The best restaurants serving Indian food in South East

We had a takeaway from here whilst staying at an AirBnB nearby. The food was absolutely fantastic, it was super tasty and not at all greasy. Portion sizes for a takeaway were also very substantial which was nice and naan breads were top notch. We collected from the restaurant itself and paid in cash, which gets you a very noticeable discount so well worth doing. Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in the area.

Amazing food. Really subtle flavours and beautifully cooked. Staff incredibly welcoming and friendly. Would highly recommend.

Very friendly staff, good food and reasonable price

Really tasty food recommend highly. Driver very friendly

As a family we have been getting food from spice cottage for the last 3 years every Sunday and never once have we been disappointed. Food is excellent and staff are friendly. No complaints at all, I highly recommend trying it.

Lovely staff, tasty food. Chicken saag very good.

On arrival everything was great, once ordered we waited around 45 minutes for our food to come out (there was only 2 of us) which is insane. We then had to send one meal back as we made a mistake and ordered the chicken tikka main not as a curry. After that the waiter was just straight up rude and made us feel very uncomfortable about it. He approached our table twice in a abrupt manor telling us to go and tell the boss that it was our mistake if not he's going to get sacked in his words, shaking his head at us and just really looked furious with us, mistakes happen and it was also an easy fix! We really didn't want to be there after that as we could tell he was treating us different to the rest. Food was nice but wouldn't visit again as the waiter put us off, wait time for food to come out.. oh AND £6 for a lemonade?! Crazy

One of the worst Indian takeaways we have had. We ordered on a Sunday so maybe a different staff than usual.. the one dish that was good was the Railway Thava. But the onion bhajis and samosas were cold and dry, the chicken tikka masala was chicken in a grainy coconut sauce (with orange food colouring?), the veg tikka masala was just a mass of assorted veg (and masses of sweetcorn!!??) with very little sauce and the mint sauce was watery, white liquid. Awful.

Delicious hot food and some sauces and chips were in the bag as free extras. Large portions as well. We ordered 2 curries and 2 rice, but could have done 1 of each between us. Garlic naan was delicious and the mint sauce is devine.

Excellent food delivered on time

I honestly can't rave about this restaurant enough! Yesterday, this place opened up just for my family! The service, food and making us feel so special was amazing! Generous portions of all what we ordered. The waiter who took care of us made our lunch very special. Probably the best Biriyani I've had too! Onion bhajis were delicious. All enjoyed it very much! Highly recommend. Thanks to the lovely guy who made it happen. We will be back!!!

It was 40 mins maximum delivery time when I ordered. Actual delivery time took over 2 hours. I contacted the restaurant, who apologised. When eventually it turned up, the food was cold and the portions were small compared to other restaurants.

Brilliant evening. Waiters so friendly and attentive. And generous !!! Thankyou

After suffering the disappointment of the take aways in Chichester I decided to go here again, it had been a while since my last delivery from Habib but I seemed to remember it was good so thought I'd collect this time. Like I said the other establishments I will try with a classic dish to gauge them before ordering specialty dishes in the future , my usual is a dupiaza, the others I've tried have just tasted the same, I understand how the indian takeaway cooking is done to produce quick turnover but this double onion had a really nice tomato taste with a balance of spice and not like the base gravy filled ones from others. Will definitely be using this place from now on

Amazing place, amazing food and child friendly hope to return with my kids soon. The manager is an incredibly friendly and helpful man its always a pleasure to see him.
