Such a warm welcome as soon as you walk in. Staff are very smart and professional. The venue has been recently renovated to a high standard clean and welcoming. As for the food that was exceptional. I have eaten in many Indian restaurants and this has to be rated as one of the best and very good value for money. Keep up the excellent work guys we will definitely be back - worth the trip from Hertfordshire.

Really bad food. Mattar paneer was not proper Indian cheese just some stringy yellow stuff melted in the sauce. Also had a weird sweet flavour as did two of the curries. (They didn’t even contain coconut and I have no idea why). The prawns in the prawn curry were dry & over cooked. The chicken curries contained a few pieces of chicken drowned in a slurry type sauce. Horrible. My brother said even if he’d had eight pints he wouldn’t have wanted it.

Reluctantly posting this review but given I sent the attached message to the number on their website and it’s been read and ignored I feel obliged to. The image is of a takeaway sharing platter for two at the princely sum of £11.95

The food was excellent. The service was exceptional and staff were very friendly. Definitely recommend and will be going back next time we are in the area.

One of the best Inidian resturants. Rye is lucky to have you.

We had a take away. Collecting our order meant we got a free side dish. The food was ready at the time stated and was delicious. One of the best curries I’ve had in ages!

Really tasty curry. Always try to visit when we are down from London. Good value, fresh ingredients.

From the moment I walked in this evening the staff looked after me as if I was an old friend coming in again to spend my money, the food was superb and the service even better thanks so much guys for a great meal and evening I will be back next time I am working in the area

We visited here twice on our four days in Rye, that should speak for itself. The service and food here is incredible. The owner can't do enough to help you, even dropping your takeaway order to us in a local pub. My partner is very particular with his curry and finally found the perfect chicken madras, along with everything else we tried (and trust me he's tried a lot of curry). Pleased to have supported such a great small restaurant we'll be back for sure when we're back down that way.

My husband had a lamb curry, which he enjoyed. There wasn't very much on the menu for me as a vegan. Even the dhal included dairy. The waiter was quite indignant that they catered for vegans well, given that they had no specialist vegan chefs. I think this is a narrow minded cop out. In my experience, if you can make good curry, you can make good vegan curry, and that definitely wouldn't include frozen mixed veg! Far too many Indian restaurants do this. Fresh potatoes, onions, tomatoes, cauliflower, carrots and aubergines are readily available. There were no vegan starters. This too is a cop-out. They're just not interested, and it is likely that the bhaji mix has been pre-prepared. we've had freshly made pakora in several Indian restaurants that do care and can be bothered. From what we could tell, their 'fine dining' sister restaurant 'Mahdi Lounge' has a very similar menu, equally non-vegan friendly, the only difference being that the ambience is slightly better and they charge more. Disappointing.

Visited here whilst staying in Rye fur the weekend. Staff accommodating, Nice food, service slow due to takeaway service. Think this should just be a restaurant or takeaway not both!

Found ourselves in Rye and saw both restaurants but decided to visit this one. Definitely not disappointed with our choice and the food was simply excellent and we would both recommend and would eat here again.
