We have used Mother India as our-go-to takeaway for years, however our last experience so was disappointing that I will not be back. I collect our order and was amazed to see the filthy (no other word for it I'm afraid) state of the 'white' overalls being worn by the catering and serving staff. The food was equally disappointing with the chicken being far from fresh, and - I'm guessing - bought in frozen. It may be we hit a bad night and things have improved, and I can't account for the difference between our prev ious and last experience, but I'm afraid to say I will look elsewhere in the future.

Food isn't as good as it was years ago. Went to collect tonight and the kitchen looked hectic!!! Think they are throwing it out to keep up with demand.

Ordered at 5 . Told it would be delivered within the hour after 3 phone calls nearly 2 hours later when I said to cancel order driver turned up . Food was cold and some off the order was missing another phone call to be told they would send the missing . It was too late but they didn’t seem worried .

Burnt nann bread dishes missing onion bahji and popodoms tasted like it had been cooked in old oil as did the chips which were cold and hard chickpea dishes also hard and the containers were only filled up half way with the curry through most of it in the bin

DO NOT EAT AT THIS PLACE, FOOD POISONING WARNING.We usually get takeouts from this place occasionally. Foods OK, never had any issue with it. Untill I got the worst butter chicken I have ever eaten. The whole thing was flavourless. On top of that my girlfriend resieved the worst food poisoning she has ever had from her keema aloo. She had the bug for 2 days. And wouldn't stop throwing up. We had to to call a ambulance since it was that bad. Wouldn't usually post very negative reviews, but at this point I don't want anyone to get food poisoning that badly.

2 hours late and not what I ordered. Absolutely fuming, ordered two currys and some sides at 18:18 arrived at 20:10. I ordered a mild bhuna as I'm not great with spicy food, it arrived 2 hours late and very spicy I couldn't eat it. I called to let them know and asked for a refund the guy said he doesn't know how to do a refund and his manager isn't there so couldn't help me. Absolute joke and I'm starving ?

Ordered a lamb tikka masalla, flavourless sauce with chewy and barely edible lamb.. onion bhaji was dry, lacked in flavour and the texture suggested that it's been pre-cooked and then microwaved. Ordered raitha and mint sauce, both pots tasted like plain yoghurt with ZERO difference in texture or flavour. Keema naan must have contained 2 grams of meat at the most. Best part was the rice, which was at least 3 days old and overcooked.. after paying nearly £30 for this disaster of a meal on a quiet Monday evening, I have learnt to never order from this establishment again. This is an honest review coming from a chef, I would never leave such a review without reason, however the food was genuinely terrible.

I ordered Tikka Masala ant the chefs special. Arived when expected. Chefs special was okay and I particularly liked the fresh chilies, the Tikka was not so good, was a shame because the chicken was really nice but that sauce really let the team down. Price was fair and I would order again just not the Tikka Masala.

My favourite place has closed so I went back to MIT for the first time in a few years.My dish arrived hot, however it was dry. The meat was in large slices, was dry and had no flavour. I had a slice of tomato and a small slice of green pepper. It lacked juice and was consistent with a reheated dish.The pilau rice was yellow, flavourless and not at all fluffy.I'll keep their number in my phone but with 'void' next to the number as a reminder to try somewhere else..
