The best restaurants serving Indian food in East Midlands

This is now only a takeaway and in my opinion the food was terrible. The platter was dry and cold, we had to reheat. The chicken pakora was hard and the batter eugh! I had chicken korma which I know is bland but it had no flavour at all, comparable to water. The dip with the popadoms had no flavour, not even mint. The only things that were ok was the rice, popadoms and onion bajii which were as just a bit dry. Bland and disappointing we will never go back.

The food is always Great! And the service is just as good! Never had a bad meal from here. I highly recommend a visit or a takeaway.

Eaten in several times and very happy with both service and food. However, £60 on a takeaway last night and it was very, very poor. Bland, luke warm, over oily generally Yuk!

The most disgusting curry we have ever had It was a treat but couldn’t finish it Chicken tikka masala was full of coconut!?! My veg Balti had sprouts in ?!?! Onion bhajis dry Will not be returning

Ordered a meal from Simla and was informed via email it was being prepared only then 40mins later I receive a message informing me order had been cancelled without any explanation! I tried to call restaurant but no answer at all, I have also emailed and still received no explanation. I'm also still awaiting refund! Absolutely appalling and would not order ever again its a shame because this place used to be good but sadly gone downhill!

I've have had some nice food but last night's food was horrible. The chicken tikka masala was like half bottle of ketchup mixed with half bottle of vinegar and poured on the chicken. It was runny and tasted awful. The rice was cold and hardly any mushrooms in it & the chips were like Mcain oven chips also cold and we collected. Was expensive but I didn't mind if it was worth it. We won't be ordering again 😒

So frustrating, we ordered take away at 7pm NYE expecting a delay but over 2hrs later it's not arrived and they haven't answered the phones. They took the money and the customer service has been awful. Be honest, what kind of service is this? Very frustrated.

Possibly a bad night but the two portions of Lamb Tikka which arrived late were hated by both diners as it was rock hard and tough even when cut with difficulty Told when complaining that noone had ever complained before and it was perfect and as it should be. . .. what? Supposed to be inedible?this arrogance really annoyed us.If this was a first ever complaint a refund should have been offered not a denial and rudeness. I will not be trying them again Good reviews are their old reviews Some say it's gone downhill since then.

Tasty food. Excellent service. Tried one of their traditional Bangladeshi Specials and it was delicious. Glad to hear they do home delivery too.

Amazing takeaway, so glad we tried it, so delicious, phone order easy and so friendly and helpful, fast delivery, and lovely and hot on delivery and sooooo tasty. We will be back

Now Spice Cottage, I ate on Friday with a friend and it was truly delicious. My mate ordered phall which isn’t even on the menu, I had a chef’s special that I hadn’t heard of before and after being told it was quite spicy they turned down the temperature to a bit below madras which the waiter suggested to me. Starters were ace too, bread and rice tip top. Also the wine was cheap because you take your own!

Real disappointment. Was looking forward to the takeaway as had seen the other reviews raving about the restaurant. Unfortunately the onion bhaji was burnt and in edible but worst of all the curry was bland and the chicken was dry. Wont be ordering again!

Food was tasty and freshly prepared, nice clean environment staff were very friendly. authentic indian food was great and lassi was very good.

Good clean place with nice quality food
