The best restaurants in Watford East of England

We have had a takeaway through most of lockdown to present day and have enjoyed everyone. We normally stick with the same items, chicken curry, special fried rice, ribs or sweet and sour chicken balls or prawn satay. Never been disappointed as we have been at other local Chinese Takeaways. Chicken is always breast not scrag end and rice is fluffy and quite a generous portion. Not sure if they changed chef tonight, but chicken curry sauce was different but much improved 👌

Lal Bagh used to be great - now with new owners I was able to have the worst experience! A simple family evening out with my wife and two young kids. We have been coming to this restaurant for at least 8 years, since we moved to Bushey. I has changed hands, I think post pandemic. There used to be really friendly staff their who cared about their customers and quality of the food. In my opinion this is no longer the case. On this occasion there there were two, maybe three young people running the restaurant. Two were on laptops at the front the the dining area. We ordered drinks and food. To cover the food - mediocre at best. Popadoms were not fresh. This is where it does wrong. My wife had ordered a diet coke. When it came it was flat. No waiting staff coming to our table so she asked the two, on the laptops, about the flat coke. She was rudely told that they had just opened the bottle to it could not be flat. Totally dismissed the matter. We finished our food and got the bill. I went to the front to pay. I explained to the the lady member of staff who had come away from her laptop to take payment that I thought if was awful the way they had treated my wife. The other chap got up from his laptop and stood next to me starring at me, quiet menacingly. I asked why he was doing this and the lady said he was looking after her safety. I asked if I was being rude or threatening. She said I was not. Yet he continued to stare at me as if preparing for a fight. I will of course never go back to a restaurant which I have probably spent many hundreds of pounds over the years. All over a small glass of coke that they could not be bothered to deal with. If the bottle cost £1 they would have had to deal with 30p worth. Amazing. Will not recommend and suggest anyone thinks twice about going here.

Greeted with a smile and food was good price. Chicken was very tasty and Donner kebab was very juicy and fresh Especially with chilly sauce . Reading a few reviews I must say I disagree. People just like to hate and write bad reviews . Definitely would recommend and would say experience it yourself . Would be visiting again with friends again .

Unqualified staff, very bad service. Unwelcoming restaurant, I do not recommend, a very bad experience. There will definitely not be another visit to this restaurant

Ordered a large boneless meal and got a regular with a dip I didn’t ask for and didn’t get the one I did ask for. The food was hot but the chips were mushy and the Pepsi very watery

Very hard eveeytime ordered something from here it's either kissing or wrong order it's been past 5 years now... Tried again today after long 1 year ordered 5 breakfast dishes 2 missing.. Had to walk all the way again from home to rectify.. I will give it a lobg 5 year gap now

Great atmosphere, large food and drinks menu, friendly people ready to play boardgames if you're not in a group, and a large space in both back and front so you don't feel cramped

Polite staff, but really bad food. Rat burger levels

Lucky to have 1 star the place should be closed should have years ago repeated unreasonable mistakes caused by thier attitude and lack of care to thier jobs to provide a serivce they clearly can't deliver besides give you rude bad mannered slow lazy threatening attuides from a dysfunctional setup they prompt to us as a serivce is complete rubbish Disgusting 1hr late messing about with receiving my order as paid in full and in return got no customer care or support in resolving the matter I had called 20times with no response then 2 times with a Disgusting cold rude blunt attitude with no decent honourable human reaction on wanting to keep my costume by resolving the issue with delivery not being apologetic not being reasonable and making thier parking chargers my issue when I've paid my delivery and delivery fee and waited with traumatised stress from the experience from the way I was spoken to in a bad threatening manner Still no delivery still no refund with a 4 year old daughter unwell on top I didn't need this stress to order food and give my costume to receive the wrost evening ever

Avocado sandwich horrible. Rotten avocado, bitter taste - unfortunately I've noticed on my way home as was takeaway order. I do not recommend. Disappointing.

Where we had a group of friends round for dinner and we’re going to place a large order for eight people. Each time we rang we were told to callback . The online service wasn’t working. If you are so busy on a Saturday get someone else to take telephone orders!!

Absolutely disgusting - 0/5 food hygiene rating given by environmental health. The lowest score you can possibly get. If you value your health DO NOT order from this filthy establishment. They should be shut down!!

Absolute waste of money! Food cold, even though delivery was quick. Food missing and very small kebab wrap, even though charged £12. Ordered 2 seperate pots of chilli and received (see attached photo). Was offered discount on next order. There will not be a next time. Don't waste your money!

I found the staff were fantastic , polite , helpful , courteous , food was quick , hot and tasty , this is the friendliest modt helpful mc donalds i have visited , well done everyone of you !! 👍👏👋👋

Ordered a cheese burger. This did take some time to arrive from ordering. The burger was pathetic, cheese slice looked like it had been cut with a laser and was congealed on the burger ( was on life support ), which tasted weird, and I wonder if it was some plant based effort. The chips came in a small wire basket, and would just about fill your palm. The seating is canteen / school hall style and not at all welcoming. There was a guy sweeping the floor who looked utterly uninterested in what he was doing, coupled with a negative atmosphere it was all a bit solemn ! Potential for a truly unique meet up diner / hang out experience is gone.
