This restaurant is not what it used to be, ate in the restaurant & had to listen to the staff in the kitchen arguing & shouting, along with the manageress. Very uncomfortable & toxic atmosphere. Manageress was rude & miserable, not very welcoming at all. Lovely Spanish waiter, along with English chef were the only members of staff trying to hold down the restaurant together whilst the arguments were going on. Manageress stormed past us with a face like thunder, very unprofessional. We will not be returning due to her attitude! Thank you to the chef & the waiter mentioned above for being so polite & friendly! They are wasted in this restaurant.

Came here tonight to meet friends as we love this place but unfortunately wasn’t a great experience, food was delicious as always and staff are very friendly and quick to stop and chat but the restaurant was so cold, we all kept our coats and scarf on whilst eating our dinner. Asked the waiter about the heating and he replied the heating takes a while to warm up?! Had a lovely evening with friends but sitting at the table trying to eat my meal with a thick coat on isn’t my idea of fun. Such a shame as this is the second time it’s happened so won’t be coming back untill the summer!!

One of the best in the area. Very tasty food.Parking: Sometimes challenging to park nearby, use pay and display at the Village Hall which is free after 7 PM

We ate here with friends 5yrs ago that live locally and we had a great experience, the restaurant was vibrant. Sadly our recent experience wasn’t the same, when we asked for alcohol free beer we were told this place is for real drinkers ( it was probably a joke ) but for non drinkers or people in recovery that’s not a good response. These days most restaurants have at least one alcohol free larger / beer on offer. The food was good but standard Indian restaurant type. Chicken tikka was definitely the best of what we ordered. The Dahl was poor but the other sides and Nan bread we ok. It was a weekend night and no more than 4 tables were eating so maybe it’s not as it use to be. The waitress was lovely and very friendly. I don’t feel I’d return but hope this feedback makes them up their game a bit. I do wish them well, I just was expecting the same experience as my first visit.

Terrible service. We waited for 2 hours and our meals never arrived. The restaurant wasn't busy but we were told (when asked- they didn't come to apologise) that we were definitely next. After 2 hours we gave up and walked out. The manager offered nothing complementary. You would have thought they would take off at least 1 drink. But they were not apologetic at all. When we said we unfortunately wouldn't be back, the waitress said "okay have a nice night." Disgusting service. Avoid!!!!

We came to pick up our takeaway, slotted for 7.10pm, after ordering it at 6.20. At 7.50, it was finally ready. Numerous deliveroo orders came and went and the 3 front-of-house staff seemed to be struggling to keep up with the half-full restaurant. I love the food here and it’s a shame that their kitchen ordering system seemed to go that awry. I will not be ordering a takeaway from here again.
Very good food and great service. Visited a couple of weeks ago as I was in the area would certainly visit again

Excellent food, garlic naan was the best I have ever had. So fresh. Chicken korma was also the best I have every had. Service wasn't in your face, but attentive initially, when it came time to pay the bill it was hard to get any staff attention and when we got the bill, staff took a while to come back. Luckily we had cash so we didn't need to sit there any longer.

I have been going to Ivory tusk for many years and have to say, it is the best Indian food restaurant around. The food is always very tasty and ample amounts in each portion. The service is always attentive and polite. I have eaten in a lot of Indian restaurants and this is by far the best around and great value for the money. I have only ever had 2 take aways and always collect rather than have delivered via delivery. Full marks every time so well done to the Ivory Tusk team.
