10/10 customer service, would definitely recommend to anyone. Also delivery was 5-10 minutes earlier than expected which was good we were very hungry!

My girlfriend and I had an amazing time earlier this evening. The food was incredible and the service was really good. Max and Naj were very friendly and ensured we had a perfect evening.

First time getting a takeaway tonight from here and certainly won't be the last! The food was absolutely delicious, we could not fault it at all. Very friendly and lovely staff! Highly recommend and can't wait to stop by the restaurant!

Gave these a try tonight (takeaway), very pleased with the food (chicken tikka masala was fantastic) very well priced and plenty of choice on the takeaway menu. We will be back :)

Very pleasant surroundings and friendly staff,,, we had the early bird meal, chicken pakora followed by South Indian garlic chilli chicken tikka Balti , with a garlic naan,,, £12.95, with extra chips each,, and a glass of coke,, was worth every penny and was delicious,,, thank you

Went for a family meal, amazing food and service! Very handsome and attentive waiters, the food was very well priced and delicious. Definitely will be back.

Enjoyable experience at Mughal dine with a cosy atmosphere and amazing service

First time trying here. Really enjoyed it. Staff was really nice couldn't do enough for us. Curry was lovely will definitely be returning. Thanks for lovely evening

What a breath of fresh air this restaurant is lots of competition in this area but the food the setting the service this restaurant will definitely compete with others the food was amazing and nothing was to much for the staff it will definitely be on my revisit and thank you 🙏 everyone in the Mughal Dine good luck in the future from Neil & Sylvia “ Have say also ok the early bird menu not up and running yet but the offer of 50% off the list menu is a great 👍 £24 starter of popadoms and dips two mains drinks a bargain tonight had a Tawa it was beautiful this place is on the up as far as the food and service you’ve just got to give it a go 👍👍

Best curry I have had in months! I had really gone off the usual spots we go to so thought we would give these guys a go and wasn't disappointed! Will be trying them again soon 👌

Would definitely recommend to family and friends. The food was exceptional along with the waiting staff and service. I felt very welcomed as soon as I walked in.

The food is amazing. The staff were very attentive and hospitable. Would definitely recommend, and will return.

Got a takeaway delivered this evening. Delivered in 30 minutes from order , quicker than they said. I had Chicken tikka madras , couple garlic chapatti, other half had Korma and rice. Was very nice will be back 🔥👍

2nd takeaway and it gets better everytime! Absolutely love this place it’s our new takeaway 🤩 food is delicious and piping hot when delivered.

Absolutely brilliant the food is amazing. I'll definitely be returning. Thank you

Advertising 50% off Monday to Friday this week with a massive sign outside but charged full price. Prawn puri quite sickly and no salad or mint sauce some shell on a couple of prawns. Pathia special mix taste ok lamb extremely chewy and no king prawns for £2.00 extra over chicken and lamb. Keema naan really tasty

Great food and loads of it good value for the amount of food

Wonderfull food will definitely order again

Received a texted message saying it on was on its way at 6:40 didn't arrive until 19.39 and it was freezing we have had to warm it up.

1st time I've tried this place because I wanted buffalo wings and I am not disappointed. Easily the best buffalo wings I've ever eaten

First time ordering from here and I’m impressed! The food arrived early and was hot. I got the buffalo wings - which were amazing, really tasty and spicy. The ribs were cooked perfectly and the Mac n cheese was the best I’ve had. Will definitely be coming back here again!

Great food, good portion sizes will definitely be ordering again

Shocking, stone cold and then told we would have to wait up to another hour for replacement food. The manager is the chef, I mean get more staff! I waited 15minutes and had no call back as promised and his excuse was, I've been busy. Just appalling service and when I said we wouldn't be happy to wait uo to an hour after already waiting for 1 hiir for the cold food, he didn't even seem arsed that he was losing an order. Never going here again and we were looking forward to trying them out. Awful, awful service.

Burnt chicken burger, cold fries , ribs dry instead of saucy. Real shame as enjoyed last time. But there’s too much competition in darwen for a bad order I’m afraid!!!!

The positives; best chicken wings I've ever had! Delicious sauces. Also, excellent customer service. Really helpful and friendly. The not-great; food was late and really cold despite trays being hot. I'm 100% sure that the food is amazing when it's hot as, aside from the mac n cheese, it was tasty anyway. Will try again but would rather eat in.

Would be really good if arrived a little warmer

Incredible food, hot and filling, perfect on a miserable day! We will definitely be ordering here again in future! Thank you!!

45mins late, chicken wings are cold, ice cream has melted.

Ordered a buttermilk chicken burger it was burnt and my chips were cold. I rang the takeaway and the customer service was excellent, they sent me out a beef burger which was very peppery and more chips.

Food looked nice however there wasn’t any salt… the chicken thighs tasted like burnt coal

Yummy. 1st time ordering. Not disappointed. Will be using again.

Brilliant food, well happy with it. Massive portions too. Defo coming back over the next couple of weeks

Very cold, chips where like cold micro chips ,burnt ends where poor and had to cook further at home and the brisket beans was more fat and heinz beans! They also didn’t send my drink. Would not recommend to anyone unless you like cold cardboard

Great , tasty food ordered too much as I didn’t realise the portions would be that big. Everything was spot on will definately be ordering again . Thank you for a great meal

Ordered Burnt Ends, Chilli Fries and the Choc and Peanut Butter Pie! Delicious!

Food took a while to arrive but it was really good when it did. The only criticism is it could have been hotter but I suppose at that time on a Friday night they’re going to be pretty busy. Would definitely order again but probably earlier or on a quieter night to get hot food.

Food was great! Ended up with a spare box of fries (think they came with either a burger or wings - think this could be made clearer when ordering ☺️) chocolate cake is sooooo good and even the vanilla ice cream was yummy! Will definitely be ordering again!

Really good food. Great portions and tasty!!!

The food was slightly late but I was called to inform me of this (excellent customer service). The food was awesome and plentiful and really well packaged (The burger box is a stroke of genius). Ten thumbs up!
