Pink Garlic in Taunton Deane

Our favourite Indian restaurant. It's a 68 mile round trip for us but well worth it. The choice of food and quality of food is excellent, the staff are friendly and make the evening a very pleasant experience. We've been coming here for nearly 10 years and never been disappointed. We can honestly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Absolutely lovely food. The best Indian I have tasted.Very welcoming and food was excellent Staff were very attentive. Couldn't fault this establishment at all. Deserves a 5 star rating..

Had a meal on a Monday in March. What a surprise, the meal was absolutely the best Indian 👌 that we have had for years. The restaurant was quite, but that's only to be expected at the time of the year. The deco is pleasing and the staff were very accommodating and friendly. We highly recommend the Pink Garlic and we will be back. Thank you 😊

Lovely food. Lovely staff. Enjoyed the meals and would recommend for someone visiting or regulars.

Always great food and fantastic service.

Very welcoming, good service and great food. Have tried many different dishes and not been disappointed yet.

I had to edit it and give it 1 star from 5, as the food was so bad!!! My wife brought some of it home as take away and she became sick overnight. And then the next day the food started to smell. We used to go there as it's run by some nice Bangladeshi people but not anymore.

Thank you to the owner for great communication & understanding. Thanks tom

The food is lovely and good Service xxxxxx

Amazing food, amazing staff. Highly recommend

Pink Garlic is the best curry that I have had in Taunton. It is authentic and tastes great. If your used to ordering from fast food curries you probably won't appreciate how good Pink Garlic is. I love their butter chicken and chicken madras. Oh and the mushroom rice. If you want a real curry go to pink Garlic it won't disappoint.

We had group of work colleagues Food was amazing and service was outstanding. We enjoyed the evening.

Worst experience ever, when we entered in pink garlic and we all sat together then waitress came and gave us menu after 1 minute he came again, he asked are you ready to order we said no, after 5 minutes he came again i said can you wait please do you have some patience or not after that owner came he said are you ready now they are headache, after they ignored us when we were ready to order they didn't listened us. After food we said can we have bill please, then we checked the prices, prices were totally different from menu to main bill we said to the owner that what's that the prices are not matching with menu prices he said this menu is 15 years old we said then it's not our fault you have to update it, even he also said you guys are 4 people so you have to order 4 main dishes but you guys didn't. It's our choice to order food it's not their choice. Bad experience ever, bad service, food not good. Everything is totally ridiculous. Do not visit in here, it's money wastage.

I’m not one to normally leave a review. But on this occasion I feel compelled. Last night I had a takeaway from this restaurant and I can safely say it was the worst curry I have ever eaten in my whole 38 years on this planet. It looked horrific and tasted like someone had dropped a bottle of salt in it. I don’t think I will be returning.

Great customer service and great food 🙂

What a great find, here for my Nieces wedding and we decided to go for curry thr night before. Great choice, Sami our waiter was attentive and friendly food was amazing. Highly recommended

Greasy food and the takeaway customers had kids running around. Made it noisy

Had a take out delivery last week. Absolutely gorgeous. Taste was amazing. Above our expectations. Making my mouth water writing this review. Really recommend.

Got our first takeaway from The Pink Garlic and we were just blown away! The staff in the restaurant were lovely and helpful and we didn't have to wait long until our food was ready! The food was gorgeous and we had so much we couldn't eat it all! We will certainly be going back!

Had delivery which was late ( Uber not them ) but rang to ask he said ask Uber and put phone down . Then when food arrives was missing Madras, wrong type rice so rang and had items delivered quickly but no extras or a sorry. Never going to eat take away from here again.

We pre ordered the food at 8am for pick up at 8pm as we were excited for a good Indian! Pink Garlic, didn’t disappoint. The food was fresh, hot, full of flavour and incredible!! The chicken pakora, was outstanding and the service was spot on. Service 10/10 Food 10/10

Food was amazing and full of flavours!! As always excellent!! The chicken Pakora was incredible

Disappointing. Food was nice but we were placed at the end of the restaurant and ignored. Had to go and ask to place our order. They were more interested in a large group at the top of the restaurant. No atmosphere, staff couldn't crack a smile. Prices misleading as over charged by 15 percent at the bill.

Ate in the restaurant Saturday night, service and food were fantastic. Been using this restaurant for 12 yrs now, wouldn't dream of going anywhere else in Taunton

One of the best places to eat in Tauntton, takeaway and delivery service is just as good too. Has been for years and years. Keep it up team!

Second year in a row. Asked for a large booking with individually charged tables. Again one large bill at the end with over £80 unaccounted for. Food nice enough, but bill and over charging left a sour taste!!

That was second Indian restaurant we visit in Taunton and it was definitely top class. Food was perfect (especially position 43 in menu - slow fried lamb) and the service was excellent and very friendly (thank you Abdul for excellent service and nice talk). Food and service make you want to come back. 10/10 defo recommended.

Over charged the entire table, said it was because of an old menu but still charged the higher price despite it being law that you cannot charge more then the advertised price. Bought wrong food to the table numerous times and lied about what is was. Staff were not friendly or attentive at all, seems like they couldn't be bothered or cared in the slightest. Restaurant was uncomfortably hot and when asked to put air con on they just opened the door for only 5 minutes which did nothing. Do not recommend this restaurant in the slightest and will encourage other people to avoid.

I'm not sure if this company has changed hands but we have been coming here for 10 years and tonight's eat in experience was awful, my family ordered 10 meals, 4 were wrong, we sat down at 18:30pm and our meals difd not come to the table until 20:40pm the waiters were extremely slow, impatient and shouting over people, and have no clue what to do with the wrong meals, they refunded one them because it was uneaten, no music, no air con, just pure chaos, could not wait to leave and we will be taking our business elsewhere from now on....oh and apparently 'butter chicken is just korma with butter added' lol.

Another great meal in the PGarlic super food and excellent service. Favourite place to eat in uk.

Great restaurant, to me the best Indian restaurant in Taunton

Love it here !!! Personally I think it’s the best Indian restaurant in Taunton. Family meal and the staff were super friendly and attentive. Thank you for a lovely evening

The food had a processed taste to it and not what I expected for a Indian restaurant.

Good food, sometimes the service let's them down.

I use these guys for take-out. They do a mean Chicken Tikka Masala. Best I've had. Naan breads are massive and tasty. Coconut rice to boot. Worth the money. Never been in but generally it's quiet. Will use every time.

The food was amazing couldn’t fault any of it. Reason for the low star score is the attitude of the waiter, it’s not the first time either, tried to give him the benefit of the doubt and go again but, same as the previous time, just so rude, tutting when I pointed out he’s wrote our order down, huffing at every chance he got, asked him for the bill, it went straight through him. Won’t be going back due to him, which is a shame but I’m not paying to be served like rubbish.

Previously had good service, but this time the man serving inside was incredibly rude. Did not take drink orders, and when I asked him about ordering a drink he said ‘you can wait and order when you order food’. Weirdest thing to happen to me in a restaurant. Won’t be returning, and we were frequent customers. Shame, as the food is nice. But this man (acting like the manager?) was very unpleasant.

Amazing service and food as always. We normally have takeaways which are always perfect but decided to have a treat and eat in tonight, we were so pleased with our food and the service. Can’t wait to visit again and can not recommend Pink Garlic enough!

Collected an online order which said order would be ready in 20 mins, absolute shambles the queue was out the door, many other very angry customers, hardly any communication to deal with the situation, took over an hour to get food which ended up being cold. Will definately be changing were we get our Indian takeaway from now on!

Really busy tonight but the food was as good as always. Delicious. I would highly recommend.

Very nice meal! Staff very nice too. Popped in on the walk back to the hotel, glad we did. Thanks guys for a nice meal 😊

I have ordered from pink garlic in the past and never had issues however, today the food was cold, wrong items sent and when contacting pink garlic I was told “check your order carefully next time” I phoned because I’d checked my order and it contained wrong items. The curry was watery and on its arrival items had leaked within the bag causing great mess. I won’t be ordering from pink garlic again which is unfortunate considering previous experience not so bad.

The waiters were very attentive and friendly. Food was tasty and well-presented. We spent an enjoyable evening here and will be coming back again.

Filthy Dirty disgusting Please don't go the place needs shutting down. So un clean Lady opposite asked for a high chair it was so Filthy she refused to put her child in it I don't blame her I wouldn't either. The service was dreadful we waited for over an hour, the place was busy but you could see everyone was frustrated that they weren't getting there food because they were so busy concentrating on take aways it seems they need to concentrate on either the restaurant or delivering because they can't keep up with both. It will be the last visit I won't be going again. Xxx

Filthy dirty Disgusting Don't go So busy dealing with take away orders that the restaurant gets forgotten about. Staff are un friendly. Service poor Waiting for over an hour.

Delicious food and friendly staff! Dall was really good, also the lamb dishes had very nice meat 👍

Chair covers kept coming off. Main course of duck was very tough, all main courses lacked flavour and pompadoms tasted stale. King prawn puri was very tasty and full best part of the meal. Plenty of on street parking that was free

Working away in Taunton and gave this place a go for a takeaway. Staff were really friendly, food was absolutely delicious, only knocked a star off because I asked for a garlic keema naan and only got a keema naan. You can't give five stars unless it's perfect I'm afraid. Would I go back though? Absolutely 100%

We went for the Christmas Day special. Curry? On Christmas Day? I hear you ask! Yes, why not? We’ve just moved into a new house, the existing kitchen is awful & I couldn’t face the intricacies of Christmas cooking for the in-laws, so curry it was. & we were not disappointed at all. An amazing deal & all dishes on the menu were available. The food was delicious, the atmosphere brilliant and the staff (although rushed off their feet) so kind & patient. Even the wine was really reasonable (so of course we had to have a few extra bottles). I live this curry house & will definitely be going back. Delicious.

Lovely little restaurant- food was amazing, big portions too and the cocktails were more than lovely!

Thanks Abdul and team for another great evening. Food in here is amazing and you are always looked after.

Failed to deliver an order they had accepted after 2 hours. This place just cancelled my order and left me to chase my credit card company to get my money back. There are far better places to order from in Taunton.

Ordered on line and payment taken and given delivery slot, when no food arrived tried calling. They let the phones ring out to answer phone. One hour past delivery slot they cancel my order on line. Why take orders and payment if you can't do it. Appalling Restaurant avoid at all costs.

Order accepted on line and given delivery time slot, this passed and no delivery. Tried calling and they just let phones ring through to answer phone. After two hours they just cancel the order. Appalling service, why take orders and payments if you can't do it. Will probably need to chase credit card company for refund. Avoid this place.

I recently went to the pink garlic and the there was a young boy (his name badge said William) at the front of house , he was sat drawing and ignored me when I came in and when someone he was chatting to pointed out I was there he then shouted at me while he was still sitting down drawing , considering I was standing 3 meters away and he was shouting across the room at me. I Was waiting for my food then the phone rang he huffed and was swearing loudly under his breath which was disgusting and I told him he was being unprofessional and he told me to calm down, I got my food and left. I was absolutely disgusted and I’ve never had an experience like that anywhere! The food tasted nice but the food was swimming in oil/butter and it made me feel so sick and gave me such a bad stomach. I had some of of my curry left now baring in mind the container was half full this was the amount of oil made me sick to my stomach like I was literally just eating that 🤢 I had to throw it away after

Over 1hr wait for delivery, stopped answering the phone so that they don't have to answer awkward questions. Useless. Order from somewhere else.

Stopped here on my way back home from the cinema and liked the look of their menu. Great choice as the food was superb. Had the fish Thali - lovely selection of dishes from a creamy korma to a spicy chili dish. Generous helping so ended up taking half home for dinner the next day. The best Indian meal I've had for quite some time - I shall definitely be going back!!

Went here last night for a takeaway, order lamb tikka masala pilau rice and garlic naan, The meat was very tough although tasty woke this morning with a really bad stomach which nearly 24 hours later is only just easing, really not going here again sorry.

Boyfriend Ordered food at 9:40 through just eat At 10:40 the food said delivered but it hadn’t been so I rang to ask why it said delivered Guy was blunt on the phone and said the man had only just drove off with the food. At 11:30pm my boyfriend went to stand outside and walked down the road to see where they were and found it left outside some random persons front drive, food is now freezing cold and no one tried to contact us and we ordered a vegetable korma with our order but they sent a chicken one.

Lidl freeway cola 59p per liter bottle sold at pink garlic for £4.95 a pint starter sauces used and taken from the table only to be served straight to another paying customer for the leftovers to be eaten.

Fantastic food, lovely decor, friendly staff

Been here a few times now and never had a bad meal. Service is always very good and efficient.

Takeaway never arrived, they blamed the just eat driver. Forced me to call just eat to resolve it rather than trying to fix it themselves. Tried to offer a bottle of beer to a recovering alcoholic to rectify the situation. Food finally arrived 2.5 hours later despite me telling them I no longer wanted it and would be requesting a refund as I'd already ordered from Maliha. Good luck if you decide to order takeaway from them.

Absolutely cost effective and best curries and services provided ever by any Indian restaurant!

Guys please don't tip this place as the owner takes it all, none of the staff gets it, and he is a moody greedy guy taking tips for himself, and the staff works really hard and over worked owner name is abdul stay away!!!

Good food, good drink and very helpful staff. Been from out of town made to feel welcome and then helped us out when we had a taxi issues. THANKYOU!

Popped in on the of chance of getting a table as we had not booked, they were more than happy to accommodate us. The service was wonderful and the food was fantastic - thank you guys.

Went for a meal with a friend, got sent to the back of the restaurant and put in the corner like naughty school children. Then was ignored when we tried to order drinks, wish id walked out as the food was appalling.

After being recommended this restaurant by many people, i made my first order for delivery tonight. Unfortunately they forgot my naan bread but the food was absolutely beautiful, will definitely be back.

We ordered a takeaway from here to try the place out. The food was good, but we felt that the price of the food was a little much for a family takeaway, and that was with the discount that we were offered for ordering it as a takeaway.

Well, I ordered this evening and i got the wrong dish. However... I called and was a ligit mistake, it happens accidents do. But im gonna say the chaps at pink garlic were very understanding and very happy to accept the accident and rectified this very quickly and without fuss. So with that amazing customer service and the delicious taste of the food I have no choice but to award 5* the lamb tikka massala was very sweet flavoursome, the balti was full bodied and auromatic and il give the banquet a go it seems like a very very good offer and I'm sure my family and i will enjoy.

Went for a birthday out and it just happened to be banquet night. Nice starter and a great Rogan Josh and Labadaba ( or similar ). Only problem was a flat Pepsi but they were happy to exchange. And I don’t think the owner is...

If i could give more stars i would! Staff beyond lovely, food lovely, friendly environment, they want to help you, and even kept staff there beyond closing time, ive been to places where they try to hurry you out, or order quickly, not this place. I recommend this place very highly 10/10.

Very good service food exellent

Great service, very tasty food!! The mixed platter starter was amazing. Their onion bhaji 😍😍 best ever!! Definitely a place to come if you like well prepared and presented Indian cuisine.

Went on a banquet night, Wednesday, I think it happens on a Tuesday too. Choice on the menu starter main course then coffee or ice cream, Nan or rice included for £12.95. The food was freshly cooke, hot and great. The guys serving were pleasant...

Great value on banquet night . Great food

Happy to give a 10/10 score across all areas. Excellent food, speedy and extremely polite service. Will definitely be coming back for more.

Nice food, pleasant welcome Sadly order was wrong (thought it was a little expensive)! Would have got 4* had order been correct. No local so won't be visiting again. Overall, disappointing

Lovely food and very friendly and understanding staff. Will visit again

Always enjoyed a meal at pink garlic but not this time! The food was awful. After a long wait, we were served very salty onion bahjis, followed by a very bland curry, the rice was tasteless. Best bit about the meal was the chips! Won’t...

Varied menu to suit all tastes. Friendly staff.

Nice food, pleasant surroundings. Good service. Tasty food with plenty of options on the menu. Book online through website and phone orders for take out.

Gorgeous food, lovely friendly service , nice atmosphere as really busy (glad we booked). Went with husband and another couple for my birthday and not disappointed. Thank you PG!

Great food and worth going on banquet night as you get a starter, main course, rice/naan and a dessert/coffee for £12.99. Good atmosphere and plenty of nearby parking.

First visit for me and my partner. Unfortunately, what would have been a lovely evening was spoiled by a group of 15-20 young men on a beer fuelled night out. Their constant shouting, swearing and almost every 5 minute leaving the table, to smoke outside...

Went with the family tonight, 5 of us, Absolutely amazing service and fabulous food. The 8 year old described her food as “being touched by an angel”😂. Thank you for an amazing night

We have dined and had takeaways from you plenty of times in the past but tonight's takeaway was awful. The chicken was so dry, we couldn't eat it. I am sure it was frozen.The peshawari naan had no filling at all. We threw it away. Nearly £30 worth of food thrown in the bin. Will be looking for a new Indian restaurant now.

Great food and really friendly staff

This restaurant is amazing! It doesn't look very special from the outside, or the inside come to that, but the food is incredible, the atmosphere is excellent, and the service is superb. I wish I had paused to take photos of my food, but it...

I never been to this place someone using my name and account i already report to police

Very pleasant atmosphere and good quality food.

Ordered a takeaway for 19.15 - food wasn’t ready and finally came out at 19.45 with no apologies at all. (Just eat orders prioritised) Got back home to find the mixed grill and Poppadoms were missing!! 12 attempts at calling but it won’t go through....

The food was delicious and plenty of it. Very helpful staff and reasonably priced. Well worth a visit 😋😋😋😋

Tasty food. Polite staff. Sensible prices. Service a bit slow or would be 5*

We love it here the food is excellent I feel they are under pressure and require more staff but 10/10 from me and my husband 😊

Food is amazing, as always and great value. Service is fantastic and always with a smile, chat and laugh. I highly recommend to everyone.

It has certainly gone down hill massively from my last visit, from the quality of the food to rude staff.

It seems from recent posts the new owners have perhaps had some teething troubles. I have got to say that we have been a couple of times in the last month and have nothing but good to say. Went once with family (three generations) and...

Visiting the area and chose to dine here for the night. Great, authentic food with a nice setting.
