Rose of India in Breckland

We recently ordered takeout from Rose of India, hoping for a delicious Indian meal, but sadly, it was a complete disappointment. The flavors were far from what we expected, and overall, the experience was very underwhelming. We ordered the prawn kurma, which ended up being the biggest letdown. The dish had an overwhelmingly sweet flavor that tasted completely artificial. It was so off-putting that we could barely eat it. The sweetness overpowered everything, making it impossible to enjoy the prawns or any of the other spices that should have been in the dish. We also tried the chicken Malayan, but unfortunately, it didn't fare much better. The flavors were bland and lacked the richness that we usually associate with Indian cuisine. We won’t order from this restaurant again.

We ordered a takeout and, as I'm pescie, I hadn't had any experience of the lamb. The starter was great but the main course, the lamb pasanda, was awful - the lamb was chewy, tough and fatty - my friend spat it out the first three times then wouldn't touch and can't say I blame her. Prawn stuff was good but very sub par re the lamb. Disappointing, as the owner is a friend of a friend and I was looking forward to trying them, but we used Shimla when I lived in Wymondham so will stick with them in future.

I took my family to this restaurant to celebrate my birthday, we all enjoyed our meals. Healthy portions of freshly cooked food. The staff were very attentive. This restaurant is easily as good if not better than a lot of the ones that I have dined in and around Brick Lane , East London. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner , who is a genuine guy with sincere customer focus being a priority. Give this place a try , you won’t be disappointed.😎

Just had a takeaway delivered. Lamb Jalfrezi and Lamb Buhari etc. The lamb was so tender and the flavours amazing. We are so lucky to have this restaurant in Attleborough. Hazel and Trevor

Excellent food and staff were brilliant!

Take out at a bargain price for such quality

Great food, great service and always busy which can only mean thing, people definitely like eating here. Raj and his team really do go the extra mile to make sure their customers are happy. 👏🏼

Fantastic food and the team were extremely polite and helpful

Really excellent food for our 2 vegetarian and 2 vegan party (but loads of choice for meaties too!) Try out the Balti Sabjee when you get a chance!

Booked a take away for 10 at short notice on a Sunday. Very friendly, helpful staff. Food great value and tasted fab. Highly recommend

Recently visited for a 21st birthday celebration meal. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great service even though the restaurant was busy and the food was very good, fresh and arrived in reasonable time considering how busy they were. They had options for two of our party who are vegans. On learning this was a birthday celebration the staff brought a birthday cake with candles and sang happy birthday at the table which was unexpected and, I thought, a really nice gesture. Will definitely be visiting again soon and can recommend the food to any lovers of Indian food.

Absolutely amazing place! The staff are lovely and talkative, they were very flexible with the meals and they even brought my brother in law a cake for his birthday! Will definitely be going back

Favourite place. Great food, friendly staff, and fantastic prices. Can park on the side of the road too.

A fantastic meal with the family, delicious food served by friendly welcoming staff. We will be back!

Food here is amazing, staff are friendly and I would definitely recommend coming here

Best night out great food great company

As per usual. Fantastic staff, very attentive. Great food, great price. Cannot fault it

Ordered over the phone and the person taking the order was helpful in describing the dishes we weren't familiar with. Both curries were delicious, onion bahjias tasty, good portion sizes and great value for money. Topped off by being delivered by a friendly, helpful chap, highly recommend we will definitely order again from here, and make sure we have cash

We had a family meal for our daughters 16th birthday. Lovely food, great service. Waiter's Jamil and Jaman was amazing. Restaurant owner Raj was absolutely brilliant. Highly recommend.

Often order takeaways. Food always comes hot and is very nice, delivery arrives usually without the hour from where I live which is about 4 miles away. Prices are decent. The lamb Rogan Josh is really good.

Really friendly and helpful staff, amazing food definitely recommend

Amazing service & food. Highly recommend! Thank you so much!

Fantastic meal! Great service, attentive staff team, busy busy busy on Saturday evening when we visited - a great sign and obviously doing a roaring trade which is brilliant to see. Thank you for giving us a table at such short notice, we thoroughly enjoyed your food, service, atmosphere and, your restaurant. We shall pop back soon Regards, Douglas Valentine

Another top night for boys night (me and my son) food was excellent, service was spot on. Although my son couldn't eat a lot he loved what what he ate.

An excellent midweek meal,very tasty and all round excellent.thankyou.

I visited with my friends on Thursday evening. We booked in advance and was very busy for Thursday, which shows just how good the restaurant is. Staff showed us to our table and gave us time to look through the menu and chat. We had poppadoms to start. I had Lamb balti, which came with a plain naan bread. This was just incredible. Left me very full. I also ordered mushroom rice that went with this dish. I also had a diet coke to drink all coming to £21. Will definitely be back. Parking on the road or in the small car park.

Avoid, avoid, avoid Horrific experience from start to finish. It was recommended by a friend as a place for a family meal so thought it would be ok but I was extremely disappointed. The staff were very forceful in bringing out all the dishes and didn't actively listen to the food orders so missed out items. They kept staring at our table all evening and felt they wanted to get rid of us. I ordered a Tandoori chicken but it came out dry and looking like KFC chicken wings? They didn't think about portion sizes either and seemed chaotic. Go to other restaurants in town. Maybe have stricter uniform policy for wearing long hair tied back if handling food. Terrible quality

Horrific experience. I booked this restaurant as it was recommended by a friend. However, I was really disappointed with the service and staff. It was meant to be for a family celebration meal but I found the service was very forceful, just couldn't wait to get rid of us. The food was also really cheap, dry and looked nothing like I ordered from the menu. I wanted to try out their Tandoori chicken but it came out like a KFC chicken wings? They don't do anything by the glass either so forced to pay for a bottle. Not worth visiting here. Go to the other restaurants in town!

The manager is so rude, didnt want to give us a table as we didnt book but the place was empty! I came from London to visit the local beach great yarmouth. I was with a couple friends and i promise you the food had no taste. It was so bland. Very unprofessional. Look at his reply for evidence. I wish i worked anywhere near the area

Best Indian restaurant in the area, the staff and owner were very helpful and friendly, the food has been excellent every time we have eaten in or had a takeaway

I always go for the traditional dishes; madras, dansak and saag. The takeaway did not disappoint, they use the finest ingredients. Thoroughly enjoyed by the family and my son reminded me to leave a review too :) Thank you

Delicious chicken Masala and Korma and the Nun bread.

Excellent food and wonderful service, will definitely come again! Very generous portion sizes. We were a big group but food arrived all together. Really lovely meal.

Always excellent. Best that we've been to. Will travel from anywhere for a meal. All the way from Derbyshire for a visit still the same excellent food and friendly service. Even remember our names after 3 years away.

Lamb chops were awful, didn’t look like chops at all, wasn’t done properly just sauce thrown over them, chicken tikka again was like tomato sauce, staff hovered round and made you feel you had to eat and leave quickly, informed 2 waiters but they just walked away, try another one

Indian food in East Anglia doesn't get better than this. Raj is a fantastic host. Highly recommended

Visited the restaurant as a treat by my son, but was disappointed with the butter chicken. It was served in a white coconut and butter sauce with what appears to be chicken slices. Not what we expected but the rest of the food was absolutely fine. Nice place, prompt service just avoid the butter chicken.

I have a pleasure to be at Rose of Indian in Attleborough Town. From the enviroment to a friendly staff and manager you can find at this place a warm welcome. The food is serve with all quality and safety. Even if you visit this place for a first time you can find a advice from the chef for better he find what feast will better suit you. From vegan to not spice and hot spice main courses, starters and appetisers you will delight with a single and unique taste of the Indian homemade food. Is definitely a place to back and totally recommended.

As always friendly atmosphere great service and excellent food 👌

Fantastic service fantastic atmosphere and fantastic food, highly recommend. Verry professional and hospitality was 10/10. Cheff was equally matched with the service team.

Super nice! Was my first experience of an Indian restaurant in Norfolk after moving here. The service was excellent, polite friendly staff and the food was absolutely delicious and priced very reasonably. I would whole heartedly recommend the restaurant and will definitely return 🙏☺️

So rude the staff! And three different dishes we order and all came out looking and tasting the same! The side dishes were like baby food blended would never return and first restaurant I’ve never tipped

The staff so rude! The food was bland and the side dish of cheese and spinach resembled blended baby food, first restaurant in my life I’ve never tipped

Great service and excellent quality service and food

Great food, amazing service and staff were very friendly and accommodating. My absolute favourite in Attleborough.

Really friendly service, GREAT food and reasonably priced. Honestly, possibly the best Indian restaurant I've been to.

Excellent night out, food was superb 👌

I've never had a bad meal there. Highly recommended. And excellent service for my birthday party. Thanks as always

I have visited the Rose many times over several years and have always had a great experience. Food is excellent and staff friendly and attentive. Always good advice on what to try and wether our group has been large or small it has always been an excellent experience. No hesitation in recommending the Rose.

I ate here tonight and the staff were really accommodating. They can make a lot of the vegetarian options vegan for you. The food was really lovely and very reasonably priced. If I lived locally I could see myself being a regular!

Greeted at the door and offered a drink on the house. Been to a few Indian takeaways in the area but this is a gem. What I ordered was amazing and hit the spot!

We were greeted at the door .We had lovely meal the service was great and the prices reasonable I would highly recommend a visit

We went there to celebrate my husbands birthday. We were greeted on arrival. We had a lovely meal at very reasonable price I would highly recommend a visit.

My sister got a takeaway delivered and when it came and she bit into the chicken it was still raw inside and bleeding. Absolutely disgusting, when she called them they said they were too busy and that she’d have to take it back for a £7 refund. Instead of refunding the whole lot she got delivered. Let’s be honest who would have eaten the rest after they see this? So her and my niece had to go without food because of their incompetence. No customer service skills what so ever!!! After seeing other replies to their trip advisor reviews, I’ll be waiting for a nasty, rude reply as that’s how they deal with things here!!!!

Awful food, the chicken I ate was completely raw. I rung them & they swore blind it was definitely cooked so made me feel like a liar, wouldnt send a driver out to collect the food as apparently was too busy, so my daughter and myself ended up going without as couldnt eat it....I went up there tonight and was refunded for the chicken only, even though we had to chuck the lot as put my daughter off hers too! No good will gesture nothing!! So lucky I haven't got food poisoning!!!!! Poor poor customer service, definitely put me off ordering again

Brilliant evening at the Rose of India. Love coming here and wish I could more often. The shob tikka starter is the best. I had the Bengal Murgh main which I hadn’t tried before. I can really recommend trying.

Very attentive staff and a lovely meal.

Slow service. All four different meals the sauce tasted the same just a different colour. Paying the bill their card reader refused 3 times .I was accused of having no money in my account. The 4th time it was accepted. I checked my on line account and was charged on all 4 times. They were not apologetic.

Bit of a last minute, late arrival. We got there at almost 10pm, fancied a bite to eat returning from evening out. They more than happily accommodated us with a table, and our food came out quickly and was delicious. In and out within the hour, no fuss. Been here a few times and the food is top notch, best Indian food in attleborough.

Quite simply the best around. Fantastic food, atmosphere and customer care.

Best Indian in Attleborough by far, the staff are very friendly and the service is second to none

All dishes were superb, however the Tarka dall was stunning. Will be going back again just for that!

There are limited Indians In Attleborough now and this is the worst one available. It has zero atmosphere and very rude staff, which is an understatement . The food was ok but would not return . Worst Indian in Norfolk for atmosphere and staff.

First time ive visited on my holiday from kent. Nice & friendly staff and food would love to go back again

I visited this place on 31st August from Hampshire while visiting my Son. The food was absoloutly delicious, best Indian we've had for a while. Portions were good, food was hot and service was excellent Raj was very lovely and friendly. Only problem I have is I wished I lived nearer lol. All three of us said how lovely and fresh the food was. A great experience.

I attended the Rose of India on Friday night with my wife and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The General Manager/Host was a man called "Raj" he's very sociable despite the busy environment and has a hand in everything. The service was prompt, the food was delicious & very generous in portions as well as being presented beautifully. My own personal wish would be for the Jalfrezi to be slightly hotter and the sauce to be more thick but understanding that Indian food is regional the chefs I have no qualms with my meal as it was delicious. I will absolutely be attending Rose of India again in the near future and will recommend here going forward. Keep up the good work.

Away. On business saw this And thought ok give it a go Busy here for a Wednesday so a good sign I think Ordered a rashmi kebab but lacked flavour Had the tandoori mixed grill but over cooked food Had a sag paneer which was the strangest one I’ve had it was too sweet and too cheesy not what I’m used too at all A tad disappointed but it was ok

Squeezed us in on a busy night. Food was on-point. Will definitely visit again.

Brilliant every time we go, the people are so nice. Came originally because they did a charity event and even about 8 years later and having to travel a lot further, we still use the rose for our indian. Thanks

We had takeaway here a few times, but first time going in for food. It was fantastic.. The staff were amazing, and they were so good with the boys. The food was just incredible

Lovely place, great service and couldn't fault the food. Will be back again soon 👍

Lovely meal in Nice surroundings

Excellent food, good value and very friendly. Thanks

Great curry, Raj’s choice was excellent. Just didn’t have enough room to eat it all 😝 excellent customer service by raj himself will definitely be coming back!

We visited tonight as requested by our 9yr old on his Birthday. A mid week (Tuesday) treat and we had a fabulous time! Warm and welcoming staff as always, food was exceptional and service was spot on. Our eldest is Vegan and the owner was...

Unfortunately we had quite a wait for our food, although when it arrived it was very tasty. The member of staff who came out at the end was extremely nice , but the staff who serve were a little short and abrupt. The staff member or perhaps owner was very kind to my step son, and saved the evening.

Had a takeaway from here tonight. Delivery was on time, no complaint there. We ordered 2 veggie dishes which were spot on and 2 chicken dishes. One korma one madras. In both the chicken was rock hard like it had been reheated. The madras was really watery. No taste or spice to it. Also ordered a keema naan which had no meat in at all. Only eat half of it and the rest went in the bin as it was not worth eating. Very poor response from the restaurant when we telephoned to tell them. Offered a discount when we order again which we will not be doing. Definitely one of the worst currys i have ever had, having been to many different curry houses all across the country. Cannot recommend highly enough that you do not order from here.

Friendly staff, food delicious as usual, definitely worth a visit.

I have used rose for delivery for about 5-6 weeks now. What a wonderful service and every curry is spot on. I like my curries a bit hotter and they have altered my orders to suit me. Bang on highly recommended 🍻👍👍

Haven’t been to the Rose of India for a number of years but always had a great experience dining in the restaurant….. tonight’s take away was superb !! So 5 stars from me ….. staff friendly also 👍🏼

Lovely food really friendly staff.

I measured approximately 10 tablespoons of curry in an £11.99 take away dish from here. This is after removing the three pieces of chicken. Thanks but no thanks.

I live very close to Attleborough and ever since the Rose of India opened I have enjoyed both takeaway meals and dining in the restaurant. The food is always fresh,well cooked and spiced and plenty of it. Having been a vegetarian for many years there is plenty of choice for me and they will make almost any choice on the menu into a veggie option if you ask them. The staff are particularly friendly and helpful and it's always a pleasure to go there. The Rose of India has always been a favourite and whilst the standards are this high I will continue to visit.

Really good food, really good service and good value too. Definitely recommend

This is a lovely welcoming restaurant. Great food Friendly and helpful staff Value for money. Will definitely come back

Food priced sensible is of course very important but also sensible portions are just as important. When I received a " barbie doll house " sized tea-plate of white rice that may well have just about filled up a 3 stone toddler, I was surprised....

Having had our first takeaway from here this evening we are definitely going back. All dishes were well spiced and flavoursome and portion sizes spot on. The only thing that let it down was the poppadom as it was a little burnt and not to my personal liking.

Fantastic food wonderful service

Superb evening, wonderful food & service @ a reasonable price.....

Feel so awful for writing this review as I have had a great experience years ago. I booked a large family meal for my birthday on the 22/12/2021. On the phone I booked for 8 people & a high chair. When we arrived we all sat down. After waiting around for a while I asked for a high chair for my 7 month old son to be told that they did not have any. (Not that they were all being used) that they did not have what’s so ever. I was given no apology. We had already ordered our food by then and I had two smaller children who were very hungry. I spent 99% of my time holding my son standing as given his age sitting on my lap he wanted (to pull on glasses, places etc). I could not enjoy my food. We did not order any extras or desserts as we were very uncomfortable and just wanted to go home. Not somewhere I will be going back to. We also felt extremely uncomfortable by one of the waiters. If you have children especially under the age of 1-2 years this isn’t the place to go.

Regular visitors here for several years now. Raj and the staff are all smart, polite, helpful and knowledgeable about their menu. Will alter dishes to suit your palette. The food has been a consistently high standard for some time, from Korma to Naga extra hot. Will return time and again. 10/10.

My wife and visited this restaurant when we were unable to travel to Norwich for a birthday meal because the bus service wasn't working. In so doing they redeemed what was rapidly becoming a disasterously disappointing day. The food was delicous, plentiful, promptly served and of the highest quality. I unhesitatingly recommended this great establishment.

Raj and his team always very welcoming Great eat in and take away service, consistently high level of food quality. 5* and the best in Attleborough by a very long way

We were staying in the area on holiday and fancied a curry takeaway one night, so I took to TA to see options and plumed for this place. My Lamb Jalfrezi was poor. Lamb was hard & chewy, like it had been cooked off days ago and the sauce was very thin and runny, the chopped peppers and onions looked like they had been added late on as an afterthought! I’ve had many a jalfrezi and this wasn’t near - a poor excuse! My wife however, had a Lamb pathia which could have come from a different restaurant! - tender lamb pieces and a thick properly made sauce, which although a little hot for her, was delicious. Garlic naan was nice and pilau rice as expected.

Friendly atmosphere, great service and banter! Relaxing quality meal all round . Many thanks.😉

We have used the Rose for some time now and have always found it to be a pleasure in every area. Tonight though we have had a few issues. Firstly we didn’t specify that we wanted the vegetable curry as a main and apparently we...

We took our son here for his 18th birthday and can honestly say it was one of the best curries we have ever had. Very friendly staff too. Glad to see a restaurant surviving through hard work, good food and fine service. Ignore the idiotic...

I’m always looking for a good Indian/Bangladeshi restaurant and found one here. Staff were friendly and attentive, the beer was cold and the food was very tasty. I had the vindaloo but being a chilli animal it could have been spicier for my taste, but...

As three Indians we went understanding what type of Indian food we were going to be presented with, however what was delievered was not only substandard but not actually what was ordered. We had ordered aloo chat - what we got was a potato curry...
