The Chilli Tree in Rother

Food, service, atmosphere was all 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! They even encourage you to take home what you can't eat and provide you with the takeaway containers. A very positive dining out experience. Well worth a visit.

Spoiled again by Saleh, the Manager! Beautiful food and given extras. Bonus is it's 'bring your own alcohol'. Looking forward to our next visit. Booked for Christmas Day....again!

For those of you who are looking to lose weight fast, get yourself to chilli tree. This is because once you’ve had a mouthful of their fine food, you will be spending the next 4 hours on the toilet.

The food in here is second to none. The owner will bend over backwards to make your party a good experience. And if you ask him to do something special for you ( me ) he always comes up with the food to be happy with.

My food was delicious and really good portions it arrived within half an hour of ordering with some very appreciated extras thrown in ☺️ I’m totally sold , chilli tree is my new go to Excellent food and excellent service!!

The Chilli Tree is so welcoming, lovely atmosphere and delicious food at very reasonable prices.

Another fantastic visit to our place to go. Went for a birthday meal with friends and as always Salah was lovely and really takes the time to suss out what you like and comes up with the most amazing food. Delicious every time. A bonus that you can bring your own alcohol too. He even went out of his way to make some lovely food on the house for our dear friend who couldn’t join us due to being in an accident!!! Who does that?!!! Lovely man, fabulous restaurant Thanks Salah xx

Great to find a restaurant where you can take your own alcoholic drinks! Tasty food and friendly front of house

The food is excellent and plentiful. The owner is always friendly and really cares about his business and customers. We’re always made to feel welcome. His food delivery service is the best we know of, in terms of the quality and quantity.

First time ordering from here. Food was excellent 👍great quality, taste & great portion size. Came with extras not ordered, such a nice surprise! Most definitely order from here again without hesitation! After trying others this is now mine & the family's favourite!

Just wow! Without a doubt the best takeaway you can get. It’s like getting a lovingly made meal, that’s been cooked especially for you, when you order here. The owner is lovely and the food is consistently 10/10. Thank you so much for our delicious extras!

What a fantastic night. Amazing food and service. 8 of us ate in and we had an absolute feast with lots of new things prepared for us to try. The owner was brilliant chatting to us and asking our preferences and preparing food to our taste. No extra charge for things he wanted us to try. It was a fantastic way to celebrate my birthday along with the cake and wine from the restaurant. Thank you ❤️

Absolutely fantastic evening. The food was delicious and they gave us extra dishes plus a birthday cake for my friend which was above and beyond which was expected. I highly recommend going here. The staff were totally amazing. We will definitely be going back again and can recommend them to others

The food was hot and delicious, I can't ask any more

Always amazing food! Our go too for Indian!

Great food, on time. Thank you for the bonus dish too 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Excellent food. Really great value and friendly staff.

Firstly. Great approach from the staff when I phoned. Gave everything we ordered and more. Secondly. Great delivery and fast which was unexpected. Thirdly. Food was amazing. Every dish was delicious and had its own flavour. Really lovely food. Highly recommended

its all fine no big deal just the first time as they are normally very quick

Ordered online via deliverychef only have have my order cancelled 10 minutes before it arrived when I called you you were rude and told me it wasnt your fault as your dont deliver to my address even though you website said you do. Won't bother again.

Great food & Service as always 👍

Great food & Service as always 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Delivered on time, tasty dishes and considerable amount of free food added into the bag. Rare to see freebies these days. Thank you very much 😊

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ great food as always

My family and I love this place. Always great food and flavours! The perfect meal to order out for football, or a treat to dine in!

It was really great, food was great, the host was super friendly and helpful. We tried many dishes and even got a few extra we weren't expecting, so generous .Great night out :)

We have eaten at this restaurant before and all I can say is absolutely amazing flavours and the extras sent with our order much appreciated thanks chilli tree

We have used The Chilli Tree a few times for take away meals and have eaten in. The food is amazing, absolutely delicious and the owner cannot do enough for you. Highly recommend, won't go anywhere else for Indian cuisine now 😊

The owner is so lovely and welcoming, everytime we see him he makes time to speak to us and make sure everything is perfect. The food is so good and great for the price! Definitely our favourite Indian :))

Absolut pleasure ! Always comes on time or early, food is very tasty! Will order again! 100%

Excellent food, excellent service and a thoroughly great time was had by all. Salah really does know how to make you feel welcome. If you find yourself in Bexhill you really must go - you won't be disappointed!

Lamb very nicely cooked and extras was a pleasant surprise, many thanks A+++

We come here a lot and are never disappointed. Salah is a wonderful host who is highly accomodating and will always have a lovley chat with. Food is just amazing and the variety of dishes is vast. We've been working our way though the menu!

Stopping at a local caravan site just outside Bexhill, delivery was still available. A quick call from the restaurant and a pickup from the front gate was agreed. When the food arrived the driver delivered straight to us. The food was delicious and still piping hot. To our surprise we had a lot of things included which were complimentary including Bombay aloo and onion bhaji’s. Our party of 6 all commented on how nice the food was and would highly recommend a meal from the chilli tree.

In google It’s shows open untill 11:00pm but we came 9:00 pm they said it closed please correct the timings when you close early

Absolutely love coming here, i’ve been in to eat as well as ordering to take away. The owner is so lovely and all the staff are so welcoming. Food is always hot (temp) even when ordering delivery. Recommend to everyone asking about indian takeaway because it’s the best i’ve been to

really enjoyed it. A very tasty and generous meal

Got a takeaway from here. Great food very flavourful and arrived fast all food was hot.

Great place to eat and chill out. Service is excellent.

The Chilli Trees dishes are delightfully succulent. Obviously handmade, not bought in bulk, readymade like so many other restaurants must do, in order to taste so similar. Simply put I am always happy to order from The Chilli Tree.

We had a takeaway this evening, absolutely fantastic food. Piping hot, Salah remembered I love Bombay potato. I didn’t ask request but I got container full of it, was so good. Thank you for an amazing meal and great service. Will definitely, as always, use again 😃 I will also say his delivery driver was out delivering so he took himself out the restaurant to deliver to me. Thanks Salah.

This guy is amazing. He's a real personality and he loves entertaining his guests. He's also passionate about his food and I can honestly say this is one of the best curry houses i've eaten in for a very long time. He's not charging the right prices for the quality of the food - so get in quick before he realises he should double the prices!

Amazing place to eat, love it every time. Been again recently and literally can't fault the place, really nice service and food as always tastes spot on.

Had a takeaway and wow! Fantastic food. The owner was fantastic as I don't like very spicy food so he tweaked the vegetable curry that came with the biriyani so I could eat it. Couldn't do enough to make me happy. Thank you

What a great find, down here for a few days and fancied a curry. Was welcomed by the owner and treated to a fabulous couple of hours eating a delicious meal. The owner was so attentive and brought us two starters on the house, things we wouldn’t normally order but will in future. Was so stuffed had to have a doggy bag. No alcohol is served but you can take your own. Best wishes from the couple from Portsmouth.

Amazing meal thank you so much

Excellent food definitely will re order and recommend

Had a lovely time at chilly tree with family and definitely a good chilly and garlic curry highly recommended 👌 from shala him self 😀 see u again soon Grate food Grate place Grate atmosphere and fabulous customer service 👌 10/10 by far the best Indian in bexhill

Had a fantastic meal out here, everything was delicious and the manager is very accommodating and so generous which was very much appreciated!!! Truly a hidden gem!! We will definitely return as soon as possible!

Fantastic evening for a friend’s birthday celebration. Huge choice of food which is always gorgeous and plenty of it. Salah usually recommends something yummy and really tries to find out what you like. He is the perfect host and nothing is ever too much trouble. It’s become our regular place to go now and we can bring our own drinks which is fabulous. I’d recommend Chilli Tree 100%!

Food was amazing and plentiful!!! The Owner is very passionate and such a lovely guy. Would highly recommend this place.

Hi, It’s Pat from Delaware (East coast of the US). We are here staying in their flat with our friends, C and G. C grew up in Bexhill (and attended Sunday School in this very building when it was still a church!). Before learning about Chilli Tree we previously had gone to Mowgli on the oceanfront where we were largely ignored throughout the meal (to be fair they had a very large group in the back room to attend). Though the food was okay it was pricey. While looking for a restaurant for my birthday dinner I read reviews on the seven Indian/Asian restaurants in and near Bexhill, and found on balance the greatest praise and positive comments about Chilli Tree and Sal, the owner. We came prepared for his attentive, joking manner, and had a delightful back and forth across a wide spectrum of topics. The food was plentiful, along with a number of free sides. All the dishes were mild at our request due to the palate of one of our party. A Chicken Grill dish (also free) was tender and delicious! Lamb balti, garlic mushroom, chole masala, lamb saagwala all had nice flavor (though the lamb was a bit chewy), and the rice was light and flavorful. Each dish was prepared well, though we did find the Chicken Kurma was very sweet (we are much more used to a savory Kurma back home). Many restaurateurs tend to be personable as it is in their best interest to engage with their customers. Sal is super-attentive, yet does so with aplomb and a good-natured repartee! Chilli Tree will be on our schedule for our return trips to Bexhill !! Thanks Saleh for helping to make my birthday special.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Great food as always 👍

Absolutely fabulous! The most delicious food and such a warm friendly service. Such a lovely guy. Would highly recommend. Will definitely be going back soon. 10/10!

Best curry I have had in years, delicious, flavourful and full of new flavours and blends

We were a party of 9 work friends and I would recommend this restaurant. We went for an evening meal and found friendly attentive service from the owner whose name I'm afraid I don't know. He gave us several extra dishes for free. We took our own drinks as they do not service alcohol. The food was delicious, hot and cooked to perfection. There is a small car park on-site.

This restaurant is amazing. The owner and staff are very welcoming on arrival. The food is absolutely delicious. The owner also gave extra dishes for free. There was so much we couldn’t eat it all. As 9 guests we all got the right meal that we had ordered and it was all piping hot. We all took our own alcohol and the restaurant provided us with glasses and ice. They do sell soft drinks there if you want too. We just took our own. Desserts were delicious too. The owner is funny and ready to meet your needs. The quality of the food was 5* and we will all definitely be returning. The prices are also very good. Excellent place to eat. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely lovely and thanks for the freebies, what a quality restaurant and service A++++

Best Indian takeaway ever. provides excellent cuisine every time. Been placing orders with them for more than three years.

Wow! Absolutely yummy. Chicken melted in your mouth. The lamb was soooo Tender. Definitely recommended

Excellent food, always given extas when you order a takeaway, best around.

Super curry ! Would get food from here every day !

Used the Chilli tree for the first time this week getting a takeaway. Lovely food and the service was second to none. Really friendly and would recommend. Planning on heading there for a sit in meal soon

I have been abroad for nearly a year and came home briefly for Christmas. The Chilli Tree has been my favourite Indian restaurant since I was a teenager, and I had been craving a chicken bhuna for a good part of the year. So I asked my parents if we could order an Indian takeaway the day before I flew back abroad. It was so delicious! I'm sorry we couldn't come in to eat, but I would love to when I'm back. Till next year!

Amazing food and wonderful owner. A perfect home place for a friendly night with great food.

Unfortunately the food was tasteless the cauliflower bhaji, onion bhaji and the nan as it arrived early was very hot . The madras had a load of small cherry tomatoes in it which was very odd. Probably won’t order again from them.

This restaurant is by far the best.... After having to cancel my birthday meal for 6 of us for my birthday due to the stromey weather last week only 2 of us could go. We had to go through the kitchen cos the owner was stuck in Kent, but the staff were very accommodating and apologetic. The food was still the best. The next morning the manager phones me to offer myself and friends a free meal ( where else would you get that service? ) We went back tonight and could not be happier with the service, food and company. This restaurant and staff come very highly recommend from me. Thank you salah for your hospitality and generosity.

1st time at the chilli tree, great food great service. Definitely will be back🙂

Excellent food, with a free main too.

Great night out, good food and good service will go again

The food at the Chilli Tree is just incredible and plenty of it too! The service is fantastic, front of house could not make you feel more welcome. There are clearly a good number of regulars - if I lived closer I fear I may be one!

If you'd never had takeaway from here , you'd probably walk right by, from the outside it's not the most attractive building. Once you get inside however you get a warm friendly welcome, a very interesting menu that contains the classic English curry House dishes but also lots of unique different recipes. The food is delicious ( having had delivery from here before I wasn't surprised), with decent portion sizes and good value. If you fancy eating out rather than take out one night, it's very worth a visit.£20 a head gets you a lot of food and a doggy bag to go

From the moment you walk in , you are welcomed like family. The hosts go above and beyond to make your time there special. The food matches the service in its excellence. I highly recommend it!

We booked a family table for today to eat out for the very first time as normally I’d cook after spending the day at work so it was nice to be waitered on today , we shall be going back next year as we couldn’t have had a better meal anywhere else especially with the excellent service from stepping inside the door from the very attentive host and lovely waitresses. Two of my family members are vegetarian and although there wasn’t anything on the menu my daughter liked Sal went out of his way to make sure they had something, even for my grandson, great service all round as well as excellent food, we weren’t rushed and felt like we was at home enjoying ourselves nothing was to much trouble highly recommend the chilli tree if you’ve not been before you won’t be disappointed

Great food however was given extra dishes which we didn’t order which was fab but also miss a dish that was ordered

Absolutely fantastic food and so much choice. Much better than other Indian restaurants we have been to. The owner greets you and is very friendly. Had some poppadoms free of charge and dips which was delicious. Starter's and mains delicious and such a good price. Went here for our daughter's birthday who is Autistic 🎂😘 We went on a Thursday and it wasn't busy at all there was us and another table. Owner was absolutely lovely and got our daughter a bunch of flowers for her birthday as she doesn't like Cake.🎂 The Owner is so thoughtful and makes you feel welcomed. We love this place food and company is fantastic and would highly recommend this restaurant to our friends as we have no family in the area. We will be going back in the near future or ordering Takeout. Fantastic all round at a great price and you can take your own booze and not be charged for it.😁👍👍👍👍

As always, simply the best. The best takeaway around! The owner is absolutely lovely, so generous and the food is always delicious. Thank you :)

First time visitor to the Chilli Tree... well worth the visit and once you've eaten here you'll definitely return as the food is absolutely fantastic with incredible flavours and decent portions all at a great price. The menu has some really interesting and unusual dishes and I'm looking forward to trying more. The owner is welcoming and friendly and it's all very laid back. Give it a go... you won't be disappointed

Just ordered for a collection, best curry I’ve had since we moved here 4 years ago. Absolutely delicious.

The food was amazing we had chicken tikka, The host is very friendly and welcoming. I would 100% recommend to eat in or takeaway.

Really surprised great atmosphere really friendly food was best I’ve had and not expensive definitely going to be regular eat out for us they do takeout but I prefer to eat in because of the atmosphere we’ll recommend

Not an authentic curry. Watery with no flavour. Looks like some sort of pre-made emulsion as the oils haven't separated like they should with a home made curry. People were very nice and friendly but sorry to report that the food is not good.

We came over on a Friday evening to place an order for collection, we returned at the time specified and food was hot and ready. On return to our accommodation for the weekend, we had an abundance of food and it was excellent. The owner is great and beyond helpful and we will return to sample the restaurant in a few weeks. If you want a great takeaway or eat in we highly recommend the chilli tree.

Always a pleasure ordering from The Chilly tree, really tasty food, spicy, delicious. Always a little something extra for us..absolutely a pleasure! Thank you. Highly recommend it.

Highly recommend. Easy to order, great food

A great place to eat in or takeaway! I can honestly say we have never had a bad meal from here! The service is second to non! Would definitely recommend trying it out!!

Both the service and food were excellent. A gentleman called after submitting the order, to reconfirm everything. The food arrived sooner than expected, all fresh & hot, even got a couple of freebies for being a new customer. Everything was delicious and was definitely the best curry/Indian we’ve ever had. Will definitely be returning!

Very tasty meal plus free extras, will definitely order from here again.

Got food from here twice on Uber eats owner is so lovely! answered any questions I had when I called and the food is amazing! I don’t ever write reviews but the service is so good I needed to do one also have had extras thrown in for free that I didn’t purchase which was even better! if you’re going to get a curry order from here will now be my go to :)

Best Indian in town Food is superb and the owner goes the extra mile to make sure you have an amazing food experience I live in France and visit my son in Bexhill and always take a couple of meals home with me! Allan

Had a fantastic meal here with my family while staying in Pevensey, we were looking for a good curry and struggling to find one so weren't sure what to expect. But the food and the service was just brilliant, the owner went above and beyond to make sure we had a great meal and it was truly tasty including best bhajis we've ever had! Being able to bring our own alcohol was a bonus and the whole meal for 7 of us was really good value. Highly recommend paying a visit! Wish he would relocate back to London so we could enjoy his food more often....

Thank you a great meal x best reminds me of food from Birmingham x

Wow!. What an amazing place. Not only is the food out of this world but the guy that runs it is such a great host and really goes above and beyond. Will definitely be back!

Take away or resturaunt this place is fabulous. Sala is such a dote lovely host wonderful food. Top Indian in Bexhill. You should travel here too its well worth the trip.

My wife and I frequent this restaurant quite a few times and have now introduced some other friends to this place. Well done to the owner Sala. See you again soon maybe a phal next time.

Utterly delicious! The depth of flavor is exceptional. Can’t praise enough. ❤️

The most amazing food and fabulous service, even when getting a takeaway! Cannot recommend The Chilli Tree enough!

Sublime food, really sweet and helpfull waiter.

Excellent food as always! Really enjoyed the buttered chicken.

Superb food as always.. extras thrown in.. love this place! Thankyou chilli tree!
