  “Ive always ordered from here always been great, but the other week i ended up really ill due to raw chicken. I messaged them and they didnt even replay back to me which i find shocking considering i was a regular there, would never order from here again.”

  “Just been for my wife's birthday. We had the Sunday special. Normally you get smaller portions. But oh no we didn't. The food was very tasty. Not one of us was disappointed. The service was top notch and very friendly. Every where was clean and tidy. Needless to say we will be back. Amazing”

  “I've tried several "Indian" takeaways in the area and I've been disappointed in most. This was not an exception to the trend. Firstly, I ordered a chicken tikka starter with sauce and salad separate, with a garlic naan from a staff member. I explained what I wanted and he repeated what I said. I ordered a pint whilst I waited. Just as I thought he was going to the kitchen, the manager/owner (M/O) came in. The staff member explained what I'd ordered to the M/O who then took payment, I can't remember the exact figure but it was over £17. I sat down with my drink and checked the menu, anyway after questioning the price, they had charged me for a tikka main instead of starter, easy enough mistake and was rectified with a bottle of lager to take home. I sat down again and took a sip of my drink, only to be presented with ny order. They saw me drinking, they knew that I'd been delayed trying to sort the bill out, why didn't they tell the chef to hang on a bit. Anyway, I left, leaving nearly half a pint. When i got home and opened the parcel, the yogurt had leaked in the bag. On unveiling the rolled up naan (which was ok), I was confronted by what I can only describe as uranium enriched chicken, either it was marinated in food colouring, or it had spent 3 days on a sunbed prior to its appointment to meet its maker. Anyway the search for a decent "Indian" continues”

  “My mother in law and myself went in last night Thursday the 9th of April …we ordered a takeaway..the staff were pleasant enough …I ordered a few dishes for our family of 4 ….one of the items was a chicken jalfrezi…I asked for plain chicken NOT tikka …when we got home it was tikka and not plain chicken …after specifically asking ….i also ordered chicken madras times 2 …..I can honestly say that after eating from Indian restaurants for more than 40 years it was the worse food I’ve ever had …the chicken was rock hard and rubbery ..my hubby tried to cut into a piece of chicken and actually couldn’t!! …we found chicken skin fat on a few pieces…the jalfrezi sauce was packed with undercooked peppers ( crunchy ) ….it was truly disgusting…this was our first time ordering and it will be our last …my son and daughter have just moved to Macclesfield so we decided to try ..we googled and found this restaurant within our distance and another restaurant Bombay flavours ….we tried Bombay flavours last week ….between the 2 restaurants there are no comparison…Bombay flavours were far superior ( wish we had just gone back there ) ..and we will from now on …nearly £50 on food that went in the bin!! …never again!!”
