Purbani in Eastleigh

Really delicious food. We are not local but come to Netley regularly always look forward to a meal from here. So tasty nice portions. Never had a bad meal. Thank you

Had a takeaway from here. Much too much salt . Spoilt the curry completely for us. Also very expensive for 2 regular curries and 1 rice £25. Will not be returning.

Was in the area & thought I'd try this balti house, being a curry connoisseur from Brum (grew up on the curry mile) I would definitely recommend the Madras, very tasty dish with eye popping flavours, I couldn't comment on the lesser dishes as you can only judge a balti house by its vindaloo, Balti or madras, well done chef & thank you.

Hidden away but genuinely a lovely family ran r restaurant. Amazing food choices and so much flavour. The poppadoms etc were great and we're excited to return. Also offers a takeaway option. The establishment is small and it does get loud inside. Otherwise, spot on.

After a couple of visits recently we won't go again. Very mediocre food

Always a great place for curry!

This place is a little gem. Have been going regularly and always had great service and great food. Lovely flavours. Mixed kebab starter is my go to and has never disappointed.

I phoned and ordered for collection for new year's, service was really good and easy, shame I can't say the same about the food, I ordered a lamb bhuna, which was bland and no spice what's so ever, chicken byrani, this had flavour but no spices and the chicken tikka masala had a very strong lemon taste and again no spice. The best thing was probably the onion bajji's and samosa's with the mango chutney. It was a little disappointing as this got recommended to me. I don't get Indian take away very often but have you got to ask for spice and flavour? Maybe it was an off day as it was probably quite busy but after spending £100 I thought it would if been a lot better

Had a sit down meal here in the restaurant. It was ok, no better than any other Indian I’ve tried. Couldn’t fault it, was just ok. Everything was hot which is good. Service was ok. Wasn’t very attentive or accommodating. The whole experience was just abit ‘meh’. I’d probably eat here again to grab a takeaway but not to have a sit down meal.

Lovely Indian restaurant. Been to this one and the one in botley. Their mint sauce is to die

Not a regular SE Asian foodie but needed dinner on a Sunday night and the Prince Consort Hotel recommended we try here. Very extensive but unfamiliar menu but made some good choices. DO NOT forget to have the garlic naan bread. It was so good I had a second order for dessert!

First-time visitor went on word of mouth. Very nice.

Excellent experience. The hotter curries are exactly that !

As always excellent, its our go to place with all the family, we have 2 small children but staff are always very patient with them

Starter was mix kebab very dry had no taste baji also hard and tastless Onto the main chicken tikka madras had to spit out 4 pieces of chicken probably yesterday's tough around edges sauce was watery no spice at all very disappointing had better from tescos says it all never to ret

Staying on local campsite .. ordered takeaway to be delivered...arrived within hour ...Hot fabulous curry lots of chicken in it and great meat Samoas..along with other bits .lady who delivered very polite .thank you . Highly recommend

I have moved home, but if l want a real curry, l will go to Purbani Netley, worth the drive, curry excellent.

Booked this restaurant for the first time for a family Birthday celebration and was very glad that I did. Food was of excellent quality, portion sizes are quite large and the service was attentive but not annoyingly so. Will definitely plan to visit again in the very near future.

First time eating in, usually takeaway, weds night buffet night. So much food. It was very tasty and excellent value , will do it again soon

Recently in Netley I made order from this restaurant and was so good I went back for more the next day. Yep, they are that good!

We ordered a meal for collection, was estimated 30 minutes, completely reasonable. We ordered Chicken Garlic chili Chicken Jalfrezi Keema rice Cheese naan Chapathi Lime pickle Came to around £28 It was absolutely delicious, garlic chili was my favourite. So flavourful and the sliced green chilies were not too hot, just right. Lime pickle was devine, made my mouth water. We will 100% be ordering from here again.

If there was a 0 rating I would have opted for that. We arrived to only one table being occupied and thought we would receive fast efficient service, how wrong we were. Popadoms arrived quickly which were great but things went downhill from there. The order was eventually taken and food arrived with not too much of a wait. After a few mouthfuls of food a very long wavy hair was found in the curry, I made the waiter aware who went to the kitchen. He then came back to the table no apology but stated he didn’t know where it came from as the chefs were bald! We both stopped eating as we were put off and when the bill came we were charged £25 for the privilege of eating 4 popadoms, the few mouthfuls of curry and drinking 2 half pints of cobra. Never again will I be in there, no apology or real concern!

Fantastic food and great service! Love the specials and complementary drinks too

Great presentation and great service. Really enjoyed my time here. Would recommend, very trendy.Fantastic food with such a wide range of flavours to explore and experience. Great service in a wonderful environment cannot wait to taste more items off the extensive menu.

Had a lovely impromptu dinner after a long walk. Food was delicious and plentiful, service was great and we even had a complimentary baileys to round it off. We ordered a Lamb passanda, chicken tikka massala, pilau rice, garlic naan, peshwari naan, onion bhajees, poppadoms, bombay aloo and samosas. There was more than enough for three of us, the meat was very tender and tasty and every dish was good. Our food came out promptly, staff were attentive and smiley. All in all a very positive experience.

Food absolute rubbish it’s cooked f try on home ordered jalfrazi and chicken foul absolutely disgusting

Normally, we are very happy with the food; however, tonight we found the food to be too watery and therefore tasteless.

Lovely food and friendly people, staff were a bit rushed because they had a couple of Christmas parties in, but still great.

Lovely food and we wandered in towards the end of service but they were still brilliant and food was excellent

We've only had food here once, and it was to take away. It was lovely though, and the inside felt clean and welcoming. We plan to eat from here again and this time we might sit in. I liked the fact that they were generous with the meat, and there were obvious chunks of veggies in the curries. It wasn't just lots of sauce and a bit of meat.

Delicious food, great service. Highly recommend

We had a very pleasant meal here. The service was efficient and friendly. The food was very tasty. We arrived at 1800 and the restaurant was empty. It soon started to fill up after that. You could also see plenty of pick ups going on. Will come again.

Fantastic meal loved the prawn puri starter followed by a naga masala to grub and would definitely recommend

The best Indian meal I've had in years. Flavoursome, you can tell all the ingredients are fresh and so nicely prepared. Clean white tablecloths and linen napkins. A little more expensive but excellent value for money.

Enjoyed a pleasant evening with friends. The food was good as was the service. The food is reasonably priced but be aware of £9 for a glass of wine (cheaper to purchase a bottle but they don't offer this) and to pay for the Chutney thst accompanies the popadums.

The food is really good and that’s what a restaurant is about first and foremost. It’s all made in-house and cooked to order. The place is clean and well spaced out. The server was nice and engaging and food was delivered quickly with a warmth and friendliness that made a good experience better. We had a few dishes, all cooked fresh and to perfection, apart from a pakora dish that was oily. Perhaps to the taste of others but not ours. The tarka daal - often a good gauge for judging a restaurant - was excellent. The food is made with pride by a decent chef and it shows. They serve good coffee with warm cream, an excellent way to finish a good meal. Other customers seemed to know the staff and the take-away/delivery side was doing steady business. I’d recommend this to you for the friendly service, cleanliness but above all, the fresh food. If I’m back in the area, I’ll be back in here.

Every single time we order from here we are impressed. We want to actually eat in rather than takeaway as the food is so good it deserves more than just eating it as a takeaway. If I could give them six stars we would. They set an example and standard that is hard to match. Following on from this, I’m sat here again and they are so busy yet handling everything excellent. Looking forward to tonight’s meal! :)

Purbani Netley was too oily for our preference. For example, I was very excited to see that they had chicken pakorahs on the menu. It was flavorful while eating it; however, VERY oily. In the end, all you could taste was oil in your mouth. Customer service was attentive. The restaurant seemed to do a brisk take out business as we saw many people pick up their orders to go. No outdoor seating.

Really excellent food and very friendly staff. Every single part of our meal was delicious. Waiters provided great recommendations too! Thank you!

Was delicious but pricey. I love the complimentary glass of Baileys they offer, that's a really nice touch. The waiters are all very friendly and patient with the kids too.

Very good food and excellent service . First time visiting tonight with 2 friends, loved the food and drinks especially the complimentary baileys . We shall return .

Stunning evening celebrating a birthday. Great food friendly hosts amazing company. Always a pleasure dining at Purbani's Netley

Excellent dinner great food great service good prices. Recommend 100%

Just had the absolute misfortune of trying to order a takeaway from this restaurant that I have been using for many years! Call handler tried telling me that Biryani comes with a gravy! Explained that the vegetable curry comes separately but he argued that its part of the dish! In the end he apologised and said "I don't know why I kept saying that"! Finally got to the end of my order and said I'd like to pay by card over the phone. He said that they preferred cash on delivery and that I should make sure I had cash next time! When I asked why, he said there had been incidents where customers in front of them had used the details being given over the phone. I politely suggested that perhaps he shouldn't read the details back and his response in an aggressive tone was "I really wish you wouldn't keep challenging everything I say"!! What an absolutely disgusting attitude to have towards a customer.. Purbani Netley, you just lost yourselves a long term customer!

Wednesday night means it is Purbani Banquet Night! I have missed coming here for the last few months, but now dining has started again, I am a happy chappy! Food, service and decor are as excellent as ever.. roll on next Wednesday (other week nights are available).

Really delicious, great to eat in or take away.

A fantastic meal with fantastic service every time we visit. The Kulchi dishes are out of this world.

Our local and favourite indian restuarant. Food is amazing and service very good..when the food is served its placed on the hot rack how its ment to be. A lot of indian restuarant have stopped doing that. If your in the netley area of southampton give it a try. It wont disappoint

Me and my wife, went in for our wedding anniversary. Sat down to a lovely meal for two. The staff were fantastic, along with the food, decor and drinks. The food itself was excellent, with a wide choice and decent portion sizes. The staff went above and beyond with their hospitality, giving us complimentary drinks and arranged travel home.

I have reviewed this restaurant before - giving it five stars for its excellent food. We have continued to order from this restaurant as the food is so good. The staff are very polite and the menu extensive. Sadly, we have had a frequently re-occurring error with items missing from our telephone orders. One mistake is something that happens - we are all human and can make mistakes. Two of the same mistake is a bit irritating. However tonight was the FIFTH mistake where one portion of pillau rice was missing. As each error has occurred, I have phoned and the restaurant has been very apologetic. However, they seem to not have put some form of checking into this issue they have - I feel incredibly frustrated by this. We are getting to the point that no matter how good the food is - this problem has not been fixed and is totally unacceptable. I'm sure many other customers have experienced this.

Went there on a Wednesday where they offer a special banquet meal at a reduced price. Unfortunately found the food to be bland and the service although good, the waiters need to cheer up a bit, they seem unhappy which is a shame. Not saying we wont try it again as it may of been one of their off day's, although if it is a family run business they need to step up. Maybe Gordon Ramsey should pay them a visit!

Ideal for a cosy romantic meal. Fairly quiet when we went, but food excellent and staff very friendly.

We had a nightmare experience at this place and suggest everyone avoid it. Food is nice but the staff are hostile. We were welcomed and quickly provided with the poppadum starter. When we'd finished the starters the waiter offered us the menu. It offered some...

I can only assume that this restaurant is under new ownership. It has for many years been our preferred delivery Indian meal, not after tonight. The task of ordering a meal for 4 was hard work, an unfamiliar level of service. No more chirpy friendly...

Visited with Aussie relatives. Had a wonderful visit, as always. Lots of laughs and interaction, even speaking Italian at one point!! Our Australian relatives thought it was the best Indian/Bangladeshi meal they had ever had. Freshly cooked and great value.

The Purbani was recommended to us by a few local people , all I can say is fantastic great value , fabulous food , and really nice staff , thank you to Tania and the team see you again real soon , 👍👍

Visited Purbani Netley for the first time with friends, the service was excellent.. The Food was the best we have had for some time, all cooked fresh and very well presented, and with a great atmosphere, we will be going there again.

Food is very good, freshly cooked and well presented. Service is first class and staff are excellent.

The staff here are the kindest guys. Always have smiles on their faces for you. I highly recommend here for their curries.

Wonderful food and lovely staff everything is fresh and the spices are stunning. I love the puri prawn

As always, Purbani did not disappoint. The food here really is outstanding and the service is second to none.

Went last week had a great experience all the staff are very friendly and everything well organised special thanks to chef for his magic touch curry . It was just amazing. Highly recommended. Definitely going back again

ONLY AS HOME DELIVERY - but as the title says, for me quite possibly the most tasty (and authentic) I've ever had as a take away. Particularly recommend the Chicken Tikka Achari and the King Prawn Passanda - though the Passanda is not as usually...

Used Purbani for a midweek takeaway whilst staying with friends. Gave a large order by phone, delivered 40mins later as promised all hot and correct to order. Good food, will use again when next in the area.

Early diners, very welcoming and attentive staff without being too intrusive. Food excellent with plenty of choice.

We have just received a takeaway after waiting an hour and a half. The food was cold, 3 poppadoms instead of the 8 we paid for and when we called the lady didn't even start the discussion with an apology. Then when we unpackaged the...

Just had my second takeaway from here as was just as good as the first. Very tasty well cooked meals. Been very disappointed with other places around Southampton but very happy with the quality I defiantly recommend you give this place a go.

I got a takeaway from this restaurant. I had a duck chatt for my starter and the chicken tandoori Massala for my main dish. Both dishes were tasty. However as always seems to be the case when you order take out you do get a...
