"Great food as always, but… we came for a meal to celebrate a family birthday as we have done dozens of times over the years. This restaurant is a family favourite the food is absolutely amazing. However, last night at the point of paying the bill was split equally between 3 family members with each total being rounded up to a nice even number to add on the tip. The first 2 members paid exactly the same amount, but when it came to the 3rd member of the group who was sitting furthest away from the waiter taking the card payments, instead of charging the the same as he had done twice already, he added an extra £10 then held the terminal price towards himself so the last member had to just reach out make contact with the back of the machine to pay, without seeing the charge. It was only that a member of the group seated closer noticed at the last second that additional money had been added on as it was in very big, bright digits facing the waiter. The general feel at the time from all was that this did not feel like an accident. The last member of the group to pay was a more frail member of the party which we obviously feel was seen as an easier target for such a ‘mistake’. Only £10, but if you add this on a handful of times here there it certainly adds up. Also to add, Village Indiya is a restaurant with a really great reputation, we don’t think that this is something the restaurant would engage in, but clearly a ploy from an individual trying to make a few quid extra. We were left feeling disappointed. Keep an eye on your payments!"

Food superb. Plenty of food served. Very tasty. Staff attentive. Only criticism was the soft drinks being flat. Can’t wait to go back. When you are in a restaurant that is full mid week and people waiting for a table you know the food is good! View menu

This restaurant has got the wow factor. The best Indian meal I have had for a long time. Flavour of the chicken was fantastic, service very friendly and very good. We are lucky to have this restaurant locally just wish they offered a delivery service,

I went for dinner with my wife, Village Indiya was nothing short of impeccable. The staff members were attentive and friendly. The waiters were knowledgeable about the menu, offering recommendations and accommodating any dietary restrictions or preferences. My wife and I particularly enjoyed the Lamb Jalfrezi and King Prawn Puree. View menu

Have been visiting since early last year, is always busy, buzzing atmosphere and impressive. Staff are always very busy and the food is consistently a great standard across the whole menu. Best Indian for quality and service in the area. Always well looked after here despite being so full, appreciate the hard working nature of the staff who give this place its charm and buzz.

Service is 10/10, the staff are very quick to help with anything you need. As for the food, if I could give it an 11/10, I would. My recommendation is the chicken karma sutra, however, the venison korai was beautiful, almost wish I ordered that upon having a piece. Cobras on tap, you can’t really complain. Very happy customer, and although this is my second time here, I’d certainly think making the trip from Southend is worth every penny.
