The best restaurants serving Indian food in South East

My partner and I visited on Saturday 19th April for the first time, and will 100% be returning! The service was great, and the food was incredible. I went for the ‘Ped Op Num Phung’ which was a roasted duck dish, and was extremely impressed. I would definitely be returning just for this! My partner went for the ‘Old Delhi Butter Murgh’ and was also extremely impressed. We shared a coconut rice, and each had a naan. I went for the peshwari which was a tad different to usual as it had mango in it, but this was a game changer, delicious! My partner had a keema naan which he also thoroughly enjoyed. The portion sizes were very good, so we definitely did not walk away hungry. The service was fantastic. The staff were all extremely friendly, polite and helpful when deciding what to order. Would definitely recommend!

Restaurante muy agradable con comida muy sabrosa. El personal era servicial y amable y ofrecen opciones veganas / vegetarianas también, que es una ventaja. También disfrutaron de la música que estaban tocando. En general una buena experiencia y volvería de nuevo.

We live locally and were staying near Lyndhurst for the weekend as we were going to an event. We decided to get a takeaway on the way through in Lyndhurst. We ordered it online on the way there and went in to collect it and took it onto our accommodation which was 10 minutes away. I don't like to complain but this was the worst food looking Indian food I have ever had and tasted. We had a chicken korma and a chicken passanda. It was watery, and tasteless and the chicken was definitely not fresh. It was discoloured, brown, crusty and chewy. The sauce was tasteless liquid. We also had a peshwari naan bread that had very little coconut in it and tasteless and part of it was still doughy. The pilau rice was also tasteless. None of the food had any taste at all and it was so disappointing. The food was inedible and I hadn't eaten that day either! My husband just ate his because he was so hungry. He's not one to complain as he will eat anything but he said it was awful. We don't get away very much and could have chosen to eat anywhere in Lyndhurst. We wish we had got a pizza from the forage. The only positive thing was the poppadoms... That was tasty and fresh and ironically it was free as we didn't order it! I did email the restaurant the next day asking for them to get back to me and requesting a refund but so far have had no response. I can't believe anyone can give this place a good rating and how it has 4.5 stars out of 5. I want my money back as we spent £25 on inedible food. I was worried my husband was going to be really unwell the next day from the chicken. Do not recommend at all. Please get in touch with me to resolve this. Then I can at least put in a good review about your customer service and you show you do care about what the customers are saying, and make changes.

Love the food and the service is very good. Recommend

Nice meal but the red sauce was missing needed for the poppadoms?

Great food and great service best Indian on the island by far for delivery and eating in

A fabulous meal, service by Sid was warm, effficient and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. All food freshly cooked, tasty and very enjoyable. Definitely worth a visit. We will be back if ever in the area. Thank you.

Absolute delight. A quiet Tuesday night and our waiter was on point. Recommend the chicken balti - juicy, fruity and very tasty.

This restaurant used to be our go to for takeways, really wasn't too bad. However, the last few times we have ordered from Tandoori Night the food was really unpleasant. We used to really like the vegetable dhansak but they have changed to recipe to a dish of fried vegetables with no discernible sauce, very greasy and unpalatable. I don't know whether the premises has changed hands, but certainly won't be ordering again any time soon.

This was the first time we’d dined at Mehdi. After a warm welcome, the service was equally attentive throughout. The food was also very good. The highlight for me was a Paneer Jalfrezi main course - which wasn’t on the menu - but which the chef was happy to prepare for me anyway. The restaurant had a really good atmosphere for a cold November evening. In summary, an excellent experience and good value for money.

They saw an hygienic I don’t know why they haven’t even shut down not yet. Health and safety should shut them down. Big flies everywhere and the garden looks like a rubbish tip and they keep all the food in the shed in the garden

My wife and I stopped at the Holiday Inn next door, and visited the restaurant for dinner. The staff and the manager were very attentive and very friendly. I had a long chat with the manager about how pleased we were. the food was good. Can not complain.
