The best restaurants serving Indian food in Chelmsford East of England

Amazing food, great service, overall experience was exceptional! Will come back again again. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.

The best Indian I’ve ever had. All fresh vegetables, no generic oily red over cooked sauces…beautiful tasting and made and served with care

Kaani Kaana was a breathe of fresh air, for once an Indian takeaway that really stood out for amazing Indian food, better than we'd had anywhere else in the country and could really compete with some of the best in London. Authentic and fresh sauces, great quality meat, light and fluffy rice, soft puffy naan bread and the Lamb shank especially was to die for. Sadly the quality has gone completely downhill in the last few months and having given it three further attempts we won't be ordering her anymore. The last lamb shank went in the bin it was so hot, the lamb in the Jalfrezi was tough as old boots with the curry being just mediocre, the naan bread came out like wood and the rice bearable. The service is still great and the ambience of the shop lovely but the food has moved too far away from what it was. Always the casualty of expansion.

Good service and delicious food

Tried the Dahl and it was very tasty and nice kick too it Looking forward too trying more! Delicious

Hmmmmm again because british people have no idea about cooking they will settle for anything , base gravy same for every dish the waiters are there to fleece you of your money by hovering and constantly asking about drinks , only 1 waiter smiled . A bhuna is a dry dish I ordered a prawn bhuna in a madras heat with extra potatoes,it tasted of nothing and also the fish starter had some sort of tomatoe sauce totally tasteless . And 160 pounds for 3 people not cheap

We have been to Elachi multiple times now. We love the food and the service is great! Biryani, Naga Chicken and railway beef are excellent. Decor is also very pleasant. Highly recommend.

Made our regular visit to Chilli’s and as always excellent service and great food. Kam and his team are very friendly, welcoming and professional. We’ve been very very many times and never had a poor meal or service in fact every visit is amazing. This is our regular go to restaurant locally especially with the very varied choices of dishes. The best Indian restaurant we know. Definitely recommend and will be returning

We visited with scouts as part of the chip shop survey Service was super friendly and food nice and hot. Thank you very much :)

Just had a fabulous meal! The restaurant is beautiful, the service is amazing and the food is incredible!! I had the lamb it fell off the bone and the sauce left a little kick not too over powering just right!

Was a really nice time. The Service was excellent always catering to our needs and eager to make sure we had a nice time. Would go again.

As always a wonderful take away, my brother in law travelled from Canada and requested a meal from The Shahjan and It didn’t disappoint. Marty boy is very happy👍👍😆

My favorite Indian in Chelmsford. Always really good service by the staff. The chicken Korai is favorite dish………………..

Ordered at 9:30 on a sunday. Closing times were 10:30, food never arrived. Phoned up the next day as id already paid. I was ok about it at that point. So we agreed they send the food on the monday evening. Recieved the food 1 and a half hours after the call. Food was awful. The naan wasnt fresh, it crumbled like a doey mess. Then the chicken tikka masala was sour. Like theyd used bad coconut milk or something. The rice tasted weird too. It was all in all the worst experience yet. Felt ill for hours after They seriously need to up their game. I wont be ordering there again and advise anyone against doing so.

Very good food, stylish decor, good service. Would recommend. The kind of curry house you’d take your mum to.
