The Tale of India in Tower Hamlets

Great tasting food as always...

Pathetic food and excessive spices

Awful taste. All it did taste was like tomatoes.

Food was a lovely albeit a bit cold!

It was very oily...literally floating. I had to throw most of it away.

Absolutely horrible, the chilli masalla was just chopped tomatoes and onions in what i assume must be just tomato puree and some green chillies, a 3 year old can cook better dish on their toy cooker.. Absolutely disgusting, no taste whatsoever, I can't believe they charged for that rubbish... First and last time ordering from this place.

The chicken was very chewy I’m hoping next time I order it’s better

Chicken again was chewy not as chewy as last time but still not the best

Amazing as always! Will order again and again

All good but forget one item. Apart from that, it was very good.

Hardly any meat in lamb Madras full of fat

the delivery a little late however was tasty and good value with the discount offered - many thanks

Bland no taste no garlic on the bread wont order from them again absolute waste of money

Great food... First time ordering from here and will definitely order again!

Not enough meat. Very little for price. But did was nice.

Unfortunately I have to admit that the worst korma I have ever had in my life.

Went to the restaurant on a recommendation. We had lamb masala, garlic and chilli chicken curry and a biryani. All the food was delicious and served quickly unlocked all the other places we visited while in London. Couldn’t recommend highly enough

Food was excellent. Fresh and hot just what I needed. Thank you for extra veg curry. We will be back for more and also recommend friends and family.

Lovely Delivery guy, very friendly... thank you. Food was very fresh, very hot and very tasty.... This was great indian cuisine and just what I wanted. Hot enough without ruling flavours, really really good thank you.... Will order again.

Food arrived hot, and on time. Quality was good, and will order again from here.

Spicy to the point most of the food could not be eaten

The sides are very expensive for what you get and the chicken was rubbery as if it was poorly defrosted, making it quite unpleasant to eat. Curry was decent tho.

My food was late by 58 minutes. When it got here it was cold. The chips were inedible and chicken was cold and really hard

Order 4 different curry’s, but all tasted the same Mainly sauce with a few bits of meat in them but no flavour and no difference in heat either

Amazing as always! Preordered before the place opened and they did not disappoint! Love the place!

I have a usual Indian but it was closed so took a chance and it paid off…food was lovely.

Delicious biriyani, generous portion:)

Absolutely delicious. There Tikka is always delicious but I ordered Lamb Naga Biryani and oh my days now that was delicious

Delicious food loved the butter e khana and sag aloo! Will order again. Quick delivery

Fantastic good as always delivered fresh hot and on time

Great! Lots of meat in the lamb bitiya I and tikka with mango was delicious

I don't order from here often so it may have been an off night but for a place charging 11/12 quid a main, it really didn't taste that great, both curries were almost gritty and had a layer of oil on top once settled.

Nice Indian when delivery is not to late and food is till hot and fresh 👍🏼

Excellent, will order again. Nice place to eat in also

Food as always was delicious and arrived hot. Great Indian restaurant A⭐️

Not as good as normal. Sauce really watery no substance. Onion barji too spicy.

Food was so late it was cold. Called the restaurant, just met with attitude. Not a complimentary poppadom or onion salad in sight. No wonder the Indian restaurants in docklands are all failing. Because the people working in all of them are amateurs. I wouldn't recommend tale of India if my life depended on it.

Quality & packaging looks great, please work on taste . Would try again

Really tasty and authentic food.

top quality ingredients and taste. Best ever.

Got 2 curries, decent food, definitely edible, but nothing amazing.

Delicious food as always Alhamdulilah, got a drink too thank you!

The food was over spiced all you taste is chilli powder in all dishes

Very bad, uchi dukaan feeka pakwaan, empty hotel not interested in selling. 9 pm at night and absolutely no customers no stuff to eat no choices but still has the audacity to command for minimum charge. If the owner is reading this message don’t struggle by opening the shop but try to revive by having stuff and good behavioural staff

The driver was gave a excellent customer

Meat & Prawn dish too watery. Mango chutney watered down, disappointed.

Fantastic food top notch service thank you

Delivery driver just didn’t seem to understand simple instructions that I provided. I had about 5 calls with him and eventually went looking for him. Good cold when I got it!

The food would be nice but it was so SPICY that we couldn’t finish it, half went to the bin. Normally we would finish it all but it was incredibly spicy and not enjoyable at all. I am disappointed as I feel like I waisted the money

Must admit new to the area so have tried most curry gaffs but this one I’ve come back to the curry is spot on with spice no grease on top & rice was authentic would defo recommend others to try

Very good quality food, unfortunately too spicy for me!

Im so glad I ordered passanda, chicken tikka and lamb biryani. Food was amazing, so tasty. Definitely will order again. Thank you:)

Excellent food - really well-flavoured and tasty. Also appreciated the good service that took account of the traffic delays with delivery

Took a while to find an a Indian restaurant in the area that I actually enjoyed, and I’ve finally found one! Such a shame it’s so expensive, would order a lot more frequently if it was better priced but it makes me want to continue my search to find somewhere affordable

Molto buono! Decisamente speziato quindi bisogna andare preparati :) abbiamo apprezzato curry, riso e nan, buoni e abbondanti. Prezzo ragionevole, servizio celere e personale gentile. Da provare.

King prawn Biryani lacked flavour and I was disappointed with the size of the king prawns that came with it. One would think the pieces will be much larger. Overall I won't be ordering this dish anytime soon

Shop reported on time delivery

The panner biryani was good but vegetable biryani was jot. It was filled with onions only.

First time having this dish and it was perfect, not too spicy and coconut naan brilliant

Perfect food as always! Guys are so friendly

Food was good as expected, unfortunately the prawn vindaloo was not as spicy as usual, though it tasted ok.

average food, not worth the money.

Tasty Indian food. Tried the mutton currys. Highly recommend

This place use to be good. Watery Chicken Tikka Massala. No substance in the sauce. The sauce isn’t even reddish, more like orange. And they always forget any drink you order with your meal. I’m done with them!

I got a text from Just Eat at 2016 to say the order was on the way and then at 2112 the driver called to get directions, delivering the food a few minutes later after having gone to the wrong block. I then found that the food was barely warm and so called the restaurant directly and they were not really interested with an offer of a discount next time (I asked how would that work) and then a promise that my food would be hot next time. I have now had this issue with the restaurant on both my last two orders - they should try to deliver to my area if it is too far and their drivers are unable to follow basic instructions. A very unpleasant experience.

Found stones in my food, I think from the tandoor

This is not Indian food... period

One of the worst chicken gravy I have ever had.

Ordered from this restaurant 3 times now. Every time food is hot and delivered on time. Generous portion sizes and tastes amazing! Will be ordering from this restaurant a lot more.

Not authentic. 5 prawns in the balti & a spoonful of sauce filled with onions. Samosas are frozen and not freshly cooked. Would give it zero stars if possible

Portion size is a joke. Charge extra £3 for tandoori option and still get 3 bites of chicken with the sauce witch is not even half a delivery container. The taste is nice. But need to order 4mains if you hungry. I used to order from here and remember us to have decent size of the dishes…

Taste less food I can ever eat. Highly disappointed. It’s totally waste of money

The food was late, but the driver was very apologetic and the food more than made up for it. Will order again!

The food, when it arrived, was very nice. I'd order from them again.

Tasteless.... Salad looked days old wouldn't consider attempting it. Mint sauce was like water. Really off putting. Not good... Bland bland bland 👎

Not much to write about really. The restaurant is just over 4 miles away from where I live and we're pretty quick so not sure food was made to order. Chapati bread was quite hard so I think it may have been heated in a microwave. Paneer marinade was quite bland. Bag of salad was only shredded lettuce. Bhindi bhaji,Bombay potatoes and chicken kurma very tasty with a lot of flavour so in general a mixed bag

My food hasn't even been delivered

No call nothing not sure where is the food?

I loved everything but just it was a bit too expensive anyway the discount makes a difference.

Food not good could have been much better definitely not cooked today more like leftovers heated in Owen.... fully dispointed

Terrible food with tonnes of oil. Cold. Delayed delivery. Never ordering again.

Food was alright, great temperature and packaging. But the chicken tikka masala wasn't great at all. And the chicken biriani was ok

Food was hot and fresh. The delivery was quick too. Thanks!

lamb is not worth it small little chunks, better of buying a microwave meal, bigger pieces. save your coins.

Food was lovely, but my biryani was too spicy for me. Brilliant if you love spicy food, but I don't. The rest of the family like spicy food and they thought it was lovely.

Sorry guys but the lamb literally had only fat there was not any meat so I could not eat it…..

My first time eating butter chicken and it wasn’t good they barely put any chicken in and the sauce had a weird texture to it. I’m so disappointed.

Sadly didn’t follow the request in comments section. Shame as this is one of my favourite places.

Small portions, not much flavour in the food. Containers oily and leaking.

Chicken tikka was dry, and the poppadoms tasted stale. The rice was good and vindaloo.

Balti was really good, the daal I've never seen one with pieces of lemon in it, I didn’t like it

my order is late by more than one hour its just awful very bad experience

Food was delicious as always, regular customer here and they never fail to impress us all! Sana bhuna was amazing mixed with the special fried rice. Ordered shatkhora bhuna again and it was just so yummy. Alhamdullilah

The food was tasty and generous and the popadom and dips on the house was a lovely touch, I will be ordering from them again

Did nt arrive. This is the second time this has happened!

Forgot a dish and was to busy to bring it and the food had no flavor

The biryani I ordered was okay along with the Chicken Tikka. However the reason for the low score, I specifically asked for everything to be mild but it seems the restaurant didn't bother reading that as the vegetable curry that comes with the biryani was more than just spicy. Completely spoilt all the food and couldn't enjoy any of it.

Over salted curry it was inedible

Got pokoras on the house which were extremely delicious. Biriyani as per usual was very nice, love the food here, we have ordered many times and have been super impressed every single time, the service is also great as they are very quick to provide the yummy food.

Food was good, decent portion size. However, delivery time was way too long (waited over an hour for the food).
