Penn Tandoori in Wolverhampton

Got wrong order restaurant not bothered told to sort it with Uber 30 pounds out of pocket never again rubbish service

Excellent, I will look forward to going here again

I have been going here for about 20 years and my meal this month was the best one I have ever had there! It was nice and fresh and spicy. The onion bah jee starter was perfectly cooked as was the main. Compliments to the chef!

First time here and can see why does so well, it is decorated with modern feel and all staff very friendly. Service was done efficiently without intruding and food was tasty and good portion si ZZ es for reasonable price.

As usual absolutely delicious. The tarka dhal was best we have ever had. Chicken bhuna was so tasty the whole meal was amazing. 10 stars x

Beautiful food and service. Speedy turnaround and great quality. Reliable and definitely a local favourite. Tip — car park can be busy and challenging to manoeuvre — you can park 2 minutes away in a side street with sign to library

One of the best indian restaurants in the UK

Been going to Penn tandoori for 45 yrs after being taken over by new owners our food tonight was the best we had from the new owners

Been using penn tandoori for over 20 years, best curry house I’ve ever been to.

one of the best Indian takeaway I've ever had would highly recommend

Had an amazing time. The food was delicious. There were great chooses from veg and meat dishes. There was 8 of us at the meal and we paid approximately £25 per person and that included drinks. The customer service was outstanding.

This was an amazing and beautiful experience. From booking a table online easily, to the amazing service, especially Rohan one of the waiters, even down to the small details of the candle in the toilet which my partner was astounded by. The food was beyond excellent and I can't wait to come back again.

This place was nice and the service was great. The food was absolutely amazing.

Beautiful food and excellent service. Parking good behind restaurant

Always a pleasure and food is cooked from the heart always perfectly presented,attentive staff and loved the Mocktails,treat yourself it's worth it 👌

Food was delicious with tasty vegetarian options available and good portion sizes. The papadams were fantastic with great accompaniments. Service was flawless and atmosphere really lovely. Will be coming again and would highly recommend.

Nice food. Light, airy design gives it a comfortable feel.

Really good curry house. Highly recommended.

Lovelly food very clean staff excellent good portions at a good price will defo go again8

Lovely guys especially Raj he made me a nice madras can't fault it nice peaceful music in the background makes you think your in Pattaya. I came back yesterday oh my Raj did it again made me a pathia I will remember for ever he even cut my chicken in to small pieces as I can't swallow big meats.

Lovely restaurant with really good food!!

Absolutely beautiful as always. Chicken very tender and korma sauce creamy and sweet. Even my autistic son who is extremely picky loves your keema naan bread. Always fast delivery too and food piping hot. Thank you!

First time back here in a long time. Didn’t enjoy the food on previous visit. However, was lovely tonight . Spicy and lots of flavours. Dropped a point though cos the side of Bombay potatoes was tiny and definitely not worth the price.

Food was good all round. Only negatives were it took nearly an hour although it was Friday evening and it could have been warmer. Not saying it was cold but not quite warm enough. But can’t be faulted for flavour, food was really good

Great food and friendly delivery driver

The staff are attentive, friendly and polite. I've been here twice now and both occasions the food was excellent

Food Mazing but a little later than usual but well worth the wait love this restaurant 🤩

great food as always would prefer old foil trays instead of plastic

Lovely food but having spent £60 would be nice to have had complimentary popadums

The food at penn tandoori was fab & portion size was spot on also could have a laugh with the staff 👌

Great food, fast service and friendly delivery driver

Normally fantastic and worth premium to others. Tonight not good for the cost. No salad and raitha. Chips and Onion Bhaji were cold and hard.

Since I left Great Barr and the amazing Basmati, I’ve been searching high and low for a place local to me that can match the quality, now I’ve found it! Best curry house by far that stands up to the Basmati, it was warm, had huge amounts of flavour and overall excellent. Couldn’t fault anything! Def my new go to curry house!!

Did a hump night on Wednesday after 3 months and planned to go across the road to the Mount for a few drinks and end the night at Penn Tandoori. We arrived at Penn Tandoori around 21:50 and was advised that they close at 22:30. Bare in mind that I have never been here before so, we were escorted to to table (they should have told us that they are not taking further diners as they are closing) however, the waiter seated us and took our order for drinks which was fine but he stood there waiting and rushed us to place our food order. Despite the annoying behaviour, we placed our order without reading the full menu. The waiter then advised is that it will be about 20 minutes for the the food to arrive so we carried on chatting. The food arrived within the 20 minute window however their recommended Bangladeshi chicken dish was awful and full of ghee (fat) along with the my naan bread plastered in ghee instead of butter (mate I asked you for a butter naan). The saag paneer was not very tasty. We asked for saag paneer not palak paneer. We were presented with a bill totally up to £95 within 45 minutes of our arrival time. This waiter made a quick raise by not mentioning that we have to be out by 22:30. I am not being funny no wonder these restaurants are going bust because of the level of service offered by these imbeciles who start work at 4pm or so and want to be home by 11pm. Back in the days whenever I visited restaurants throughout Wolves we were welcomed with open arms and treated like royalty. The owners of Penn Tandoori need to read this and rectify the situation. The way these freshies are going there will be no customers. I will never be going there again. It a joke. The food and service were both below standard. If you can’t offer your standards then you should refuse entry. Bakwaas!!

Exceptional food. Don’t normally leave reviews for anything. Absolutely stunning

Well I have used penn tandoori for well over 50yrs I praised this restaurant to everyone as the food and the sevice was fantastic....Well since the new owners have taken over it was not upto penns usual standards... booked for a booth when got there the was no booth available so sat down at a table ordered 2 drinks yepee it was I face that I knew I was then told we could have a booth as the was one had come available I said you can stick the booth where the sun don't shine....ordered the food which was fine I did ask for mine to be a mild pathia but it was far to hot for me yes I was asked if I wanted another one but declined.....another thing I saw was dirty glassed all on the bar I was just put off going back....well my suggestion is get ALI DILWHAR JAY JAYS DAD BACK AND ALL THE OLD STAFF BACK AND I WILL GO BACK BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE WONT BE RETURNING.......

Arrived on a quiet Thursday evening on the way home after visiting with family which was slightly surprising as this place was usually busy. Very poor service and management. New owner was incredibly rude and trying to avoid eye contact with our table. Other staff were pleasant though. Every wine we chose from the menu they didn’t have! Owner comes over with a completely different bottle of wine and tries to mask it as the one we orderred, saying “just have it, it’s the same one!”. Waited around 15 minutes after we’ve finished for someone to clear up our table. Not to mention the ridiculous beverage prices. Food was not horrible, but not the best we’ve had around the area. Dull atmosphere. Didn’t even ask us how our food was as the previous custodians used to. Tried to La Bise my mother in law on the way out which she didn’t really feel comfortable with… Not what it once was that’s for sure. Value for money? Definitely not.

We were so disappointed with the experience. The sad thing this place was our favourite until the new ownership took over. The service is nonexistent, waiters do not even try to communicate and when we try you automatically notice the language barrier. The Food now lacks in flavour with every dish tasting the same. You notice the lack of commitment from the owners soon as you receive menus that are falling apart. You cannot charge £29.95 for a bottle of wine you can buy for £6 if it’s not even accompanied with a smile. UNIMPRESSED

Great place to try out food service everything about the place was great.

Absolutely ridiculous. We visited table of four on Saturday 27th April. We arrived 7pm and we straight away noticed the chaotic scenes. It took 40min from the moment we sat down for our food order to taken. As the clock was ticking we heard and noticed other patrons complaining about waiting over hour for takeaways. We threatened to walk out twice as it was taking nearly 2hours for our food. When food eventually arrived cold in temperature and lack of flavours. Malabar or Indigo 100% better.

good food, fast service and friendly delivery driver

The staff were not at all welcoming, the wait between courses was a bit much a hour between starter and main. The food itself was good, seems like the restaurant was more interested in takeaway orders than the in-house customers. You receive a much better service at The Dosa Hut less than a mile away where the food service is far more superior.

Apr. '23. Previous attempts to book here have been unsuccessful, due to being too busy, so, first visit. We managed to take the last parking space at the rear. This place is still popular, and the available parking is insufficient. The hygiene ratings are the highest, and we found it very clean as soon as we walked through the door. we were shown to our table immediately. Plenty of staff. We were surprised to learn the previous owners had left over a year ago, but this didn't detract from the experience. On to the food! Popadoms, Chicken Pakora, and Garlic Mushrooms to start, followed by Lamb Tikka, Chicken Tikka, with sides of Vegetable Curry and Chips, (which were more like French Fries, but the wife preferred them anyway). All washed down with Cobra Lager. Everything was perfectly delicious. Around £72 altogether. Not the cheapest, but recommended if you want to treat that "Someone Special". I knocked the atmosphere down by one star as I found it too noisy on arrival, but it got quieter later.

1st time ordering and was happy with the time taken to cook and deliver

Birthday party for a friend....the team were great, polite, on the ball and quick as they were able to be.

ordered tandoori mix special Towla rice mentioned in the description but not included in the meal and at £15 was not good value for money, plus I'm charged a £2 service charge we received no service it was a takeaway meal. Not a good experience

Had a booking here food was nice but service very sloppy and this restaurant was recommended to us, food at first was cold, they charged one of us way over more than it should be good job they checked, parking very tight wouldn't eat here again

Birthday event, well staffed and service was excellent based on the party size and the miriad of different orders

Excellent, as always from the Penn Tandoori

We had a fantastic meal at Penn Tandoori. I had the Bangladeshi Lamb which was exquisite and my wife had the Murghi Masala. Both meals were 10/10 and the staff were brilliant. Highly recommend!!

Exceptional food and service here. The quality of ingredients used doesn’t go unnoticed. Parking at the rear is a little bit tight, but for the location it’s pretty adequate. The interior is modern, clean and spacious. A number of booths and bigger tables are available, so great for gatherings. Or you can sit at the rear if you’re looking for something a little more private. Highly recommend.

Onion salad missing, naan missing

Spent 80 and not even a popadom in sight haha

As usual the food was fantastic, however, I can't say the same for the service. We had booked a table but in arrival we were left standing by the entrance. We were show to our table but in this occasion nobody took our coats. We ordered our drinks and meals which was lovely. Once our plates were removed we weren't offered dessert or coffee which left me feeling a little bit like they wanted us to leave... so we did!

Had a takeaway tonight. Enjoyed the food very much, as always. Love the chicken chat and chicken saag. Been coming here for years. Always used to be known for a warm welcome, less so now, at least for takeaway. The service was abrupt and definitely not warm, glad the food was though.

very happy with the quality of food and speed of delivery.. considering the price paid the portion size could be a little more bigger though.

Chips were soggy and cold, the curry was warm had to put them in the microwave, the veg curry had leaked all in the bag, and very expensive for what you get!!!

Absolutely amazing valentines meal. Great service, great food, great atmosphere .... homemade pudding was out of this world, the guys misses needs a medal for this recipe, totally on another level. Best meal we've had for ages. Top marks

Each dish was cooked to perfection and full of flavour

Very good courier and lovely food

Always an excellent experience, so fortunate to have this place on our doorstep.

we had a great night. The food and the Service was very good. the place was very busy on Saturday night. we will definitely come back.

Staff are welcoming and friendly, food is delicious and the service is great

Love this restaurant best Indian food I've ever had

Absolutely disgusting behaviour at Penn Tandoori. Threw someone out because they have a guide dog. Really hope this place gets shut down. And instead of reaching out to the woman to apologise instead they just block comments on Facebook because or the bad press they have gotten. Next time think for you discriminate against the visual impaired.

Ordered from here the food was highly priced for the quantities we got. In regards to taste was very salty. Wouldn't recommend me or order from there again

Appalling treatment that despite booking a table and advising our colleague had a guide dog being shown the table then asked them to leave because of the guide dog. Not wanting to allow a guide dog in is illegal. You have decided that your not allowing people with disabilities into your restaurant Cutting out a huge proportion of your community. We’ve all been blocked after commenting on social media. Hope the celebrities you are keen to welcome don’t have any disabilities or they’ll be refused service too. This was not a pet. This was a fully trained Guide Dog and you have been reported. Utterly disgraceful - Avoid at all costs!

Refused a guide dog entry even after being warned there would be one present, illegal and disgraceful behaviour. Will not be attending again and will be advising everyone I know the same.

Booked for a work leaving meal but got asked to leave and refused service as one of the party had a guide dog as they are blind. Even after explaining about guide dog shocking service, the way the manager spoke to the party was horrendous, would not recommend and will not be eating here again.

Absolutely disgusting behaviour last night at Penn Tandoori. Arrived to our pre-booked table having (don’t legally have too) advised we will have Sallie, Aleksandra’s guide dog. Shown to our table, the manager comes over and asks us to leave because of Sallie! Having then advised being asked to leave is illegal we asked to speak to the manager, the gentleman told us he is the manager! He then moved on to say Sallie can’t be in the carpet and we needed to move. Wtaf! Following a heated conversation including the fact he will be reported we walked out. The manager then had the nerve when walking back to the car to ask if he could have 1 more chance! REALLY! You HAVE been reported and you should be ashamed. My heart broke for you Aleksandra and am disgusted that this happened. Guide Dogs UK

ASKING ASSISTANCE DOG TO LEAVE AND EMBARRASSING CUSTOMER WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN HERE AGAIN

Denied a guide dog. Illegal and morally wrong. I would advise everyone to avoid this restaurant purely based on the type of people who run it. VILE!

On a business trip from Glasgow, this place was a recommend. Certainly did not disappoint! Food was amazing and service was a delight.

Loved my curry. Had a take away tonight as I enjoyed the curry I had in the restaurant last week.

Couldn’t fault it, always delicious!

Second time that I have been here since new owners. I have to say that it was better than the first time I went and tasted more like the old food. Keep it up guys

Lamb Madras absolutely lovely… just the right level of heat!

Excellent food. Delivered on time. Lovely driver.

Although ownership of very many years has changed, the food has not. We've eaten at the Penn Tandoori since it opened, decades ago and were worried about the change of ownership. Food is just as good and new staff are very freindly.

Excellent service and tasty food. Delighted that the chef could make a madras without onions to take into account my intolerance. Fabulous service, great food and a lovely, helpful and relaxed atmosphere. Served excellent food for a whole range of customers including scampi for restricted eaters. Thank you and well done to all the team. My best experience in an Indian restaurant for many years.

Extremely expensive for what we had. We had curry which didn't come with rice or naan bread. They need to know thier prices down by atleast 8-10 per head.

Amazing staff amazing food and a great atmosphere

Tasty food as always from Penn Tandoori

It tasted good but I had to reheat all the food, after spending do much I expected not to have to do that. A big disappointment. I won't bother again

Food was amazing and delivery was really quick would definitely recommend

The best curry we have had in ages

Great food and service! Have been before and will visit again.

Lamb Jalfrezi was one of the best I've had, thanks.

Very disappointed waited 90 mins food was not warm had to reheat won't be ordering anytime soon never had this problem with orders before from this restaurant so one very dissatisfied customer.

No warm welcome like theres used to be. The food was great however not much meat. Felt rushed off the table. Prices have gone up but standard of food and service not as good. Hope it picks up.

Excellent Indian cuisine. Went here with my family and i can honestly say the food was superb. I had the King Prawn Madras which i can highly recommend !

We had different curries but both said that they didn’t have much taste. We’ve had them before and they were delicious so not sure why so different this time.

Visited here whilst staying in an hotel close by, the food was absolutely delicious both me and hubby were very satisfied the service was exceptional but it was early on a Monday evening so can’t really comment what Friday or Saturday maybe like. Will definitely visit again if in the area
