Poor quality takeaway - quite dissappointed with our takeaway from here the onion bhaji and veg samosa were small and flat, the chicken pathia had lots of liquid wasn’t the usual red colour and didn’t taste how one would normally taste the children’s meal was tiny and we had to cook some chicken nuggets for her and the madras just didn’t take nice

Tasteless, only tastes of salt no other flavour, swimming in grease and the lamb is as tough as boots. Worst Indian I’ve ever eaten. Sadly the food doesn’t match the lovely decor. First time ordering won’t be ordering again.

Booked a meal for me and my lady,so got there on a cold February night,we were taken to a table in the conservatory absolutely freezing ,so after complaining we got another table but this was also cold ,the meal came but soon went cold as ther was no plate heaters , there was also no tablecloth and the staff could not be arsed to light the table candle, the waiter did not have a proper command of the English language... in short this place as gone down...I noticed that there seemed to be a certain atmosphere recenting English people amongst the young waiters because of Israel conflict

After dining at the Simla since it opened all of those years ago, I just wanted to express how the enjoyment to dining there is always complimented by excellent food, great service and a most welcome atmopshere. You are always guaranteed consistent high quality cuisine, immaculate presentation and at a very affordable and reasonable price. Thank you again to Mo, Ali and the team

We were on a canal boating holiday looking for a takeaway meal and this was very close for us to walk to and pick up. The staff were very helpful when we rang and ordered, and very chatty and friendly when we picked it up. The food was very well wrapped up for us to carry back, and was lovely and hot and obviously freshly cooked. The chicken was very tender (we stick to chicken curries so cannot comment on lamb etc) and there was a good amount of it in each dish. The flavours were lovely. We definitely recommend Simla and will be back next time we are this way on the canal.

Don’t often leave reviews, but this blows Farmhouse out the water. I had a tandoori salmon for starter, it was fantastic, bursting full with flavour and garnishings also. Mains; chicken tikka biryani, full of flavour, chicken sizes are spot on, chicken to rice ratio is 10/10, just right. I hope I get to come back here again, honestly over the moon with my experience.

Called into this restaurant on Friday night, wasn’t busy at all and guided to our table. Huge menu with loads of choices but extremely average tonight. I can tolerate average food as it’s normal in this country but the staff attitude is poor. The chap who served us was extremely miserable and really couldn’t be bothered and when I complained about the chicken his attitude was so what. Asked another member of staff where the toilet was and he just pointed. Reasonable menu, average food and staff were very poor. No further visits.

Thought we would try somewhere different for a curry this time. Really disappointed with this place, both curry's were bland and flat, tasting of nothing particular. Chicken Tikka masala: sauce really watery. North India Garlic and chilli lamb: Could barely taste the lamb chunks, the sauce was really flat and bland with chopped chilli's and Garlic stirred in. Didn't finish as it got quite sickly. Fried Garlic Rice: Boiled rice with chunky garlic chopped in. Naan bread was nice. Waste of money, won't be using these again.

Indian delight, we wanted to try some spicy food and everyone in the group loves Indian food. Come recommended by work colleagues. We arrived early to find lots of space, was not busy but filled up before we left. Good atmosphere, clean and classy feel. Service was on point with a more experienced server helping when our server was not able to answer. Good recommendations offered by the server based on your taste. We had the Rogan Josh, lamb biryani tikka masala, some meat samosas. Very tasty food, great flavours, great portion sizes and not too expensive. Affordable Indian restaurant with a huge selection to choose from. Classic dishes, and some Westernised dishes. Good vegetarian options. Large venue, very spacious. High ceilings which makes the venue feel airy. Thanks for a great evening out.

There is one thing about this place, albeit a very good setting for a nice dinner, the issue is that the food is not real authentic Indian food. That said, we ordered vegetarian. It is sweet and what we'd refer it to as "modified for white people" the waiter that took our order was excellent and understood what I said and did his best to tell the chef and got at least half our order good. There are also very few veg dishes in contrast to meat. A restaurant is only as good as it's food gets and unfortunately, as a foodie and a top 10% reviewer, Simla didn't make the cut.
