Clueless. The Jhalfrezi tasted of vinegar, nowhere near hot enough just not a Jhalfrezi. They also tried ripping me off. Charging me for stuff I never ordered but put on my table, I had one bite and they put it on my bill. Waste of money.

An overall excellent Balti house. They produce consistent quality food for both eat-in and takeaway, from a comprehensive menu. Personal recommendations include the Biriani’s, mixed Korai and Chicken Tikka Akhni, to name a few. I can’t comment on the dessert menu, as I’m always full after the starters and mains! The Paradise is well worth a visit.

Food too greasy for us & tasteless. Wouldn’t recommend this place. This is the second Indian place we have tried since moving to Petersfield. We went to the spice lounge & was disappointed. Someone told told us they recently won awards for their food so this looked very promising but again was not up-to standard. The service was slow having only 5 other tables in. It took an hour for our main course to come out (no starters) & the chicken bhoona had half cm floating on top of the curry so did the dhall. The flavours was not there what so ever. Disappointing!

We arrived without booking a table, which we should have done really. The restaurant filled up pretty quick which is always a good sign. Four of us were eating tonight and everything was great, no complaints regarding the food. Our softdrinks were flat, we should have asked for them to be changed, but we were having such a great evening. Would I visit again. But call in advance so not to be disappointed.

Very dissatisfied, clearly short of staff but still opened every table, extremely noisy inside and the curry labeled with fresh mint reaked of vinegar, clearly the mint came from a jar from a well-known supermarket. They would not take this off the bill even though it wasn't eaten. So if you enjoy poor slow service and an underwhelming curry in a very noisy atmosphere this is the place to be

Chicken padina was supposed to be made with fresh mint but had what seemed like an entire jar of Colman's mint sauce as a replacement, yuck. Insult to injury we were still charged even though it was inedible! The staff were running around and it was clear that they needed more staff. I would recommend this aloo Gobi though but not the restaurant.

Really disappointed with our visit to the paradise last night. The food was fine no problems with that but the waiters were so miserable and often sounding rude. I'm sure they were not like this on our last visit. We even got asked to drink up and leave as they wanted to go home. When we did go there was no sign of of a cheery good bye and thank you. Not a work. Wished I hadn't of paid gratuity now. Please get some friendlier staff or at least some that seem interested in their job.

First time since going/having a takeaway since the 80's (though may have change name and hands since then) that I wasn't impressed. I had a very bland King Prawn Biriani - but what really irritated me was I probably got the maximum of 3 small king prawns cut up into miniscule (I mean tiny) pieces chucked in to a lot of unflavoursome rice. All for the takeaway price of £12.50. Somewhat a rip off. If you go for Tandoori Ratan as a starter (sharing with my wife) ignore lamb chops mentioned on the menu - it's one very little chop. Wife is going here for a meal in just over a week, be interesting on her dining in experience and if that's gone down hill too.

Four of us visited last evening to celebrate my birthday. We booked at short notice without any problem. The staff were friendly and attentive enough without being intrusive. The place is immaculate. It is fully air conditioned, which was great as it was about 31 degrees. The choice of food on the menu is excellent. we ordered many different dishes between us and they were all superb. They also have a good wine list. We were very pleasantly surprised when presented with the bill as it was a fair bit lower than expected. Very good value for money. Thoroughly recommended.

It was a Thursday eve, first time visit here and we were given a treat. The food was extremely flavoursome and well presented, the nan breads were so light and fresh. All of our food was 5 star. The place was not packed and they have plastic screens to seclude you from other diners where needed and our waiter wore a face shield and gloves at all times. It really was very professional whilst at the same time not to negatively impact on a great dining experience if you get my meaning. More people arrived as we were leaving and all looking very happy with their experience. Our best Indian dining experience in Petersfield by far and looking forward to returning again soon.

Revisited on 29 Aug 2020. A huge effort was made for covid protection including screens between tables, wrapped cutlery, covers over the dips, etc. I find Indian restaurant food can often be oily and very filling but the dishes we ordered were beautifully cooked. The four of us in the group ordered both vegetarian and meat dishes, all were great. Definitely the best Indian restaurant in Petersfield.

We visited the Paradise, with friends, for the first time lastSaturday night. We booked a table at 8pm and there was a pleasant atmosphere when we arrived. We were warmly welcomed & quickly offered drinks & menus. I was very pleasantly surprised by the menu- all the usual staples you’d expect plus some interesting alternatives such as pistachio korma. We ordered popadoms and a range of mains, sides dishes, naans & chapatis. All freshly cooked, no fluorescent colours, generous portions & delicious. Faultless service too. A really lovely evening, thank you. We will be back.

Apparently tell them you want their Monday / Tuesday night deal BEFORE you order or suffer an embarrassing argument when the bill comes.

We were a party of twelve celebrating a birthday. This is an excellent restaurant serving freshly cooked and delicious dishes. The helpings are generous, and the staff most helpful. We arrived as it opened, having booked in advance. As a large party the service was a little slow to allow simultaneous serving, but this was not a problem in our case. The menu is large as one would expect, but a sample of the various dishes ordered showed a good range of tastes and heat.

On way from Portsmouth to South East London, we decided to pull off the motorway at Petersfield to find somewhere to eat!I’m very fussy, have a nut allergy and don’t like ‘heat’. Even milds too hot for me! The food was delicious and they were very attentive to someone like me! I had chicken Malaya- basically the only curry I’ll eat - not great when you’re married to an indian lover!!My husband thought it was a bit overpriced, but very nice. If we were back in the area, we would definitely eat there again!

Disappointed. Came to this place after seeing the reviews following a day at the beach. Whilst the staff were friendly, the food was way below par. Good size portions, but lacked flavour. No spice, bland, flavourless food. Even salt and pepper would have elevated it a little. Poppadoms and dips were the highlight. Definitely not an authentic Indian.

It’s a few years since we’ve been to this restaurant and we had many good experiences in the past. Sadly, this visit was less than impressive. Our relatively early evening booking saw poppadoms and pickle tray delivered. One dipping pot was chipped in several places and really should be discarded in the bin. Tight servings of the pickle dishes for 6 people - perhaps review the portion sizes you serve as a plain poppadom is little more than a large crisp otherwise. Drinks arrived eventually. Main courses ordered and we sat back and chatted, chatted, chatted…waiting for the plates we used for our poppadoms to be collected from the table. A gentle hint of the customers stacking up these plates eventually caught the attention of the waiter and he came over to remove them from our table. Then we had time to chat, chat, chat, chat whilst waiting for our main course to be served. Thank goodness we didn’t order anything over complicated or starters. After an hour and a quarter we caught one of the waiters and politely asked whether our main course was due to arrive. As if by magic, we were informed we were next and the dishes arrived in a rather haphazard disorganised way, so our group got rice but no curry or their curry but no rice etc. Rice portion sizes were also very small. Several of the dishes served to our group contained chicken - it was tough. The chicken jalfrazi looked like no other chicken jalfrazi I’d ever seen served in a similar restaurant. Very little tomato found within the jalfrazi hence it appeared rather too dark brown ( I know recipes differ). It was disappointing to see that tables are no longer covered in table cloths as most appear to be, chipped crockery, long waits before being served, waiters running in the restaurant, waiters carrying 4 plates, 4 rice dishes, plates of naan bread whilst serving customers - no serving trolleys or trays used. There was lots of rushing around by staff and perhaps far too many customers in the restaurant for the staff to cope with. Yes, it was busy, but when customers are forced to wait exceptionally long for their meals to arrive, the quality of cooking and ingredients, small portion sizes of dishes you start to question whether it’s worth going there again? Sadly, our answer to that would be an overwhelmingly no. There are so many other good restaurants in the area - Whitehill and Alton where service, quality of food and portion sizes are so good why would you want to return? Which is such a shame because in previous years we’ve had good food and a good experience here. I just wonder what has happened to change this? Maybe more staff are needed or spread table booking times so your kitchen and waiting staff aren’t so overwhelmed.
