My friend and I ate here a few weeks ago and we were really nicely surprised. Also we found out it was BYO wine which was a bonus! We really enjoyed our meals, probably more than we were expecting to. I asked for something else mid meal and it came so quickly. The staff were all very friendly and polite. They were rushing around and working really hard to keep everyone happy as it was so busy. When we got our bill we were surprised - it was the most reasonably priced meal we’ve had in a long time. By 9pm it was getting really loud in the restaurant as there were some large tables, thankfully it was time for us to leave. If you’re looking for a quieter atmosphere I think booking early is a good idea based on this. We both said we would definitely eat here again.

Difficult review to leave because the food might have been okay if it had been received in reasonable time and whilst still warm. To add insult to injury we were repeatedly lied to about the progress of our delivery when we first phoned to chase it. We were told it was on the way and would be with us in a few minutes. When we phoned again half an hour later we had the same response. A man who called himself Tony then called us back to apologise just as the food was arriving. When I called him back he grandiosely offered that if I called in to see him he would "look after me". I declined his offer and said we would speak again after we could see how the meal had gone. Regrettably the damage was already done as the meal was for myself and a group of friends, 10 in total, who had travelled to the area to hold a special version of a monthly club meeting. The whole focus of the weekend was the Saturday night meeting and the meal was to be eaten during the interval of the meeting. The late delivery of the food completely ruined the plan for the evening and hence the weekend. I tried to call "Tony" a couple of times afterwards with no joy so I wrote to him explaining the above and have not heard from him. Needless to say we would not use Star Anise again and I would not recommend them to anyone else.

Was passing this Ashbourne town ,and seen sign star anise , so straight away though yes some Indian food for today, went upstairs place was very busy staff running around like crazy , obviously trying to please everyone, after couple minutes they took my order, I stated very clear what I wanted , but the staff members was seemed very distracted while taking my order. After waiting around 40 min for my order I finally got it. (The bag smelled really nice ) so I left back to my hotel.( which is bout 20 min away from this restaurant) when we arrived set up for dinner etc I noticed that my order was missing a portion, we ordered 3 different portion , lamb bhuna - lamb saag - lamb biryani - one fried rice - 3 plain naan . We received lamb bhuna - lamb saag , rice and naan . Because I was to tired to drive back I just left at this , and I couldn’t ring them coz the place where we were staying was absolutely no reception. And we left fallowing morning. Food indeed was very nice , but I’m absolutely disappointed of the staff making this kind of mistakes, as I was charged for the air in the restaurant.

Took my son home from Uni. Embarrassing. Tired appearance and the young guy running the place was aweful. Left half an hour to take the order. Not asked if we wanted a jug of water left with nothing. Then another half hour for food when empty. The presentation was like a nursing home. Crossed my fingers didn,t get poisoned. Then didnt really want it no appetite after so my son said he,d take it home then the guy brought silver food boxes to the table and scooped it off the plates infront of us! Unreal in a restaurant. It gave Ashbourne a bad . Wont go again and my stomach hurt in the morning. Dirty place and aweful service.

my experience was quite disappointing. The chicken tikka masala was overly pink, suggesting an excessive use of food coloring. The desi lamb was half-cooked and lacked flavor, and the dish was overly oily. Additionally, the garlic naan was half-cooked. Given these issues, I cannot recommend this restaurant to others.

Obviously a bad night at the Star Anise. Ordered 2 meals at 18:51, app said delivery by 20:07, arrived 20:45. Lamb Rogan Josh was bland and tasteless, more like a lamb stew. The King Prawn Byriani was very dry with a reasonable taste, however the prawns tasted unfresh and we're very rubbery, didn't eat any after the first. The onion bhaji was the only positive on the order. Tried calling them but the phone was engaged constantly. Gave up after 4 attempts. Won't be using them again.

I’ve had 3 deliveries to date and all have been really good. I will say the consistency varies from each delivery, some were better than others but all tasted absolutely delicious. It’s perplexing the terrible reviews as the dishes I’ve ordered have been wonderful. Deliveries are quick and the dishes arrive warm. The Peshwari Nan is to die for, although second and third deliveries were missing the currants. The first delivery was the best I’ve ever have. Love the sauces. The kormas are yummy and enough for 2 servings.

One of the worst curry meal I had....... Had a takeaway last night. We ordered tandoori chicken, tikka chicken, onion bhaji, poppadum and pickles trays. Rice, nan, chicken nuggets and chips. Pickle trays all tasted very chemical-y, neon green for yoghurt sauce? Dark red sauce vaguely tasted like mango chutney....my kids usually love poppadums....they hated the sauce so much that most of the popadums left untouched. I don't blame them. If my kids enjoyed the bland sauce infused with so much food colouring, I would be more worried. My chicken...it tasted fresh and tender but without the colouring, I wouldn't have known it is supposed to be tandoori chicken.. My husband's tikka chicken is overly sweet and not balance spiced."the sauce is of industrial gunkiness" said my husband. Onion bhaji too doughy... Nan bought from the shelves instead of freshly baked. Rice....I can tell from opening the lid that the rice cooked from a very very old batch of poor quality rice. Tasted it just to confirm it! Most of the dinner, which cost 50 pound went straight into the bin and we ended up stuffing our frustrated semi- empty stomach with chocolate....sooo disappointed!

I think there are a lot of factory-made ingredients being used here. I should have guessed from the menu offering garlic-coriander naan but not just garlic, and indeed it looked and tasted like the supermarket ones. The curry sauce also had that factory-made taste and the poppadom pickles were beyond awful. I can see from other reviews that this is what people around here think Indian food is supposed to taste like, and I pity them.

Great curries, and multiple real Indian breads like roti and chapatis. When they say hot, they mean it! And their jalfrezi is awesome. Do bring your own alcohol(off-licence across the street) helps keep the price down as they don’t sell alcohol

The food was terrible. We waited about 45 minutes for the main dishes to arrive. All the dishes lacked the flavour and salt. We needed to gobbled up food really quickly as we were also asked to clear up the table by specific time. Disappointed. We knew that it was a last minute booking on Saturday. We knew we needed to clear the table by specific time, which was absolutely fine. But it doesn't justify that we should wait that long for the food to arrive? There was only about 30 minutes left by the time we got main dishes: then we also needed to pay the bill while some of us were still earing and leave in rush🤷🏻

This place is great - so much improved ofter when it used to be the Bednall Cottage, years ago. New owners, of course. The food is fabulous, with many dishes you won't see at other restaurants. The staff are attentive, and if the proprietor (Tony) is in, he's really enthusiastic and a real hoot. And of course is unlicensed, so you take you're own booze which really keeps the cost down. Thoroughly recommended.

Came to Star Anise on Saturday night as we were staying locally. So glad we booked because it was really busy. The menu was a decent size and had a great selection of dishes as well as chefs specials. The food was absolutely beautiful. We had Sheek Kebab and Chicken Pakora for starters. The Sheekh Kebab was so fresh and tasty and the chicken pakora were soft and tender with a nice crispy batter. Mains were also delicious, we got the Tandoori Garlic Chilli Chicken and Chicken Tikka Korma, both sauces were the perfect consistency, plenty of meat and most importantly full of flavour. Side dishes also very good, Keema naan had plenty of Keema. Overall I couldn't fault it. Much better than some Indian restaurants we have been to in our local area and that's Birmingham which is the "curry capital"! At the end of the night we struggled to get a taxi back to the place we were staying, we were trying for 40 minutes and had no luck. The restaurant kept trying the local taxi companies on our behalf which was kind and one of the waiters also offered to take us back himself which was so lovely and not expected whatsoever! In the end we managed to get an uber but the staff at this restaurant were so friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. Definitely recommend and if we are in Ashbourne again we will be coming here 😋

It's been a great place, very cosy and perfect service, very fast. We had mainly pasta and some starters. Squid and sea food are very fresh and nicely done.

Sadly no snaps. Lovely festive menu, service and ambiance. If we go there no more frequently, we go there every Xmas and never disappointed.

An amazing intimate experience with the staff out weighing the stunning lodges, buildings and surroundings. Dup our porter is an amazing unique individual and our sound therapy session with Sarah was an amazing and special experience.
