The best restaurants serving Indian food in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

We ordered two each papadams(sp?), two onion bajiis(sp?) and we each order chicken tikka masala. After eating the papadams we were served to our surprise, three each onion bajiis instead of the one each that we expected. After eating those which were too filling I was no longer really that hungry, but then the chicken tikkas were served. My chicken was so over cooked it was like cutting rubber but the sauce was tasty. I also have to say that the sauces served with the papadams were some of the best I have ever had in an Indian restaurant although the owner and servers were from Bangladesh. So, some good and some bad, consequently the average rating

Well we saw the good reviews for this Indian and thought as we are on holiday we would give it a try. Oh my what a huge disappointment this turned out to be. The food I had was literally bland (Chicken Chat starter and a Tandoori Platter main) with the only taste coming through of salt. The salt was not massive but the only taste that was present. Now I have many curries around the UK and abroad and this was the worst one I have ever had. I fully understand the various regional differences with Indian cooking but this was just poor execution of this dishes. My wife had a Chicken Tikka Masala which she said was ok but nothing great. The rice and naan were fine. My advice is if you want a good curry this isn’t the place for you.

Amazing food, it was so tasty, fresh and the best Indian I’ve had in years. Delivered hot to the my door, and delivery wasn’t long at all. Would Highly recommend to anyone in the area

Visiting the area so saw this restaurant and checked out their reviews first. Excellent food, onion bhajee’s were one of the best we have had, had a completely new dish Honey Chicken Masalla which was delicious. Portions really good size and great value. Would definitely recommend!!!

Thank you guys, great vindaloo even if not on menu. Great food, proper Vindaloo, Great communication. BEST IN TOWN I'll send Marj in again. Soon!

There are two Indian restaurants in Perranporth but the Massala is the outright winner. The food is first class and the service matches the food. We come to Perranporth at least once every year and this restaurant is 100% consistent with its service and quality. We cannot recommend it highly enough, well done Massala team. Thank you 🙏

We had a really lovely evening here for my husband's birthday at the end of February. The restaurant staff had been amazing at fitting us in, even when I asked if we could add a second family to our booking (essentially doubling the numbers!). We were 4 adults and 6 children (two 9yos, and two sets of twins, aged 5 and 6). The food was amazing. Service kind and friendly. When we arrived, we were shown to the table and there was a table of adults in the same area. They took one look at us and asked to move, before we'd even got our coats off. Our children sat and chatted together, did colouring-ins and puzzle books. We always bring these things with us to restaurants, but the other diners didn't wait a moment to find that out! At the end of the evening, one of the staff (I think possibly the manager or owner) told me how well-behaved he thought our children were. Thank you for that kindness. I was feeling somewhat taken aback that the other table asked to move before we'd even sat down, and that made such a difference. Thank you. 🙏🏻

After walking 10 miles and exploring the Eden project experience it was time to think about fuel, we decided to go to lostwithiel a small stannery town, in search of a nice place to get dinner, we fell upon the Globe Inn, had such an awful experience there that we left and went directly to the Tandoori after reading great reviews, it was a real pleasure to experience, lovely hospitality, delicious food, great ambience, we will definitely visit again after a long hike, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone, please go and have a wonderful experience as we did. Thank you to all the staff n owner who made a special happy experience.

Had a great experience here ! The food was delicious, full of flavour, and everything tasted so fresh. The service was excellent, really friendly and attentive staff. Definitely one of the best curry places around. Will be coming back for sure!

Chicken shashlik arrived at the table no sizzling smoking dish, barely hot, pretty sure it was reheated. No sign it had been in a tandoori oven in the previous 15 minutes. Very poor.

An absolutely fantastic Indian restaurant that made us very happy for my daughter’s birthday. We had various starters - delicious onion bhajis and samosas - followed by saffron chicken biryani, a balti and a tikka masala. Lovely fresh fluffy Nan bread. We will be back.

Hands down the BEST indian restaurant in the country. The staff are always so friendly and the food is incredible!

Excellent food, Dev was really nice! I really enjoyed the chicken tikka masala and the garlic nan bread, definitely recommend it.

We sat with our coats on it was so cold inside. We had a 15 minute wait before staff realised we were there 2 couples in the restaurant. We had popadoms with only a 3 tray pickle which was poor. We had a mediocre main meal. The Naan garlic and coriander great. Rice was ok. We won’t be back.

I have ordered online delivery. Foods delivered ontime. Food was excellent. We enjoyed the Foods. I do highly recommend.
