The Shimla Brasserie in Thanet

We always order from Simla. Always fresh, you can really taste good ingredients and made in a great way, not stacked with sugar and even though they have the old favourites, they also have an extensive menu of dishes you should absolutely try. We have never been disappointed and have recommended it to friends who also have become fans.

Best food in margate, specially thier tk biryani is sooo delicious

Just had another fantastic takeaway from Simla, amazing flavours, best Tarka Dhall I have ever had as is the Lamb Bhuna 😋

Great food and great staff members.

Amazing food, fresh and hot always can’t never go wrong with these guys

We order the Naga Chilli Chicken with paratha and it's absolutely devine. I've literally not had much else from here, as that curry hits all the spot. Based on that dish, it's 5* from me but can not vouch for other dishes. Oh the samosas are good too! And it's never more than £25, feeds two adults aplenty!

Great food very impressed with the quality. Takeaway service only but I can highly recommend it. Friendly owner.

This restaurant is just a beauty! I really do hope the owner opens it as a restaurant The food and service is beyond phenomenal🥰 The owner is very knowledgeable and very funny too Highly recommend to everyone!!

VERY tasty food, cooked expertly! Delicious meals, carefully packed and labelled according to our order. It is truly a foodie's ultimate find!

Great food and delivered on time

Excellent restaurant quality food at a reasonable price.

Wonderful food as always, thank you. Never disappoints, always fresh, well cooked and delicious.

Excellent food as always . Delivered on time and nice and hot

Very nice takeaway from Shimla brasserie. It was about 30 mins late but the staff and other customers were entertaining. Food was very good. Please reopen the restaurant though!

moved from 9 oaklands, figured they charged more out of just eat then direct so 3x lucky went just eat...this time the food was very hot which was nice but very spicy for meals we always have. lamb bhuna and jalfrazi we could barley eat, very unusual for us, we love food from here but always more to go direct which we do to make the buisnes earn money!

Just had the best Tarka Dhal ever in Margate and good service. Thanks so much. Will be ordering again. Shelley

Always lovely food, good quality ingredients and cooked to perfection. The only Indian restaurant I will order from

Please read ! , customer experience on easter Sunday 31st March 2024 . Simla Brasserie is worth your while !! Today I ordered a Lamb Byriani from this takeaway and I'm content with my order to say the least . It is difficult to refine all of the Ingredients to this dish but after trying from this takeaway I can firmly say they are masters of cuisine crafts . Total bliss with every bite and without the conscious regret of paying an expense for it . For less than 10 pounds (8.95 on collection) I received an abundant portion of the finest lamb dish which was partnered with a joyful vegetable curry as a side . Although I can describe my experience with simla in many words I can only ultimately say that this hidden gem is worth your while .I hope the experience is as good for you too. Happy Easter

Delicious food. Will now be my regular.

Tried Simla for the first time this evening. Will now be my go to takeaway. Tasty, piping hot food and on time. Dhansak was the best I've had in a long time.

Food was an hour late, I chased it up 3 times and 2 starters were missing

Food and service absolutely abysmal. Food arrived an hour late, was cold and tasteless. Korma watery, chicken was chewy, the plain bread had more taste than anything else. Extremely disappointed. Would not order from here again.

Great food great service can't fault anything will be ordering again.

Food was hot, and tasty and plenty of it, I would recommend

Would give it six stars if I could. Food is incredible—best in the area by a mile.

Excellent. Lovely and arrived piping hot.

Beautiful, Thank you for the extras.

it's saying my food as been delivered. and I ain't got no food here. no one even knocked on door

It was the wrong order - completely different and much less than we ordered, look forward to hearing from you …..

Over an hour and a half late and had asked for fresh chillies, for an Indian restaurant… very disappointed… I wanted a tad bit more hotter,,, so thank you but no thanks

This order took over an hour and a half for point of order, not good enough

Order has not arrived and restaurant is not answering the phone

food great could have had a bit more cheese in the saag paneer .but food was good again a little bit late for delivery but must have been busy today.but all good

Thank you again. Delicious piping hot food. Highly recommend.

Never disappoints. Good quality. We only order from here👌

The food was piping hot and delicious 😋

Ordered 2 chicken Kormas with pilau rice and unfortunately both Kormas were really watery and flavourless. will not be ordering again.

Always such delicious food. I only order my Indian takeaways from here now.

As always, the food was freshly prepared and piping hot with astounding additional onion bhajees!

Although the food was a little late they apologised and the food was great, as always.

What a lovely Valentine’s Day meal from the Simla, the restaurant put in some lovely treats for us too, such a nice gesture, thank you for making our night extra special. 🩷

words can't even describe how utterly stupendous the meal i received was, simla brasserie have time after time proved that they are the greatest curry based eat in/take out spot in kent if not England, cooked with passion, and delivered with care, sometimes i have to order and eat my simla in the garden because my partner gets quite aggressive about the frequency of which i order, the quality of the food more than makes up for the bruises, simla warms my insides in mkfd than one way. order now.

Food was excellent and great value. Onion Bhajis really tasty and two good pieces of tandoori chicken. Main curry of Lamb Bhuna and both Vege sides were again really enjoyable. Delivery a little late but Saturday evening so no issues.

Big Order, but everything arrived lovely and very hot. Thank you for the extras, very much appreciated.

The order was over an hour late and we would have cancelled but did not have the option to cancel and when the food arrived it was not hot enough very disappointed

Always high standard food, highly recommend 👍

Onion bhaji missing from our order Would request a refund for that please

hi everybody the onion bhajis were lovely maybe a bit my sauce with them.the meal was all good and hot.so it was all good and tasty as well.

Delivery was 20 minutes later than expected but the restaurant did apologise and gave us a free side, the food arrived piping hot and tasted delicious, will order again

Great food but late and lukewarm. They called to apologise and gave freebies.

ordered at 18.24, said it would be delivered between 19.25 and 19.45 but it didn't arrive until 20.45. phoned restuarant at 19.50 and was told it would be 20 minutes, 55 minutes later our food finally arrived! Awful service. poppadoms were also stale.

Exceptional food. Delivered well packaged and hot. Very impressed

Once again, absolutely scrumptious, we wouldn't buy from anywhere else 😋

Really nice food and delivered hot with a friendly smile

Food was barely warm. Curry's were watery. Korma and Tikka Masala tasted near the same.

The food was excellent, very tasty, full,of flavours and hot. The best takeaway meal we have had for long time. Delivered on time.

Lovely food. Generous extras, very good value for money and great spices!

Food was hot and enjoyable would recommend

Lovely food, delivered on time by a courteous driver,highly recommend! Happy New Year 🥳

Food arrived hot and earlier than expected - all of the food was exceptional. Wouldn’t go anywhere else :)

Food was lovely! Arrived early too!

The best takeaway curry I have had in a very long time, exceptional! Food was very tasty, fresh and hot delivered precisely on time. The spinach was to die for.

!Best Indian in Thanet. Always super quality and service.

That was an absolutely delicious meal. Piping hot, fresh and flavourful. I haven’t had a take away that good for a very long time. The chicken was cooked to perfection, the sauces were great too. Perfection!

Ordered food from here last night after hearing high praises, I can confirm this place is deserving of their praises, throughly enjoyed by all family, perfect treat before Christmas, food was so good the family now wants it again for Christmas dinner, see you again on Christmas Eve! Shame the restaurant is unavailable for dine in, hopefully you will open up again in the new year! 5*

Great tasting food delivered on time

Food was fantastic arrived a bit later than I expected but it is a busy time of the year n the food was still hot so no dramas

Very good chicken shashlik Saag aloo was bangin'

Late delivery and food was cold ?!!!!!

Food was delivered on time and piping hot . All containers were clearly marked so no confusion and food was delicious.

Just the salad missing. But food was lovely

I ordered at 17.23 for delivery at 18:45 which is 82 minutes ahead of time. Then was advised the food would be half an hour late, and then the order was incomplete on arrival. Shame, as normally they are very good.

Late and forgot an item from our order.

This is our favourite place for curry but it wasn’t as good as usual tonight (Tuesday). Oddly, the chicken rezala had minced beef in it - not stated on the menu and therefore a surprise. The chicken in both dishes (jalfrezi and rezala) also not the usual quality. Maybe a different kitchen team on other nights we’ve ordered.

Not happy!! Missing food and no answer from the restaurant!!

Cooked to perfection. Quality produce. Spice blends and flavours incredibly authentic. One of the best curries I've had and that includes those in India. Keep it up.. Only down side... There is no restaurant anymore.

2 items missing, arrived 2 hours after ordering, luke warm. Nobody answering the phone when I tried to ring the restaurant, very disappointing when we've had such lovely food before. Do I get a refund for missing items??

So late we had to collect ourselves, and still had to pay the delivery charge

Not very nice tandoori king prawns were just prawns in sauce

Order accepted at 5.20pm Food was scheduled to be delivered between 6.15 and 6.35. So quite a long time anyway. Called restaurant at 6.36. Food didn't arrive till 7.01pm Very very slow by any standards.

This was the best Indian food I have had, possibly ever. Utterly wonderful food!

Not the usual standard tonight was disappointing , had a very long wait and meal wasn’t very warm and curry very watery!

The food tasted great, was hot and arrived on time- very happy with the order!

Lush Indian, very polite and helpful. food hot and delicious x

Food was good it was late but they was very busy and explained to me on phone

Food as usual 5 star shame it was 20 mins late.

Lovely food but only delivered one keema naan when we ordered two

very consistent, good quality food. Thank you

Arrived lovely, hot and freshly cooked. All meals were excellent and thank you for the extras, much appreciated. Nice delivery driver too.

Excellent food, lamb was very tender, delivered piping hot. Will be ordering again

Food was fine. Ordered 3 poppadums only got 2.

30mins late at time of writing. No reason given no fks given either I expect.

A little late, but Saturdays are always busy.

Had high hopes for here, sadly what we received weren’t great .. the garlic Naan bread was slightly burnt, could smell it also , so they were hard , the 3 kormas we had were very grainy , other food was ok. Sadly it feels like a lot of money wasted tonight on this .

Food was fabulous but the driver got lost. I phoned the restaurant and it was sorted out and the food was piping hot upon delivery.

We have just moved to the area and tried our new local Indian. It was absolutely delicious 😋

Lovely food, just a little late

Lovely curry thank you! Would recommend to anyone who is looking for delicious Indian cuisine

A little bit late, but food was still hot and tastes great. Onion bajhis were brilliant and massive!

Unfortunately I had items substituted as the restaurant ran out of chickpeas, but my family loved the Simla biryani. Fabulous as usual!
