Purple Olive Ashton in Tameside - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

One of our favourite places for Indian food, went with the family, looked after the grandkids great.

Excellent service, exotic variety of food, friendly staff and wonderful ambience. We were looked after and treated like royalty even on a busy Friday night!

Went there for the first time last weekend. The food and service was excellent.Couldn't fault it in anyway. Would recomend and visit again.

Lovely food staff always chatty & friendly service is 10/10 if you haven't been here I recommend you visit cannot fault the food or the service here

Takeaway delivery Ordered flaming hot curry medium hot Received childrens curry zero spices Had to spend £20 for free delivery Total waste of money

Called in food a curry with the family the place looks not bad and the food was average but we had chicken pakora which was minced chicken strange plus the curry I had the chicken was the exact size in every piece just did not look right make of this what you think but I will not be going back amaani in Ashton is well better and cheaper

Love this restaurant great food great staff even when busy.

Fantastic place amazing food and great staff Trish was awesome on the bar and Mickey the manager was brilliant.. great food from the chef Acki who looks after us every time we come in Can’t fault this place !!! 5 star food

Lovely food good service. Good find.

Very first class food s excellent waiter service

It was the first time at this restaurant and I can't have enough praise for them. The welcome.we got was wonderful, so friendly. The service was exceptional considering they had to take 19 different orders the staff were patient, friendly and so very accommodating. The food was amazing, plenty of choise

Thank you for a fantastic 40th birthday meal. The food was amazing. Fantastic service and friendly staff. We was given the party menu such good value. Loved the birthday cake and song. We had such a great night and will definitely be coming back 😊

Wonderful place staff outstanding and the the food is 5 star eat there every two weeks

Can not fault the place gorgeous food and every member of the team are polite happy and nothing is too much trouble. Excellent customer service.

What a lovely place great food great service what more could you ask for. I've eaten at a lot of restaurants and this is the best Asian restaurant we have been to.

Been twice and both times exceptional food,Staff and service.

Best curry house by far. Highly recommended it.

Visited here 3 times and it’s always excellent. Great for large groups and very good value with the set menu prices.

Delivery service is poor have to spend £20 set up account to find out at the end cash only hhhmmm wonder why. Went else where waste of time

Decor nice and nice staff but food could do with improvements, lots of use of red food colouring takes away from the flavour/quality. Wouldn't go back.

First time ordering, omg it was all so tasty, cooked perfectly, I really enjoyed, defo be ordering again, or maybe even a visit to the restaurant

Food was great quality good service from staff helpful and fun would recommend 🔥

First time we have been here. Excellent food lovely staff. Definitely be back

We went to this restaurant to help a close friend celebrate their birthday. Staff were very welcoming from arrival - there is a car park, but beware of potholes. We arrived at 6pm, and we noticed from the moment we arrived that many of the other customers were regulars who were known to the staff, and many had children with them. The place is clearly popular. Menu is quite extensive, with well described dishes, and staff are happy to help and advise. Desert was much more limited, with many of the options list on the menu not available - didn't bother me too much as I don't tend to go for desert in this sort of restaurant, but worth being aware of. Quality of the food was excellent - good size proportions very well cooked and presented.

Service is very good! Food is amazing and so are the mocktails/cocktails.

Great food good atmosphere would definitely go back again.

First time trying tonight food and staff were amazing we will defo be back thank you 😃😃

great food really enjoyed it and great drinks.

Sorry this is more like a school canteen not a very nice place to relax with a nice meal, we didn’t even finish our meal as it was that full of unruly kids

Beautiful place Beautiful food Beautiful people Highly recommended

Absolutely spot on. Poppadoms - very fresh and crispy 👌 Mixed tikka starter - melted in my mouth ❤️ Chicken tikka chilli masala - delicious

Always good food a excellent service

First impressions - very small car park Not disabled friendly at all As we walked in was gorgeous Had to wait around 45 mins for a table even though we booked Service wasn’t the best but it was busy Took around 1 hour 30 for our mains to arrive , by the time it arrived we wasn’t hungry But we ate what we could , if you don’t mind waiting forever for your food id definitely return as it is nice once you get it , but the service is horrendous we wasn’t told or aware of the wait time Took 25 min from ordering just to get our drinks Then starters and mains came together around 1 hour 30 later Would I return ? Yeah if wait time wasn’t as long as it was as the prices and food is nice

Average food with nice staff and environment.

Takeaway was fine will try again.

Celebrated son’s 21st birthday. Absolutely beautiful place food and cocktails are amazing.Staff was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed, special thanks to Bruce who looked after us all night.

Very good Indian food with excellent service.

Lovely place. Food was excellent. The team who looked after our party of nine were outstanding. Will 100% visit again, and highly recommend.

Really enjoyed the food. The lamb biriyani was amazing. My server at table 13 tonight, I didn’t get his name I’m sorry but what a genuine guy and knows how to make the experience and food just how I liked it. I’ll be back soon. Thank you brother. Mike from the floor store across the way 🙏🏽

Amazing Restaurant and the food is outstanding, we have deliveries most of the time and the service is spot on! Thanks Guys

Food was amazing onion bajhi best I have had. Service was really good nothing is to much trouble.

Boxing day. There was a singer on from about 7.00 pm and it was loud and impossible to talk with others at table

Great food. Great atmosphere. It was Christmas Eve and although it was busy we were served quite quickly.

Went here to celebrate a friends birthday. Was really surprised at this place being so close to home, 1st time here and was very happy From the service of walking into leaving was amazing. The food was absolutely 💯 👌 Couldn't fault it. They cater to vegetarians, and their menu is halal.

We ordered takeaway from here for the first time this evening for New Year! Absolutely amazing food! Arrived piping hot and every dish was delicious! Can’t wait to order again and maybe bring the extended family to come to the restaurant one day. Thank you.

30th birthday for 30 was lovely highly recommend

Best curry house, clean, lovely decor, food is always spot on and staff are great!

Really nice food with attentive staff, highly recommended and will be back

The only Indian I order / eat at! Their korma is the best I ever had and my partner only ever orders the chicken chilli masala! Always cooked perfectly! The garlic chicken starter is always a must! Last minute Christmas Day order, went in and despite being as busy as they are they were happy to accommodate us! Lovely staff, friendly and always have time for you despite being rushed off their feet! Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic food,, amazing Indian food at reasonable prices, with large portions you will struggle to finish, just ask for a doggy box to take away any un-eaten food ,as food just too good to be left behind.

Was a wonderful experience food was excellent and staff are amazing

Had poppadoms nice and light and not greasy with a tongue tantalising mango slightly spiced chutney ..lamb chops really succulent and tasty and charred...king prawns that melt in your mouth with an amazing tandori flavour sauce juice ...fluffy and light onion rice accompanied by the chicken tikka machini that was nice and creamy with a perfect amount of up spice of which we asked for and they delivered perfectly.naan bread was perfectly charred as asked for .this is the first time in ages where every bit of food tasted was taste bud love ..we will definitely be going there again this time to sit in . Jacko

Been here a few times now. My 60th birthday today and we were well looked after by friendly staff. Excellent food, lovely restaurant, decent music and clean loos !!! Highly recommended 🥰

Mj night was absolutely fantastic and on a works do too ...☆☆☆☆☆☆

Lovely staff lovely food.food served very quickly when ordered lovely surroundings .lovely place to dine and to celebrate special occasions.

Went for my wife's birthday, with eight people. Fantastic food and superb service

Had a great meal with the family as always. Great service and staff are really customer focused. The management are fantastic and will accommodate your needs. Parking on site. You can book a table on line or call the restaurant. Booking is recommended. Can get extremely busy.

Had a fabulous meal tonight. Often get a take away from there but visited tonight. Could not fault iit good and service all superb would highly recommend a visit. We will be back

My best friend had "the best mixed grill" of his life. Wonderful time with friends

Nice restaurant. The food is top quality and the staff are very friendly. It was our first visit tonight and we will definitely return.

Really good food, great service! Best in the area by a country mile!

I am a regular customer mainly take away orders but i have dined in on a few occassions and the restaurant is amazing and the food 5 star.

Lovely food, lovely decor, attentive service. Only slight criticism- we had said it was one of our parties birthday. Usually this has some acknowledgement but there was none. Will return for the quality of food.

Really nice restaurant with great decor, staff were very polite and humorous and made everyone very welcome...thank you 😀

Great night, great service, great food, all round nice ambience

Just ok 👍 average, food just average the best part was the onion bhaji, tandoori half chicken very salty little disappointed had heard good stuff maybe expectations where set a little high, atmosphere good to start and then as the room got busier the noise was overwhelming couldn't hear the person across the table so conversation was impossible the staff where too attentive every waiter wanted to wait on us got a little bit annoying that the staff kept asking if we needed anything and tried to take our order three times good choice of drinks mocktails some good some terrible

Excellent Indian restaurant, we go here at least once every week and get the best possible service and top quality food everytime. Thankyou to all the staff, see you again soon.

Not bad food, service was good very attentive. Especially the young lad with glasses 🥂 👓

The wife and I had a child free night, so we decided to go here. The food was excellent but unfortunately the customer service needs some work. Staff (not all staff) are abrupt and pretty rude. We won't be returning in a hurry. Didn't hear them say please or thank you once.

Had a meal for 2 here on Saturday night. Very busy but we were sat after a short wait. Waiting staff are on the ball and very attentive. Food was good, nan breads could be larger I think as could the rice portions but the quality was spot on.

Nice food, bit of a wait after our starter so wasn’t very hungry by the time it had come out, would go again as the food is nice maybe through the week however, Bruce the server was excellent great customer service such a talkative friendly young man!

What a fantastic place! Beautiful decor, friendly and attentive staff and the food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be visiting again

We attended as a party of 18 for my sisters birthday , all for the first time . We were blown away by the friendly reception we received, nothing was too much trouble for the staff ! The food was amazing , reasonably priced and plenty of it . We will definitely return and thank you for a wonderful evening , my sister felt very special on her special .

1st visit went well. Staff were nice. Good menu. Food was well presented and full of flavour. I'd definitely recommend 👌🏻

One of the best curries I've had. Great service too. I had a couple of requests and everything was as I asked!

We are regulars at the purple olive as the food is ALWAYS fresh and tasty! The restaurant is clean and has a good atmosphere The staff are fantastic and go our of their way for you!

Fantastic meal every time, service is amazing and you feel like you have 5* service, we would definatly recommend.

Enjoyed our meal out here. The food was really nice It was very nice inside as well

I had a brilliant time the food was amazing and all staff was great especially Jay really went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful time, Jays customer service skills were brilliant!!!

Love going here with my friend for a curry night out

The food is very good plenty of it.our problem is you get poppadoms. Before you have finished they are shoving the starter at you then the same with the main meal. We asked them to take them back until we were ready. We have been...

Really nice food and staff. Great all round.

A curry house with a fine dining appeal. Beautifully presented with relaxing ambience and A1 service. Food is exceptional. Definitely recommend

Lovely decorations in. There are plenty of places to sit and have a drink before the meal, i.e., the table is ready .in the menu, there is a section on bbq meals, i.e., raw meats in marinades that will be delivered or picked up. So if you're doing a bbq. 2 bars, one at the entrance of the place and one inside the restaurant, erea .wide range of drinks from larger to wine to cocktails 🍸

Long wait between meals on Saturday night great food great staff great price

Visited for the first time today. Food was perfect, really enjoyable, lovely decor, and friendly staff. Will definitely be returning.

Perfect, think I might have a new favourite restaurant

Amazing food, staff great can't wait to go again!

Six of us went for a meal last night and it was a bad experience. The service was as bad as could be. Our starters arrived as expected but when it came to our main course we waited over an hour and had to ask...

Excellent food and very prompt pleasant service. Certainly recommend. Our third visit and always had brilliant cuisine and service.

Have just had the most amazing meal tonight (25th May) All freshly cooked and delicious. The staff were wonderful and attentive. It was our first time here but will definitely be going back x

We had a lovely client getting together amazing food

Its ok here, food good, prices reasonable, atmosphere weird - just not overly friendly and we were in/out in 45 mins so not relaxing. 3rd visit and likely wont bother again, we like Vevas and Candolim much more

First time of visiting since it changed from the Ocean Treasure, which is quite a while. The transformation is fantastic and fresh. It was very busy on our visit on a Saturday evening but the service and food was spot on. We will be back again soon.

This place is excellent. Great food and great service the decor is lovely

Absolutely amazing restaurant service food and decor outstanding. We have visited tonight with family of four. The price was so cheap cant wait to visit again. Big thankyou x
