Taste of Bombay in Bolsover

Hi all I'm a lorry driver and placed an order here tonight. The food arrived on time it was hot with generous portions was also very tasty well worth 5 stars

Cash only in shop. Not good for business in 2024

Food was excellent,not good to hear staff arguing(really loud) in kitchen not realising i had entered the reception(no bell/ buzzer).when they realised they were very pleasent.Will deffo go back as good value for money.

A friend bought garlic chicken with extra chillies for us to try ,wow wow , far superior now with new chef, ignore reviews from 6 months ago as so much improved with new chef

First time we have tried. Very nice . Cracking spice !

Well the last two times I’ve ordered, the foods been amazing as it always is. Well tonight I’ve order via online instead of over the phone and to my surprise it’s turned out 6£ cheaper. Couldn’t tell you why but questionable indeed..

First time trying Masala Box tonight, food was incredible. You can taste the fresh chillies etc and it looked like a sit down restaurant meal on my plate. Collected and only waited a few minutes, nice talking to the friendly staff, family run business and will definitely be going back 👏🏻

Went Good Friday, ordered on phone for 6-30, we arrived just after and the food was just about ready. The food was some of the best we have had (there were eight of us) every one tried bits of everything, everyone impressed. I had the Bombay prawn biryani, excellent. Lovely people. Recommended.

Highly recommend! Very friendly staff always great service!

Didn't take card but quickly resolved food is fresh tasty and hot service was 10 /10 will return

The best Indian IV had and definitely the best onion bhajis and naan breads are amazing good service good price couldn't ask for anything better they even work Christmas day if you fancy an Indian instead of the normal Christmas dinner

*Ignore old reviews* Food is fantastic. Not sure on delivery as always collect. Everything is fresh and made to order. Loads of meat in the curries. Brilliant owners. Naan are very good. Good value

Great food. We ordered chicken tikka kebab and it was delicious, well flavoured chicken and lovely naan. We visited in the past and were glad we tried it again. We will be back for more. Ps, now reamed as Masala box.

Ordered lamb vindaloo and absolutely loved it. It was hot and spicy as I liked it and the service was very good.

Been going here for a few years now and I love the food. Its always hot and they are so accommodating. Great friendly atmosphere when collecting food also.

Fantastic takeaway. I ordered off just eat to collect, they phoned me to check an item on my delivery, so I got the correct item. It was ready at the agreed time for me to collect, the staff were very polite and chatty. The meal was very nice, especially the onion bhaji. It was still lovely and warm when I got it home. I will be going again and will recommend to friends. Thank you

Fantastic takeaway. Ready to collect at agreed time. Still lovely and warm when I got home. Very nice meal especially the onion bhaji. Thank you

Quick delivery. Arrived still hot, garlic naan very burnt & plain tasting. Korma sauce very watery, chicken in both meals still a little pink. Not overly impressed as was told it was beautiful food now since changing chefs. Won't be ordering again..

Lovely food,nice atmosphere, price valued for meals. It's nice new place in this area 🥳 We back with sure 😋

Takes too long to come never a gaing

Order collected… told I had to pay cash but they had just taken an order with card payment over the phone! Very rude and just pointed in the direction of the cash point! Online ordering offers 20% off but it wouldn’t allow me to order and they refused to honour the discount. Rude, unfriendly staff and looking into the kitchen it’s absolutely filthy!

Ordered over just eat app so paid upfront. After waiting for 2 hours I called the take away to see where my delivery was. Their response was rude and abrupt and told me if I wanted my order I would have to come and collect. I informed them I had 2 small children in bed and I couldn’t. They continued to say I had to collect so I cancelled my order. A hour later they tried to deliver at half past 11 at night. I informed the driver I’d cancelled the order over an hour ago and sent it back. They then had the cheek to mark it as delivered on just eat. Still awaiting my refund 4 weeks on.

Ordered over the phone waited 2hours then phoned to ask where my order was told 15 mins, 30 mins later and the order was not what I ordered. Will not order from here again, used to be the best Indian around

Ordered online via just eat. Waited an hour and a half and had no communication and no food. Rang to ask and was told I had to collect. Never been the same since they were taken over. Food has gone down hill. Won’t be using again. Shame as it’s a small village and I’d like to see small businesses succeed. Would not surprise me if they are shut in 6 months !

Usually don't have an order when placing order via just eat. Placed an order today for cash on delivery directly with 90 minute wait. It never turned up and nobody picking up the phone to explain why.

Delivery time is usually an hour, I understand it is a busy time period due to opening at 5. However, I have now waited 2 hours for my meal and can't get into contact with the restaurant

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED I do not recommend at all. I place an order at 9.30 pm and recieved order confirmation within a couple of minutes stating that they will start preparing my order as soon as possible and that they had taken the money out of my bank. . However, i was very disappointed as it got to 11.30pm and my order still hadnt arrived. The restaurant itself shuts at 10.30pm so i decided to ring them. After ringing the restaurant around 20 times i had no reply as the call kept going through to voicemail. At the end of it all, i am £30 out of pocket and have no food. This is absolutely appauling. Do not recommend at all.

Previously ordered from this takeaway once a week atleast until the last two times our order has been accepted, we have paid, waited and no order has arrived! Always recommended this takeaway when friends and family asked which Indian takeaway was the best. Absolutely appalling service. To think we actually thought it was a one off and ordered again tonight, to not receive anything!

Not bad. Ordered through uber. Food arrived 45 min earlier than scheduled. Some of the order was messed up but the actual food wasn't bad. Will try again to see if its improved.

We live down the road from here and use them regularly, at least twice a month if not more. The curries are wonderful. We're huge fans of all the food from here. The mixed kebab is another personal favourite. As we live a minutes walk away, can't comment on delivery. Will always recommend this place!

Would give a 0 if possible…order food before 5 as a pre order and told it would be delivered at 6:15 long time for a preorder on a Tuesday night okay. At 6:30 I ring up to chase the order and told it was out for delivery now…another 30 minutes and the order arrives. When opening the bag to get the food out 2 containers with liquid sauce have leaked absolutely everywhere but not only that the entire order was wrong! So another customer must be having the same issue as us! After waiting 2 hours since ordering understandably we don’t want our food now just a refund. However that seems to incomprehensible to everyone involved multiple offers of free food next time we order?! Why would I order again and how do we know that promise is going to be kept when the only thing I have repeatedly asked for a refund it has not been given! Between multiple people in the store and the delivery driver the phone has been passed between them all yet no conclusive has been reached. I will continue to ring up and go into the store until I get my refund I have paid £30 for a service that has not been provided! I don’t often post reviews but this has got me so angry and thing it’s disgusting behaviour to just brush paying customers off!

Ordered my takeaway at 5pm, didn’t arrive until 7pm and had to meet the delivery driver as he couldn’t find the house. When it did arrive, the order was incorrect and spilt all over the bag. Rang up to complain and the woman couldn’t understand a word I said so had to send the delivery driver back to speak to speak to me! That never happened so I chased them again. They refused to provide me with a refund for £30 worth of food I didn’t receive. STAY CLEAR.

Disappointing! Used to be one of the best! Now it’s been taken over it’s one of the worse. Hate saying it, but true!

1 /1/22 had a takeaway tonight was disappointed not got what was ordered the standard was poor have they been taken over recently

We were so happy with our takeaway. I initially rang to place the order and the chef noted the order but struggled a little to understand. A few minutes later a guy rang back to confirm the order and he was very professional and welcoming. The order arrived on time. We noted upon serving that the naan was missing, and before we could ring, the delivery man was back with it. The food was delicious and the the staff super helpful! Couldn’t ask more from a village takeaway. Thanks!

Ordered onion basis which were very very greasy. Chicken Tikka Masala was a very bright red colour and had lots of coconut in it. Never had chicken ticks masssla like it before. Very very sweet and horrid. Husband couldn't eat it so complete waste of money. Have used them before and was fine but tonight disgusting

Had from here a couple of times now and the food has been great.. the mixed kebab with tomato and garlic sauce was the best kebab ive ever had :D

Really tasty food , delivered on time , hot and fresh

Excellent quality cooked quickly very tasty

Ordered on just eat, said it would be delivered for 6:30 but they decided to ring 15 minutes before it should arrive to say they have no drivers and that they would cancel the order. Very disappointed

The food here is wonderful! This is out Indian takeaway of choice. The lamb is very lean and tender and not fatty or chewy. Definitely recommend this place 👍

Moved to Tibshelf a year ago but hadn't tried the local Indian as it didn't look very inviting from outside, however last weeks snow forced us to stay local and how pleased we were! Ordered two starters, curries, rice and naan and all were fabulous, cooked fresh, delivered hot and 20 minutes early, which for a Saturday evening was amazing service. Will definitely be using regularly from now on.

No card cash only food not that great

Piss poor never ever again food was disappointing do NOT ORDER FROM THEM BEEN TO HOSPITAL FOR FOOD POISONING

Great food every time ive been, really friendly in there too

Rang last week to let them know that when we got home and put food out the chicken madras was watery and that the rest of our £30 order was ok. Man on phone said he would replace the madras when we went in again. Today, when we returned and gave them more business, he denied that there would have been a problem with the madras, that it is meant to be runny (!). Eventually he allowed us the refund of the cost of the madras - through gritted teeth. Lack of customer service skills I believe.

Been using here for 6 years. Will no be using again after last night. After ordering £35 worth of food for delivery then taking over two hour to arrive imagine the disappointment in all our food having a strong soapy taste. We couldn't eat any it was disgusting. Upon ringing manager he got very angry called me a liar said he tastes every single food item he sends out. Hmmmm. Then called me a liar and got aggressive. That's a regular customer you lost and a complaint to council you horrid abusive man.

Food was late, when I called to ask where it was the owner was extremely rude and basically told me to like it or lump it. When the food did arrive it was all spilled out inside the bag and cold. When I called and asked for a refund and to collect it I was told to f*%k off and contact just eat! Vile place.

Absolutely terrible service and communication. Food was never delivered and my money was taken. Restaurant refused to speak to me regarding my request for a refund and told me they did not want to discuss it and hung up. Luckily I used Just Eat who were very helpful and got me my refund eventually. Waited over 4 hours and called them to confirm 3 times, 2 of those times my order ‘was minutes away.’ Appalling service. Will never order again which is a shame as it was our regular local Indian. Please consider this before you order from here!! No food is worth that hassle. We will be using elsewhere in future. I hope the man on the phone at the restaurant (assuming management) I spoke to learns some manners and customer service skills soon. Disgusting. :(

We ordered 2 meals there was so much sauce you could have put both meat together to make one meal chips only just warm Not going to order again

Rude obnoxious owner and rude staff 45 mins late with delivery called up to cancel order but was sworn at and verbally abused to be told you will have to f ing wait when food finally arrived I refused delivery as I'm not being treat like this and paying for the privilige

Usually have a lovely meal from here but on this occasion had four different rice's and when arrived they where not warm at all and had a garlic naan bread.when called to tell them about my order ,the attitude wasn't nice at all.not very happy

Absolutely stunning food one of the best indians weve had. Only downside was a long wait but worth it. Best keema rice ever 👍👍

Rude and arogant staff even after nice compliments and tip . Swearing and laughing while we leaving premises .

One of nicest deliveries weve had lovelly.

Always found food excellent with generous portions. Unlike a lot of takeaways each dish is different rather than a hotter/milder variation of a basic sauce. Can't comment on delivery

DO NOT EAT HERE! staff are awful. We had a delivery done by them and it arrive wrong. We tried phoning the place 40 times and each time it went to VM. In the end we got in the car with our curry and drove there. On arrival we explained that the order was wrong and could they make a new one as the whole order was now cold. They refused saying there was nothing wrong with it. We explained again that the order had been wrong and as we had driven to them the whole meal was now cold. They refused to cook us a fresh meal so we were left without a curry as the owner began to get aggressive and even rose his hand to me. All after paying for the meal and delivery and even tipping the driver. DON'T RISK THE WASTE OF MONEY!

Curry's are really nice owner a complete nutter who doesn't deserve to be in business Delivery till 10.3p but they send driver home at 8.30pm because its quite. Then when I was told delivery about 1 hour (this is 7.30pm)still waiting at 9.45pm Ower then put phone down on me Avoid complete arse hole

all your standard curries and lots of dishes I have not seen elsewhere.

Complete waste of money, I might as well have payed a few quid for a frozen microwave curry at Iceland, next time I’ll just cook myself.

Onion bhaji swimming in grease and completely tasteless. Nann bread thick and stodgy. Keema rice, over cooked and hard, 1st and last time we use these. On a whole, £26 wasted.

From king prawn dhansak to king prawn masala this takeaway hits all the right flavours.Plus I couldn't fault the guy who takes the orders, he remembers exactly what you've ordered from the last weekend.I don't know about you but I have a job remembering what I did two days ago. That's real devotion to your job. I can strongly recommend the bombay aloo ( Indian spiced potatoes), cheese and garlic naan, peshwari naan and my brother and mum inform me the chicken tikka masala is to die for. I'm a pescetarian so I'll have to take their word for that! I live in Essex but to eat such delicious fare it would be well worth the 300 mile round journey. If you like Indian type cuisine this is one takeaway you need to visit, preferably more than once.

Nice food crazy owner good delivery driver for a man with spike in chin

Uncooked chicken in korma. Disgusting. Wouldn't go there again after that.

Really nice food...only problem is every time I order there's something missing...they need to double check before sending it out or the delivery driver is eating it on the way...either way sort it as I'm down about £7 altogether now

Typical takeaway indian, you get your standard stuff, it's all very cheap and tastes great. Ingredients used are all good quality. I can only speak for the hot curries as that's all I eat. However, their Shatkora, Vindaloo, Naga, Jalfrezi, are all very good.

well i have used these 5 times and up to now it has been great . But last night we had one and my daughter said it did not taste right . she left hers but me and her dad ate ours. sorry to say we have been up all night not well at all thats all i am going to say . will not be using them again .

below average as a whole and trys to over charge you if your not careful

Order from here regularly it's the best Indian takeaway in the area!!
