Samrat in Merton

While order delicious - will order again.

Absolutely foul. Would never eat from here again and that’s a shame as this used to be my regular.

absolutely gorgeous food. all hot and tasty. 11/10 to the chef.

Great food, great value, would definitely recommend!

Consistently great service and delicious food

Excellent food would recommend

Good food, but delivery experience was a car crash. Came 30mins late to an already hour delivery time, paper bag inside plastic one was soaked through with oil so everything crashed out the bottom when picked it up, oh and they forgot to include my chapatti I ordered. Lovely delivery bloke though.

Absolutely delicious, as it always is! I have been a customer at Samrat both in the restaurant and as a delivery for almost 30 years! I have never been disappointed. The food is authentic, delicious and great portion sizes. There is so much choice on the menu and it is always delivered on time and piping hot! Great value for money. Absolutely highly recommend!!!

Excellent very tasty and delivered quickly

Delicious and highly recommended

My food arrived looking like the driver dropped it and all the boxes had opened and spilt inside the bag .it was very disappointing as usually the food is top class from here

Best takeaway in Tooting imo, always order from here.

So upset this time as food was freezing and waited over an hour from when the food was on its way.

Fantastic food. delivered when we requested and delicious as usual. Thank you 😊

on App said would arrive 7:30pm. After ordering said will arrive by 7:45pm. Arrived at 7:50pm. timing on ordering seems more accurate than the App.

Delivery guy and hus daughter were great 5* Food was banging too

Delivered in time. Piping hot. Tasty.

Brilliant value for money and delicious!

i wanted coke and got pepsi other than that is was ok

Could have been a bit warmer. Otherwise good.

Amazing food and Large portion sizes . Will definately order from there again .

Food took a long time but it is Sunday so understandable. it did arrive cold though which wasn't the best as had to reheat what was edible but threw away some parts. they also forgot chapati too. place is usually great though so won't stop me coming back just a shame about this evenings experience

The food was good when it finally arrived. Ordered at 7 o’clock didn’t arrive until after 9.

Delivery a bit late but food was warm and it’s absolutely delicious

lovely food yet again. all nice and hot and on time.

Very good value for money and very nice food would deffo recommend

Just got our take away, kind people over the phone, great classic dishes and tastes wonderful. We asked jalfrezi vindaloo hot, and it was exactly that, nice spices with green chillies and not like other places where they dump tons of chilli powder just because you asked for extra hot. Thanks! See you again.

Perfect food. Temperature, flavour, quantity was all spot on. Great prices too. And we put an extra request on which was fulfilled with no quibble. Love this place

my food was so late it was cold I'm not happy at all rang the restaurant and they told me they were busy had no delivery driver

Genuinely sensational. I can’t fault it. Been in London for 13 years and gutted I’ve only just found this!

always lovely food i have the set meal for one can never eat it all so the rest is lunch tommorow

Food took 2 hours to arrive from order, ended up being 1 hour 10 minutes late. The driver was constantly lying about where he was, as I kept getting told he was ‘10 minutes away’ when he was not. When he eventually came, he blamed the restaurant for telling him it’s 27A when he just read 274 wrong. Food was cold, poorly packed, bag split, oil everywhere. I would never order from here again, regardless of how the food tastes. Definitely need to work on delivery times and get better drivers.

Always great food and good service from Samrat Tandoori, we'll be back again soon.

Delicious food, fantastic service, exceptional value. Highly recommend!

Food was excellent really good will order again. even though delivery was a little late.

always great with delivery times. generous portions and delicious food

Delicious! Couldn't recommend enough!

Absolutely beautiful food, friendly driver, easy to contact in restaurant, thank you, very happy customer

I absolutely love this place, family recommended it to me and now I'm hooked on Samrats butter chicken.

Great food arrived earlier which we were happy about as had to wait for the start of rhe delivery time. Recommend Samrat

I ordered 3 different fish curries. The fish was very mushy like it was microwaved.. The chef dumped a ton of onions and bell peppers in all 3 curries and was so overloaded with onions and hardly any fish. The curries all tasted very similar despite me ordering 3 different curries. The vegetable side dishes such as bhindi, saag and chana also was very bland and lacking flavour. The delivery time took nearly 1.5 hours for poor quality food. Also with the amount of food, no poppadoms included…

First time ordering. Really good. Impressed!

fantastic! so tasty and amazing value! thank you

10/10 garlic lamb was incredible Thank you

Very tasty meal and lovely delivery person.

excellent quality food... I love this place ..I'm always happy with it... well done guys ..your food is the best!

great food but we've ordered here a few times in the last few weeks and every time it has all been overly spicy . even the Tikka masala was spicy .

lovely food. the naga chicken aroma was gorgeous and the onion bhaji nice and crisp. all round lovely food.

Great food from a great restaurant 👍

Got take away order dramatically wrong. Poor show. Overcooked rice. Terrible butter chicken (coconut not cream. Poor food too

The food is super tasty even for me who normally don’t like Indian food. The price is fair as well.

Worst food Not recommended It’s for English peoples not for Asians

Lovely food quality. Ready on time. Will order again.

allways wonderful food everytime i order

Food was piping hot on arrival. Very tasty as always. Samrat is my favourite Indian restaurant in Tooting. 5 stars

sauce from curry had spilt in bag and pilau rice came instead of plain rice.

I met up with friends and we wanted an Indian close to Tooting Thameslink station. Byo booze was great as there were many off licenses close by which kept the cost down. The menu was varied featuring your favourites as well as new interesting tasteful dishes . We had a great time and would recommend it.

Great old school BIR curry absolutely delicious fantastic value as I ordered the 1 person meal that’s a main curry your choice naan pilau rice 3 onion bhajis poppadoms Bombay potatoes and a soft drink for about 18 quid mine was 50p more as I wanted white meat chicken but amazing value and great flavours everything was made to perfection. I’ve tried the fancier Indians and the fancier Indians I live in tooting it’s absolutely full of different levels and styles of Indian food but I really enjoyed

One off the best indian in Tooting...London or maybe in the world. Good food with great service... I will remend you try ur self and You wouldn't be disappointed Lots of thanks to great service M. Azem

Nice little find I think. Food was of good quality enjoyed.

The best food I've ever had , highly recommended 👌 yummy 😋

The korma wasn’t nice at all, unfortunately. It had a really odd taste to it and w eaten. Everything else was ok.

Great food as all ways and a first class delivery

Usually very good, but an hour late on an order made an hour and half before the requested time is poor.

Food was fantastic, delivery was quick. Really good value vs other Indians in the area. Will definitely be ordering again. Thank you!

food was good 👍 communication on delivery

Takes a while to arrive but it is definitely worth the wait! Always hot and delicious. Also reasonably priced too. A wonderful selection of food to choose from. This is one of our favourite places to order from!

What a retro discovery. Decor like an original 80s curry house complete with large handpainted frescoes full of Eastern promise. Lots of four person booths with hand etched uplit dividers and old-school Indian music wailing in the background. All a bit run down but that was part of the charm. Proper linen white tablecloths and napkins. BYO on booze so you pop across the road to Lidl or Tesco and save a packet. Service really attentive. Food arrived in good time and was surprisingly good in generous portions. Has a proper Tandor oven which is rare in the area and they make their own paneer. Left stuffed with a doggy bag for less than £20 a head. All in all, a highly recommended retro, yummy, value for money, gastro experience. Try it and keep places like this alive.

Best indian ever around this area I'm from nort east England and these guys do it great!

Excellent food as always and they supplied missing item from previous order.

Overcharged should have been 15% off Please refund

We ordered last night and it tasted extra. probably on quieter nights they can take thier time but was delious

Drink was missing. I rang restaurant immediately and they offered 10% off my order to make up for it. Unfortunately there has not been done . :( .

I used to order from here years ago. First time back and the food was quite basic. Had better, had worse.

I requested my order to be delivered as soon as possible and I was very impressed when it arrived 30min earlier that the predicted time! Brilliant and well done. I will definitely be returning!

The food, as always, top quality. They didn't have lamb shanks as ordered and phoned promptly to allow me to change the order. Early delivery was not a problem for us...

Food was absolutely mesmerising. As someone who has been all around the world, I have never tasted a cuisine quite as authentic as this. A big congratulations to the team at Samrat for their service. Will I go again? We will be there.

The food was a flashback of home and the service was amazing. Hard to find good indian cuisine with a homely feel but this place nails it. 10/10 would recommend

Pilau rice was microwave rice for sure, and the poppadoms were stale!! Really disappointing- meat was tough everything g seemed “left over “

Unfortunately it was late and miss in some items

The best Indian restaurant I know of. It never ceases to impress, with really beautifully prepared food. I've never enjoyed anywhere else more. A 5-star rating from me every single time.

I enjoyed my starter dishes very much. Didn't try the main dish as not really my type of curry but apparently it was also very delicious.

Delivery time good - friendly driver. Food good & tasty - good size portions - Set Meals v good value with discount. Menu sticks to the tried & tested - good local 'go to'

My chicken madras was cold and so was my tikka cold and burnt hard to chew

Not bad, had better, had worse. Don’t set the bar too high and you won’t be disappointed. Basic food.

Best Indian in Tooting! Never disappoints :)

Always order from here. Food is always really tasty and good value for money

Reading through the reviews I just dont get it.. not once have I had a disappointing meal from these guys.. always hot always tasty.. always tender and plentiful.. I would never grom anywhere else.. I live this place!

Didn't reflect its reviews. the lamb karahi was less lamb and more onions. Same goes for the masala fish, which was very disappointing. I was naive enough to think it'll be the same as the big restaurants in tooting, but I was wrong.

I had been here a couple of times b4 and liked it. This business has always been a Del Boy retro 80’s sort of place, and actually I liked that, being retro myself. Having heard it had had a refurb I was curious to return I could see no changes at all except it seemed to be now an unloved and further deteriorated But notwithstanding this, it is no longer licensed although BYOB permitted But the food was not great and the Popadoms arrived within seconds both cold and stale. There were also no deserts available at all I’m am reluctant to post negatively on any business but this restaurant was overall pretty bad. It really needs a complete rip out and start again, and with new management to entice me back….

I can't believe how bad the service delivers to someone else nearly 2 hrs waiting be recterfind

Meat was not pre cooked on charcoal grill. Just thrown in a pan with sauce and boiled

I live 5minutes away and yet my delivery was estimated 1hr to 1hr30mins and despite that it still came late… 1hour 45minutes LATE! So obviously the food was no longer hot and we had to warm it up in a microwave (i dont like doing thay) which changed the taste of the food.

Your food is of excellent quality and taste although you do not do value for money,the portions you put in the containers are way out of proportion to the amount you charge, come on lighten up try treating your customers with more respect or you will rapidly start to lose the patronage of the public through your doors.

Lovely food, first time ordering from here and will use them again.

I am a life long curry fan and wherever I go I seek out the local restaurants. Yesterday, I ordered a lamb curry and vegetable Thali. It was sensational and of authentic flavours. I would highly recommend the food here.

Best indian food ever ..my favourite go to

Despite calling several times & getting promises that the driver had just left, this was clearly not true. The restaurant is 10 mins away not 40. The food eventually turned up at just before 9 - nearly 2 hours after I had placed the order. By this time it was too late for me to eat because my stomach gets upset if I eat too late in the evening. It was also cold. The Samrat cooks tasty food but this is the third time it has let me down on delivery. I won’t be using them again & certainly wouldn’t recommend them to other people

Unfortunately we threw away the 3 portions of fries and coconut rice (too dry) They were not suitable for eating. Very disappointing to threw away food that you have paid. The chicken was fine. Not quite Indian, not hot but OK. The chicken tika masala doesn't taste as the traditional Indian food that you can find elsewhere. It is sweet but eatable and suitable for kids. The delivery takes 1 hour.

Good Quality Tasty Food - Traditional Menu - Good Sized Portions - If you like hot try the Chicken Naga - Still Reasonably Priced & Good Value
