Royal Tandoori in Tandridge

Food was delicious but 60p for ONE popadom is a bit extreme considering you used to get a pack for free. We spent £50 so was expecting more for sure.

First time, food excellent, arrived in good time, and price very reasonable, will be using them again

Best Indian restaurant in Caterham. No business can make a curry like royal tandoori can. There brilliant. Great tasting dishes and everyone I show royal tandoori is instantly hooked and won’t go anywhere else. Lovely people, great chefs. Very clean.

Took 2hrs 25 mins to arrive and was cold. No salad or sauce to accompany bhaji. Will never order from here again

Their packaging is pretty awful to say the least. We got chips in paper bags and by the time we got our order its was stone cold. BTW the masala chips are just chips with red chilli powder over it, pretty horrible tasting. I just won’t be bothering with them again.

Such lovely curry as always thank you x

Nice food and really friendly staff

The curry is full of sugar and too sweet, needs more space and flavour

Delivered it to my next door neighbours

Getting weird phone calls from this place number so I don't know if they have some scam-side business

Veggie Samosa was bland tbh. Same for madras… I had to add quite a bit of salt. Spice level was good though.

My order was delivered between promised time frame. Kebab, chicken tikka and samosas are amazing! Biryani was much spicier than I expected but it was still delicious! Thanks for the extras.

Best Indian take out in caterham

Always my go to Indian take away spot

Estimated delivery time was 19:45-20:05 (already a 60 minute wait) and the food didn’t arrive until 20:40.

4pieces of chicken in a curry for 10pounds? what a joke

As it Arrived 15 mins late food wasn't hot plus a little disappointed at how small the portions are. But quality ingredients

Good food good service thank you

The stingiest restaurant I have ever seen, did not had nothing with the order, no sauce, no salad, no chutney and no poppadom nothing apart from the 2 containers that I ordered Well if that’s how you want customers to come back to you then good luck with that

I like royal tandoori and I have eaten there many times, so I thought I would try a takeaway. The chicken dhansak was far too hot. I like chillies but this was hot. My wife could not eat it. It was like someone had added a pot of chilli by accident. The onion bhajis were flat. Now this may work in the restaurant, but when they have been in a bag for ten minutes they go as hard as rock. I could not cut them, I had break them in bits with my hands. When I bit them they nearly broke my teeth. Make them round for take away. It is real shame this takeaway was no where near the food in the restaurant.

Excellent food and great service

Food was good quality and nicely cooked, but the Balti I ordered was very spicy - I wouldn't order it again. Also, I would have liked a side salad with it.

food seemed like it had been microwaved / not to good

Perfect in every way. Well done and thanks. 👍

Onion bhajis were flat and rock hard not edible. the single popadum was soft (p s unlike all other restaurants I have ever ordered from, the don't give complementary popadums so if you ordered some you literally get one and no dips unless you pay). The nann bread was disappointing, rubbery and flavour less. Rice was ok. Chicken tikka masala was average nothing to write home about, though chicken was a bit odd in texture. It was not the worst I have had but I won't be ordering again.

Our food was absolutely delicious!

Worse food and rude people, I don’t recommend

Sauces v watery n onion bhaji was flat n not v nice. Plenty of meat in the curry tho

Great food. This time it took a long time to come but was worth the wait

Excellent food tonight really enjoyed it

Sheek kebab was pretty pathetic and extremely dry, as was the garlic naan. The rest was alright

Best curry takeaway in Caterham. Friendly staff, great tasting food.

Awful and unsafe service. Dishonest and rude. Food was late and the delivery driver tried to get into my property and would not leave despite me asking him to leave and kept threatening me that he was call the police on me for the food I had paid for through uber eats? Stressful with having to contact the police when I thought I would just be getting a take away

UNSAFE SERVICE. Do not order here. They were extremely rude and dishonest. The delivery man which was the manager of the restaurant tried to block me closing my door and barge into my property. Asked him to leave several times and he would not. Needing to contact the police.

Always excellent value for money.

it was what i ordered and really tasty

Beautiful curry served by very nice people. Been using them for many years....highly recommend

Ordered from here a lot. Always been ok. My main tonight was absolutely disgusting. Had a weird burnt taste to it and was very oily. Called restaurant and they said they would send me a new one, rice and Naan as I’d poured my curry all over the rice and the Naan would be cold when the replacement arrived. No problem. However, just the main and rice turned up. No Naan. Not happy. I won’t be using them again.

Had to wait over 2 hours for delivery. The delivery driver was surly and uncommunicative. The food, when it eventually arrived, was cold so we had to microwave it before we could eat it. I won't be ordering from here again.

Just moved into the area, so it was a gamble as to which Indian restaurant we ordered from. So glad we went for Royal Tandoori! Delivery was 15 mins early (on a Friday night), excellent portions, and really tasty food. The tarka dal was the best we’ve had in a long time…! Will be back.

EVERYTHING WAS COLD APART FROM THE POTATO AND THEY ARE ONLY 3 MINUTES AWAY

Bland. Used to be good. Watery korma. Stingy on rice. Guy tut tutted at me because I didn’t give tip. Delivery included. Avoid

We ordered tonight for the first time following good reviews and can only say we are disappointed. The food (coming from the bottom of our road) was lukewarm, the paneer starter consisted of only a few bits of paneer, was extremely bland and for £7 we expected a few more pieces! The portion sizes all round were poor. The poppadums were soft and the chutneys watery. The onion bahjis were greasy and soft. The best dish was the Northern Indian garlic chilli chicken which was delicious. Unfortunately we won’t be back!

this restaurant is far becoming my favourite take away the food is always so tasty..

Good food, and prompt for a Friday night. I would definitely use them again.

The chicken in all the dishes was overcooked.

Food is lovely but the delivery times are getting worse and this was a mid week birthday treat and expected it to be a quicker delivery

My Bhuna was as good as always. Chicken Biryani not really the deal so best avoided

This place used to be good, the curry last night was tasteless, bland and the chicken was tough.

Fantastic every single time. Always quick on delivery, always piping hot, always correct!

Best Indian take away in Caterham

Thank you food wonderful as usual x

Food was a little bit cold, was nice enough. Delivery took quite a long time but was within the time given on the app.

The food was nothing short of perfect, I got the hotter version of my usual it really did not disappoint

Really good food… we have found a new Indian Takeaway! Delivery estimate was initially over an hour but food was delivered much quicker Will definitely look to order again.

Always good and plenty of vegan options

I've been ordering from this wonderful place for many years now. The food is delicious, always piping hot and gets delivered on time or earlier. I've got a few favourite dishes, if you like it very spicy, I highly recommend the Lamb Mirchi Biryani!

Really good food and service. Even got a follow up call to check how good was which I’ve never had before!

Excellent food with speedy service

2 out of 3 meals were nice the 3rd meal korma tasted bland with no flavour and the chicken was so chewy the meal couldn’t be eaten, disappointing

A lovely lady came and delivered my food very sweet and polite woman a credit to royal tandoori if I could give her 10 stars I’d be happy to keep going girl u are wicked

food was nice but for the amount i paid, i was really shocked at the portion sizes was very disappointed .

Terrible terrible half food missing a hair in food long wait but told otherwise cold tasteless and rude kebab shop next door never ever ever again

Piping hot, well spiced, highly recommend!

Food lacked a bit of flavour and arrived cold.

Great food always tasty & hot, lovely people. Thank you 😊

The food and service from Royal Tandoori is always consistently top quality. We don’t use any other Indian restaurant.

Vindaloo wasn't spicy at all. Oil had leaked all inside the bag, the food was swimming in oil :( won't be ordering anymore, sorry.

The food was ok, however, it took 1.5 hours to be delivered and even though I had put notes for the driver he couldn't find me, so I had to go and meet him. After an hour of waiting for the delivery I called the restaurant to be told the driver was on his way. 20 minutes later (bearing in mind they are 0.6 miles from me) the driver still wasn't anywhere to be seen. By the time it arrived the food was cold. I would not recommend this restaurant for deliveries as you will be kept waiting.

First time ordering from here. Arrived earlier than expected, Food was very nice and hot, thumb's up from me 👍

Great food especially the lamb rogan josh.

great taste, perfect quantity, nice and hot, fast delivery, excellent service

Food was late and cold. Delivery driver was rude. Not impressed.

Unfortunately our food told 2 hours and 45 minutes to arrive. When it did arrive it was missing the rice. Wouldn't order from here again.

Excellent service and food every time we order

Long wait time but food is still great.

Such a rude delivery driver, I was shocked. I put a note on the order that my bell is broken and to knock on the window. My neighbour ended up answering the shared door as he was pressing their bell and he pretty much threw the food at me shouting why is your bell broken over and over! Food ok, nothing special, definitely not worth being spoken to in such an aggressive way.

Over two hours to deliver. Really not great experience. But good food.

Shocking service! I ordered on a Monday night at 17:20 and they gave me a delivery time of between 1 hour and 1 hour 20. I expected they were being overly cautious but it was actually 20 minutes late; arriving just after 19:00. When I rung for an update they were very short with me and when the guy arrived he was extremely rude. He said he wouldn't deliver here again because it was too hard to find. I pointed out that I had added instructions but he just walked off. I can accept no apology but I really wasn't expecting to be greeted with unprovoked rudeness. Begrudgingly, I'll admit the food was nice and the portions were a decent size but it's not worth the frustration that came with that experience.

Food took over 2hrs to arrive, most was stone cold. We have lived in the area for 8yrs and it’s safe to say we Will not be ordering here ever again.

None of the food was cooked properly and the meat that was in the meal was sparse and fatty. Even the breads were overdone. So gutted I spent £50 on a takeaway for my husbands birthday and it was a waste of money.

Very nice food and was hot. Satisfied with everything 😊

Probably just an off-night, but the food quality fell short of previous orders from The Royal. The Bombay Aloo was barely warm, the Naan bread very tough and dry and the Butter Chicken was OK but well short of normal standards. It will not stop us from ordering from The Royal again, but for the first time ever, it was disappointing.

food was very tasty. only problem was onion bhajees were more like fritters but still tasted ok.

We stumbled upon this take away and now don’t go anywhere else, the food is fantastic and is ready on time. The staff are friendly, what more can you ask

Always amazing and piping hot 🔥 🥵

Great food. Just make sure to order earlier than you want to eat as it gets busy !!!

Amazing quality food, my go to place for indian food - won't find a bette Indian takeaway in Catherham area!

earlier than predicted, excellent quality great size portions, piping hot, very tasty

Excellent value, very good food and good size portions. Delivered on time and nice and hot. Will definitely order again

We generally order from The Royal as it is local to our neighborhood and in they have been quite consistent in terms of food and service quality. The meal we ordered on Bank Holiday Monday, was delivered exactly on time and the quality was a couple of notches up on their normal standard. In other words it was excellent in every respect. Well done !!

2nd time ordering and still impressed 👌

Ordered for 17:55 writing this review at 19:55 as still not recieved any food. Was told delivery driver was 2 minutes away 20 minutes ago. Won't be ordering again.

First time ordering and was not disappointed. Very nice food and generous portion sizes. Thanks

Delicious Butter Chicken and the rest of the dishes were also good. Let down by the oversized Onion Bhajis which were like biscuits.

Good food. Good price. On slightly late, however, one of the reasons I chose to order from here was because the delivery time stated 30-45mins. After ordering the latest time for the order to arrive was an hour after I ordered it?

Good portion size, lots of chicken in both mains. Will use again.

Truely magnificent food, very reasonably priced, and delivered on time, What more can you ask for?!

Delicious food and very generous portions Only one problem the popadoms were burnt Which was very obvious should have been replaced Could not eat them

Really tasty food, will definitely be going back.
