Seasons Kelso in Scottish Borders

Ordered a chicken vindaloo. The chicken was dry, tasteless and hard like it had been precooked 2 weeks in advance, The vindaloo sauce had a very strong taste of cloves which ruined it. And the onion bhajis were rock hard, as though pre made and warmed up for too long in an oven. Apart from that it was a great meal I.e. the pappadums were freshly made.

Ordered takeaway. 30 minutes to wait. Food good. Cash only!!!! Very strange these days.

Sultans of Kelso is an excellent curry house. We all had different food from the menu, and it was all delicious, full of flavour. The service is excellent too. I would definitely recommend 👌

Very good and authentic food. Didn't know what to order and asked. The menus suggested were fabulous.

We enjoyed the food. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The service was very attentive and personable. The ambience was pleasant.

Delicious food - we ordered a spread of vegetarian dishes to share between 6 of us. Very friendly staff! Quick service for hungry cyclists. Thank you!

Delicious curry... particularly the spinach paneer! Very friendly and helpful!

Food was delicious, service was on point and food was delivered quickly, definitely would recommend to anyone new to the area

Sultans - clean and pleasant atmosphere, the young man serving us was polite and attentive, he also gave recommendations for different dishes. The food was beautifully presented, full of colour and the taste was amazing. One of the best Indian meals we’ve ever had, 5⭐️all day long. Looking forward to our next visit 👍👍👍

Excellent authentic Indean food. No Licence so only water or soft drink option. Food is Outstanding.

Came in for a takeout order and the staff was very friendly and efficient. They even cooked me a dish that wasn’t on the menu! My order was ready fast, and they used fresh ingredients. There are lots of vegetarian options, and the garlic naan was perfect!

Excellent food, great choice, very tasty would recommend 👍

Fantastic little Indian restaurant amazing food and not expensive guy front show was very friendly good job next time I travel to kelso I will be back.

One of the better Indian takeaways we’ve had on a holiday, and we’ve had a few! 7 of us enjoyed our choices, and the only feedback was perhaps it’s a little pricey - however that seems to be the way food is going everywhere and we’d rather pay more and get good food than scrimp and be disappointed!

I'm really surprised at the mixed reviews here. Our meal was all delicious last night, and the pricing wasn't out of line with our experience across Europe or Australia. The single issue i had was that the person setting the table for us put his hands all over the plates to move them into position. Fortunately, once we had placed our order, those plates were removed along with half the cutlery, and new bigger plates were brought. It is just that attention to how the restaurant is perceived that needs consideration. However, the food was wonderful in our opinion, all hot and very tasty. The staff were all very friendly and helpful too.

Wonderful food, I got the tandoori butter chicken with coconut rice and plain naan and it was just beautiful. They have quite large portions and its very filling, out of every indian resterant I've been to. This is the best one, the service was wonderful and the wait time for food was expected. The atmosphere was very nice and it was quite calm. Hans down, the best indian resterant I've ever been to.

Excellent service and food! Our first Indian food experience, just walking by and the smells lured us in. Greeted and seated immediately to an appetizer of poppadoms and 4 chutneys (yum!) and a feast of Achari and the North Bengal special, lemon rice and peshwari naan which were all delicious. The achari was particularly memorable and now I'm addicted to lime pickle. Highly recommend!

We had dinner in Sultans last night. Absolutely brilliant service and food is so delicious. Can comfortably say one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve tried. Mirza is really nice and made our experience 10 times better.

It's a great Indian restaurant. Very reasonable pricing. No faults whatsoever.

Really nice and friendly front of house, couldn’t make my mind up on a starter, they suggested chilli chicken (extremely tasty) really enjoyed the meal overall which was a takeaway. Would recommend

Enjoyed a full vegetarian sit down. Excellent tastes. Thank you

Came to Kelso for a two night stay. Visited the restaurant for an evening meal. Food was lovey, service was great. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Will definitely come back on our next visit.

Fantastic food. Ready when said it would be and made a dish for me that wasn't on the menu

Excellent food value for money, I do hate paying for poppadoms but I know most people now charge for them bring your own drink

Care and attention paid to the ingredients. Delicious and good value.

Busy when we arrived, but managed to fit us in (table for 2). Good menu choice. Decent prices. Very tasty meal, good service. Def be back if in Kelso. Mirza staff member very good. Thank you

The food quality was exceptional. 100% and looked amazing. The food was tasty and made with love. The ingredients were fresh. Great service.

Great food every time. Tastes wonderful Staff are always friendly

Lovely lady on the counter, genuinely interest in our visit and very welcoming! We had a latte and a cappuccino. We were talking about canoli’s and she told us about hers and recommended us to try them. Honestly highly recommend! So lovely

Everything was spot on the lads there were very nice and gave me a few extra popadams on the house

Food was excellent and staff were very friendly and helpful. You can also take your own drink, quite handy when there's a coop next door.

Take away last night for 2 . £48.00 curry sauces disappointing ( chicken tikka masala and passant) The taka dhal side dish the best feature

Hmmm I was not impressed at all. Food was very very overpriced which I wouldn't mind if it was good but it was awful. Tasteless, Overcooked, Burnt, Hard and to add insult to injury it was cold. We went in to order to be told it would be 30 mins and they only took cash even though they were using a card machine in the resturaunt. Went back in 30 mins and had to wait another 30 until it was ready. Chicken Pakora, Onion Bhajis, 4 x Poppadums, 3 x dip (mango, mint and spiced onions) 1 x Butter Chicken, 1 x Tikka Masala, 2 x Pilau Rice £49!!!! First and Last time we will ever be there!!!

Fabulous taste of Italy in the middle of Kelso. Great coffee, fabulous cannoli and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Grazie

The food was amazing and the staff were so lovely, I wish this were my local!

Amazing find! Best tikka masala I’ve had in many years, and Jack our waiter was brilliant, always smiling and really attentive, thank you for a brilliant meal 😊

We’ve just been for a meal here and the food was excellent. The service was the best we’ve had whilst we’ve been in Kelso, very attentive and friendly. Will definitely recommend and return if we’re back in Kelso.

On a short break and popped in for some food and was not disappointed. Wish it was nearer my location.

What a fabulous meal. Chefs special tiger with lamb and a lamb naga. So very good. The young waiter Jack was so attentive and confident. Would recommend to everyone.

Excellent service and great food would definitely recommend giving it a try.

We always enjoy the great coffee at Seasons accompanied by one of their lovely toasted teacakes and a warm welcome! As a bonus, there is a good selection of interesting greetings cards.

Had a meal at Sultan’s whilst on holiday in the Scottish Borders. Don’t be fooled by the plainness of the dining area, the food, portion sizes and service are excellent. We booked a table on-line via Sultan’s website, and had an issue getting our deposit back. However, the Manager was quick to refund us directly, so no complaints from us. Top customer service.

First takeaway order was mixed results. Got the set meal for 2. Asked to change one of the curries which was done at a cost of an extra £1, bit cheeky as what i got was cheaper on the menu . The chicken tikka masala was changed to chicken bhuna. Chicken chunks were dry and overcooked with 2 small chunks of red pepper, 1 of green pepper. Sauce was nice. Chicken madras was very spicy and partner enjoyed it. That chicken was moist.3 large onion bhaji-overcooked and very, very hard and greasy. Mango chuntney-watered down, riata was much the same, spicy onions not nice, dont know what the 4th one was.. Naan was very chewy/hard as if it was old. Poppadoms were okay as were the two rices.chicken tikka side was again overcooked, onions were good in that. The potatoes in the aloo were far too big so spices didnt get to permeate which wa a shame as they tasted nice on outsides. All in all, dissapointing given dry overcooked chicken, chewy hard naan etc. Wont be a second chance, too dear to risk it. Maybe a sit in meal would be better?

Staying in the borders for the weekend and fancied an Indians and this place was 10/10! Curry had so much flavour and the chips/rice were perfect😊 Also threw in some free poppadoms for us! Thanks guys. Will be back!

Quiet, relaxing wee place and a delicious toastie! Brie and sundried tomato on a lovely bread! Very quick service! Would definitely revisit!

Sultans served the tastiest Indian food I have had in years. Great fresh cooking with quality ingredients. The service was brilliant and the meal was excellent value for money. I will definitely be going back.

Definitely recommend if you're looking for delicious freshly prepared Indian food. Our party had the chicken tikka chasni and korma with pilau rice and garlic naan. Ten out of ten everything. A special mention to Jack who was our server. He was so friendly and welcoming and did a fantastic job looking after us during our visit.

Here on holiday and ate in on Monday evening. The food and service was so good that we went back tonight before returning home tomorrow to the west coast. Mizar was the perfect host, chatted with us and made us very welcome. If you are in the area, you need to try this restraunt. Food and service is excellent.

Just ate at the restaurant. Had the chicken tikka Naga curry which was amazing. I like hot food and this lived up to it's name. Really tasty and heat built up more you ate. Would highly recommend dining here.

An amazing Indian meal!! We couldn't have enjoyed it more. I highly recommend the pistachio korma if you like sweet and creamy curries, I haven't seen this on an Indian menu before and it was truly amazing. Staff were so attentive and lovely.

An outstanding tasty meal with great portions and excellent value.

Extremely polite staff and very nice food🩷.

Dined on Saturday 27th January, ordered poppadoms, chutney tray, mixed platter, chicken madras and 2 chicken tikka masala, food very nicely presented and full of flavour, nice decor and friendly and helpful staff

I don't think I'll be ordering a takeaway from Sultans in Kelso ever again. This is my 5th attempt hoping against hope I'll get decent service & a decent meal. When they finally answer the phone they immediately put you on hold for what seems like forever. They asked me when I wanted to pick it up & I told them & they said it would be ready. I got there - no one in the restaurant apart from disgruntled customers waiting for their takeaway. I was told I'd have to wait yet another 5mins. It took 10. When I got it home, it was just a basic sauce which they added peppers & onions to & they were hard & crunchy. The Saag Aloo had ENORMOUS chunks of potatoes in it & very little else & basically tasteless. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE will someone open a good Indian restaurant/ takeaway in Kelso because Sultans is an INSULT to Indian cuisine.

Bit disappointed, no alcohol licence and £2.95 per person charge to bring your own. Food mediocre, was cold and we were the only 2 customers, not surprisingly

We were greeted by a lovely young man called Jack, he attended to all our needs with a pleasant smile the food we had was plentiful and cooked to perfection the place looked clean and the food was reasonably priced would definitely recommend

Been here a couple of times for a sit in meal and also had takeaways from there. Experience normally good but last experience was terrible we ordered online for a takeaway was told a half hour wait. drive down after half a hour to collect my order told to take a seat as will be a further ten mins. Take a seat 20mins pass ask how long it was going to be got told it’s coming in five mins. After waiting almost 30 to 40mins in the shop and asking for my food or refund they finally brought my order to me. Once got home realised we had items missing from our order wasn’t much but still annoyed about this but at this point it had been over two hours since ordering food and we was starving so didn’t ring to complain. Understand if they’re busy as a few people was in and out for takeaways and some people in for sit in meal. But why say a time if you’re going to be nowhere near that time. What really annoyed me is a group came in sat at there table for a sit in and there food was ordered and arrived at the table before my order well I was sat there waiting for my takeaway. Seems wrong they got there’s first. Terrible service and expect better

Popped along for a date night with the hubs and honestly could not have been more impressed. On arrival the front of house staff where attentive and advised on where to buy our wine for our meal (not a licenced restaurant but co op 2 minute walk) I love my indian food and can honestly say this is the best Ive had, I ordered the chicken tikka madras and it was superb, onion bhajis where beautiful and not greasy as Ive had at many other indian places. Hubby had the Rogan josh (not much of an indian food lover) but he said it was 'absolutely delicious'! Couldn't fault the pricing of the food either, all very reasonable, will be back again soon!!! *****

All enjoyed our meals and arrived before time given. Driver was friendly and called to check he was at the correct address. Definitely recommend. Had a Biriyani, Chasni, Madras and a tandoori mixed grill.

Had a very memorable night with our 2 young kids. Highly recommend the pasanda or korma , a favourite of me and my partner. Very well priced for the quality of the food. The staff were outstanding with us at the end of our meal were i proposed and my partner said YES. Many Thanks

Do not let the look of the outside put you off, a great restaurant with outstanding food very reasonably priced. The restaurant is not licensed but for a corkage charge ( £3.50 for a bottle of wine) you can bring your own drink, there is a co-op 5 mtrs. away. We planned to go one night but returned the following night the food was that good and service excellent.

So I’m told they only take cash when I went to pay for my takeaway but they take cards if you’re having a meal. Maybe this is normal but it seems like they do this to suit themselves and not the customer. The food was ok but the chicken was pretty tough. I won’t be rushing back.

A very good authentic Indian cuisine experience. Superb attention from the owners and staff. Helpful recommendations of their selection of food and drinks. Fresh tasty food came quickly, didn't feel rushed, great service. Plentiful portions, with plenty of flavour. This is an unlicensed restaurant, but don't fear as there is a coop locally near by with a large selection of drinks. Overall prices were about right for the meal, however the charge for corkage per person seemed excess. We would definitely return.

Had a lovely meal delivered yesterday evening. Arrived on time and as hot as if we had been in the restaurant. We tend to order a wee collection of sides and a single portion of rice to fit our appetites and these portion sizes were perfect. We had Vegetable Rice, Saag Paneer, Bombay Aloo, Tarka Daal and a Peshwari Naan - all really flavoursome and well prepared and very reasonable in price. Would totally recommend.

Expensive, not the best quality

Stopped nearby whilst riding the Northumberland 250. In general Indian food is popular and of high standards in Scotland. My experience of Indian food is not insignificant (Bradford, Birmingham, and numerous friends from India and Pakistan) so I can't give it 5 stars, but as you can see from the photos it is well prepared. Portion sizes acceptable. Prices in keeping with current global economic circumstances.

I have eaten here on several occasions this year (2023) and every time the food has been amazing. They will adapt any dish to your taste and they will recommend dishes if you tell the type of flavours you like. The service is alway good. They don't have an alcohol license but there is a Co-Op just 50 yards along the street, this makes your meal quite inexpensive. Highly reommended.

This was a holiday meal in a rural area not easy to find. But we had efficient delivery. The food was first class and would recommend greatly 👌

Perfection. Try ! You will not be dissapointed

Great food and very friendly staff

Got to be worst Indian experience ever stay clear

We were staying in a nearby village so ordered a takeaway collection, they served the best Tikka Masala I have ever had, we all got a selection of biryani, keema naan, and Kormas and for 4 meals it cost £40+ so average priced. No card payment facilities though so make sure you either pay online or take cash to pay for your order.

The food is outstanding and the portions are very generous. The staff are extremely lovely, welcoming and friendly. They deliver in, and a short distance out with, Kelso and even the drivers/taxi service they use are very kind, polite and respectful.

Excellent service, great value for money, the food is always hot and fresh, thanks again to all the staff at Sultans

Totally recommended. Friendly helpful, can't fault them

My husband and I visited Kelso for the first time and tried several eating places, but we couldn't keep away from this little gem. The people were lovely and served great food. The homely feeling was just perfect. The locals popped by daily you could tell they had built a great rapport with the local. The choclates are a must! Cant wait to visit again. Thank You. Angelica, Rab and Susie the dog.

Erg lekker eten, zeker aanrader. Aardige bediening en lekkere stoelen .😁 buiten kant ziet er niet zo gezellig uit maar binnen is het wel oké. Lekker India’s eten en snelle bediening. Zeker een aanrader👍🏻

A very nice place food excellent beef curry 10 10

I think they’ve upped the prices paid £42.50 for two meals i Call it rip-off Wouldn’t let me take a menu from the counter to check prices only take cash when you’re walking food is okay but £42.50 for two males I don’t think so won’t be going back in a rush

Food was beautiful. Best indian takeaway i have had in a good while . Staff were friendly , service was great . Good pricing . Very tasty and good value.

A great meal, very friendly helpful staff, quick service, could not fault them, best Indian meal we have had , A1, thank you,

Delicious and tasty, good service

If you want an Indian meal then definitely get one from here. We were on holiday here last year and ordered a meal from them which was excellent, so ordered one again this year and again very very good. We had ours delivered which was in good time and the quantity you get was amazing. Please don't listen to reviews like "it arrived late" "it was cold when it got here" those are just the one's nip picking that need to find faults.

Had the special biryani and my partner had chicken tikka masala and both were amazing. The gentleman serving was brilliant. If we are back in the area will definitely be back. Would highly recommend

Poor,poor service, more interested in the pickup than the bottoms on seats. Food average, nothing outstanding, first time ever never left a tip, says it all

Thoroughly enjoyed our very first takeaway last night. The food was outstanding. Extra special flavour. Best curries we've ever had. Very prompt service too. We'll be back!

Chicken Jalfrezi was excellent good curry house.

Great food friendly service with quality ingredients will definitely be back

Fantastic food and service. We ate in and I had the Sultan’s tiger special (with lamb) and it was incredible! Such an incredibly tasty dish. My partner had the Bhuna Badami and was equally impressed. Very friendly and welcoming. Can’t wait to go back next time I am near Kelso.

Food fab, service fab. Only issue was not being screened off from take-away customers and the draught from door. We have also had plenty take- aways from here, never disappointed.

Great meal. Big portions and very good service.

Went for takeaway and was told 25 mins. Asked if they were certain an was then told 45 mins and if we left a mobile number they would call us when the takeaway was ready. We went to a local pub and when we did not get a call returned after 1hour. On our return we were then told it would be another 15 min. In the end it took 2 hours. In addition we saw other people giving up on waiting’s ant it was obvious that orders were being misplaced as the staff were constantly searching through the bags waiting for collection. Also the place was cold due to the door constantly opening and the customers were all keeping on their coats at the tables. The final insult was that as the takeaway was brought over he asked for cash. He eventually relented and allowed payment via the card machine. The meal was good, but there are now three families who will not be returning.

Food very good. Service a bit slow. Heating was on but front door opening & closing caused cold draughts.

Recently moved into the area and have been looking for decent takeaway spots. I waited a bit longer than I was told, but they were very busy (for good reason!). Absolutely awesome. Thank you. Friendly staff, delicious food.

Me and my daughter had an amazing experience here,we were made to feel so welcome. Facilities were immaculate,the food was another level and the staff were just fantastic. I Would highly recommend this gem.

Great food and efficient service!

Was delivered in a timely manner. It was very expensive and I had 5 small pieces of chicken in my meal 1 of which was grizzley and put me off. Will be a while before I eat here again 😪

Some of the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten! Had the Tandoori Chicken with Peshwari Naan. Highly recommend!

On my return from karachi my daughter took me here . The food tastes just like my great grandmother cooking . My daughter was right about the nostalgic experience. When my visa next gets renewed I shall be back .The king prawn macconi and biryani are just something else . I can't believe a taste of home country exists so local to my daughter . If she doesn't have my home cooked food this is just as good . The service was immaculate and the young man behind the counter was so quirky and nice. The workers were so respectful and treated me as if I was there mum. Beautiful food I love it 😀

Since i migrated to this country it it has been difficult to find good quality Indian food but my first time tasting food from here gives me childhood nostalgia of my childhood in Mumbai. Everything was so perfectly spiced and the service here was truly incredible. The staff were so friendly and made me feel so comfortable they reminded me of my family back home. I recommend the king prawn makonii although it is a bit pricey its the best best there is, absolute perfection. This is truly a taste of home. Thank you for welcoming me I cant wait to come back when my parents come back from Karachi I guarantee shall be back. 10/10 expereince.
