Papa Johns Bournemouth

Ordered a lamb madras but I have had gravy with more spice in it. It was more like a Korma. Lamb was lean and tender but I ave had a lot better curries.

Weird restaurant as at the back there is almost a shrine erected. Anyway whole restaurant needs rebut bushmeat and the menu is outdated. Food is average and customer service is average too. Hardly anyone else in the restaurant when we were there so lacks atmosphere.

Waitress was lovely ...that was about all !Worst Indian food I have ever eaten .....and my partner and I have eaten a lot....wish I had read the reviews before going there ........very expensive for very ordinary foods ....served in cold dishes on warm plates ....never again

In Bournemouth on business. Eat here on my own, very friendly staff and food quality was very good.I liked the interior of the restaurant because It maintains the ambiance of a proper Indian restaurant and has not tried to be modern.All round a good experience and I found the Bill to be a pleasant surprise.Chicken Tikka VINDALOO !!!! ;

I eat here often! If you like traditional Indian food, this is the place for you! The oldest Indian restaurant in Bournemouth and, in my opinion, the best for taste. Everything is cooked from scratch so can be cooked to your style and preference! This is not your typical takeaway with bright food colouring used, it's simply authentic, definitely one to try! :

If you want to have a good indian meal in Bournemouth, then steer well clear of this establishment. First off the decor was shabby with some articficial flowers that looked like they came out of the ark. Also the first table that we were invited to sit at meant that our chins were nearly at table level. The service was very slow. It took half an hour to serve the first course although there were no other customers. This lack of clientale lasted the entire time we were there. My wife and I both had biryanis and were shocked to receive the watery slop that passed for the vegetable currys that come with the main dish. The chicken in my dish was ok but the lamb in the other dish was very disappo...

After walking around for ages looking for somewhere nice to eat, we were tired, hungry and desperate so despite the look of the place (which was empty peak time Saturday night), we walked in. Service was average, only 2 staff on duty (I think 1 doubled up as the chef). They gave me the wrong drink and when I returned it, the owner waiter cum chef implied I was lying...anyway the starters arrived, manky side salad, limp lettuce and soft onions. Poppadoms were stale and cold probably left over from the day before. Curry arrived but was very very oily, tasted okay but I was aware of how much grease there was!! The owner cum chef was very nice and chatty and gave us the complimentary sherry but...

i can honestly say this is one of the worst places ive eaten in a long time .should have known better ,when i went in there was one other person eating,i ordered a pint of lager with a lemonade top , the waitress brought it , i just laughed as it had 3 slices of lemon floating on the top.i odered a starter ,king prawns in sauce on a poppadom , it was discusting ,i also ordered a tandoori mixed grill and a nan bread. the mixed grill appeared 25 minutes later ,consisting of 3 prawns 3 slices of chicken and a sausage like kebab on the plate there was no sauce for the bread to dip and the salad consisted of ,2 day old shredded lettuce ,half a sice of tomato and half a slice of cucumber,it was aw...

Having dined in this Restaurant on a previous visit to Bournemouth, I decided on a re-visit as I was very pleased with the service I received last time. Although it was mid evening, the Restaurant was practically empty, I was greeted by a polite young member of staff, shown to a table and drink order taken. On my previous visit, I spoke to the Chef Mr Ahmed who prepared a special dish for me. I asked if he was still the Chef, was told he was and would come out to see me. The greeting was very friendly as we renewed the acquaintance, he is a very warm and friendly character and keen to please customers. I asked if he could like before do a Naga for me as I enjoy hot curries, he apologised and...
