The Indian - Cheshire West and Chester

This is usually our favourite restaurant for Indian food. On Friday 8th March it just didn’t hit the usual high standard of food and was just “average”. Can’t explain why except the staff seemed different and maybe the chef was different too? We usually love the home style food here but just a little disappointed this time around…..

Seated quickly but the wait to be served for drinks was a short while. The fork was dirty had to get another. The selection of food on the all you can eat menu was not a lot. There was 4 or 5 different curries, rice, and some veggie options. Poppadoms were included but naan bread wasn’t, which was unusual for an indian. Considering the reviews and how busy the establishment was i did expect a little more variety. That being said the food was nice and apparently the dishes change every week. Would i visit again? Yes i probably would. However i would advise the staff that when a customer presents an issue like a drink taste off when they have had 2 others not to answer back by saying “it came out of the same tap but whatever if your not happy fine” Im not one to complain I normally leave it but i had to say something as the taste was off on this one drink. It makes the experience one to remember in a bad way, just a bit of advice. Ide give this establishment a 3.5/5.0 Due to the lack of verity and also the service. Again would visit again but not for a little while.

Won't be ordering again, madras was tasteless and oily. Not seen slices of chicken tikka before, usually chunky pieces? Dopiaza had too much onion. Rice and naan okay I guess. Ate in recently and quality was better but takeaway was really disappointing!

We used to love this place and at one time, visited every week. We decided to give it a go, after some time away. I’m very sad to say that it was disappointing. Positives Onion Bhaji’s were lovely and side salad nice. Onion rice was lovely Nan bread was good Negatives Diet cokes were flat, we checked the underside of the cans and we were sold Diet Cokes that were out of date, sold at the full price unforgivable!! That shouldn’t be allowed see photo. Chicken Tikka Balti not great. It was like a curry my Mum used to make in the 80’s! It didn’t have complexity of flavour and was just one heavy gravy. This isn’t how this place used to make this dish. Chicken was also tough and stringy ! Chicken tikka dhansak as above. Chicken was tough and the curry lacked flavour. Back to the Bombay Quay for us, I think! Chicke

Ordered a take away tonight 21/4/23, after you were recommended by the people of Northwich. We ordered starter of poppadoms with a selection of chutneys. Food arrived at 9pm all fine but no poppadoms, so annoyed. We now have chutneys which are a waste of money. Our last take away arrived pizza but without the chips. What is wrong with Northwich takeaways!!!
