Vill-Ind in Castle Point

Had a takeaway this evening and it was the worst Indian meal we have ever had. Firstly the order was supposed to be delivered in 45-50 mins, after 1 hour we called to ask about the delay and just got a lot of abuse from the manager, who said it would be another 10-15 mins. After the delivery we discovered only half the order had been sent, another call to the restaurant resulted in the rest of the order arriving quite quickly, we detected that the delivery person had only given us one bag instead if 2. The food was cold. Apart from the mixed grill and tge Chicken Korma the rest of the meal was very poor, the onion bahjees were inedible, the lamb tikka tough and tasteless. We will never order from this restaurant again.

me and my boyfriend came out for a treat and were extremely impressed with how good the service was. A young man named ethan was extremely helpfull when i first arrived i think he deserves a raise.

It was a delivery, we ordered online through village India restaurant, the meal costing more than £30 arrived an hour later, the food was awful, tasting partly of burnt or rancid oil, the pots of sauce I’m guessing were supposed to be mint sauces tasted sour & split when poured on rice, the onion bhajis were so over cooked, a complete waste of money, never again!,!,,,,,,

We went for our family Christmas Dinner and were made so welcome The young children were welcomed, the increasingly tipsy grownups were kindly tolerated and everyone was made happy welcome and relaxed. Thank you. xxx

Been waiting for a such a long time to see a pure Indian restaurant in Southend. Excellent service and food is very tasty

Six of us had dinner this evening. Service attentive, food really excellent, and they were kind enough to offer us a complimentary drink at the end. Recommended!

Visit often very friendly staff and wide range of dishes. Very varied and worth trying something new.

Had a lovely meal here with my boyfriend last night, friendly staff and great quality food. Really reasonable here, we had a starter and a main each, sides, and a few alcoholic drinks and the bill only came to £49 for the both of us!

I've been eating the takeaways from Village Indiya for many years. I think the current owners are more consistent and produce better quality food. The service is always polite. It's nice to enjoy a cool beer whilst you wait too!

Service was great no faults there, food was nicely presented too, clean and crisp see the photos, but everything was just average tastewise and currys on the small size(small dishes used) also very small bits of meat in the currys, nothing too exciting for us...

Recomiendo este lugar a mis clientes y buenos amigos, me ha sido tener llamadas sin parar de contar mis clientes de negocios, proveedores y a mis amigos me dicen que ha estado allí un sábado por la noche y se han estado esperando y esperando y esperando! Así que pensé que ya es suficiente, así que reservamos una mesa para sábado por la noche y fuimos allí no hay menús en la mesa tuvimos que preguntar por ellas!Pedimos algunas represas Papa y después que tomaron nuestro pedido! tardó un poco en llegar, diría que más de una hora! La puerta estaba abriendo mucho y el viento estaba entrando en como estábamos sentados en la parte trasera del restaurante nos pareció que el frío, así que empecé a buscar estaban más que buscan Aster comida para llevar a todos los clientes en el restaurante.Fueron 26 clientes en el restaurante 3 camareros principales pero no podían atender a todos nosotros!Una señora estaba decía que la comida era para secar una señora había quemado verduras.Mi compañero preguntó acerca del café de licores que no sabía la diferencia que fuimos a preguntar y cuando pedimos una equivocada salió.Él era asienten todo el tiempo pero que no hablaban mucho inglés! Venga a chicos si estoy poner mi nombre por favor, resuelvan esto!Si no me Chase mi café nos hubiera estado allí 3 horas en vez estuvimos allí 2 horas y 40 minutos.Así que me gustaría pedir disculpas a mis clientes, proveedores y amigos.Si tienes 2-3 horas de sobra sábado noche, que es el lugar para ti.La comida estaba bien pero no está a la altura de mi primera visita.Ambiente como estar en una habitación en la parte delantera.Lo siento, no puedo volver.Hay muchos otros buenos restaurante hindú es ahora si quería asiento como que no me habría ido fuera que se olvidaron de nosotros!

Girls night out was made even better by the stunning taste and presentation of the food here. Service was efficient and friendly. This is our third visit and it keeps getting better. House white wine, (maitre dry white) £13 very reasonable. Fully recommend village indiya.

Used to be the star of india but this place is much better, service great, good pricing,never been dissapointed in the food served, good down to earth place

Great Food, Pleasant staff, Clean, Available parking, Their banquet night offer is awesome . Sometimes everyone should try once. Best Indian in Benfleet.

Nice ambient seating and setting, very clean and good atmosphere. Very welcoming and pleasant staff, with easy parking features. Food delicious, well presented; clean plates all round !

Great food, fantastic value. Very very tasty specially murog mussallam. Cheese nan and keema nan is awesome. Everyone of us enjoyed a lot. Will visit again.

Popped in for a quick curry,very dissapointed with main courses,they were swimming in oil and loaded with salt.side dishes and rice were fine,drinks a bit pricey. Staff were indifferent,either new to the game or not really interested. Certainly not for us

Great food and staff pleasant .can park easily. Food very authentic and well presented.good style restaurant

We use these guys for our take away's. Cracking food, great selection with an extensive "chef's special". Can't fault...prompt service and delivery....would defiantly recommend.

After debating where to eat in Benfleet, we came onto tripadvisor to find the best, and stumbled upon the Village Indiya. We managed to book and after a short drive, was not disappointed!

I saw some great reviews and thought we would give it a shot.

First class service, food wonderful and staff so friendly and helpful. Have tried a couple of local restaurants for convenience but was left disappointed and wished we had got in the car and come here.

I went here with my family and it was lovely...if you like Indian food then I would try here. They have a range of all different curries and they will make one for you if you want one that's not on the menu, must try...

We got there around 8pm and was greeted by a nice couple that could not do enough for you.

I have eaten in a couple of times and had a few take aways more recently.

We arrived at 9.pm after a short drive from central London. Upon arrival we were greeted by a lovely couple who made us feel so welcome. From the starter to the dessert it was fantastic. I can recommend this to everybody and can only say that I wish it was in central London as it's the best Indian I have ever had.

We have had lots of Indian meals from various restaurants locally and in the Ilford area, as well as in India, but the food here is so perfect, you can taste all the ingredients. They are happy to accommodate any personal requests. We've only used here as a delivery service, but will eat there soon. Can't recommend enough.

This is our local Indian which never fails to please with its interesting and diverse menu and very friendly service. Well worth a visit.

On the whole this is a fab takeaway. I have never eaten in the restaurant but I love the takeaways. The flavours are subtle, its not at all greasy, the Dhansak is totally addictive - and is my friday night treat!

9 of us went here for a joint birthday meal. It was a Sunday evening and very quiet.

Excellent food, staff are very helpful with the menu I would recommend this restaurant anyone. Decor is very well done and very clean. Great night out looking forward to our next visit.

Excellent food, the best in the area. Helpful friendly staff. Extremely clean. Reasonable prices. A must for an excellent night out!! Definitely would recommend to everyone !!

My boyfriend and I had dinner here last night. The service was fantastic. Friendly, professional and quick. The food was exceptionally tasty and we didn't have to wait long at all. The restaurant is clean and well-presented. We noted that although they were fairly busy, our needs were catered to throughout our evening. We had a personal touch of an ice cream cake with candles for my boyfriend's birthday! I would highly recommend dining here! Our food was a very high standard, the staff were lovely, the restaurant was comfortable and clean. Spot on!

We had a family celebration and 12 of us ate here on 14 March. The food was excellent, promptly served and the service efficient and friendly. We would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Friendly service! Very nice atmosphere lovely food! Defiantly recommend to other people. Good atmosphere and really friendly service.

If you love great tasting indian food, this is the place to go. You cannot fault the food!

Eleven family members enjoyed a very good meal on Friday 14 March 2014. Service excellent, variations of meals catered for with no problems. Everyone enjoyed their meal without exception in a good atmosphere. Can recommend this restaurant.

Since our very first visit to now, we have always received excellent friendly service. Staff are happy to recommend dishes and advise when requested. The food is beautiful, everything is done to a high standard. As well as good service and lovely food it is also good value for money.

We have visited this restaurant Several times. Every time the food has been lovely and the staff are excellent. We have a two year old and they are excellent with her she loves going there too. It's just such a shame it's so quiet.

Tonight was our first time eating at this restaurant after only recently moving to Hadleigh and the food and staff were superb! Best korma I have ever had and my boyfriend also had a chef special which he really enjoyed we will definitely be visiting this place again! :)

I've never eaten in the restuarant, but had several takeaways from Village Indiya and it never fails to disappoint. A great selection of curries and flavours, do not put up with a mediocre experience elsewhere, try Village Indiya.

I don't like too spicy food but went for a meal with work colleagues who do and was outnumbered! We went mid week so was only half full but still a good atmosphere. The staff were attentive and friendly very accommodating. The restaurant was spotless. I opted for tandoori mixed grill which was served piping hot at the table. It came with a rice and vegetable dish and salad AND a starter for£12 all in! I have a big appetite but couldn't eat it all and it was delicious. Not going to help my expanding waistline as want to go again, and soon!

We visited here after friends told us they liked this restaurant. we are family of 6 and were warmly greeted by the team. . Nice meuns for food and drinks... Promptly served the papamums and welcome drinks.. just what we need..

We often get takeaways from this restaurant and decided one evening to eat in, we were the only people in the restuarant however I cannot fault the food. We often go out for a curry and the food was spot on, I had a chicken pathia nice amount of sauce and nice and spicy and my partner had a chicken tikka vindaloo, not the hottest around but was throughly enjoyed. This restuarant is huge and has alot of potentiona. We will visit again soon.

Don't go to Indian Restaurants very much as wife does not like them, but visited last night with son-in-law and Grandson and was pleasantly surprised. The menu is great with a lot of different choices from other Restaurants plus the usual. It was as good an Indian meal that I have had and would look forward to returning soon. Its very under-rated and was not full, but should have been. The portions are very good and the price is very reasonable. Roll on to. my next visit.

I have visited this Indian quite often with friends and family - the staff are welcoming and friendly.

Yet again another lovely meal at Village Indiya.Garlic Nan is to die for.We always say that if there was just one thing we could have that would be it!! Light with just the right amount of garlic.Excellent Sunday offer with a complimentary drink. What more can you ask for. We have tried many things on the menu & can honestly say we have never had a bad meal there. Yummy!

Wow what a restaurant. its an excellent setting, attentive staff and impressive menu. Its reasonable price and amazing service from the staffs.

Went for a curry at Village Indiya Very nice meal. I had the Balti chicken and a Bangladeshi starter . Friends tried various other curries all good. Excellent service. Recommended. Nice touch of a liqueur on the house.

Excellent food topped off with excellent service. A special mention also to Sarwar the owner who make you feel so welcome Thank you

We had a lovely meal, the food was amazing and the staff are very friendly. Would definately be going back.

Excellent. Been to wheelers and masa indian restaurants in area and both are not a match on this fantastic restaurant. Very good value. Dishes are tasty. Even been offered free drink with bill.highly recommend.

We visit this restaurant particularly when our friends are over from France (they love it and won't go anywhere else). During the last couple of years It has been consistently excellent, both food and service. You may have to wait a little longer for the food which is freshly cooked and beautifully presented. I have personally sampled many of the dishes and would say that for an 'English' Indian it is the nearest to the cuisine that I enjoy so much on my trips to Kerala,, brilliant. Our visits have always been on weekday evenings. I could not comment on the 'take-away' menu/service which I have not used.

We decided to give this restaurant a try after being weekly visitors when the restraunt was run by Shah and co.. We were very dissapointed with our food and also the waiters were very rude, we were asking advice on a dish and he just wasnt a bit helpful with any reccomendations at all. Very rushed between courses almost as if they wanted us out so they could close. We will not be returning but will drive to Grays, Essex to visit the REAL Village Indiya.

We try to go here fortnightly & the quality & service are very consistent.Its also very good value especially on a Sunday . Lamb Dosa & Lamb Cutlet starters. Gurkas Revenge & Murgh sel sela are our favorites for mains. Lovely light Nans & Onion Bhaji's.
