Zing & Zest Indian Restaurant in Tameside

Loved this place and it's a shame we are going to lose it. Shame shame shame

Bought a take out chicken dansak absolutly discusting went straight in the bin , chicken was pink inside not cooked . Curry was full of hard chick peas it was all slopy it was a disgrace.I would never go back. People be carefull...thanks for your reply. Yes it was the right one as it had the pineapple in it and the chicken was pink in the middle. Full of chick pease. Late reveiw because i had to go out the curry was for my wife

Fantastic service and amazing India cuisine

food was yummeh but when me and my girlfriend got home i couldn’t stop farting my bludclart self and some were so smelly my girlfriend has now left me 😔

Why is the chicken tikka so sweet and extremely red?

Great food excellent staff and friendly

Fantastic food and friendly service 👌🏿 😋

Delish food and great prices especially the deals!

Lovely well decorated restaurant in a good location juat 2 mins walk from the tram stop. Excellent food at a competitive price, & super friendly staff. The aloo & chana puri starter is something that sounds so simple but is so incredibly tasty! Give it a try!

Went to try the buffet. Food was OK but I wish someone would of told us that you couldnt help yourself to rice and nan bread. Had to order this separately and wait. Chicken a bit hard. Not much selection to choose from and had to ask/wait for some dishes to be refilled. I think people would benefit from the dishes being labelled so people knew what they were having.

Ordered some food from zing & zest for delivery, usual onion bhajis, poppadoms, etc which were ok but when it came to the main dish including chips thats where it all went a bit wrong, opened the carton of chips & it looked like they had been sat for some time & had remnants of someone else's curry on them, this immediately put me off , called the restaurant to complain & they were rude & dismissive, the main course is still sat here unopened waiting for them to collect & refund , sorry zing & zest you've not done good for us this time or done yourself any favours .

This is the 1st time we tried this and we had a takeaway for delivery on fathers day and we were expecting a bit of a wait, almost 3 hours later we called up and they told us it was out for delivery with just eat. Eventually it arrived luke warm and not impressed, we tried this instead of our usual purple olive but we will not be ordering again.

Boom what a curry and good service

Very nice! My only issue was that the bones in the lamb chops were shattered - so I got sharp bits! Otherwise service, flavour, portions, ambience were all excellent! Inside is smart, clean and modern - well worth a visit (price was reasonable too!)

Great food, service and surroundings

Great services, food is high quality and fresh, i love the spicy hot rods which are my favourite.

Beautiful food with very friendly staff . Have been going here for years and still havnt tasted a better curry 👌

Delicious food, service first class, what more can you say 👍

Sorry guys only 8 dishes most of them cold and empty no salad the only good thing is the rice and nann bread u had to order to cook . Not worth a fiver never mind £14 .

Very quiet but we went in early, food was served quickly and excellent quality. Pity its so far from my home would returnnif in Manchester again

Good little restaurant, food was good and good portions. Service was good, staff were friendly. I only took a star off because it was pretty cold, we’d got in early (about 7) on an icy December day so probably hadn't had chance to warm up. Would recommend and will go back.

Tonight was the first night of ordering from zing and zest, and it was spot on! The food was quality. Can not believe we haven't tried this out already! You have just gained another customer. Thank you 😊

We went for the buffet at £14.95 per person. The choice is very limited (4 starters, 4 mains and a pasta dish) and there were no popadoms (which was really odd and a little disappointing) and only 2 chutneys (mint yoghurt and chilli sauce) but while the choice was limited, the standard was brilliant. The food is super tasty and beautifully cooked. Sides are brought out fresh and they are gorgeous, chips, naan and garlic naan were spot on and not burnt which was great to see since most places I've been to lately, the naan bread is burnt to a crisp but happily not at zing and zest! We will most likely go back but would love to see popadoms added to the buffet.

We have been dining at zing & zest for the past 7 years and can honestly say we enjoy it every time we go. The staff & manager are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about their dishes. They will tweak a dish if possible or advise on which you'd enjoy based on your spice tolerance. We've probably tried most of the menu but here are some of our favourites dishes are, Starters - Lamb namkeen boti, chicken chaat puri & spicy hot rods. Mains - Lamb saagwala, Shashlik exotic karahi and Murgh Akbai. We also enjoy the Sunday buffet, which is a bargain! There's a choice of 4 different Starters and 4 different curries (1 is usually tikka masala for the kids) in the hot plates, then you order fresh rice and breads with the waiter when your ready for your main and he'll bring it over. Gives you chance to try dishes you've never had before, we love it. We have introduced many people to zing & zest over the years who have also fell in love with it. It's always our go to place to take friends & family to dine out, as we know we'll be looked after and well fed. Our kids also love it here, it's our daughter 1st choice everytime. We love supporting our local Indian. As our daughter says "Zing & Zest, is the Best!"

Excellent customer service, the food is fantastic, especially the chicken tikka chana massala. Restaurant service is first rate and the delivery is second to none. I've eaten curries of all kinds in many different parts of the world and I have to say that Zing and Zest are one of the best. Keep it up guys.

Meal at Zing and Zest this evening for boys 18th, can honestly say best food I've had in a while, really fresh, plenty and very tasty. Staff here are so attentive and really look after you, will definitely return.

Delicious food and great service.

Good food but atmosphere not so good

Both take out and eat in were great lovely food great service and good value for money 💰

A restaurant that serves great curries and other Indian cuisines..be it for a single, couple or a family...great to dine in..the staff is well trained and very professional. Would visit again and also recommend to others. Thank you

Lovely place to eat staff brilliant and very helpful 😀

Pre order meal for 7.30 was delivered late at 8.20, 1 lot of chips cold 1 lot hot but barely cooked both currys tastless unless you enjoy rogan josh that tastes like sweet tomatoes. Won't be ordering from here again.

Quite simply the best curry house experience I've had since lockdown. Service, food and prices all excellent. Highly recommended.

Iv been to zing and zest several times and never been disappointed with food or service.

I went here last summer and it was amazing!

Nice place with good choice of menu

Went last night. Service was laid back, polite and friendly. Food was all very good and fresh tasting. Enjoyed the whole experience. Thanks.

Great food and service... going back today!

Ordered food from zing & zest and it was a experience. Really disappointing, Spicy lamb chops only flavoured with crushed chillis and turmeric, Lamb naga hasn’t got any naga taste, Biryani full of greasy, Wasted my money

Excellent food good delivery xx very pleased

Food ordinary would not go again. In fact food was hoorible

Excellent food and competitive prices. We arrived early and all was fresh and really tasty. Got busy at 8pm and needed to move from our table (after 2hours so no complaints). Would recommend. Nice place and good staff

This has to be the worst takeaway I've had this year. The chips were cold, the curry sauce was far too spicy, the meat was fatty and tasteless (like it had just been boiled without seasoning) I can cook way better food myself, for a fraction of the price. Steer clear.

Poor quality food and service. Avoid

The service was excellent we got our starter and mains very quick. The service was very good and they made sure we enjoyed our food and the prices were very cheap much better prices for portion size then the larger fast food chains.

Food ok not much atmosphere in the room very echoing room!

Really nice place very pleasant staff good food good choice

I didn't get what I ordered, I did tell them but the guy seemed to be confused, and didn't seem to get what I was saying, he just smiled, I just eat it, it was fine, i just felt disappointed that I didn't get what I wanted and ordered and we ended up with an extra sauce we didn't eat but was charged for it ??🙄

Very attentive service, good deals during the week. A++

We ordered a large takeaway for our family to celebrate my husband's birthday. The food was fresh and delicious and the whole order was perfect. The staff were helpful and accommodating and even sent us a bottle of wine with our order to help us to celebrate. This is one of the most authentic Indian restaurants we have ever eaten at, as we always go to Rusholme, but thought we would try nearer to home and we are so glad we did. Highly recommended.

It was ok would try again but not Millon which is my favourite

I have been to eat few times the staff are lovely very welcoming food was very tasty very relaxing and chilled atmosphere deffently be eating here again and recommend to family and friends ☺😀.

Not brilliant. Wont be using again

Lovely food and staff were all pleasant and nice atmosphere

This is by far the best Indian Restaurant in Tameside. I've recommended to all my friends and family . Food is superb, you won't t be disappointed.

I have had food from Zing and Zest a few times and it has always been delicious. When we have eaten in, the service is great and when we had had a takeaway the order is always fresh and ready on time. Would definitely recommend!

Great food lovely clean place to eat the staff are brilliant

Lovely staff and nice and clean. Fantastic food.

Great find while on a recent business trip. Lovely modern decor, very friendly staff and fantastic food.

Just enjoy our first takeaway meal , from Zing n Zest tonight. Absolutely amazing , we received the same high quality food and service that we have experienced when dinning in.

Delivery on Saturday night... waiting patiently and well worth it.. Thanks guys 😀

Clean, warm and cosy resteraunt. Food is so tasty excellent service.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere and excellent service

Absolutely amazing. The food is delicious the staff are polite helpful and friendly. I cant praise this restaurant enough. A lovely atmosphere. Very clean and the service is excellent I'd highly recommend zing and zest. The portions are plenty and loads to choose from. Fantastic.

Friendly staff, great food and excellant service

Amazing deluxe delivery meal. Quicker delivery time than estimated. Food hot and really good portion sizes . Food as good quality as eating in their restaurant. Wouldnt go anywhere else . A+ Thank you **

Wouldn't even give them 1 star only because you can't give zero rude staff.. tried to tell us we was under ordering to make us order more when we couldn't manage it eat it all asked them to it in takeaway trays so we could take it home only to get a dirty look and a few brown paper bag put on the table and told to do ourselves despite the fact we was the only people in the restaurant and after paying a £95 bill for 2 adults and 3 children very disappointed will not be returning

Zing and zest is a great place to eat a meal. Good prompt friendly service,good quality food ,a great room temperature to eat at (not too hot) and a good atmosphere. There is also a lot of parking space. One of the things that stood out for me is the friendliness and good nature of the waiters who despite having to communicate through masks still kept it together and all was well. I would eat there again.

Reasonable restraunt nice decor good menu

Excellent service food is delicious staff friendly

The food was not very nice and the service was absolutely disgusting! Rude waiters! There was a vile smell in the ladies toilet like a drainage or stagnant water smell made me sick straight after food. Slow service is an understatement. The waiter knocked over a glass and smashed it all over my daughters high chair no apologies made out it was our fault. I wouldn’t recommend going and certainly won’t be going again myself!

Great service and fantastic food

Worst curry I’ve ever tasted in my life absolutely disgusting no taste to it the meat you could taste were it’s been boiled and just thrown in the sauce well Tryed it once never again

After hearing great reviews about Zing & Zest we finally decided to try it out - food, ambience and staff were excellent, highly recommended 👍

Very nice restaurant. Good vegetarian selection. Good service. Clean & tidy.

A pleasurable experience with attentive staff. Food was lovely, you could actually taste the variety of ingredients within any given dish. A little more expensive than most Indian Restaurants but worth it.

Lovely food just replied on Facebook great service lovely staff

Food wasn't all that waste of 25 quid wont be ordering again 😡😡😡

Food is outstanding, delivery service is fast and accurate, ingredients are true to what they should be with no cheap substitutes. Really tasty and authentic plus nice people. Can be busy for delivery on a weekend so order in good time.

Best Indian restaurant in Tameside bar none. Top notch.

Very delicious food and service is even better. Very happy. Highly recommended ✅

Fantastic starter and main friendly staff would recommend not had a bad meal

Had my birthday meal at the zing and zest Ashton-under-Lyne I’ve nothing but praise the service was great not rushed at our own pace the food was very good there was nothing we could pick on as a negative and reasonable priced thankyou for a special night

Perfect food, perfect staff and an amazing place for a date night meal. Looks like it's weird in the outside but couldn't be anymore welcoming on the inside.

First time going, decided to go on Sunday to try the buffet, which was lovely, good quality food, soft tender meats, like some reviews say not much available, but what was available was top quality, recommend and definitely will be going back, nice friendly staff.

Loved it, some of the nicest lamb curry I've every had

The food was really disappointing as was the bill!

Enjoyed the food and good service but was disappointed that the early bird offers were no longer available. This made for an expensive cost for an average experience.

Great food and service was excellent

Food was very nice,staff very attentive ,will be back

We came n had the buffet, not a great deal of choice 5 starters n 4 currys. The staff are really good but it gets boring when 4 different waiters ask toy if you want another drink. Plus points is that the rice,chips and Naan are cooked to order.

Had Sunday , was ok but I like a hot curry and none were very tasty. Their vindaloo is excellent so will order that next time.

Live this place always good service n good food

Excellent food and service as always and good value for money

Went for the first time today for the Sunday buffet. The food wasn't quite ready when we got there just after 3, but were offered drinks and poppadoms. The food was delicious. Not as much choice as other Indian buffets I've been to, but far fresher and tastier. Will definitely be going back

Great Food My Daughter Wanted to Celebrate Her 8th Birthday here we had a great time

Ate here last night and had a fantastic meal! Staff were excellent, great menu and very good value for money. I have always thought that Amaani on Lee's rd was the best Indian in Ashton but Zing and Zest now surpasses it. Highly recommended.

waiters were very rude not friendly, plus just presumed that our £6 change was a tip without asking never brought change to the table, food was ok

The welcome staff was rude when I went with my family, the moment we walked in we were told to make sure we keep the noise down even though we were not making any noise. We stayed because we were hungry but they made the whole experience so uncomfortable that all the way through we were having to whisper because we did not want to cause a scene in front of the kids. There was a couple sat in the restaurant and they were very loud but no one said anything to them. So if you have any kids with you, ignore this place at all costs as they want people especially black people to seat in total silence. The food was nice but the manager who was at the door was rude.

Food was nice but it seemed very expensive
