Red Rose in Wokingham

We had a takeaway from here last night and it was amazing. Really tasty, good size portions. We have dairy allergies in the family and the man at the restaurant helped us to choose suitable dishes.

I'm a relatively new customer to these guys as I often order a curry for myself as my better half prefers a pizza or something different, and the 15quid minimum charge policy for a delivery is perfect for me. The food always arrives on time, is always hot, and I just had the balti madras, and it was quite possibly the best curry I have ever eaten. I'm 46 years old and have eaten a lot of curries in my lifetime aswell! Thank you very much, ill be spreading the news to Friends and family!!

Lovely food and friendly atmosphere

Had to call 15 mins after advertised delivery time to chase - told the food was yet to leave. Curry is so sweet - like a pudding. £3 for a naan… Wife’s favourite ever so looks like we’ll be back though.

As a brown person - any curry not made by my mother or possibly my aunt is unlikely to be perfect. However the curries here are not remotely authentic and are anglicised beyond belief. My butter chicken was so sweet(!) - almost like custard. For foodies or anyone brown - this place is to be avoided sadly.

Food was delivered at the requested time but it was completely cold and not enjoyable to eat.

Food was good. Service was average. Very noisy. Wouldn’t return unless I was with a bigger group.

Excellent food, friendly service

It has no alcohol license so have to bring your own. But great food, party of 8 and everyone commented on how good it was.

We have been dining here for years and have never left a review the food is the best in Reading and the staff are very attentive A+++

Looking forward to a night out for the first time in a while and the waiter offered me a soft drink, I then said can I have the wine menu? The reply was you can bring your own drink if you want, "How are you supposed to keep a few cans of beer cold while you are eating your food?". For some people this would be ok, but for me I decided to leave and wont be going back.

I had a Karachi it was way hotter than normal, and the two chicken tikkas over spicy , from are experience over the years they should be mild not hot, I will think twice next time wather to order again .Maxine .

Went as a large group and the food was excellent. Service was great and very friendly staff.

Lovely front of house, and very accommodating but our food was heavily over-salted to the point that we couldn't really eat it. Update. Food was very good this time! Another update: the curries were really disappointing. Lamb was so overcooked, we could barely cut through it. Sorry, that was a bad meal.

Really enjoyable meal. Went in on a whim last minute and we were greeted and accommodated. Food was easily some of the best I’ve ever eaten. Can’t recommend highly enough!

Visited with my wife on 13/05/2023 I've been here many times and usually love the food. Unfortunately this time I was very disappointed, the Karahi Lamb I had was tasteless and bitter. The garlic naan and beer were the best part of the meal. Was the first time I haven't finished a curry. Sorry to have to post a negative review.

Great food! Great atmosphere! Amazing service. Will be back every month

Popped in for a quick meal, the food and especially the service was outstanding.

We had a lovely meal, food was amazing but we feel the front of house let them down, feel like we got told off for bringing a soft drink, we were told “ he would let us off this time”! We were a party of 8 and one person bought a soft drink so in our opinion it was unacceptable. Like I said we can’t fault the food just a shame about the young guy on front of house.

Red Rose have never failed to impress with their curries.

Has the best Indian food in years. We all ordered very different dishes and all were superb. The service was excellent too, really friendly. I wish I lived nearer to the restaurant as I would love to go again.

Fabulous food served by fabulous staff

I booked a table for 4 of us for 27th December. We arrived to find the restaurant empty but well attended by waiters. Some background on myself & other family members. We all are regular BIR (British Indian Restaurant) visitors & believe we are experienced judges as to what’s good or bad. I can honestly say the meal we had on the 27th was the best Indian (or more accurately Bangladeshi) meal I’ve ever had the privilege of enjoying. At the age of 70, surely this is a strong statement! Every dish we had was cooked to perfection: Chicken Tikka, Chicken Dopiaza, Tarka Dhal, Veg Curry, Aloo Gobi, Bombay Aloo, Sag Paneer, Mushroom Bhargi, Special Fried Rice, Garlic Naan. The waiters were very attentive. Brought our own bottle of wine which they placed into an ice bucket for us with a large glass full of extra ice, without asking. Thank you guys for making our family get together such a great experience. You deserve the full 5*s!

One of a very few restaurants open for a Monday lunchtime curry. Superb food, loads of meat & not just sauce. Staff were sooo attentive & professional. We brought our own beers, so they provided opener, glasses & took empties away. We shall return ASAP

Went last night friendly staff ,overall food lovely rice a little clumpy and plain microwaved? And massala taste a little like bolognaise otherwise naan lovely and lamb passanda over all really enjoyed nice enviroment until main criticism is football was on staff gathered front of hse round a phone watching with volume on which sort of took away going to a restaurant could of gone to pub or stayed home for football sounds rather then pay for nice meal out Will go back just maybe not when sports on 😊

Good curry. Bring your own booze

Beautiful currys, can't wait to go back, if we can get a babysitter 😂

Rude owner needs to learn how to speak to people.

Simply bad food. Ingredients out of cans, not cooked to perfection. Popadoms cooked with smelly oil. We were charged for pickle tray even though we did not ask for it and barely used it. Stuffed parantha was horrible.

Delicious food and great service.

Best curry ever! Keep up the good work gys!

Good food, good service and quick.

Fantastic meal. Brilliant selection. Chicken madras was a huge portion and of a really good quality. Bring your own alcohol was a great perk here. Lovely staff and very Nice interior too. One of the best curries in Reading.

Fabulous meal but the non alcoholic drinks are quite expensive. Take your own alcohol.

We had an excellent dinner here. The service was attentive, the menu had variety and the food was delicious. It is worth knowing in advance that there is no alcohol license but you can take your own and they provide glasses and bottle openers etc. Looking forward to going again soon.

Fabulous tasty meal. Will be back!

Excellent meal here tonight i had Peshwari Lamb cooked really well, service was good and they made you welcome, lots of choice on the menu. 10/10

We had a lovely meal here a year ago, and when we went back yesterday it was just as good. Generous portions, very reasonable prices. Lamb pasanda was delicious. Bright, attractive decor, friendly efficient staff, spotlessly clean cloakrooms. Highly recommended. Just remember - they don't have a licence, so you must bring your own alcoholic drink. I'm not a lager connoisseur, and tried the zero-alcohol Stella Artois. Eminently drinkable, and half the price of the "real" thing. We'll be back !

Excellent food and perfect service!! Worth being aware it's bring your own alcohol, since covid, but a good selection of non alcoholic beers available.

The meal was beautifully cooked. Service was attentive but not intrusive. An interesting menu with some unusual dishes. The lamb dishes were the best we've ever eaten in a moderately priced restaurant. Bring your own alcoholic drinks.

Good food, friendly staff and very clean.

The service was excellent and the food was very good. No alcohol sold here.

Wow! Came for lunch with friends, was absolutely beautiful, when others say there are generous portions they aren't kidding! The bhajis are light and crisp, the chicken tikka starter is on another level of flavour. We also had the chicken murgh makhani, buttery, flavoursome sauce and easily enough between two people. Keema naan can be a bit hit and miss in other establishments, not here, it was stuffed with lamb and flavour. All together, £20 a head and we are all pleasantly stuffed. You've definitely found 6 new customers here. Very attentive staff and clean and modern. Couldn't do enough for us all. Can't wait to visit again.

Just had the worst food delivery customer experience of my life with the owner 'Minaz'. I've been a customer since 1997 and this was my favourite Indian restaurant. I will never order from here again, Minaz's attitude is horrible especially given the attitude was his mistake personally.

Good food and plenty of it. Very good attentive service too. Taking your own drink is a very good idea.

I ordered lamb curry its just half tones of onions and Nan bread just dough even they didn't opening dough and ader side is born

I bought lamb curry its just half tones of onions there is no tes od curry and i bought nan bread on side is born on side its just dough. Dont waste money.

With out a doubt the best Indian restaurant for miles. We’ve been coming here since it opened. The food and the staff are both second to none! You need to take your own alcohol but for people on a budget this makes more affordable.

Excellent meal. Unfortunately this looks like another local restaurant that has been unable to afford the high price of an alcohol licence, so you have to bring your own.

Good food. Friendly and helpful staff.

Great food and a brilliant service. Will definitely be booking a table in a regular basis 👍🏽

Service poor and food was bland

What a curry, I’ve been eating dhansak since young thanks to my mum and dad and the last few dhansaks from red rose are 10/10 absolutely banging. Thanks Red rose and you’re chef is top draw.

Rude, rude, rude! Failed to deliver our food.

Everytime I go the service and food is outstanding would recommend to any 1 and they do the best ever chicken tikka massala iv ever had.

Red Rose chicken is super RED in colour and poor in taste. Naan and Roti Bread is as thick as your cushion and rubber in taste..half baked Very Poor quality of takeaway food fated 21 May,2021 evening. Never ever again going to order any food from here!

Tasty meal and arrived at slot chosen, could have been hotter but great value for money and definitely worth a re visit

Have been going here for years. We're well known, loyal customers. We've made a point of supporting this business throughout the coronavirus crisis. Tonight we ordered a take away. With poppadoms...these came with no accompanying dips. We rang a couple of minutes before they closed to be told that the chef had gone home so we couldn't collect, I'm assuming pre made dips need a qualified chef to pop into a container. Won't be going back.

Just finished eating my lamb dansak and peshwari nan... it's the yummiest I've had. Food is always delicious and delivered on time. If you're around the area, just go for it. I haven't had a bad experience. Plus the staff are very friendly!

Food was very tasty and fresh. Nice ambiance and good customer service. I also ordered for delivery a week after eating in the restaurant, and even though I ordered close to their closing time, they still went out of their way to deliver our food. Again, food was very nice and still hot when it was delivered. If you are looking a nice restaurant in Woodley, I would recommend Red rose. A+++++

Great meal. Night before tier 4 imposed. So busy. Great flavours and quality.

We managed to get a booking in on the last day before the second lockdown and had a really lovely evening. The staff are helpful and friendly. The food is delicious and the atmosphere of the restaurant is nice.

Ordered Take Away from Red Rose and picked it up. The flavour was incredible! Such a Good Curry!

By far the best Indian Restaurant in Reading. Really good meal and service was excellent. No complaints, great night and many thanks to the guys 👍

excellent meal best nan bread in ages

Really good food, good friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back

Ordered online at 6.55pm for three meals, website indicated a delivery estimated time of 7.36pm. Whilst I am sensible enough to know that on a Saturday night this was only an estimate, I did however expect the food before 9.05 pm. Then when arrived only one of the three Pilau Rice was included. Having told Red Rose the extra two arrived at 9.36 pm. No apology, no suggestion that the bill would be reduced, no nothing. That is the last time I will be using Red Rose

Enjoyed our first visit tonight. Great food :) Release Radio crew.

visité amigos y ordené llevar. Ordenado más temprano en el día por los anfitriones después de que todos habíamos dado nuestras opciones el día anterior. El anfitrión recibió una llamada telefónica cuando regresó para decir que no habían puesto todo el arroz. Regresó y le dieron arroz extra. Comí entrantes - salsas con 2 pappadoms cada una - ponga más pappadoms de lo solicitado. Llegó a los platos principales, el mío no estaba allí. Sonó el restaurante que accedió a enviarlo. Finalmente llegó 40 minutos después cuando todos los demás habían terminado. (Estábamos a 5 minutos). Pan naan ahora frío como mi arroz.Parecía muy desorganizado. La comida estaba bien, pero mejor.

Very tasty meal i chose Achari Lamb , i think that is how it's spelt staff good service good pleased with it all

Usually good food, but today waited for 1hr 45min for over £50 of cold food!! Website quoted 45 mins. Was advised after an hour it would be another 10-15 mins. Was told website was wrong and many other people had also complained. Not my problem. Will not use again, as not told the truth. Driver said restaurant was busy. And...........?

Haven't been here for a while so was pleasantly surprised how good the food was. Very tasty. Great customer service.

I don't normally review the restaurant unless I really enjoy it. For Indian, Red Rose is the best in Reading and probably in Berkshire too since I have tried pretty much every place in the whole Berkshire. Either eat in or take away, always deliver the quality food. Some restaurants are not good with take away but this one makes no difference. However there is a language barrier and you do need to make it clear if you are ordering on the phone. Best to order it online. The most important thing is food is delicious. Restaurant setting and atmosphere is also great, welcome, attentive staff and good size portion at reasonable price. I have been there so many times and never been let down. I would happily recommend this place.

A fantastic birthday meal, service was fantastic from start to finish and the food was amazing too. We have had a fantastic time. The best place in Woodley for curries and the best service ever.

Consistently good food. Love it.

This restaurant has always been impeccably clean and the staff exemplary. I'm a'Sheilding' customer, made to feel as welcome as I always have been.

Hice un pedido por teléfono ya que el sitio web no me dejaba hacerlo. Me dijeron que el pedido estaría listo en 40 minutos. Apareció para recoger a la hora indicada y le dijeron que serían unos minutos. 20 minutos más tarde cuando le pregunté cuánto tiempo más se aconsejaba unos minutos. Dos minutos más tarde se volvió a preguntar mi nombre. Parece suceder todo el tiempo. Un tiempo de espera total de 45 minutos. La comida era normal en el mejor de los casos.

Excellent food excellent service

Great food, excellent service with a smile and ambiance to match it. Ordered some take away too and sure enough they don't do things in halfs. Had a lovely time. Thank you once again.

As always a great Indian. All taking care in these Covid times. Quiet tonight on first allowed opening but tasty and delicious.

Wonderful and delicious food. I'd definitely go again :)

Been here so many times but sadly it’s takeaways only at the moment, which as still as good but without the great atmosphere and friendly staff. Ashrad looks after us like kings!!! Can’t wait to get back. Korma and vindaloooo are just the best!!

Food ok but the service not. Didn't like the waiters attitude who's work seemed to be his punishment at that time.

Excellent food, and always served with a smile! Would recommend it as the best curry restaurant in Reading. Love going for a couples date night, with friends or if we take our son (they open at 6pm) they are very accommodating and enjoy seeing him.

Banging curry beer and the curry’s consistently good too

Lovely food, friendly service. Looking to go back soon.

Great food, service and prices. Delicious!

Best Indian around. Food great, staff friendly and helpful.

Poor. Ordered online in which it stated the delivery time was 45 mins. It actually took an hour and 45mins. Some items were missing, The food was cold but was so hungry after waited so long for it to arrive. Subsequently we are both now ill with food poisoning.

Food was nice. Service not good enough. I do appreciate we were a large party however. One waiter stank of cigarette smoke which was really unpleasant when he was leaning over you to put your food on the table... Sorry.

1. We booked table through online - Restaurant confirmed booking to my mobile and later they called me and said it was system error & they don't have any tables for that day. 2. We accepted it and ordered all Veg menu on 12th Oct and informed we will come & collect. 3. When we received the order and came back home, my son tried one Samosa & said there is no vegetable in this Samosa. They have given Keema Samosa instead of Veg. We were extremely disappointed with delivery - I never thought they will just send an order without even checking it appropriately. I will personally never go to this place again and neither will recommend my friends. I will advise Veg. or Vegans to avoid this restaurant.

Excellent customer service; good quality food and reasonable prices. I will return soon Highly recommend Thank you Red Rose

loveee this place food is so good !

Returned after a few months to see if it had improved but unfortunately was still not impressed. Food quite bland. Hot towels given to wipe your hands smelt disgusting. Toilets not clean. There are a lot of better Indian restaurants in the area.

Great food.. Book a seat to make sure... Takeaway too

We had a nice meal in the Red Rose. Service is good. The popadoms and chutneys are very good. I had chicken rezala which was really nice. We also had chicken tikka masala and lamb archar. The food was lovely (as always).

Good curry house, friendly staff and reasonably priced.

We are frequent visitors. Staff are fabulous. The food's delicious and the decor and atmosphere are perfect for a romantic meal

Después de recolectar comida para llevar y verificar con el miembro del personal que toda mi orden estaba allí, llegamos a casa para encontrar la orden incorrecta. Cuando llamamos para que esto se rectificara, nos ofrecieron comida gratis para el siguiente pedido. ¡No habrá una próxima vez ya que el curry es demasiado caro y no es muy bueno!
