Toran Indian Cuisine in Wiltshire

We were regular customers at the Toran before it changed its name and live locally. We popped in early on a Friday evening to order a takeaway and despite there being no one in the restaurant at all, we were told it would be 30 mins. As we live locally, we popped home and then returned half an hour later to pick up our food. It wasn’t ready, so we waited another 15 minutes or so. No problem at this stage until we discovered that our takeaway had been given to another customer who had taken it home! The front of house staff member was completely ineffective and tried unsuccessfully to contact the other customer to bring our food back. He then ignored us for about 10 minutes while looking for yet another customers order. At this stage, we asked for our food to be recooked, to be told it would be another half an hour wait. By this time, we had had enough and we asked for a refund but were told it could only be refunded to the card that paid for it - this was now at home! Another of our party drove back out to the restaurant with the card for the refund, to arrive and be told that they had recooked our order. It was blatantly obvious that our original order had been returned and had been reheated. Eventually, we were given a refund but in cash this time, and from the wallet of the front of house member of staff as he couldn’t work the card machine. We rang another takeaway as we left the stone burner, drove to Warminster and it was ready when we arrived and cost significantly less! I am afraid that the stone burner has lost a local customer. Poor service.

Have visited this restaurant on many occasions when it was The Toran and never had an issue. It has now changed its name and management. Visited the restaurant with my family. The waiter spoke very little English and we were told to be patient with him by management. The manager then popped out to do a delivery and we were left with the waiter. We waited over 2 hrs for our mains when we were the only people bar a couple in the restaurant . The food when it eventually arrived was cold and bland. Looked like it had been warmed through several times. We hardly ate any of our food but no one asked why we had wasted so much. We then got the bill. We were astonished with the price for what was mediocre Indian food at best. We left and not even a sorry all evening. Very unprofessional. The next day a few were sick and had upset stomachs. AVOID THIS RESTAURANT AT ALL COSTS. I can now see why we were the only people in there on a Friday night.

Have visited this place 3 times now. 1st time the food was stone cold, second time the service was abysmal - despite the restaurant being virtually empty I had to go to the bar area twice after waiting over half a hour just for somebody to take my order, the food eventually came and was again cold. 3rd time - went thinking it might be better given the name change / new management. Service was ok but it was a Friday night and we were the only ones eating there. The only other people in the restaurant were people coming to collect takeaway orders and the owners family who were sat in the waiting area having drinks - slightly unprofessional in my opinion. Food came out and was cold and just bland. I ordered a chicken madras - it was probably the worst one I have ever had, coupled with being cold!! My partner had a chicken korma - she ate 1/4 of it at best - when the plates were collected there was no querying with what was wrong with the food. Even the popadoms were poor and left a strange taste in the mouth. The best part was the rice which I find concerning, It’s also worth noting that the restaurant does not have an alcohol licence just in case you like a beer with your curry like I do! When the bill came I was appalled to see 2 popadoms, 2 standard curry’s, 2 pilau rice and 2 cokes had come to £53!! When I checked why the bill was so high, I noticed we had been charged an additional £3.50 for the pickles that came with our two popadoms (meaning they came to £5.50!!) and the curries were generally overpriced. I wouldn’t have minded this if the quality of the food was good (and warm!!). I’m sorry to write a bad review but I have given this place 3 chances. I will not be returning.

Toran has changed its name to Stoneburner, and it is under new management, with a new chef, and front of house. I’ve been going to Toran for years and I’ve already visited the ‘new’ restaurant about five times. The food remains excellent and from talking to the new owners the chef has years of experience. The local community that consists mainly of small villages is very lucky to have such a good Indian restaurant on our doorsteps. As with any new business they are bound to have teething problems but I’ve yet to experience any. I note that another reviewer was disappointed with the service (mentions a younger member of staff out of their depth), and lack of alcohol (no license yet). Personally, I’ve found the service to be friendly and it’s good to hear they are giving opportunities to younger people. I hope that reviewer and others give them a chance because we all had to start somewhere. I wish the new owners and staff all the best, and I look forward to eating there for many years to come.

Toran is an absolutely spending restaurant! From their costumer service, to the quality of food everything is truly amazing.It really does bring joy to any family looking for a place to dine on a night out. We were greeted by staff very kindly and presented with excellent food ,although the place is going through some changes, the true beauty of toran remains untouched. Toran really is a hidden jem everyone deserves to experience at least once in their lifetime.

We visited this place for a couple of reasons - my other half loves Indian food and I wanted to visit as I know it was an old Happy Eater and used to play on the elephant slides when I was little! We were quickly given a table and served drinks. We went as soon as it opened but our food was served promptly and was delicious. Staff were courteous and friendly.

The Toran is no more! It has been taken over and renamed Stonburner. As we knew that Toran was such a splendid restaurant, we thought that we would give it a try on a Friday night. I have to say that we were bitterly disappointed and walked out after twenty minutes. Our party of ten was greeted by an Indian gentleman who was rather scruffily dressed, but the serving was in the hands of a young lady who was hopelessly out of her depth, I am sorry to say. We were presented with some Popadums (without being asked) and then were asked if we would like a drink. At this point, it became clear that they had no license and therefore could not serve alcohol. Things were not going well! We had to ask for the menu, at which point we were first presented with a paper takeaway menu. A couple of minutes later, the young lady came back to our table with the old Totan menus. At this juncture, we decided that the evening was going to be fraught with difficulty and decided to leave. We asked for the bill for what we had had and they had the affrontery to present us with a charge of £7.50. No apology was forthcoming as we left, or any attempt to resolve the issues. Suffice it to say, we shall not be going back.

Having driven past many times in previous years, we have since eaten at the Toran on many occasions and have never failed to be impressed: the food is exceptional, really well cooked, and with a great variety. The staff are also welcoming, polite and attentive. Overall, a great combination of really tasty food and great service - thoroughly recommended!

Ordered a takeaway for four people from here while staying near LongLeat. They don't deliver which is a great shame, and it was a few miles to get there, but it was so worth the effort. The food was amazing. We had quite a mixture, including vegetarian mains and side dishes. It was beautifully cooked, amazing flavours. There was loads of it too, so much so that we had it for brunch the next day. Fabulous. This place is on the main road and I've driven past it many times, would def stop for a meal now I know how good the food is. Yum.

Horrific service - were belt fed our food as soon as we arrived we no breaks despite asking. Table kept being cleared whilst people were eating. Awful food - worst Indian I can ever remember eating and appalling service.

Visited The Toran to celebrate the last day of holidays before my daughter starts primary school. This was selected from my perspective as recall enjoyable meals here, and from my daughters perspective because there is an elephant slide. I saw a couple of poor reviews and wobbled slightly, but we went for it anyway. On arrival, plenty of parking and a warm welcome. We were able to sit so that she could see the elephant, parking her own elephant toy and its friend to be able to watch through the window. We were offered drinks, popadoms and I queried options from a dairy free perspective to meet a dietary requirement. The chef popped out and checked out exactly what could and could not be consumed and dishes were proposed, checking out also the type of food my daughter would like. Following this we went out and enjoyed the slide, popadoms and drinks having already arrived (so no delay experienced here). A great deal of enjoyment later (and about ten min), we returned, had a lovely experience of various dips (all bar one suitable for dairy free), and our main dishes arrived. The timing was great. Between us we thoroughly enjoyed a dhansak and chicken curry, there was check ins from staff at an appropriate level. Sadly there was absolutely no space for a dessert, but we really did enjoy that which we had. Then there was just time for a last visit to the slide, which the toys got to slide down too, then home, with both of us feeling this was a wonderful evening, fabulous meal and great experience. Whilst there was only another couple in this evening, there was a number of folk collecting meals, and I think a delivery company (no idea if in house or out as wasnt paying enough attention) collected a few too, so the kitchen was busier than the restaurant appeared at face value. However, although the dining room was quiet the atmosphere was enjoyable and it did not feel 'lonely' or in any way awkward. Thank you for a superb treat.

We were visiting Warminster on a three night break and decided to book here in advance. Our table was 715 we were sat promptly and received some poppadoms. However it then took them 55 minutes to take our order and we will told that they couldn’t take it before because the kitchen was busy. There were four tables in the restaurant another couple came in while we were waiting to order they eventually gave up through the napkins down and left. The restaurant was about 1/5 full. We tried to order another round of drinks on several occasions and then gave up as nothing ever came.I have eaten in many Indian restaurants both in India and around the UK and around the world and the food quality in this restaurant was not good. Would not recommend at all.

The waiter didn’t know what Bombay potatoes are.. Took an hour for food to come out and there was only 4 tables in the restaurant. When to food finally did arrive I was handed a dirty plate and then told it was just popadoms, the food was far to sweet it was just not enjoyable the whole time we were seated not once did we get checked on so couldn’t order another drink when needed and then when I did get the attention of the waiter it took a further 15 mins to get to me. Clearly more focused of the delivery side than the costumers in there restaurant. We will not be coming again and I would recommend that people avoid this place (never a good sign when place is empty)

Lovely service, easy parking and great covid procedures add to the excellent food. Some of the best naan we’ve had in years! Excited to return!

We went here for a Takeaway last night - a half hour round trip from home but well worth it! The food was really excellent and the menu a cut above the usual Indian. Super efficient online ordering system meant the food was ready to collect when we arrived. We will be back for sure. I cannot believe we have driven past often for the last 20+ years!

Best Indian food we have tasted in recent years. Strong flavours, not greasy or swimming in sauce. Very tasty

I am enjoying the best food available. Naga Adjusted to my taste while my husband is working his way through the excellent menu dish by dish we have been eating at Toran since the first day it opened The best food we have found anywhere in the country. Great service good price. We are proud to take our friends there knowing we will not be let down. Toran has catered for our wedding delighting out guests also supplied food for parties at home Our parties are popular when Toran. Does the catering as our friends love the food. Great place to eat Covid aware so safe. Highly recommend it R

Popped in here for dinner as staying overnight in Warminster. Lovely friendly staff, dinner was great, quick and very reasonably priced. Definitely recommend

Worth the driveFriendly staff good serviceEnjoyed our meal here all well cooked and presented.A good portion size , not huge but sufficient.I like the boss mans sense of humour you need one in this day and age!Thanks for the extra chocolates for the kids.

Passed by this venue loads of times, saying 'must try that' - an Indian in the middle of nowhere and these days, if its not doing well, they don't stay in business - this one has been there for years - therefore....We were not disappointed and consider this as one of the top restaurants of this genre in the area. All our meals were very tasty and of a high quality.That said, the venue is <1KM from a water treatment plant and if the wind is in the wrong direction, there may be an odour - its not the venues drains!That aside - we will be going back

Nothing to look at, this place serves truly fabulous curries. The service is very friendly and efficient, the menu has some unusual delicious’ but mot importantly it is all very tasty.

Must come here and best varieties of food and extremely goodest service and me favourite chicken pazanda with dry chilli

I'm Indian, I know Indian food. This is fantastic, amazing menu, great quality dishes. Up there with one of my best. Ps. Ignore location.

The best Indian meal we’ve had ever had. We were met with a warm welcome and utterly delicious food - veggie dishes were fantastic and the two meat eaters in the family loved their chicken. Everything tasted fresh and delicious, layer upon layer of delicate flavour and super healthy too. We were so blown away on our first visit we had to go back the following night. Thank you Toran!

Driving back from London my mum and I were looking for somewhere to grab a quick bite. We found Tandor and not only have I filled up on amazing food we are also taking home a take away for tomorrow night. We didn’t think to take a picture before we started but our plates are wiped clean! The masala has a real tomato base and you can taste the spices. Staff were super friendly too :) deffinately bookmarking for any future travels through this area

We're fortunately enough to consider this our "local" curry house (although from where we are its still a 20 minute drive), but the food is always worth the journey and has never once disappointed.Chefs are more than happy to tailor dishes a little to suit (lentils a little thicker than normal, tikka masala a little spicier than usual etc.) and the staff at the front door are unfailingly polite. Prices for the consistently high quality of food is entirely reasonable.A real gem of a restaurant in a quiet corner of Wiltshire and a place people will happily travel a distance to eat at.

Always a friendly welcome, good service and tasty food. I love the salmon shaslick and any of the veggie side dishes. Great rice and really well cooked food.

We come here fairly often and on Friday popped in for a dinner. Place was fairly quiet and we were served quickly, food was hot and tasty. Staff are friendly

We have passed this Elephant on the side of the road many times returning from Southampton, often tempted but had never visited, however this time we did and found a lovely welcome a pristine clean and tidy restaurant and good food.

We ordered 2 chicken kormas and done boiled rice, bam bread. It was all delicious . Would go again if ever in the area.

We didnt expect....can provide such an authentic Indian food..We loved food, customer service excellent..I'll be coming back definitely..

This is our second visit here but will not be our last. We had spent the day in Bath and popped in on the way back (just off the A36). Ample parking.

We always get our takeaway from the Toran, even though we have to drive to get it instead of deliveries from the closer curry houses in Warminster. Their food is so much better, more authentic and I don't end up with a headache due to food colourings.

If only this restaurant wasn't so far from my home. Definitely the best tasting Indian food I have had in years.

Very tasty food and very good customer service. love the grill salmon. Beautiful restaurant. Go back again.

Have driven past this place for years on A36. Always wondered what they do as it never looks busy. (They tell me they do lots of parties and lots of takeaway). Plenty of parking.

I normally eat ‘chef specials’ at this excellent restaurant, but decided to eat a Lamb Biryani from the more standard dishes. I had once eaten the standard dish and noted that in general the spice levels were quite low. So today I requested the Toran to up the heat a bit to make a more medium dish. Yes, they’ll do that.

We were staying in the local area so figured we'd go out for a meal.. the Toran is right on the main road from Bath so it was a no brainer to stop here.

Visited here for my daughter's birthday celebratory meal,whilst staying at Centre Parcs. Arriving at 6:30pm, we were the first customers & this might explain why the restaurant was so cold. Can't fault the quality of the service or the food or the choices on offer. Bit disappointed that despite the constant reminders that it was my daughter's birthday, no effort was made by staff to commemorate the occasion.

Having tried most of the Indian Restaurants in the local area The Toran is by far the best. I often visit Warminster for work and having driven past it many times on A36 decided to stop last year. Now every time I am in the area I take a short drive and eat in the establishment itself. They do do take always but the restaurant itself is spacious & warm and service is welcoming.

I say surprisingly, because this place is just off the A36 at Codford, Warminster. We have driven past many times but didn't really think to visit. Yesterday, after a trip back from Bath, we thought we would check it out. There is ample parking.

We have driven past Toran many times on the A36 and always thought that it was an odd place for an Indian restaurant! Well, driving past it all those times was a big mistake! Last night we stopped and went for a meal there. It was a wonderful experience! We consider ourselves to be Indian food experts as a result of our global travels. The food at Turan was excellent, light, with really interesting Flavours, great service and really friendly staff. If you live in the "greater Warminster area" or are traveling on the A36 en route to somewhere, don't just think about it - STOP and try it!!

We only had one night to go out for dinner during our week in the Warminster/Upton Lovell Area. We chose to Toran, and as we left our abode for the restaurant that rain started to come down with a vengeance.

We travellen 20 miles because we heard the sunday buffet was good, and they were right. Really good food and excellent value. Highly advise a visit

Lovely food ,good service, ,just a shame we was overcharged on the bill ,also decor outdated unlike other Indian restaurants we’ve visited

We enjoy having takeaways from here. Really tasty food, Nice Staff, & the restaurant is nicely arranged.

I do sometimes wonder if we've visited a different restaurant to most other reviewers. I'm afraid we found this very ordinary. My biggest complaint was that everything was weirdly sweet - interesting to see a couple of other reviews saying the same. Our samosas were almost like baklava & my dahl masala could honestly have been a pudding. Really didn't enjoy it I'm afraid & we won't be returning.

Average, but friendly staff. Can’t see how this is healthy food though as stated on the website. There were pools of grease with the lamb dish and the chicken tikka masala (which was written wrong on the handwritten menu stuck on the wall with blue-tac - dall or dal / dahl, nan or naan, lots of spelling mistakes ) was like a whole bag of sugar had been poured into it.

I think the owners of Toran were a bit before their time because for years they have been producing healthier alternative to the usual Indian cuisine. I've travelled widely and eaten indian meals said to be "award winning" and "totally authentic". Usually they are very good but none stack up to the quality of Toran. I've moved away from the area now but relatives chose Toran for a big Birthday celebration recently and it was such a joy to taste their fragrant and thoughtful dishes again.

We have passed the Toran so many times on the A36 but this time the timing was good for a visit. It is a large restaurant with ample parking. The service is excellent, prices reasonable and a very good quality menu. Thoroughly enjoyable and we hope to visit again.

Amazing customer service and top quality food with lots of choice on the menu!10/10 would recommend, even if it's just to go on the elephant slide they have outside!

Straight to the point - THE FOOD WAS AMAZING ! So niceee! & The manager made sure the food was EXACTLY how I wanted it in terms or spice levels, for example.The restaurant caters to everyone- including veggies ! LAV IT . I’d go back VERY often if my money could stretch .

I have been here many times lately and its all due to the fantastic customer service and the top quality healthy Indian food the produce here. Flavours you won't get from any other Indian. Highly recommended. It's a must!

Superbe friendly service, excellent selection of dishes, none of us were disappointed. Thanks made for a surprisingly pleasant evening

We pop in for a curry, we get a take away and the reception is always a beaming smile. It really does have a healthier options menu but we almost always go for the tandoori specialities, in particularly the shaslik or the mixed grill. Whatever we have we are never disappointed.

It was great to have the carvery again, after a short spell in hospital,and a no fat diet but the chef came up trumps as always, now I’m almost back to normal. Robbani and all his staff go out of their way to fill your dietary needs, thanks guys. I had the carvery last Sunday and as always it was excellent,my wife had a lamb dish, and that was excellent as well, we are having a party in July and have told them we would like them to cook the curry for us, as they did for our wedding. I always recommend Toran to friends and whom ever we meet. Thanks again guys and see you all soon. John & Toyna.

I’ve posted in the past about Indian restaurants in the local area as I often have to stay in Warminster for work. I’ve tried pretty well all of them (there is a new one just opened) but..... I promised myself I’d give the Torah ago this trip.

For a change this year we thought we would go to the Toran for valentines dinner. The attentive servers kept our glasses and plates topped up. The food as always was fresh and excellent. The staff and proprietors were helpful choosing new dishes.

On the way home after a family day out at Longleat we called in to the Tora half-expecting to be turned away as there were 7 of us and we hadn't made a reservation! However we were warmly welcomed and were all able to sit together. The restaurant is clean and the food was excellent. During our time there a lot more people came in and it quickly filled up. The staff were very friendly, efficient and welcoming so on the whole it would be very difficult to fault such a brilliant restaurant. The restaurant is on the main road, very noticeable, with plenty of car parking. I would definitely recommend it and wouldn't hesitate to return.

I will admit to being a fairly regular customer at the Torah for the restaurant and takeaway meals. Where I think the Torah really excels is with their house specialities (which total about 40 main courses) rather than ‘the old favourites’. You won’t find liquid...

Have never had a sit down meal, but often have a take away from here, though we have booked for Valentine's. When we pick up our takeaway the restaurant looks very inviting. The staff are very nice people we have become friends. The food is...

For the last ten years we have been eating Sunday lunch on a regular basis at Toran. They have also catered for our wedding and parties, both at the restaurant and at home. The food is excellent, service is too. They cater for small parties...

Our family had a lovely meal here on the way back home from Longleat. Highly recommended. We will visit here again when we are in the area.

Yet again a very good meal I had chicken tikka masala it was lovely and The puddings were amazing as well and the staff are very polite

We have been to many Indian restaurants for Sunday buffets and have always found them good value with lots of choices for starters, mains and sweet

Well-presented, the flavours live up to the visual first impressions. Some new modern dishes as well as old favourites. Deals...

I haven't written a review for at least 2 years now..... As I only write my thoughts and feelings when I have genuine cause!

What a fantastic and amazingly bling restaurant AND with a wheelchair accessible loo!More importantly the food was great, initially I was devastated that there was no lime pickle but the lime tamarind sauce was a pleasant change.The service was perfect, friendly and the owner came over for a chat to explain the dishes - I had a crispy chicken dish which was very different.All round a very worthwhile refuelling stop and we will return.

Always had good food from the Toran. The staff always remember us and accommodate our children. My favourite dish is the chicken tikka saag. The Sunday buffet is also worth a visit for trying dishes you wouldn't normally have

Our evening visit to Toran was an unplanned one. Studying the menu revealed that this is no 'ordinary' Indian restaurant. Although there are many 'old favourites' available there is an extensive selection of less often encountered dishes. We were impressed with the range of fish dishes and vegetarian dishes in particular. The dishes we chose were all delicious and were delicately flavoured rather than relying on the excess salt and oil/ghee which is so often prevalent in UK Indian restaurants. Service was perfect and the restaurant clean and comfortable. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Toran is a very quiet Indian restaurant on A36 in the middle of no where. No very busy on our visit but the food was very good but did seem a bit expensive. I would still recommend.

A couple of weeks ago, we decided to stop off on the way back from a Salisbury shopping trip. We hadn't been for quite a while, just under a year, I reckon. We were shown to our 'usual' table, didn't think much of it though, and sat, menus in hand, ready to peruse it. The waiter appeared and asked if we wanted poppadoms to start and proceeded to engage us in conversation, he commented that I had changed my hair, I was dumbstruck....how lovely....he had remembered us. We ordered, I always have lamb, mostly Achari Gosht, a very tasty dish I must add, but decided on Lamb Rogan, the waiter remembered that too, I was impressed, with him and the food! Try this restaurant, it may not be packed but don't let that detract from how good I'd forgotten it was.

I have driven past here a number of times but only visited recently. The food was excellent and service very good. I think the outside appearance had put me off originally but the food was better than I expected . I will return thank you.

Top notch! The food is excellent and we left very satisfied. We passed a local who mentioned he always takes food from here as well. Service very friendly and efficient. Taste - just the right amount of spice. We would gladly come back and taste the rest of the menu.

We visited Toran because we were staying overnight in Warminster and I'm an avid reader and reviewer of Tripadvisor and all the reviews we'd read were very positive.The appearance of the restaurant is a little out of the ordinary, with its position on the A36, the neon lights and the outside children's play area. It looked more Happy eater/service station stopover than serious restaurant.Don't let appearances deceive you, Toran is serving excellent, healthy and authentic Indian food.Many years ago I visited the Indian YMCA in London that opens it's doors to the public and is very popular with people of all races, including Indians because of the quality of the food and its authenticity. I believe its still open to this day.Toran is on a par with that. If you love Indian food and happen to be in this area of Wiltshire give it a go...Excellent!

My adult daughters and I are on vacation from the USA and we're driving back from our day in Bath. We were hungry and were looking for some place "just off the road to eat". We weren't expecting anything grand, just needed to eat something. Oh my what a wonder find! Wonderful Indian food and friendly service. What started out as "just a place to stop" turned into a highlight of the day. Don't miss this place!

Called on the off chance here and what a fund. The premises are bright and welcoming.The food was first class cooked beautifully.The staff from front of house to servers could not be more helpful.Really glad we called in .

We drove past the restaurant initially and were unsure about returning. After a drink in a local pub we decided to go back and were certainly very pleased we did. The service was excellent, attentive but never intrusive. The menu was extensive and the sweet and sour lamb dish with apricots was wonderful. Certainly something I'd never seen offered in an Indian restaurant before. Do not be put off by the roadside position, pull in and have a great meal.

On holiday in the area Restaurant was clean Staff very polite and helpful. Food was lovely and tasty Nan bread was soft and fluffy Would recommend this restaurant and would definitely go again if in the area Was a lovely meal

you are made very welcome, the staff are very friendly the food is fresh cooked. if you don't know what to have let the staff choose for you, there is lots of choice. lamb rogan josh is a must.

This Indian restaurant is not new to me, and I have no connection with the Toran in any way except as a customer.I have been eating in or buying take-always here for a few years now, but the restaurant just goes from strength to strength. It differs from any other I know in West Wiltshire. There is no restaurant taste here, every Toran House Speciality dish has a different flavour from the next one, whatever you order. It is really a good idea to ask the staff about the various dishes, and you will receive excellent advice from them.I recently arranged with the management a few days in advance to prepare a meal for 5, suitable for me and my daughter's family which included children under 8 years old. The manager recommended a starter of various items, some of which were standard menu items and some especially prepared for us. They included vegetarian and meat dishes with a specially prepared salad to compliment them. Everything had such fresh flavours and was light enough to increase our hunger! For the mains he recommended an (especially made for us) Bangladeshi Chicken Korma which would be suitable for the children and anyone else who would like to try it! This was nothing like the normal tasteless, sweet, creamy (British!) Korma you normally get. This was tending to a medium heat, softened by a small amount of milk, but the spicing a revelation. Clear herbal tastes were present, though nothing like European cooking. We loved it, as well as the other dishes that accompanied it.I believe that the restaurant will try to accommodate any customers wishes provided they are given a few days to organise it. Our experience was a top class meal, food that was different and perhaps nearer to what you would get in the Indian sub-continent. In any case, a wonderful and mouth-watering experience. The cost, just the normal amount I would pay at this restaurant for standard house specialities.By the way, NO excess fat here. It really is the Healthier Choice they claim and have won prizes for!Well done, Toran.

Highly recommended... food was excellent and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Definitely somewhere we will return in the future!

We came across this restaurant when visiting the area. We were very pleasantly surprised how good the food was. I had chicken passanda which was very tasty and had a very generous amount of chicken. My husband had Rajasthani lamb which he enjoyed but would have liked it a bit hotter. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed the meal and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Heerlijk gegeten bij dit gezellig Indiaas restaurant. Het aanbod is werkelijk overweldigend. De bediening is aardig en behulpzaam. Leggen veel uit over het eten en geven tips. Het eten was super lekker en meer dan genoeg. Jammer dat we niet de tijd hadden om nogmaals daar te dineren.

We have used the Toran on a regular basis for over six years. There is always a warm welcome. The staff always take the time to explain their dishes and get to know your tastes and limitations. it is the first restaurant we can leave them to choose our meal when we cannot decide. We have never had a bad meal and would highly recommend it. Being vegetarian myself it is a pleasure to be offered such a wide range of dishes. Very often I am lucky if I have a choice of two dishes. The menu is also changed on a regular basis so there is no chance of getting bored of the choices available

We been to toran several number of times never had a bad meal from there the staff at the toran are always helpful and friendly I particularly like the chicken tikka Massala and I highly recommend we are very proud to have such a lovely Indian restaurant in our local community

The food is fantastic and recommend this place to all my freinds and family and the staff are polite and good manner and very helpful!!

We have been visiting Toran for takeaways and meals for the last 3 years and they have been brilliant every time! The food is fantastic and the staff are always friendly and kind. We have recently moved further away but still get our takeaways from here due to great quality food and service.

Food excellent Staff excellentWhat more can I say. I don't think you will find a better more authentic Indian restaurant anywhere.Eat in or take away there is no difference to the quality of the food.

Toran Indian cuisne has given Toran (honorific gateway) a whole new meaning.This horrific gateway will enlighten you to world poor tasteless food along with a large dollop of bad service. Seriously the worst Indian food I’ve had "and I’ve been to some pretty bad places". I ended up having one spoon of their microwaved cuisine and didn’t touch it again. After asking for the bill, the waiter simply popped the full plates of grub on his squeaky trolly and wheeled it away without saying another word. ‘I’m guessing its normal for all customers to leave full dishes and expecting the customer to happily cough up the bill’ God knows what happened to my full dishes, my guess is, its bagged, frozen and now awaiting its turn for a blast in the microwave for the next poor unsuspecting customer. " Not a bad business model" . hmm...

I dont know where to start... How can an Indian food be so awful...We started with burned and dried papadoms with Coke that had no Fizz (God knows how long it was opened for).Followed by 2 dishes for main course - Chicken Jelfrazi and Chicken Nega...It was canned microwave tomatos with onions and some chicken in it ... didn't have any taste...On top of the "exceptional" food the staff where so rude as well... Although the restaurant was empty we had to wait 20 min to get the bill and pay for it...I would avoid this restaurant at all cost and pop in to Macdonalds ....

This is a stunning restaurant the food is so much less oil based than other Indian restaurants and it shows by glorious tasting food that is much healthier than the normal Indian Fayre do try it

Full range of authentic Indian cuisine. The service was friendly and efficient in a very pleasing environment. Vegan, vegetarian and a full range of traditional dishes made it a perfect menu for a varying group of tastesReasonable but basic selection of winesKids of course well catered for

Four of us visited the Toran restaurant yesterday evening, and we are so glad we did ! My mum said its the best curry she's had outside of India ! This place ticks all the right boxes: Nice ambience , friendly service, very clean , smart and comfortable , great food, very fresh and good quality ingredients, a varied selection of dishes with a real depth of flavour , and nice Indian beer on tap! We will definitely go back again when nearby again. Hopefully soon. Exceptional !

Used the car park for overnight motorhome stop. Ate in the restaurant, extremely tasty and a picky 11 year old catered for very well. Surprise at the low total on bill as well

This is one of the best Indian meals we have had and sevices with a smile. We stopped here with Britstops in our motorhome and will definitely stop again, it's actually worth a detour.

Really good Indian food, very tasty and not swimming in oil. Even the pickles to go with the popadoms are different and delicious.
