Quick info
About Himalia Take Away
On Ferham Rd in Rotherham, Himalia Take Away is an Indian takeaway serving in the evenings, Tuesday to Sunday and closed Mondays. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken. The tandoori chicken is cooked on the bone, a detail that keeps it a recurring order alongside the rest of the menu. Calling ahead is an option, though getting through can involve a wait, with phoned-in orders sometimes taking upwards of fifteen minutes to place. The kitchen works from the counter for collection, and the menu draws on the kind of dishes typical of the format. The description on file points to authentic cuisine as the approach behind the cooking. With service confined to evening hours across most of the week, the shop functions as a straightforward collection point for the surrounding streets rather than a sit-down room.

“I dno where to start, potatoes in rice? Curries could be labeled of what they are, chips were cold, kebab was with a burger added in, not very happy for the price we paid for a family meal, onion bhaji were dry, we looked at reviews previously, not being that good. But thought you never know so we tried guess it looks up to the bad reviews cheers, wont be ordering again sorry.”

“Food came fast but it was disgusting. The curry was bland, greasy and flavourless and the rice was so water it was swimming. Full of soggy onions which I didn’t ask for nor were they stated on the menu. The mango chutney was vile too. Chicken WAS cooked properly and was the nicest part of the meal.”

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers come for the curries, with the shahi korma and Chana Puree called stunning and a tandoori chicken masala with garlic keema naan described as the best curry one diner has had. Friendly staff, an open plan kitchen and reasonable prices recur in the praise, and a few say the phone line is slow to get through because the place is busy. Complaints are specific. Tandoori chicken arrived dry and smelling of plastic, onion bhaji were dry, chips were cold, and one family meal had potatoes in the rice. Another diner found the curry bland and greasy, with watery rice and soggy onions not listed on the menu, though the chicken itself was cooked properly. One chicken tikka wrap on garlic naan came with burnt, dry chicken and no taste.
