Sultan Tandoori in Huntingdonshire

Had a lovely time last night, BYOB (bring your own booze) is always a winner !

I called the restaurant at 10mins late. They said he would be there in 10mins. 25 mins later, I called them again and they said they only have one driver but he is on his way. He finally arrived around 90mins after the order was made. The food was good but the bread had gone soggy.

Best Indian around - superb food every time

person or reception was extremely helpful and a delight

Fresh and tasty as always. Consistently amazing food!

food was not as nice as prior order, bombay potatoes were taste less and the modu mint lamb was also quite flavourless too.

tasty food delivered very quickly

Awesome - each dish tastes individual and freshly cooked. Always the correct order and always on time. Lamb Chops are superb….

Perfect as always - regular weekly customer 👌

The best Indian around! Fresh and tasty every time!

super tasty food delivered earlier than expected

Lovely food but unfortunately the lid was not sealed properly in my lamb curry and half of it had spilled into the bag

Very disappointed no drinks license,wasn’t informed when booked,son in law thought it was a take away instead of a restaurant.Took over an hour for the food to arrive when it did arrive they hadn’t cooked my wife’s meal. Small portions compared to other places.

Consistently amazing food. Thank you!

Sultan is a hidden gem, easily missed. We came for the first time tonight and was not disappointed, food was hot, tasty, and amazing , you bring your own alcohol too and they provide the glasses. Service was fantastic Two of us had lamb vindaloo and the lamb just fell apart , can highly recommend. We'll definitely be back

Wonderful Valentine’s Dinner Experience! We had the pleasure of dining at Sultan on Valentine’s Day, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome with their warm and attentive service. They were professional, friendly, and ensured that everything was perfect throughout the evening. The food was absolutely delicious! The romantic ambiance, excellent service, and outstanding food made our Valentine’s dinner truly special. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience! Thank you to the entire team for making our evening so wonderful!

wonderful tasty food and our new favourite

Still the best around - fresh, individual tasting, delightful Indian food.

Lovely food, been ordering just from them for some time now,

Wow! All the dishes we ordered were of great quality, delicious and well presented. From the poppadoms and pickle tray on arrival, to our various starters (including Prawn Puri, Vegetable Samosas, Chicken Pakora and Tandoori Lamb Chops) and main courses (including Makhani Chicken, Chicken Tikka Rezella, Shahi Murgh Masala, Lamb Dopiaza and Salmon Peri Peri) as well as some incredible sides, it was all fantastic. The service was politely attentive and helpful. The restaurant was not busy when we were there. It's been re-fitted recently and was very comfortable. You can bring your own alcoholic drinks. Very impressed. All in all a great night - we will definitely be back! No photos of the starters taken as we were all too hungry, but some of the main dishes and sides.

as always - excellent food delivered extremely quickly

Tasted lovely. Hot and on time.

Another superb takeaway - fresh, tasty and delicious. Thanks guys.

Food was amazing, tasted lovely and was very hot. However we did order 2hrs in advance knowing it was NYE and it was still 30 minutes late.

Solid all round, the food was good.

Lovely place serving award-winning curry dishes (my favourite was the chicken tikka balti). Bring a bottle and save a little on the bill too. Magic 🪄✨

The best food and the best service

Excellent tasty food and delivered on time 🙂Thankyou Sultan

Fantastic food. Best Indian we've had for a long time. Would definitely recommend. Fresh, tasty food, no hint of oil laying on the top of any dish. Great veggie selection . Thank you. ☺️

Had a gorgeous Indian meal last night at the Sultan Tandoori over the bridge in St Ives. Food was as delicious as ever, the service was great and I like the atmosphere now that the restaurant has been fully refurbished. An added bonus is being able to take your own alcoholic drinks, which helps to save on the budget. Give it a try to eat in or takeaway.

Late delivery and the chicken wasn’t cooked - disappointing as we normally love food from the Sultan

Ordered food at 8pm. Given estimated delivery 850pm-910pm. Fine as we live in the next town away. Food arrived at 10:05pm. Our previous order we also had a late delivery (not sure how late now) so this was second time in a row. When I called at 945pm I was told it should arrive in 10-15minutes, no apology was offered.

Started using the Sultan Tandoori after seeing a news report about an award received by the head chef. The food is excellent. My primary dish is always Vegetable Dhansak and the Sultan version is the best I have had in a long time with just the right amount of 'kick'. I can also recommend the Sultan Special rice, Sag Aloo and particularly the peshwari naan! The delivery service is exceptional - rapid and with the food at the perfect temperature. There is a very reasonable minimum order of just £20 making it suitable for single people who want a couple of days worth of food - it's especially helpful that it tastes even better reheated the next day! Online orders via the attractive website attract a further discount making the delivery effectively free.

Very tasty food but also a very cold meal we had to warm it up.

The last two times ordering from just eat from this restaurant food was late by 30/45 minutes, as a result food arrived warm not hot. We love Sulton curry but the wait is long. We were all very hungry and eating at 9.15pm is late especially when we ordered at 7.40pm and spent a lot of money nearly £70 for a takeout for 3 people. Food lovely and cannot fault the restaurant but just eat wait time not good!! Very disappointing.

Having previously ordered many takeaways from the Sultan in the past , this was the 1st time visiting the restaurant since the ownership changed and we were very impressed. The decor was modern, food was beautifully presented, portion size was just right and the service friendly. Would definitely recommend and we will be returning; just remember to bring your own alcohol

The food was lovely and hot. delivery was really quick. Delivered within half an hour of ordering.

Great - delicious and different

The food is always good and they deliver on time.

Delivery pushed back 3 times. from 6.30 to 6.45 to 7.00 to 7.15. Not good.

Really quick delivery and tasty food. Had chicken sagwala and onion bhajis.

Always lovely, brilliant quality and super tasty. Good portions and delivered hot.

Hadn't been here for quite a while quite liked the refurbe

Delivery time was average for a week day night. But the food was awful. Not only was it cold, it was bland & oily, there was no flavour to any of the dishes and certainly not any spice. Prawns were over cooked and like bullets. The lamb rogan was sweet and not a hint of spice. Naan was undercooked and soggy. Pilau rice was just boiled rice. Over all very very disappointing and would not be ordering again.

Second visit and excellent value and quality of good. Tuesday night and Sunday night is a special night. Poppadoms, starter, main and rice or nasn at currently £17.95. Restaurant nicely decorated and service good.

Great tasting food, delivered on time and hot.

Not just Amazingly fresh and tasty food - it is consistently good. Thoroughly recommend the lamb chops - devine! About to place my order for tonight 🙌🏻

Excellent food, first class service, all staff very friendly, and no alcohol licence so bring your own....saves a small fortune. Thoroughly recommend this restaurant

Delicious food friendly service highly recommend

Under new management, Abdul. Very welcoming and keen to see good service is given. Sunday and Tuesday night is special night of 1 starter, main, rice currently £17.95. There is no alcohol but you are free to bring your own. They do serve soft and non alcoholic drinks. Food is served on lovely hot plates and piping hot. Garlic and chilli rice was great. As was Prawn sagwalla. Excellent portions. One of our best meals recently. Takeaway deliveries were doing. Thank you. We will be back. Susan & Graham

Best curry around, one of the only places that does Murgh as well and it's top quality

We always order our takeaways from here but decided to dine in for our dinner here last night for a change. It was very good! The food was delicious. Service was very quick. Staff were very attentive. Restaurant was very clean and the decor was lovely and inviting. Only negative for us was that they don't serve alcohol as it would have been nice to enjoy our food with a nice beer but it was only a minor disappointment. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

delicious, absolutely superb 👌

Had a really good meal with a group of friends Good choice , Great food , great service Restaurant looks nice You can even bring your own alcohol The only thing I didn’t rate was the pickle tray - runny mango chuntney a runny hot/sweet sauce ( no lime pickle?? ) Would recommend and will be returning

Tried this place for the first time and was impressed. Friendly staff and good food. Nice sized portions and will definitely return. As other reviews have said, they don't serve alcohol, but will happily provide glasses if you take your own

super tasty. delivered quickly and piping hot

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!!SERVICE WAS AMAZING All 10/10. Will be returning next time

We ate at the Sultan last night for the first time under new management. An excellent evening. All our meals were so tasty and the service was perfect. We hadn't been warned on booking that there was currently no alcohol licence but they were so helpful in arranging for us to get some wine to go with our meal. Fabulous.

It's under new ownership. The food is fantastic. I ate the lot. I will definitely be back

The manager needs to learn customer service skills. Don’t bother going. If somethings wrong they will just hang up on you. Zero customer respect. Very disappointed. A restaurant we once loved.

really tasty food. slow delivery though but was worth the wait

sauce was too sweet! lamb was ok. I wouldn't bother with the mango ect

Visited with some friends after hearing they have had a refurbishment - and change of ownership - I have to say this is the best Indian Restaurant in St.Ives now - the food was so tasty, lots of it and the team there are so friendly and accommodating - they don't serve alcohol so take your own if you want a drink!

Best curry I’ve had in a long time. 👌

Chicken chilli masala is perfect just the right heat and full of flavour.

Food good, you can take your own alcohol. Staff are superb.

Considering how far the food had to come, it was delivered really hot...

Ordered a take away and arrived a little early to collect. Was greeted by a very polite and welcoming hostess and then greeted by who I assume was the owner. I didn’t have to wait too long before I was given my order. Came home and absolutely devoured what I ordered. The flavours and spices were absolutely delicious. The garlic naan was the best I’ve had! The sag aloo was incredible as was the butter chicken. Kudos to the chef and to the welcoming to the restaurant. Well done, Sultan!

The food was amazing and the service was excellent lovely evening 😀

Banging scran would munch again

Just had a takeaway from here and it was absolutely delicious! Under new management and refurbished! I wish them all the best! We’ll definitely order from here again!

Yesterday we went for the first time with friends to Sultan which is under new management. We were welcomed in with smiles & taken to our table. It's had a full refurb and a lovely menu with some different items. They're waiting for their alcohol licence but there are alcohol free drinks, soft drinks & beverages. The food was pleasant to look at, fresh, delicious & very tasty. We met the new manager with a colleague from a Cambridge Indian restaurant helping them out. I highly recommend it. We will go again & will order takeaway in the future too.

Fantastic curry’s .all of my family really enjoyed it will be ordering again in the future

Best around by far! No chewy meat and fantastic sauces

Another absolute delicious takeaway - thank you

It took 1:45hrs to be delivered ! Was tasty but was cold. They also put the phone down on me when I rang up and then didn’t answer again. So I text the number and no response. Disappointed

....UPDATE FEB 2024.... This Indian in St,Ives, cambs..Used to be our favourite Indian restaurant many years ago. We know it went down over the last few years but saw they had new owners online and saw all the glowing reviews .. So finally the night come for a curry and we straight away ordered from here...We were so excited to try it and enjoy a nice Indian meal again. But after waiting around half n hour to 40 mins we got a call from a young delivery driver who couldn't find our house. Fair enough, it happens. I go outside and find him. Then after opening the bag, we find a whole rice and naan missing from the bag and the food rather cold. We phoned them up and they did finally get someone to bring it . The food was okay but disappointing as it was cold, I have given it three stars as it tasted OK. A standard curry . We were left very disappointed after reading all the amazing reviews. I think we will go back to Dahba in Town. Very disappointed by this and especially for the high prices now :( Food: 3/5 | Service: 1/5

Honestly, amazing! The flavours of the grilled chicken were soooo good. Portions were good only thing I would say maybe 4 onion bhaji instead of 3. Food was piping hot and I’m very happy. Glad to have a great Indian take closer to home!

Have tried The Sultan 3 times now and have been very impressed every time. This restaurant is a little off the beaten track but well worth the visit. It's easy to park outside. The food is excellent. Good service and very welcoming staff. A really nice evening out!

The order was missing one whole meal. Also, sauces were delivered but no popadoms. Thankfully, we realised before the delivery driver left and we were able to get refunded. The food we got was partially cold but tasty. Id advise checking your delivery. Well give it one more go though.

Had a meal from here and it was superb. Cooked fresh and tasty. Could not fault it fantastic

Fantastic meal here tonight. Friendly staff with great service. I can highly recommend. All been refurbished inside giving a lovely feel and the food was fresh 😊

Boxing Day, Over night stop over and no taxis.No problem, the lovely owner came and collected us and then returned us back! The food was devine 10/10, the service was second to none. Can’t wait for next year Boxing Day!!

Food average. Went because of the meerkat offer they are clearly signed up too but then refused to acknowledge it. The excuse was 'we haven't done that for over a year'....then how do I have a meerkat offer specifically for the Sultan!!?? Clearly false advertising from the Sultan. Didn't even offer an apology or reduced bill as a good will gesture. Good job meerkat compensated us. Will never visit/eat from this restaurant again

Really good taste and reasonable price too

Best of Indian food and delivery 😊

My wife and her friends were very disappointed to discover on arrival that the restaurant did not have a licence to serve alcohol and did not allow customers own alcohol to be brought in. The food however was excellent.

Food was very good, good service.

We had not eaten in this place for a couple of years due to covid etc. But we went this week and things have dramatically changed. They do not sell alcohol anymore, there is no back ground music as there was. The room is shabby and threadbare. There is absolutely no atmosphere. The food was of poor standard and then to round it of the bill was given and I was extremely shocked at the total, very expensive. A very disappointing experience and one I would not recommend .

Food was nice, but the restaurant is not worth a visit. No alcohol either

We have ordered takeaways multiple times from this establishment and on every occasion we have asked "can they make dishes vegan?" On every occasion and speaking to multiple members of staff, we have been told they can make anything vegan. Upon ordering tonight, our usual order, we were told they could not make this vegan due to using butter and cream There was no apology when we explained we had previously been told it was vegan and clearly lied to. The person on the phone tonight who seemed to be in charge even said that the previous people we spoke to 'must have lied' and showed no concern about this. We are very disappointed with this and will not be eating here again. Fortunately we do not have any allergies or Intolerances as this could have been very dire for anyone who does have allergies. Very very disappointing and would not recommend.

I had a delivery tonight the food was not Edable at. Called to complain and they hang up on me. And refused a refund. Now they are not answering the calls to me. Would not use again avoid

A warm and friendly welcome was followed by very tasty meals. I cannot understand some of the negative comments for this restaurant; the staff and food (especially the lamb achari bhuna) deserve better recognition. We will definitely return.

While the service was very good unfortunately the food quality was very poor. Even the basic dishes were either overcooked or unrecognisable from normal Indian meals.

We thought we would treat ourselves, even though the prices have recently been increased. It took over an hour for our food to arrive. I ordered a chicken biryani as this is my favourite meal and I knew what to expect. However, the rice was really spicy which is unusual for this dish, but the worst part was that the chicken was full of gristle and inedible. I called and complained to the restaurant and they said the biryani would be free the next time we ordered a take away from them. Needless to say we will not be ordering from them again. Such a shame as the quality of food over the years has been consistently good.

terrible service.. they used to be good but no more now .. have ordered a delivery last week and food was terrible, cold and got it after almost 2 hours i’ve ordered it !! got overcharged 5 pounds extra, when i called in they said they made a mistake, that was last time for me, i wouldn’t recommend this place

We have been very well received by the owner Junaid who provided us with impeccable service. The food was also lovely. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for quality and affordable Indian cuisine.

Clean and delicious, first time trying, and won't be the last, bang on time too. Well done.

Well worth a visit. Delicious food and very friendly efficient service. Would definitely return if in the area.

I under stand its new yr eves. I ordered at 6.30 the guy on the phone said 30-40mins. I came to collect my takeaway at 7.15 ish and still had wait a further hr in the restaurant for my takeaway. There was no mask wearing by any of the staff and delivery driver's. There was more and more people waiting for food in the restaurant. One gentleman got bored of standing and pulled a chair out. Albeit the food was good and we enjoyed it eventually.
