It's a lovely place to enjoy Lunch and dinner with friendly service and the food is excellent, I will go back again with friends and family.

Absolute gem of a restaurant. This is not just old fashioned Indian food catering to western palettes.I've tried pretty much every dish on the menu at some point. The chef is talented and the staff were super polite but not over the top. The best Indian restaurant in Surrey.

I booked in for a Bollywood night. There was 4 of us, 2 people are meat eaters and 2 people are vegans. When I booked online as suggested by a member of staff when I called, as if they couldn't do it over the phone (all the bookings where hand written on a piece of paper when we got there, oh and the only thing that was noted is that i paid £20 deposit but not the fact that our table required vegan based menu) in the notes section online I specifically said we will require a vegan menu. When we were seated at the table the waiter didn't give us a drinks menu or a set food menu for us to look at. When they served food I questioned about which one was a vegan option, the staff looked very confused they didn't know what I was talking about. Asked to speak to a manager, the waiter didn't even bother getting the manager so I had get up to find someone only to discover that the manager was not available as he was in the kitchen busy, im sure that he was completely unaware that there is a table that required a vegan option menu. A lovely female member of staff came out from the kitchen assuring me that there is vegan based menu, trust me there wasn't. The starter was ok, but to have 2 potato dishes, cauliflower and lentils as a main with £40 ahead and no desert, for a restaurant its pretty appalling.The menu for meat eaters was ok, really not worth £40 ahead.Now we get to the service... poor doesn't even describe it. Chef came across as having an attitude every time he attended the table. It did not feel very welcoming or accommodating towards our needs, and it came across as a bother. After the mains We were not even asked about deserts, I had to get up and ask if there is any deserts to come, 2 of us had a desert, which was ok, too frozen couldn't even use a spoon but for vegan option all we got As a "desert" is coffee black, couldn't even have milk as had no other milks available.£80 for a standard of vegan options we had was absolutely outrageous.Most waiters didn't really understand if you asked them a simple question, all we got is I go and get someone but that someone never came.I never write reviews because opinions do vary, but after this meal I was extremely disappointed with the restaurant atmosphere, attitude and just simply not valuing their customer.There was only one lady that worked there behind the bar that actually was helpful and pleasant.

TAKEAWAY NIGHTMARE.Had a great meal in the restaurant a few weeks ago so thought we would try the delivery!DISASTER!! arrived 40mins early and so we refused it. The gentleman on the phone said that they didn’t know the delivery time (the receipt had the time and was circled in biro). We asked for a re-delivery and gave the food back. We then called 15mins after the expected delivery time to be told “we are RE-HEATING it”Thanks but NO THANKS. Will not be ordering a delivery from them EVER again. SO DISAPPOINTING.

Pre ordered food for delivery at 8.30pm. Was told '10 minutes' at 9pm, 9.15pm and 9.30pm. Food turned up at 9.50 and the order was wrong and cold. I think they just sent what they

Cheap and cheerful, 15 quid for a buffet lunch. Not much variety but tasty, though the lamb starter was very salty. Not much choice for vegetarians.

Food was ok but the service wasn’t very good. They cleared our plates whilst others were still eating - the restaurant was very empty but we felt very rushed. They got our mains order wrong and then overcharged us when the bill arrived (by adding an additional main meal). Sadly won’t be returning.
Unbelievable curry house what can I say? Wow, every dish was absolutely amazing. If you’ve never been here, I strongly recommend this place.

Our first time at Amani! The food was exceptional - fresh authentic flavours and spice. The waiter was very attentive and the chief made sure to greet us and take the time to speak with us. This is a gem of an Indian and we will definitely be back!

Bollywood night started two hours late, food was served an hour late. Service was horrible and rude. The manager was called and he was very rude! The food wasn’t special either. Will never go again and don’t recommend it.Parking: No parking out the restaurant. Had to park on the street

Service was very slow, food was over salted to point of inedible. Drinks order was wrong and waiting staff ignoring us and others. Sexist waiting staff even my drink (the wrong one admittedly) was given to my husband with his drink. I took it back to bar myself and then waiting 10 minutes and had to remind them I was still waiting (it was a soft drink and not hard to pour from the can)
