First time i ordered it was brilliant couldn’t fault them.
Second time was awful, got talked into ordering a curry pizza from a friend! The curry pizza was like chewing on cardboard
and the chips the same, very disappointed! Should have stuck to ordering a curry as usual.

We’ve been before and it’s been good!
Bought food tonight – not edible through the amount of oil and grease, burnt popadoms (how do you even burn them) – cold when we got it home 5 minutes away a waste of nearly £50.
Food got binned without eating it was that bad I may add!

Ordered a takeaway for four of us. Balti is usually top quality. However , whoever is chefing tonight your foods crap. Mango chutney is supposed to be a chutney not a watery liquid. Garlic bread burnt on the underside. Chicken on pizzas with bones (granted you are warned, may contain bones) we asked for chilli sauce and didn’t get chilli sauce. Asked for mayo, didn’t get mayo. Asked for red salt on chips, you’re obviously running out of stock. Won’t be ordering any time soon. Romero in clitheroe and Indian on Whalley road will be my go to places, never had a bad one yet.

Used to be a regular customer, takes in the back end of 2 hours delivery. Even when going to the shop and ordering the food it is barely warm when arriving 10 mins from the shop to home. Ordered recently didn’t receive within the time so rang the shop to which they had a power conveniently. If it was a one off I’d take it as a bad day but poor quality has Been regularly over a period of time

First visit here after being tempted by Tik tock videos. Ordered a donner kebab on Garlic Naan which was delicious. Only disappointment was no option for chicken kebab as they had run out. Will be back to try Chicken kebab in future
