3 /5 Emma Holmwood: Update: I have reduced to 3*. So disappointed, we ordered and were overcharged. I had presumed there had been another price increase but when the new menus came with our order the prices were the same. I called straight away but was informed it was the drivers last delivery and was going home (around 9pm) and that a credit note would be added to our account. The next time I called I asked for my credit note only to be greeted with complete denial of any kind of system regarding credit notes and that the manager would call. I said we were hungry so how long would this take? Glad I asked as the manager was not due until the next day! Which was irrelevant as no one has ever called. Only £6.25 but we will not be ordering again. So sad as the food was delicious.
Original review: Best Indian for Many Months, really tasty and filling. I did make my own coconut rice but under £20 for two. The Sheek Kebabs were deliciously spiced, the Pakoras were lovely juicy chicken and went up a level when dipped in the dressing. Plenty of coconut in the Nan bread and not too sweet. There were plenty of prawns in the Korma and lots of sauce which was delicately spiced and sweet. When I called the chap was very friendly and helpful on the phone, took down our slightly complicated address easily and the driver found us no trouble, who was also very jolly and friendly and the food was piping hot.
5 /5 Trevor Mepham: I had a take away last night and after reading the reviews just had to leave mine. I order from here about once a month i suppose and have to say that each time the food is lovely and the staff are very friendly. I have the Chicken Dansak with coconut rice, absolutely lovely !!!
1 /5 Charlotte (Charlie): Warning
Do not use samphire star. Placed my order on 3rd party booking site they are registered on. They accepted my order then rang me to say 1 of the dishes requested was not in the offer
The exclusion list does not say the dish I ordered when I said that they said that’s not their problem and I need to take it up the the booking service.
I now I need to wait 5 days for a refund on a £60 order.
The man was so rude to me on the phone never experienced anything like it.
2 /5 Amanda Moisley: Disappointed meal. The onion bhajis were flat tasteless dark brown colour and we had to pick it up to eat as they were so hard to cut through. The rices were overcooked and the special rice had a very strange taste almost an off taste. The curries were bland and the Nan hard.
It seemed like it was all reheated left overs. Won’t be using again
Shuraim Came down to London for two days and ate here exclusively per a mates recommendation. Food was absolutely exceptional! Burgers, Wraps and loaded fries were of the highest quality. The brothers who were working there were very welcoming and soft-spoken. Cannot recommend this place enough and once I head back down to London Ill be sure to visit again :)
Sarah We had some really nice food here. Our starts were chicken satay and battered prawns, both were so good, the batter on the prawns tasted excellent and very fresh. I had hoisin duck with cashews for my main and it was great! The lady who served us was so polite and friendly as well. It was a weekday night and it wasn’t too busy, all our food was served in a timely manner.
Colleen Evans Staying in the area with work and called in without a booking; I was immediately impressed with how busy it was for a Wednesday evening, always a good sign of a quality place! I was welcomed warmly and shown to a table. The food was amazing from start to finish and I was made to feel very well looked after. Its a shame I dont actually live nearby otherwise I would certainly be going back there!
Cristi Braisteanu Second time here, first time was a great experience, great dishes and amazing service, we have been served by a Romanian guy, we completely forgot his name sadly.
The second visit was great too, great dishes, great atmosphere and great service. Thank you Rihanna for your service.
Will definitely be back!
