Tandoori Empire

Ordered a takeaway from here, was ready on time and was greeted in a friendly manner upon entry. However, when I reached home the food was a completely different story. Ordered the chilli paneer, there was 5 small pieces of paneer deep friend in batter and coated with Thai sweet chill sauce. Covered in oil and onions. As well as being extremely greasy, it was way too sweet and not what I expected from a very popular dish that I have tried in many other restaurants. The next dish was the mixed vegetable tawa, again overly sweet and covered in onions. Barely any vegetables in there other than a couple of potatoes. My wife had two bites of this and left the rest. I ordered a chicken tikka masala. The quality of the chicken was below standard and again, the dish seemed to be have been made with a bag of a sugar. I rang the restaurant soon after and was just met with a very defensive response, the gentleman I spoke to wasn't rude but essentially implied that it was my fault for ordering dishes that were meant to be sweet. I have never had a chilli paneer or a mixed vegetable tawa that was sweet, even a chicken tikka masala surely can't taste of a bag of sugar. I didn't get a chance to complain about the naan breads which were burnt black because I knew from the response I received, it wasn't really going to go anywhere. I have never known a restaurant where the customer complains and is essentially told that they are wrong because they ordered the wrong dishes. To top it all off, both my wife and myself experienced an upset stomach soon after. I definitely would not recommend this at all. Service: Take out Meal type: Dinner Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4

Food was fresh and nice and location is good, service was pretty rude they were constantly trying to pressure us into leaving as soon as we had finished. Plates were cleared and the waiter says have you been told you need to leave, people are waiting for your table . We had been there a grand total of 1 hour 6 minutes....jeeeez.

My king prawn sagg was perfect. But my friend asked for a recommendation that turn out to be ridiculously hot. Like too hot for me and that’s very unusual. Maybe a mistake? That’s the only time there’s been an issue so still 4 stars Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £20–30 Recommended dishes: King Prawn Malaya
