4 of us Arrived to the store in the evening, was very quiet as there was 1 other table, was sat down by a gentleman who gave us the option to sit where we wanted, this gave me hope that it was a good visit, as this was our first time coming to this store on recommendation. The gentleman didn’t ask us if we had any allergies which is a major thing working for food and hygiene. After ordering our poppadoms and starters the dips that came out were tiny. The starter portions lacked and my friend ordered a drink which came in a small glass even though we asked for a large.Food wait wasn’t that long however when mains came out the food was disappointing. It was bland and lacked flavour. The chicken was tough and the lamb was chewy, I didn’t say anything because I was starving. We then was watched 24/7 by one of the waiters making us all feel uncomfortable, the gentleman who sat us was stood at the bar eating and watching videos on his phone that was quite loud, during the meal I went to go to the bathroom and saw through the door the ‘chef’ sat on the floor on the phone taking calls, and when the bathroom door opened it was one of the waiting staff who blew smoke out as he was leaving, so there are members of staff Vaping in the toilets. The bathroom floor was very wet as well. The drinks were quite flat but somewhat enjoyable. Overall not as good as other places around the area. I don’t think I will be coming back as the price per person is averaging about 30£ each. Just wish the food was a bit better as I had high expectations for this restaurant. The staff were very attentive I’ll give them that and food wait wasn’t long, it’s a shame.Dietary restrictions: Didn’t ask if we had any allergies or dietary restrictions.Parking: It is located on high street so very difficult to find parking.

Came on recommendation, left unsatisfied.The food was bland, chicken was tough, garlic rice had the hard roots of the garlic in which I had to keep spitting out, starter portion sizes did not live up to the price charged, was watched all the way throughout my meal which made me uncomfortable as a female customer & the total for the meal was way above what the prices were on menu (extra £15), didn’t even ask for allergies.My friends starter had a mediocre 3 small chunks of lamb which we all laughed at as we thought it was taking the mick.A staff member was stood at the desk eating and watching loud TikTok videos infront of everyone, not something I’d expect if service charge was added without telling us if was added (assumed charge)I got a bad feeling on entering as it was empty and no take away orders were completed the whole 1hr 30mins but felt optimistic, will be sticking to my regular on the same road from now on.Would I eat here again? No.

Me and my other half stopped by while looking for somewhere new to eat. It’s safe to say that Simla did not disappoint and we shall be returning. The service was professional and fantastic. The staffs uniform makes the dining experience feel more formal. The curries were absolutely beautiful. We didn’t order any rice or naan but we instead decided to use the popadoms as a filler which paired up really well. The portion size was good and we had 2 full and happy bellies. We was also given an extra generous complimentary popadom bowl which we were very grateful to receive. Simla looks after their guests.

Very bad experience after our loss. Went here for first time out after loss of our mother. Was happy with starters BUT!!!. Everything from then on went wrong. They took order of a starter for my sister who has crones wrong!. She only ever orders a starter due to being only able to eat small portions. Had to almost fight to get this rectified at time. Also the prawn tikka was served as hard prawns in shells inedible and on trying to explain was met with prawns should be this way???? Knowing it is not as have lived on the coast but we were treated like stupid ppl and a certain member of staff visibly getting angry at us. Treated appallingly. 2 females sisters dining alone. Wonder if our husbands had been in attendance we would have been treated as badly. I think not. Shame as this would have been ours and family members go to . You should be ashamed comes to mind.

Customer service was very good from waiting staff. Most of the food was nice but some... so so. I would go again to try something other than my order as I feel they're a decent little restaurant with a good possibility of improving the food.Kid-friendliness: Very friendly.
