The best restaurants serving Indian food in Pembrokeshire West Wales

I went to Buddha Buddha for a special evening meal with my parents on our first full day of our holiday in Tenby after we read some very positive online reviews and recommendations. We booked a week in advance before going on holiday. The staff were not very warm or welcoming and didn’t seem to happy and they were not very approachable. The design of the restaurant isn’t the best, so we ended up being seated at a table in a dark, out of the way corner of the restaurant. Also, the decor in the restaurant isn’t very imaginative. Mum and I shared a bottle of Prosecco, and I also had a can of soft drink with my meal. We ordered poppadoms and a chutney tray to start with, and naan bread to go with our curry. The food was very tasty, however. Mum and I ordered a chicken jalfrezi and it came nice and spicy, as we all love spicy food. I also ordered a portion of chips with my curry as I don’t eat much rice, and they were good too. My Dad also enjoyed his food. They provide peppermints after the meal which is refreshing. However, the thing that really bothered us was that whilst we were eating and chatting, the staff kept looking over at our table every two minutes, non-verbally indicating that we should hurry up, or asking us whether we had finished yet. They didn’t actually say anything at all rude, or ask us whether we had finished, but it was just the way they kept looking over at us and that way they were passively chivvying us along, almost as if they wanted us to go in there, eat up, and go ASAP. So they wanted to get us fed and watered and out the door, a bit like fast food. Ironically, I’m visually impaired, so I didn’t pick up on those signals from the staff until they were pointed out to me later. The other thing which was a bit annoying was that right at the end of our meal, when we were paying the bill, the waiter said to us quietly, but slightly abruptly, cash only, please. I feel that they should have told us this at the beginning, because we weren’t to know that they don’t take cards, as this was our very first time here. We were only at Buddha Buddha for an hour, before we felt like it was clearly time to go. Normally, when dining out at an Indian restaurant, we are able to take our time and spend at least two hours there. Top tip: Make sure that you always carry plenty of cash when visiting Buddha Buddha. Especially if you are having a few drinks as well. I would not recommend this place because the staff made us feel quite uneasy and rushed, and despite the fact that we were polite to them and smiled pleasantly at them, the same as we would everywhere else we go whenever we go out, they never cracked a smile our way and their faces were quite stern at all times.

Placed an order to be delivered we ordered two curry’s which were absolutely delicious. Service was speedy as ever came before stated time with a friendly delivery man. Will definitely be ordering again keep it up dial curry great job 👍🏻

Went there for a meal recently,when we had the bill there were 2 discrepancies on the bill ,the menu had the lamb shank down for £14.95 but when we had the bill they were down for £25.05 unbelievable when I questioned it he said we have a different price on a different menu they gave us we need to ask trading standards to go to this place and question their different pricing on the menus I will not be going there again to be ripped off again
