Just had our first meal from here since opening under new management. Got to say it was absolutely delicious! We had lamb tikka dansak and chicken coconut fusion which were both very nice. The mushroom bhaji was really tasty. All of the food had lots of flavour, and was still hot even after walking the 5 minutes home. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, the food was very reasonably priced compared to other takeaways, all in all a really good experience. Will definitely be eating here again. 👍🏼

the food is very basic, delivery and service cost £3.50 and the delivery time on a normal day is over 1.5 hours, in general I recommend other restaurants where it is not so expensive

The food was outstanding, under new management. It was made with so much Love. Fresh ingredients from popadums, light a crisp, bahjis wow and the curry was the perfect temperature for us. Ask and you will have exactly what you like. The chicken melted in our mouths. Flavours were amazing. New management, you won't be disappointed 🥰

If I could give minus stars I would. I ordered a delivery online, my £50 payment was taken but I got no food! After waiting an hour and a half after the expected delivery time, which was 45 minutes, and no answer or engaged tone on the phone I drove there to find the place closed up and in darkness. No sign on the door to explain why they were closed. Now I have to wait 7 days before I can raise a dispute with my bank to claim my money back and I had to spend another £50 on an alternative takeaway.

Ordered online at 7.35pm. Said delivery would be 40 minutes at 8.15pm. Tried ringing them 16 times. No answer. Now over 2 hours since order. Still no delivery. It closes in 15 minutes at 10pm. Not impressed at all. Very poor service. Won't be using them again.

Over 2 hour wait for delivery when told would be an hour. When chased order said didn't know when it would be delivered could offer refund but didn't know when we would receive it. Said we'll wait half hour later ring back up told should be 20 minutes but don't have 3 lamb tikka starter that we ordered & paid for so asked for them to be refunded & gave bank details. 45 minutes later food turns up (2 hour 15 minute total wait) then onion rice and yoghurt & mint dip missing. Rung up again & they said would refund. 3 days later still waiting for refund. Shame as been ordering for over 20 years but the customer service when issues arise is non existence and on a £65 order currently still waiting for at least £20 refund

Sadly, we had an awful meal from Balti. Very late. Items missing and what we were given was like the leftovers which is a shame as we’ve had many good meals. Probably won’t order again. Onion bhajis were inedible, mixed kebab was missing meat. £30 wasted.

Unfortunately the driver must have been a smoker and made our takeaway smell of cigarettes. He went to the wrong area which delayed our order and arrived cold. The chilli chicken wasn’t spicy at all and lacked flavour. I had asked for there to be chillis in one of the naan breads as this wasn’t an option on their menu and it wasn’t carried out.

The food arrived within 30mins of ordering which is never a good sign as the food was clearly reheated and microwaved which is exactly what it was. The curry sauce and rice were watery and bland and chicken was so dry that it was grainy, again, signs it was reheated and microwaved. The chips were cold in the middle and hard on the outside so were clearly cooked well ahead of time. The naan’s again were microwaved and the cheesy naan did not even have real cheese like other Indian takeouts instead having processed cheese sandwiched inside and warmed though enough to just start melting. The only part we really enjoyed was the popadoms but at a staggering £1 each I would expect nothing less which goes to mentioned the price. This takeout charges more than most of the local renowned curry house restaurants. If you are going to charge restaurant prices for the food, I would expect at the bare minimum it to be made to order and the fact we ordered on a quiet Sunday evening really is no excuse to do so. Unfortunately, even if the food was fresh, the price you’re paying really isn’t justified with much better options available locally for cheaper prices. Avoid.

Can't fault the lamb in the curries, probably the most consistent tender meat I've had, vindaloo is a bit hotter than most places so maybe try a madras to start with, rice portions are good and come in the larger container as opposed to the trend of others in the area that serve their rice in the smaller containers, naan bread was very anemic and would hove benefited with staying in the tandoor for another 30 seconds. My only other gripe is that it has now become very expensive and is on the border of pricing its self out of the market.
