The staff are always friendly. Nearly all of their dishes are cooked with butter as well as oil so watch out for this if you are avoiding dairy products. However, the restaurant are happy to cook dishes without butter, ideal for vegans such as myself, or those with allergies.

BTW I did let the restaurant know about the first disk, but thought I would give them a 2nd go and I'm glad I did. The Chicken Dansak was I would say almost perfect, succulent Chicken, just the right amount of sweet/sourness and tasty fresh ingredients. It redeemed itself after the first takeaway. Recommended!

How did I not know Dishoom existed until now? Visiting London from California, this ended up being…read moreone of the highlights of our trip. It has to be some of the best Indian food I've had outside of India. The little complimentary chai while you wait in line is such a thoughtful touch and really sets the tone. Even though there was a queue, it moved surprisingly quickly. Once inside, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. As for the food... every dish we ordered was outstanding. Rich flavors, perfectly balanced spices, and you can tell a lot of care goes into every plate. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. If you're in London, don't overthink it. Just get in line, enjoy the chai, order what sounds good, and have a fantastic meal. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

A recent addition to the eclectic mix of restaurants in the area, the Bengal Paradise takes over…read morefrom a much loved restaurant in the form of the Villa Rosa which was held close to many locals hearts. Although the Bengal Paradise in its own right is building a string reputation for an ambient, quiet but colourful night of spicy, traditional Indian food. The lighting is a little too sharp, although the seating arrangements are very spacious and comfortable. The food is expensive for the area, drinks especially so although the service and quality of the food are the reason why, and so I would recommend both the food and the atmosphere. Parking and getting a table on the weekends is a tough ask so get in early.

Once…read moreagain we felt like trying somewhere new and ended up trying this place without knowing a thing about it other than it looked ok when we drove past. It was a Friday night and the restaurant was about half full. As we entered, the first thing I noticed was the pleasant decor. It wasn't at all, in your face flashy, it was very reserved. Probably trying to be all things to all people, which can be a hard balancing act. Very friendly staff. Very professional. The menu seemed very consistent with most of the other indian restaurants that I go to. I always keep an eye out for something unusual or unique, but not this time. The food itself was amazing. To me it tasted very fresh. It had slightly different spices than I'm used to. I also noticed that the menu was very slightly cheaper than what I'm used to paying which was a bonus really. I'll definitely return one day and will be sure to recommend to friends.

We found out at the end of our meal that one of the other tables was also from our hotel, a mile walk away. Overall, I think a simple menu done well. We got everything they recommended including the recommended beer from the table next to us. Plain Papadum & Chutney Tray - A must try! Suggestion, these two items should be together on your menu to avoid any confusion on pricing. The sauces also went well with our entree and naan. Tandoori Mix Grill - Good, perfect amount for both of us. As mentioned previously, we are light eaters, especially when traveling. This entree also came with a very light simple salad. Garlic Naan - I can eat this all day! This could even be my meal. After Dinner Chocolates - A nice unexpected touch. Atmosphere - Small local restaurant. Bathrooms need some TLC, but are functional. Indoor/outdoor dining; everyone ate indoors today. Open 7 days a week. Service - Good, had all 3 wait staff help us. This kind of confused us. They were good at upselling, but all 3 team members tried to upsell us. Not in a bad way, but it kept me laughing. I am a light eater, especially when traveling. They all made light small talk which was nice. It was obvious that everyone eating here was NOT local. They also have online promotions, see their website. Price - 28 pounds + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success, I am so glad that you can benefit from Yelp. See you on our next visit as we were so happy with our hotel we plan to stay there again.

The sign said Take Away but down the stairs we found a very cute restaurant. They are going to change the sign! The new Owners took over about 6 weeks ago and have some great ideas. They might add the option of bringing your own wine etc. into the restaurant without the corkage fee. A great idea and we will try that next time around. For now we ordered take away and it was just great. I always have Lamb Korma, Basmati rice and Nan bread with mango sauce. It was excellent,. My old Mum had a chicken curry and it was a big step up from the meals on wheels she is using these days! My husband had a lamb curry and loved it too. We will definitely make Spice King our Indian restaurant when we are in Billericay. Thanks guys and good luck.
