Lovely food, best curry I’ve had around Braintree in 2 years (I live “up north” and find the majority of curry’s around here disappointing) I’ll be back to try other dishes soon

I just LOVE the food: the tandoori mixed grill is out of this world: not your usual red coloured, slightly smoky stuff! Samosas are great tasting - in fact all dishes are in a complete different league from the usual Braintree fare!

We were told the order would be ready at 8.15pm and then we had to sit and wait for 30 minutes despite being told numerous times it was nearly ready. The restaurant wasn't busy so there was really no excuse for this. The food was nice but it didn't make up for the wait. We decided to collect as we thought this would be quicker but it really shouldn't have taken over an hour for this order.

You never get a fulll portion anymore. All the containers are half full. The madras was awful, not cooked and no sauce at all. The sauce that was there was watered down and tasteless. We called to complain but they didn't care. Their excuse was that they have a new chef. We won't be ordering again.

Ordered a couple of the Nepalese dishes, these were really lovely. My husband thought it was by far the best curry in the area. The okra was delicious. I love Napalese dishes as used to eat them growing up so is lovely to have somewhere to order from here much more fragrant and a nice level of spice. Will definitely order again.

Tied you for the first time. Mine and my father's food was excellent however for the price of £10 per curry the portions are lackluster, to say the least. The most disappointing item was my mother's Tikka Massala, we all tried and agreed it was awful, had no sweetness and the texture of the sauce was very odd indeed. Would try again but for the money I didn't think we got great value.

they gave me the wrong order - plain and simple. told me to go through just eat to get a refund. didn't want to remedy the order by sending someone out and gave me some story about how "they've run out" of a dish. fact is, i ordered 3 totally different dishes to what i got. only thing kind of similar was the curry - i wanted chicken but got veg. didn't order lamb rice, or that weird yoghurt sauce either. awful service, will never order here again.

Came Saturday for a family meal. Restaurant was very cold and staff were complaining as well! Took over an hour to serve starters. Two were missing and only turned up after everyone had finished and were luke warm. Asked for 5 mins to order mains but waited ages, then took ages to arrive all covered in copious amounts of onions. Seems takeaways take priority over restaurant diners. Not staffs fault ours! This used to be a nice restaurant but now is poor all around. Should stick to being a takeaway.

This place is so good I can almost just vote 5 stars for all and be done with it. Seriously good! I've been using them for about 8 years since they were in the old building at the top of the hill. Had multiple birthdays here, multiple takeaways (I mean a lot). I have never had one issue at all. Every time I go back I'm blown away how good the food is, I'm almost like "do I remember it being THIS good?". Not oily, not heavy, perfect flavour, great choice, one of the only restaurants that actually make the Tikka masala properly madras hot (unlike others that think you can't take it and don't even make it that hot). Staff are like friends you've always known, service is fast. Atmosphere in the new place is to a really high standard. I could be here all day. Eat here with confidence, you will NOT be disappointed. Oh and did I mention the prices are very reasonable too. 5 stars all day long! Thanks guys!!
