About Millennium Balti
Millennium Balti is an Indian takeaway at 90 Clay Ln in Coventry, where the open kitchen is visible from the front of the shop, so customers can see where their food is prepared. The menu is built around curries, including chicken tikka masala and chicken madras, with lamb options for those who prefer it. Rice comes as a tray or alongside a curry, and keema naan is on the bread list as well. The shop opens daily, evenings only.

Customer Review Summary
Chicken tikka masala is what reviewers mention most, and nearly all of them are unhappy with it, describing a sauce that tastes like sugar or syrup, a mashed-potato consistency, and as few as four chunks of chicken. Rice comes up close behind, called bland, salt-free and flavourless, and two diners who ordered veg and non-veg biryani say they received plain fried rice with an aloo gravy. Other complaints are specific too: a keema naan that was a regular naan with red sauce spread on top, a chicken madras that was all heat with no flavour, garlic chilli chicken burnt to a crisp with dry chapatis, and lamb curries with about three chunks of meat each. Soggy chips and a leaking bag also appear. Service and delivery draw criticism, including a pickup order not ready well after the stated time, a payment mix-up, and a driver described as rude and huffy. One reviewer reports food poisoning, and another describes rats and mold in the back kitchen and garden. The onion bhaji and rice were called OK by one diner, and the only other kind word is that one order arrived still warm.

“If you had any idea what disgusting mess is in their back kitchen, and the back garden is full of rats and trash.. You would never come near this place ever again!! There is mold and trash EVERYWHERE..I really dont think they EVER clean or even heard of water. Avoid this place if you dont want to get food poisoning!!”

“This is the worst food I’ve ever had. I ordered both veg biryani and non-veg biryani, but what I received was just plain fried rice with no salt. It came with an aloo gravy that didn’t go well with the dish at all. Extremely disappointing experience.”
- Charley Brent

“I got chicken tikka masala rice, and vegetables rice. it was the worst experience ever i have. It looks like they made chicken tikka with sugar syrup. I threw into bit. Vegetables rice are tasteless, no salt at all. Misleading people by calling indian food. Wasted £10.”
- Julian Clark
“Awful curry, garlic chilli chicken and garlic was so burnt it was all I could taste. Every bit was burnt some to a crisp, chapati's were dry as old boots. Onion Bhaji and Rice were OK.”
