Customer Review Summary
Curry is what reviewers discuss most, and opinions split sharply. One calls it really good and great value, while others describe a lamb vindaloo with a sea of oil on top, hard lamb and no heat, and two curries with stale, hard chicken in an acrid brown sauce. Another says the lamb and chicken curries had a very bad smell. On the positive side, one reviewer singles out the special kebab, and another the hot & spicy chicken parmesan, with hot food, crispy chips and large portions arriving very quickly. One diner found the pizza alright. Garlic bread draws repeated complaints: one says it was completely raw and could be rolled into a ball, and another says it smelled awful and was inedible. Service complaints centre on a wrong order handed to two boys, who left with two garlic breads and two packets of chips, and a rude reply on the phone when the mix-up was raised.

“Been ordering from khans for well over a decade and I was absolutely gutted when I ordered a keema and to my surprise, hair, a massive clump of black/grey hair. As anyone would, I put it straight in the bin. When calling up to inform them, I was told that I should have kept the hairy keema so the chef could check it. Maybe the chef should have checked that he’s wearing a hairnet?! I know exactly what greasy chef it was as I did use to go regularly! One word, Ew. The hygiene has gone downhill along with the food quality. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE UNLESS YOU ENJOY PICKING HAIR OUT OF YOUR TEETH!!”

“Food was disgusting - went straight in the bin. Ordered two curries - stale hard pieces of chicken and meat swimming in an acrid brown sauce. Just awful. No signs of any spicing fresh herbs or anything. Can’t give minus stars otherwise they’d be getting -5!”
