Trishna in Ribble Valley

The Trishna restaurant has been open for quite a long time now. If I am being absolutely honest I never used to be a fan of their food. Recently however it seems it has undergone massive change. The food now is truly a match for any Indian you could name - that includes the well known Shajan on Longsight road

We went to the trishna restaurant in Whalley on Saturday and the staff were very friendly and also recommended dishes for us to try. We pre booked a table but as we had more people coming than expected we informed them and they adjusted our seating arrangement straight away. The food was also amazing and we all thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service We then went to the takeaway today, Me and my partner, just ordered a curry and was also recommended to try their new pizzas and we were both very impressed with the quality and taste of the food. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and we will definitely be ordering from here again.

Me and my mother went to this restaurant last night, and the service was appalling! AVOID AT ALL COSTS. we have been here a few times before and never had any issues, however we went into the restaurant last night and felt an unwelcomed atmosphere. One of the staff members did not speak any English what so ever, he was walking round with pure attitude! We tried to ask for some boxes to take some food home with us and they were just thrown on our table and they did not listen to us as to how many we wanted they then tried to charge us for the foil boxes (as the ones they originally gave us caused our curries to leak everywhere!) when we asked for this to be exchanged they gave us a smug and snarky look, the little one was almost laughing. When we walked out they slammed the doors behind us, we were not rude in anyway and we will never be coming back to this restaurant despite us being here a few times before! The food was OK, but the service was appalling. My mother also had a very bad stomach after eating here and we have both been going to Indians for over 20 years and never experienced this! Looks like it has new staff or under different management from last time but AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! RUDE UNWELCOMING AND OUT RIGHT NASTY people working here!!

We ordered a takeaway for 5 people and found it first off to be on the expensive side totalling just short of £120! When the food arrived we found one meal to be missing. We rang the restaurant and first of all they told us to thoroughly check (not that we hadn't obviously done this prior to ringing!). When I confirmed this item was missing their response was "we are closing soon and the delivery man has left so we can't provide it however, if you send some bank details to a number they provided, they would refund the amount for the curry (hardly compensation for ruining someone's meal and spoiling the evening). We then sent the bank details and received nk response. We then contacted them further and are yet to receive a response or a refund. Besides this, the food certainly wasn't worth the price! It was average food and the choices we ordered (chicken option) were more filled with onions than actual meat and the naan breads and onion bhajis were very dry. Overall a huge disappointment sadly.

One of the best curries I have ever tasted. Attended for an evening meal and wasn’t disappointed - the food was exquisite, the staff were so polite and a credit to the owner. If you get a chance then go.

Absolutely repulsive . Awful food and the staff were even worse. The man that runs it clearly has mental health issues - he abused me and my friend because we complained about the food. I have no idea how this place is still open , it’s disgusting . Clearly people just go in after a few beers and tolerate the food because they can’t be bothered going anywhere else .

Late booking for 3 about 745pm. Arrived waited for table left at table asked to order and for napkins. Pop aroma arrived no drinks then drinks then sons starter. Then eventually mains. Ordered another wine. Food was not really edible. Rice gloopy. Practically no chicken in Biriani. My meal all tasted same despite being a tray. Eventually we left paid £95 and left £5 tip. Crap

Staying on a wee holiday near the restaurant so went in for a takeaway. All points are really as the place was welcoming; looked clean & comfy; and the staff were just lovely genuine people. Chapatis were okay. Rice was fine. The 2 meals both lacked flavour and heat. I aldo couldn't taste any chilli in mine at all unfortunately. I've eaten worse things, but I can make much better curries myself to be honest: & I'm no cook 😀

I have had what must be one of the best take aways ever, It was fresh , clean and thoroughly delicious. Well done and thank you

Lovely welcome on arrival,pleasant staff with nice decor and very clean. Menus already on each table. Service very good and food excellent,however soft drinks and white wine Malborough a total rip off. Lemon and lime £6 a pint more than the glass of red wine. Won't return as that put us off a family of 6 people dining.

We love this place, we've called in many times for an evening meal and always get a good friendly welcome from the proprietor. The food is very high standard and we.ve never been disappointed. Our favourites the Tandori with vegetable curry. It's always evolving as they regularly redecorate too. A really good place to eat and highly recommended.

Great food and service. Especially from Aleena. She was so welcoming and went the extra mile to ensure we had a great meal. We enjoyed tandoori lamb chops followed by chicken shashlik and it was delicious.

Went out for tea tonight, first time here recommended by our son who had eaten here recently. Staff were polite, friendly and informative, food was really tasty and plenty of it, reasonably priced, a very enjoyable evening!

We enjoyed some very tasty food . The curry was delicious. It was a nice place to spend the evening , good location and great service was provided. Worth the visit.

A nice choice of Indian dishes very well cooked. Wine prices very reasonable. A nice atmosphere, very pleasant and attentive staff.

We booked a table of 16 for my 50th birthday celebrations. Usually that kind of number causes chaos especially when paying separately but not here. I didn't get the man's name but he was amazing! He was extremely organised and made sure everyone was served promptly and properly and kept us all fed and watered. He was extremely organised also with the payments, we were so grateful and impressed. A lovely guy, great service from all staff too and everyone enjoyed their food. We'll be back next time we're in town.

Becoming a bit of a regular here. Like the place inside and whilst it's normally quiet it was a busy Mother's Day evening. As a result service was a little slower but very professional and friendly. Enjoyed our food. Asked for a large (250ml) red...

Had a meal here on news year day 6 of us the staff were friendly and very helpful would recommended and will be going back

We were staying at a caravan sire near by and the original restaurant we were booked in to for New Year’s Day was closed due to covid we only found out by a note on the door no text to say cancelled we were at...

Yet ANOTHER delicious Chicken Shashlik enjoyed by my wife and I at The Trishna last night. Truly scrumptious. Mirroring that very same level of superb customer service we received throughout the whole evening, its flavours were awesome. Can HIGHLY recommend.

First time sitting in. Liked the finish of the place and the waiter who served us was great. Food was good. Decent poppadoms and pickle tray, chicken chat and mains of chicken tikka korai and chicken passanda plus a garlic bread and chilli rice. Decent...

Had a couple more here and I don't think the quality and flavours are good enough. As it is my favourite cuisine and I am new to the area I need to find a better one!!

We went in on a Wednesday evening, quite late in the evening. There were 4 of us on a table, we had a fabulous meal and a couple of drinks. I had a mixed kebab and a chicken jalfrezi with mushroom pilau rice with a...

Visiting friends I thought our takeaway meal was very good. Perhaps a little expensive for take away (mainly operates as restaurant) but still good. Onion Bhaji looked good (no sharing!!) and my garlic chicken chilli was very good. The rest was fairly standard take away...

Food was terrible and the service worse! Curry was stale and cold, and it took ages to arrive. I wouldnt recommend.

We ordered a takeaway which we collected. The rice and naan breads were stone cold, not even a hint of warmth in them. The curries were hot though so clearly the rice and naan were not freshly made. The curries themselves were disappointing. They were...

I got just vindaloo + garlic naan & I got exactly that wow.. the naan was huge, the dish that was served wasn't too hot (so you could enjoy it no fat to it) the staff were mint, they had cubicle's (rather than just Tables)...

Wonderful. Had a lovely family meal with my dad and family and meal and the service was fantastic. The staff where very kind and attentive, I would highly recommend this restaurant. Best Wishes Catherine

Can't really go wrong with Indian food so we decided to go here on 31st December and surprised we could actually book a table so we did and arrived at 745pm for a 815pm booking. It wasn't until 9pm that we were sat down and...

Used to visit this restaurant years and years ago and it was always OK. Been a couple of times since we moved to Whalley but it seems to have gone downhill. Ordered a take out last night and on the take away menu that we...

It's been a while since we came for the buffet. Have always had very good meals from the menu. The buffet was a bit of a disappointment with starters all dried out in the warming cabinet. Curries were all fine but would have enjoyed some...

Stellar as always, I’m yet to have a bad meal. The lads are all’s friendly bunch and definitely won’t shy away from a bit of banter whereas staff in other establishments choose a “yes sir, yes sir, 3 bags full sir” approach, these lads truly make you feel like one of their own! Cheers for the Korhai recommendation Kai.

Living locally we have been coming here for over 25 years and the food and service is always very good, and with the same friendly family. We usually purchase a takeaway and have found it excellent, especially the Dhansak and the samosas too are delicious! Would highly recommend.

I read some of the reviews here and it becomes clear that a lot of the criticism has come from people who can’t take criticism themselves. The lads at Trishna are all firm but fair and take a no nonsense approach to business. Sometimes people of a more headstrong nature see this as a challenge but I’ve known Dillon and the lads long enough to know they are a lovely family who would do anything for their customers provided they are treated with respect and dignity. That is not much to ask of at all therefore I regard the more negative reviews with regards to service nonsense. I can vouch for my local Indian! With regards to the BBC lady. We all had a good laugh about her and her outlandish claims. Mrs Walter Mitty anyway superb meal as always lads, see you next week.

Reasonable food, Small portions advertised “happy hour” £5.95 per main course (some exclusions) includes rice. Informed prices have changed still advertising the £5.95 offer on social media. Eventual refund of £6. Customer relations a big negative!!

My son and I ordered 2 meals for takeaway. We went to pick it up, and had a beer whilst waiting. We paid £27.60. We thought it was expensive, but hoped the meals would make up for it! How WRONG we were... jeez The chicken in my dish was chewy and bland! No flavour at all.. and neither meals were as described on the menu. My sons dish had no scotch bonnet chillies which he was expecting as it had a particular mention on the menu. (He likes a hot curry) We has ordered 2 pilau rice but got one boiled and one insipid yellow colour, which I can only assume was their interpretation of pilau rice? There were no free popadoms or chutneys as is usually the case these days? And, when we checked the menu we had been overcharged by more than £3? Plus we had been charged for 2 pilau rice, when there was only one and one boiled? So I contacted Trishna by messenger on Facebook rather than go back down on a busy Friday night, to save embarrassment for them in front of their customers. I asked for my money back as the meal was substandard and we had been over-charged to boot! It would be easy just to transfer the money back into my sons account as he had paid by card. Of course they refused. And after repeated requests for my money back, they still refuse to budge. So this week I am going to Trading Standards office to complain, and I honestly feel like writing to BBC Watchdog/Rip Off Britain! Grrrrr this has made me so angry. Imagine how many people they do this to on a regular basis? I know it’s not a great deal of money.. but it all adds up and they must make a fortune by adding a few pounds here and there to what is already overpriced and substandard! I recommend that you avoid this place and find an alternative eating establishment. I only wish I had done!

It was our first visit to Trishna and certainly won't be our last. An imaginative menu, beautifully set up tables and friendly waiter, Sami, contributed to a very enjoyable meal. The food was fresh, tasty, hot and aromatic. We shared a lamb puri and onion bhaji starter, both of which were delicious. Our two signature main courses were excellent as were the accompanying nan and chappatis. A gem of a place.

I have now been several times to Trishna's and every experience was superb.The food is of th highest quality and standard, and prepared to exactly how mild, or strong you like your curry. The staff are all also extremely friendly, and make sure you are well looked after when you are there.Do yourself a favour and visit this Gem in Whalley.Very family friendly too.

We went for the early bird special and expected smaller portions but what we got was four 10p sizes pieces of chicken in a watered- down soup which honestly looked and tasted like a cheap jar of sauce that had oodles of water added and no curry spices in it - just a lot of sugar . The 'pilau rice' was akin to boil in the bag but with less flavour. It might have had a touch of yellow food colouring added to it but that was all . None of the staff came anywhere near us to ask if our meal was ok ,now we know that's because they knew what the answer would be . I queried the lack of spices with the waiter who brought our bill and he assured me quite rudely that pilau rice should not contain any spices ! Presumably the name pilau means water !

They advertise an early bird menu option which at first glance looks a good option. However, as the saying goes if it sounds and looks too good to be true it probably is ,. In my opinion it definitely is.

Have been to Trishna a few times in the past and enjoyed it. Having not been in a while it was nice to see the place had had a refurbishment. The service was good and we weren't kept waiting for anything. Personally I didn't think the food was as tasty as I have had here in the past, maybe I just didn't order well but I thought the food a little bland, however my fellow diners seemed happy enough with their meals.

mediocre food, not the best service as there were not mant people in the restaurant for a friday evening.

Nice restaurant with a good atmosphere and pleasant staff. Food good but small portions. Only around six smallish pieces of meat in each curry.

Four of us went on Saturday night, and it was busy as expected. Not been before but it feels like a nice place. Very friendly staff. Unfortunately, it took 45mins for starters and then even longer for mains. That's too long, even if it was busy. Shame. Maybe we should have had poppadoms to keep us going!

As always, the gents at Trishna did not disappoint. The menu has something for everyone and personally speaking, the Tandoori king prawn dish has solidified itself as my favourite dish. The other half swears by the special thali. A very pleasant family run, family orientated restaurant that i can’t recommend enough. Also there’s new gins, ales and beers on the menu which I can’t wait to sample! See you next week Trishna.

Very pleasant welcome on the busy Saturday night that we were there the waiters are extremely polite unfortunately the food really lets the side down with being very average and not just as good as a average supermarket ready meal the bread was served warm fresh and delicious my tandoori chicken was over cooked dry and not acceptable but since I was out with the family I unfortunately said nothing my main course was a word I cannot write on here and undercooked I have to say that one meal some kind of sizzling prawns arrived not sizzling but apparently they tasted good that was one happy peron out of 4 very polite persons if I ever end up here again by some freak of nature I hope with all my heart it gets better

Food was ok,asked a cheeky any chance of a complimentary drink,reply was,depends how big a tip you leave,a bit disappointed with that response,needless to say we didn’t get one

Not been in for a long while and decided to try the happy hour options. The food was good and we enjoyed ourselves although the soft drinks are a bit pricey for a little bottle of coke. Would go again.

I visited Trishna this week and we were greeted by very friendly staff. We were seen immediately and were offered a huge selection of premium drinks from several lagers on draught to many wines and spirits. Being an avid gin drinker I was pleasantly surprised at the very large selection they offered me. Shortly after ordering we were taken to our table and after a very short wait our starters arrived. I had lamb tikka jai puri, and the lamb was melt-in-your-mouth tender. I have never had a lamb dish that was this well cooked as well as being incredibly well spiced and flavoursome. After our starters were polished off our mains came, I had the tandoori mixed grill, the meat was all succulent and incredibly tasty, the portion size was almost too big but it was so delicious I finished the entire portion. If I had one gripe it’s that the toilets could stand to be a bit bigger. However this does not ditract from the great service, fantastic atmosphere, wide drink selection and delicious food at the restaurant.

Thoroughly good experience with a polite staff and great service. Not to mention top quality dishes and great food.

This place is very much a unique and homely restaurant ran by a fantastic family who are both charming and helpful and will do their utmost best for their customers.

Top Indian I couldn’t fault it. Very good decor and friendly staff. Thali dish was amazing, everything prim and proper and there was peroni on top. Good selection of wines for the Mrs too. We’ll be back lads.

I have previously eaten in the restaurant and found the food to be ok, nothing unique yet nothing bad. This was a while ago and I decided to order a takeaway just recently. The restaurant was quiet yet my food was nearly an hour later than agreed and when I complained about the wait time the waiter said ‘sh&& happens’. I asked if he thought it was acceptable to speak to any customer like this and he then said ‘yes cos you won’t be coming back’. He got that bit right. Very rude and he was being watched by a colleague who must have thought the same. I still waited for the food and to be fair it was ok, but I would say there are many Indian takeaways that have better food, prices and service. I can only assume it has customers due to location and convenience. Restaurants need to understand that service means everything and people will forgive a bad meal and return if they are treated well and assured.

Having an hour to spare. I enjoyed this experience. The staff were welcoming and the food as good as I expected, albeit an anglo-indian. Had a great bottle of Kingfisher.

There are plenty of good restaurants in Whalley - this is definitely not one of them. My recommendation is to avoid at all costs.

Early doors meal means a chat with the staff (family), unfortunately a family came in demanding free food or they would leave.... the language was disgusting, especially with a young family in toe, however the family dealt with the problem brilliantly, they were very upset but extremely professional.... I would have knocked the parents lights out with the language they used.

My wife and I visited one fri evening. Service was prompt and courteous - the food was really good - I had sag gohst which I really enjoyed - the chicken korai was also brilliant - well spiced with tender chicken. All in all a great meal - best Indian food we’ve had in ages

Iv been going to this restaurant for over 30 years and never had a problem..but today we went for the buffet & the starters where barely warm I asked for a small dish of a curry that wasn't on menu & straight away a got a hot potion, the rices all was warm for the firs time ever we really did not enjoy it to the point we won't be going back again what a shame all decorated beautiful & lost its flavo

In June 2016, my wife and I simply had to comment on the delicious Chicken Slashlik we had truly enjoyed at the Trishna. Following a major disappointment after recently ordering the very same dish at a prestigious London curry restaurant, we returned home to Whalley with a promise to immediately compensate and to make amends.

I must admit there was a time when after an encouraging start that the Trishna went off the boil ,but its back with a proverbial bang . I have eaten here several times in recent months and have never yet been disappointed . The food was always magnificent and the staff friendly and courteous .I am surprised it is considered inferior to the Indian restaurant a few miles away down the A59 because it shouldn't be. In my opinion this restaurant is far better .

Always eaten in before, but went for takeaway and was a little bit disappointed. Last time we went, we were very pleased, but the food was fairly ordinary this time and one order was served as chicken when prawn had been ordered. Didn't recognise the staff so may have changed hands, certainly the place has changed with a big bar sharing the waiting area, with a range of wines, beers, ciders, gins etc. Looks like its competing with the many other MicroPubs opened in Whalley over the past year or so. Street parking and one step down in to the restaurant. Open Sunday lunch. Happy Hours Mo-Thu 5-7, Fri Sat 5-6 starter £2.50 main £5.95 including Pilau Rice

Ate here for the first time in 15 years and thought it was much better than the reviews. The spiced lamb shank was the highlight. Modern interior, great service and good choice of beers. We will return

Will leave a review tomorrow. The food was great but I would like to talk to the owner about staff serving single spirits when the customers ask for double premium ones. Can I look at your cctv to prove or deny this? Then calling your customers s###s as they left didn't really make you look great. Ball is in your court.

Surprised when we went in the restaurant as there were only 2 other people in it which is unusual for a Friday evening.I like Tandoori food so asked the waiter if meat was cooked in a Tandoor oven.He said yes it was and I ordered a lamb tikka main course with rice and sauce along with a vegetable samosa as a starter.The samosa was very small the lamb tikka had been fried in fat.When I commented that the waiter had told me it would be cooked in a tandoor oven he told me they had fried it in order to make it more tender.Anyone enjoying tandoori food is advised to avoid this restaurant.I now know why there were only 2 other people there.

Special mixed thali is really good but not to spicy. Decor is nice and staff are friendly and attentive.

We had not read any reviews and went into Whalley as a last minute let's eat out! Trishna was very quiet so we were dubious but ultimately not dissapointed. We both really enjoyed our meals and wine. It was reasonably priced with very tasty flavours. The staff were polite and attentive. Will go again.

Great place for a group booking, there were 9 people in the group.

It’s a shame because it should be ok p. The price is very good but the food is just average . Whalley is a growing place and also attracts visitors from further afield. I would like Trisha to be a success. Hot food and better service

The food was ok, the service was terrible, even had to ask for cutlery for main meal, the ambience was more like being in a converted barn without the ball pool, nothing about it said indian

Everything about the Trishna in Whalley is right. From taking the booking, to seating you on time at nicely separated tables, with freshly laundered linen and napkins, a great choice of wonderfully tasty food, a wide assortment of drinks. The service is attentive but never intrusive, and suitably paced. All of this, EVERY time we come here.....and for a very modest bill. I cannot recommend the Trishna enough. I asked my friend, who could eat for England, after he had demolished his starters and mains,.... if he wanted a dessert; his reply was "Sorry no, I am rammed to the rafters" What more can I say?

Used to go 2/3 times a month to The Trishna, moved away for 8 years.What happened???Went last night 2 couples, the place was buzzing it was absolutely packed to the rafters, we thought great we are in for a treat.The service was terrible, I know they were busy but they didn't even smile, the only people ok were the barman and the nice older gentleman.Our food: Starters Tandori Lamb Chops, Tuna, King Prawn Puri,Seafood burger, apart from seafood thingy all starters were passable, not good but ok, but not hot.Mains: Tandori Chicken on the bone, Mixed Bhuna, Special Tika Massala and Tandori mixed Grill. All terrible, bland, lukewarm and the rice was wishy washy, Nan's doughy and Popadoms were stale.Service was non existent ( the lady waiter needs to learn some customer service skills and to learn to smile ) and the waiter never asked us if there were anything wrong with the meals even though the plates were nearly full, when the table was cleared.£1.90 for a small bottle of soda water was the icing on the cake!They even started dismantling tables around us and it wasn't late, there were still other in.Needless to say we won't be returning!!!!

We have just eaten at Trishna for the first time today and were very happy with the whole experience. The decor is contemporary and pleasing. The greeting was good and I was pleasantly surprised by the interesting range of beer on offer rather than being limited to just Cobra or Kingfisher.Our meal was good. My thali was excellent and caused "food envy" in my wife but she dealt with that by testing each dish. Her biryani was ok. We shall be returning.

So we were slightly drunk but not so I cannot tell a great plate when I get one and we took this one home to eat. The pricing was great and although they tried to charge us for Pilau rice when we wanted boiled rice, the mistake was immediately rectified. The boiled rice was included with some main plates and they were under £6 so for the quality and quantity is was truly superb. The chicken was great the flavours were great. It was quickly prepared and I cannot fault it one bit. I would have no hesitation to return for a sit down meal or another take away.

We visit this restaurant often, the inside has changed somewhat just recently making it more open and trendy. You can sit at the bar now for a drink whilst waiting for a table or a takeaway.Friends came over from Lanzarote and we had a lovely birthday meal. The food here is always superb and very tasty.Loving the referb.

the food was amazing when me and the family went, we've been to Trishnas a lot of times and every times the food and services in general are second to none! would definatly recommend it. affordable and brilliant food!

On a bank holiday, the pub we had chosen for an evening meal was not serving food! We had heard that this restaurant was there, so tried it and the service and food were excellent, not cheap but very good menu and we enjoyed a lovely evening in quiet, civilized surroundings with friendly service. Thank you..

Great place to go and dine for couple or friends but they don't seem to interested if you want take away.

Food was ok,but worst customer service we've known.made to feel like we weren't welcome,and we were just a burden.Wont be returning

Very quiet, but warm and comfortable on a cold night, good and friendly service, good food and not badly priced. Good wines at cheap prices. Step at front door is slightly raised from the street and then down into the restaurant. No more steps. On street parking. Didn't keep pestering us, but seemed genuinely pleased when we told them we enjoyed it.

We have visited Trishna for many years. Always really nice! We booked somewhere close to home for Christmas Eve and left due to disappointment. We decided to try the Trishna and it was amazing. They thankfully saved our evening.The shashlick was adored by us all and the staff could not do enough for us. We will continue to visit this great restaurant. Fantastic little gem.

There were 3 of us that called in without booking, it didn't seem that busy to me, we waited quite a while to be seated.We had popadoms with chutney which was just ok.Then we waited a good 45 minutes for our starters, I was just about to grab someone and say forget it we are going when they turned up, they had onion bhaji's and I had tandoori lamb chops, they left quite a bit of theirs and mine was way over seasoned.The mains took ages again, they said they were really busy I beg to differ. For main I had chicken tikka jalfrazi it was so bland.My mates wife had a chicken Afghan dish, she left most of it, and my mate had chicken tikka massala which he said was ok.I found this to be a very expensive meal with very poor food and service.I will not be returning.

Ordered a take away. Had it repeated back to me and went to collect. On arrival back home, was disappointed to find three items where not what I ordered. Never mind, couldn't be bothered to drive all the way back. Phoned to let them know and was told, "you are just out for some freebies", and "you are not one of our regulars". Lastly, and perhaps most concerning, was told "you need to speak more clearly when you order". Oh please. I fear for the future........

Avoid at all costs as this place is a sham. Absolutely no customer service and ignorant staff. Took them over 1 hour to bring us our starter after saying we were going to leave if was not brought soon it did eventually arrive but cold and very small portions and tasteless. Main course arrived cold yet again and very bland. We asked could they reheat they just ignored us. This place is very pricey for both quality and quantity. Never going back there and advise too not bother unless you want a disappointing night.. I wish I could give 0 stars but hey..

Having made a booking earlier in the week was looking forward to the evening. Arrived, on time, given a seat in the reception area. Our drink order was taken but never arrived. Left sitting 20 minutes with no drink or service. Told that despite our booking there was no table and not sure when available. Dreadful service. Walked out. Wouldn't advise for a special occasion. Wouldn't advise for any occasion.

I have tried out Trishna on two occasions, and I have made up my mind, I will NOT be returning again. Between 5-7 it is meant to be half price, but believe you me, it's a tiny amount, they are very stinjy with their portion sizes, and to leave still feeling hungry, is not what we paid for, I will definitely NOT recommend or return. Also there is no atmosphere and it's freezing, it is always quiet, and I'd advise them to not bother with that offer and focus on their portion sizes. I hope this helps.

Fantastic choice of Sunday buffet and very reasonably priced. Staff are polite and the whole restaurant is clean and well maintained

Place was empty on arrival while other places in whalley were already full and lively. Had a fish curry which was supposed to contain coconut milk ..all I can say is that the sauce was gloopy and sweet .. like the kind of sauce from a jar Basic cooking of a sauce would imply you would be able to see spices used in the sauce..but as I said the sauce was just gloopy!!!!It was horrible. This food was definitely not worth the money and I won't be going again..there's a reason why these places are empty...it's an insult to people who work all week and pay good money to have a nice night out only to be given food like that .My husband is Indian and is a good cook.. I won't write his comments down!!!

Well guys...this has got to be the best Indian restaurant I have visited...it was simply awesome!!!! Being from Glasgow, I have sampled some lovely Indian meals in my time but this has to be the best by far. Staff were so attentive & friendly, we all felt part of their family....FANTASTIC!! I can 100% recommend Trishna for an amazing meal & night out.

Wouldn't normally leave a review but it was absolutely disgusting. Me and my family used to go years ago, thought we would go for an anniversary and what a disappointment. The food was cold, tasteless and when we told the manager that the food was cold, he then started being rude. After that we wanted to leave so we said how much and he said we had to pay full price, even though we did not have much, would not recommend this establishment to anyone! I would have years ago but not now.

Went to Trisha on Sunday 25th sept, it was absolutely terrible, cold food and unhelpful staff, told them that the food was cold and all they did was turn up the temperature on the bay Marie's, (which should be warm anyway!) there was 4 people in our group and no one had hardly anything to eat but we still had to pay full price for the Sunday buffet, the staff was so rude because we complained, it was a really a really good resturant a few years ago, but would not recommend this resturant to anyone now

Came here about 9.15pm on Sat night...very busy but given drinks and menus in the waiting area immediately. Soon seated and the meal was amazing. Starters were chicken chatt, a meal in itself...and mixed kebabs with mint sauce cooler...both tasty and beautifully served.Mains one chicken curry and one lamb sizzler with spices...one mushroom rice and one chips...with a fruit sauce and a salad. We shared all the mains and enjoyed each mouthful...plus three pints of kingfisher a shade over £40....for the two of us. Lovely staff and a great meal after being kept waiting an hour ....at which point we walked out un fed.....at another Clitheroe Indian for a pre booked table..Thankyou Trishna for a lovely meal.

We went to the Trisha for the first time, using a £30 voucher from a local radio station.Parking was a bit difficult as a first time visitor to the village (ended up driving about a mile up the road to turn around) but it was most definitely worth it.The restaurant is very pleasant and has a relaxing atmosphere, and the staff were excellent.We were shown to our table immediately and ordered our drinks - two cokes an half a lager. The Coca Cola was flat, but when we told the waiter, he immediately offered to replace them (we only replaced one as our son prefers his flat, and they left him with both cokes, free of charge).The menu was very extensive, with some unusual (but delicious sounding) dishes that you don't normally see, such as Trout; Venison and Pheasant. Unfortunately the Venison wasn't available, but the menu does say "when available" on some of the dishes.We started with poppadoms and chutneys,then I had the Mixed Thali (be warned, you get a lot), my wife had a Chicken Korma, and our son had Garlic Chicken. All three dishes were delicious and of a sufficient quantity that we couldn't fit in a dessert, although perhaps the one downside is that there isn't a massive selection of desserts - but as we were full, it really didn't matter.In total, our bill came to just under £43 (before the voucher was deducted), which I think is excellent value for the quality of the food. Our most expensive item was my Mixed Thali at £12.95 but that did include rice and a huge Naan bread.We will definitely be returning, and soon.

Went here with a few friends last month and it did not disappoint. Me and my friends have always spoken of the Trishna in high regards and our last visit just proved why. Highly recommend the thali dish and the Bihari biriani which was one of the best birianis I've ever had. Top night.

Food is tasty and plenty of it. Staff are very accommodating and willing to please their customers. Prices are fair . Worth a visit

First class Restuarant where we were looked after in a most excellent manner. The service was of the highest, choice of menu equally so and the general ambience of the place made us so welcome. Will certainly return and continue to applaud the management in a well run, local eating house.

We went for a meal on Bank Holiday Monday, there was only us (2) in the restaurant, the food was terrible, the fish was RAW, the Onion Bhajis were soggy and the main was tasteless!!! We told them but they could not have cared less, very disappointing used to be a great eating place.

Ordered a takeaway this evening. Over 45 minutes late. Food soggy and barely warm. Drinks and popadums forgotten. When we called to advise they'd forgotten some items we were told they were not prepared to send the items as they had used a taxi to deliver. Never used Trishna before and most certainly will not use them again. Terrible, especially given the standards of all other eateries in Whalley.

We have not been to the Trishna for many years and after tonight I cannot believe what we have been missing. The food,service and cleanliness are second to none. We had a leisurely meal and all courses from fish,vegetarian and chicken were well presented and delicious.We had two courses and drinks which came too £45 per couple we would thoroughly recommend and will definitely be going again, thank you and see you soon.

We called in for the Sunday buffet. There were eight starters, two types of rice and nine curries. It was all spicy and very tasty. Service was excellent. Excellent value at £10 a head.

Last night's Chicken Shashlik dinner at the Trishna was without doubt, the best Indian meal we've enjoyed during our 40 years of marriage. We knew we were in for a real treat when the dish was brought sizzling to our table. It sounded good. It looked good.It WAS good. So VERY good, in fact. The delicate pilau rice together with a beautifully prepared and slender naan-bread that accompanied the meal, were equally as good. A DEFINITE winner for the Trishna and we HIGHLY recommend.
