Planet Poppadom in Great Yarmouth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Very disappointed. The meal lacked any flavour. And I mean any. A garlic chicken dish that had no flavour at all. Samosa made with dry pastry. And staff that were basically unprofessional.

Attended with the family as they were visiting, 13 of us in total, great night out, food was top shelf, had a great night out. as always the boss here is very attentive and helpful in every sense of the word. the lady waitress, who has been here for a god few years now, is top notch. alway like to come here and would recommend to family and friends, so why not treat yourself, if your out this way, have never been or looking for a good curry house, give it a try.

One of the worse dinners we ever had. The manager was extremely rude from the moment we placed our order. The chicken didn't seem like chicken, and when we returned after having a bite, he said we ate most of it. They should not have a business if their customer service is this poor. Will never visit here again. WARNING, if you want rude customer service and terrible place to eat, this is the place to go! Disgusting

Complained about chicken in two different dishes wasn’t nice only to be shouted at by the manager who then started swearing so the police were called. Unprofessional behaviour would not recommend this restaurant not only for the food but mainly the rudeness of the manager

DO NOT EAT HERE THE FOOD IS RANK!! The staff are okay but the manager is soooo rude. Over priced We ordered a mixture of dishes which included lamb dishes and chicken. The chicken dishes was disgusting. There’s not many people who hasn’t tried a standard tikka masala but this tikka masala was so rank! The texture of the chicken was jelly and the sauce wasn’t nice at all just too sweet. The manager also does not take polite criticism very well

worst indian ive ever had and the rudest manager ever, my friend had a prawn cocktail starter that was tasteless so asked for some pepper and they said they had ran out of salt and pepper i thought they were joking but it was true, i ate my prawn puree as i was starving but even that was bland, my friend left her prawn cocktail, next up was chicken tandoori for my friends daughter and me both dishes tasted like boiled chicken i would not give to my dog, so we refused to pay, at that the manager said we had eaten some so it cant be that bad, at that i swore at him and said you have to eat some to taste it at that he bolted the doors and rang the police demanding 88 quid for one bland prawn puree and so we sat it out and waited for the police but they never came and as there were lots of other people in there eating and children i could see it getting out of hand i was boiling over so i decided to pay, this place was nice 2 years ago when we visited yarmouth but do yourselves a favout and avoid it like the plague

After walking in the pouring rain for what seemed like hours and looking at places on the seafront for dinner, we decided on coming in at Planet Popadum. When greeted by an unfriendly server when we said we hadn't booked and sighing because it was difficult to give us a table for 2 in a what seemed like a fully booked restaurant, we were sat in a empty room (and by the time we left there was one table of 6 left) Ordered lamb shashlik, king prawn shashlik, tarka dhal, brinjal bagee, a garlic naaan and needless to say food was excellent, tasteful and freshly made. Washed down with a Kingfisher and a chilled glass of pinot grigio. And the server cheered up by the end when we told him we had a very enjoyable experience.

Ordered lamb tikka got chicken tikka balti. The sauce was so watery it was like dish water no flavour Was husbands food was also very watery he had chicken tikka masala popadums also tasted stale. Tried talking to manager who tried making a joke of it. As he was too busy flirting with his waitress.What you complaining about it’s the same price. Was his reply. I told him I didn’t want to make a fuss just wanted to tell him his mistake and at least expected an apology but just got laughed at.

Came here for dinner with my girlfriend whilst on holiday. Food was delicious and service was good. Food was reasonably priced too.

Very average food. The food was OK but no better than you could get at a cheap takeaway, the service was what you'd expect from Indian culture, very pleasant, with nice decorations throughout and attentive waiters. However the food is very average, sometimes burnt, and for Indian food, quite bland in flavour. If you aren't looking for anything special, and would like to find somewhere accessible to eat then this restaurant is a fine option, but for those of you who are expecting anything more, I would look elsewhere.

One of the best curry houses I have ever tried, we went to great Yarmouth for a 2 night stay and went here on the first night and couldn't resist another visit the following night.

I went early lunchtime. They seemed surprised to see me.No Naan as the oven was not on,a microwaved curry in a cold dish...honestly wish that I had not bothered.

Food was fab! Food and drink came out reasonably quick. Best indian i've ever had, and i've had a few! Staff are very friendly and cheery. Tables and chairs are nicely spaced out (very nice chairs as well). Situated on the seafront, close to nearby attractions etc. Naan breads were massive. Loved every bit of visit. Definitely will be going back when in Great Yarmouth again.

Visited whilst on a short break to Great Yarmouth, this has got to be one of the best Indian Restaurants I've been to, the food was so tasty and authentic, not over priced either. The staff were all very pleasant and welcoming. All in all a very nice experience and will certainly be back when next in the area.

We weren't sure about going here, as my husband has a Guide dog, don't know why I was worried. Fabulous welcome, fabulous food, we are only here for a week and will be going back. Portions are generous , we couldn't fault anything that we had. I had the prawn biryani, loads of prawns (couldn't eat it all) husband had the chicken tikka and enjoyed it very much, the samosas were also good. Then the dessert they had kulfi , had to have it. Delicious. They do cater for vegetarians not sure about either vegans or young children. If a large group you would need to book. We were recommended by a local

Went here for an anniversary meal. A bottle of run of the mill Rose Wine was over £20-00. We ordered 2 starters, one arrived as a starter, the other arrived with the main courses. The main course was well cooked and very tasty. Other diners...

One of the best dinners i have ever had. excellent service, friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. very clean as well. ordered the chicken tikka with egg fried pilau and was absolutely beautiful, came quite fast also considering it’s all cooked fresh. Quite cheap as...

Dropped in for a meal after the great yarmouth ghost walk (also recommended). The food very good quality, and the staff very friendly. Best Indian restaurant in gt. Yarmouth in my opinion.

Food is fantastic we go in here every time we vist great Yarmouth and we are never disappointed with our meals staff are nice aswell

The staff were friendly and professional the service was excellent. The food was delicious and very good. I would recommend giving this restaurant a try. Keep up the good work.

Exceptional customer service, lovely staff, great selection of food, everything cooked perfectly and reasonably priced.

We decided to eat here on Sunday evening as the food at the hotel we stayed in was not good. The staff were very welcoming, attentive and gave us advice on the menu. The meal was served on lovely hot plates and our butter chicken...

We have eaten here a few times however after our latest visit we are hesitant to return. It seems they have changed chef as the butter chicken used to be amazing but now it seems very greasy and a completely different flavour. Hopefully the usual...

Went here as our last night out at the end of season. As always, great food, the manager and his staff as always friendly and chatty. Had a great evening in general. Good portions as always plentiful. Food cooked to perfection and required taste. Very...

We went here as a family and I have to say, from the management to the food and facilities, this place is definitely one to avoid. Speaking to the manager doesn’t help as he is rude and does not care and knows there are no...

Stopped here on a Monday evening. The place had a few others eating which is a good sign. Very warm welcome. Lot's of dishes to choose from. Food looked great and very tasty Also a very nice atmosphere.

we went recently and had we read reviews we would have probably not tried it. So glad we did though, friendly service, really nice food with dishes that we hadn't tried before. Maybe October was quieter than when others had reviewed this place. We really...

Really rude older gentlemen, miserable and like he really couldn't be bothered, lovely friendly young girl serving. Food really good though large meal so asked for it to be packed to takeaway, was informed I had to pay for takeaway treats,never come across this before....

Got in there at 6:30pm no waiter till about 7pm (was a big family in there but still we ordered 1st)which I was told to do online so will hopefully get to the chef quicker then a waiter coming over ,so ordered online and payed...

Clean and bright Restaurant, granted service is a little slow, bit not bad enough like some people to mark it down to a two !! Food was great. Portions are plentiful and the meal over all was above average. I will be more than happy...

Poor customer service We went in as a walk in, and our drinks order taken and delivered quite quickly. Unfortunately that was the end of any sort of customer service. We sat for 40 minutes waiting for someone to take our food order, the girl...

Came in on the night of Tuesday August 3rd with my wife . We were seated and drinks orders were taken quickly. We then had to wait 40 minutes for our starters and a further 30 minutes for our mains. There wasn't anything wrong with...

Half the neon sign on the outside doesn’t work which sums up the restaurant. The food was middling Indian, not bad at all. A decent meal for £20 a head, with efficient and friendly service. But the place looks a little tired, both inside and...

Visited with family. Trip from birmingham Pros . 10% off if you order via app even.for dine inn. Friendly staff.. lovely nans and curries not too bad Cons. Small portions for what you pay for. Starter minute , ordered kebab mix .paid approx 4-5 pounds....

Great place to eat food very tasty fresh and overall delicious good choice of beer and wine staff friendly and helpful even shared a joke with the owner overall great experience highly recommend

We had a very pleasant meal served by attentive and very friendly staff. In particular, the young lady who looked after us was charming and solicitous despite being very busy.

We visited on the 17th June and it was amazing. From the moment we walked through the door until we walked out it was lovely. The staff are so friendly and helpful, made us feel comfortable and relaxed. I large menu to choose from at...

We ordered take away today for just for two of us. First The person who answered the phone was so rude. And we spent around £43. We ask for spicy curries. We didn’t got any spicy food and no taste at all. No salt in...

Firstly I will say we had no issues with the food, it was very tasty, however the dining experience itself was not good, awful infact. We had a terrible waiter who was very miserable, rude, interrupting us when we politely tried to talk and totally...

Didn’t book, found on trip advisor so thought we would try it! Asked to scan QR code for track and trace and sanitise hands on arrival. Face masks must be worn until seated. Restaurant fairly quiet, but it was a Sunday night. All extremely clean,...

What a fantastic experience!! We were hungry early and popped in to Planet Poppadom ... fabulous service and World Class food. Best curry we've ever had. Highly recommended.

Im a regular curry eater, usually use the Gorleston indian restaurants, thought id try Planet Popadum take away as haven't eaten from there for a while and I like the creamy pathia which they dont havel in Gorleston, well it wasn't creamy but very watery...

Placed our order and were quickly served with our starter of 4 popadoms and pickle tray. The popadoms were cold and soft like they had been sat around under the counter and the lime pickle was dried up. I questioned the pickle with the waiter...

It is horrible no taste how they can own 3/4 Indians in the same area is beyond me I will be ringing tomorrow to tell them the situation as they are now shut would not recommend any of the restaurants

Do not go anywhere near this place Rude staff Wrong food serve Didn't give a monkey's After saying for sure no nuts Served food with nuts Could have been disastrous Didn't care Rotten place rotten manager Just very unprofessional

Avoid this hovel at all cost. Do not waste your money. After specifically asking if one of the dishes had an ingredient my friend was allergic to and being told no, the dish ordered came out with the very ingredients she was allergic to so...

We ate here on Thursday night whilst staying at Haven in Caister. We had decided to just turn up in Great Yarmouth and hope to get in somewhere. We didn't have a booking but only waited a few minutes. It wasn't overly busy but there...

Poor food, rude staff! Not recommend ! Small portion of food, food wasn’t good quality, very oily and rice was old.

Terrible restaurant. Staff are extremely rude and unwilling to help. We went on a Thursday and the menus offered a Thursday banquet however when we asked (just to be sure) whether they were doing the banquet they said no. After 1 family left because of...

I like the new order online. Unfortunately the food took ages to come, not a problem really. But. The crab starter at nearly £7 was only potatoes, staff bit surly . The main course was 4 pieces of lamb with a sweet sauce from tescos,...

Went here for evening meal with family...we did book up prior to visit just...had a good curry etc..staff where really helpful.

Great service, delivering to the boat moorings for us. Food was really nice, would possibly have preferred it with a little more heat (chilli/ spice heat), but still really good

Nice restaurant with some nice people. The COVID-19 restrictions made this an odd experience. We ordered food on an app which was only partially working and drinks orders had to be made with the waiters. Food was served on the wooden trolley and we took...

Just had a takeaway from the Planet Papadum and probably the best curry since moving up from London. Food was hot on delivery and delicious. We can't wait for the restaurant to open as per normal. Well done to the chef.

Visited the restaurant on Thusday Evening. Advetisising. Starter, Main, rice or Nan, side order. Good came, I Orderd a meat jalfaze with rice, Shish kabas a potato side order and pompoms. The Shish Kabab were tasty less, with no flavour what so ever. The Jalfaze...

Best in town nothing else needs to be said. Only negative is the lemon rice it has chunks of lemon skin init.

My wife went for a walk along the seafront here and found this restaurant yes let's give it a try well we left after the most wonderful meal in a long time staff were great food well cook and great this is one on our...

We have eaten in quite a few Indians and this is right up there as one of our favourites amazing food amazing staff very good food x

Just had a fabulous meal here. Asked for a meal recommendation and the waiter came up with a fantastic choice - Ginger Aim. One of the best Asian meals I've had and definitely worth coming again. Thanks!!

Went here last night lovely friendly staff nice atmosphere and cheap menu well worth going thankyou for a great night

Return visit after a while away,prepared to give Planet Poppadom a second chance. Oh dear, no change !! Lurid coloured dips, dahl soup just awful,. Main courses poorly presented, Mango Chicken tough texture and sweet,sickly sauce, essentially bulked up mango chutney with lurid orange colouring....

We thought we would give Planet Papadum a try as a change from our usual fish & chip supper when in town - it’s very pricey for Great Yarmouth!! £5.25 for a large bottle of still water - really?? The poppadoms were fresh but there...

Had a takeaway as fancy something different the food looked nice online but when it arrived it was cold and un appetizing wont be ordering from them again

We visited tonight and was completely disappointed and disgusted with the food and service. From start to finish the food was awful.. cold, and just thrown together. We were halfway through our starter and then were asked had we finished as our mains were ready....

We went for the thursday "banquet" and thought that the portions were very small. Not much meat in the currys and small serving dishes for veg and rice. Service was slow also.

As we are holidaying in Great Yarmouth, we thought we’d try this as a family friend recommended it - what a place! Lovely staff, delicious food, and definitely feeling full while we left. Good value for money too - if we come back to Great...

great meal .friendly staff .good service .clean resturant ..not expensive .would recomend to others .seafrount location

Visited on Thursday evening for banquet night which was extremely good value. For £10 you could choose from the normal a la carte menu, a starter and main dish with rice and a side. The food was beautifully cooked and presented. Don't be put off...

This restaurant was just along from the hotel and we saw the Banquet night advertised so we went on thursday evening. We asked the waitress to clarify what was on offer for the banquet and she told us anything we wanted and if we ordered...

Was over Yarmouth way and have often seen this advertised and thought it may be a gimick but it clearly was not. It was lovely - not greasy, not westernised - just very authentic and very well cooked and presented. Will come again.

Great meal, great price, good service. A bit slow at first but once ordered ok, will use again when we stay at Yarmouth again

Shame that their poppadum's were stale and NOT fresh, lunch leftovers? Carrot in the raw onion Three different meals all nice Service good NO Strongbow sniffffff

The wife and myself ate here, the food was nice and the onion barjies deserve a credit as they were superb but i found the samasos a bit lacking in size although they were tasty. we had the two mild curries, chicken korma and another...

The food in this restaurant is a joy. Great choice and fabulous service. Have eaten in and taken away.

On arrival we thought the outside looked a bit sad. Inside the staff greeted us and we were shown to a table. It was early and we were asked what we wanted to drink. Myself and another ordered coffees and the waiter went to make...

We visit this restaurant whenever we go to Great Yarmouth and this last visit was awful. Staff have very little social skills, food portions were alot smaller than normal and we both left feeling hungry. Taste of food was very poor too. It's a shame...

Walked in on Easter Friday, not the warmest welcome and the restaurant wasn't ever so busy, seemed like they had had enough and didn't really want you there. Not given a lot of time to read menus and the waiter kept coming back and sighing....

We had a lovely dinner in the restaurant on Monday evening, it was very quiet but the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. We really enjoyed the meal.

Good food, good service, the nice atmosphere and the prices were very reasonable. The food came quickly and was hot and tasty and loads of it. Will go again.

If u have a spare 5 hours and dont mind having your order mixed up and raw chicken then it is fantastic.I personally prefer an Indian that doesn't involve the need to take a microwave with you when the food that you have ordered has...

Staying in holiday park accomodation in Great Yarmouth stumbled across this place... The prices looked reasonable so have it a chance. Decided to have take away and return to our caravan. Food was good and would return again. The fiancée got a rose as well,...

Thoroughly enjoyed my birthday meal with my friends here. The food was fantastic & really good deal on a Thursday to get 3 courses for £9.99. They took a photo for us & sent it via email so I could share it with who I...

Good food, descent portions, certainly left very full. Staff were friendly and happy to help. Reasonably priced. Will return.

In reality the food is not as good as the smart decor might indicate! Also I have never eaten a meal in there that looks anything like the pictures! That does not bother me so much as the fact that the taste of the food...

Had a great meal here at this restaurant, staff was very polite, friendly and eager to please, the food was out of this world and we went back again as it was so good, thank you guys for the great time, food and hospitality keep...

Staff not very friendly,food ok expensive for what it was, drink expensive too, place ok but won’t be rushing back,

We were going to have fish and chips until we spotted this place. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Service was good although the waiter was a little aloof. Well worth a visit.

if you like indian cuisine this is definitely the place to go. It has an excellent choice of menu, friendly staff and the food is delicious .

Visited the restuarant on a Thursday night, which happened to be their banquet night. £9.95 for a starter, main, side and rice is a very good deal. The restuarant was nice and clean with a modern deco. The service was very good and the food...

Visted here over the bamk holiday weekend , found it to be a pleasure . Good quality food , attentive staff , service with a smile. Will be returning here again soon.

The website states a gourmet nite at £ 8.95 on a Thursday however the price quoted in person was £ 9.95 and when challenged they said sorry I can't do it for that price!!!! So basically it doesn't matter what they advertise on their website...

Cannot knock the food what our party had was very good if a little dearer than most curry houses, but the manager was extremely rude to his staff in public and then tried to overcharge us with an even more items. When confronted he just...

Went here with a couple of friends for a meet up. The staff were very friendly. The food was good too, I had chicken malay with royal rice and my wife had lamb biryani which she thoroughly enjoyed. Food was hot and we did not...

Average but costly. What you would expect in a tourist area. Staff were less attentive as they have guaranteed customers. You are just profit generators in this place. Would we return- no!

Order take away.....told it would be 1 hour delivery....after 2 hours called , as was having dinner party so as long as food would be delivered we were ok.....after 3 hours and lots of calls and them saying on way, we were angry as few...

We went to this restaurant thinking it was family friendly however we thought wrong. The service was absolutely rubbish, the way they were speaking to us regarding the cake we had for my birthday was very disappointing. They knew there were small kids around us...

Decided to visit Great Yarmouth for the weekend and surprisingly came across this Indian restaurant that we thought would be nice for a relatives birthday meal. HOWEVER! I would say the food was ok, to me it didn’t really look appealing but we ordered a...

First time in Great Yarmouth for a weekend with the family to celebrate my niece’s birthday and what an absolutely horrific experience eating at this place?! Firstly when ordering the food the waiter didn’t explain the portion size of the starters and meals and it...
