takaa tak, Hounslow in Hounslow

Very authentic and traditional tasty food. Great dishes and super delicious. Simple decor but a nice place overall. If at Heathrow on a stopover or short visit then well worth a visit for some good Indian cuisine.

Stopped here by chance for dinner. Busy on a Monday evening. Staff were friendly and pleasant. Good service. Clean. I had the Awadhi Chicken Tikka Biryani with Kuchumber Raita and a Coke Zero to drink. The food was very nice but the biryani had a slight ghee taste. The biryani was very spicy but the one girl was kind to tell me when I ordered but I was fine with it. Nice with the raita which added a little sweetness. The complimentary poppadoms and condiments were nice too. I would have ordered more but as one person, this was difficult. I would suggest if you are with others to order a variety of dishes and share, so you can try more. I ended up taking the rest of the biryani back home to eat the next day. Portion sizes are generous. Despite how busy they were, service was efficient and food came out quickly. Freshly made and well presented.

Sehaj the server was professional so helpful ,amazing service from him the diamond management have found .We would like Sehaj serve our table next time we go. We have been going to this restaurant since it opened, Always for special occasions ,tried others but TakaTaak no one can beat. I pre booked to make sure we got a table. Food was excellent as ever I am giving 1 star for atmosphere for last night ,Its nothing to do with restaurant or management who do not want to turn away customers. But they should SERIUOSLY CONSIDER option of quiet dining for adults ,who wish to have meal and conversation Last night a screaming non stop toddler was a nightmare, even i wanted to scream out loud to make it stop, I had tears as got such severe headache as the toddler screamed non stop for the 2 hours we were there. My blood pressure went sky high trying to stay calm had to come home earlier and try and rest in peace and quiet. Its not fair or acceptable on others who went out to have a relaxing dinner. The owner managers were present as always but they did not care about the 50+ other guests diners who paid good money to relax and enjoy their evening out. One of the managers should have informed the parents of the distress caused to others. But this one family was favoured . .

I have been to the restaurant several times over the years. Food is very tasty and authentic Indian food unlike many out there. In fact, I recently took their catering service - they were very flexible with the menu, extremely competitive on price, delivered the order on time and all guests loved the food. It is my go-to-restauant for family dinners or party orders. Highly recommended!

The food is not only flavorful and satisfying, but it is also offered at a very reasonable price, making it a great value for anyone looking to enjoy a delicious meal.

Chicken smells like fish and late service take a lot of time to give food, momos are not boiled properly hard as stone and I asked for cold coke and they gave me warm coke. Gol gappe taste expired. The only nice thing about this restaurant is the water and poppadoms.

Out of 5 days in London we were here 3 times. We tried different dishes and were impressed every time. I have never eaten such delicious Indian food. Highly recommended!

BEST INDIAN FOOD EVER!!! Just went here for lunch with my husband. We’re staying at the Marriott just down the street. We were recommended a different Indian restaurant within walking distance from our hotel, however upon arrival we found it was closed until 5pm (as many Indian restaurants do). So we did a quick search of nearby Indian restaurants (because now I had my heart set on it) and found that there are TONS to choose from. We chose this one because it had indoor seating. We were the second customers in the dining room. It’s clean and nicely decorated. We ordered the garlic naan, some samosas, I ordered the Korma chicken and my husband ordered the Tikka chicken. We ordered a bowl of basmati rice on the side. It doesn’t come with rice, but the bowl is very big, more than enough for 2 people, and only £3.50. Everything was so delicious! I feel like that was the best samosa I’ve ever had! My korma chicken was so delicious! I was almost able to eat all of it. That’s probably the most I’ve been able to eat in an Indian restaurant! I dipped my naan in the curry sauce. It was sweet and creamy. Absolutely perfect in every way! I’m coming back to London in a year and I’m definitely coming back to this restaurant again.

One of the good Indian restaurant i have been too. Just love the food and the vibe. love the staff here. Shalini one of the restaurant host is so welcoming and is sweet and friendly, always makes us feel comfortable. Shubert great customer service and makes a point we are at easy. Not to forget Raggio he is excellent!!!

Chicken lollipops were overcooked and size way way bigger than normal.

I have lived in Hounslow for many years. And although I have walked passed Takaa Tak everyday. I had never actually been inside. But today my pregnant wife decided that she was craving Butter Chicken. And I decided I would give Takaa Tak a try. I have heard many good reviews from my friends. And I have also seen many family's have there wedding/birthday party's there too. So I was expecting it to be half decent. I rang in before hand and asked if we could reserve a table and sit somewhere quiet. And when we got there, the waitress was first going to sit me with the other diners, but when I told her about my call, she kindly sat us in the complete opposite end of the restaurant, where it was very private and very quiet. The same waitress then served us all evening. She made sure we was happy and catered to our every need. When the food came it lived up to the hype. My pregnant wife loved the Butter Chicken. She kept commenting on how the smells and taste were so amazing. We even asked the waitress for some items not listed on the menu, and she was happy to oblige and made us both feel very welcome. So overall my first experience at Takaa Tak was very good. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was great. But what made it extra special and makes me want to come back was the service from the waitress. I wish I got her names but she was 10/10 and she did the whole Takaa Tak team proud. Thank you to everyone. We will definitely be coming again. And also, anytime I walk past the restaurant now, I will remember with fond memories. Keep up the great work!!!

We were warmly welcomed by Raggio who took our orders.Very appetising and aromatic Khorma and Masala dishes.Open and bright restaurant with a pleasant ambiance.Thank you.I have already recommended you to brother.My wife and I would return soon.

Three of us gone for dinner in this restaurant on a weekday, Staff welcome us and offered a table, I ask my friend Chef Roiston ( On the Right side with white shirt on this photo) to order Mix: Grill, The best Mix Grill I ever had in Hounslow West , Also we had Chicken Biryani & Mutton curry Taste & Quality was excellent, I will recommend this restaurants for families or solo clients. Thanks to Mr Roiston stands lovely dinner for our friend Mr Ravi Terence visit UK with his band

I had gone to the restaurant with my family, and we were 3 all together, and we are regular visitors over there. This time they had served papadam, not soggy. We ordered our food, and then the food arrived. No one came because my fork dropped. I asked if I could get another fork; she didn't bring it. The fork told me to take it from another table. When they were keeping the plate, they told me to place the plate because she couldn't place it later on. Food arrived even though the placement was okay. We want to try various foods, so we ordered fried rice, calamari, gobi mango, butter chicken, butter garlic nun, chicken biryani, and chicken mango. The chicken biryani was so dry, no gravy was tasting how it meant to taste. We ordered chicken manchurian every time it was really made horribly bland, no taste was watery, and the worst chicken manchurian ever had. No one came to ask how the food the food was, why we didn't eat chicken biryani, chicken manchurian, calamari, and manchurian we ate. No one came to collect it or to clear the table; we had to clear the table and put it on the other table by ourselves. We asked for containers later, then ordered one dessert, and three waiters to do different things, like, even when we paid and left, they didn't even say anything. We didn't feel welcomed, or at the end, we didn't feel happy. We did take out of all food, accept gobi manchurian and calamari, and the bill was more than £80. I don't know why I'm paying for the service charge when we cleared the table ourselves, and in the end we were not happy.

Food was actually delicious. The reason for the bad review is due to the ambiance. There’s a group of men here celebrating a birthday and they’re extremely loud & were able to have access to the music so they are BLASTING it. I am unable to hear my boyfriend who is sitting in front of me unless I SHOUT at him. There are other customers here as well. Why are we subjected to this? So inconsiderate. We were also made to sit super close to the group when there was a bunch of seats elsewhere. Will go somewhere else next time. Would not recommend unless you do take out. EDIT: We left early and took our food to-go because now they kept whistling over and over to get the attention of the staff. They and the music were so loud that they had to resort to whistling. Awful experience.

Highly recommended and authentic Indian food delight… A must visit..

Having landed from a trip abroad and craving some authentic Indian, we settled on Takaa Tak amongst the many restaurants in Hounslow. And we did not regret it. Every dish that we ordered was spot on in terms of quantity and taste. Tried the Goan Xacuti chicken alongside Indo-Chinese dishes. Authentic taste in every bite. Service could have been a bit more personal and warm. But no complaints about the food. Eventually had to take away leftovers for the next day.

The naans delivered were burnt to a crisp on the underside and hard as nails. Whole meal was ruined by the naans.

When I’m travelling with work, I like to try something new from wherever I go. The Goan Xacuti Chicken caught my eye and it was superb. Wonderful flavours and pairs very well with a chilli garlic naan. Service was great too. Will certainly return when I am next in the area.

Went on the 19th August, kebabs were OK but chicken was undercooked. However the bigger problem is that I've been ill since my visit. Recently came back from the doctors and turns out I have salmonella poisoning. The only place I could have got it was from here. Definitely never going to come back

I had the absolute pleasure of celebrating my birthday at Takaa Tak, and I can't rave enough about how amazing the experience was! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the staff, who made us feel incredibly welcome with their warm smiles and hospitality. The food was exceptional! Every dish was filled with flavor and beautifully presented.The portions were generous, and each plate was nicely presented.A big thanks to the chef's who truly outdid themselves, as each bite was a testament to the care that went into making everything taste amazing. The taste was simply unforgettable! The service throughout the evening was excellent. Shubert, Deepti, Altamas, Shalini, Jaspreet were all attentive, ensuring our glasses were never empty and that we had everything we needed. They were not only efficient but also genuinely friendly, adding a personal touch to the entire evening. They made sure my birthday felt special from start to finish. One of the best moments was when I cut the birthday cake. While we brought the cake ourselves, the staff went out of their way to make it special by playing the perfect birthday background music, which really enhanced the celebratory atmosphere. It was such a thoughtful touch and made the moment feel truly magical. A huge thank you to Shubert, Jaspreet, Deepti, Shalini, and Altamas for making my birthday so memorable! If you're looking for a place with top-notch food, exceptional service, and a welcoming ambiance, I highly recommend Takaa Tak. They know how to make a special occasion feel extraordinary.

Food was split in the bag, oil was everywhere. Took them over an hour to get things prepared, failed to update us on the app when the driver was apparently coming then when we called them for a update after an hour of waiting for our food they said they needed to contact the driver and doing a lot of back and forth. Finally food came after the lady messing with the online order and putting it straight through to your food has been delivered when it never did.

It was unparalleled, will definitely be back!

Yummy indian food..cant go wrong with takaatak.

Overly spicy schezchuan noodles and salty hot sour soup...where were the vegetables?! Chips were dry and a few burnt. Definetly not Takaa Tak standard so slightly disappointed.

Awful service, brought naan bred and 10 min later chicken Curry arrived . We had to constantly chase the staff for the service. 2 ladies running around attending to everyone. They had audacity to put service charges. Stressful experience Avoid

Mix grill was not fresh and food was not delicious.

Ambience is really good, service is fast, but Mojito & Karahi Paneer needs improvement.

Amazing food, one of my favourite Indian restaurants. Love the chilli paneer and butter chicken.

From a family who visited India five times - the most genuine Indian food we've found not in India. The best. Look no further.

We stumbled across this place after parking free of charge on a Saturday at Hounslow West tube station and travelling into Covent Garden for the day. The best curry we have ever eaten! Delicious, fresh food and great tentative service and staff. Great find and will remember if we ever go back

Very Nice Indian Restaurant Pure Indian taste 👌

Lovely place with good customer service and tasty food.

Vegetarian korma was huge, tasty, heterogeneous, every bite was different.

Uncooked food .. Absolutely unacceptable..

This place is located @ Hounslow West high-street great for Indian and indo Chinese cuisine, never disappointed with food and service. They even serve alcohol beverages. Family friendly and lovely ambience

The food was very good lots of flavours

It took them 50 mins to serve food at the table. Wait time is too much.! I was really disappointed with the taste of the food. Soya chap was soft and well cooked but it hardly had any flavour. It was bland…not upto the mark. Chole bhature was okay.! Overall not worth visiting again

GOOD FOOD VERY GOOD Customer service..

Good Indian food and great service but a less sitting arrangements

Food here is very good and tasty

Was served by a lovely gentleman, Altmash. Very friendly, kind and great service. Food to match - will be coming back for sure.

Altmash provided an excellent service

Delicious and impeccable service. 3 French Canadians visiting London impressed by this Indian cuisine. All the food was exquisite.

Every thing was fabulous the kulfi very good

I order food on 8:05 pm for delivery from them. It took more than 2 hours for deliver my order. It's better not to order delivery from them.

Don’t order online from here they are lier i order some food and said that dont put spicy but they still make too much spicy and delivery my food in. 1 hour

Just fantastic, wife loved it soo much she eat more than I did.... and that's saying something! But really, the dood was excellent 👌

Had chilli garlic chicken fried rice and chilli garlic chicken, very bad, so sad, never take indo chinese from this Taka tak, worst

This place looks inviting but once you step inside, the waiter does not even to show you to your table. Then we saw the half eaten food of the customers and the insane amount of food colouring on the meat and decided to leave . Just another place that exploits the vulnerable and teys to make a profit by serving terrible food.

There was a piece if chicken in my vegetarian dish

Piece of chicken found in my vegitarian starter #takatak #hounslow

Completely blown away by this wonderful and unassuming restaurant. I'm only back in the country for a short trip, staying just down the road and stumbled across Takaa Tak last night purely because it was close by and quite late after I landed. I can honestly say, I really don't think I've ever had the pleasure of tasting Indian food that is this good, in all of my travels. So much so, I returned for a second night in a row, tonight. Thank you so much to Jaspreet and the rest of the team - your service was faultless throughout our meal. What an amazing and friendly atmosphere you have all created. Truly a great place to spend a Friday evening. I can't wait to return when I'm next in London. Thank you 😊

Great place to eat. Really good flavours and will adjust spice to your liking.

I have been a regular customer for years and every time I dine in or order take away the food is consistent and the service is 5 star surprisingly the owner is also called harpreet we are after all brown munde

The Indian food part of the menu is quite good but very spicy despite me specifying on the order and via a phone call to make the food mild (so that our kids could eat it). Ordered twice this week and the Indian food was very very spicy both times. The indo-chinese was not spicy on the other hand (and very tasty). All in all felt they could have communicated better regarding not being able to make certain dishes mild, then i could have chosen not to order those.

Thanks for best food again and serives to best one of the bar person saline N amazing serives Food Was as best from my last vist in Nov thanks to dipti.silvester

Have ordered take away plenty of time but this was my first eat in. Silvester made our visit special, so attentive and always at hand when we needed him. The menu is extensive and caters for all. The food is so good! Plenty of veg/non veg options and the portion sizes are perfect. Just be sure to let staff know if you can't handle heat, some dishes are fiery! All in all, a very pleasant meal here, Takaa Tak did not disappoint.

Great Food and good service. Shalini is the best , she took care of us and ensured we are enjoying and are well taken care off . Kudos to the team

Great food, highly recommend the chicken 65. The staff are great and attentive. We have been regulars for years.

This place is amazing to visit food and is amazing. For some reason, service was a bit slow. This great people to go with family.

Little less than expected. I heard my friends telling me that this place is must try one. I agree and I also agree that everyone has a different taste and choices. Service was excellent. I felt the soup was not as expected.

This place was recommended by a work colleague. I was so impressed I told my parents to book it for a chunni ceremony. Booking for 70. Honestly it's been a while since I received such great service, honesty and so accommodating. Even our kids were well feed. Kids meals were a treat. Thank you so much. Looking forward to booking with you again 😀 Bhullar family

Nice place for outing, food and drinks. Good service...

Great food and good portion size

Excellent customer service 👏 Very tasty food 😋 Best restaurant 😋

Thank you Dipti and Altmash and all the fabulous staff at this wonderful place. Visited for dinner on Friday and can’t praise it enough. Delicious tasty food served by wonderful friendly staff. We had a huge variety of dishes, starters, mains and puds… all exceptional. It was our first visit and are already planning our return with our daughter!

Lovely place opposite Hounslow West underground station. Had gone out on New Year’s Eve. If you’re going on weekend you’ll find free parking at the station. Table was booked in advance so got a place to sit without waiting. We wanted Indian cuisine, tried chicken crispy, chicken lollipop, for starters, would say they were average. For drinks we tried mocktails such as Pina colada, Mojito and rose wine. Well made. Also tried mango lassi, very nice. We tried the Indo Chinese manchow soup, was fine. For main course we tried lamb and veg biryani, would say quite average for the price they charge. Tried Ras malai, too flavoured but soft. Bill includes service chgs. Service was good considering the festive rush. Good ambience and good capacity for tables. Overall a good experience.

Altamash, the guy as a waiter, was really good at his job. Love the food. Was there for Birthday Party of a small one, they played the music for the toddler and the full restaurant was cheering up for him

Love it here, service is always quick and it’s my favourite place to go for authentic food in the area. Highly recommend!

Great food and wonderful people. Love this place close to LHR.

Went to Takaa tak after a while and was not disappointed....had soups (hot &sour, manchou and chicken & sweet corn) , chicken kharai and railway lamb dishes....staff were very helpful and happy to be of service which really made the visit worthwhile.....high become d a try.

First visit and I can say the food was really tasty. The service was great. Definitely will visit again

It used to be good food but now no taste. Wait time is too long. Before we loved it even we have to drive for more than 1h 30 mins but now it’s not good taste.

Packed by 8pm. That tells you all you need to know. It's good.

Am a regular customer and am always order takeaway and always something missing and I always thought will give review but I thought leave it but yesterday I ordered veg manchow soup and I request To don’t do hot less soya sauce less salt but as usual they make the way they making, was very hot spicy dark salty full of garlic no other veg in it and this hapin with me more than ten times, I always complain and they sed from next time we will not give you chance for complain but always hapin, they don’t lisin how you want your food only taking order that’s itam ver disappoint 😔 please lisin to your customer choice how they want , thanks

Delivery person was so professional and the food was on point with all requested request fulfilled best service till date

Poor service. Food very moderate. Not recommended complete disappointment, looking after only specific people not treating everyone equally. Particularly the guy in the till very rude. Dont get disappointed like me by just looking reviews.

Good food, very friendly and accomodating staff. We were a big group with 3 vegans, and they tried their best to help us out.

Used to be the best Indian restaurant but the old owners sold it and thr new owners ruining the food which is a shame

Jedzenie było smaczne, ale oznaczenie ostrości 1/3 jest trochę mylące, bo dla mnie 1 było już ostre. Ryż był chłodny, mięso w sosie bardzo smaczne (bardzo pikantne!) sala dość tłoczna, ciężko się zrelaksować. Ogólnie polecam jeśli ktoś lubi dobrą kuchnie indyjska.

Thanks a million to all staff make my day off happy ..its been 11 months I dint vist this place .. price is change but it fair as economic growth n all rest service standards never gone down I can say 15% up

I did my few parties . it was so on point. All the events well. Staff is brilliant. Fool always so yummy

Ordered a takeaway after hearing a good word from a friend but was very disappointed ☹️ The food is below average, dosent taste like authentic spices but more like cheap commercial spices or ingredients used. Chicken curry was just too spicy with clear flavour of red chilly added to base sauce and the biryani was probably the lowest quality I have ever tasted (went straight to bin unfortunately as it was not at all upto the mark). Sorry but has high expectations as I heard this branch is always busy and food is good!

Good food and drinks but the atmosphere is so chaotic and hectic. The customer service was so bad, they did not listen to us at all and don’t even know what they’re doing. One guy rolled his eyes when we asked for drinks.

Awsome Experience with Mr Altmash. God bless him. Only because of him resturant running. He is most dedicated staff in resturant

What a great place for some authentic Indian food. We were looking for great food and we found it!

Tak a Tak in Hounslow West is a culinary gem! The aromatic spices and rich flavors of their Indian dishes are unparalleled. From buttery naan to flavorful curries, every bite is a delight. The warm ambiance and friendly staff enhance the dining experience. A must-visit for Indian cuisine lovers!

Great food but a long wait. Highly recommended

I love the food of takaa tak, that's so nice. But I'll give ONE star because of a waiter 'silvester' Rest of the staff was nice.

Everything was nice, Food was amazing but the waiter ‘Silvester’ was so rude. Teach him some manners how to deal with customers.

Late by 30 minutes. Taste of Gajar Halwa is worst not as expected. Kulfi as usual tastes from manufacturers. Worst experience and I got 1 kulfi as complimentary which I haven’t requested.

This place was a tip from a taxi driver a few months ago - great tip - fab pani puri, excellent mixed grill, aloo tikki chaat was exceptional. Will come again

The food is delicious, I had the cauliflower bits from the starter menu . Great potions size. My cocktail was lovely. The staff are very welcoming & always have a smile on their face. And the owner is nice. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. I came from Bedfordshire & will go back. Some parking outside restaurant, you may be lucky to get 1, but I think there is a paying car park nearby.

The quality of the food frankly appalling! The chicken in our mains was manky and brown.. The potato in our Bombay aloo was disgusting and should have been thrown out not served to customers. Never again !

Simply awful. The quality of the food frankly appalling! The chicken in our mains was manky and brown.. The potato in our Bombay aloo was disgusting and should have been thrown out not served to customers. Never again !

Heerlijk gegeten! De glutenvrije lamscurry was botermals en tandoori chicken ook! Bediening erg vriendelijk en denkt mee voor wat betreft de dieetwensen! We gaan deze week zeker nog een keer langs!

Located in the heart of Hounslow, it hosts one of the wonderful restaurants. They have a lot of seating available but would recommend to reserve a place on weekends. They have both vegetarian and non vegetarian options, if you want to have some yummy Indian spicy food, would suggest this place.

Taste of the food is good. Service is good. Layout is heavily optimised to accommodate more crowd.. too noisy
