Customer Review Summary
Reviewers consistently point to the lamb rogan josh and chicken madras as standouts, with the chicken korma and lamb biryani also praised, alongside sides like sag paneer, peshwari naan, and garlic pilau rice. Generous portions and low prices come up repeatedly, with meals for two or more often landing between fifteen and twenty five pounds, and several mention free poppadoms and chutney thrown in. Staff are described as friendly and courteous, with one longtime customer citing thirty years of consistently good meals. A couple of smaller issues surface: one reviewer's starter was missing but replaced promptly, and another found the lamb a bit tough despite otherwise enjoying the meal. One dissenting reviewer called the food low quality and said they would not return, though this stands apart from the otherwise strong pattern. Reviewers note there is no seating, as it operates strictly as a takeaway and delivery service.

“I've been using hillmarton tandoori for over 30 years, the staff have always been friendly & It's very rare to get a sub standard meal. In general you get extremely good food, in decent portions, for a very reasonable price.👍🏻”

“I think it was low quality food not sure why the reviews are any higher than two stars here. Yes it’s not pricey but there is a reason why Not trying again”
- Callum
“Incredible food as very affordable prices! The older asian gent is always very courteous and friendly :) My order for two people with drinks rounds up to under £15 which is nuts!?! and by far the nicest Korma locally.”
- Sara Silva
“Amazing value for money, come here if you live close by, We paid like £25 for all this food, they have 10% off with cash. The Lamb Biryani was so spicy!! Beware.”

“ITS ONLY TAKEAWAY. But WOW!! I've been having the same thing delivered for more than a year. There's a very good reason.....it's really tasty and incredibly good value. Google doesn't permit multiple reviews by the same person for the same location. I think they're missing a trick. Wouldn't you like to know how the same reviewer thought if there were any changes or consistency? Anyway....what I have is lamb Rogan, medium chicken curry and garlic pilau rice and meat samosa starter. Very good portions. ***WOW WHAT A COMBINATION*** £17 including samosa starter.... delivered to my door, hot and tasty. Enought for 2 hungry people (or 2 evening meals for me). Lamb Rogan Josh - incredibly good. Tender, succulent, rich gravy with fresh tomato. Chicken medium.... just lovely, plump pieces of chicken in a wonderful sauce with just a hint of heat. Real chook not formed mucky duck rubbish. Garlic pilau...slivers of crunchy garlic...mix it with the sauces.....I'd be happy (and full) with just the rice and sauces. (Oh yea.... there's also a yellow mango cold sauce...sort of like a chutney but not chunky or too sweet. I think it's for the samosas but, it's just great to drizzle on the rice) I did have a king prawn biryani once. So, so yummy but, as a pensioner I can't afford to spend more than £25 a fortnight. Kp was about £10 which I think is really good value. Lots of prawns butterflyed with tails. Fresh ingredients, very polite staff and excellent value for money. I keep going back because it's really good. Maybe I shouldn't praise them too much or they'll become too popular and put their prices up or change or sell to someone who doesn't care as much as they do? I gave the atmosphere 5 stars because I didn't want them to have any negatives...even though there's no sitting and eating....it's just a takeaway. Please don't judge it from it's location or what it looks like on the outside.......just taste!!!! I am positive you will agree with me... that it's well worth it. Btw - I don't often give this much praise. Checkout my other reviews.”
