Star Of India in Tendring

I thought I would have a change from my usual Indian but wish I hadn't! This had more stars so was expecting a better quality. The food was hardly warm. The garlic naan didn't smell or taste of garlic but was clearly a plain( cheaper) one . The samosa pastry was hard. Didn't enjoy it at all.😞

Highly recommend nice food Large quantities cooked nicely arrived before time.

food was cold ...some of the rice was hard

Food is always delicious and hot. Portions very generous.

Great food fast delivery will use again

Got a bland bhuna instead of the garlic chicken naga balti i ordered.. Bit on the cold side but still good.

Just had a Chicken Tikka Naga takeaway from here and it was 100%

Good food very tasty fast delivery

My grandad said its as good as 99% of Indians he has had and far better than most good size portions great staff very polite and he has been eating Indians for over 60 years, delicious food very much enjoyed.

I always order from here as the quality and taste of food is consistent every time.

the best Indian food in clacton/Frinton, have tried other places ,but none is in comparison to star of India, if they are not available when im going to order, then I now have fish and chip rather than go anywhere else. I've had the best now I skip the rest .

Very tasty - more spicy than your average takeaway, which was a pleasant surprise, and not swimming in oil! We ordered several starters which were enough for two good sized meals, making it good value for money as well. The chilli mushrooms were a hit in this house! Will definitely order from here again.

Always tasty and our go-to Indian takeaway

Orderd a Tandoori mixed grill was not very warm wont be ordering from this place again i been to many indian restaurants and takeaways this one was my worsed experience.

Just had order from Star of India. Delicious, definitely recommend

Good service, good advice on choice of dishes, generous portions and very delicious food!

So good, always very happy with our food from here!

Received an email yesterday from the Star of India advising code for 15% discount if an order for a take away is placed online and yet when i just tried to use it, i was advised that its no longer valid!!!! Why bother sending an email offering a discount if you can't use it? Not impressed.

Everything was good apart from the daal soup which was watery with not a lot of flavour

Best curry I've ever tasted, I had to order from somewhere else for 2 months as star of India was not taking orders gor some reason, u tried 3 different places and none of them was as nice as this place, will not go anywhere else for curry

A delicious Indian take away. It arrived hot and on time. Would order again!

Fabulous food, great portions, highly recommend.

The second meal in a row that wasn’t nice, this time it was the chewy stringy chicken tikka, no mint sauce, greasy rice and a naan bread that tasted stale, last week it was the lack of king prawn in the jalfrezi, greasy rice, no mint sauce with tikka items and watery sauces….. two weeks in a row that most of it has gone in the bin. It’s gone downhill and I won’t be re ordering from them again.

thoroughly delighted with early delivery. good food as usual. portions are too big for me, so bigger eaters will be well satisfied!!

Perfect curry as always. Hot and delicious.

Good portion sizes and food was amazing

Was delivered a bit early but food was delicious.

Food was awful korma was spicy! To hot for the kids to eat and everything tasteless won’t order from them again

Was a slight mix up with the food, they were very good and got the replacement food out sharpish, it was delicious.

Absolutely wonderful food! Delicious, portions are very generous and just, wow, got to be some of, if not the best Indian I have ever had. Would highly recommend

Absolutely delicious, we ordered to the campsite we were staying at. All of the food was hot and fresh. Would defo recommend!

Beautiful tasty food. Wasn’t worried it took longer than planned. Gave me extra mint sauce for the salad they forgot to put in! (Should have come with Tandoori dish). Bit disappointing but nice food.

The Tandoori mixed grill is always amazeballs

I’ve never left a review before, even when I’ve had a particularly negative experience. But our food was so bad, I couldn’t not accept JustEat’s request to write a review. I’ve never, ever, eaten chicken so tough and rubbery. My wife could hear my teeth sinking through the meat from across the table. It also tasted really quite odd, unlike any chicken I’ve eaten before. It was the same for the starter, which we couldn’t eat. The korma tasted unlike any korma I’ve eaten in the last 30 years and was actually really spicy, so again, it couldn’t be eaten. The masala sauce was also not good, tasting like anything other than a masala sauce. I now have £30 less in my bank account, a bin full of Indian food and sicky feeling in my stomach from that chicken 🤢

food was disappointing. completely mess.

it was not a problem being early. lovely food & service & delivery

Arrived early, I’m used to the Indian in Brentwood and brick lane. Let’s put it this way it matches the restaurants there perfectly

Soo full of flavour, the food is always outstanding. The staff are very friendly and great menu for choice. Prices are also fair. My favourite Indian 😃

Food is Amazing always delicious

the best curry place ever, I had the chicken dansak with pilau rice, it was so nice I saved half for tomorrow 😋 🙌

Food is always amazing from here, our favourite Indian in Frinton. Fish special is soooo good, everything is always super flavourful and cooked perfectly, can’t say a bad word.

Small portions. Ordered a mixed grill for £15 and got barely anything was supposed to be chicken and lamb but was basically a little bit of chicken. Why don’t you get chips/rice with it? Shocking! Chips were dry. Rice is always nice. Not happy today this place is usually good!!

the best curry house, I will not go anywhere else since finding this place, so fresh and tasty, and always arrives piping hit

Quick delivery and a little bit earlier than scheduled but food was cold when delivered.

Disappointing. Very little lamb in the lamb bhuna.. it was mainly just sauce!

Absolutely the best Indian food ive tasted, the dansak is just the best

The best Indian food ive tasted, will never go anywhere else again, fresh and tasty food

The dansak was absolutely scrummy, , will make this my favourite curry place now

There was 6 bits of lamb in my curry ALL were inedible, either rock hard or just pure fat, was really disappointed.

Quick to arrive but greasy and lack of flavour

Absolutely lovely taste was amazing as always :) highly recommend

Dhansak was tasteless heat. No sweet and sour flavour you expect from a dhansak, just a base gravy flavour with a dry chilli powder heat. Very disappointing.

Great prompt delivery. Curry was mediocre, not much flavour sadly.

Excellent Indian, arrived on time

Very delicious food. Delivered hot too. Excellent!

Food had too much colouring and too sweet in my opinion for Indian food, lacking some spices also.

Still the best Indian food in the area!

Brown salad, stale popadoms, chicken tikka is terrible, won’t buy from here again. All Indians in area are terrible, save your money

Always gave positive reviews as deserved but unfortunately tonight’s was really disappointing and tasteless. Appreciate it may have been a one off but am only saying how it is as I did with good reviews. Hopefully better next time

Delivered early, very hot, Delicious food, as always. Thanks!

Fantastic as always ! My great grandparents used to live in Frinton, and go to the Star of India when it was a restaurant, and my grandparents now too. We are now treating our daughter to her first Indian and she loves it. 5 generations of family coming to this restaurant over the years, and it never disappoints. Non greasy, fantastic quality and service and personally one of the best takeaways around. Always recommend

Food arrived 30 minutes late, called restaurant and was told my contact number didn’t work (although I was calling from the same number). When food eventually arrived it was cold and extremely undercooked. Overall disappointing experience.

Delicious and hot. Very enjoyable 👍

Lovely food as always. Very happy. Highly recommended.

Never disappoints, the food is 5 star quality. Good portion sizes and the flavour/quality is one of the best we have ever had. We keep coming back whenever I visit family.

The food was delicious and was delivered hot.

Lovely and hot . Really good food with beautiful flavours.

The prawns in the korma were overcooked they were like bullets rest of the order was fine

Arrived a little late and wasn't very hot. Very disappointed, onions not cooked just not what I expected going by reviews

I lived in India. I have had the food in the country it is from. I lived all over the globe. This is the WORST Food period I have ever had. Saag paneer...filled with sugar? I called the restaurant and informed them, they said "I ordered wrong." I'm not from the UK..if this is how you like Indian food, with a bucket of sugar...this is the place for you. If you want to eat Indian food...find another restaurant. 25 pounds for the worst food I've truly ever eaten.

Very tasty food, and arrived at the exact time I requested- will order again! Thank you!

Got told my food was on its way numerous times, then to be told after waiting an hour that it’s been delivered but to a different address. Been waiting nearly 2 hours now.

Indian food is never cheap, but this is absolutely superb

Food arrived cold, for something that I spent £24 on you’d think it’d actually arrive hot, the potatoes were soggy, the naan was as wet as mud after a storm and the chicken was more dry than the Sahara dessert. Definitely won’t be ordering from here again.

Excellent food, one of the best Indian meals we have ever had. Full of flavour, not greasy and good portion sizes. Will definitely order from here again.

The best Indian I have had in ages. Absolutely delicious. Fresh and delivered hot. Generous portions.

Great food, good service. Was a little bit pricey for certain dishes however enjoyed very much

Gutted - because relatives swayed us to choose Star of India over British India and Mossla as been more pro them over last few years. Lamb was tough and not very tasty. Just all a bit bland. A shame.

Just delicious The rice curry dishes and Bread were all of exceptional fine quality thank you Starof India !!

Worst chicken tikka of my life. It tasted like processed chicken.

Fantastic meal. Thanks as always!

Lovely food, we all enjoyed it at our Christmas witk do.

Consistently delicious. Highly recommended.

Really nice food! Had one item missing but it was a drink and easily refunded. Packaging is a little annoying (cardboard and foil). Makes it harder to save food for the next day as its so flimsy and not really re-useable.

I’m used to Indian from Brick lane and from Brentwood. Trying find a decent Indian, thought I try this one The food was very nice indeed. I will definitely order from here again my son also enjoyed it as well

Great as usual, always very tasty food

Brilliant food very tasty will visit again

Chicken in one of the dishes was undercooked. This has happened a few times when ordering this dish.

Still not received my food and orderd it at 7!

Very nice food and fast delivery

Lovely food and quick delivery

It was a little bit late but I was informed. It was definitely worth the way the food was absolutely delicious as always

Really good food, well packaged, great Comms from the driver

Tasteless korma, rice undercooked and a nice stomach ache to finish it off

A little expensive but lovely food

Not the best quality food. Lamb tikka very fatty and chewy ! Average at best

Thank You! Lovely food as always!

Fantastic food and service. Highly recommended.

Lovely and hot . Customer service is excellent

Brilliant as always fresh tasty food we always enjoy
