When we arrived there was only one table of people so expected the service to be pretty quick. They took our orders soon after we sat down. After waiting just over an our we asked when would be likely to get our starters as waiting this length of time is unacceptable. They said as as two of the starters were salmon it takes a long time to cook which is absolute rubbish. Soon after complaining the starters arrived, well, the salmon was inedible, so over cooked and burnt underneath. Also we had ordered a sharing meat platter which was served with raw onions. So we complained about the quality of the food that eventually arrived and gave us some pathetic excuses and that that according to their opinion the there was nothing wrong with the food. So after being there about an hour and a half we walked out without paying and went to the Thai Rooster next door which was the exact opposite, great service and food. All the time we were in the Vindaloo they were very busy dealing with take aways and deliveries, in fact a family of five arrived, ordered their food then left while we were still waiting for our starters. It's a shame because we have eaten there before and enjoyed good service and food, but were sorry to say will not be returning as this is definitely our worst experience of dining out. Just couldn't believe their attitude when we complained, so arrogant.

Went tonight for a meal food is faultless.But a shame has to be said about the head waiter in the restaurant. Have been served by this guy every time we have ventured in and he is very polite.Till the bill arrives .Gave him a seven pound tip no thank-you and he asked as I was paying buy card for the meal what I would like to add on.I work hard for my money and manners cost nothing.Hes been generously tipped each time we have been there .But has never once said thank-you afterwards.Think we stick to takeaways from now on And ide rather give my tips to the homeless charitys

My first visit , but my Madras curry was the best I have had for ages. The other members also thought the food was excellent. One of our party had eaten was very impressed, said it was the best curry he had eaten in the area. Keep up the good work.

The decor is dismal - grey walls, not even dim lighting, that might have been ok, just spot lights in the ceilings but almost turned off. There is literally no decoration at all - just tables, and very dim ceiling lights. I was greeted by a very nice waitress, she was good, but there was a very slow and unhelpful waiter who ignored me when I asked him to come over. I had to get up three times, once to ask for ice (which he didn't bring so had to get up again), secondly once the ice arrived, had to ask for ice that wasn't in a block and which would fit in my wine glass, thirdly to ask for the water I had ordered which didn't arrive. Poppadoms were nice, main course was like a pureed sauce with chunks of chicken with the consistency of baby food. Also very bland. Service, pretty appalling, food, very average, ambience - zero.

The special family occasion was spoilt. The rude waiter Peta was distasteful and slow even though the restaurant was empty. The food at best was poor and the food served was just about tepid and extremely bland. This is not an experience I intend to revisit. The cleanliness of the venue left a lot to be desired and food supervisory authorities need to look closely at this establishment.

Do not visit here if you have any sense, staff are very rude and unprofessional. The place was empty and now I know why. The young man told us that he couldn't tell woman his name because last time he did three woman fancied him and wouldn't stop shouting him. The food was luke warm and flavourless and the dishes where left on table whilst he chatted at the top by the kitchen. Iffy stomach afterwards 😫 There was no one to take booking all day as doesn't open until 4pm and answerphone was full. Save your money 💰

So…family meal booked for NYE. Seated on time for the booking, this place was busy for sure. Seats crammed and not much room to walkabout, no ventilation and no air con on for starters! Now the starters, took an eternity to arrive with no communication to let us know they will be here soon etc which wasn’t great! Starters finally arrived which felt like years! It was ok, small portions to be fair. After eating our starters they took years to take away our plates/cutlery, no explanation on how long the mains would be, we had to speak to the team and find out where it was! Some time later they arrived piping hot which was great! By this time the online deliveries and people picking them up was really busy and it looked like these where given priority but can’t say that for definite. Lack of communication I thought on this occasion. I just thought they had bitten off with more then they could chew and couldn’t cope with the demand on the night?? To top it off, deposits where paid in advance to secure the booking. When paying the final bill the deposits where not on the bill? We asked and they said we never paid them which was a lie! They even had the nerve to ask for proof? Really?? Bill finally paid but wasn’t a great experience in all honestly far too busy for them to cope! We would probably never go here again when it’s busy as it was disappointing. Sorry

Wow, wow, wow....absolutely love this place. I've been eating here for over 2 years and I have never been disappointed. Its come to the point that I trust this place so much that I don't even choose my own food, I just ask them to surprise me. Food is amazing. Best curry house ever! Reasonable prices and best of all... You can take in your own alcohol (sainsbury's over the road) love it. Brilliant service, especially when Mo is on, even though he might not smile very much, he's laughing inside and he's the best . Amazing staff, amazing service and amazing food

The restaurant has not been fitted out in indian style. Normally you would expect hindu arched door and window openings, plush tables and seats, and photographs of India on the walls etc...However, the food and service is generally good. The only issues with service we have had was 1) when they got our starters mixed up; 2) we once had to wait an excessive time for the bill when the restaurant was very busy.The menu is quite varied, and it contains dishes I have not previously heard of.The wine list is very restricted, especially if you want Rose Wine. However this restaurant allows to to bring your own drinks at a charge of £1 per person. This actually is a very good deal and it cuts down the cost of the meal considerably.Prenton, Birkenhead is not exactly a high class area, so I can forgive the restauraneur for not incurring the high capital cost of fitting out the restaurant in Indian decor.The resaurant provides good food and service at relatively low prices.

Me and my family collected an order from vindaloo tonight we never ever complain here it’s always lovely but tonight my vegetable rice and my mums biryani tasted like cleaning products, called the restaurant to make them aware in case any cleaning products found their way into the pans they use and got a lecture on a bhuna sauce... absolutely vile, all of the meals went in the bin and I’m just hoping that whatever cleaning products our food was cooked in are safely kept away from the food prep area in future.. would recommend if you like chicken in a fairy liquid and detol sauce

Visited on Wednesday evening only two other tables had customers felt like he was put out on asking for a table for two at 7.30pm. Given a menu which I didn't feel had as many chef specialitys as others that we have visited. Ended up ordering popadoms with dip tray that seemed watery even the mango chutney wasn't thick and a tandoori mixed grill that came out on sizzling platter the chicken on bone was very thin on meat and found the meal to be very salty, I'm not sure I would rush back!

Order a takeaway from here and it was hands down the worst curry I've ever had. No flavour or spice in any of the meals. Just a mixture of red bland slop in a tray. Ironically almost all the same shade of red. It's as if the chef didn't bother with looking at what he was making other then make it red, it will do. No vegetables other than 1 tiny tamoto? No onion, no spice. Just bright red sauce. All went into the bin. Waste if money. Sack the chef or whoever decided to allow this rubbish to leave the kicken. Shamefully excuse of a curry. Poppadoms are ok..

Went to the Vindaloo for my husbands birthday. There were 15 of us and we had a lovely big table all set up for us when we arrived. The poppadoms and pickle trays were very good with slightly different chutney's to what we get in other restaurants. We did have a fairly long wait for our meals but were kept informed and this was quite acceptable as we all wanted to be served together. I was amazed that our waiter largely even remembered who had ordered what!! The food was very good and the fact that you can take your own drinks is a big plus.

Have eaten in the restaurant many times food has been very good along with the service. Decided to try a takeaway I can honestly say it was just as good as eating in the restaurant. Very easy to order on line as you can view your basket and make changes before placing your order, payment is on delivery and you can asked for a copy of the bill to be sent to your email address. It stated on the website delivery would take an hour but arrived before time and the food was all in foil/ plastic containers and was piping hot. Excellent value for money and well worth trying if you fancy a meal at home.

Went here on Saturday night to celebrate my fathers birthday and from the moment we walked in the whole experience was appalling!!...firstly the noise was so loud that we all had to shout at each other to be heard,the restaurant itself was bland and resembled a motorway café rather than an indian restaurant,the staff were hopeless and unfriendly,once we were shown to our table they left us sitting there for over an hour,we had to ask them for menus,ask them for drinks,ask them to take empty glasses/bottles from the table and even call them over to tell them that we were ready to order,there didn't seem to be anyone in charge and the staff didn't have a clue as to what their roles were,customer service was shocking,when the food did eventually arrive to be fair it was actually quite nice but it is safe to say that we will not be returning to this shambles of a restaurant ever again!!! My wife and I made our feelings known to the staff who to our amazement looked shocked that we were not happy and offered no discount from the bill,also,we met other diners who also felt the same and told us that they to had a similar evening experience,like another reviewer said previously,i wish we had gone next door to the Thai !!!

By boyfriend has recently moved up north and we struggled to find a place for a nice evening out and a change of scenery. We were not disappointed when we visited here. We did the meal deal on a Tuesday, 3 courses for £10 as well as bring your own bottle for a small corkage fee (which doesn't even apply if you sign up to their mailing list!) and it was very tasty! The server was very helpful, picking up on things that we had not noticed adding more value to our meal and the food itself was delicious. I was boring and had the Korma...however it was cooked really well and the sauce was lovely. One of the nicest Korma's I've had in my opinion. The only criticism I have, is the menu... I found it a bit confusing with it not being quite clear what was on the deal and what wasn't. Other than that, very nice place will go back!

Called in by chance to Vindaloo for our tea-time meal. The waiter was very good and with a smile helped us through our choices. The tables and cutlery were clean and polished and the toilets also. Popadoms and chutney, starters and mains with either rice or nan bread were the deal. We ordered onion bhajee and chicken chat for starters, chicken passander and chicken pathia with one rice and one nan to share. Couldn't fault the service, value or indeed the quality and flavour of our experience at Vindaloo - and will definitely be back. this deal in on Mon and Tuesday 5pm-11pm and Sunday Wednesday and Thursday 5pm-7pm.

I've eaten here a few times and the food is always lovely. My only issue is that they do lots of takeaway food so you can be an hour in the place before your main meal turns up. If you are in no rush and the meal is the highlight of your night then that's fine and dandy go here. Bit if time is an issue serve it. But you will not be disappointed by the food.

Despite the restaurant being very busy on arrival, the waiting times were not as long as expected and the service was speedy and efficient. The food was excellent and an added bonus was the fact we could take our own drinks in. As we were chatting we didn't realise that we were the last table to leave at the end of the night. However we were not rushed at all and the staff were happy for us to finish our drinks and take our time. Highly recommended.

Very flavoursome Indian food, well executed with some unusual items on the menu. Not in the most atmospheric of rooms, but a great value curry house. The wine menu is limited to red or white (no choice) but most people bring their own, which the restaurant are very happy with and it keeps the bill down!

Luke warm food, overpriced, and frankly not that good. In my opinion this is a poor Indian restaurant. Rude staff didn't exactly win me over!

We visited with friends on a Friday night. The restaurant was busy but the atmosphere was pleasant and lively.The variety on the menu was superb and we were not disappointed with our food; it was hot, freshly cooked, tasty and spicy.The restaurant was clean and the service was excellent.We will return,

Quick visit after a few beers in Oxton. Food is always good and it’s to have somewhere that has a vindaloo that lives up to its name. Décor is looking a bit tired now. I wouldn’t call the service surly, they just don’t seem interested I think. Thankfully the food is still tasty and the lamb vindaloo spicy.

Avoid this place! This used to be a good place to eat but it's really gone down hill. The service was poor with long waiting times, eg no napkin until we asked for them after the starter (when we realised they were missing!). The food was disappointing, the starter was just a tasteless mess then the tikka masala was very sweet and rather watery. The pilau rice was simply rice without the pilau and was full of "rice balls"! This place is best avoided, there must be somewhere better than this. I won't be going back...

Absolutely love this resturant. Always a great meal. Staff are fantastic and make you feel welcome. We had a party of 11 and they handled the order perfect. And you can bring your own drink.

We have been customers of the Vindaloo for many years now and have always enjoyed the food. However, we ordered takeaway on Saturday 25th July and had to wait 2 hours for it to be delivered. Delivery time was quoted as being 1 hour. We chased the order after 1 1/2 hours to be told that the driver had already left with our food. Half an hour after the phone call, the driver turned up (no apology for being late). Unfortunately the food was cold and not at all enjoyable. I hope this is just a blip as this really did used to be a great Indian.

Went to catch up with friends and it was so noisy you could barely hear the person sat next you you.When the food finally arrived it was extremely disappointing. I ended up with chicken instead of king prawns and one person had been completely overlooked and didn't get anything until we had almost finished eating.If that wasn't enough the bill should havebeen £56 but we were being charged £86, it was apologies all round but I think that was one mistake too many! Would definitely not recommend this restaurant but if you dare to try it don't forget to check your bill!

I have written a very positive review for this restaurant in the past & have eaten here countless times. On Saturday 25th July 2015, 4 of us were booked in & we're looking forward to our meal. On arrival we were greeted by 2 very young members of staff. We we're seated straight away & then left for 20 mins without any attention at all. Eventually I grabbed a waiters attention & ordered popadoms, our order was taken after 1/2 hour & everything in the restaurant appeared very frantic. Our starters arrived after 50 mins, the 'manager' apologised. It was nearly another 45 mins after the starters we're cleared when we received another apology before receiving our mains. We had to ask for the bill 3 times. A shame, as usually a very good restaurant. No complaints about the food, when we eventually got it but the service from the 2 young lads at front of house was appalling. They spent more time arguing with each rather than serving. Hopefully just a gitch.

Ordered a takeaway after a very long drive back from being away on business but on arriving back the curry sauce was very watery and lacking consistency for what was a lentil based sauce. My wife drained about a shot glass size amount of water from the plate. Suffice to say I drove back with a sample as requested and was told this is how it was meant to be. I got my money back and went to a decent curry house.Poor service and attitudes from the staff when I questioned why the majority of my order had sat on the pass for ages without being bagged getting an attitude from the fat guy behind the till adjusting his testicles! Should have know better!

Went yet again last night, service good and the food excellent again, fills up quickly though so I would suggest booking in advance, added bonus is that you can take you own drinks in, which lowers the bill, will return soon.

we visited vindaloo and have been back many times, nothing is too much trouble for the kitchen staff, i dont like really hot curries and the tailor any dish to suit my taste...sometimes i feel a nuisance asking, but they always accomodate with a cheery smiley face...i occasionally ask for things not on the menu...things i have tasted in other restaurants and they give it their best shot and try and make it for me. very friendly easy going staff...a delightful dining experience, and very reasonably priced if you take your own drinks ***** (5 star)

Not good at all, poor service, lack of management, staff very unhappy with customers in there. Food was ok but so i'd give it 40% from 100%. One of the staff was a absolute perv, he was just constantly staring at my wife's sister's breasts and also almost followed her to the toilet, but when i told my wife she got up and went behind him and then into the toilet with her sister. I would say to everyone if your taking a 17 yr old with you just keep an eye them, specially near the toilets as these waiters are 100% pervs and desperate. Bill for 6 of us climbed upto £169.30 was assuming it was including tips...

Not happy at all rang up to order a take out and got the price, but then we turned up and decided to eat in, to be told there would be a small difference in price. The meal was ok but needed more flavour. When getting the bill we was very unhappy to see that it was an extra £7 to sit down for 20 minutes!!

I've been to the Vindaloo before and this visit was just as good, they have all the usual meals but also some interesting twists. They also have some meals which include rice, a naan and a side dish, these are excellent and very good value. Although the Vindaloo is licensed they allow you to take your own drink and supply glasses and ice for free.

The food here is appealing and the hygiene here is bad too. I order a vindaloo curry and some onion bajis and they were appalling. The vindaloo curry and onion bajis tasted like ones from the supermarket which surprisingly there is a sainsburys opposite. The food looked unappetising. It looked like something from the toilet. The hygiene was poor to as I spent to whole night on the toilet after eating the curry. The staff were exceptionally rude as they wouldn't answer us , so I had to call 5 times before they would answer us. When they did arrive who was talking very aggressively.when my daughter asked the waiter where the toilet was , she burst into tears after the waiter shouted in her face. I would not recommend you coming here, you probably better of getting a ready meal in a supermarket.

A well priced restaurant serving Indian and Bangadeshi food with a more imaginative menu than many. Although it does now have a full license they are still happy to let you bring your own alcohol which keeps the price low. Food was tasty and service good. Only criticism is that it is not the most atmospheric room.

Ordered a meal deal for one and it was a madras hot bhuna. Not saying it was bad but the yoghurt dip had more spice. It was watery and flavourless. Won't be ordering again. This used to be a fantastic award winning indian but now it would only win the award for blandest watery curry award.

We ordered our curry for delivery at 19.07. At 20.30 it still hadn’t arrived so we started calling for an eta. The phone was constantly engaged, so we drove to the shop. When I asked for an update on our order I was told that the order would take 170 minutes from the time we ordered despite requesting delivery as soon as possible’. I suggested that I take our order to save them the job only to be told that they hadn’t even started cooking it! It’s the longest most shambolic restaurant I’ve ever come across! Fortunately, the restaurant two doors down saved the day all in 30 minutes!!!
