The new management have not only improved the appearance of the place but the food is now first class. Amongst the best Indian food we have had anywhere - well done!

Just fantastic! Cannot find any fault at all... My experience here was 'wow', haven't experienced such fabulous food, for such a long time. Quick service, really brilliant, friendly staff who were so attentive.. Good portions. As part of the opening event we were entertained by the 'in house' magician...so good to see this lovely restaurant doing so well, l previously visited the 3 Elephants when it was The Tamarind.. Equally great restaurant then but was very quiet.. Well done to you all, you'll be seeing a lot more of me. Good luck for the future.

Just had our first takeaway from Three Elephants, Llandevaud. We had the Shazam Murgh and the chicken kurma. Absolutely delicious! The chicken was so tender. Highly recommended! Oh yes, and the delivery driver was one of the smartest dressed ever!

Under new Management about two weeks ago. Now the Three Elephants. Food, service and staff all good. Friendly staff. Despite mistakes on a few drinks, quickly resolved the experience was great. Food options plentiful and portions large. Will definitely go again. Well done staff for a great experience. Cost for a 2 course with drinks and condiments circa £79.

Food was fantastic, the beef & lamb were great, both very tender. Only reason I gave 3 stars to delivery service as it took 1hr 20 mins and we ordered at opening. A couple of dishes were cold. We will definitely use this place for Indian takeaways, just hope they can get better on delivery times and ensuring food is hot.

Food was perfectly cooked and delicious, had a choice of meals that varied in heat and spicyness and menu also catered for individuals who don't eat Indian food themselves but like to eat out with friends and family. Staff were polite, friendly and had a high standard in serving etiquette. Had a very enjoyable evening and will certainly be back to sample other items on the menu.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We tried Three Elephants tonight for dinner and the food was perfect. The onion bhaji's were nice and crispy. We had a karahi Mangsho Aloo and a the chana Aloo chat both were very tasty and the meat was very tender. We found the service first class and will definitely be back.

This place has shut down!! Be aware this is appalling, their website still let's you put ordered in and takes your money be aware! I waited 1.5hours for my order to arrive (including food for my niece who is only 8years old and very hungry) only to be told when I called up the restaurant is closed down until 3rd September and they are going to be called something different! I'm still owed over £106 from my order that didn't turn up!!

What a wonderful find. We were staying local and decided to dine here, we are so glad we did. The staff were so welcoming, we even had a tour of the rest of the restaurant which has 250 covers all of which was beautifully decorated with ample space between tables. Both myself and husband had poppadoms and pickle tray whilst we viewed the extensive menu. We had starters of shami kebab and tandoori fry, both delicious. For mains I had the Bombay beef which was very well spiced and the beef very tender. My husband had lamb pathia which he said was one of the best he had tasted, all food was delivered hot. Ahmed and his team should be very proud of their restaurant, well done! If you want a delicious meal with plenty of parking and great service I definitely recommend dining here.

Had a couple of nice meals then went down hill. Really cold in the restaurant, had to eat meal with our coats on, then ordered a delivery which turned up 2 hours late and cold, they sent another out and that wasn't much better. To top it all the manager lied about us having a meal to compensate as it was a birthday takeaway and he was very rude on the phone. Wouldn't recommend...

As a vegetarian Indian restaurants usually provide a good choice, but here there were only 3 choices on the main course section, 2 of which had the same description under different names! The waiter didnt seem to know what either of them were. The dish I opted for was bland and quite tasteless, and I left most of it. The naan bread was served ready cut, therefore went cold and 'crispy' very quickly. They also brought out incorrect dishes and didn't appear to know what we ordered. There was no ambience in the restaurant, it was very light and the air conditioning was blowing cold air (in February!) After this first visit I won't be returning. There are many superior Indian restaurants in the area.

6th visit but last night is likely the last, they only opened the first section and was very cold , everything was rushed as they had people waiting in the bar area, s as soon as we sat down asking if we want a pickle tray and drinks, here within a few minutes! We hadn’t finished our popadams and the starters arrived, we had finished our starters and within a few minutes our main arrived, to top it, amongst our mains, we ordered Dhansak to share which is supposed to me medium, I like my hot curry’s and this was there! A shame because the starters we all tasty! This is where we always go for a curry for all the opposite that am complaining about! Usually a dining experience but tonight nothing like that! If they want us to spend £120 there again, they are going to have to rethink their customers dining experience!

**Savoring Elegance at Gourmet Haven:** Gourmet Haven proved to be a culinary haven that transcended expectations. From the moment I entered, the elegant ambiance set the stage for a refined dining experience. The attentive staff seamlessly guided us through a gastronomic journey that left an indelible mark. The menu, a testament to culinary artistry, offered a diverse array of dishes that blended flavors with precision. The seared scallops, adorned with a delicate saffron-infused sauce, exemplified the chef's commitment to excellence. Each bite was a harmonious blend of sweetness and umami, demonstrating a mastery of culinary finesse. The main course continued to captivate the senses. The perfectly cooked filet mignon, accompanied by a velvety red wine reduction, melted in the mouth. The sides were equally impressive; the truffle-infused mashed potatoes elevated the dish to a level of indulgence rarely encountered. Service at Gourmet Haven was impeccable, with staff members displaying a deep knowledge of the menu and a genuine passion for creating a memorable dining experience. The pacing of the courses was ideal, allowing us to savor each moment without feeling rushed. In conclusion, Gourmet Haven is more than a restaurant; it's a symphony of flavors orchestrated with precision and presented in an atmosphere of refined elegance. This establishment stands as a testament to the art of fine dining, offering a culinary experience that lingers in the memory, making it a must-visit for connoisseurs seeking an unparalleled gastronomic adventure.

Visiting Wales on business and I decided to try Tamarind for a cheeky curry. This has to be the best curry I've had in several years. I had poppadoms, the tamarind mild special, peshwari naan and boiled rice. The curry was exceptional. It is chicken, lamb and mushroom. It was mild sweet and taste. Highly recommended. The staff were excellent and attentitive too. If I lived nearby it would be my regular go to.

Oh Wow! So glad I found this place, what a Gem. Every dish I tried was amazing. And I don't say this lightly. I love good curry and have been eating it for over 40 years but this place is definitely the best. For a relatively new restaurant I'm so pleased it's got a massive quality seating capacity because its going to need it. The staff were so friendly and conscientious. I would have willingly paid double the price. Everyone loved it I cannot wait to return!

Nice looking from outside. Nice seating. New year signs still hanging up in late March along with decorations from valentines night a month ago. About 4 tvs showing Bollywood films no gentle music to create an atmosphere. Food average dry chicken but cheap, asked waiter 4 times for different things. Toilets very poor no hand towels asked waiter, he give me wet wipe to dry my hands. No water on tables when asked for water they give everyone including ladies a pint glass. Staff have no or very little training including the manager . Not the best experience won’t be going back.

Food was ok but nothing that stood out. Overall there was something about our visit that you couldn't quite put your finger on, that just felt odd. Whether it was the atmosphere or something simply like one of our party (we were a mixed group) asked if we could have some water for the table. The water arrived in jug, nothing strange about that, but instead of small water glasses it came with pint glasses??? So to sum up food was ok but nothing to right home about and experience just was lacking - won't be rushing back unfortunately.

Decided to try a new takeaway as been disappointed by our usual two . Starts were okay, the mixed meat didn't have much flavour. The four curries we had were all very nice, not much meat in the pasanda and thin sauce but still tasty , all better that what we have had in local takeaways recently. Ordering online we were not given any indication of when to collect so had to call to find collection time, it was ready on arrival.

This was our second visit for a meal, and was much improved. This time they not only took our order, but checked by reading it back to us. The food was lovely and plentiful, and very enjoyable when it eventually came. This latter aspect is the only issue that they need to resolve, ie there needs to be quicker service in serving up the meals. The staff were very friendly. If they could improve the speed of serving the meals, then it would be a 5*

10/10 - Highly recommend this restaurant! This is one of the best Indian meals that myself and partner have ever had! The food was delicious, huge portion sizes (plenty to eat and take home as leftovers!) and the service was a treat! The staff was very attentive and made sure everything about our dinner was perfect-- fresh drink refills when we were running low, making sure our allergy concerns were addressed with the kitchen, and even opening doors for us upon leaving! We spoke with many of the staff throught the dinner who were all lovely and happy to answer any questions we had, including the lovely Madhobi who made sure we had everything we needed/wanted all evening! The restaurant has a very friendly vibe and you feel part of a family the moment you walk through the doors. We'll be visiting again the next time we're in the area!

Not fussed was looking forward to trying this but disappointed worst biriyani I've ever had & I've had many in my time. The huge mound of rice put me off you couldn't take it without it falling all over the table it looked like it had been packed into an oval dish then tipped onto an oval plate the same size so nowhere for the rice to go but all over the table as you served it onto your plate! I probably only ate a quarter of it the chicken was dry & not enough curry sauce with it & full of broccoli not my favourite thing with curry. On the up side the staff were very nice.

We booked a table two weeks ago, arrived and was told that no alcohol could be served due to a licencing problem so we left. On Wednesday I phoned to see if the licensing issue had been resolved and asked if they could now serve alcoholic drinks, yes was the answer, I asked if the could serve beer on tap, yes was the answer. I then proceeded to book a table 40 minutes later and then they said that they couldn't serve alcohol that night. Someone is being frugal with the truth. Two strikes and they are out. Incompetent or underhanded you decide for me I wont bother again I hate being lied to or messed about.

Here’s a food review based on your details: The dining experience here was exceptional from start to finish. The owners were brilliant, genuinely welcoming, and provided top-notch service. We requested our food to be delivered precisely at 6 pm, and they didn’t disappoint—it arrived right on time, perfectly warm and ready to enjoy. We ordered a selection of dishes that truly highlighted the kitchen’s mastery of flavor. The chicken tikka masala was rich and creamy, with tender chicken pieces that melted in your mouth. The chicken balti had just the right amount of spice, bringing a bold and aromatic kick, while the keema rice paired wonderfully with both mains, adding another layer of fragrant flavor. The garlic naan was soft, pillowy, and perfectly seasoned, ideal for scooping up every last bit of sauce. But the real star was the mint yogurt—a stunning homemade addition that elevated each dish with its refreshing, cooling touch. It was clear that a lot of care went into crafting each component of the meal. Overall, this meal was a delight, with exceptional service to match. If you’re looking for a satisfying, flavorful dining experience with flawless timing, this spot is a must-try.

Ordered food starters and main course waiter came back to check order as he had lost part of it on tablet. Starters came fairly quickly but main course came 45 minutes later and only part of order was correct asked for lamb but got chicken instead, my friends don't eat chicken there was things we didn't ask for. Lamb tikka masala we ordered was extremely tough and rubbery to eat. Very disappointed as previous visit was excellent.
