"Was underwhelmed by this place, having eaten before at the one in the West End and found their dosas to be good. Ate the veg mini buffet meal which comprised too much rice, two chapatis, two papad, a chickpea curry, a sambar, and poriyal (it's a choice between poryial or raita you don't get both but should really get a curd with this included). The chickpeas and poriyal were just ok didn't feel like there was that much masala in them and weren't that spicy, and neither was the sambar. Felt more homestyle but not in a good way (ie. you could make it better yourself at home). Place was freezing too as they door was kept open and initial service was slow. Added to that the prize of £10 as stated on the menu turned out to be £12 on the bill. Sneaky (and a mark off my review just for that). Wouldn't be back in a hurry, based on this visit, given there are several other much better South Indian places."

"Four of us waltzed our way through the Ballroom menu on Wednesday evening. Food and service are great particularly the Chef special dishes. Quite different from the usual menus around town and nice to have something more unique for a change. Begum Bahar was delicious..."

"The food at the restaurant was good and reasonably priced for the area. The service was decent, with a friendly server, but there was a mix-up with the order - I ordered a beef danshak but received a lamb danshak instead. This was not a problem for me as I enjoy lamb. However, my mother-in-law ordered a medium curry and found it to be too spicy. Some extras were added to the bill, but when questioned, it was explained that it was a mistake due to touch screen issues. Despite some minor issues, the response was good and the staff were trying their best. The restaurant is small and located near the toilets, with the door constantly being left open by customers. However, overall I would still consider coming back and would recommend it to others."

"Friends encouraged us to try this takeaway instead of out other favoured local restaurant, stating everything was so fresh, so for our once a month Friday night treat we decided to give it a go. I wish we had just ordered from our reliable trusted restaurant. Poppadum's were rancid and inedible, clearly VERY old fat in the fryer. Pappads were burnt. Mint sauce was watered down so split, the mango chutney was sugary water, also watered down. The Onion salad has very little coriander, no mint and tough. The Nann was undercooked, chewy and insipid, the Tikka Balti had sliced chicken not cubed, but the Tikka Masala had cubed chicken? I have no idea what went wrong, but it was to such an extent I will never ever be ordering again."

"I was initially hesitant to try this restaurant as it always seems to be empty, but I will definitely be coming back in the future. The service was attentive, the food was delicious with generous portions, and the prices were reasonable at £17 for poppadoms, curry, rice, naan, and a large Cobra beer. My only suggestion would be to change the music, which was a bit bland and sounded like background music at a Bangra party."

"Terrible visit. Theywere nice at first. I arrived no reservation at 4.15 pm. Very early and I said I 'd wait but they seated me anyway. The older man/ owner waited on me ...he was nice. We crossed wires when I requested if the music be turned down just a touch. He then lowered it almost to nothing. I have autistic spectrum issues.i wear ear defenders and wax earplugs. I know I am different and I can handle some music. I am careful and go to dine outside busy hours. I don 't ride the bus between 4-6 because too many people and too noisy. Anyway I spoke to older man again after my main meal, when he was clearing away.... to express I like the music I just wishing/enquiring if it could be turned down wee a bit. Finally we got a nice 5/10 volume. I was I only patron in the restaurant and he could have said no. I was easily going to have £30 bill. About 5 pm a delivery driver enters into the restaurant. i knowthis because he brings i delivery bags and sits and plays on his phone.Though I don 't speak Pakistani I knew the older gentleman had told the delivery driver about me and volume of music. About 10 mins in the delivery make turned up volume looking at me as he did. I startled and went to put my eardefenders over my wax plugs already in. He saw my reaction turned it down. He turned it up quite a lot. My meal was over I was just finishing my glass of wine and the older gentleman and I were exchanging niceties. ... Smirking and smiling the delivery man did it again! I was very startled and fed up and jumped to leave. Terrible. No respect. Awful way to end my 1 time visit. I will never go back. I spoke to this young man as I called him directly. He 's not young 35 I 'd say. I told him how unkind he was and he just laughed and smiled and smirked. Like his mother was scolding him. He obviously is spoiled or something to behave in such a way. No knowledge of how to build and keep a restaurant. Patrons are paramount. I was soft and kind....not rude....not demanding. I felt awful. Still feel awful."

"wow, what a great Indian restaurant. after house darlington is en route so called to come in the city for a curry, this place had appeared on google maps. from the moment we arrived, we were treated with ease and respect. the lady who served us was so friendly and polite. our eating was amazing, I even had a curry that had been taken from the menu, they were happy to make it for me. service second to none. very favorable too. we would literally come from lincoln to come here. recommend to the bottom."

"I have made a hühnertikka while I came back, all can see the picture what is dirty that we have made a order of one thing and they will send others to them. I've tried to call her again and again to change it and take her box away, but they haven't picked up my phone. very bad customer service. a month ago we had pizza of very poor quality from this restaurant. will never order from this restaurant, everyone tries to avoid it as far as possible."

"We booked by telephone after leaving a voicemail message... they call back and confirmed they could fit us in for a table of 9.. the waiter suggested we all have a mix tandor. Starter... assume this wpuld make it easy for the kitchen even thou the place was less than 1/2 full.... The starters where very nice... no probs.... Then the main course... everyone thought the food was very bland no spice or flavor to the meals... being the brave fool I wanted to send my meal back as I had selected a spicy kabab from the Cheifs special menu... so I expected some spicy and a bit of taste... both of which where lacking... I tried to get a watiers attention for 5 mins... and no one aas maming sure the table was happy... the only way I got attention was to phone from the table to ask for a waiter.... !!!!... never had to do that before... sent my meal back reordered a Balti of which they just made HOT probs to teach a customer who had dared to complain.. Never going back which is a shame as I entertain at least 5 or 6 customers every month.... too much goid food on offer in the area to go through that again....."

Ashoka Southside

"Ashoka South Side was a disappointment. I booked a table for Christmas Day with the promise of a glass of fizz on arrival, only to be offered a mocktail instead. It wasn't until I questioned this and showed my own copy of the menu that the promised fizz was granted. Two weeks before Christmas, we were asked to pay in full for our meal, but I was asked to pay in cash even though I preferred to use my card. On Christmas Day, despite enjoying the food, the restaurant had overbooked and took my dad's seat away, leaving us cramped on a couch against the wall. The food at Ashoka is nice, but usually lukewarm. I had to ask for my chicken to be reheated on Christmas Day. We received a voucher for £10 off our next meal, but when we tried to use it in January, the staff member was confused about the terms and conditions. The voucher stated a minimum of 2 people, but the staff member insisted it was for a maximum of 2 people. The staff member also failed to mention that the voucher couldn't be used with the pre-theatre menu until we tried to pay. When I asked to see the terms and conditions on the voucher, none were provided. Our bill came to £87, so with the voucher it would have been £77, but the staff member refused to honor it. As someone with a background in International Business Law, I know that failing to clearly state the terms and conditions of a voucher is breaking the law. The staff member's insistence on not providing the discount has led me to decide not to return to Ashoka. The food is good, but not exceptional, and I would rather dine at a place that values customer loyalty. It's a shame, as Ashoka is a local restaurant with potential, but the lack of transparency and customer care has left a sour taste in my mouth."

"Big group of uni students, everyone paid for their food individually and made sure we had paid for everything on each table. And yet at the end of the evening the manager tells us that there is £80 unaccounted for! We challenged this and each one of us showed our bank accounts and cross-checked that the same money on the bill had been taken out of our account. After showing this, the manager quickly back tracked and that number of £80 miraculously reduced to £25! Eventually we paid this amount but there was some definite tinkering around with the total bill. Don’t eat the popadoms even when they bring them out without you asking! Each one costs £2 and the chutney pot costs £9. The waitress was rude and obnoxious and on multiple occasions she pulled away people’s food before they had even finished in an attempt to get us to leave! Truly awful service. Not sure whether they were aware that we are uni students so we are somewhat naive but this was unacceptable and frankly disgusting behaviour. Not the first time I have heard this happening at Savera! Never again…"

"The restaurant is simple in decor, but the staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. I enjoyed the samosas and vegetable bhaji as my favorite appetizers, along with plain naan and chicken curry. The highlight was the affordable prices and the option to pay with a card, giving us great value for our money."

"we had a party of four to dinner in thali and we are able to go on a Friday night, so was concerned that it could not be as good as the reviews; that was quickly wrong. the wee are cheap, although a small selection we have skipped the appetizers, with taking off papadams, and just went for the main course. the table had lamb rogan josh, chicken tikka makhani and tandoori chicken. the lamb was excellent, spicy but not hot, tandoori chicken was nice, but a bit dry so that the mint sauce was required. Chicken tikka makhani was perfectly beautiful and creamy, mild in seasoned, but very tasteful side of sag paneer, lemon rice and pulao reis. say paneer was...read more"
