"I have been to this restaurant a few times now and am very happy with the food and the service. I was a bit sceptical when they decided not to seve alcohol any more. Having been back, they have an off licence next door which in fact works out cheaper. Courteous and friendly staff and I'm very happy with the food quality. I would definitely recommend this restaurant."

"This establishment has a great selection on the menu. On entering the premises, one can see through the semi open plan kitchen with two neatly dressed ethnic chefs preparing food in specially designed uniforms. The place looked clean and the staff very amicable and friendly. The food taste absolutely great and the portions are generous. The owner is extremely courteous and always asks for comments about their food and service. We have been using the delivery service for several years and has absolutely no qualms about the quality and service."

"I have to say I was very surprised how bad my experience was with the Spice Merchant was. It started very badly with the food taking two hours to be delivered. This was after several calls over that period where we were told that the food was on its way and should be with us in five minutes. That was a bad start but the food was just as bad. The only saving grace were the starters of chicken lamb lollipops which were tasty. The main courses were all very disappointing, lacking spice and flavour. They were also swimming in oil. The breads were also flavourless. I don’t like to give reviews like this but in this case it is well deserved especially as it was extremely expensive. £150 for five people. For that kind of money it should have been allot better. Worst curry I have had I recent memory! Service: Delivery Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £30–40"

"The main courses feature authentic Bangladeshi recipes at reasonable prices. While the starters may seem a bit pricey for takeout at first, they offer generous portions and delicious flavors that make them worth the cost. The poppadoms are a great value, with all the extra accompaniments included by Simla. If you prefer your tandoori dishes less charred, be sure to request this when ordering. My only complaint is that the naan and chapatti are consistently thick and heavy, which is not to my taste. Despite asking for changes, this has not been accommodated. There is also a separate fast food menu for those with varied tastes, although I have not personally tried it. Parking is plentiful outside after 6pm for collection orders, and there are comfortable sofas available for waiting. Overall, a decent option for a curry meal."

"This was our first visit to this restaurant which is about 5 minutes walk from Chatham Station. There is a varied menu and plenty of vegetarian, fish and meat options. We had difficulty in making our choices, but the waitress made recommendations. The food was delicious and the portions were generous and it was excellent value. Staff were very friendly and the service was very good."

"The chicken Biriyani meals used to be of high quality but now too much salt has overpowered this particular meal which ruined the taste considering how much they are each one is now £12.95 and have gone up in price I would of expected better. spent over £30 and couldn't eat them because the salt taste made the meal impossible to eat. Poppadom's were 60p last year now have gone up to 95p in price I presume this is why there is a 20% off deliveries when you spend over £20. Very disappointed"

"very nice restaurant. love the interiors. beautiful looking place with a bar. and apparently they soon open a Sheesha lounge and look forward to it! had a great experience here. Eat: we started with Indian ingwer and Masala tea, which was really good, and pappadum. for the main course we ordered chicken tikka masala and a fried rice, dhaba chicken and pilaureis and Karahi sprout with plain naan. I must say we were not disappointed by any of the dishes. the food was delicious and portioned enough to fill it completely. price: a little expensive, too little for us students, but I would say it worth it. service: the staff is very polite and beautiful! very happy with the service. definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves or wants to try good Indian food!"

"Still the best local Indian restaurant with a great menu and truly fantastic service! Some restaurants reinvent themselves as they have become complacent, stale, even stuck in the past….. Thankfully that is not the case with Achari! Achari is perfectly located near Heathrow and serves up amazingly fresh and tasty dishes. With an open and clean interior, you can enjoy your meal with large groups of friends or more intimate with your loved ones. Thanks to all at Achari, keep up the great experience!"

"Had dinner at the Spice Merchant in Beaconsfield for a girls night out. From the moment we entered the restaurant we were all treated as royalty! The food was delicious great taste, quality, presentation and good portion sizes. The location of the restaurant is on the high street and it is huge inside with seating in the back garden area too. I could not faulty anything and definitely deserves a 5/5 rating!!!"

"We sat in one of the pods, which were fantastic, and the food was absolutely delicious. However, we had to wait an hour and a half for our starters and nearly an hour for our mains, which was quite excessive, especially given the high prices. Despite this, we will definitely be returning and have recommended it to everyone we've talked to, as the food was truly that good."

"Although the food was nice, the experience was not! The manager was rude and did not make us feel welcome. Rushed us to order saying we had limited time at the table as it was booked for another group in 90 minutes. Then the food took forever to arrive. Waiting for the bill and for a waiter to come and take our payment felt like an eternity! We left 45 minutes after the time the manager said the next booking was due to arrive, they never came because there was no other booking! One waiter opened the door for us when we left and said thank you. That was the most polite any of the staff had been all evening. Very disappointing and no wonder the staff are miserable with a manager like that! We were looking for a place for the 8 of us to meet up regularly, it won't be at Vakas! Will never go there for a meal again!"

"I have ordered food from this restaurant several times now and have no complaints about the quality or price. However, the delivery service is very poor. The first time we ordered, we waited nearly 2 hours and I ended up walking to the restaurant to pick it up, only to receive a call from my wife saying the food had arrived while I was out. I tried calling to check on the order, but couldn't get through. Other reviews seem to agree with this experience. They also have a permanent advertisement for delivery drivers in the window, which might be part of the problem. It's a great curry house for collection since we are only 5 minutes away."

"This restaurant seemed perfect for our group of 6 friends with a round table. The food was delicious and the portions were generous, although we were allowed to order too much. However, we found the prices for pappadams and naan to be excessive. The food was served in large containers with lids, which made it difficult to fit everything on the table. The bill came to £60 per person, including 3 reasonably priced bottles of wine and some beers. Considering the price, we expected the service to be more refined, but it fell short of our expectations."

"We stopped by for lunch while exploring the area. At first, I thought the restaurant was closed because it was so quiet, but the manager greeted us warmly. We ordered some Bombay-style snacks to nibble on, and they were quite spicy (I usually avoid spicy foods), but very enjoyable nonetheless. My partner's chicken starter was a bit too salty for our taste (we try to limit salt for health reasons), but the chef came over to chat with us and generously offered to prepare another chicken starter right away. He also adjusted our mains to suit our preferences. The mango lassi was delicious, as was the virgin piña colada. The portion sizes were great too (pictures were taken after we finished eating)."

"To my surprise, many restaurants are closed on Sunday evening in London. Every time I looked up a vegan restaurant on Happy Cow, it turned out it was closed. Since it was late and I was hungry, I had no other option than to select a vegetarian restaurant close by. 1947 Restaurant and Bar is both an Indian and Italian restaurant. The entire menu is vegetarian, however only around 20% is vegan. Many more meals can be made vegan, but so many of them had cheese listed as an ingredient that I didn 't want to run the risk. What if there 's an error in communication between the waitress and the kitchen? Or what if the chef accidentally adds cheese out of habit? I had lots of time to make up my mind, because even though the restaurant was very quiet it took a long time until the waitress came to take my order. I selected vegan biryani because I like biryani and because I 've tried it at so many restaurants that it 's easy to compare. It took a long time for the biryani to be prepared, but then it was served beautifully and smelled divine (as it should be). However, compared to other restaurants it 's a rather simple biryani. It has only one kind of rice (it is often served with both white and yellow rice) and only a few vegetables. There was no tofu, mushroom, potato, no nuts or any protein source. Also, the yoghurt was missing (which is used to extinguish the fire caused by the spices). The portion was generous and the taste was good. Although it was mentioned on the menu, 1947 Restaurant and Bar adds a 12.5% service tax. Why don 't restaurants just increase all prices on the menu instead of giving the customers a nasty surprise at the end?"

"Since we last visited some years ago the Everest has made a real effort with their décor including a new beer garden out front. Lighting inside is decorative and colourful but overall ambience is a little too bright maybe? Our food was very disappointing, we ordered Everest Special Mismas and Mixed Grill Masala as mains. Both were higher priced dishes that were supposed to include prawns but there were none in either dish. The Mismas didn 't look anything like the menu photo but in fairness they do state Photos are for suggestion only: Actual Platters may appear DIFFERENT . The Masala grill was described as medium sauce but our dish was very mild with no trace of chilli heat. The stuffed paratha was undercooked and greasy. Pilau rice and vegetable bhuna side however were both very good. Kingfisher and Cobra are served on draft but both were charged 30p a pint more than the printed menu price it 's gone up was the explanation. Prices overall are fair but I was hoping for authentic tasty food that at least lived up to the menu descriptions."
