The food I recently ordered from Red Chilli's was really good.The rice was nice and pleasant, and the chicken biriyani was delicious.Redchillis is something I do suggest.

Really enjoyed the food, masala dosa and accompaniments was lovely. The chef specials winglets was exceptional. Service was great and the staff even catered for our little one and kept him entertained too. Some quiet background music would help with the atmosphere but it was early evening so must get more vibrant as it gets busier.

We had a good time at this restaurant with family and friends. We had a variety of south indian(kerala style) food. The chef special puliyinji chicken is a must try. The porotta, briyani is also good.

Stuck in Southend area on a Saturday evening waiting to collect daughter from a birthday dinner and looking for something to eat. Happened across Red Chilliezs and what a find. Great to have a proper South Indian meal rather than the usual English/Bangladeshi curry. Table for one and I couldn’t have felt more welcome. Delicious.

Had the most beautiful time celebrating Onam at Red Chilliezs a few months ago. You welcomed us like family and we’re so grateful. We will be back time and time again and next Onam too:) thank you very much. Food was the most delicious thing I’ve ever tasted. What a gift :)

We wanted to go there for a while. Service was good hence rated 5 star however it could be the spices were used that we are not used to, we didn't like the taste, it felt bitter and we are disappointed. the only good this was the Paratha. We felt it was pretty expensive too.

I must say that I've rarely been so satisfied by a South Indian restaurant here in UK. South Indian restaurants seem to be popping up everywhere these days, and being a fan of South Indian cuisine, particularly Kerala food, I make it a point to visit the most of them. However, no one has captured the real flavor quite like this restaurant. I recently attended an Ona Sadhya at a Malayali association function, where this restaurant provided meals. I was honestly impressed by the quality of the cuisine; it felt exactly like having an Ona Sadhya at home in Kerala. I may not know who you are or where you're from, but this is now my first pick for organizing a party. Kudos to the management!

The owner and staff made a birthday celebration one to remember. The vegetarian selection was very tastey; the relatively small variety ensures the items are freshly prepared - none of the half prepared menus that may be found elsewhere or an apparently huge selection where most use the same base sauce. The staff were courteous and very accommodating to our needs. Off-menu variations were craeated at our request. Thank you to the management and staff of ReChilliezs. We hope to come again, again!

Delicious food. Had thalassery chicken biriyani and mango lussy. Biriyani rice is well cooked with enough masala, served with poppadom, raita and pickle.chicken pieces are fried enough. Mango lussy is fantastic, not thick with cardamom flavour. Not many rice varieties like dum biryani or fried rice etc . Good service from the owner and the staff. Affordable restaurant. Provides alcohol, wine etc. The menu is good looking and arranged well.

Had to wait for our food once ordered, but we got in late and the wait was worth it. Veg Aviyal tasted so good, it was tough deciphering exactly what they were. The Lamb Piralan was tender and spiced perfectly. The parothas were fluffy and soft. The Fish Pepper Salt was crisp and full of flavour.

My first visit - but not my last... pictured are the deliciously light, non-greasy, tasty onion bhajis - to follow, I had coriander chicken, lemon rice and porotta... I dove straight in and was so delighted with my choices that I forgot to take a photo... we had a spinach and coconut dish to accompany it that paired well with my chicken, everything felt home-cooked fresh to order... I couldn't fault it and would highly recommend... was delighted to see carrot halwa on the dessert menu but was too full to try it this time round... it's a must next time as I have a feeling it won't disappoint!!

Red Chilliezs is a special restaurant, amazing food and incredible people.

They also were very accommodating with allergies within the party and made individual dishes to make sure everyone was well catered for. We’re so happy that Red Chilliezs were a part of our day, and will keep going back to relive all of those amazing dishes! Thank you.

Chose this place for a date, and the food was excellent. When ordering, we were not rushed and questions about the menu were explained in a friendly and enthusiastic manner. The dishes were tailored in terms of chilli level, from a scale of 1-10, I went with the 10, and it didn't disappoint. It was packing a lot of quality heat. Every item we ordered was of high quality. The masala chai was lovely. Looking forward to my next visit and ordering a 12/10 chilli dish 😅- though I may order it with some ice cream 😀. An excellent find, highly recommended!

My husband loves Indian food, I have become a bit bored of it all. Went out under sufferance and because it was a different menu. I had the gobi cauliflower to start which is lovely, then I had the chicken biryani with the paratha, it is the best biryani I have ever had and the best bread, it had spice and so much flavour and was also really light. Absolutely delicious and I will definitely return again. The only thing that would make it better would be linen napkins rather than paper.

What a delicious find. The food here is 10/10. Visiting family for Christmas we were looking for an authentic South Indian meal as a break from the leftovers and are glad that we did. We were welcomed with handshakes and brought into Red Chilliezs by the owner who was very helpful and suggested dishes he thought we would like. We ordered poppadoms and chutneys, 2 starters, 3 mains and two sides which was enough for the three of us. The Lamb Dosa was particularly good as was the Coriander Chicken. My only suggestion for an improvement would be to dim / soften the lighting which was a little too bright and white - would be better to have warmer yellow lightbulbs to improve the ambiance.

Used to be very good but has gone majorly downhill. Ordered 3 different dishes for 35 to take away and received 3 watered down things that all looked and tasted exactly the same, and to add insult to injury, the tiny plastic containers were only about half full of the liquidy slop. Flavourless as well. Don't recommend and take your money to Yak and Yeti. Down the road and WAY BETTER FOOD AND VALUE.

This is a very expensive Resturant in comparison to other Indian restaurants in the area. Grandma chicken curry Coriander Chicken Aloo Gobi This small order was close to £40 and apart from the aloo gobi, the portion of the other dishes were small.

We are so lucky to have this level of Keralan cuisine available in Southend. Every flavour and spice tastes fresh and clear in this food, you can taste the pride and care taken in preparing every dish we have tried so far. There is a good variety of dishes on the menu to explore. Our favourites are the dosas of course, the gobi (cauliflower) 65, the kappa (tapioca), perfect spirally paratha and all of the fish dishes. This is not a boring Anglo-indian curry house, this is a slice of proper regional South Indian cuisine which is so much lighter with refined distinct flavours, yet very satisfying.

Saw the reviews on this fish and chip shop so thought I would try it based on the top reviews, the food was very disappointing the chips were soggy not even crispy and the fish was so oily and completely soggy also when should be nice golden crispy the only thing that was nice was the curry sauce. Won’t be trying this place again was terrible.

Took over an hour to arrive even though it’s 10 min down the road, microwaved Mac and cheese was stuck together chewy and cold, chips were stale, burger was decent but bun was soggy. Ordered a drink didn’t arrive. My order came to £40 and didn’t want to give a small freebie. Bad experience. Go to an authentic Jamaican.
