  “Me and Husband went for a curry after not going for some years. Food was still as good as we remembered. Service was excellent, couldn't do enough for us. Everyone was very friendly. We will definitely make it a more regular spot again.”

  “I have always held the Kismet in very high regard and after not visiting for some time I decided to book a table for my anniversary. We were welcomed on arrival and promptly sat at our table. As for the food we both had poppadoms, onion bhaji and meat samosas which were very nice. For main I ordered the Kismet Tandoori Kori Massala which was very rich as stated on the menu and made a nice change to my usual go to curry. My partner had the butter chicken curry and said this was excellent also. We shared rice and both had a naan and were definitely stuffed!! The portion sizes were also very good compared to other places in the area. The service was absolutely excellent from the moment we entered the building to when we left. I will definitely not leave it as long for my next visit and I would definitely recommend Kismet to anyone looking for a decent curry and great service.”

  “If I could give 0 stars for customer service I would do! I ask for egg fried rice they say pilau rice? I say no egg fried and thats after i asked him to turn the over powering blaring music down that was playing in the background.. Of which he responded "no i like this". I then ask if its okay to pay cash upon delivery at the door, they said thats not possible i must pay via a bank transfer? I have never heard such shambles in all of my life.. yet after immediately calling another Kismet venue absolutely everything I request was met to my expectations!? So definitely no to this place, Do not order from this Kismet place they are nothing but a mouthful!”

  “At last - a very good curry house. After eating many disappointing curries at a multitude of Indian restaurants it was a joy to enjoy an excellent meal at the Kismet where food , service and surroundings perfectly align. If you are in the area then definitely give it a go !”

  “Well I can’t speak for sitting in this restaurant as we had a takeaway delivered. The food took over an hour to cook and deliver so get your order in prior to 5pm The food arrived hot and cooked to perfection. We tried 2 curries with rice chips and the good old elephant ear! Nan bread! We had starters of onion bargie and lamb shish kebab. The food was delicious! And I would highly recommend this place”

  “A bit of late review, but we had the pleasure of dining at the Kismat Restaurant in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, and I must say, it was a delightful culinary experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, we were delightfully greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the tone for the meal ahead. The menu at the Kismat Restaurant offers a tantalizing array of options, each promising a unique blend of flavours. We left it to the owner to decide for us who ordered a mix of their specialities dishes, and we were not disappointed at all. The attention to detail and the use of fresh, quality ingredients truly shone through in every dish. The highlight of the meal for me was undoubtedly the "Lamb Green Masala", a perfectly cooked meats, accompanied by a green pastes, all seasoned to perfection. The flavours danced on my palate, creating a harmonious symphony of tastes that left me craving for more. Although we shared all the other dishes and equally all of these dishes were top notch 👌. What sets the Kismat Restaurant apart is their commitment to authenticity. The dishes reflect the rich heritage of the cuisine, no wonder why they claimed to be the pioneer in this field, and the chefs' dedication to maintaining traditional cooking techniques is evident in every bite. The flavours transported me to India, and I appreciated the effort taken to deliver an authentic experience. Service at the Kismat Restaurant was impeccable. The staff was friendly, attentive, and ready to answer any questions about the menu. They also ensured that the food was served promptly and at the right temperature, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. In conclusion, my visit to the Kismat Restaurant in Stoke was a culinary adventure I won't soon forget. If you're looking for a place to indulge in the vibrant and delicious flavours of true and pioneer Indian cuisine, this is definitely the place to be. I can't wait to return and explore more of their enticing offerings. Highly recommended!”

  “Quick service and very friendly staff. Lots of choice for food with the classics and some different options too. The chutneys were lovely and the poppadoms were clearly fresh and hot! The curry's were lovely, and had lots of flavour and meat. Not too busy, as visited on a Wednesday night. My chair was a bit wobbly when I sat down so tried not to move too much!”

  “Just ordered takeaway, usually great, so disappointed, asked for well done naan, came soggy, had to put it in the oven, asked for crispy chips, came dripping in grease and soggy, had to throw away and make our own! They don't listen to what you request.The The rest of the meal was nice. We will think twice before ordering again! Always great food and service”
