The best restaurants serving Indian food in Colchester East of England

Pinky’s food is beautifully wholesome created with so much love and time. I wish I could eat it every week. Fragrant and tasty ….. simply divine!

Amazing food, very tasteful, staff members were very helpful and friendly, good presentation in the restaurant and also the food.

Based on the recommendation of my nephew who lives in town, I tried this place. Without doubt, it is the best curry I have had in a long time. My partner is not really a fan of Indian food, and although I have dragged her to Indian restaurants in Bratislava, Kraków, Paris, Valletta, London and even Casablanca, she has never enthused about her meal. Bees converted her! For the first time she fully ENJOYED a curry. I don't live in England, but will be back to Bees - absolute quality!

⭐ 1 Star Extremely disappointed with my recent experience at Maharani. I placed a takeaway order (as I regularly do) and waited over an hour and a half before calling to check on it. I was told they attempted delivery but got no answer—this is completely untrue, as I was sitting in the living room by the door the entire time with the TV off. No one came. They then tried to claim I had entered the wrong phone number, which I know was correct. When I called to clarify, the woman on the phone was incredibly rude, hostile, and hung up on me. After calling back, I was promised a refund, but it was never issued. I’ve now had to dispute the payment through my bank. Avoid this place unless you want to risk being scammed. Terrible customer service and zero accountability.

It was out first visit to the island and we went out for a walk. We popped in on the off chance as we love a curry. They sat us thankfully next to the radiator as it was so cold outside. The service and food was deliciously fantastic. We like things a certain way, saag aloo vindaloo hot for example, they were very accommodating. Locals very friendly, we chatted to a lovely couple. We would definitely recommend and we will visit when we come back to the island again.

The food was delicious and the service was friendly and efficient. Lovely vibes and a great spot for a group lunch! I would definitely recommend!

We ordered take out from here. Arrived a few minutes after told to and we were made to wait for another 25 minutes. The food was good. But we were charged twice for an item and now can’t get through to them on the phone to resolve.

Al llegar nos llevaron a una mesa con no cubiertos. Un miembro del personal, literalmente tiró 8 cuchillos y tenedores en la mesa para establecer allí. No hay servilletas o cualquier otra cosa. Nos quedamos muy impresionados por el comportamiento grosero. Nos levantamos para ir al buffet y me dijeron a sentarse y que íbamos a ser traído entrante. Un poco de comunicación hubiera estado bien! El primer plato era dos cubos de pollo cebolla un duro correosos bhaji samosa y un pequeño. No me gusta la cebolla bhajis o samosas, así que cuando voy a un buffet es porque me gusta elegir lo que quiere comer. El buffet no era mejor. Fue limitada y la carne era duro y difícil. No volveremos muy pronto. No podía salir de allí lo suficientemente rápido.

This is my favourite Indian restaurant in London. Within walking distance from South Ealing and Ealing Broadway stations. It is very unpretentious and unassuming. The food is delicious and half the price of what you usually pay in London. I last went there with my mum. We shared two mains (tandoori king prawns and tandoori chicken massala), one starter (samosas), coconut rice and peswari naan. The food was just about right for two people and we paid less than £20 each.

Food very good and tasty. Always enjoy it.

Good food, great value, solid menu and cracking service. Always busy!

Lovely food, good amount. Good to find a nice Indian restaurant.

Had meal with the mrs and it was lovely and no service charge well worth the money will defo go back

Just had a lovely takeaway from here really delicious

We ordered collection food, tried so many Indian places and wanted to try this one as my Indian friend used to order biryani from there. Masala and bhuna were both too spicy(might be our fault as I agreed to masala being medium spice but never had spicy masala before) it didn’t taste like traditional ch.t. Masala at all, rice was tasty, Bhuna was little better but had some chicken that was not lean and my husband spat it out, he then also found some onion skin in there. The naan bread was small and probably the worst we had in colchester
