So good, was looking for that different south asian food experience, found it. Portions right, slightly more authentic menu than a lot. Staff amazing, cannot rate highly enough

I ordered a takeaway, it was prepared fairly quick compared to many others i have ordered. The service was decent, parking onsite available. I live fairly close roughly a ten minute drive when i open the box the food was not hot it was just above warm, the fries were soggy and should have been packed seperate, the grill had a big selection however far from the tastiest iv had, the curry was very dissapointing it tasted of tomatoe puree as it had probabky been cooked in alot of tomatoe and the taste was overwhelming and that was for both it did not taste authentic what so ever. I did not finish the meal, the naan however was the highlight of our food it was a nice tasty naan and tsted fresh. Over all i wouldnt go bavk for the tawa however i may try eating in at some point in the future.

Edit : This place is closed now permanently. My full experience of Akbars. Please read through. Walk-in experience : Made us wait for 10 min in the lobby even though the table we booked was already free and ready. The staff called us out like this - "5 people, follow me!" when taking to table. The staff ordered this before we even sit - "We will not give any extra naan, chapati, curry once you place the order. You can only order once as we are very busy" Who would like to go to restaurant to be treated like this? Still, we had long day so we sit to eat. Food experience : It's not enough to just say that "taste of every item caters to British tounge". The food here has serious issues. 1. Too much food colouring (see the photos) . It's dark red in colour without any red chillies taste. 2. No water provided at table. (Find it in the photos if you can) 3. Peshwari naan had no dry fruits, Garlic naan had no garlic. But it was like Indian naan, so I give them a point for this. 4. In the name of mix raita, I got curd with salad topping. It is disgusting they call it as raita. 5. They missed the raita while writing order and later blamed on us that we didn't order it. 6. Served main course before starter. 7. Served raita after main course (after reminding thrice) I don't eat non - veg but my friends who went with me said this about non-veg 8. Portion of Akbars special biryani is 1/4 of any other place like Chennai dosa. 9. Starters are dry and hard to chew. It's disgusting. Please avoid this place, the service and food both are undesirable.

Got my reservation name wrong, it’s Harinder…repeatedly said it! Turned up the staff were embarrassed-reservation was down as a Linda! Said I’d book under that name if ever I come back, plus it’s my local 😕 there was also a hair in my chicken I ordered - very disappointed ☹️
