Waterhead Tandoori in Oldham

Everything food is nice there😊

Always absolutely delicious food! Been going here for years and the quality has never once faulted!

Food is tasty, staff are friendly, but if it's busy and you order ahead, they can get your order wrong, happened a few times. Apart from that, this place is a winner

Very nice fresh food where you can see them cooking it in the kitchen. Fresh and tasty.

We have been going to waterhead Tandoori for quite a few years now, and after promising we will leave a review, it's not before time. If you want excellent well prepared and cooked food, this is the place. The food is always excellent, the service is prompt, the premises are so clean you could literally eat your meal off the floor, and Al, is the nicest most polite guy you could ever hope to meet. He's always pleasant, upbeat, and is genuinely interested in how your day has been. The chefs are on full view hard at work, and everything seems to run like clockwork. Myself and Christine, cannot recommend this place enough. Thanks again to Al and his team of excellent chefs, we will continue to buy our curries from this clean, pleasant, well run establishment. Keep up the good work guys.

Nice staff, food good but slightly pricier than other takeaways in the area.

Second time ordering here and the food was top notch. We had the set meal for 2 which was more than enough for 2 adults and a 9 year old. Wonderfully tasty, not oily at all, just really good food and really great value for 3 of us. Our favourite Tandoori place.

Ordered a chicken nan , which was processed chicken cubes no taste whatsoever, watery ! Also it was just full of onions , rogan Josh different chicken? Tender! A lot of money for what used to be a top curry place

I have been using Waterhead Tandoori for years. Absolutely the best Indian cuisine about. They cater for individual taste and whatever you choose the quality of the food never disappoints. The staff are friendly and welcoming. We travel 40 round trip, that says it all!

Absolutely amazing kebab, the sauces are also amazing, the prawn Puri is one of the best I’ve tasted, can’t fault this place honestly

Food is spot on and staff are really friendly. Good prices for good food

Had high expectations for this place after ordering a donner and chips after a long day at work. Was greeted warm and friendly smile told the guy I want donner and chips he goes do you want brown donner it doesn't really taste nice immediately heads racing with doubt I ordered it big thic chunks of meat discusting will not go here again had to bin the whole thing besides that had a red mark on my donner don't know what it is but doesn't look appealing please feed the people of oldham with food you would eat your self

I ordered a takeaway after reading the reviews. What a disappointment! The food was completely tasteless and very expensive for what I ordered. I would not recommend this restaurant. Having said that, the service was good, just the food that let it down, and that's what I went for!

Ordered a vegetarian paneer curry last night, upon bringing it home I found it was chicken. The things from my order that I could eat were very nice, just like the food I’ve had from here previously, however far more attention needs to be paid to dietary preferences.

Fabulous takeaway as always, from ordering to collecting was 20 minutes and all the food was hot and delicious. Best curry in oldham!!

Great food and even helped me take it to the car because we'd been greedy and ordered so much

Great food and excellent service....would definitely recommend!

This is now my go to curry take out place, good food, cheerful staff who are courteous

Amazing food! We go here regularly and have never had a bad meal. The staff are lovely and always so kind and quick with the food. Such great quality

Best in the area. Probably the best in town

I don't understand what they are trying to sell. Never seen a restaurant selling starters with added colour. First time I had grill. Chicken tikka was undercooked was ages ago. Gave a second chance today. So I had seekh kebab. It tasted like curry rather than a grilled kebab and it was red. Not sure what kind of side sauce they give you. It's neither a yoghurt, chillie or a mango sauce. Just weird looking and tasting sauce. Not sure about curries. Never had them. But review is about starters

Amazing meal every time from here. Have been ordering takeaways since opening and never been disappointed.

Fabulous meal as always. Set meal is great value. Ordered several other main meals and sundries for the family, which were just as amazing.

Love this place. We consider it a favourite. When after I moved it is still worth travelling to get food here

Called in at Waterhead tandoori for a large order for the chaps on my nightshift, every curry was delicious and the latest edition to the menu the tandoori nights kebab was one of the best kebabs I’ve had, 4 of us at work shared 2 of these and still didn’t finish them, highly recommended 👌🌶

Been coming here for the past 4 years always spot on. Great service always happy to help. Food is out of this world.

Food is unreal!! Best curry’s you will eat! Turns up red hot all the time!! Quality local take away! Top lads!

Fantastic place , drive a few miles to get food from here 👍

Mindblowing, my go to place for clean, scrumptious food, i definitly reccommend 👌🧡

Absolutely beautiful kebab & lovely service. Can’t beat the red donner!! Best kebab in Oldham for sure. Only been getting this for a few weeks & it’s an absolute game changer

Best in oldham, the donner meat thick and juicy. I cant stop having it. The lads inside are well presented and great service. Real people and a great experience 👌🏻 11/10

Always order the waterhead special always amazing

Great friendly staff..Food was excellent..Best curry / take away had in ages..

Visited now on 2 occasions and did not disappoint 1st visit last week, Special Mix Kebab, just amazing taste and flavours. 2nd visit Friday evening, Chicken Tikka and Donner Kebab, Sylheti Bakor Bhuna, Pilau Rice and Chappati, all so tasty and flavoursome can't fault any of it. One of, if not the best I've tasted for a long time.The place is Spotlessly Clean and the staff are Wonderful. Gotta go and give it a try folks we'll worth a shout

Best curry! Very tasty! All the family enjoy the curry from here, staff are so welcoming and friendly. 100% recommend

Rubbish the kebab tastes like Iceland kebab plastic and rubbery. Chips over done and crispy and really greacy. Not ordering from here again.

Travel 400 miles from Scotland to visit family. Love their Kebabs, I also take some back to Scotland they’re amazing

After years of traditional christmas dinner this year, we had a change and had meals from waterhead tandori .Mo Al and his team did not disappoint 5 different curries cooked to perfection and everyone was very happy probably be a new family tradition now at Christmas 👍

The best food around, very friendly staff, highly recommended

We’ve had two take aways from here recently, both ordered via Deliveroo. The curries (Tikka Masala and Biriyani) were very nice and both times delivered within half an hour. I would recommend the tikka paneer starter.

Excellent service, this place is a most at least twice a week. Great taste in your mouth and the boys working really hard. AL with his friendly smile also the team. Never a disappointment. 👌🏻 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Waterhead Tandoori is our go to take away for great traditional Indian food. We’ve been customers there for years and the quality of food and service is always a consistently high standard. Ali and his team are friendly and knowledgeable and go out of their way to provide a first rate experience.

Love this place and Al and the chefs are brilliant and so friendly. Had a wonderful meal tonight, as we always do. The meat and vegetarian selections are excellent and we wouldn't go anywhere else.

Excellent service excellent food highly recommended

Absolutely fantastic, the food was beautifully cooked and the lamb melted in the mouth. One of the best things about the waterhead tandoori though was the exceptional service and attentiveness of Al who served me and if you collect in person you can see how clean the kitchen is . 💯 %

Lovely food, try the special mixed kebab! Lovely people and always feel welcome!

Absolutely delicious food when the biryani touched my tongue so many flavours appeared like an explosion in my mouth. Must go recommend by the whole of oldham.

Fantastic food always , great staff , they can't do enough for you do recommend

I ordered from here and the food was that off that it smelled I ordered a mix shashlick kebab it was over £10 and soon as I opened it the meat smelt off!!! very bad experience first time I ordered never doing that again I didn’t even eat the shashlick very very bad!!! They need reporting to food and hygiene standards!!! Absolute disgusting shame on u!!! Times are so hard as it is and u order food spend money so u can eat nice and instead u get rotten food if I ate that I would have defo got food poisoning!!!

Fantastic takeaway! I’m not exaggerating when I say that the afghani is the best curry I’ve ever had anywhere. I live in the north east but whenever I am back in Oldham visiting friends or family the first place I go to for food is waterhead tandoori. Compliments to the chef and the manager for running such a great restaurant.

Great Tandoori...weekly treat...thumbs up 👍👍

Normally I would recommend this place highly for the delicious curries and authentic dishes and also the special mix kebab I was upset to find the chicken tikka kebab I had tonight only had a few pieces of chicken on a naan hardly a kebab very disappointed unfortunately

First take away since this madness began. Busy day moving son so phoned on way home to order. Ready a bit later than they said, picked up no problem. Really hot food, beautiful , tasty dishes, catered for son's dietry requirements, all thoroughly enjoyed our food. Thank you Waterhead Tandoori

First class food everytime you'll have to go a long way to find better . Love it.

Excellent food and service, staff friendly Mo a star

Good food but a little expensive.

By far the best kebabs in Oldham , great service and a great choice of currys and kebabs, had the madras a few week ago and it was really authentic , good value all round

Not been here before for a takeaway but obviously read the reviews. Very glad I did.Lamb chops, king prawn puri, popadoms. Really tasty. The king prawn puri...full of king prawns. I mean FULL!!! A selection of mains; chicken tikka, biryanis, mixed tikka tandoori. The mixed tandoori was epic, huge! The meat was fantastic. I was really really impressed and will definitely be coming back.

Best curry in Oldham. Clean and can see your food being cooked.

I haven’t tried curry here but I spoke to guy he was very honest, the donner kebab, is in my opinion one of the best in Oldham, freshly cooked and delicious. Well worth a visit

My family have recently started coming to this Tandoori and everyone in my family loves it! Service is quick, food lovely and staff are very nice when you come in to collect. I am quite a fussy eater and vegetarian but they were more than happy to put some tikka sauce in a container for me as I really like the sauce. Would definitely recommend!

We have literally never had a bad meal from this takeaway. The staff are always friendly especially Mo. Price is good and waiting time usually around 20 - 30 mins.

Lived near here for 3 yrs and finally tried it. Really surprised at the quality and taste. Excellent depth of flavour, tased fresh and well made, not covered in oil like most if them. Definitely be going again.

Always as good as the last visit, which is always good.

Surprisingly good food for a takeaway. Will use again

Waterhead Tandori is the best indian takeaway in oldham bar non the chefs are top quality and all the food is cooked from scratch right infront of your eyes. Mo runs a tight ship and keeps standards high 5 star food try it !
