The best restaurants serving Indian food in South East

Have ordered from here a few times now for takeaway, there is always a problem with the order, there has been something missing or wrong every time, and all you get when you ring is oh next time next time, the chef was even arguing with me telling me I never ordered a certain dish, shame cause the food is nice, there just incapable of getting an order right, I would never order a takeaway from here again.

Really enjoyed the food, service was quick, everyone was really nice!

We had a takeaway tonite 02/01/2025 and was not good at all a month ago we had a great one but last 2 times not been great. I dunno if chef changed but I don’t think I will be coming back in a rush which is a shame as used to be our favourite in Tunbridge wells

Without doubt one of the best Indian Restaurants in Southsea

We had a takeaway that we collected for work. Simply the nicest chicken Dhansak I have ever eaten, beautifully rich in flavour with plenty of large chunks of succulent chicken, fresh and piping hot, the staff are so polite and friendly, I would highly recommend to anyone

Very attentive service and really yummy food

We’ve been using this restaurant for a number of years now and always been impressed with the excellent food served and good service!. However, our last 3 visits, the most recently being Friday evening 14/3 I am afraid to say it has disappointly slipped. The food remains its normal excellent level but the table service is in urgent need of some extra training. On all three occasions we’ve been shown to our table, drinks and poppadom ordered and served primptly, but then forgotten about. On this last visit it was even more noticeable, as the restaurant wasn’t busy having just opened when we entered. Whilst sitting eating our popudoms the three surrounding tables had now become occupied and served with drinks and their popudoms as we were finishing ours. We sat patiently waiting for the waiter to attend our table to we could place our main order. Unfortunately this didn’t happen as they were now at the recently occupied tables taking their main orders. We patiently waited again, by which time the other three tables were now being served their mains. It resulted in the end me having to call the waiter over and there we sat waiting again. By the time we received our main meal two of the three occupied tables were now vacating their tables and leaving. If this had just happed for the first time I would not be writing this negative review, as I'm a firm believer in that everyone makes mistakes, but we’ve experienced this the last three visits now, twice with visiting friends, having told them how good the restaurant was before the visit! On both of those occasions leaving with egg on our faces apologising for the staffs short falls because waiting for over hour for our mains was unacceptable. We came back on Friday to give them one more last chance and I’m afraid to say they’ve fallen at the first hurdle. I did bring this matter to the attention of the manager at the time who did come to the table to apologise and offer a complimentary drink which we politely declined as we had, had sufficient by then. Before leaving the waited cleared the table of cutlery and crockery asking if I'd like the remainder if my left meal home, a offer which I kindly accepted. He came back and literally dumped 2 boxes with lids and a plastic carrier in the table and left. As I had no cutlery to scrap the contents into the boxes I had to rely on just pouring the contents in hoping half of it didn't end up on the table top. No warm flannel for finger wiping was offered only a few chocolates in a plate. Couldn't get out quick enough and won't be returning if this is what their service has dropped too! I will be taking out business elsewhere from now on. Very, very disappointed

Used to order here all the time and enjoyed it but quality has gone down hill. Curry lacks any flavour, bland and watered down. Really disappointing as it’s not cheap.

Really warm and welcoming restaurant, I have used Mardi Spice for over 16 years and can honestly say, their food is fantastic, cooked to your liking. Highly recommend them.

Excellent food as always.Never had a bad meal. I recommend the Darzeeling from the Regency Exclusive section.Superb. Michael and Maria.

We ordered 2 currys arived quick hot and tasted realy nice. New go to curry house

Definitely our family favourite Indian restaurant. Been coming here for years and the food is always good.

All staff are welcoming, friendly, and professional. Food is always tasty. The music transports me to Nepal every time I visit. Very interesting and attractive decor. Toilets are always clean. The lounge is spacious and very relaxed.

So far, excellent! Gonna order tonight, I live alone so it lasts me for two days. Always very hot and very tasty. Been doing well financially and I always order from her! Keep up the good work !

The curry was watery , no taste to it . I am so disappointed with it
