“Once a great takeaway taken over with greed. One moment the banquet meal was 14.50 the next week it's 18.99 ! Good luck with that.”

“Really disappointed with our order. Spent £95 and not one person enjoyed their meal. Have bought many times from curry hut used to be our go Indian takeaway. I’m not sure what has changed but all the curry’s were like paste extremely dry and tasteless. Will not be going here again.”

“I can only blame myself lol. I just need to stop ordering takeaways. Most are shite now anyway. This place is sometimes nice, sometimes horrible. Order at your own risk, like playing russian roulette. This time was horrible, might aswell just chuck £30 in bin....would of been cheaper haha The sauce sometimes is this weird brown slop, no matter what you order. Yakety yak dont come back. Will i ever learn 🤮”

“Placed a large order of food and everything was delicious. Meat tender and flavoursome. Chef came out to greet me on collection and gave us a free rice pudding, which was delightful.”

Customer Review Summary
The chicken dansak is the standout for a customer of nearly eight years, who calls the food flavourful. Close behind are the chicken and mutton biryani, the tandoori king prawn and the special bbq kebab, with one reviewer describing tender, flavoursome meat and another food that arrived piping hot. Staff are called friendly and welcoming, and one diner notes a call to confirm a wrongly chosen tikka order before it was prepared. Consistency is the recurring complaint. One reviewer says the takeaway is sometimes nice and sometimes horrible, with a weird brown sauce whatever is ordered. Another, a former regular, found every curry like paste, extremely dry and tasteless. A third objects that the banquet meal price jumped within a week. Others still describe the chef adding extra gravy and pieces when two people shared one curry portion, and one large collection order ended with the chef handing over a free rice pudding.
