Portreath Tandoori in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Ordered food for delivery, 3hrs late, stone cold already shut to complain so we didn't get a refund and didn't eat it. Showed online it had been delivered, rang twice and was told it will be there asap and they'll contact the driver. I had to drive down the road to collect it from a taxi driver. Cant understand why it took so long when we are literally 5 minutes up the road. Will not be using them again

Really good service, arrived quickly despite staying at a hard to find holiday cottage. Food was lovely not greasy, lots of flavour. Thank you

The new owner (2 weeks) was really nice, food was good, great onion bhaji’s. We took our own wine and had a lovely evening. The new owner has plans for the place and they sound great.

I recently dined at portreath tandoori and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. Despite hearing good things about this place, my visit was far from enjoyable.

It was a good experience, being not so far from the beach and getting Indian food on a reasonable price is best we can have at Portreath. We had a large group and tried many different varieties, but all was good in flavour, no disappointment.

Very disappointing - tried to order on line but would not send email link so could not order and receive 10% discount. Tried to order by phone but unhelpful gentleman would not match price on line and then cut off the phone! Very poor. Such a shame as have previously used them and they have been very good.

First and last time of using, food was not authentic tasting and almost tasteless, sag paneer worst along with spicy poppadoms which were so hard were inedible, Korma was ultra sweet dreadful. This was my birthday meal so disappointed

Pretty good curry, would use again. Good value for a takeaway.

Very amazing food, spatially Naan bread was very tasty!!!

Just can’t fault the food. Excellent, this was the 3rd take out we have had, gets better each time.

Took friends out for dinner as they had never been before. Went for Sunday Night All You Can Eat Buffet. However, we were unaware the restaurant/take away had changed hands 5 months ago and, at present, the buffet is unavailable. On saying that, they give you a deal for the same price and boy was it worth it? It certainly was!! We all had starters, poppadoms and the little dip bowls. Plus main meal off the menu, shared a rice between two and a huge naan bread! The food was absolutely delicious, customer service was excellent and even the chef came out with a kind word. Less than £70 for all 4 of us. . I would recommend this restaurant in a heart beat! Well done guys!! 5 star treatment Ps You still take your own booze too 😁

Got a takeaway from these guys last night. Really falvoursome curry’s and lovely naan bread. Would definitely recommend, and will defo order again.

Blatantly over charged. Family of 4 ate in. Food was ok, nothing special (albeit butter chicken was over sweet). They don’t have a licence so no alcohol. No atmosphere and only one person working the takeaway and restaurant. Empty so also no atmosphere in restaurant. Prices in menu were what I would expect for a good Indian. Shock however the bill when presented over charged almost every dish by£1 or £2 each. Only when I challenged it did they say - oh we have new owners and we haven’t printed new menus yet. That’s the new price… and still expected me to pay. When I refused they went to check with manager, which then was reluctantly accepted !! Shocking and clearly against the law to charge more than the advertised prices without informing. Food also Definitely not worth the inflated prices and barely the original.

Defiantly 5 o it of 5 food was hot arrived before predicted time. Naan bread was lovely and cheeses (I went for the cheese naan) would defiantly recommend.

Ordered food at 18:20 it’s now 20:03. I called the restaurant they said it’s probably traffic. I’m literally 5 mins down the road at the Amazon site. I Used to order here regularly now I remember why I stopped, I’m going elsewhere now. I could get a curry from Truro quicker than one 5 mins down the road make it make sense.

Had a takeaway was not impressed, not my usual Indian takeaway but wanted to keep it local, the chicken biryani was hard and the vegetable curry was like a runny soup. Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend, what a shame

SHOCKING!! Over hour and quarter late, fobbed off when I called after it being 45 minutes late, to be told it's on its way (I live 10 minutes away) and it still took another 30 minutes, no apologies for being late and then to top it off my vegetable curry was missing!!!! That was supposed to come with the biryani, £45 for a quite cold and awful meal. That's the last two times now I've had issues, definitely not using again. What's the point in ordering early then having to wait over 2 hours for your meal, I could've walked there and back quicker. Won't be getting my custom again!!!

Had food deliver’d from Porthreath Tandori 31st of October. It arrived an hour late after two calls to see where the food was. Food had leaked out in the bag it was deliverd in and was all over the containers. The Balti was cold along with the rice, my partners scampi was burnt on one side and raw on the other. Not recommended. Maybe eating in there is a better experience but I wouldn’t recommend getting take away deliverd from there. Total rubbish. A waste of £35.

Used the takeaway service and was excellent, ready for collection at the right time, friendly welcome and service, food was all very fresh and tasty, very reasonable cost. Highly recommended

Tried to order for tonight (21/09/23), the website says open at 17:00 pickup from 17:30 delivery from 18:00 as of 08:00 the earliest delivery is 19:00, no use to us. I suspect this is as much a Food Hub problem as a Porthreath Tandoori problem, either way after 3.5 years of using them, and always finding pre order stressful this is the end. Paul.

Had takeway. Really good food tasty and plenty of it. It was on time and the staff were nice!

I arranged for a party of 16 people to have a meal there last night. The food, service, staff and the attention was brilliant...Thankyou so much will definitely recommend to others

Very attentive staff and the food is good. The buffet was great value for money.

Came in on a rainy Wednesday lovely food Nice young waiter

3 hour waiting still not here, phoned to see why its not come apparently left the resturant 1 hour ago so going to have sweaty curry soon. No wonder I keep getting dodgy stomach.

We had a takeaway for six....very pleased. Will be back next holiday.

On holiday in Cornwall for a week and didn't fancy eating out so got a takeaway (collection) from here. All the food was excellent, great flavours and not greasy. Large portions and they don't skimp on the meat in dishes. Would recommend as a great alternative to eating out.

Yummy! Lovely lemon rice, gorgeous, jucy chicken madrass and sag, mouth watering mushroom bhagee and outstanding keema nan

If you want boutique hipster experience this is not your restaurant, I almost turned around and went somewhere else. But if you want arguably the best curry you’ve ever had this is place will hit the spot. I had Tawa Lamb, I’ve never had anything like it but loved it. Pannier Sag and Lemon Rice. It was all exceptional. The chef came out to take my order and was happy to modify meals if this is what you wanted.

Every time I have a meal it beautiful hot But lastnight I had a delivery of a chicken korma and it was thick and stoggie and the chicken was very dry which is unusual for them to send something like that out and it was my birthday meal so had no choice to put it in the bin (sorry portreath god know what you did to make it like that)

Nice dinner. Decent food at a good price. Ordered online and picked up in person. Quick and easy to complete

The staff were so friendly and calm but of ourselves the food was delicious and had many options to fill you up, I hope we can come again soon

Enjoyed lovely evening.. great food and really good friendly service ..

Had a great time here, great food excellent service. Loved it.

we have takeaways from portreath tandoori,never disapointed,always piping hot,generous portions and delicious.cant wait to go again :-)

Had a lovely meal, food was delicious and service was great. Would highly recommend!

Had a takeaway after reading on Facebook how nice it was definitely best takeaway since we moved here and tried many round here. Definitely will be a regular

We ordered a large amount of food tonight to be honest in the past on a Wednesday I wouldn't give it 5 stars we come from lanner to collect from portreath a little wait but it was so delicious 🤤 absolutely recommend it again

The place may not look much but the food and staff are great, and good value prices. 👍

I have been waiting 3 hours for my food iv been told 45 minutes then 10 more minutes my children was hungry waiting and fed up

The peshwari naan bread was lovely, but the korma had no flavour, tikka was sweet and poppadoms was soft like they was stale. Took half an hour to get to us.

Had a delivery, received a telephone call to update and ask if it was OK to deliver food a little earlier, absolutely! Food was lovely and hot we really enjoyed it and will definitely be ordering again. Thank you 😁

Lovely tasting food, great service and good prices.

Our first visit this evening for the buffet. Delicious authentic food , friendly staff and great value for money. Would definitely recommend.

Food outstanding and probably one of the best Indian meals we have ever had apart from the last one from here

We booked as a group and I was well pleased with the choice on the menu and the food was lovely. This place also does deliveries.

I ordered a vegetable biryani, there was no spice at all in the dish, the curry was full of mushy veg, no taste, the rice was greasy, no taste, no spice. My partner had chicken tikka masala, the sauce was watery, the chicken was burnt. The only good part was the popadom! The meal cost £33, Far too much money for lack of quality of food. If you want good Indian food I recommend you don’t go to this place!

Forgot naan bread. Phoned them up. Before we served up naan bread was delivered. Amazing hot fresh food. Amazing delivery lady. Friendly apologised although not her fault. Would recommend 110%. Amazing

Good cheaper Indian but make shore they get the hotness correct, as I ask for a very hot but it was mild!

Food was lovely, averagely priced, not licensed so bring your own booze

would love to be enjoying my curry but despite being told it would be delivered by 8:25pm...it's 9:55 and still no curry. 3 phone calls later and nothing, wont refund us unless we go there tomorrow. hungry, tired and will never use again.

What a load of rubbish...being told they couldn't find us...we called 3 times this evening and notnonce were we told this. Also, they've been delivering to this address for years....a load of rubbish. Do not use.

First time dining in (as we normally have takeaways) it was a Sunday evening & we had the buffet, it was a lovely, starters we're onion bhaji, veg samosas & chicken tikka, mains where chicken korma, lamb Madras & chicken bhuna with pilau rice, naan bread & a Bombay potato, plus popadums all for £13.95, excellent as always, many thanks.

Always order from here Always great flavours and well priced food Always turns up piping hot best Indian in Cornwall

Disappointing, didnt leave us too impressed Average and a bit bland

Ordered onion bhaji did not arrive in the bag phoned no one answered! Parathas we’re chewy very thick and stodgy and totally inedible. Shall not be ordering from here again!

Great, tasty authentic food at very reasonable prices. Faultless, friendly service. Who could ask for more? Thanks guys:-)

Great meal in a most unusual setting. Almost like a very clean transport cafe inside but the food was absolutely lovely and the service was good! Give it a try!

The food was very nicely cooked and full of flavour. The staff were also friendly and welcoming. The décor could do with just a bit of an update, and for more people to know the restaurant is here. We'd be back, for sure!

We placed a big order for our family whilst away on holiday, and the food was excellent and the service was very friendly. The fish masala was excellent and overall the food was tasty and plentiful. Thank you!

Considering this was recommended I found this to be the worst Indian food I've eaten since moving to Cornwall. Over cooked, dry meat and chicken. Tasteless naan bread and ridiculously sweet korma sauce and only 5 Prawns and 1 piece of potato in the prawn curry.. avoid ! Looked nice but ended up in the bin. HairyFoodyGuy on YouTube

Truly excellent curry , we are from Bradford and use to good curry's, it matched up to the best we get at home. Definitely worth a visit

Absolutely delicious Salmon Tikka.. wonderful polite service. Very yummy vegetable madras. Flavoursome rice, a friendly atmosphere. A must dine at!

Food was absolutely fantastic. Would certainly recommend

Spot on food faultless only 10 minutes over ETA no problem I live in the real world puuuuurfect

The food is amazing oh my god it so tasty 😋 me and my family will go there again the staff there are super star 🌟 🤩

Best Curry place in the Truro Redruth area also has an eat in restaurant but we prefer ours in front of the Telly, highly recommended. P.S, lovely staff as well.

Very good quality food , good prices lovely service, decor could do with updating .

Ordered the set meal for 1 for collection and was not disappointed. The food was really delicious and so generous that I have enough left for lunch and dinner tomorrow.

Great food. Felt takeaway was better suited than sitting in though.

Highly recommend. Had a takeaway delivery last night, food was amazing. Definitely will be ordering again.

We had a takeaway delivered and must say the food was amazing, everything was hot and very tasty. Will eat in next time. Thank you for your excellent service thank

If you want a high quality takaway that delivers when they say they will then this is the place. Food is excellent, best Indian takaway around.

Best Indian food I have ever had. Friendly staff and big restaurant, food always delicious and perfectly cooked Well worth a try!

We ordered a delivery online via their website at 6:10pm which said it would take over an hour to prepare and deliver. We were prepared to wait that long, given it was New Years Eve. The timer counted down, got to zero, told us our food was "prepared", "on route" and "delivered", still no food. Tried many messages on the chat group on their order page, no response. Tried phoning, and eventually got through to a nice lady. She took my details, asked how I had ordered and said the driver was on the delivery round and my food would be with us soon. No food arrived, and we had been charged for a meal we didn't receive. I sent an email to the company that evening and received no response. I telephoned 5pm (opening hours) the next day and spoke to the same lady. She said she was shocked we didn't receive our order and took a few details, saying she would look into it. By January 5th I had still not heard from the business, and had not had a refund, so I sent a further email, which was responded to immediately by "Ali" who said the accountant would refund my money. On the evening of the 6th, I still had no refund, so again sent a further email which said the accountant was dealing with it. At 530 on Friday 7th I finally got the refund. We don't mind waiting for good food, but the website is completely misleading, and I was lied to on the telephone. Disappointing as we had used this company in lockdown and the food was good, but this is an unacceptable way to treat a customer. We won't be using this business again.

Not fresh and unreliably slow. Ordered delivery online. Informed from their online system it would take an hour to prepare and deliver. Phoned after an hour to ask for an ETA. The nice lady explained it was waiting in a warmer for the last 30mins but it was going to take AT LEAST another 30mins for our takeaway to arrive as the driver was on a delivery round. We cancelled. Shame as I hear it isn’t bad food there from a local family member.

Friendly staff quick service for a sit down meal everyone enjoyed there meals very much the only down side is the restaurant is a bit cold at this time of year but wasn’t a major issue we will definitely return again .

The food was nice but be aware there is NO ALCOHOL and it's in the middle of nowhere so if you turn up in a taxi expecting a beer, you're done for. Very large portions but a bit of a canteen hall feel rather than restaurant.

Best Dansak I've tasted in a long time xx easy to order online and watch progress before going to pick up, been on time every time. Highly recommend.

The Portreath Tandoori Indian restaurant was really good the food what's delicious

Absolutely amazing!! Beef Ceylon and Butter Chicken along with naans and bhajis and samosas, thoroughly enjoyed it!! Order from here every time has been so good!!

Food was nice and good value but the venue feels very industrial and lacked any authentic atmosphere for an Indian restaurant. Overall nothing to get excited about.

I collected my order and the 10% discount wasn't applied,the garlic in tarka dal was burnt so impaired flavour and the yoghurt mint which was for my chicken tikka main was as runny as water this was my 1st visit,it could possibly be my last.the staff were polite.

Perfect food and very friendly atmosphere. Very reasonable prices.

Truely fantastic! 10/10 Superb food and brillaint service, friendly, polite and will cateer for your needs

Great food and service. Delivered to the door while staying local at Gwel an Mor. Communication through Google was prompt as well.

Well recommended came away stuff good food and quality nice waiter couldn't be more helpful

Delicious food and staff so friendly and helpful as always. Cant wait to come back again!

One of the worst food experience I ever had,food was half cooked.Just naming any preparation as India dishes is absolutely no guarantee of getting genuine Indian food,this was the absolute proof of that.Terrible :(

Tasty Food Nice and spicy, Very nice and pleasant Staff. Definitely will come back.

Odd restaurant in a converted industrial unit so no ambiance but really tasty food. Don't forget to take your own alcohol.

Great to have this on my door step really nice food

Food good but the building looks a little tired, needs some cosmetic repairs

We were 2 miles away from restaurant driving home when we ordered and happy to wait if could not deliver, but said can deliver where we were staying.. Parked the car, phone rings to tell me could not deliver as it was too far.. what a joke!

Just had a takeaway from this restaurant having read the reviews was expecting a great meal. The food was very disappointing and I thought expensive for the quality I received. The tandoori chicken was so dry over cooked and tasted stale, the tarka dal was...

good asian resteraunt, was a pleasure speaking with the owner.

OK curry. I was just a bit disappointed with the level spice in my tikka massala. It was not near any level of hot, maybe I should have asked for it to be spicy.

Excellent meal and service from all of the staff, Sam was very helpful, will return again soon.

We waited an hour for our food! It was excellent food when it arrived but they had loads of takeout orders which I suspect took priority to us sitting in the restaurant. The waiter was really apologetic but we were on the verge of walking...

Don't eat in The food was lovely but we had to wait nearly 45 minutes for the starters and then another 15-20 for the main We definitely recommend this place as a take out
