"Booked a table here for 7pm on a Saturday and appreciate they are probably getting ready for a busy night but the whole experience was incredibly rushed. Soon as we sat down we were asked by a surly waiter how many popadoms we wanted, which were unceremoniously dumped on the table. Immediately asked what we wanted to eat and felt rushed to make a decision. The food came out very quickly (10 minutes tops) and the remaining popadom and condiments removed. We were in and out in 40 minutes. However, the food was nice enough (butter chicken a bit watery) and good value, though we’d usually share a rice but the portion of rice was very small so I’d suggest ordering one for each person. Would probably visit again but maybe not for a special occasion (partners birthday)."

I have dined at this restaurant several times and the food is fantastic. The service is even better and the management team is very friendly. I highly recommend it.

There was more water in my food than meat I had to drain that out , hardly any meat , I have ordered Indian food every Sunday for years this was by far the worst I’ve had in that time !!!!

I have dined at this restaurant before, but this time the food was not impressive. The chicken was chewy and lacked flavor. When compared to Vojan in Ongar, this restaurant was disappointing.

Incredible lunch! We ordered the set menu and it was fantastic, everything was cooked perfectly. It was our anniversary and they even surprised us with a cake at the end to commemorate the occasion! Would highly recommend.

We’ve just had a takeaway delivered and the quality of food is shocking. The curries are extremely watered down to the point where we couldn’t use plates and the meat is rubbery and tasteless. Popadoms are stale and the naan bread is was disgusting. £50 on a meal for two and we could have got a better tasting ready meal. So disappointing

The Seven Elephants is on the Dine app offering 2 for 1 meals Sunday to Thursday. This is not the case. We entered the restaurant this evening and they told us it’s not a deal they offer. The restaurant was empty, we walked across the road to the very busy Bilash and got their 2 for 1 deal. Seven elephants take your restaurant off the Dine app!!!

We visited on the 27th August on time for our booking with friends. Drinks ordered but they had run out of non alcoholic beer! We waited 1hr 20 mins for our order to be taken and then when food arrived only mains turned up, starters had been forgotten and saag aloo was cold! No offer of coffee or desserts Understaffed, such a shame as food was quite nice, others were complaining too

An elegant restaurant and excellent food. The recipe for a good Indian is strictly followed here. Swish decor, napkins and linen. The food was good. We managed to get a table without a prior booking but the restaurant was very busy. Wonderful aroma and sounds of sizzling dishes being delivered to tables. Our food was great and we were happy. Nothing out of the ordinary but a great restaurant nevertheless.

"I was appalled at the quality of service from the moment I arrived to the moment I left, which was about When I arrived I was not asked if I would like a drink, and I wasn't asked throughout the whole meal. The waitress should have seen on the table that we only had tap water, and asked whether we'd like another drink. Then, we ordered our first round of hot food. I pressed the help button and after waiting for a good minutes for the waitress finally arrived. I felt it was too long. At this point in the evening there were three full tables in the whole restaurant so I thought the amount of time we had to wait was poor. Then the food started coming over, but the food didn't come altogether. A couple of dishes came and then a few more and a few more after that. This meant we didn't all eat together, we ate all at different times. I had ordered two dishes to eat at the same time and they didn't arrive at the same time. Very disappointing. The third order of hot food was beyond a joke. It was clear that one of the two waitress wasn't feeling very well (I overheard one of the chef's telling her to go home). She was our waitress. So, we ordered the third round of hot food. minutes later we still didn't have our food. In this time the chef was talking to the ill waitress. I then pressed the help button and I explained that we'd ordered some food and had been waiting a rather long time. I then look round at the waitress and chef and it was absolutely clear that the order didn't go through so it was only then that the food was starting to be cooked. The waitress who took the order explained that there's been lots of issues and she was sorry. As a customer paying for a meal, I don't care about the issues, I still expected good service and my food to turn up. Overall I thought the service was absolutely terrible. I will not be visiting this restaurant again and I will not be recommending the restaurant to anyone."
