Reviews Overview

Patrons rave about the incredible flavor profiles of the dishes, particularly the chicken tikka masala and pathia, which many describe as the best in the area. The mango chutney, praised for its hint of spice, is a favorite for those seeking that authentic edge to their meal. Portion sizes are generous, offering great value for money for a price range of £10 to £20, and the quality of ingredients shines through in every dish.
Customers appreciate the non-greasy, piping hot curries that suit a variety of tastes and dietary preferences. Many repeat visitors mention the friendliness of the staff, highlighting Mokkid's special touch in making everyone feel welcome, particularly families with children. The convenient takeaway service and late-night offerings further cement Taj Tandoori's status as a beloved local establishment.
Most Disliked
Some diners have noted that the sauces can be thinner than what they are accustomed to, sparking mixed reviews among regulars and first-timers alike. While flavorful, a few mentioned the chicken pieces themselves occasionally being tough. It might not be the best fit for those seeking elaborate dining experiences, as the takeaway vibe can limit the ambiance of a seated meal. There's also the inconvenience of cash payments as card options are not available, although bank transfers are accepted.
Though the menu displays a broad range of dishes, a minority of customers found themselves yearning for more unique local takes on Indian cuisine that they haven't encountered elsewhere. These observations, however, do not detract significantly from the overall enjoyment of the meal, as most customers leave with full bellies and smiles.

The best Indian takeaway in the area! 🤩 We’ve been going here since we moved to St Martins 8 years ago and yet to find an Indian we enjoy as much. Mokkid is a wonderful front of house, knows our order and is always so kind, especially to our little girl who loves the mango chutney which is the best 🤤

First time customer and really enjoyed it. First, positive comments: Both dishes were flavourful. The pathia ticked the boxes and you could taste the spinach in the saag. They didn't come with a layer of oil Mango chutney was nice with a bit of a kick Front of house staff was friendly Next, general observations: Sauces were thinner than we're used to (see above, were good) Chicken was a bit tough All in all a nice meal, I'm looking forward to trying more things from here as the menu has some options I've not seen before. Thank you very much.

Probably the best takeaway curry I've ever had. Non-greasy and piping hot, all of our curries were delicious. Don't be put off by the size of this little takeaway, you won't be disappointed. Yes they don't take cards, but I paid by bank transfer and have saved the payee details for rapid payment next time. Will definitely be back.
